Interest which has accrued on the Existing Notes but which is unpaid through the Closing Date shall be added to the principal amount of the Existing Notes for purposes of determining the principal amount of Amended Notes to be issued to each respective Noteholder.

ARTICLE III

MATURITY AND PREPAYMENT OF NEW NOTES

3.1 Maturity of Amended Notes

The Amended Notes shall mature and be repayable in full on the New Maturity Date. If the Company consummates a Qualifying Transaction on or prior to May 31, 2009, the Amended Notes shall be repaid out of the proceeds of the Qualified Transaction. With respect to each Amended Note, no late fees or penalties will be assessed on the Company for the period from the

-11-

Closing to the New Maturity Date solely by reason of the non-payment of the Existing Notes on the original maturity date thereof.

3.2 Optional Prepayment of Amended Notes

(a) The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Amended Notes, in an amount of not less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Amended Notes then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment. The Company will give each holder of Amended Notes written notice (a “Prepayment Notice”) of each optional prepayment under this Section 3.2 not less than five Business Days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date fixed for prepayment, the aggregate principal amount of the Amended Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Amended Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with subsection (b)), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid.

(b) In the case of each partial prepayment of the Amended Notes pursuant to this Section 3.2, the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated pro rata among all of the holders of Amended Notes at the time outstanding in accordance with the unpaid principal amount thereof.

(c) In the case of each prepayment of Amended Notes pursuant to this Section 3.2, the principal amount of each Amended Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Amended Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Amended Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Amended Note.

3.3 No Repurchase, Etc. of Amended Notes

The Company will not and will not permit any Subsidiary or Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any part or portion of the outstanding Amended Notes, except upon the repayment at the New Maturity Date or upon prepayment in accordance with Section 3.2.

3.4 Note Conversion, New Warrants not Affected by Repayment

(a) If the New Warrants become exercisable pursuant to the terms thereof, the New Warrants and any shares of Common Stock issued or required to be issued pursuant to exercise thereof, shall not be affected by any payment or repayment of the Amended Notes and shall remain outstanding and exercisable in accordance with the terms of such New Warrants.

(b) If the Amended Notes become convertible pursuant to Section 4.1, any Common Stock issued or required to be issued pursuant to any Conversion Notice transmitted to the Company prior to payment or repayment of the Amended Notes shall not be affected by any such

-12-

payment or repayment and shall remain issuable in accordance with the terms of ARTICLE IV hereof.

ARTICLE IV

CONVERSION OF NEW NOTES

4.1 Conversion at the Option of the Securities Holder

Subject to the further provisions of this ARTICLE IV, in the event that by May 31, 2009 both (i) a Qualified Transaction has not been consummated and (ii) the Company has not prepaid the Amended Notes in full pursuant to Section 3.2, at any time or times thereafter, a Noteholder may convert the outstanding principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest (the “Conversion Amount”) of any Amended Notes (or any portion thereof) into such number (rounded to the nearest whole number) of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion price per share equal to $0.20 (as such conversion price may be adjusted from time to time pursuant hereto, the “Conversion Price”). The provisions of this Agreement that apply to the conversion of all of an Amended Note shall also apply to the conversion of a portion of an Amended Note. A Noteholder is not entitled to any rights of a holder of Common Stock until such Noteholder has converted its Amended Notes to Common Stock in compliance with the procedures set forth in this ARTICLE IV, and only to the extent such Amended Notes are deemed to have been converted into Common Stock pursuant to this ARTICLE IV.

4.2 Conversion Procedure

(a) Procedure

To convert an Amended Note (or portion thereof) into shares of Common Stock, a Noteholder must (i) complete and manually sign the conversion notice on the back of the Amended Note (the “Conversion Notice”) and transmit by facsimile (or otherwise deliver) such Conversion Notice to the Company, (ii) surrender the Amended Note to be converted to the Company or its designee (or deliver an indemnification undertaking with respect to such Amended Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction), (iii) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Company, and (iv) pay any transfer or similar tax payable by the Noteholder pursuant to Section 4.3, if required, and provide evidence of such payment to the Company. Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected as to any Amended Note (or portion thereof) on the date on which the requirements set forth in this Section 4.2 have been satisfied as to any such Amended Note (or portion thereof) (the “Conversion Date”). As soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, but in no event later than five Business Days following such Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Due Date”) the Company shall execute and deliver, to the address specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the converting Noteholder or its designee, for the number of whole shares of Common Stock to which such Noteholder shall be entitled.

-13-

(b) Date Shares Held

The Person or Persons entitled to receive Common Stock upon conversion of the Amended Notes as set forth in this Agreement shall be treated for all purposes as the holder or holders of such Common Stock, as of the close of business on the applicable Conversion Date; provided, however, that no surrender of an Amended Note on any date when the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed shall be effective to constitute the Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock upon such conversion as the holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on such date, but such surrender shall be effective to constitute the Person or Persons entitled to receive such shares of Common Stock as the holder or holders thereof for all purposes at the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open; provided further that such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the applicable Conversion Date as if the stock transfer books of the Company had not been closed.

Upon surrender of an Amended Note that is converted in part, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Noteholder a replacement Amended Note equal in principal amount to the unconverted portion of the Amended Note surrendered. Upon conversion in full of an Amended Note, such Amended Note shall be terminated.

4.3 Taxes on Conversion

If a Noteholder converts an Amended Note, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares of Common Stock upon such conversion. However, the Noteholder shall pay any such tax which is due because the Noteholder requests the securities to be issued in a name other than the Noteholder’s name.

4.4 Company to Reserve Stock; Related Covenants

(a) Reservation of Shares

So long as any Amended Notes are outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Amended Notes, the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of all of the outstanding Amended Notes (without regard to any limitations on conversions) (the “Required Reserve Amount”). The initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for conversions of the Amended Notes and each increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the Noteholders based on the unpaid principal amount of the Amended Notes held by each Noteholder on the Closing Date or the date of increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that a Noteholder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Noteholder’s interests in any Amended Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Noteholder’s Authorized Share Allocation.

-14-

(b) Insufficient Authorized Shares

If at any time while any of the Amended Notes remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Amended Notes at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the outstanding Amended Notes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than 60 days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall call a meeting of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its Board of Directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal.

All shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Amended Notes shall be newly issued shares, shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim with respect to the issue thereof.

(d) Compliance with Applicable Laws; Additional Listing Application

The Company will comply with all federal and state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Amended Notes, if any, and if the shares of Common Stock are listed on a United States national securities exchange or other trading market, if permitted by the rules of such exchange or market, will list or cause to have quoted such shares of Common Stock on each national securities exchange or other trading market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted, if any.

4.5 Adjustment of Conversion Price

The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows:

(a) Dividends; Distributions; Subdivisions; Combinations

In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (iii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iv) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the holder of any Amended Note thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive that number of shares of Common Stock which it would have owned had such Amended Note been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after

-15-

the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of subdivision or combination. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this paragraph is declared but not so paid or made, or the outstanding shares of Common Stock are not subdivided or combined, as the case may be, the Conversion Price shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, or split or combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination had not been declared.

(b) Issuances Below Issue Date Closing Price; Issuances Below Conversion Price

If, during the period commencing on November 26, 2008 and ending on May 31, 2011, the Company shall issue or sell, or is deemed to have issued or sold, Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock for a consideration per share of Common Stock:


	(i) at a price per share (or having a conversion, exercise or exchange price per share) less than the initial Conversion Price (subject to adjustment for stock splits, combinations, dividends and other customary adjustments), or

	(ii) at a price per share (or having a conversion, exercise or exchange price per share) less than the then current Conversion Price (subject to adjustment for stock splits, combinations, dividends and other customary adjustments),

then the Conversion Price then in effect shall be adjusted to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing:


	(x)	an amount equal to the sum of (a) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale (assuming conversion into Common Stock at the then effective conversion rate for the applicable series) multiplied by the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance plus (b) the aggregate consideration received by the Company upon such issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale, by

	(y)	the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale (assuming conversion into Common Stock at the then effective Conversion Price for the applicable series) plus the number of shares of Common Stock actually sold or issued (or deemed to be sold or issued) in the transaction which resulted in the adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.5(b).

If the purchase price provided for in any equity-linked securities, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exchange or exercise of any equity linked securities, or the rate at which any equity-linked securities are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock changes at any time, the Conversion Price in

-16-

effect at the time of such change shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such equity-linked securities provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or changed conversion, exchange or exercise rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this paragraph, if the terms of any equity-linked security that was outstanding as of the date of the Closing are changed in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such equity-linked security and the Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such change.

(d) Limitations & Interpretations


	(i) For purposes of this Section 4.5, if the consideration relating to the issuance or payable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of a security into or for Common Stock consists in whole or in part of property other than cash, the portion of the non-cash consideration shall be computed as the Fair Market Value of such property, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

	(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment to be made pursuant to this Section 4.5 shall be made on a weighted average rather than a “full-ratchet” basis to give effect to the size and price of the capital stock issued that gives or is to give rise to the anti-dilution protection intended by this Section 4.5.

	(iii) Any adjustment required by this Section 4.5 shall be made successively whenever any Common Stock, securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or other equity-linked security is issued, and shall become effective immediately after the applicable record date. If at the end of the period during which any such securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or other equity-linked security is exercisable not all such securities shall have been exercised, the adjusted Conversion Price shall be immediately readjusted to what it would have been based upon the number of additional shares of Common Stock actually issued (or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of convertible securities or warrants actually issued).

	(iv) Except as provided in the previous sentence, if the application of this Section 4.5 shall result in an increase in the Conversion Price, no adjustment shall be made for such issuances of Common Stock, securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or other equity or equity-linked securities.

	(v) No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 4.5 in connection with issuances or sales by the Company of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock that constitute grants of Permitted Management Stock Options permitted by Section 8.14(b)(iii) or Section 8.14(c)(i).

	(e) Distributions of Capital Stock, Indebtedness or Other Non-Cash Assets

In the event that the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any cash, shares of capital stock of the Company (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness or other assets (including securities of any Person other than the Company but

-17-

excluding dividends or distributions referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 4.5), or shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding (i) the New Warrants, and (ii) those rights and warrants referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 4.5), then in each such case provision shall be made so that the Noteholders shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of cash, securities, evidences of indebtedness, rights, warrants and other assets that the Noteholders would have received had their Amended Notes been converted into Common Stock on the record date for such event and had thereafter, during the period from such record date to and including the applicable Conversion Date, retained such cash, securities, evidences of indebtedness, rights, warrants and other assets receivable by them as aforesaid.

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS OF EACH NOTEHOLDER

Each Noteholder severally (as to itself only and not with respect to any other Noteholder) represents and warrants to the Company as follows, solely for establishing that the offer, sale and issuance of the Amended Notes and New Warrants being acquired by such Noteholder pursuant to this Agreement are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the comparable provisions of state securities laws and not in any way to mitigate the responsibility or liability of the Company for any breach of the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement, on which such Noteholder is relying in full in connection with its, his or her decision to invest in the Company:

6.1 Investment Representations

(a) Such Noteholder is acquiring the Amended Notes and New Warrants to be acquired by it, him or her under this Agreement for its, his or her own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws.

(b) Such Noteholder understands that the Amended Notes and New Warrants to be issued to such Noteholder will not be registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Act and Regulation D or applicable state securities laws by reason of their issuance by the Company in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of applicable state securities laws.

(c) Such Noteholder has had the opportunity to ask questions of the Company’s officers and directors about the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms and conditions of the Amended Notes and New Warrants that will be provided to such Noteholder pursuant to this Agreement, as well as the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and understands that its, his or her investment in the Amended Notes being invested in by it, him or her pursuant to this Agreement, are speculative investments which involve a high degree of risk of loss of the entire investment therein; and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it, he or she is capable of evaluating the risks and merits of its, his or her investment in such notes; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to derogate or otherwise limit the representations, warranties and covenants of the Company contained in the Transaction Documents to which the Company is a party, or such Noteholder’s reliance thereon.

(d) Such Noteholder is one of the following: (i) an individual with net worth (or joint net worth together with his or her spouse) in excess of $1,000,000 (which net worth includes the value of home, furnishings and automobiles); (ii) an individual with individual income (exclusive of any income attributable to his or her spouse) in excess of $200,000 in each of

-26-

calendar years 2006 and 2007 and expects an individual income in excess of $200,000 for calendar year 2008, or has had, together with his or her spouse, joint income in excess of $300,000 in each of the calendar years 2006 and 2007 and expects a joint income in excess of $300,000 for calendar year 2008; or otherwise qualifies as an “accredited investor” as defined for purposes of Regulation D, which has been adopted by the SEC under the Securities Act.

6.2 Restricted Securities

(a) Such Noteholder understands and agrees that the Amended Notes and the New Warrants will constitute “restricted securities” under the Securities Laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that, consequently, the Notes may not be resold without first being registered under the Securities Laws, except in certain limited circumstances. Specifically, such Noteholder is familiar with SEC Rule 144 and understands, and agrees to comply with, the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Laws generally.

(b) Each Noteholder understands and agrees that the certificates issued to such Noteholder representing the Amended Notes and the New Warrants will bear the following legend:


	“These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) or under any state securities laws and have been issued and sold in reliance upon an exemption from registration under the Act. These securities may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred in the absence of an effective registration statement under the Act or an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the issuer of these securities, to the effect that such a registration statement is unnecessary in respect of a particular sale, offer, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer.”

	The foregoing legend will be removed from a certificate at the request of such Noteholder (or the request of any person to whom any such Noteholder has transferred shares in conformity with this Agreement) in connection with the proposed transfer of Amended Notes or New Warrants only upon either the effectiveness of such a registration statement or receipt by the Company of an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration under the Act is unnecessary in respect of the proposed transfer, in reliance upon SEC Rule 144 under the Act, and that such legend is not required by law to appear on the certificate.

6.3 Trading Restriction

Each Noteholder hereby acknowledges that it is aware that the reports referenced in Section 8.1(a) may contain material non-public information and that the United States securities laws prohibit any person who has received material, non-public information related to the Company from purchasing or selling securities of or related to the Company.

If any Entity is required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of US Taxes from any payment made hereunder, such Entity will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by the Securities Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount the Securities Holder would have received if such US Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to a payment made hereunder with respect to any US Taxes which would not have been imposed, payable or due:


	(i) but for the fact that the Securities Holder is or was a domiciliary, national or resident of, or engages or engaged in business, maintains or maintained a permanent establishment or is or was physically present in the United States, or otherwise has some present or former connection with the United States other than the mere holding or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or the receipt of principal or interest in respect thereof;

	(ii) but for the failure of the Securities Holder to comply with a request by the Entity to satisfy any certification, identification or other reporting requirements which the Securities Holder is legally entitled to satisfy, whether imposed by statute, treaty, regulation, administrative practice or otherwise, concerning the nationality, residence or connection with the United States of the Securities Holder.

(b) The obligation of the Entities to pay Additional Amounts in respect of US Taxes shall not apply with respect to (i) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, personal property or any similar Tax or (ii) any Tax which is payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments made under or with respect to the Transaction Documents.


	(i) make any required withholding or deduction;

	(ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority (the “Taxing Authority”) in accordance with applicable law;

Each party hereto shall have and retain all rights and remedies existing in its favor at law or in equity, including, without limitation, any actions for specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief (including, without limitation, the remedy of rescission) to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company hereby agrees that in the event the Company fails to convey any Notes to a Noteholder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, such Noteholders’ remedy at law may be inadequate. In such event, such Noteholder shall have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies it may have, to specific performance of the obligations of the Company to convey Notes to it.

11.14 Severability

It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any particular provision of this Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable for any reason, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
