5. CERTAIN COVENANTS.

(a) Transfer Restrictions.
The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (1) the Note and the Warrants have not been and are not being registered under the provisions of the 1933 Act or any state securities laws and, except as provided in Section 8, the Shares have not been and are not being registered under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws, and that the Note and the Warrants may not be transferred unless the Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the Company, to the effect that the Note or the Warrants to be transferred may be transferred without such registration; (2) no sale, conveyance assignment or other transfer of the Note or the Warrants or any interest therein may be made except in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; (3) the Shares may not be resold by the Buyer unless the resale has been registered under the 1933 Act or is made pursuant to an applicable exemption from such registration and the Company shall have received the opinion of counsel provided for in the second to last sentence of this Section 5(a); (4) any sale of Shares under a Registration Statement shall be made only in compliance with the terms of this Section 5(a) and Section 8 (including, without limitation, Section 8(c)(4)); (5) any sale of the Securities made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if the exemption provided by Rule 144 is not available, any resale of the Securities under circumstances in which the seller, or the Person through whom the sale is made, may be deemed to be an underwriter, as that term is used in the 1933 Act, may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (6) the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities (other than registration of the resale of the Registrable Securities in accordance with Section 8) under the 1933 Act or, except as provided in Section 5(d) and Section 8, to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. Prior to the time particular Shares are eligible for resale under Rule 144(k), the Buyer may not sell the Shares in a transaction which does not constitute a sale thereof pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth therein or in any supplement to the related Prospectus unless the Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the Company, that such Shares may be so sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Nothing in any of the Transaction Documents shall limit the right of a holder of the Securities to make a bona fide pledge thereof to an institutional lender and the Company agrees to cooperate with any Investor who seeks to effect any such pledge by providing such information and making such confirmations as reasonably requested. The Buyer agrees that any sale by the Buyer of Shares pursuant to a particular Registration Statement shall be sold in a manner described in the plan of distribution set forth in the related Prospectus and, if the prospectus delivery requirement cannot be satisfied by compliance with Rule 153 or 172 under the 1933 Act, (A) if such sale is made through a broker, the Buyer shall instruct its broker to deliver the Prospectus to the purchaser or purchasers (or the broker or brokers therefor) in connection with such sale, shall supply copies of the Prospectus to its broker or brokers and shall instruct its broker or brokers to deliver such Prospectus to the purchaser in such sale or such purchaser’s broker, (B) if such sale is made in a transaction directly with a purchaser and not through the facilities of any securities exchange or market, the Buyer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the Prospectus to such purchaser; and (C) if such sale is made by any means other than those described in the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B), the Buyer shall otherwise use its best efforts to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933 Act applicable to such sale.

-28-

(b) Restrictive Legends.
(1) The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Note shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the Note):

NEITHER THE ISSUANCE OF THIS NOTE NOR THE ISSUANCE OF THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS NOTE IS CONVERTIBLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “1933 ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE, NOR MAY ANY INTEREST THEREIN BE, OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE 1933 ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE 1933 ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY, SUBJECT TO CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS, A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

(2) The Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that the Warrants shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the Warrants):

NEITHER THIS WARRANT NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS WARRANT IS EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES REGULATORS OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “1933 ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE, NOR MAY ANY INTEREST THEREIN BE, OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE 1933 ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE 1933 ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY, SUBJECT TO CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS, A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

(3) The Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that until such time as the Shares have been registered for resale under the 1933 Act as contemplated by Section 8 or are eligible for resale under Rule 144(k) under the 1933 Act, the certificates for the Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for the Shares):

The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). The securities have been acquired for investment and may not be resold, transferred or assigned in the absence of an effective registration statement for the securities under the 1933 Act or an opinion of counsel that registration is not required under the 1933 Act.

-29-

(4) Certificates evidencing the Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 5(b)(3) hereof): (i) while a registration statement (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such Security is effective under the 1933 Act, or (ii) following any sale of such Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the 1933Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent promptly after the SEC Effective Date if required by the Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. If all or any portion of a Securities are converted or exercised (as applicable) at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Shares, or if such Shares may be sold under Rule 144(k) or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act (including judicial interpretations thereof) then such Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following the SEC Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 5(b)(4), it will, no later than five Trading Days following the delivery by a Buyer to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Shares, as applicable, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Buyer a certificate representing such 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 the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section. Certificates for Securities subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the Buyers by crediting the account of the Buyer’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System.

(c) Reporting Status.
  During the Registration Period, the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.

(d) Form D.
The Company agrees to file with the SEC on a timely basis one or more Forms D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D to claim the exemption provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to the Buyer within five Business Days after Buyer requests in writing a copy of such filing.

(e) State Securities Laws.
On or before the Closing Date, the Company shall take such action as shall be necessary to qualify, or to obtain an exemption for, the offer and sale of the Securities to the Buyer as contemplated by the Transaction Documents under such of the securities laws of jurisdictions in the United States as shall be applicable thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations of the Company in this Section 5(e), the Company shall not be required (1) to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 5(e), (2) to subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, (3) to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction, (4) to provide any undertakings that cause more than nominal expense or burden to the Company or (5) to make any change in its certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws which the Company determines to be contrary to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Company shall furnish the Buyer with copies of all filings, applications, orders and grants or confirmations of exemptions relating to such securities laws on or before the Closing Date.

-30-

(f) Limitation on Certain Actions.
From the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto to the date of issuance of the Note, the Company (1) shall comply with Article III of the Note as if the Note were outstanding, (2) shall not take any action which, if the Note were outstanding, (A) would constitute an Event of Default or, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default or (B) would constitute a Repurchase Event or, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute a Repurchase Event.

(g) Use of Proceeds.
The Company represents and warrants to the Buyer, and covenants and agrees with the Buyer, that: (1) it does not own or have any present intention of acquiring any Margin Stock; (2) the proceeds of sale of the Note and the Warrant Shares will be used for general working capital purposes and in the operation of the Company’s business; provided, however, that up to $100,000 of the proceeds of this Note and the Other Notes may be used in connection with the search for an additional member of senior management described in Section 3.17(b) of the Note; (3) none of such proceeds will be used, directly or indirectly (A) to pay any existing debt obligations (other than normal payables), (B) to make any loan to or investment in any other Person or (C) for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of purchasing or carrying any margin stock or for the purpose of maintaining, reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any stock that is currently a Margin Stock or for any other purpose which might constitute the transactions contemplated by this Agreement a “purpose credit” within the meaning of such Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; and (4) neither the Company nor any agent acting on its behalf has taken or will take any action which might cause this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to violate Regulation T, Regulation U or any other regulation of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to violate the 1934 Act, in each case as in effect now or as the same may hereafter be in effect.

(h) Best Efforts.
Each of the Company, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, agree to use their best efforts timely to satisfy each of the conditions to the other’s obligations to sell and purchase the Note set forth in Section 6 or 7, as the case may be, of this Agreement on or before the Closing Date.

(i) Debt Obligation.
 So long as any portion of the Note is outstanding, the Company shall cause its books and records to reflect the Note as a debt of the Company in its unpaid principal amount, shall cause its financial statements to reflect the Note as a debt of the Company in such amount as shall be the greatest amount permitted in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and, whenever appropriate, as a valid senior debt obligation of the Company for money borrowed.

-31-

(j) Right of the Buyer to Participate in Future Transactions.

(1) Right to Participate. The Buyer will have a right to participate, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 5(j), in all sales by the Company of any of the Company’s equity securities or other securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for any of the Company’s equity securities in each capital raising transaction, if any, that occurs at any time when the Note, or any instrument issued upon transfer or split up thereof, remains outstanding (in whole or in part), other than any such sale that is a public offering underwritten on a firm commitment basis and registered with the SEC under the 1933 Act and other than a Strategic Issuance; provided, however, that if under legal requirements applicable to a particular transaction the only Persons eligible to purchase securities in such transaction are “accredited investors,” as defined in Regulation D, then the Buyer must be an accredited investor in order to purchase securities in such transaction. For any such transaction during such period, the Company shall give at least four Business Days advance written notice to the Buyer prior to any offer or sale of any of the Company's securities in such transaction by providing to the Buyer a term sheet which (A) contains all significant business terms of such proposed transaction, (B) is sufficiently detailed so as to reasonably permit the Buyer the opportunity to determine whether or not to exercise its rights under this Section 5(j) and (C) is at least as detailed as the term sheet or summary of such transaction as the Company shall furnish to any offeree or broker in such transaction. The Buyer shall have the right to participate in such proposed transaction and to purchase its Pro Rata Share of such securities which are the subject of such proposed transaction for the same consideration and on the same terms and conditions as contemplated for sales to third parties in such transaction (or such lesser portion thereof as specified by the Buyer). If the Buyer elects to exercise its rights hereunder for a particular transaction, it shall deliver written notice to the Company within four Business Days following receipt from the Company of the notice and term sheet meeting the requirements of this Section 5(j), which notice from the Buyer shall be conditional upon (A) the Buyer’s receipt of satisfactory definitive documents for such transaction from the Company if the Company has not furnished final, definitive documents for such transaction to the Buyer at or before the time the Company gives such notice of such transaction to the Buyer, and (B) the satisfaction of the other conditions precedent to the obligations of buyers generally in such transaction to complete such transaction. If, subsequent to the Company giving notice to the Buyer hereunder but prior to any of (i) the Buyer exercising its right to participate, (ii) the expiration of the four Business Day period without response from the Buyer or (iii) the rejection of such offer for such financing by the Buyer, the terms and conditions of the proposed sale to third parties in such transaction are changed from those disclosed in the term sheet provided to the Buyer, the Company shall be required to provide a new notice and term sheet meeting the requirements of this Section 5(j), reflecting such revised terms, to the Buyer hereunder and the Buyer shall have the right, which must be exercised within four Business Days of the date the Buyer receives such new notice and such revised term sheet, to exercise its rights to purchase the securities on such changed terms and conditions and otherwise as provided hereunder. If the Buyer does not exercise its rights hereunder with respect to a proposed transaction within the period or periods provided, or affirmatively declines to engage in such proposed transaction with the Company, then the Company may proceed with such proposed transaction on the same terms and conditions as noticed to the Buyer (assuming the Buyer has consented to the transaction, if required, pursuant to Section 5(n) and such transaction does not violate any other term or provision of the Transaction Documents), provided that if such proposed transaction is not consummated within 75 days following the Company’s notice hereunder, then the rights hereunder shall again be afforded to the Buyer for such proposed transaction. The rights and obligations of this Section 5(j) shall in no way limit or restrict the other rights of the Buyer pursuant to this Section 5. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, failure of the Buyer to affirmatively elect in writing to participate in any proposed transaction within the required time frames shall be deemed to be the equivalent of Buyer’s decision not to participate in such proposed transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(j)(1) shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance.
 
 
-32-


(2) Limitation on Right of Participation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired directly or through acquisition of Common Stock Equivalents by the Buyer pursuant to any transaction to which this Section 5(j) applies shall not at any one time exceed a number that, when added to the total number of shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned by the Buyer (other than by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities (including the Note and the Warrants) that have limitations on the Buyer’s right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein (the “Excluded Shares”)), together with all shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned at such time (other than by virtue of ownership of Excluded Shares) by Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the beneficial ownership of the Buyer for purposes of determining whether a group exists or for purposes of determining the Buyer’s beneficial ownership, in either such case for purposes of Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and Regulation 13D-G thereunder, would result in beneficial ownership by the Buyer or such group of more than 9.9% of the shares of the Company's Common Stock (the “Restricted Ownership Percentage”), computed in accordance with Regulation 13D-G. The Buyer shall have the right (x) at any time and from time to time to reduce its Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately upon notice to the Company in the event and only to the extent that Section 16 of the 1934 Act or the rules promulgated thereunder (or any successor statute or rules) is changed to reduce the beneficial ownership percentage threshold thereunder to a percentage less than 10% and (y) at any time and from time to time, to increase its Restricted Ownership Percentage unless the Buyer shall have, by written instrument delivered to the Company, irrevocably waived its rights to so increase its Restricted Ownership Percentage. If the Buyer would otherwise be unable by reason of the Restricted Ownership Percentage to acquire the full amount of securities which the Buyer would otherwise be entitled to acquire in a particular transaction pursuant to this Section 5(j) then (A) the Company shall include in the terms of the securities which the Buyer is entitled to purchase in such transaction under this Section 5(j) a provision comparable to Section 6.7 of the Note and (B) if, notwithstanding the inclusion of the provision required by the immediately preceding clause (1), the Buyer remains unable to acquire the full amount of securities which the Buyer would otherwise be entitled to acquire under this Section 5(j), the Buyer’s right to acquire such securities shall be deferred and if thereafter, at any time or from time to time the Buyer could acquire all or any part of such securities without exceeding its Restricted Ownership Percentage, then the Buyer shall be entitled to acquire such securities at such time or form time to time. The Buyer will provide notice to the Company when it becomes able to purchase all or any part of such securities and the closing of each such purchase shall occur on the date that is five Business Days after the Buyer gives such notice.

(3) Right Applicable to Successive Transactions. The rights of the Buyer under this Section 5(j) shall apply to all capital raising transactions described in Section 5(j)(1) that occur during the period specified in Section 5(j)(1).

(k) Press Releases.
Any press release or other publicity concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be submitted to the Buyer for comment at least one Business Day prior to issuance, unless the release is required to be issued within a shorter period of time pursuant to this Agreement or by law or pursuant to the rules of the securities exchange or market which at the time constitutes the principal market for the Common Stock.  The Company shall, contemporaneously with the Closing on the Closing Date or as promptly as possible thereafter on the Closing Date, issue a press release, in the form of Annex VI hereto, concerning the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company's other press releases and other public information, to the extent concerning the Transaction Documents, shall contain such information as reasonably requested by the Buyer and be reasonably approved by the Buyer prior to issuance.

(l) Form 8-K; Limitation on Information and Buyer Obligations.
(1) Within two Business Days after the Closing Date, the Company will publicly report the issue and sale of the Note and Warrants and the securities issued pursuant to the Other Purchase Agreements entered into on or before the Closing Date by filing with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K under the 1934 Act, which report shall describe the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and include copies of the forms of the Transaction Documents as exhibits to such report (the “Transaction Form 8-K”). The Company acknowledges and agrees that, upon the filing of the Transaction Form 8-K with the SEC, the Buyer shall not be in possession of any material nonpublic information received from the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents.

(2) The Company shall not provide, and shall cause each Subsidiary and the respective officers, directors, employees and agents of the Company and the Subsidiaries not to provide, the Buyer any material nonpublic information regarding the Company or any Subsidiary from and after the date the Company files, or is required by this Agreement to file, the Transaction Form 8-K with the SEC without the prior express written consent of the Buyer.

-33-

(m) Limitation on Certain Transactions.
From the date of this Agreement until after the SEC Effective Date of the Registration Statement contemplated by Section 8(a)(1), without the prior written consent of the Buyer (which consent may be withheld in the Buyer’s sole discretion), the Company shall not issue or sell or agree to issue or sell any securities (aside from the Other Notes and the Other Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof) in a capital raising transaction, unless such securities will not be, and are not, registered for sale or resale under the 1933 Act until on or after such SEC Effective Date; provided, however, that the limitation of this Section 5(m) shall not apply to (a) shares of Common Stock or options to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted by a majority of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (b) securities upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any Securities issued hereunder and/or securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of this Agreement, provided that such securities have not been amended since the date of this Agreement to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise, exchange or conversion price of any such securities, and (c) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions, provided any such issuance shall only be to a Person which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and in which the Company receives benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities (collectively, an “Exempt Issuance”). The Company agrees that, except for the amounts of securities to be purchased and the name of the buyer and the Restricted Ownership Percentage, the terms and provisions of the Other Notes and the Other Warrants shall be identical to the Note and the Warrants.

(n) Debt Obligation.
 So long as any portion of the Note is outstanding, the Company shall cause its books and records to reflect the Note as a debt of the Company in its unpaid principal amount, shall cause its financial statements to reflect the Note as a debt of the Company in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and as a valid senior debt obligation of the Company for money borrowed that is secured by the Collateral (unless all Collateral shall have been released pursuant to the Security Agreement and the security interest thereunder shall have terminated).

(o) Security Agreement; Financing Statements, Etc.
The Company agrees to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent at or before the Closing the Patent and Trademark Security Agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex III and the Pledge and Security Agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex IV. The Company shall prepare and at or before the Closing Date file with the appropriate officials, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements on Form UCC-1 relating to the Collateral in which the Company is granting a security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the holders of the Note and the Other Notes pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement; and prepare and file with the PTO appropriate documents relating to the Collateral in which the Company is granting a security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the holders of the Note and the Other Notes pursuant to the Patent and Trademark Security Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide to the Buyer evidence of such filings and customary, current search reports of the relevant Uniform Commercial Code filing offices and the PTO.

(p) Short Sales and Confidentiality After The Date Hereof.
The Buyer covenants that neither it nor any affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any Short Sales during the period commencing from the time that the Buyer first received a term sheet from the Company or any other Person setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending on the earlier of (i) the date that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced subsequent to the Closing Date as described in Section 5(k) and (ii) the date, if applicable, that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10(l). The Buyer covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company as described in Section 5(k) or the earlier termination of this Agreement, the Buyer will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction). The Buyer understands and acknowledges that the SEC currently takes the position that coverage of short sales of shares of the Common Stock “against the box” prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement with the Securities is a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Item 65, Section 5 under Section A, of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997, compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer does not make any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in Short Sales in the securities of the Company after the earlier of (i) the date that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced subsequent to the Closing Date as described in Section 5(k) and (ii) the date, if applicable, that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10(l). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Buyer that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Buyer's assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Buyer's assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement.

Such Registration Statement may also cover the resale by other holders of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company pursuant to any equity or convertible debt financing completed by the Company prior to the SEC Filing Date.

(2) Prior to the earlier of the (i) SEC Effective Date, or (ii) two (2) years from the date hereof, the Company shall not file any other registration statement or any amendment thereto with the SEC under the 1933 Act or request the acceleration of the effectiveness of any other registration statement previously filed with the SEC, other than (A) any registration statement on Form S-8 and (B) any registration statement or amendment which the Company is required to file, or as to which the Company is required to request acceleration, pursuant to any obligation in effect on the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement.

(3) If at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date any Investor shall hold or be the beneficial owner of any Registrable Securities, other than those Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement that the Company is required to file under Section 8(a)(1), which Registrable Securities are not covered by a Registration Statement, then promptly following the written demand of any Investor following the issuance of such additional Registrable Securities or the issuance of any securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or otherwise entitling an Investor to acquire, such additional Registrable Securities, and in any event within 30 days following such demand, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a new Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not then available to the Company, on such form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of such additional Registrable Securities) covering the resale by such Investor of such additional Registrable Securities. Such Registration Statement also shall cover, to the extent permitted by the 1933 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional securities resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to such additional Registrable Securities. Nothing herein shall limit the Company’s obligations or any Investor’s rights under Section 6.4 of the Note or Section 9 of the Warrants.

(4) If a Payment Event occurs, then the Company will make payments to the Buyer, in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States, as partial liquidated damages for the minimum amount of damages to the Buyer by reason thereof, and not as a penalty, which payments shall accrue at the rate of 1.0% per month of the principal amount of the Note at the time outstanding during each Payment Period. Each such payment shall be due and payable within five Business Days after the end of each calendar month during which any Payment Period occurs until the termination of such Payment Period and within five Business Days after such termination. Such payments shall be in partial compensation to the Buyer, and shall not constitute the Buyer’s exclusive remedy for any Payment Event. A particular Payment Period shall terminate upon (u) the filing of the applicable Registration Statement, in the case of clause (i) of the definition of “Payment Event”; (v) the applicable SEC Effective Date for the particular Registration Statement, in the case of clause (ii) or (iii) of the definition of “Payment Event”; (w) the ability of the Buyer to effect sales pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement, in the case of clause (iv) of the definition of “Payment Event”; (x) the listing or inclusion and/or trading of the Common Stock on a Trading Market, as the case may be, in the case of clause (v) of the definition of “Payment Event”; (y) the issuance and delivery of the shares, in the case of clause (vi) of the definition of “Payment Event”; and (z) in the case of the events described in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of the definition of “Payment Event”, the earlier termination of the Registration Period, and in each such case in the preceding clauses (u) thorough (z), any Payment Period that commenced by reason of the occurrence of any Payment Event shall terminate if at the time (1) no other Payment Event is continuing or (2) subject to the rights of any transferee under Section 10(j), the Buyer no longer holds any portion of the Note or any Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8(a)(4) to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to make any payments hereunder for Payment Periods in excess of an aggregate of 548 days. If the Company fails to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within three days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 16% per annum (or such lesser rate as is the highest rate permitted by applicable law) to the Buyer, accruing daily from the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full.
 
            (5) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the registration rights set forth in this Section 8 apply to the Note and December Closing Date Warrant. The July 2006 Warrant shall have the same registration rights mutatis mutandis as, and be registered with, the Other Warrants pursuant to the registration rights set forth in the Other Note Purchase Agreement.

(b) Obligations of the Company.
In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall:

(1) use its best efforts to cause each Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period. The Company shall submit to the SEC, within three Business Days after the Company learns that no review of such Registration Statement will be made by the staff of the SEC or that the staff of the SEC has no further comments on such Registration Statement, as the case may be, a request for acceleration of effectiveness of such Registration Statement to a time and date not later than 48 hours after the submission of such request. The Company represents and warrants to the Investors that (a) each Registration Statement (including any amendment or supplement thereto and prospectus contained therein), at the time it is first filed with the SEC, at the time it is ordered effective by the SEC and at all times during which it is required to be effective hereunder (and each such amendment and supplement at the time it is filed with the SEC and at all times during which it is available for use in connection with the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (b) each Prospectus, at the time the related Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC and at all times that such Prospectus is required by this Agreement to be available for use by any Investor and, in accordance with Section 8(c)(4), any Investor is entitled to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to such Prospectus, shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading;

(2) subject to Section 8(b)(5), prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and Prospectus as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective, and such Prospectus current, at all times during the Registration Period, and, during the Registration Period (other than during any Blackout Period during which the provisions of Section 8(b)(5)(B) are applicable), comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act applicable to the Company in order to permit the disposition by the Investors of all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement;

(3) furnish to Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in a particular Registration Statement and such Investors’ respective legal counsel, promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the SEC or received by the Company, (1) one conformed copy of such Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and the related Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto and (2) such number of copies of such Prospectus and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents, as such Investor may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor; and notify the Investor and its legal counsel within one Business Day after the same is filed with the SEC, or received by the Company, of the filing or receipt of each letter written by or on behalf on the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC, and each item of correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC, in each case relating to such Registration Statement (other than any portion of any thereof which contains information for which the Company has sought confidential treatment), and permit counsel designed by the Investor to review letters and items of correspondence upon the request of such counsel;

(4) subject to Section 8(b)(5), use its best efforts (i) to register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any Investor who owns or holds any Registrable Securities reasonably requests, (ii) to prepare and to file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof at all times during the Registration Period and (iii) to take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale by the Investors in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto (I) to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 8(b)(4), (II) to subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, (III) to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction, (IV) to provide any undertakings that cause more than nominal expense or burden to the Company or (V) to make any change in its certificate or article of incorporation or by-laws which the Board of Directors of the Company determines to be contrary to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders;

-38-

(5) (A) as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or circumstance, notify each Investor of the occurrence of any event or circumstance of which the Company has knowledge (x) as a result of which any Prospectus, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (y) which requires the Company to amend or supplement any Registration Statement due to the receipt from an Investor or any other selling stockholder named in the Prospectus of new or additional information about such Investor or selling stockholder or its intended plan of distribution of its Registrable Securities or other securities covered by such Registration Statement, or (z) which requires the Company to amend or supplement any Registration Statement pursuant to the Company’s undertakings as set forth in the Registration Statement and in Item 512 of Regulation S-K under the 1933 Act, and use its best efforts promptly to prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement and Prospectus to correct such untrue statement or omission or to add any new or additional information, and deliver a number of copies of such supplement or amendment to each Investor as such Investor may reasonably request;

(B) notwithstanding Section 8(b)(5)(A) above, if at any time the Company notifies the Investors as contemplated by Section 8(b)(5)(A) with respect to a particular Registration Statement or Prospectus the Company also notifies the Investors that the event giving rise to such notice relates to a development involving the Company which occurred subsequent to the later of (x) the SEC Effective Date of the applicable Registration Statement and (y) the latest date prior to such notice on which the Company has amended or supplemented such Registration Statement, then the Company shall not be required to use best efforts to make such amendment during a Blackout Period; provided, however, that in any period of 365 consecutive days the Company shall not be entitled to avail itself of its rights under this Section 8(b)(5)(B) with respect to more than two Blackout Periods; and provided further, however, that no Blackout Period may commence sooner than 90 days after the end of an earlier Blackout Period;

(6) as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being offered or sold pursuant to a particular Registration Statement of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of such Registration Statement at the earliest possible time;

(7) permit the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being included in a particular Registration Statement (or their designee) and their counsel to review and have a reasonable opportunity to comment on such Registration Statement and any related Prospectus and all amendments and supplements thereto at least two Business Days prior to their filing with the SEC;

(8) make generally available to its security holders as soon as practical, but not later than 90 days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earning statement (in form complying with the provisions of Rule 158 under the 1933 Act) covering a 12-month period beginning not later than the first day of the Company’s fiscal quarter next following the SEC Effective Date of each Registration Statement;

-39-

(9) make available for inspection by any Investor and any Inspector retained by such Investor, at such Investor’s sole expense, all Records as shall be reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable such Investor to exercise due diligence for purposes of the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act as it relates to the Registration Statement and cause the Company’s and the Subsidiaries officers, directors and employees to supply all information which such Investor or Inspector may reasonably request for purposes of such due diligence; provided, however, that such Investor shall hold in confidence and shall not make any disclosure of any Record or other information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination such Investor is so notified, unless (i) the disclosure of such Record is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in a Registration Statement or Prospectus and a reasonable time prior to such disclosure the Investor shall have notified the Company of the need to so correct such misstatement or omission and the Company shall have failed to correct such misstatement or omission, (ii) the release of such Record is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or (iii) the information in such Record has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement. The Company shall not be required to disclose any confidential information in such Records to any Inspector until and unless such Inspector shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement with the Company with respect thereto, substantially in the form of this Section 8(b)(9), which agreement shall permit such Inspector to disclose Records to the Investor who has retained such Inspector. Each Investor agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at the Company’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential. The Company shall hold in confidence and shall not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company pursuant to this Agreement unless (i) the disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in a Registration Statement or the related Prospectus, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to such Investor and allow such Investor, at such Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information;

(10) use its best efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by a particular Registration Statement as of the SEC Effective Date of such Registration Statement to be listed, quoted or traded on the principal securities market on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, quoted or traded;

(11) provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Registrable Securities at all times;

(12) cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered pursuant to a particular Registration Statement to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to such Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts as the Investors may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investors may request; and, not later than the SEC Effective Date of such Registration Statement, the Company shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement opinions of counsel in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering;

(13) advise the Investors in writing on the date that the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC that the form of Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the 1933 Act or that it intends to file a Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the 1933 Act;

(14) during the Registration Period, the Company shall not bid for or purchase any Common Stock or any right to purchase Common Stock or attempt to induce any Person to purchase any such security or right if such bid, purchase or attempt would in any way limit the right of the Investors to sell Registrable Securities by reason of the limitations set forth in Regulation M under the 1934 Act; and

(15) take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investors of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement relating thereto.

(c) Obligations of the Buyer and other Investors.
In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Investors shall have the following obligations:

(1) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the Company completed Selling Securityholder Questionnaire in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A and shall execute such other documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request.

(2) Each Investor by such Investor’s acceptance of the Registrable Securities agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of each Registration Statement hereunder that covers such Registrable Securities, unless such Investor has notified the Company of such Investor’s election to exclude all of such Investor’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement;

-40-

(3) Each Investor agrees that it will not effect any disposition of the Registrable Securities except as contemplated in the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus or as otherwise is in compliance with applicable securities laws and that it will promptly notify the Company of any material changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement regarding such Investor or its plan of distribution before selling any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or Prospectus subsequent to such material change; each Investor agrees (a) to notify the Company in writing in the event that such Investor enters into any material agreement with a broker or a dealer for the sale pursuant to a Registration Statement of Registrable Securities through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer and (b) in connection with such agreement, to provide to the Company in writing the information necessary to prepare any supplemental Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(c) under the 1933 Act which is required with respect to such transaction; and

(4) Each Investor acknowledges that there may occasionally be times as specified in Section 8(b)(5) or 8(b)(6) when the Company must suspend the use of a Prospectus until such time as an amendment to the related Registration Statement has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the SEC, the Company has prepared a supplement to such Prospectus or the Company has filed an appropriate report with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act. Each Investor hereby covenants that it will not sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Prospectus during the period commencing at the time at which the Company gives such Investor notice of the suspension of the use of such Prospectus in accordance with Section 8(b)(5) or 8(b)(6) and ending at the time the Company gives such Investor notice that such Investor may thereafter effect sales pursuant to the Prospectus, or until the Company delivers to such Investor or files with the SEC an amended or supplemented Prospectus.

(d) Rule 144.
 With a view to making available to each Investor the benefits of Rule 144, the Company agrees:

(1) so long as any Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request of such Investor, to furnish to such Investor such information as may be necessary to permit such Investor to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration and otherwise reasonably to cooperate with such Investor and

(2) if at any time the Company is not required by applicable law or this Agreement to file reports with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, to use its best efforts, upon the request of an Investor, to make publicly available other information so long as is necessary to permit publication by brokers and dealers of quotations for the Common Stock and sales of the Registrable Securities in accordance with Rule 15c2-11 under the 1934 Act.

9. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.

(a) Indemnification.
(1) To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person against any Claims to which any of them may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any Violation. Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 9(a)(3) with respect to the number of legal counsel, the Company shall reimburse the Investors and each such controlling Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any documented reasonable legal fees or other documented and reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 9(a)(1) shall not apply to: (I) a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to an Indemnified Person furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person or an underwriter for such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (II) any Claim arising out of or based on any statement or omission in any Prospectus, which statement or omission was corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to the Indemnified Person prior to the pertinent sale or sales of Registrable Securities by such Indemnified Person; and (III) amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors.

(2) In connection with each Registration Statement, each Investor who is named as a selling stockholder in such Registration Statement agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the same extent and in the same manner set forth in Section 9(a)(1), each Indemnified Party against any Claim to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim arises out of or is based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto; and such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 9(a)(2) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor; provided, further, however, that an Investor shall be liable under this Section 9(a)(2) for only that amount of all Claims in the aggregate as does not exceed the amount by which the proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement exceeds the amount paid by such Investor for such Registrable Securities or for the Common Stock Equivalents pursuant to which such Registrable Securities were issued, as the case may be. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 9(a)(2) with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in such preliminary prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the related Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented.

-41-

(3) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 9(a) of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 9(a), deliver to the indemnifying party a notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding, in which case the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for more than one such separate counsel, and one local counsel in each jurisdiction in which an action is pending, for all Indemnified Persons or Indemnified Parties, as the case may be. The failure to deliver notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 9(a), except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. The indemnification required by this Section 9(a) shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred and is due and payable.

(b) Contribution.
To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party as set forth in Section 9(a) above is applicable by its terms but is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 9(a) to the fullest extent permitted by law. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, there shall be considered the relative fault of each party, the parties’ relative knowledge of and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission and any other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances; provided, however, that (a) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 9(a), (b) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any other Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation and (c) the aggregate contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited to the amount by which the proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities exceeds the amount paid by such Investor for such Registrable Securities or for the Common Stock Equivalents pursuant to which such Registrable Securities were issued, as the case may be.

(c) Other Rights.
The indemnification and contribution provided in this Section shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
