The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the Common Stock’s authorization for quotation on The American Stock Exchange. It shall be an event of default hereunder if the Company fails to strictly comply with its obligation under this Section 4(f).

(i)     Registration Statement. The Company shall be solely responsible for the contents of the registration statement, prospectus or other filing made with the SEC or otherwise used in the offering of the Company’s securities (except as such disclosure relates solely to the Buyer(s) and then only to the extent that such disclosure conforms with information furnished in writing by the Buyer(s) to the Company), even if the Buyer(s) or its/their agents as an accommodation to the Company participate or assist in the preparation of the registration statement, prospectus or other SEC filing. The Company shall retain its own legal counsel to review, edit, confirm and do all things such counsel deems necessary or desirable to the registration statement, prospectus or other SEC filing to ensure that it does not contain an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact or omit or alleged to omit a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements were made, not misleading.

(j)     Corporate Existence. So long as any of the Convertible Debentures remain outstanding, if the Company engages in any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or any similar transaction, the Company shall make appropriate provision with respect to such holders’ rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section 4(i) will thereafter be applicable to the Convertible Debentures.

(k)     Transactions With Affiliates. So long as any Convertible Debentures are outstanding, the Company shall not, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries not to, enter into, amend, modify or supplement, or permit any subsidiary to enter into, amend, modify or supplement any agreement, transaction, commitment, or arrangement with any of its or any subsidiary’s officers, directors, person who were officers or directors at any time during the previous two (2) years, stockholders who beneficially own five percent (5%) or more of the Common Stock, or Affiliates (as defined below) or with any individual related by blood, marriage, or adoption to any such individual or with any entity in which any such entity or individual owns a five percent (5%) or more beneficial interest (each a “Related Party”), except for (a) customary employment arrangements and benefit programs on reasonable terms, (b) any investment in an Affiliate of the Company, (c) any agreement, transaction, commitment, or arrangement on an arms-length basis on terms no less favorable than terms which would have been obtainable from a person other than such Related Party, or (d) any agreement, transaction, commitment, or arrangement which is approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company. For purposes hereof, any director who is also an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall not be a disinterested director with respect to any agreement, transaction, commitment, or arrangement. “Affiliate” for purposes hereof means, with respect to any person or entity, another person or entity that, directly or indirectly, (i) has a ten percent (10%) or more equity interest in that person or entity, (ii) has ten percent (10%) or more common ownership with that person or entity, (iii) controls that person or entity, or (iv) shares common control with that person or entity. “Control” or “controls” for purposes hereof means that a person or entity has the power, direct or indirect, to conduct or govern the policies of another person or entity.

(l)     Transfer Agent. The Company covenants and agrees that, in the event that the Company’s agency relationship with the transfer agent should be terminated for any reason prior to a date which is two (2) years after the Closing Date, the Company shall immediately appoint a new transfer agent and shall require that the new transfer agent execute and agree to be bound by the terms of the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions (as defined herein).

(m)    Restriction on Issuance of the Capital Stock. So long as any Convertible Debentures or the Warrants are outstanding, other than securities issued in connection with the SEDA, and other than securities issued pursuant to options, warrants or convertible securities outstanding on the date hereof or otherwise issued in accordance with the terms hereof, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Buyer(s), (i) issue or sell shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Closing Bid Price of the Common Stock determined immediately prior to its issuance, (ii) issue any warrant, option, right, contract, call, or other security instrument granting the holder thereof, the right to acquire Common Stock without consideration or for a consideration less than such Common Stock’s Closing Bid Price value determined immediately prior to its issuance, (iii) enter into any security instrument granting the holder a security interest in any and all assets of the Company, or (iv) file any registration statement on Form S-8 except to register up to 5,000,000 shares of the Common Stock to be issued under a stock option plan providing for the issuance of incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options to the Company’s non-executive employees, provided that (x) such shares are not issued without consideration or for a consideration less than the Common Stock’s closing Bid Price on the date of issuance or the date on which the obligation to issue any such shares of capital stock first arose, and (y) such Form S-8 registration statement is not filed prior to 90 days following the effectiveness of the registration statement. “Closing Bid Price” on any day shall be the closing bid price for a share of Common Stock on such date on the American Stock Exchange (or such other exchange, market, or other system that the Common Stock is then traded on), as reported on Bloomberg, L.P. (or similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices).

(n)     Resales Absent Effective Registration Statement. Each of the Buyers understand and acknowledge that (i) this Agreement and the agreements contemplated hereby may require the Company to issue and deliver Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares to the Buyer(s) with legend restricting their transferability under the Securities Act, and (ii) it is aware that resales of such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares may not be made unless, at the time of resale, there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering such Buyer’s resale(s) or an applicable exemption from registration.

(o)     Legend. Certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth above), (A) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act (provided, however, that each Buyer’s prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act will remain applicable), or (B) following any sale of such Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (C) if such Convertible Debentures, Warrants, Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (D) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of the SEC). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent promptly after the effective date of any registration statement (the “Effective Date”) if required by the Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this clause (ii), it will, no later than three trading days following the delivery by the Buyer(s) to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Buyer a certificate representing such Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge(s) the restrictions on transfer set forth herein.

(p)     Pledge. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Buyer(s) may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Convertible Debentures, Warrants, Warrant Shares and /or Conversion Shares to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, the Buyer(s) may transfer pledged or secured Convertible Debentures, Warrants, Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At Buyer’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Convertible Debentures, Warrants, Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Convertible Debentures, Warrants, Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares, including the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling stockholders thereunder.

(q)     Removal of Legend. Provided that all conditions to the removal of the applicable restrictive legend have been satisfied, in addition to the Buyer(s)’ other available remedies, the Company shall pay to the Buyer(s), in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares (based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the date such Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares are submitted to the Company’s transfer agent), $5 per trading day (increasing to $10 per trading day five (5) trading days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each trading day after the tenth (10th) trading day following delivery by a Buyer to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Warrant Shares and/or Conversion Shares issued with a restrictive legend, until such certificate is delivered to the Buyer(s) with such legend removed. Nothing herein shall limit the Buyer’s right to pursue actual damages for the failure of the Company and its transfer agent to deliver certificates representing any securities as required hereby or by the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, and the Buyer(s) shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

(r)     Press Release. In addition to any and all other public statements or disclosures made by the Company in its sole discretion (subject to the last sentence of this Section 3(r), the Company will issue a press release and file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC regarding the Closing of the purchase and sale of the Convertible Debentures and Warrants on the date of the Closing or such later date as required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the names of the Buyer(s), or include the names of the Buyer(s) in any filing with the SEC, without the prior written consent of the Buyer(s), except (i) as required by federal securities law and (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Buyer(s) with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under subclause (i) or (ii). Furthermore, the Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf will provide the Buyer(s) or its/their agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto the Buyer(s) shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that the Buyer(s) shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

(s)     Stock Splits, Etc. The provisions of this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock divided, reverse stock split, reorganization or other similar event effected after the date hereof.

(t)     No Short Position. Each of the Buyers and any of its affiliates do not have an open short position in the Common Stock, and each Buyer agrees that it will not, and that it will cause its affiliates not to, engage in any short sales of, or hedging transactions with respect to the Common Stock until such Buyer no longer owns a principal balance of the Convertible Debentures.

5.     TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

The Company shall issue the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to its transfer agent irrevocably appointing Gottbetter & Partners, LLP as its agent for purpose of having certificates issued, registered in the name of the Buyer(s) or their respective nominee(s), for the Conversion Shares representing such amounts of Convertible Debentures as specified from time to time by the Buyer(s) to the Company upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures, for interest owed pursuant to the Convertible Debenture, and for any and all Liquidated Damages (as this term is defined in the Investor Registration Rights Agreement). Gottbetter & Partners, LLP shall be paid a cash fee of One Hundred Fifty Dollars ($150) by the Buyer(s) or its/their assigns for every occasion they act pursuant to the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall not change its transfer agent without the express written consent of the Buyer(s), which may be withheld by the Buyer(s) in their sole discretion. The successor transfer agent shall be required to execute the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions. Prior to registration of the Conversion Shares under the Securities Act, all such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend specified in Section 2(g) of this Agreement. The Company warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5, and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(g) hereof (in the case of the Conversion Shares prior to registration of such shares under the Securities Act) will be given by the Company to its transfer agent and that the Conversion Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the Investor Registration Rights Agreement. Nothing in this Section 5 shall affect in any way the Buyer’s obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities laws upon resale of Conversion Shares. If the Buyer(s) provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, scope and substance customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions to the effect that registration of a resale by the Buyer(s) of any of the Conversion Shares is not required under the Securities Act, and absent manifest error in such opinion, the Company shall within two (2) business days instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by the Buyer(s). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Buyer(s) by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5, that the Buyer(s) shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

6.     LIMITATION ON CONVERSION.

(a)     Buyer’s Ownership of Common Stock. In addition to and not in lieu of the limitations on conversion set forth in the Convertible Debentures, the conversion rights of the Buyer(s) set forth in the Convertible Debentures shall be limited, solely to the extent required, from time to time, such that, unless the Buyer(s) gives written notice 65 days in advance to the Company of the Buyer’s intention to exceed the Limitation on Conversion as defined herein, with respect to all or a specified amount of the Convertible Debentures and the corresponding number of the Conversion Shares in no instance the Buyer (singularly, together with any Persons who in the determination of the Buyer, together with the Buyer, constitute a group as defined in Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) be entitled to convert the Convertible Debentures to the extent such conversion would result in the Buyer beneficially owning four point nine nine percent (4.99%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. For these purposes, beneficial ownership shall be defined and calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3, promulgated under the Exchange Act (the foregoing being herein referred to as the “Limitation on Conversion”); provided, however, that the Limitation on Conversion shall not apply to any forced or automatic conversion pursuant to this Agreement or the Convertible Debentures; and provided, further that if the Company shall have breached any of the Transaction Documents, the provisions of this Section 6(a) shall be null and void from and after such date. The Company shall, promptly upon its receipt of a Conversion Notice tendered by the Buyer (or its sole designee) for the Convertible Debentures, as applicable, notify the Buyer(s) by telephone and by facsimile (the “Limitation Notice”) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date and the number of Conversion Shares, which would be issuable to the Buyer (or its sole designee, as the case may be) if the conversion requested in such Conversion Notice were effected in full and the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding giving full effect to such conversion whereupon, in accordance with the Convertible Debentures, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Convertible Debentures, the Buyer may, by notice to the Company within one (1) business day of its receipt of the Limitation Notice by facsimile, revoke such conversion to the extent (in whole or in part) that the Buyer determines that such conversion would result in the ownership by the Buyer of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Limitation on Conversion. The Limitation Notice shall begin the 65 day advance notice required in this Section 6(a).

In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Buyer(s) and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Agreement. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agree to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
