The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary except for any jurisdiction(s) (alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so qualified will not have a Material Adverse Effect. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on the business, operations, properties, prospects, or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined below) on the transactions contemplated hereby or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or any condition, circumstance, or situation that would prohibit or otherwise materially interfere with the ability of the Company to perform any of its obligations under this Transaction Documents (defined below) in any material respect.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and no further consent or authorization of the Company, its Board of Directors or stockholders is required. When executed and delivered by the Company, each of the Transaction Documents shall constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

          c. Capitalization. The issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company as of the Closing Date is as set forth on Schedule (II)(1)(c). All of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock and any other outstanding security of the Company have been duly and validly authorized. Except for the Securities, or as disclosed in Schedule (II)(1)(c) attached hereto:

For the purposes of this Agreement, “subsidiary” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which at least a majority of the securities or other ownership interest having ordinary voting power (absolutely or contingently) for the election of directors or other persons performing similar functions are at the time owned directly or indirectly by the Company and/or any of its other Subsidiaries. Each Subsidiary is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, and has all requisite entity power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. Each Subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

          e. Securities Filings. The Common Stock of the Company is currently reported on the OTC Bulletin Board and is registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the Commission pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act (all of the foregoing, including filings incorporated by reference therein, being referred to herein as the “Commission Documents”). As of their respective dates, the Commission Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, and such filings when made by the Company do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of the Company included in the Commission Documents comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission (defined below) with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”), except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP and remain subject to year end adjustments, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments.

          f. Actions Pending. There is no action, suit, claim, investigation, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution proceeding or other proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or involving the Company or any of its respective properties or assets, other than demands and threats made by the prior owners of USVD, notice of which Vicis hereby acknowledges being made aware of. There are no outstanding orders, judgments, injunctions, awards or decrees of any court, arbitrator, governmental or regulatory body, or a self regulatory authority or trading market against the Company or any officers or directors of the Company in their capacities as such. To the Company’s knowledge, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor any director or executive officer thereof (in his/her capacity as such), is or, within the last five years, has been the subject of any action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty. To the knowledge of the Company, there has not been, and there is not pending or threatened in writing, any investigation by the United States Securities and

Commission (the “Commission” or “SEC”) involving the Company or any current director or executive officer of the Company. The Commission has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act.

          g. Compliance with Law. The business of the Company and the Subsidiaries has been and is presently being conducted in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local governmental laws, rules, regulations and ordinances (including, without limitation, rules and regulations of each governmental and regulatory agency, self regulatory organization and trading market applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary).

          h. Taxes. The Company has accurately prepared and filed all federal, state and other tax returns required by law to be filed by it, has paid or made provisions for the payment of all taxes shown to be due and all additional assessments, and adequate provisions have been and are reflected in the financial statements of the Company for all current taxes and other charges to which the Company is subject and which are not currently due and payable. None of the federal income tax returns of the Company or any Subsidiary have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company has no knowledge of any additional assessments, adjustments or contingent tax liability (whether federal or state) of any nature whatsoever, whether pending or threatened against the Company for any period, nor of any basis for any such assessment, adjustment or contingency.

          i. Employees. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any collective bargaining arrangements or agreements covering any of its employees. Except as set forth in Schedule II(1)(i), no Executive Officer of the Company (as defined in Rule 501(f) of the Securities Act) has notified the Company that such officer intends to leave the Company or otherwise terminate such officer’s employment with the Company. No Executive Officer of the Company, to the knowledge of the Company, is, or is now, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and, to the actual knowledge of the Company, the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any Subsidiary to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and each Subsidiary are in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          j. Public Utility Holding Company Act and Investment Company Act Status. The Company is not a “holding company” or a “public utility company” as such terms are defined in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended. The Company is not, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Securities will not be, an “investment company,” an “affiliated person” of, “promoter” for or “principal underwriter” for, or an entity “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.

          k. ERISA. No liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation has been incurred with respect to any Plan by the Company which has not been satisfied by the Company. As used in this section, the term “Plan” shall mean an “employee pension benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA) which is or has been established or maintained, or to which contributions are or have been made, by the Company or any Subsidiary or by any trade or business, whether or not incorporated, which, together with the Company or any Subsidiary, is under common control, as described in Section 2(b)14(b) or (c) of the Code.

          l. Securities Act of 1933. Based in material part upon the representations herein of Vicis, the Company has complied and will comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws in connection with the offer, issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties in Article IV hereof (and assuming no change in applicable law and no unlawful distribution of the Securities by Vicis or other Persons), no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to Vicis as is contemplated hereby. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf, directly or indirectly, has or will sell, offer to sell or solicit offers to buy any of the Securities or similar securities to, or solicit offers with respect thereto from, or enter into any negotiations relating thereto with, any person, or has taken or will take any action so as to (i) bring the issuance and sale of any of the Securities under the registration provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or (b) or (ii) trigger shareholder approval provisions under the rules or regulations of any trading market., and neither the Company nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) in connection with the offer or sale of any of the Securities.

          m. No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would cause the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act, which would prevent the Company from selling the Securities pursuant to Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof under the Securities Act, or any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval provisions, nor will the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries take any action or steps that would cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings.

          n. Issuance of Securities. The Securities to be issued at the Closing have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and, when paid for or issued in accordance with the terms hereof, the Securities shall be validly issued and outstanding, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and rights of refusal of any kind. When the Conversion Shares are issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such shares will be duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and rights of refusal of any kind and the holders shall be entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of such security.

          o. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company, and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and the issuance of the Securities as contemplated hereby, do not and will not (i) violate or conflict with any provision of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) or Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), each as amended to date, or any Subsidiary’s comparable charter documents; (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries’ respective properties or assets are bound; or (iii) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations and rules and regulations of any governmental or any regulatory agency, self-regulatory organization, or trading market) applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are bound or affected, except, in all cases, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect (other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) (with respect to federal and state securities laws)). Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is required under federal, state, foreign or local law, rule or regulation to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under the Transaction Documents or issue and sell the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof (other than any filings, consents and approvals which may be required to be made by the Company under applicable state and federal securities laws, rules or regulations).

          p. No Violation. Except as set forth in Schedule II(1)(c), neither the Company nor any Subsidiary (i) is in default under or in violation of (and no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a default by the Company or any Subsidiary under), nor has the Company or any Subsidiary received notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, except such that, individually or in the aggregate, such default(s) and violations(s) would not have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) is in violation of any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body, or (iii) is in violation of any of the provisions of its certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents.

          q. Dilutive Effect.

The Company shall pay, and hold Vicis harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any claim for any such fees or commissions.

          s. Indebtedness and Other Contracts. Except as disclosed in the Commission Documents, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary (a) has any outstanding Indebtedness (as defined below in this Section), (b) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument, the violation of which, or default under, by any other party to such contract, agreement or instrument would result in a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is in violation of any term of or in default under any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any Indebtedness, except where such violations and defaults would not result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect, or (d) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any Indebtedness, the performance of which, in the judgment of the Company’s officers, has or is expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in which any such officer, director, or employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.

          x. Insurance. The Company and each Subsidiary are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management of the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and each Subsidiary are engaged. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

          y. Title. Except as set forth in the Commission Documents, the Company and each Subsidiary have good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them which is material to their respective business, in each case free and clear of all liens. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company or any Subsidiary are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company or any Subsidiary.

          z. Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess the rights to use all patents, trademarks, domain names (whether or not registered) and any patentable improvements or copyrightable derivative works thereof, websites and intellectual property rights relating thereto, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and authorizations which are necessary for the conduct of its business as now conducted (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”) without any conflict with the rights of others, except any failures as, individually or in the aggregate, are not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received a written notice that the Intellectual Property Rights used by the Company or any Subsidiary violates or infringes upon the rights of any Person. To the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable measures to protect the value of the Intellectual Property Rights.

          gg. Disclosure. All written disclosure provided to Vicis regarding the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Schedules to this Agreement, furnished by or on behalf of the Company are true and correct and do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

          a. Organization and Standing of Vicis. Vicis is a trust duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization.

          b. Authorization and Power. Vicis has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform the Transaction Documents and to purchase or otherwise acquire the Securities being issued to it hereunder. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by Vicis and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or partnership action, and no further consent or authorization of such Vicis, as applicable, or its Board of Directors, stockholders, or partners, as the case may be, is required. When executed and delivered by Vicis, the Transaction Documents shall constitute valid and binding obligations of Vicis enforceable against such Vicis in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

          c. No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by Vicis and the consummation by Vicis of the transactions contemplated thereby and hereby do not and will not (i) violate any provision of Vicis’s charter or organizational documents; (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which Vicis is a party or by which Vicis’s respective properties or assets are bound; or (iii) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to Vicis by which any property or asset of Vicis is bound or affected, except, in all cases, other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) (with respect to federal and state securities laws) above, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affect Vicis’s ability to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents.

          d. Acquisition for Investment. Vicis is acquiring the Securities solely for its own account and not with a view to or for sale in connection with distribution. Vicis does not have a present intention to sell any of the Securities, or a present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to effect any distribution of any of the Securities to or through any person or entity; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, Vicis does not agree to hold the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with federal and state securities laws applicable to such disposition. Vicis acknowledges that it (i) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that Vicis is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of Vicis’s investment in the Company; (ii) is able to bear the financial risks associated with an investment in the Securities; and (iii) has been given full access to such records of the Company and the Subsidiaries and to the officers of the Company and the Subsidiaries as it has deemed necessary or appropriate to conduct its due diligence investigation.

          e. Rule 144. Vicis acknowledges that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or any applicable state securities laws in reliance upon exemption provisions of the Act and such other laws; and accordingly, no Federal or state agency has made any recommendation or endorsement as to, or otherwise passed on the merits of, purchasing the Securities. Vicis further acknowledges that there is no public market for the Securities, other than a limited market for the Company’s shares of Common Stock, and that it will not be possible to readily liquidate its investment. Vicis must bear the economic risks of investment for an indefinite period of time and Vicis understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless such Securities are registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is available. Vicis acknowledges that such person is familiar with Rule 144 of the rules and regulations of the Commission, as amended, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and that such Vicis has been advised that Rule 144 permits resales only under certain circumstances. Vicis understands that, to the extent that Rule 144 is not available, such Vicis will be unable to sell any Securities without either registration under the Securities Act or the existence of another exemption from such registration requirement.

          f. Independent Inquiry. Vicis has been given (i) access to all books and records, legal documents and other material information of the Company; (ii) access to all material contracts and documents of the Company relating to the Securities and the Company’s business; and (iii) an opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the executive officers of the Company, regarding the information in (i) and (ii) above. Vicis has made such investigation and examination of the affairs of the Company and has obtained such information relating thereto as he or she deems necessary to verify the accuracy of the information furnished to him or her. Vicis has received no representation or warranty from any person regarding the Company or its business or prospects, or the Securities; and Vicis acknowledges that the ability of the Company to achieve its business objective is uncertain. Vicis understands that an investment in the Company is extremely risky and acknowledges reviewing all of the Risk Factors contained in the Commission Documents.

          g. General. Vicis understands that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Vicis set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of such Vicis to acquire the Securities. The information provided to the Company by Vicis is true and accurate and contains no material misstatements. Vicis understands that no United States federal or state agency or any government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities. Commencing on the date that Vicis was initially contacted regarding an investment in the Securities, its has not engaged in any short sale of any of the Securities and will not engage in any such short sale prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

          h. No General Solicitation. Vicis acknowledges that the Securities were not offered to such Vicis, as applicable, by means of any form of general or public solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio; or (ii) any seminar or meeting to which such Vicis, as applicable, was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications. Vicis in making the decision to purchase the Securities, has relied upon independent investigation made by it and has not relied on any information or representations made by third parties.

          i. Accredited Vicis. Vicis is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D), and such Vicis has such experience in business and financial matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities. Such Vicis is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act and such Vicis is not a broker-dealer. Vicis acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk.

          j. Sophistication. Vicis has sufficient knowledge and experience in business and financial matters to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company and is able to bear the economic risks inherent in this investment and has the ability, at the present time, to afford a complete loss of the undersigned’s entire investment in the Company. Vicis’s overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to his or her net worth in light of his or her business or investments, and Vicis’s investment in the Company will not cause such overall commitment to be disproportionate. Vicis has adequate means of providing for his or her current financial needs and possible personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity in this investment.

          k. Regulation M. Vicis has complied and will comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

CERTIFICATE LEGEND

     1. Legend. Each certificate representing the Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any legend required by applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE COMPANY SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.

     Prior to registration of the Conversion Shares under the Securities Act, all such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend specified in this Section. Certificates evidencing the Conversion Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in this Section), (i) while a registration statement (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, or (ii) following any sale of such Conversion Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Conversion Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 by Vicis without limitation as to volume or manner of sale, or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of the Commission). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent promptly after the effective date of a registration statement covering such Conversions Shares, if required by the Company’s transfer agent, to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. If all or any portion of the Acquired Shares is converted at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Conversion Shares, such Conversion Shares, as the case may be, shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following the effective date of the registration statement covering Conversion Shares or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section, it will, no later than five (5) trading days following the delivery by Vicis to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Conversion Shares, as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend (such date, the “Delivery Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to Vicis a certificate representing such Securities 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 the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section. Whenever a certificate representing the Conversion Shares is required to be issued to Vicis without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Conversion Shares, provided the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated

Securities Transfer program, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Conversion Shares to Vicis by crediting the account of such Vicis’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).

     2. Liquidated Damages. The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of unlegended certificates for the Conversion Shares as set forth in Section 1 hereof beyond the Delivery Date could result in economic loss to Vicis. If the Company fails to deliver to a Vicis such shares via DWAC or a certificate or certificates pursuant to this Section hereunder by the Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to Vicis, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $500 of Conversion Shares (based on the closing price of the Common Stock reported by the principal trading market on the date such Securities are submitted to the Company’s transfer agent) subject to Section 1, $10 per trading day (increasing to $15 per trading day five (5) trading days after such damages have begun to accrue and increasing to $20 per trading day ten (10) trading days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each trading day after the Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered. Nothing herein shall limit Vicis’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing any Securities as required by the Transaction Documents, and Vicis 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.

     3. Sales by Vicis. Vicis agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in Section 1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that Vicis will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom.

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION

     1. General Indemnity. The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Vicis (and their respective directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by Vicis as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company herein. Vicis agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Company as result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by such Vicis herein.

     2. Indemnification Procedure. Any party entitled to indemnification under this Article VII (an “indemnified party”) will give written notice to the indemnifying party of any matter giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any party entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article VII except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action, proceeding or claim is brought against an indemnified party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the indemnifying party a conflict of interest between it and the indemnified party exists with respect to such action, proceeding or claim (in which case the indemnifying party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for the indemnified parties), to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an indemnified party that it will contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim. In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the indemnified party’s costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder. The indemnified party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the indemnified party which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in such defense

with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VII to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on the indemnified party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnification obligations to defend the indemnified party required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, so long as the indemnified party shall refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to indemnification. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law. No indemnifying party will be liable to the indemnified party under this Agreement to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to the indemnified party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants made by such party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.
