The Company has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Agreements, and the Agreements have been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by state or federal securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' and contracting parties' rights generally and except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 4.3 Non-Contravention. The execution and delivery of the Agreements, the issuance and sale of the Shares to be sold by the Company under the Agreements, the fulfillment of the terms of the Agreements and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not (A) conflict with or constitute a violation of, or default (with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time or both) under, (i) any material bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness, or under any material lease, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, joint venture or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or its properties are bound, (ii) the charter, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any law, administrative regulation, ordinance or order of any court or governmental agency, arbitration panel or authority applicable to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or their respective properties, or (B) result in the creation or imposition of any lien, encumbrance, claim, security interest or restriction whatsoever upon any of the material properties or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or an acceleration of indebtedness pursuant to any obligation, agreement or condition contained in any material bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of indebtedness or any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject. No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration, qualification or filing with, any regulatory body, administrative agency, self-regulatory organization, stock exchange or market, or other governmental body in the United States is required for the execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements and the valid issuance and sale of the Shares to be sold pursuant to the Agreements, other than such as have been made or obtained, and except for any securities filings required to be made under federal or state securities laws or the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. 4.4 Reporting Status. The Company has filed in a timely manner all documents that the Company was required to file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the 13 "Exchange Act"), during the twelve (12) months preceding the date of this Agreement. The following documents complied in all material respects with the SEC's requirements as of their respective filing dates, and the information contained therein as of the date thereof did not contain an 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 under which they were made not misleading, except to the extent that information contained in any such document has been revised or superseded by a later filed SEC Document (as defined below): (i) The Company's Proxy Statement for the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Proxy Statement"); (ii) The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, including the exhibits thereto (the "Form 10-K"); and (iii) all other documents, including the exhibits thereto, filed by the Company with the SEC since December 31, 2004 pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act (together with the Proxy Statement and the Form 10-K, the "SEC Documents"). The SEC Documents, as of the date of their respective filings with the SEC, did not contain an 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 under which they were made, not misleading. 4.5 Capitalization. As of the date hereof, the authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 55,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 50,000,000 shares are designated Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares are designated Preferred Stock. As of June 15, 2005, there were approximately 31,918,205 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, and no shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. As of June 15, 2005, an aggregate of 3,934,314 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding options and options or shares remaining available for issuance under the Company's 1996 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan, the 1997 Supplemental Stock Option Plan and the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, all of which shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options were issued by the Company to employees, consultants and directors of the Company. Other than as disclosed in the SEC Documents, no other shares or options, warrants or other rights to acquire shares of capital stock of the Company or securities convertible into capital stock of the Company are outstanding.

No preemptive right, co-sale right, right of first refusal or other similar right exists with respect to the Shares or the issuance and sale thereof. The issuance and sale of the Shares will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities 14 to any person and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities. No further approval or authorization of any stockholder, the Board of Directors of the Company or others is required for the issuance and sale of the Shares. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, no holder of any of the securities of the Company has any rights ("demand," "piggyback" or otherwise) to have such securities registered by reason of the intention to file, filing or effectiveness of a Registration Statement (as defined in Section 7.1 hereof). 4.6 Legal Proceedings. There is no material legal or governmental proceeding pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers or directors in their capacity as such officer or director is or may be a party or of which the business or property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject that is not disclosed in the SEC Documents.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings 15 relating to the revocation or modification of any such license, certificate, authorization or permit that, if determined adversely to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, would have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition or business, operations, assets or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 4.9 Intellectual Property.

Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, (i) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice in writing of, or has any knowledge of, any infringement of asserted rights of a third party with respect to any Intellectual Property that, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or business, operations, assets or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and (ii) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice in writing of any infringement rights by a third party with respect to any Intellectual Property that, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition or business, operations, assets or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as whole. 4.10 Financial Statements.

Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, press releases or in other "public disclosures" as such term is defined in Section 101(e) of Regulation FD of the Exchange Act, since December 31, 2004 there has not been (i) any material adverse change in the financial condition, earnings or prospects of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries nor has any material adverse event occurred to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (it being understood that the Company has incurred operating losses), (ii) any obligation, direct or contingent, that is material to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business, (iii) any dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made on the capital stock of the Company, or (iv) any loss or damage (whether or not insured) to the physical property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which has been sustained which has a material adverse effect on the financial condition or business, operations, assets or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

The Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and is listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. National Market (the "Nasdaq National Market"), and the Company has taken no action designed to, or likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act or de-listing the Common Stock from the Nasdaq National Market, nor to the best of the Company's knowledge is the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") currently contemplating such de-listing. The Company has not, in the twelve (12) months preceding the date hereof, received notice from the Nasdaq National Market to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements thereof. The Company and the Common Stock meet the criteria for continued listing and trading on the Nasdaq National Market. 4.13 Listing of the Shares. The Company shall comply with all requirements of the NASD with respect to the issuance of the Shares and the listing thereof on the Nasdaq National Market. In furtherance thereof, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as may be necessary and as soon as practicable and in no event later than twenty (20) days after the Closing Date to file with the Nasdaq National Market an application or other document required by the Nasdaq National Market and shall, upon request, provide evidence of such filing to the Investors. The Company knows of no reason why the Shares will not be eligible for listing on the Nasdaq National Market. The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will include in such application the Shares, and will take such other action as is necessary or desirable in the opinion of the Investors to cause the Shares to be listed on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible. The Company will take all action reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a Trading Market and will comply in all respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market. 4.14 No Manipulation of Stock.

The Company meets the requirements for the use of Form S-3 for the registration of the resale of the Shares by the Investors. 4.16 Insurance. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintains and will continue to maintain insurance against loss or damage by fire or other casualty and such other insurance, including, but not limited to, product liability insurance, in such amounts and covering such risks as is reasonably adequate consistent with industry practice for the conduct of their respective businesses and the value of their respective properties. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any present 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 without a significant increase in cost. 4.17 Tax Matters. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has filed all material federal, state, local and foreign income, franchise and other tax returns required to be filed by any jurisdiction to which it is subject and has paid all taxes due in accordance therewith, and no tax 17 deficiency has been determined adversely to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which has had (nor does the Company or any of its Subsidiaries have any knowledge of any tax deficiency which, if determined adversely to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, would reasonably be expected to have) a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 4.18 Investment Company. The Company is not an "investment company" within the meaning of such term under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder. 4.19 No Registration. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by, and compliance with the covenants of, the Investor in Section 5 hereof, no registration of the Shares under the Securities Act is required in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares by the Company to the Investors as contemplated by the Agreements. 4.20 Internal Accounting Controls; Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient, in the judgment of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the "Certifying Officers"), to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its Subsidiaries, is made known to the Certifying Officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company's Form 10-K or 10-Q, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Certifying Officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures as of the end of the Company's most recently ended fiscal quarter (such date, the "Evaluation Date"). The Company presented in its most recently filed Form 10-K or Form 10-Q the conclusions of the Certifying Officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Item 308(c) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act) or, to the Company's knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting. 4.21 Transactions With Affiliates and Employees. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, none of the officers or directors of the Company and, to the knowledge of the Company, none of the employees of the Company is presently a party to any transaction with the Company or any Subsidiary (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or other employee of the Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or other employee of the Company has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner. 18 4.22 Form D. With respect to the Shares, the Company agrees to file on a timely basis one or more Forms D, as required by Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act to claim the exemption provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D, and any filings required under applicable state securities laws to claim any exemption provided thereunder. 4.23 Certain Future Financings and Related Actions. (a) The Company will not sell, offer to sell, solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any "security" (as defined in the Securities Act) that is or could be integrated with the sale of the Shares in a manner that would require the registration of the Shares under the Securities Act or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares for purposes of the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq National Market. (b) The Company shall not offer, sell, contract to sell or issue (or engage any person to assist the Company in taking any such action) any equity securities or securities convertible into, exchangeable for or otherwise entitling the holder to acquire, any Common Stock at a price below the market price of the Common Stock during the period from the date of this Agreement to the ninetieth (90th) day following the effective date of the Registration Statement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.23(b) shall prohibit the Company from issuing securities (v) to employees, directors, officers, advisors or consultants of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (w) upon exercise of conversion, exchange, purchase or similar rights issued, granted or given by the Company and outstanding as of the date of this Agreement; (x) pursuant to a public offering underwritten on a firm commitment basis registered under the Securities Act; (y) for the purpose of funding the acquisition of securities or assets of any entity in a single transaction or a series of related transactions; or (z) pursuant to a strategic partnership or alliance agreement, loan agreement, equipment lease or similar commercial agreement (including licensing and similar arrangements). 4.24 Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares for working capital and general corporate purposes. 4.25 Non-Public Information. The Company confirms that it has not provided any Investor or its agents or counsel with any information, other than the existence of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or other than pursuant to a nondisclosure agreement, that constitutes or might constitute material non-public information as of the Closing Date. The Company understands and confirms that the Investors shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees that it will not provide the Investor or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Investor shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that the Investor shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. 4.26 Securities Law Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, at or prior to 8:30 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, on the first day following the Closing Date on which trading occurs on the Nasdaq National Market, (a) issue a press release disclosing the transactions contemplated hereby, and (b) file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC (the "8-K Filing") describing the transactions contemplated hereby and including this Agreement as an exhibit thereto, in the form required by the Exchange Act. Thereafter, the Company shall timely file any filings and notices 19 required by the SEC or the NASD with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of any Investor in any filing with the SEC (other than pursuant to the Registration Statement and exhibits to the 8-K Filing and other periodic filings made by the Company under the Exchange Act) or the NASD (other than pursuant to an application for the listing of the Shares on the Nasdaq National Market), without the prior written consent of such Investor, except to the extent such disclosure is required by law or NASD regulations or is made pursuant to a lawful request by a regulatory agency, including without limitation, the SEC or the NASD. 5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Investor. 5.1 The Investor represents and warrants to the Company that: (i) the Investor is an "accredited investor" as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and the Investor has the knowledge, sophistication and experience necessary to make, and is qualified to make decisions with respect to, investments in shares presenting an investment decision like that involved in the purchase of the Shares, including investments in securities issued by the Company and investments in comparable companies, and has had the opportunity to request and review all information it deemed relevant in making an informed decision to purchase the Shares; (ii) the Investor is acquiring the number of Shares set forth on the cover page hereto for its own account, or for the account of others for whom it acts as investment advisor only, for investment only and with no present intention of distributing any of such Shares in violation of the Securities Act nor does the Investor have any arrangement or understanding with any other persons regarding the distribution of such Shares; provided, that this representation and warranty shall not limit the Investor's right to sell the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, (iii) the Investor has filled in all requested information on the Selling Stockholder Notice and Questionnaire attached hereto as Exhibit C (the "Questionnaire") for use in preparing the Registration Statement and the answers thereto are true and correct as of the date hereof and will be true and correct as of the Closing Date; (iv) the Investor will notify the Company promptly of any material change in any of such information in the Questionnaire until such time as the Investor has sold all of its Shares or until the Company is no longer required to keep the Registration Statement effective; and (v) the Investor has, in connection with its decision to purchase the number of Shares set forth on the cover page hereto, relied only upon the SEC Documents, other publicly available information and the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein. The Investor understands that its acquisition of the Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any state securities law in reliance on specific exemptions therefrom, which exemptions may depend upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Investor's investment intent as expressed herein. 5.2 The Investor acknowledges that the Company has represented that no action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction outside the United States by the Company that would permit an offering of the Shares, or possession or distribution of offering materials in connection with the issuance of the Shares, in any jurisdiction outside the United States where action for that purpose is required. If the Investor is located or domiciled outside the United States, it agrees to comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each foreign jurisdiction in which it purchases, offers, sells or delivers the Shares or has in its possession or distributes any offering material, in all cases at its own expense. 5.3 The Investor hereby covenants with the Company not to make any sale of the Shares without complying with the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 7.2 hereof and, 20 without effectively causing the prospectus delivery requirement under the Securities Act to be satisfied, if applicable (unless the Investor is selling such Shares in a transaction not subject to the prospectus delivery requirement), and the Investor acknowledges that the certificates evidencing the Shares will be imprinted with a legend that prohibits their transfer except in accordance therewith. The Investor acknowledges that there may occasionally be times when the Company, based on the advice of its counsel, determines that, subject to the limitations of Section 7.2, it must suspend the use of the prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement (the "Prospectus") until such time as an amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the SEC or until the Company has amended or supplemented such Prospectus. 5.4 The Investor further represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the Investor has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and (ii) this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Investor enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' and contracting parties' rights generally and except as such enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and except as the indemnification and contribution agreements of the Investor herein may be legally unenforceable. 5.5 The Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented to the Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. The Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of Shares. 5.6 The Investor represents and warrants that neither it, nor any of its affiliates (or any other third party acting on the instructions of the Investor or its affiliates), have entered into any Short Sales (as hereinafter defined) or otherwise traded in the Common Stock or acted in a manner that could reasonably be expected to result in downward price pressure on the Common Stock following the receipt of any information or documents related to the sale of the Shares contemplated herein. For purposes of this Section 5.6, a "Short Sale" by the Investor shall mean a sale of Common Stock by the Investor that is marked as a short sale and that is made at a time when there is no equivalent offsetting long position in Common Stock held by the Investor. 6. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. Notwithstanding any investigation made by any party to this Agreement, all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Company and the Investor herein shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the delivery to the Investor of the Shares being purchased and the payment therefor. 7. Registration of the Shares; Compliance with the Securities Act. 7.1 Registration Procedures and Expenses. The Company shall: (a) subject to receipt of the Questionnaire from the Investor, use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC, as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, a registration statement (the "Registration Statement") on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for 21 resale the Registrable Shares (as defined below) on Form S-3, in which case the Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith) to enable the resale of the Registrable Shares by the Investors on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415 of the Securities Act. "Registrable Shares" means (a) all shares of Common Stock purchased in the Offering and (b) Penalty Shares (as defined below), if any; (b) use commercially reasonable efforts, subject to receipt of the Questionnaire from the Investor, to cause the Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date (with respect to this Section 7.1(b), the term "commercially reasonable efforts" shall mean that the Company shall submit to the SEC, within two business days after the Company learns that no review of the Registration Statement will be made by the staff of the SEC or that the staff has no further comments on the Registration Statement, as the case may be, a request for acceleration of effectiveness of the Registration Statement to a time and date not later than forty-eight (48) hours after the submission of such request); (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith and take all such other actions as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement current and effective and free from any material misstatement or omission to state a material fact for a period (the "Registration Period") not exceeding, with respect to the Investor's Registrable Shares, the earliest of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) the date on which the Investor may sell all Shares then held by the Investor pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act, and (iii) such time as all Registrable Shares held by such Investor have been sold (A) pursuant to a registration statement, (B) to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, and/or (C) in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions and restrictive legends with respect thereto, if any, are removed upon the consummation of such sale; (d) promptly furnish to the Investor with respect to the Shares registered under the Registration Statement such number of copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and such other documents as the Investor may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of all or any of the Shares by the Investor; (e) promptly take such action as may be necessary to qualify, or obtain, an exemption for the Registrable Shares under such of the state securities laws of United States jurisdictions as shall be necessary to qualify, or obtain an exemption for, the sale of the Registrable Shares in states specified in writing by the Investor; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or has not so consented; (f) bear all expenses in connection with the procedures in paragraph (a) through (e) of this Section 7.1 and the registration of the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, regardless of whether a Registration Statement becomes effective, including without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees and expenses (including filings made with the NASD); (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with federal securities and state "blue sky" or securities laws; (iii) expenses of printing (including printing certificates for the Registrable Shares and Prospectuses); 22 (iv) all application and filing fees in connection with listing the Registrable Shares on a national securities exchange or automated quotation system pursuant to the requirements hereof; and (v) all fees and disbursements of counsel of the Company and independent certified public accountants of the Company (including the expenses of any special audit and "cold comfort" letters required by or incident to such performance); provided, however, that each Investor shall be responsible for paying the underwriting commissions or brokerage fees, and taxes of any kind (including, without limitation, transfer taxes) applicable to any disposition, sale or transfer of such Investor's Registrable Shares. The Company shall, in any event, bear its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit, rating agency fees and the fees and expenses of any person, including special experts, retained by the Company; (g) advise the Investor, within two (2) business days by e-mail, fax or other type of communication, and, if requested by the Investor, confirm such advice in writing: (i) after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC delaying or suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for that purpose, or any other order issued by any state securities commission or other regulatory authority suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of such Registrable Shares under state securities or "blue sky" laws; and it will promptly use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other order or to obtain its withdrawal at the earliest possible moment if such stop order or other order should be issued; and (ii) when the Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective; (h) comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC; (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or market, if any, on which equity securities issued by the Company are then listed; and (j) use commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Registrable Shares contemplated hereby and to enable the Investors to sell the Shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. (k) The Company further agrees that, subject to the Company's right to cause a Suspension under Section 7.2 of this Agreement, in the event that the Registration Statement has not (i) in the event of a "no review" of the Registration Statement by the SEC, been declared effective by the SEC within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, or (ii) in the event the Registration Statement is reviewed by the SEC, been declared effective by the SEC within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, unless in either case the failure to become effective is due to the fault of the Investor (each such event referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), a "Registration Default" and the date of such event referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), an "Event Date"), then: (A) if the Registration Default exists for sixty (60) or fewer days from the Event Date, then the Company shall issue additional shares to the Investor equal to one-sixth (1/6th) of one percent (1%) of the number of Shares issued to the Investor at the Closing, per day of the Registration Default period; 23 (B) if the Registration Default exists for sixty-one (61) to ninety (90) days from the Event Date, then, on the ninety-first (91st) day, the Company shall issue further additional shares to the Investor equal to ten percent (10%) of the number of Shares issued to the Investor at the Closing; and (C) if the Registration Default exists for more than ninety (90) days from the Event Date, then the Company shall, on each thirtieth (30th) day after the ninety-first (91st) day, issue further additional shares to the Investor equal to ten percent (10%) of the number of Shares issued to the Investor at the Closing. To the extent that the Company has insufficient authorized but unissued shares available to issue such additional shares (the "Penalty Shares"), or such issuance would result in the Company being required under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350 or other applicable rules to obtain the approval of the Company's stockholders, then the Company shall pay to the Investor cash in lieu of shares, an amount equal to the Share Price per share. The Company shall deliver the Penalty Shares or cash payment to the Investor by the fifth business day after the end of each such period described above. Subject to the Investor's right to specific performance under Section 17, but otherwise notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.3 or any other provision of this Agreement (other than Section 17), the issuance of the Penalty Shares or cash as provided in this Section 7.1(k) shall be the Investor's sole and exclusive remedy in the event of any Registration Default; provided, however, that if the foregoing remedy is deemed unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction then the Investor shall have all other remedies available at law or in equity. (l) The Investor agrees to furnish to the Company a completed Questionnaire at the Closing for use in preparation of the Registration Statement contemplated in this Section 7.1. The Company shall not be required to include the Registrable Shares of the Investor in the Registration Statement and shall not be required to issue any Penalty Shares or pay a cash payment pursuant to Section 7.1(k) so long as the Investor fails to furnish a fully completed Questionnaire at the Closing or thereafter. 7.2 Transfer of Shares; Suspension. (a) The Investor agrees that it will promptly notify the Company of any changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement regarding the Investor or its plan of distribution. (b) Except in the event that paragraph (c) below applies, the Company shall, at all times during the Registration Period, promptly (i) prepare and file from time to time with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that such Registration Statement will not contain an 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 so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Shares being sold thereunder, such Prospectus will not contain an 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 under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) provide the Investor copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i); and (iii) inform each Investor that the 24 Company has complied with its obligations in Section 7.2(b)(i) (or that, if the Company has filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement which has not yet been declared effective, the Company will notify the Investor to that effect, will use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure the effectiveness of such post-effective amendment as promptly as possible and will promptly notify the Investor pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) hereof when the amendment has become effective). (c) Subject to paragraph (d) below, in the event (i) of any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; or (iv) after effectiveness of the Registration Statement, of any event or circumstance which necessitates the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; then the Company shall deliver a notice in writing to the Investor (the "Suspension Notice") to the effect of the foregoing and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice, the Investor will refrain from selling any Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement (a "Suspension") until the Investor's receipt of copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus prepared and filed by the Company, or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the current Prospectus may be used, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such Prospectus. In the event of any Suspension, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, to cause the use of the Prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as reasonably practicable after the delivery of a Suspension Notice to the Investor. In addition to and without limiting any other remedies (including, without limitation, at law or at equity) available to the Investor, the Investor shall be entitled to specific performance in the event that the Company fails to comply with the provisions of this Section 7.2(c). (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 7.2, the Investor shall not be prohibited from selling Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement as a result of Suspensions on more than two occasions (for two separate suspension events) of not more than forty-five days each in any twelve month period. If the Investor is prohibited from selling Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement as a result of Suspensions on more than two occasions in any twelve month period or for more than forty-five days on any one occasion, it shall be deemed a Registration Default, and the Company shall issue Penalty Shares or pay cash to the Investor, as the case may be, in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.1(k) based on the aggregate number of Registrable Shares that have not been previously sold by the Investor. (e) Provided that a Suspension is not then in effect, the Investor may sell Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement, provided that it arranges for delivery of a current Prospectus to the transferee of such Shares. Upon receipt of a request therefor, the Company 25 has agreed to provide, at its own expense, an adequate number of current Prospectuses (including documents incorporated by reference therein) to the Investor and to supply copies to any other parties requiring such Prospectuses. (f) In the event of a sale of Registrable Shares by the Investor under the Registration Statement, the Investor must also deliver to the Company's transfer agent, with a copy to the Company, a Certificate of Subsequent Sale substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, so that the Registrable Shares may be properly transferred. 7.3 Indemnification. For the purpose of this Section 7.3: (i) the term "Selling Stockholder" shall include the Investor, its officers and directors, and any person controlling such Investor; (ii) the term "Registration Statement" shall include any final Prospectus, exhibit, supplement or amendment included in or relating to the Registration Statement referred to in Section 7.1; and (iii) the term "untrue statement" shall include (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (2) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission to state in the Prospectus a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Stockholder from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which such Selling Stockholder may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon (i) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, (ii) any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement, (iii) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Company in this Agreement and (iv) any violation or alleged violation of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Shares, and the Company will promptly reimburse such Selling Stockholder for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend, settling, compromising or paying any such action, proceeding or claim, provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises solely out of, or is based solely upon, an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Selling Stockholder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or the failure of such Selling Stockholder to comply with its covenants and agreements contained in Sections 5.3 or 7.2 hereof respecting sale of the Shares or any statement or omission in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to the Investor at least three business days prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Investor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be liable to any Selling Stockholder for any consequential damages, including lost profits, solely with respect to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which such Selling Stockholder may become subject, arising out of, or 26 based upon, any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Company in this Agreement. (b) The Investor agrees (severally and not jointly with any other Investor) to indemnify and hold harmless the Company (and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement and each director of the Company) from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company (or any such officer, director or controlling person) may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise), insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise solely out of, or are based solely upon, (i) any failure by the Investor to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Sections 5.3 or 7.2 hereof respecting sale of the Shares, (ii) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, but only if and to the extent that such untrue statement was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Investor specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement (provided, however, that the Investor shall not be liable in any such case for any untrue statement in any Registration Statement or Prospectus if such statement has been corrected in writing by the Investor and delivered to the Company at least three business days prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Investor) or (iii) any violation or alleged violation of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Shares by the Investor, and the Investor will reimburse the Company (or such officer, director or controlling person), as the case may be, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend, settling, compromising or paying any such action, proceeding or claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the Investor's aggregate liability pursuant to this subsection (b) and subsection (d) shall be limited to the net amount received by the Investor from the sale of the Shares and (y) the Investor shall not be liable to the Company for any consequential damages, including lost profits, solely with respect to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company (or any officer, director or controlling person as set forth above) may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise), arising out of, or based upon, any failure to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Sections 5.3 or 7.2 hereof respecting sale of the Shares. (c) Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 7.3, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section 7.3 (except to the extent that such omission materially and adversely affects the indemnifying party's ability to defend such action) or from any liability otherwise than under this Section 7.3. Subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of its election to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate, in the opinion of counsel to the indemnifying person, for the same counsel to represent 27 both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, further, that no indemnifying person shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with appropriate local counsel) for all indemnified parties. In no event shall any indemnifying person be liable in respect of any amounts paid in settlement of any action unless the indemnifying person shall have approved the terms of such settlement; provided that, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No indemnifying person shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding. (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.3 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Investor on the other in connection with the statements or omissions or other matters which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, in the case of an untrue statement, whether the untrue statement relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or an Investor on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement. The Company and the Investor agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Investor shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net amount received by the Investor from the sale of the Shares. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Investor's obligations in this subsection to contribute are several in proportion to their sales of Shares to which such loss relates and not joint. (e) The parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge that they are sophisticated business persons who were represented by counsel during the negotiations regarding the provisions hereof including, without limitation, the provisions of this Section 7.3, and are fully informed regarding said provisions. 7.4 Transfer Restrictions. (a) The Investor agrees that it will not effect any sale, offer to sell, solicit offers to buy, dispose of, loan, pledge or grant any right with respect to (collectively, a "Disposition") the Shares or its right to purchase the Shares that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the 28 Securities Act except as contemplated in the Registration Statement referred to in Section 7.1 and as described in this Agreement or otherwise in accordance with the Securities Act. In connection with any transfer of Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, to the Company, to an Affiliate of the Investor or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 7.4(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Shares under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights of the Investor under this Agreement. (b) The Investor agrees to the imprinting of a legend on any of the Shares in the following form until such time as the Investor has resold the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement in compliance with applicable laws or until such time as the legend may be removed pursuant to Section 7.4(d) below: THESE SHARES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED, IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THESE SHARES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN "ACCREDITED INVESTOR" AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. (c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Investor may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares to a financial institution that is an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, the Investor may transfer pledged or secured Shares to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the Investor's expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of the Shares may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Shares, including the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling stockholders thereunder. 29 (d) If requested by the Investor, the Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to issue a certificate to the Investor without the legend set forth in Section 7.4(b), if (i) such Registrable Shares (as defined in Section 7.1(a)) are registered for resale under the 1933 Act, (ii) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer, such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of such Registrable Shares may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act, or (iii) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurance that such Registrable Shares can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144. Following the delivery to any Investor of any certificate representing Registrable Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends, such Investor agrees that any sale of such Registrable Shares shall be made pursuant to the Registration Statement and in accordance with the plan of distribution described therein or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. 7.5 Rule 144. Until the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company no longer has securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, or (ii) the second anniversary of the Closing, the Company agrees with each holder of Registrable Shares to: (a) comply with the requirements of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act with respect to current public information about the Company; and (b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time it is subject to such reporting requirements). 7.6 Termination of Conditions and Obligations. The conditions precedent imposed by Section 5 or this Section 7 upon Dispositions of the Registrable Shares by the Investor shall cease and terminate as to any particular number of the Registrable Shares and the restrictive legend shall be removed when such Registrable Shares shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Shares or at such time as an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company shall have been rendered to the effect that such conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act (provided that such opinion shall not be required if the Company shall be furnished with written documentation reasonably satisfactory to it that such Registrable Shares are being transferred in a customary transaction exempt from registration under Rule 144 under the Securities Act). 8. Notices. Except as specifically permitted by Section 7.1(g), all notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be in writing, shall be mailed (A) if within domestic United States by first-class registered or certified airmail, or nationally recognized overnight express courier, postage prepaid, or by facsimile, or (B) if delivered from outside the United States, by International Federal Express or facsimile, and shall be deemed given (i) if delivered by first-class registered or certified mail domestic, three business days after so mailed, (ii) if delivered by nationally recognized overnight carrier, one business day after so mailed, (iii) if delivered by International Federal Express, two business days after so mailed, and (iv) if delivered by facsimile, upon electric confirmation of receipt and shall be delivered as addressed as follows: (a) if to the Company, to: 30 Endologix, Inc. 13900 Alton Parkway, Suite 122 Irvine, CA 92618 Attn: Chief Executive Officer Tel: 949 ###-###-#### Fax: 949 ###-###-#### with a copy to: Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth 660 Newport Center Drive, Suite 1600 Newport Beach, CA 92660 Attn: Lawrence B.

Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Manhattan, New York for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement hereof), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Each party hereto (including its affiliates, agents, officers, directors and employees) hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. 31 13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and any and all other written or oral agreements relating to such subject matter are expressly cancelled. 14. Finders Fees. Neither the Company nor the Investor nor any affiliate thereof has incurred any obligation which will result in the obligation of the other party to pay any finder's fee or commission in connection with this transaction, except for fees payable by the Company to Adams Harkness, Inc. and Montgomery & Co., LLC. 15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other parties. 16. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the Investors, including without limitation and without the need for an express assignment, affiliates of the Investors. With respect to transfers that are not made pursuant to the Registration Statement, the rights and obligations of an Investor under this Agreement shall be automatically assigned by such Investor to any transferee of all or any portion of such Investor's Registrable Shares who is a Permitted Transferee (as defined below); provided, however, that within two business days prior to the transfer, (i) the Company is provided notice of the transfer including the name and address of the transferee and the number of Registrable Shares transferred; and (ii) that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. (For purposes of this Agreement, a "Permitted Transferee" shall mean any Person who (a) is an "accredited investor," as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act and (b) is a transferee of at least 20,000 Registrable Shares as permitted under the securities laws of the United States). Upon any transfer permitted by this Section 16, the Company shall be obligated to such transferee to perform all of its covenants under this Agreement as if such transferee were an Investor. 17. Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Investor and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Agreement. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agree to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. 18. Independent Nature of Investors' Obligations and Rights. The obligations of the Investor under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Investor under any other Agreement, and the Investor shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Investor under any of the Agreements. The decision of the Investor to purchase the Shares pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Investor independently of any Other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in any of the other Agreements, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Agreements. The Investor acknowledges that no Other Investor has acted as an agent for the Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Other Investor will be acting as an agent of the Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Shares 32 or enforcing its rights under this Agreement. The Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. 19. Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the liability of the Investor arising directly or indirectly, under this Agreement of any and every nature whatsoever shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of the Investor, and that no trustee, officer, other investment vehicle or any other affiliate of the Investor or any investor, shareholder or holder of shares of beneficial interest of the Investor shall be personally liable for any liabilities of the Investor; provided, however, that such limitation of liability shall not apply to acts of fraud by such trustee, officer, affiliate, investor, shareholder or holder of beneficial interests of the Investor. 20. Expenses. Each of the Company and the Investor shall bear its own expenses in connection with the preparation and negotiation of the Agreement. 21. Replacement of Shares. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares. 22. Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement or the Investor enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. 23. Definitions. In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Agreement, for all purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings indicated in this Section 23: "business day" means any day except Saturday, Sunday and any day which shall be a federal legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close.

Termination. (a) This Agreement may be terminated and the sale and purchase of the Shares abandoned at any time prior to the Closing, by written notice of any individual Investor if the Closing has not occurred within five (5) business days of the Subscription Date (other than as a result of the failure on the part of the party giving such notice of termination to perform its covenants and obligations under this Agreement in all material respects); provided, however, that the abandonment of the sale and purchase of the Shares shall be applicable only to such Investor providing such written notice. (b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 25, all further obligations of the parties shall terminate; provided, however, that no party shall be relieved of any liability arising from any breach by such party of any provision of this Agreement. 26. Additional Investor Considerations. (a) The investments in the Company being made by each Investor pursuant to this Agreement, and any subsequent investments in the Company by an Investor or its affiliates after the date hereof, is being made notwithstanding any engagement, prior to or subsequent to the date hereof, by the Company, of any Investor or its affiliates as financial advisor, agent or underwriter to the Company. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Investor or its affiliates shall be restricted in any way from engaging in any brokerage, investment advisory, financial advisory, anti-raid advisory, financing, asset management, trading, market making, arbitrage and other similar activities conducted in the ordinary course of its business. (b) Notwithstanding any duty otherwise existing at law or in equity (including, without limitation, by reason of an employee or partner of an affiliate of any Investor serving on the board of directors of the Company or as an observer thereto), employees and partners of any Investor or its affiliates may act as a director, officer, employee or advisor of any corporation, a trustee of any trust, a partner of any partnership or member of a limited liability company; may receive compensation for his, her or its services as an advisor with respect to, or participation in profits derived from, the investments of any such corporation, trust, partnership or company; and may acquire, invest in, hold and sell securities of any entity; provided that no such employee or partner of any Investor or its affiliates shall disclose any confidential or proprietary information of the Company, acquired pursuant to such service on the board of directors of the Company or as an observer thereto or pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise as a stockholder of the Company. The Company shall not have by virtue of this Agreement, any right, title or interest in or to such other corporation, trust, partnership, company or investment. (c) Except as otherwise required by law, the Company agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the appropriate Investor or its affiliates in each instance, (i) use in advertising, publicity, or otherwise the name of any Investor or its affiliates, or any partner or employee of any Investor or its affiliates, nor any trade name, trademark, trade device, service mark, symbol or any abbreviation, contraction or simulation thereof owned by any Investor or its affiliates, or (ii) represent, directly or indirectly, that any product or any service provided by the Company has 34 been approved or endorsed by any Investor or its affiliates. This provision shall survive termination of the Agreement. (d) The Company agrees that, if any Investor or its affiliates could reasonably be deemed to be an "underwriter," as defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, in connection with any registration of Registrable Securities of any Investor or its affiliates pursuant to Section 7.1 of this Agreement, then the Company will cooperate with such Investor or its affiliates in allowing such Investor or its affiliates to conduct customary "underwriter's due diligence" with respect to the Company and satisfy its obligations in respect thereof. The Company will also include appropriate disclosure, which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Investor, in any registration statement in which an Investor or its affiliates is a selling stockholder with respect to such Investor or its affiliates' status as an underwriter and/or broker-dealer. (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Investor may transfer all or a portion of its Shares at any time to an affiliate without a written opinion and without compliance with Section 7.4; provided, however, that any such (a) transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and (b) transfer is in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws and the transferee is an "accredited investor" as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Any Investor may hold its investment in nominee form. 35 Exhibit A CONTENT OF OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE COMPANY (i) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
