Section 2.01 Advances; Mechanics. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein, the Company, at its sole and exclusive option, may, from time to time, issue and sell to the Investor, and the Investor shall purchase from the Company, shares of Common Stock on the following terms:

(a)

Advance Notice. At any time during the Commitment Period, the Company may require the Investor to purchase shares of Common Stock by delivering an Advance Notice to the Investor, subject to the conditions set forth in Article VII; provided, however, that (i) the amount for each Advance as designated by the Company in the applicable Advance Notice shall not be more than the Maximum Advance Amount, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Advances pursuant to this Agreement shall not exceed the Commitment Amount, (iii) in no event shall the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Investor pursuant to an Advance cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) by the Investor and its affiliates to exceed 4.99% of the then outstanding Common Stock (the “Ownership Limitation”) and (iv) in no event shall the aggregate offering price or number of Shares, as the case may be, exceed the aggregate offering price or number of Shares, as the case may be, available for issuance under the Registration Statement (the “Registration Limitation”). The Company acknowledges that the Investor may sell shares of the Company’s Common Stock corresponding with a particular Advance Notice after the Advance Notice is received by the Investor so long as such sale complies with all applicable laws.

(b)

Date of Delivery of Advance Notice. Advance Notices shall be delivered in accordance with the instructions set forth on the bottom of Exhibit A or such other instructions that the Investor may provide to the Company. An Advance Notice shall be deemed delivered on (i) the Trading Day it is received by electronic mail (“Email”), facsimile or otherwise by the Investor if such notice is received prior to 5:00 pm Eastern Time, or (ii) the immediately succeeding Trading Day if it is received by Email, facsimile or otherwise after 5:00 pm Eastern Time on a Trading Day or at any time on a day which is not a Trading Day. No Advance Notice may be deemed delivered on a day that is not a Trading Day. The Company acknowledges and agrees that Investor shall be entitled to treat any email it receives from officers whose email addresses are identified by the Company purporting to be an Advance Notice as a duly executed and authorized Advance Notice from the Company. The Investor shall promptly confirm the receipt of any Advance Notice delivered via email after such email is opened by replying to the sender of such email. Any Advance Notice delivered by email shall be deemed received by the Investor only after the Investor has sent such reply confirming receipt.

(c)

Ownership Limitation. In connection with each Advance Notice delivered by the Company, any portion of an Advance that would cause the Investor to exceed the Ownership Limitation shall automatically be withdrawn.

(d)

Registration Limitation. In connection with each Advance Notice, any portion of an Advance that would cause the aggregate offering price or number of Shares, as the case may be, to exceed the Registration Limitation shall automatically be deemed to be withdrawn by the Company with no further action required by the Company. At the Company’s request from time to time, the Investor shall report to the Company the total amount of Shares offered and sold pursuant to this Agreement and the portion of the total Commitment Amount remaining.

(e)

Minimum Acceptable Price. In connection with each Advance Notice, the Company may indicate a minimum acceptable price (the “Minimum Acceptable Price”). Upon the issuance by the Company of an Advance Notice with a Minimum Acceptable Price, (i) the amount of the Advance set forth in such Advance Notice shall automatically be reduced by 33.33% for each Trading Day during the Pricing Period that the VWAP of the Common Stock is below the Minimum Acceptable Price (each such day, an “Excluded Day”), and (ii) each Excluded Day shall be excluded from the Pricing Period solely for purposes of determining the Market Price. The number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered to the Investor at the Closing (in accordance with Section 2.02 of this Agreement) shall correspond with the Advance Notice amount as reduced pursuant to clause (i) above, except that, subject to Section 2.01(c) and Section 2.01(d), the Company shall be obligated to sell, and the Investor shall be obligated to purchase, up to that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the amount of any such reduction divided by such Minimum Acceptable Price corresponding to such Advance Notice that have been sold by the Investor on an Excluded Day at a price equal to such Minimum Acceptable Price and this exception shall not affect the calculation of the Purchase Price for the Trading Days in the Pricing Period that are not Excluded Days.

Section 2.02 Closings. The closing of each Advance with respect to each Pricing Period shall take place on each Advance Settlement Date in accordance with the following procedures:

(a)

By 10:30 am on the Trading Day immediately following each Pricing Period the Investor shall deliver to the Company a written document (each a “Settlement Document”) setting forth the amount of the Advance (taking into account any adjustments pursuant to Section 2.01(c), Section 2.01(d), or Section 2.01(e)), the Net Advance Amount, the Purchase Price, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued and subscribed for (which in no event will be greater than the Ownership Limitation)), and a report by Bloomberg, LP indicating the VWAP for each of the Trading Days during the Pricing Period, in each case taking into account the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Settlement Document shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B and shall be delivered in accordance with the instructions set forth on the top of Exhibit B or such other instructions that the Company may provide to the Investor.

(b)

On each Advance Settlement Date the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer such number of shares of Common Stock registered in the name of the Investor as shall equal the sum of (a) the result obtained by dividing (x) the amount of the Advance specified in such Advance Notice (as may be reduced according to the terms of this Agreement), by (y) the Purchase Price and (b) that number of additional shares of Common Stock purchased on Excluded Days pursuant to Section 2.01(e), by crediting the Investor’s account or its designee’s account at the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto (which in all cases shall be freely tradable, registered shares in good deliverable form) against payment of the Net Advance Amount in same day funds to an account designated by the Company. No fractional shares shall be issued, and any fractional amounts shall be rounded to the next higher whole number of shares. Any certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock delivered pursuant hereto shall be free of restrictive legends.

(c)

On each Advance Settlement Date, upon receipt of the Shares related to such Advance, the Investor will pay the Commission (on behalf of the Company) to the Placement Agent in same day funds to an account designated by the Placement Agent.

Section 2.03 Hardship. If the Company defaults in its obligations to deliver the Shares (which in all cases shall be freely tradable, registered shares in good deliverable form) on the Advance Settlement Date, the Company agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Article V hereto and in addition to any other remedy to which the Investor is entitled at law or in equity, including, without limitation, specific performance, it will hold the Investor harmless against any direct (and not consequential) loss, claim, damage, or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company and acknowledges that irreparable damage would occur in the event of any such default. It is accordingly agreed that the Investor shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent such breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce, without the posting of a bond or other security, the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 2.04 Promissory Notes. After the first Advance Settlement Date under this Agreement and thereafter during the Commitment Period, the Company may at any time and from time to time request the Investor to purchase promissory notes (each, a “Note”) issued by the Company with a principal amount of up to $10,000,000. After considering each request in good faith, the Investor in its sole discretion, will decide whether or not to purchase such Notes. Any such Notes purchased by the Investor will be on terms mutually acceptable to both the Company and the Investor and may include a provision that the Notes be repaid with the proceeds of Advances delivered pursuant to this Agreement.

Article V. Indemnification

The Investor and the Company covenant to the other the following with respect to itself:

Section 5.01 Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and the Investor’s affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents and each person who controls the Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Shares as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in the Prospectus, or in any Prospectus Supplement, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, subject to Section 5.03, agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor specifically for inclusion therein. Anything in this paragraph to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action effected without its consent.

Section 5.02 Indemnification by the Investor. The Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity to the Investor, but only with reference to written information relating to such Investor furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity.

Section 5.03 Notice of Claim. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Article V of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Article V, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from liability under Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 above unless and to the extent the indemnifying party did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses or otherwise results in a material impairment of the indemnifying party’s ability to defend. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 5.01 above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 5.02 above, counsel to the indemnified parities shall be selected by the Investor. An indemnified party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party if the indemnified party shall have concluded, based upon the written opinion of counsel, that a conflict may exist in the representation of both the indemnifying and indemnified parties. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought under this Agreement (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless (i) such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) such settlement, compromise or consent does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

Section 5.04 Contribution. In the event that the indemnity provided in Section 5.01, Section 5.02 or Section 5.03 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company and the Investor severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending the same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company and the Investor may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Investor on the other from transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company and the Investor severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Investor on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total proceeds from the offering (net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Investor shall be deemed to be equal to the total discounts received by the Investor. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company on the one hand or the Investor on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Investor agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Article V shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.04, the Investor shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the Purchase Price for Shares actually purchased pursuant to this Agreement exceeds the amount of any damages which the Investor has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Article V, each person who controls the Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of the Investor shall have the same rights to contribution as the Investor, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each trustee, officer, employee and agent of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this Section 5.04.

Section 5.05 Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Article V are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified person at law or in equity. The obligations of the parties to indemnify or make contribution under this Article V shall survive termination.
