The Company is in material compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 currently applicable to the Company.

The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 1934 Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including the Subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company's most recently filed periodic report under the 1934 Act, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company's certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the 1934 Act (such date, the "Evaluation Date"). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the 1934 Act 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 (as such term is defined in Item 308 of Regulation S-B) or, to the Company's Knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company's internal controls. The Company maintains and will continue to maintain a standard system of accounting established and administered in accordance with GAAP and the applicable requirements of the 1934 Act. 4.28 Compliance With Laws. The Company is in compliance with all foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations applicable to its operations and with respect to which compliance is a condition of engaging in its business, except to the extent that failure to comply would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 4.29 Disclosures. Neither the Company nor any Person acting on its behalf has provided the Investors or their agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information, other than the terms of the transactions contemplated hereby. The written materials delivered to the Investors in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 5. Representations and Warranties of the Investors. Each of the Investors hereby severally, and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company that: 5.1 Organization and Existence. Such Investor is a validly existing corporation, limited partnership or limited liability company and has all requisite corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority to invest in the Securities pursuant to this Agreement. 5.2 Authorization.

Such Investor acknowledges receipt of copies of the SEC Filings. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigation conducted by such Investor shall modify, limit or otherwise affect such Investor's right to rely on the Company's representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. 5.6 Restricted Securities. Such Investor understands that the Securities are characterized as "restricted securities" under the U.S. federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the 1933 Act only in certain limited circumstances. 5.7 Legends. It is understood that, except as provided below, certificates evidencing the Securities may bear the following or any similar legend: (a) "The securities represented hereby may not be transferred unless (i) such securities have been registered for sale pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (ii) such securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k), or (iii) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to it that such transfer may lawfully be made without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or qualification under applicable state securities laws."

Until such time as it no longer holds any Notes, such Investor shall not, and shall cause its Trading Affiliates not to, engage, directly or indirectly, in a Prohibited Transaction. Such Investor acknowledges that the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Section 5.11 are being made for the benefit of the Investors as well as the Company and that each of the other Investors shall have an independent right to assert any claims against such Investor arising out of any breach or violation of the provisions of this Section 5.11. 6.

Nothing in this Section 6.3 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. 7. Covenants and Agreements of the Company. 7.1 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for the conversion of the Notes and the exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time equal the Conversion Shares issuable upon the due conversion of the Notes and the Warrant Shares issuable upon the due exercise of the Warrants in accordance with their respective terms. 7.2 Reports. The Company will furnish to the Investors and/or their assignees such information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries as from time to time may reasonably be requested by the Investors and/or their assignees; provided, however, that the Company shall not disclose material nonpublic information to the Investors, or to advisors to or representatives of the Investors, unless prior to disclosure of such information the Company identifies such information as being material nonpublic information and provides the Investors, such advisors and representatives with the opportunity to accept or refuse to accept such material nonpublic information for review and any Investor wishing to obtain such information enters into an appropriate confidentiality agreement with the Company with respect thereto. 7.3 No Conflicting Agreements. The Company will not take any action, enter into any agreement or make any commitment that would conflict or interfere in any material respect with the Company's obligations to the Investors under the Transaction Documents. 7.4 Insurance.

Promptly following the date hereof, the Company shall take all necessary action to cause the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares to be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market no later than the Closing Date. Further, if the Company applies to have its Common Stock or other securities traded on any other principal stock exchange or market, it shall include in such application the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares and will take such other action as is necessary to cause such -19- Common Stock to be so listed. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Market and, in accordance, therewith, will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply in all respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of such market or exchange, as applicable. 7.7 Termination of Covenants. The provisions of Sections 7.2 through 7.5 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the date on which the Company's obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement to register or maintain the effectiveness of any registration covering the Registrable Securities (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) shall terminate. 7.8 Removal of Legends. Upon the earlier of (i) registration for resale pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or (ii) Rule 144(k) becoming available the Company shall (A) deliver to the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the "Transfer Agent") irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall issue certificates representing the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares without legends upon receipt by such Transfer Agent of the Notes and/or the Warrants or any legended certificates previously issued for such shares, together with either (1) a customary representation by the Investor that Rule 144(k) applies to the shares of Common Stock to be represented thereby or (2) a statement by the Investor that such Investor has sold the shares of Common Stock represented thereby in accordance with the Plan of Distribution contained in the Registration Statement, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more blanket opinions to the effect that the issuance of such unlegended certificates in such circumstances may be effected under the 1933 Act. From and after the earlier of such dates, upon an Investor's written request, the Company shall promptly cause replacement Securities to be issued without restrictive legends and/or legended certificates representing previously issued Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares to be replaced with certificates which do not bear such restrictive legends, and Conversion Shares subsequently issued upon due conversion of the Notes and Warrant Shares subsequently issued upon due exercise of the Warrants shall not bear such restrictive legends provided the provisions of either clause (i) or clause (ii) above, as applicable, are satisfied with respect to such Conversion Shares and/or Warrant Shares. When the Company is required to cause unlegended Securities to replace previously issued legended Securities, if unlegended Securities are not delivered to an Investor within three (3) Business Days of submission by that Investor of legended Securities and all other required documents to the Transfer Agent as provided above (or to the Company, in the case of the Notes and the Warrants), the Company shall be liable to the Investor for liquidated damages in an amount equal to 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price of the Securities evidenced thereby for each thirty (30) day period (or portion thereof) beyond such three (3) Business Day that the unlegended Securities have not been so delivered. 7.9 Subsequent Equity Sales. From the date hereof until ninety (90) days after the Effective Date, without the consent of the Investors, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents; provided, however, the ninety (90) day period set forth in this Section shall be extended for the number of days during such period in which (i) trading in the Common Stock is suspended by any exchange or market on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted, or (ii) following the Effective Date, the -20- Registration Statement is not effective or the prospectus included in the Registration Statement may not be used by the Investors for the resale of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares due to the exercise of the Company's right under the Registration Rights Agreement to institute an Allowed Delay (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) or otherwise; provided, further, that the restrictions on issuing shares pursuant to this Section 7.9 shall not apply to (i) an acquisition of or combination with another entity or (ii) the issuance of stock options to the Company's employees, consultants or directors. 7.10 Equal Treatment of Investors. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Investor by the Company and negotiated separately by each Investor, and is intended for the Company to treat the Investors as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Investors acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise. 7.11 Strategic Investor Board Nomination Rights. (a) Board Observer Rights. For so long as the Strategic Investor or its affiliates hold in the aggregate at least 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Company (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar events) that the Strategic Investor purchased pursuant to this Agreement, the Strategic Investor shall have the right, but not the obligation to from time to time require, in writing, the Company to permit a representative of the Strategic Investor (the "Observer") to attend all meetings of its Board of Directors (whether in person, telephonic or other) and any committees thereof in a nonvoting observer capacity. Any Observer must be approved by the written consent of the Company's Nominating, Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. For the purpose of this calculation, the Strategic Investor shall be deemed to hold the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which could be acquired by the Strategic Investor upon conversion of the convertible securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement notwithstanding any limitations on conversion of such convertible securities contained therein. During such time as the Strategic Investor elects to appoint an Observer pursuant to the provisions set forth herein, the Company shall provide the Observer, concurrently with the members of the Board of Directors, with copies of all notices, minutes, consents, and other materials that it provides to such members; provided, however, the Board of Directors shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to meet in confidential executive session, which the Strategic Investor's representative will not be entitled to attend, if the Board of Directors shall determine in good faith, based upon the advice of counsel, that such confidential executive session is (i) necessary to preserve attorney-client privilege, (ii) in the best interests of the Company and where the Strategic Investor has a direct interest in the subject matter under discussion that is divergent from the interests of the Company, or (iii) necessary to discharge the directors' fiduciary duties; and provided further that the Observer agrees to hold in confidence and trust and to act in a fiduciary manner with respect to all information so provided. The Company shall notify the -21- Strategic Investor, in advance, of such confidential executive session and the specific rationale for making such meeting confidential. (b) Board Representative Rights. For so long as the Strategic Investor or its affiliates hold in the aggregate at least 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar events), the Strategic Investor shall have the right, but not the obligation to request that one (1) representative of the Strategic Investor (the "Board Representative") be appointed to the Company's Board of Directors. For the purpose of this calculation, the Strategic Investor shall be deemed to hold the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which could be acquired by the Strategic Investor upon conversion of the convertible securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement notwithstanding any limitations on conversion of such convertible securities contained therein. Any Board Representative must be approved by the Company's Nominating, Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The appointment of the Board Representative will be made by the Company's Nominating, Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee in accordance with the charter of such committee. If the Board Representative is not approved by the Company's Nominating, Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee or if the Board Representative is not elected or re-elected to the Company's Board of Directors then the Strategic Investor shall have the right to request that a different Board Representative by appointed to the Company's Board of Directors. Following the initial appointment, the Company's Nominating, Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee will determine whether or not to nominate such Board Representative for election to another term in accordance with its charter and in the same manner as it nominates the other members of the Company's Board of Directors to additional terms. 7.12 Right of First Refusal. (a) For so long as the Strategic Investor or its affiliates hold in the aggregate at least 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Company (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar events) that the Strategic Investor purchased pursuant to this Agreement, the Strategic Investor shall have the rights set forth in this Section 7.12. For the purpose of this calculation, the Strategic Investor shall be deemed to hold the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which could be acquired by the Strategic Investor upon conversion of the convertible securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement notwithstanding any limitations on conversion of such convertible securities contained therein. If the Company proposes to sell any Common Stock Equivalents in a private placement transaction (a "Private Placement"), the Company shall promptly deliver a written notice (the "Financing Notice") to the Strategic Investor. The Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed Private Placement, including, without limitation, the number and type of Common Stock Equivalents to be sold, the nature of such sale, the consideration to be paid, the name and address of each prospective purchaser, and any other material terms and conditions upon which such sale is to be made, along with copies of all material proposed agreements relating to such sale, including but not limited to, purchase agreements and other agreements or documents requested by the Strategic Investor. -22- (b) The Strategic Investor shall have the option, exercisable upon written notice to the Company within ten (10) days after delivery of the Financing Notice, to purchase some or all of the Common Stock Equivalents. The purchase price at which the Common Stock Equivalents are offered to the Strategic Investor, and the other terms of sale, shall be as specified in the Financing Notice. 8. Survival and Indemnification. 8.1 Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 8.2 Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof) (collectively, "Losses") to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents, and will reimburse any such Person for all such amounts as they are incurred by such Person. 8.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person (the "Indemnified Person") of notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8.2, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing and the Company shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Person so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Company is materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Company and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel; or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Indemnified Person representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Company shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such proceeding. -23- 9. Miscellaneous. 9.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by a party hereto without the prior written consent of the Company or the Investors, as applicable, provided, however, that an Investor may assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder in whole or in part to an Affiliate or to a third party acquiring some or all of its Securities in a private transaction without the prior written consent of the Company or the other Investors, after notice duly given by such Investor to the Company provided, that no such assignment or obligation shall affect the obligations of such Investor hereunder.

The provisions of this paragraph (e) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions. 9 (f) In case the Company shall fix a payment date for the making of a distribution to all holders of Common Stock (including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation) of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than cash dividends or cash distributions payable out of consolidated earnings or earned surplus), or subscription rights or warrants, the Conversion Price to be in effect after such payment date shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such payment date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by the Market Price of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Board in good faith) of said assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed, or of such subscription rights or warrants, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by such Market Price immediately prior to such payment date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a payment date is fixed. (g) An adjustment to the Conversion Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment. (h) In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4, the Holder shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon conversion of this Note shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions contained in this Note. (i) Except as provided in Section 4(j) hereof, if and whenever the Company shall issue or sell, or is, in accordance with any of Sections 4(i)(i) through 4(i)(vii) hereof, deemed to have issued or sold, any Additional Shares of Common Stock (as defined below) for no consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issuance or sale, then and in each such case (a "Trigger Issuance") the then-existing Conversion Price, shall be reduced, as of the close of business on the effective date of the Trigger Issuance, to a price determined as follows: (A x B) + D Adjusted Conversion Price = ----------- A+C where "A" equals the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, including Additional Shares of Common Stock (as defined below) deemed to be issued hereunder, immediately preceding such Trigger Issuance; "B" equals the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding such Trigger Issuance; "C" equals the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or deemed issued hereunder as a result of the Trigger Issuance; and 10 "D" equals the aggregate consideration, if any, received or deemed to be received by the Company upon such Trigger Issuance; provided, however, that in no event shall the Conversion Price after giving effect to such Trigger Issuance be greater than the Conversion Price in effect prior to such Trigger Issuance. For purposes of this subsection (i), "Additional Shares of Common Stock" shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued or sold by the Company or deemed to be issued or sold pursuant to this subsection (i), other than Excluded Issuances (as defined in subsection (j) hereof). For purposes of this Section 4(i), the following subsections (i)(i) to (i)(viii) shall also be applicable (subject, in each such case, to the provisions of Section 4(j) hereof): (i) In case at any time the Company shall in any manner grant (directly and not by assumption in a merger or otherwise) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase, or any options for the purchase of, Common Stock or any stock or security convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (such warrants, rights or options being called "Options" and such convertible or exchangeable stock or securities being called "Convertible Securities") whether or not such Options or the right to convert or exchange any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the sum (which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration) of (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such Options, plus (y) the aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus (z), in the case of such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options) shall be less than the Conversion Price immediately prior to the time of the granting of such Options, then the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be deemed to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of granting of such Options or the issuance of such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the Conversion Price. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 4(i)(iii), no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities. (ii) In case the Company shall in any manner issue (directly and not by assumption in a merger or otherwise) or sell any Convertible Securities, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange (determined by dividing (i) the sum (which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration) of (x) the total amount received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or 11 sale of such Convertible Securities, plus (y) the aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities) shall be less than the Conversion Price immediately prior to the time of such issuance or sale, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the Conversion Price, provided that (a) except as otherwise provided in subsection 4(i)(iii), no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities and (b) no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of the issuance or sale of Convertible Securities upon exercise of any Options to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which adjustments of the Conversion Price have been made pursuant to the other provisions of Section 4(j). (iii) Upon the happening of any of the following events, namely, if the purchase price provided for in any Option referred to in subsection 4(i)(i) hereof, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to in subsections 4(i)(i) or 4(i)(ii), or the rate at which Convertible Securities referred to in subsections 4(i)(i) or 4(i)(ii) are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock shall change at any time (including, but not limited to, changes under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. On the termination of any Option for which any adjustment was made pursuant to this subsection 4(i) or any right to convert or exchange Convertible Securities for which any adjustment was made pursuant to this subsection 4(i) (including without limitation upon the redemption or purchase for consideration of such Convertible Securities by the Company), the Conversion Price then in effect hereunder shall forthwith be changed to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at the time of such termination had such Option or Convertible Securities, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such termination, never been issued. (iv) Subject to the provisions of this Section 4(i), in case the Company shall declare a dividend or make any other distribution upon any stock of the Company (other than the Common Stock) payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been issued or sold without consideration; provided, that if any adjustment is made to the Conversion Price as a result of a declaration of a dividend and such dividend is rescinded, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately readjusted to the Conversion Price in effect had such dividend not been declared. (v) In case any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the gross amount received by the Company therefor, without deduction therefrom of any expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the Company in 12 connection therewith. In case any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company shall be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board, after deduction of any expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection therewith. In case any Options shall be issued in connection with the issuance and sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integral transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, such Options shall be deemed to have been issued for such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. If Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold by the Company and, in connection therewith, other Options or Convertible Securities (the "Additional Rights") are issued, then the consideration received or deemed to be received by the Company shall be reduced by the fair market value of the Additional Rights (as determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model or another method mutually agreed to by the Company and the Holder). The Board shall respond promptly, in writing, to an inquiry by the Holder as to the fair market value of the Additional Rights. In the event that the Board and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of the Additional Rights, the Company and the Holder shall jointly select an appraiser, who is experienced in such matters. The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and the cost of such appraiser shall be borne evenly by the Company and the Holder. (vi) In case the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be. (vii) The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the disposition of any such shares (other than the cancellation or retirement thereof) shall be considered an issuance or sale of Common Stock for the purpose of this subsection (i). (viii) Notwithstanding any other provision in this subsection (i) to the contrary, if a reduction in the Conversion Price pursuant to this subsection (i) (other than as set forth in this clause (viii)) would require the Company, to issue in excess of 19.9% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Closing Date that are held by non-affiliates at a conversion price less than fair market value (as defined in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350) (the "Conversion Limitation") or to otherwise obtain stockholder approval of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement to be consummated on the Closing Date pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(i) and such stockholder approval has not been obtained, (i) the Conversion Price shall be reduced to the maximum extent that would not require stockholder approval under such Rule, and (ii) the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such stockholder approval as soon as reasonably practicable, including by calling a special meeting of stockholders to vote on such Conversion Price adjustment. In no event shall the Company be 13 obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock in excess of the Conversion Limitation until stockholder approval has been obtained. Unless stockholder approval has been obtained, in the event that any Holder converts this Note or any portion thereof pursuant to this Section 4 and such conversion would result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Conversion Limitation then the Company shall redeem the portion of the Note in excess of the Conversion Limitation, together with interest thereon (the "Redeemed Portion"). The Company shall redeem the Redeemed Portion at face value together with accrued interest thereon at the interest rate then applicable to this Note in no more than four equal installments, the last one of which shall be paid no later than the Stated Maturity Date. The Redeemed Portion shall be deemed to continue to be outstanding hereunder until the Redeemed Portion is paid in full. (j) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to make any adjustment of the Conversion Price in the case of the issuance of (A) capital stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued to directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company in connection with their service as directors of the Company, their employment by the Company or their retention as consultants by the Company pursuant to an equity compensation program approved by the Board of Directors of the Company or the compensation committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, (B) shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion or exercise of Options or Convertible Securities issued prior to the date hereof, provided such securities are not amended after the date hereof to increase the number of shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder or to lower the exercise or conversion price thereof, (C) securities issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and securities issued upon the exercise or conversion of those securities, and (D) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable by reason of a dividend, stock split or other distribution on shares of Common Stock (but only to the extent that such a dividend, split or distribution results in an adjustment in the Conversion Price pursuant to the other provisions of this Note) (collectively, "Excluded Issuances"). (k) In case at any time: (i) the Company shall declare any dividend upon its Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company payable in cash or stock or make any other distribution to the holders of its Common Stock or any such other class or series of capital stock; (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; or (iii) there shall be any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any acquisition or a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give, by delivery in person or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company, (a) at least 20 Business Days' prior written notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution or subscription rights or for determining rights to vote in respect of 14 any event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 4(k) and (b) in the case of any event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 4(k), at least 20 Business Days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (a) shall also specify, in the case of any such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, the date on which the holders of Common Stock or such other class or series of capital stock shall be entitled thereto and such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (b) shall also specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock and such other series or class of capital stock shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock and other stock for securities or other property deliverable upon consummation of the applicable event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 4(k). (l) Upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, then and in each such case the Company shall give prompt written notice thereof, by delivery in person or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company, which notice shall state the Conversion Price resulting from such adjustment and setting forth in reasonable detail the method upon which such calculation is based. (m) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of this Note. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and that the Company will from time to time take all such action as may be requisite to assure that the par value per share of the Common Stock is at all times equal to or less than the Conversion Price in effect at the time. The Company shall take all such action as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirement of any national securities exchange or trading market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company shall not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Conversion Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable after such action upon conversion of this Note would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by the Company's Certificate of Incorporation. (n) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the holders thereof for any issuance tax in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the Holder. When the Company is required to issue Conversion Shares hereunder, if: (1) certificates representing such Conversion Shares are not delivered to the Holder within three (3) Business Days of the Automatic Conversion Date or the Optional Conversion Date, as applicable, and (2) prior to the time such certificates are received, the Holder, or any third party on behalf of such Holder or for the Holder's account, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of such certificates (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder (for costs incurred either directly by such Holder or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for Common Stock as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage 15 commissions, if any) exceeds the proceeds received by the Holder as a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In. (o) The Company will not at any time close its transfer books against the transfer, as applicable, of this Note or of any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of this Note in any manner which interferes with the timely conversion of this Note, except as may otherwise be required to comply with applicable securities laws. 5. Covenants.

(iii) The Company shall promptly notify the Holder of the occurrence of any Event of Default or any event which, with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, which notice shall include a written statement as to such occurrence, specifying the nature thereof and the action (if any) which is proposed to be taken with respect thereto. (iv) The Company shall promptly notify the Holder of any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity or by or before any governmental instrumentality or other agency against the Company or any Subsidiary or to which the Company or any Subsidiary may be subject which alleges damages in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand United States Dollars ($250,000). (v) The Company shall promptly notify the Holder of any default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 16 (vi) The Company shall and shall cause each Subsidiary to promptly take any and all actions necessary to execute any definitive documentation (which documentation shall include customary representations, warranties, covenants, conditions and agreements, and any UCC financing statements) reasonably requested by the Holder, for obtaining the benefits of the Security Documents, subject to the terms and conditions stated therein.

(ix) The Company shall and shall cause each Subsidiary to comply with all laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to which they may be subject except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (x) The Company shall and shall cause each Subsidiary to use commercially reasonable efforts to do all things necessary to maintain, preserve, protect and keep its properties in good repair, working order and condition and use commercially reasonable efforts to make all necessary and proper repairs, renewals and replacements so that its business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted. (xi) At its own expense, the Company shall and shall cause each Subsidiary to make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver any documents and take all commercially reasonable actions necessary or required to maintain its ownership rights in its Intellectual Property, including, without limitation, (i) any action reasonably required to protect the Intellectual Property in connection with any infringement, suspected infringement, passing off, act of unfair competition or other unlawful interference with the rights of the Company or any Subsidiary in and to such Intellectual Property, and (ii) any registrations with the United States Patent & Trademark Office and any corresponding foreign patent and/or trademark office required for the Company or any Subsidiary to carry on its business as presently conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted.

(xii) Promptly after the occurrence thereof, the Company shall and shall cause each Subsidiary to inform the Holder of the following material developments to the extent such events are not disclosed by the Company in its SEC Filings: (i) entering into material agreements outside the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (ii) any issuance of debt securities by the Company or any Subsidiary, (iii) the incurrence of any Indebtedness, other than 17 Permitted Indebtedness, by the Company or any Subsidiary, (iv) a change in the number of the Board of Directors of the Company, (v) a sale, lease or transfer of any material portion of the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary and (vi) any change in ownership of any Subsidiary (specifying the details of any such change, including the identity and ownership amount of any new owner). (b) So long as any amount due under this Note is outstanding and until the earlier of (i) the indefeasible payment in full of all amounts payable by the Company hereunder and (ii) the conversion of this Note, without the prior written consent of the Majority Holders (for purposes of this Section 5(b), any Company Notes held by any employee, director or officer of the Company or any Subsidiary shall not be deemed to be outstanding): (i) The Company shall not and shall cause each Subsidiary not to create, incur, guarantee, issue, assume or in any manner become liable in respect of any Indebtedness, other than Permitted Indebtedness. (ii) The Company shall not and shall cause each Subsidiary not to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien upon any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired other than (i) Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents and (ii) Permitted Liens. The Company shall not, and shall cause each Subsidiary not to, be bound by any agreement which limits the ability of the Company or any Subsidiary to grant Liens. (iii) The Company shall not and shall cause each Subsidiary not to, directly or indirectly, enter into or permit to exist any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service (other than service as an employee)) with, or for the benefit of, any of its Affiliates other than a wholly owned Subsidiary, except for consulting arrangements with directors approved by the Board. 18 (iv) The Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, declare or pay any dividends on account of any shares of any class or series of its capital stock now or hereafter outstanding, or set aside or otherwise deposit or invest any sums for such purpose, or redeem, retire, defease, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of any class of its capital stock (or set aside or otherwise deposit or invest any sums for such purpose) for any consideration or apply or set apart any sum, or make any other distribution (by reduction of capital or otherwise) in respect of any such shares or pay any interest, premium if any, or principal of any Indebtedness or redeem, retire, defease, repurchase or otherwise acquire any Indebtedness (or set aside or otherwise deposit or invest any sums for such purpose) for any consideration or apply or set apart any sum, or make any other payment in respect thereof or agree to do any of the foregoing (each of the foregoing is herein called a "Restricted Payment"); provided, that (i) the Company may make payments of interest, premium if any, and principal of the Notes in accordance with the terms hereof, (ii) provided that no Event of Default or event which, with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company and its Subsidiaries may make regularly scheduled payments of interest and principal of any Permitted Indebtedness, (iii) any Subsidiary directly or indirectly wholly owned by the Company may pay dividends on its capital stock and (iv) the Company may repurchase capital stock from a former employee in connection with the termination or other departure of such employee, strictly in accordance with the terms of any agreement entered into with such employee and in effect on the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), provided that (A) such repurchase is approved by a majority of the Board, (B) payments permitted under this clause (iv) shall not exceed Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ($500,000) in the aggregate, and (C) no such payment may be made if an Event of Default or an event which, with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such payment.

Notwithstanding the giving of any notice of redemption, the Holder shall have the right to convert the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note pursuant to Section 4 at any time on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the Redemption Date. The Holder shall not be required to surrender this Note prior to payment of the Redemption Price. Unless the principal and interest on this Note are converted pursuant to Section 4 prior to the Redemption Date, upon the indefeasible payment in full of the Redemption Price to the Holder as provided in this Section 3, this Note shall be deemed to have been paid in full and shall no longer be outstanding for any purpose. (c) From and after the occurrence of Change of Control, the Majority Holders shall have the right to require the Company to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Company Notes at a redemption price equal 100% of the principal amount of the Company Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest (the "Forced Redemption Price"); provided that such redemption applies to all of the Company Notes then outstanding on the same terms. In the event that the Majority Holders elect to require the Company to redeem the Company Notes pursuant to this Section 3(c), the Majority Holders shall deliver written notice thereof to the Company and the other holders of the Company Notes (the "Forced Redemption Notice") specifying the date on which such redemption shall occur (the "Forced Redemption Date") which date shall not be less than ten (10) days after the date of such Forced Redemption Notice. On the Forced Redemption Date, the Company shall pay the Forced Redemption Price to the Holder in immediately available funds to an account previously specified in writing by the Holder unless the Holder has converted the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note on or prior to the Forced Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the giving of any Forced Redemption Notice, the Holder shall have the right to convert the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note pursuant to Section 4 at any time on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the Forced Redemption Date. The Holder shall not be required to surrender this Note prior to payment of the Forced Redemption Price. Unless the principal and interest on this Note are converted pursuant to Section 4 prior to the Forced Redemption Date, upon the indefeasible payment in full of the Forced Redemption Price to the Holder as provided in this Section 3, this Note shall be deemed to have been paid in full and shall no longer be outstanding for any purpose. (d) In the event that the Company consummates a New Financing, the Holder shall have the right to exchange all, but not less than all, of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon into the securities issued in the New Financing on a dollar-for-dollar basis. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the closing of the New Financing, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a written notice of its intention to effect a New Financing (a "Pre-Notice"), which Pre-Notice shall ask such Holder if it wants to review the details of such New Financing (such additional notice, a "Subsequent Financing Notice"). Upon the request of an Investor for a 8 Subsequent Financing Notice, and only upon a request by such Investor, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one Business Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to such Investor. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of the New Financing, including the expected closing date thereof (such closing date, the "Exchange Date") and attached to which shall be a term sheet and any proposed agreements or documents relating thereto. The Holder shall notify the Company no later than 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the Exchange Date of its election to exchange this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon into the securities to be issued in the New Financing, subject to completion of mutually acceptable documentation. The Holder shall have the right to withdraw its election any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on he Business Day immediately preceding the Exchange Date. 4. Conversion. (a) Prior to the Stated Maturity Date, the Holder shall have the right, at its option at any time, to convert some or all of the Note into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is obtained by: dividing the principal amount of this Note to be converted by the Conversion Price then in effect. The rights of conversion set forth in this Section 4 shall be exercised by the Holder by giving written notice to the Company that the Holder elects to convert a stated amount of this Note into Common Stock and by surrender of this Note (or, in lieu thereof, by delivery of an appropriate lost security affidavit in the event this Note shall have been lost or destroyed) to the Company at its principal office (or such other office or agency of the Company as the Company may designate by notice in writing to the Holder) at any time on the date set forth in such notice (which date shall not be earlier than the Company's receipt of such notice), together with a statement of the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issued. Upon any conversion of this Note, the Company shall, at its option, pay any accrued or unpaid interest on the portion of this Note so converted in cash or in Interest Shares, with each Interest Share having a value equal to the Market Price on the conversion date. (b) Promptly after receipt of the written notice referred to in Section 4(a) above and surrender of this Note (or, in lieu thereof, by delivery of an appropriate lost security affidavit in the event this Note shall have been lost or destroyed), but in no event more than three (3) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and delivered, to the Holder, registered in such name or names as the Holder may direct in writing, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such portion of this Note. To the extent permitted by law, such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected, as of the close of business on the date on which such written notice shall have been received by the Company and this Note shall have been surrendered as aforesaid (or, in lieu thereof, an appropriate lost security affidavit has been delivered to the Company), and at such time, the rights of the Holder shall cease with respect to the principal amount of the Notes being converted, and the Person or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby. 9 (c) No fractional shares shall be issued upon any conversion of this Note into Common Stock. If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 4(c), be delivered upon such conversion, the Company, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the Market Price of such fractional share of Common Stock. In case the principal amount of this Note exceeds the principal amount being converted, the Company shall, upon such conversion, execute and deliver to the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Note for the principal amount of this Note surrendered which is not to be converted. (d) If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while this Note is outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then (i) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective shall be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such change and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such change and (ii) the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be adjusted by multiplying the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective by a fraction, the numerator of which is shall be the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective and the denominator of which shall be the Conversion Price in effect immediately after giving effect to such change, calculated in accordance with clause (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. (e) If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another Person shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Conversion Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion of this Note such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Conversion Shares equal to the number of Conversion Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion of this Note, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor 10 corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder, at the last address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase, without regard to any conversion limitation specified in Section 4, and the other obligations under this Note. The provisions of this paragraph (e) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions. (f) In case the Company shall fix a payment date for the making of a distribution to all holders of Common Stock (including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation) of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than cash dividends or cash distributions payable out of consolidated earnings or earned surplus), or subscription rights or warrants, the Conversion Price to be in effect after such payment date shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such payment date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by the Market Price of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Board in good faith) of said assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed, or of such subscription rights or warrants, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by such Market Price immediately prior to such payment date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a payment date is fixed. (g) An adjustment to the Conversion Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment. (h) In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4, the Holder shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon conversion of this Note shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions contained in this Note. (i) Except as provided in Section 4(j) hereof, if and whenever the Company shall issue or sell, or is, in accordance with any of Sections 4(i)(i) through 4(i)(vii) hereof, deemed to have issued or sold, any Additional Shares of Common Stock (as defined below) for no consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issuance or sale, then and in each such case (a "Trigger Issuance") the then-existing Conversion Price, shall be reduced, as of the close of business on the effective date of the Trigger Issuance, to a price determined as follows: Adjusted Conversion Price = (A x B) + D ----------- A+C where 11 "A" equals the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, including Additional Shares of Common Stock (as defined below) deemed to be issued hereunder, immediately preceding such Trigger Issuance; "B" equals the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding such Trigger Issuance; "C" equals the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or deemed issued hereunder as a result of the Trigger Issuance; and "D" equals the aggregate consideration, if any, received or deemed to be received by the Company upon such Trigger Issuance; provided, however, that in no event shall the Conversion Price after giving effect to such Trigger Issuance be greater than the Conversion Price in effect prior to such Trigger Issuance. For purposes of this subsection (i), "Additional Shares of Common Stock" shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued or sold by the Company or deemed to be issued or sold pursuant to this subsection (i), other than Excluded Issuances (as defined in subsection (j) hereof). For purposes of this Section 4(i), the following subsections (i)(i) to (i)(viii) shall also be applicable (subject, in each such case, to the provisions of Section 4(j) hereof): (i) In case at any time the Company shall in any manner grant (directly and not by assumption in a merger or otherwise) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase, or any options for the purchase of, Common Stock or any stock or security convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (such warrants, rights or options being called "Options" and such convertible or exchangeable stock or securities being called "Convertible Securities") whether or not such Options or the right to convert or exchange any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the sum (which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration) of (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such Options, plus (y) the aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus (z), in the case of such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options) shall be less than the Conversion Price immediately prior to the time of the granting of such Options, then the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be deemed to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of granting of such Options or the issuance of such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the Conversion Price. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 4(i)(iii), 12 no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities. (ii) In case the Company shall in any manner issue (directly and not by assumption in a merger or otherwise) or sell any Convertible Securities, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange (determined by dividing (i) the sum (which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration) of (x) the total amount received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus (y) the aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities) shall be less than the Conversion Price immediately prior to the time of such issuance or sale, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the Conversion Price, provided that (a) except as otherwise provided in subsection 4(i)(iii), no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities and (b) no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of the issuance or sale of Convertible Securities upon exercise of any Options to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which adjustments of the Conversion Price have been made pursuant to the other provisions of Section 4(j). (iii) Upon the happening of any of the following events, namely, if the purchase price provided for in any Option referred to in subsection 4(i)(i) hereof, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to in subsections 4(i)(i) or 4(i)(ii), or the rate at which Convertible Securities referred to in subsections 4(i)(i) or 4(i)(ii) are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock shall change at any time (including, but not limited to, changes under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. On the termination of any Option for which any adjustment was made pursuant to this subsection 4(i) or any right to convert or exchange Convertible Securities for which any adjustment was made pursuant to this subsection 4(i) (including without limitation upon the redemption or purchase for consideration of such Convertible Securities by the Company), the Conversion Price then in effect hereunder shall forthwith be changed to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at the time of such termination had such Option or Convertible Securities, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such termination, never been issued. (iv) Subject to the provisions of this Section 4(i), in case the Company shall declare a dividend or make any other distribution upon any stock of the Company (other than the Common Stock) payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then any 13 Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been issued or sold without consideration; provided, that if any adjustment is made to the Conversion Price as a result of a declaration of a dividend and such dividend is rescinded, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately readjusted to the Conversion Price in effect had such dividend not been declared. (v) In case any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the gross amount received by the Company therefor, without deduction therefrom of any expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection therewith. In case any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company shall be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board, after deduction of any expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection therewith. In case any Options shall be issued in connection with the issuance and sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integral transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, such Options shall be deemed to have been issued for such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. If Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold by the Company and, in connection therewith, other Options or Convertible Securities (the "Additional Rights") are issued, then the consideration received or deemed to be received by the Company shall be reduced by the fair market value of the Additional Rights (as determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model or another method mutually agreed to by the Company and the Holder). The Board shall respond promptly, in writing, to an inquiry by the Holder as to the fair market value of the Additional Rights. In the event that the Board and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of the Additional Rights, the Company and the Holder shall jointly select an appraiser, who is experienced in such matters. The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and the cost of such appraiser shall be borne evenly by the Company and the Holder. (vi) In case the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be. (vii) The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the disposition of any such shares (other than the cancellation or retirement thereof) shall be considered an issuance or sale of Common Stock for the purpose of this subsection (i). (viii) Notwithstanding any other provision in this subsection (i) to the contrary, if a reduction in the Conversion Price pursuant to this subsection (i) (other than as set forth in 14 this clause (viii)) would require the Company, to issue in excess of 19.9% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Closing Date that are held by non-affiliates at a conversion price less than fair market value (as defined in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350) (the "Conversion Limitation") or to otherwise obtain stockholder approval of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement to be consummated on the Closing Date pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(i) and such stockholder approval has not been obtained, (i) the Conversion Price shall be reduced to the maximum extent that would not require stockholder approval under such Rule, and (ii) the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such stockholder approval as soon as reasonably practicable, including by calling a special meeting of stockholders to vote on such Conversion Price adjustment. In no event shall the Company be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock in excess of the Conversion Limitation until stockholder approval has been obtained. Unless stockholder approval has been obtained, in the event that any Holder converts this Note or any portion thereof pursuant to this Section 4 and such conversion would result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Conversion Limitation then the Company shall redeem the portion of the Note in excess of the Conversion Limitation, together with interest thereon (the "Redeemed Portion"). The Company shall redeem the Redeemed Portion at face value together with accrued interest thereon at the interest rate then applicable to this Note in no more than four equal installments, the last one of which shall be paid no later than the Stated Maturity Date. The Redeemed Portion shall be deemed to continue to be outstanding hereunder until the Redeemed Portion is paid in full. (j) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to make any adjustment of the Conversion Price in the case of the issuance of (A) capital stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued to directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company in connection with their service as directors of the Company, their employment by the Company or their retention as consultants by the Company pursuant to an equity compensation program approved by the Board of Directors of the Company or the compensation committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, (B) shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion or exercise of Options or Convertible Securities issued prior to the date hereof, provided such securities are not amended after the date hereof to increase the number of shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder or to lower the exercise or conversion price thereof, (C) securities issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and securities issued upon the exercise or conversion of those securities, and (D) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable by reason of a dividend, stock split or other distribution on shares of Common Stock (but only to the extent that such a dividend, split or distribution results in an adjustment in the Conversion Price pursuant to the other provisions of this Note) (collectively, "Excluded Issuances"). (k) In case at any time: (i) the Company shall declare any dividend upon its Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company payable in cash or stock or make any other distribution to the holders of its Common Stock or any such other class or series of capital stock; (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; or 15 (iii) there shall be any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any acquisition or a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give, by delivery in person or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company, (a) at least 20 Business Days' prior written notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution or subscription rights or for determining rights to vote in respect of any event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 4(k) and (b) in the case of any event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 4(k), at least 20 Business Days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (a) shall also specify, in the case of any such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, the date on which the holders of Common Stock or such other class or series of capital stock shall be entitled thereto and such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (b) shall also specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock and such other series or class of capital stock shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock and other stock for securities or other property deliverable upon consummation of the applicable event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 4(k). (l) Upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, then and in each such case the Company shall give prompt written notice thereof, by delivery in person or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company, which notice shall state the Conversion Price resulting from such adjustment and setting forth in reasonable detail the method upon which such calculation is based. (m) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of this Note. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and that the Company will from time to time take all such action as may be requisite to assure that the par value per share of the Common Stock is at all times equal to or less than the Conversion Price in effect at the time. The Company shall take all such action as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirement of any national securities exchange or trading market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company shall not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Conversion Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable after such action upon conversion of this Note would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by the Company's Certificate of Incorporation. (n) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the holders thereof for any issuance tax in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other 16 than that of the Holder. When the Company is required to issue Conversion Shares hereunder, if: (1) certificates representing such Conversion Shares are not delivered to the Holder within three (3) Business Days of the Automatic Conversion Date or the Optional Conversion Date, as applicable, and (2) prior to the time such certificates are received, the Holder, or any third party on behalf of such Holder or for the Holder's account, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of such certificates (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder (for costs incurred either directly by such Holder or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for Common Stock as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage commissions, if any) exceeds the proceeds received by the Holder as a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In. (o) The Company will not at any time close its transfer books against the transfer, as applicable, of this Note or of any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of this Note in any manner which interferes with the timely conversion of this Note, except as may otherwise be required to comply with applicable securities laws. (p) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Conversion Shares that may be acquired by the Holder upon any conversion of this Note (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such conversion (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), does not exceed 9.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a transaction contemplated by Section 4(f) of this Note. This restriction may not be waived. 5. Covenants. (a) So long as any amount due under this Note is outstanding and until the earlier of (i) the indefeasible payment in full of all amounts payable by the Company hereunder and (ii) the conversion of this Note: (i) The Company shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to (A) carry on and conduct its business in substantially the same manner and in substantially the same fields of enterprise as it is presently conducting, (B) do all things necessary to remain duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing as a domestic corporation under the laws of its state of incorporation and (C) maintain all requisite authority to conduct its business in those jurisdictions in which its business is conducted. 17 (ii) The Company shall promptly notify the Holder in writing of any of the following events to the extent such events are not disclosed by the Company in its SEC Filings: (A) any change in the business or the operations the Company or any Subsidiary which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (B) any information which indicates that any financial statements which are the subject of any representation contained in the Transaction Documents, or which are furnished to the Holder pursuant to the Transaction Documents, fail, in any material respect, to present fairly, as of the date thereof and for the period covered thereby, the financial condition and results of operations purported to be presented therein, disclosing the nature thereof. (iii) The Company shall promptly notify the Holder of the occurrence of any Event of Default or any event which, with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, which notice shall include a written statement as to such occurrence, specifying the nature thereof and the action (if any) which is proposed to be taken with respect thereto. (iv) The Company shall promptly notify the Holder of any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity or by or before any governmental instrumentality or other agency against the Company or any Subsidiary or to which the Company or any Subsidiary may be subject which alleges damages in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand United States Dollars ($250,000). (v) The Company shall promptly notify the Holder of any default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (vi) The Company shall and shall cause each Subsidiary to promptly take any and all actions necessary to execute any definitive documentation (which documentation shall include customary representations, warranties, covenants, conditions and agreements, and any UCC financing statements) reasonably requested by the Holder, for obtaining the benefits of the Security Documents, subject to the terms and conditions stated therein.

The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as described herein. This Warrant is being issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 22, 2007 (the "Purchase Agreement"), among the Company and the initial holders of the Company Warrants (as defined below). Capitalized terms used herein have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein. Section 1. Registration. The Company shall maintain books for the transfer and registration of the Warrant. Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register the Warrant in the name of the Warrantholder. Section 2. Transfers. As provided herein, this Warrant may be transferred only pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or an exemption from such registration. Subject to such restrictions, the Company shall transfer this Warrant from time to time upon the books to be maintained by the Company for that purpose, upon surrender hereof for transfer, properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Company, including, if required by the Company, an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, to establish that such transfer is being made in accordance with the terms hereof, and a new Warrant shall be issued to the transferee and the surrendered Warrant shall be canceled by the Company. Section 3. Exercise of Warrant. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Warrantholder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its expiration upon surrender of the Warrant, together with delivery of a duly executed Warrant exercise form, in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (the "Exercise Agreement") and payment by cash, certified check or wire transfer of funds (or, in certain circumstances, by cashless exercise as provided below) of the aggregate Warrant Price for that number of Warrant Shares then being purchased, to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company's principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder). The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder or the Warrantholder's designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered (or the date evidence of loss, theft or destruction thereof and security or indemnity satisfactory to the Company has been provided to the Company), the Warrant Price shall have been paid and the completed Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the Warrantholder and shall be registered in the name of the Warrantholder or such other name as shall be designated by the Warrantholder, as specified in the Exercise Agreement. If the certificates so delivered: (1) are not delivered to the Warrantholder within three (3) Business Days after the warrant has been exercised and (2) prior to the time such certificates are received, the Warrantholder, or any third party on behalf of such Warrantholder or for the Warrantholder's account, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Warrantholder of such certificates (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Warrantholder (for costs incurred either directly by such Warrantholder or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for Common Stock as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage commissions, if any) exceeds the proceeds received by the Warrantholder as a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Warrantholder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Warrantholder in respect of the Buy-In. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. Each exercise hereof shall constitute the re-affirmation by the Warrantholder that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects with respect to the Warrantholder as of the time of such exercise. As used herein, "business day" means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks in New York City are open for the general transaction of business. Section 4. Compliance with the Securities Act of 1933. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Company may cause the legend set forth on the first page of this -2- Warrant to be set forth on each Warrant, and a similar legend on any security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, unless counsel for the Company is of the opinion as to any such security that such legend is unnecessary. Section 5. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Warrantholder in respect of which such shares are issued, and in such case, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for Warrant Shares or any Warrant until the person requesting the same has paid to the Company the amount of such tax or has established to the Company's reasonable satisfaction that such tax has been paid. The Warrantholder shall be responsible for income taxes due under federal, state or other law, if any such tax is due. Section 6. Mutilated or Missing Warrants. In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue in exchange and substitution of and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and for the purchase of a like number of Warrant Shares, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of the Warrant, and with respect to a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, reasonable indemnity or bond with respect thereto, if requested by the Company. Section 7. Reservation of Common Stock. The Company hereby represents and warrants that there have been reserved, and the Company shall at all applicable times keep reserved until issued (if necessary) as contemplated by this Section 7, out of the authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, sufficient shares to provide for the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by this Warrant. The Company agrees that all Warrant Shares issued upon due exercise of the Warrant shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Warrant Shares, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company. Section 8. Adjustments. Subject and pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8, the Warrant Price and number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth hereinafter. (a) If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while this Warrant is outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then (i) the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective shall be adjusted by multiplying such Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such change and the denominator of which shall be the -3- number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such change and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective by a fraction, the numerator of which is shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately after giving effect to such change, calculated in accordance with clause (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. (b) If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Warrantholder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Warrantholder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholder, at the last address of the Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Warrantholder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant.

The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as described herein. This Warrant is being issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 22, 2007 (the "Purchase Agreement"), among the Company and the initial holders of the Company Warrants (as defined below). Capitalized terms used herein have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein. Section 1. Registration. The Company shall maintain books for the transfer and registration of the Warrant. Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register the Warrant in the name of the Warrantholder. Section 2. Transfers. As provided herein, this Warrant may be transferred only pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or an exemption from such registration. Subject to such restrictions, the Company shall transfer this Warrant from time to time upon the books to be maintained by the Company for that purpose, upon surrender hereof for transfer, properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Company, including, if required by the Company, an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, to establish that such transfer is being made in accordance with the terms hereof, and a new Warrant shall be issued to the transferee and the surrendered Warrant shall be canceled by the Company. Section 3. Exercise of Warrant. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Warrantholder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its expiration upon surrender of the Warrant, together with delivery of a duly executed Warrant exercise form, in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (the "Exercise Agreement") and payment by cash, certified check or wire transfer of funds (or, in certain circumstances, by cashless exercise as provided below) of the aggregate Warrant Price for that number of Warrant Shares then being purchased, to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company's principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder). The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder or the Warrantholder's designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered (or the date evidence of loss, theft or destruction thereof and security or indemnity satisfactory to the Company has been provided to the Company), the Warrant Price shall have been paid and the completed Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the Warrantholder and shall be registered in the name of the Warrantholder or such other name as shall be designated by the Warrantholder, as specified in the Exercise Agreement. If the certificates so delivered: (1) are not delivered to the Warrantholder within three (3) Business Days after the warrant has been exercised and (2) prior to the time such certificates are received, the Warrantholder, or any third party on behalf of such Warrantholder or for the Warrantholder's account, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Warrantholder of such certificates (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Warrantholder (for costs incurred either directly by such Warrantholder or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for Common Stock as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage commissions, if any) exceeds the proceeds received by the Warrantholder as a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Warrantholder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Warrantholder in respect of the Buy-In. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. Each exercise hereof shall constitute the re-affirmation by the Warrantholder that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects with respect to the Warrantholder as of the time of such exercise. As used herein, "business day" means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks in New York City are open for the general transaction of business. -2- Section 4. Compliance with the Securities Act of 1933. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Company may cause the legend set forth on the first page of this Warrant to be set forth on each Warrant, and a similar legend on any security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, unless counsel for the Company is of the opinion as to any such security that such legend is unnecessary. Section 5. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Warrantholder in respect of which such shares are issued, and in such case, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for Warrant Shares or any Warrant until the person requesting the same has paid to the Company the amount of such tax or has established to the Company's reasonable satisfaction that such tax has been paid. The Warrantholder shall be responsible for income taxes due under federal, state or other law, if any such tax is due. Section 6. Mutilated or Missing Warrants. In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue in exchange and substitution of and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and for the purchase of a like number of Warrant Shares, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of the Warrant, and with respect to a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, reasonable indemnity or bond with respect thereto, if requested by the Company. Section 7. Reservation of Common Stock. The Company hereby represents and warrants that there have been reserved, and the Company shall at all applicable times keep reserved until issued (if necessary) as contemplated by this Section 7, out of the authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, sufficient shares to provide for the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by this Warrant. The Company agrees that all Warrant Shares issued upon due exercise of the Warrant shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Warrant Shares, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company. Section 8. Adjustments. Subject and pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8, the Warrant Price and number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth hereinafter. (a) If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while this Warrant is outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then (i) the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to -3- the date on which such change shall become effective shall be adjusted by multiplying such Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such change and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such change and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective by a fraction, the numerator of which is shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately after giving effect to such change, calculated in accordance with clause (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. (b) If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Warrantholder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Warrantholder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholder, at the last address of the Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Warrantholder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this paragraph (b) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions. (c) An adjustment to the Warrant Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment. -4- (d) In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8, the Warrantholder shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Warrant Shares contained in this Warrant. (e) To the extent permitted by applicable law and the listing requirements of any stock market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, the Company from time to time may decrease the Warrant Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least twenty (20) days, the decrease is irrevocable during the period and the Board shall have made a determination that such decrease would be in the best interests of the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. Whenever the Warrant Price is decreased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall provide written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at least five (5) days prior to the date the decreased Warrant Price takes effect, and such notice shall state the decreased Warrant Price and the period during which it will be in effect. Section 9. Fractional Interest. The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 9, be deliverable upon such exercise, the Company, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the exercising Warrantholder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of such fractional share of Common Stock on the date of exercise. Section 10. Extension of Expiration Date. If the Company fails to cause any Registration Statement covering Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) to be declared effective prior to the applicable dates set forth therein, or if any of the events specified in Section 2(c)(ii) of the Registration Rights Agreement occurs, and the Blackout Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) (whether alone, or in combination with any other Blackout Period) continues for more than 30 days, or if the company suspends the use of the Registration Statement pursuant to an Allowed Delay for more than 45 days in any 12 month period, or for more than a total of 20 consecutive days, then the Expiration Date of this Warrant shall be extended one day for each day beyond the 30-day, 45 day or 20 day limits, as the case may be, that the Blackout Period or the Allowed Delay continues.

Upon the happening of any event requiring an adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at the address appearing in the records of the Company, stating the adjusted Warrant Price and the adjusted number of Warrant Shares resulting from such event and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is -5- based. Failure to give such notice to the Warrantholder or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the subject adjustment. Section 13. Identity of Transfer Agent.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Warrantholder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Warrantholder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial -8- ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Warrantholder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Warrantholder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a transaction contemplated by Section 8 of this Warrant. By written notice to the Company, the Warrantholder may waive the provisions of this Section 20(a), but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery of such notice, nor will any such waiver effect any other Warrantholder. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Warrantholder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Warrantholder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Warrantholder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 9.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a transaction contemplated by Section 8 of this Warrant. This restriction may not be waived. Section 21. No Rights as Stockholder. Prior to the exercise of this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall not have or exercise any rights as a stockholder of the Company by virtue of its ownership of this Warrant. Section 22.

The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as described herein. This Warrant is being issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 22, 2007 (the "Purchase Agreement"), among the Company and the initial holders of the Company Warrants (as defined below). Capitalized terms used herein have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein. Section 1. Registration. The Company shall maintain books for the transfer and registration of the Warrant. Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register the Warrant in the name of the Warrantholder. Section 2. Transfers. As provided herein, this Warrant may be transferred only pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or an exemption from such registration. Subject to such restrictions, the Company shall transfer this Warrant from time to time upon the books to be maintained by the Company for that purpose, upon surrender hereof for transfer, properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Company, including, if required by the Company, an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, to establish that such transfer is being made in accordance with the terms hereof, and a new Warrant shall be issued to the transferee and the surrendered Warrant shall be canceled by the Company. Section 3. Exercise of Warrant. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Warrantholder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its expiration upon surrender of the Warrant, together with delivery of a duly executed Warrant exercise form, in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (the "Exercise Agreement") and payment by cash, certified check or wire transfer of funds (or, in certain circumstances, by cashless exercise as provided below) of the aggregate Warrant Price for that number of Warrant Shares then being purchased, to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company's principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder). The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder or the Warrantholder's designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered (or the date evidence of loss, theft or destruction thereof and security or indemnity satisfactory to the Company has been provided to the Company), the Warrant Price shall have been paid and the completed Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the Warrantholder and shall be registered in the name of the Warrantholder or such other name as shall be designated by the Warrantholder, as specified in the Exercise Agreement. If the certificates so delivered: (1) are not delivered to the Warrantholder within three (3) Business Days after the warrant has been exercised and (2) prior to the time such certificates are received, the Warrantholder, or any third party on behalf of such Warrantholder or for the Warrantholder's account, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Warrantholder of such certificates (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Warrantholder (for costs incurred either directly by such Warrantholder or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for Common Stock as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage commissions, if any) exceeds the proceeds received by the Warrantholder as a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Warrantholder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Warrantholder in respect of the Buy-In. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. Each exercise hereof shall constitute the re-affirmation by the Warrantholder that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects with respect to the Warrantholder as of the time of such exercise. As used herein, "business day" means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks in New York City are open for the general transaction of business. Section 4. Compliance with the Securities Act of 1933. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Company may cause the legend set forth on the first page of this -2- Warrant to be set forth on each Warrant, and a similar legend on any security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, unless counsel for the Company is of the opinion as to any such security that such legend is unnecessary. Section 5. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Warrantholder in respect of which such shares are issued, and in such case, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for Warrant Shares or any Warrant until the person requesting the same has paid to the Company the amount of such tax or has established to the Company's reasonable satisfaction that such tax has been paid. The Warrantholder shall be responsible for income taxes due under federal, state or other law, if any such tax is due. Section 6. Mutilated or Missing Warrants. In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue in exchange and substitution of and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and for the purchase of a like number of Warrant Shares, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of the Warrant, and with respect to a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, reasonable indemnity or bond with respect thereto, if requested by the Company. Section 7. Reservation of Common Stock. The Company hereby represents and warrants that there have been reserved, and the Company shall at all applicable times keep reserved until issued (if necessary) as contemplated by this Section 7, out of the authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, sufficient shares to provide for the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by this Warrant. The Company agrees that all Warrant Shares issued upon due exercise of the Warrant shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Warrant Shares, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company. Section 8. Adjustments. Subject and pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8, the Warrant Price and number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth hereinafter. (a) If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while this Warrant is outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then (i) the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective shall be adjusted by multiplying such Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such change and the denominator of which shall be the -3- number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such change and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective by a fraction, the numerator of which is shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately after giving effect to such change, calculated in accordance with clause (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. (b) If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Warrantholder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Warrantholder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholder, at the last address of the Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Warrantholder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this paragraph (b) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions. (c) An adjustment to the Warrant Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment. (d) In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8, the Warrantholder shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on -4- terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Warrant Shares contained in this Warrant. (e) To the extent permitted by applicable law and the listing requirements of any stock market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, the Company from time to time may decrease the Warrant Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least twenty (20) days, the decrease is irrevocable during the period and the Board shall have made a determination that such decrease would be in the best interests of the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. Whenever the Warrant Price is decreased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall provide written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at least five (5) days prior to the date the decreased Warrant Price takes effect, and such notice shall state the decreased Warrant Price and the period during which it will be in effect. Section 9. Fractional Interest. The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 9, be deliverable upon such exercise, the Company, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the exercising Warrantholder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of such fractional share of Common Stock on the date of exercise. Section 10. Extension of Expiration Date. If the Company fails to cause any Registration Statement covering Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) to be declared effective prior to the applicable dates set forth therein, or if any of the events specified in Section 2(c)(ii) of the Registration Rights Agreement occurs, and the Blackout Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) (whether alone, or in combination with any other Blackout Period) continues for more than 30 days, or if the company suspends the use of the Registration Statement pursuant to an Allowed Delay for more than 45 days in any 12 month period, or for more than a total of 20 consecutive days, then the Expiration Date of this Warrant shall be extended one day for each day beyond the 30-day, 45 day or 20 day limits, as the case may be, that the Blackout Period or the Allowed Delay continues. Section 11. Benefits. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation (other than the Company and the Warrantholder) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim, it being agreed that this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Warrantholder. Section 12. Notices to Warrantholder. Upon the happening of any event requiring an adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at the address appearing in the records of the Company, stating the adjusted Warrant Price and the adjusted number of Warrant Shares resulting from such event and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Failure to give such notice to the Warrantholder or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the subject adjustment. Section 13. Identity of Transfer Agent. The Transfer Agent for the Common Stock is US Stock Transfer. Upon the appointment of any subsequent transfer agent for the Common -5- Stock or other shares of the Company's capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrant, the Company will mail to the Warrantholder a statement setting forth the name and address of such transfer agent.

Section 16. Successors. All the covenants and provisions hereof by or for the benefit of the Warrantholder shall bind and inure to the benefit of its respective successors and assigns hereunder. Section 17. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without reference to the choice of law provisions thereof. The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Warrantholder, each irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction -6- of the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Warrant and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein to the contrary, so long as the Company is required under the Registration Rights Agreement to have effected the registration of the Warrant Shares for resale to the public pursuant to a Registration Statement (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), if the Warrant Shares may not be freely sold to the public for any reason (including, but not limited to, the failure of the Company to have effected the registration of the Warrant Shares or to have a current prospectus available for delivery or otherwise, but excluding the period of any Allowed Delay (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Warrantholder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Warrantholder of the aggregate Warrant Price in respect of the shares of Common Stock to be acquired, shares of Common Stock of equal value to the value of this Warrant, or any specified portion hereof, by the surrender of this Warrant (or such portion of this Warrant being so exercised) together with a Net Issue Election Notice, in the form annexed hereto as Appendix B, duly executed, to the Company.

Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the Warrantholder and shall be registered in the name of the Warrantholder or such other name as shall be designated by the Warrantholder, as specified in the Exercise Agreement. If the certificates so delivered: (1) are not delivered to the Warrantholder within three (3) Business Days after the warrant has been exercised and (2) prior to the time such certificates are received, the Warrantholder, or any third party on behalf of such Warrantholder or for the Warrantholder's account, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Warrantholder of such certificates (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Warrantholder (for costs incurred either directly by such Warrantholder or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for Common Stock as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage commissions, if any) exceeds the proceeds received by the Warrantholder as a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Warrantholder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Warrantholder in respect of the Buy-In. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. Each exercise hereof shall constitute the re-affirmation by the Warrantholder that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects with respect to the Warrantholder as of the time of such exercise. As used herein, "business day" means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks in New York City are open for the general transaction of business. Section 4. Compliance with the Securities Act of 1933. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Company may cause the legend set forth on the first page of this -2- Warrant to be set forth on each Warrant, and a similar legend on any security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, unless counsel for the Company is of the opinion as to any such security that such legend is unnecessary. Section 5. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Warrantholder in respect of which such shares are issued, and in such case, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for Warrant Shares or any Warrant until the person requesting the same has paid to the Company the amount of such tax or has established to the Company's reasonable satisfaction that such tax has been paid. The Warrantholder shall be responsible for income taxes due under federal, state or other law, if any such tax is due. Section 6. Mutilated or Missing Warrants. In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue in exchange and substitution of and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and for the purchase of a like number of Warrant Shares, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of the Warrant, and with respect to a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, reasonable indemnity or bond with respect thereto, if requested by the Company. Section 7. Reservation of Common Stock. The Company hereby represents and warrants that there have been reserved, and the Company shall at all applicable times keep reserved until issued (if necessary) as contemplated by this Section 7, out of the authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, sufficient shares to provide for the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by this Warrant. The Company agrees that all Warrant Shares issued upon due exercise of the Warrant shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Warrant Shares, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company. Section 8. Adjustments. Subject and pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8, the Warrant Price and number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth hereinafter. (a) If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while this Warrant is outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then (i) the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective shall be adjusted by multiplying such Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such change and the denominator of which shall be the -3- number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such change and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective by a fraction, the numerator of which is shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately after giving effect to such change, calculated in accordance with clause (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. (b) If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Warrantholder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Warrantholder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholder, at the last address of the Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Warrantholder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this paragraph (b) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions. (c) An adjustment to the Warrant Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment. (d) In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8, the Warrantholder shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on -4- terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Warrant Shares contained in this Warrant. (e) To the extent permitted by applicable law and the listing requirements of any stock market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, the Company from time to time may decrease the Warrant Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least twenty (20) days, the decrease is irrevocable during the period and the Board shall have made a determination that such decrease would be in the best interests of the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. Whenever the Warrant Price is decreased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall provide written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at least five (5) days prior to the date the decreased Warrant Price takes effect, and such notice shall state the decreased Warrant Price and the period during which it will be in effect. Section 9. Fractional Interest. The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 9, be deliverable upon such exercise, the Company, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the exercising Warrantholder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of such fractional share of Common Stock on the date of exercise. Section 10. Extension of Expiration Date. If the Company fails to cause any Registration Statement covering Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) to be declared effective prior to the applicable dates set forth therein, or if any of the events specified in Section 2(c)(ii) of the Registration Rights Agreement occurs, and the Blackout Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) (whether alone, or in combination with any other Blackout Period) continues for more than 30 days, or if the company suspends the use of the Registration Statement pursuant to an Allowed Delay for more than 45 days in any 12 month period, or for more than a total of 20 consecutive days, then the Expiration Date of this Warrant shall be extended one day for each day beyond the 30-day, 45 day or 20 day limits, as the case may be, that the Blackout Period or the Allowed Delay continues. Section 11. Benefits. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation (other than the Company and the Warrantholder) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim, it being agreed that this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Warrantholder. Section 12. Notices to Warrantholder. Upon the happening of any event requiring an adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at the address appearing in the records of the Company, stating the adjusted Warrant Price and the adjusted number of Warrant Shares resulting from such event and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Failure to give such notice to the Warrantholder or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the subject adjustment. Section 13. Identity of Transfer Agent. The Transfer Agent for the Common Stock is ___________________. Upon the appointment of any subsequent transfer agent for the -5- Common Stock or other shares of the Company's capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrant, the Company will mail to the Warrantholder a statement setting forth the name and address of such transfer agent.

Section 16. Successors. All the covenants and provisions hereof by or for the benefit of the Warrantholder shall bind and inure to the benefit of its respective successors and assigns hereunder. Section 17. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without reference to the choice of law provisions thereof. The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Warrantholder, each irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction -6- of the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Warrant and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 18. Call Provision. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Warrant to the contrary, in the event that the closing bid price per share of Common Stock as traded on the Nasdaq Global Market or the Nasdaq Capital Market (or such other exchange or stock market on which the Common Stock may then be listed or quoted) equals or exceeds $11.26 (appropriately adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or other reclassification or combination of the Common Stock occurring after the date hereof) for twenty (20) consecutive trading days commencing after the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) has been declared effective, the Company, upon ten (10) days prior written notice (the "Notice Period") given to the Warrantholder within one Business Day immediately following the end of such twenty (20) trading day period, may demand that the Warrantholder exercise its cash exercise rights hereunder, and the Warrantholder must exercise its rights hereunder prior to the end of the Notice Period; provided that (i) the Company simultaneously gives a similar notice to all holders of Company Warrants (as defined below), (ii) all of the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder either (A) are registered pursuant to an effective Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) which has not been suspended and for which no stop order is in effect, and pursuant to which the Warrantholder is able to sell such shares of Common Stock at all times during the Notice Period or (B) no longer constitute Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and (iii) this Warrant is fully exercisable for the full amount of Warrant Shares covered hereby. If such exercise is not made or if only a partial exercise is made, any and all rights to further exercise the Warrant shall cease upon the expiration of the Notice Period. Section 19. Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein to the contrary, so long as the Company is required under the Registration Rights Agreement to have effected the registration of the Warrant Shares for resale to the public pursuant to a Registration Statement (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), if the Warrant Shares may not be freely sold to the public for any reason (including, but not limited to, the failure of the Company to have effected the registration of the Warrant Shares or to have a current prospectus available for delivery or otherwise, but excluding the period of any Allowed -7- Delay (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Warrantholder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Warrantholder of the aggregate Warrant Price in respect of the shares of Common Stock to be acquired, shares of Common Stock of equal value to the value of this Warrant, or any specified portion hereof, by the surrender of this Warrant (or such portion of this Warrant being so exercised) together with a Net Issue Election Notice, in the form annexed hereto as Appendix B, duly executed, to the Company. Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Warrantholder such number of fully paid, validly issued and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is computed using the following formula: Y (A - B) X = --------- A where X = the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Warrantholder is entitled upon such cashless exercise; Y = the total number of shares of Common Stock covered by this Warrant for which the Warrantholder has surrendered purchase rights at such time for cashless exercise (including both shares to be issued to the Warrantholder and shares as to which the purchase rights are to be canceled as payment therefor); A = the closing bid price of one share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date the net issue election is made; and B = the Warrant Price in effect under this Warrant at the time the net issue election is made. Section 20. Limitations on Exercise. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Warrantholder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Warrantholder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Warrantholder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Warrantholder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a transaction contemplated by Section 8 of this Warrant. By written notice to the Company, the Warrantholder may waive the provisions of this Section 20(a), but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery of such notice, nor will any such waiver effect any other Warrantholder. -8- (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Warrantholder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Warrantholder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Warrantholder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 9.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a transaction contemplated by Section 8 of this Warrant. This restriction may not be waived. Section 21. No Rights as Stockholder. Prior to the exercise of this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall not have or exercise any rights as a stockholder of the Company by virtue of its ownership of this Warrant. Section 22. Amendment; Waiver. This Warrant is one of a series of Warrants of like tenor issued by the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and initially covering an aggregate of 1,592,040 shares of Common Stock (collectively, the "Company Warrants"). Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived (including the adjustment provisions included in Section 8 of this Warrant) upon the written consent of the Company and the holders of Company Warrants representing at least 50% of the number of shares of Common Stock then subject to all outstanding Company Warrants (the "Majority Holders"); provided, that (x) any such amendment or waiver must apply to all Company Warrants; and (y) the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant, the Warrant Price and the Expiration Date may not be amended, and the right to exercise this Warrant may not be altered or waived, without the written consent of the Warrantholder.

If (A)(x) a Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities is not declared effective by the SEC prior to the 120th day after the Closing Date and the Company has not responded to any SEC comments on the Registration Statement within ten (10) Business Days of the Company's receipt of such comments or (y) a Registration Statement covering Additional Shares is not declared effective by the SEC within ninety (90) days following the time such Registration Statement was required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii), or (B) after a Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant to such Registration Statement for any reason (including without limitation by reason of a stop order, or the Company's failure to update the Registration Statement), but excluding the inability of any Investor to sell the Registrable Securities covered thereby due to market conditions and except as excused pursuant to subparagraph (ii) below, then the Company will make pro rata payments to each Investor, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, in an amount equal to 1.0% of the aggregate amount invested by such Investor for each 30- day period or pro rata for any portion thereof following the date by which such Registration Statement should have been effective (the "Blackout Period"). Such payments shall constitute the Investors' exclusive monetary remedy for such events, but shall not affect the right of the Investors to seek injunctive relief. The amounts payable as liquidated damages pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid monthly within three (3) Business Days of the last day of each month following the commencement of the Blackout Period until the termination of the Blackout Period. Such payments shall be made to each Investor in cash. (ii) For not more than twenty (20) consecutive days or for a total of not more than forty-five (45) days in any twelve (12) month period, the Company may delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company, by suspending the use of any Prospectus included in any registration contemplated by this Section containing such information, the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company (an "Allowed Delay"); provided, that the Company shall promptly (a) notify the Investors in writing of the existence of (but in no event, without the prior written consent of an Investor, shall the Company disclose to such Investor any of the facts or circumstances regarding) material non-public information giving rise to an Allowed Delay, (b) advise the Investors in writing to cease all sales under the Registration Statement until the end of the Allowed Delay and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate an Allowed Delay as promptly as practicable. (d) Rule 415; Cutbacks. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 2, if at any time the SEC takes the position that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the 1933 Act, the Company shall (i) remove from the Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities (the "Cut Back Shares") and/or (ii) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities as the SEC may require to assure the Company's compliance with the requirements of Rule 415 (collectively, the "SEC Restrictions"). Any cut-back imposed -4- pursuant to this Section 2(d) shall be allocated among the Investors on a pro rata basis and shall be allocated first to any Warrant Shares, unless the SEC Restrictions otherwise require. No liquidated damages shall accrue on or as to any Cut Back Shares until such time as the Company is able to effect the registration of the Cut Back Shares in accordance with any SEC Restrictions (such date, the "Restriction Termination Date"). From and after the Restriction Termination Date, all of the provisions of this Section 2 (including the liquidated damages provisions) shall again be applicable to the Cut Back Shares; provided, however, that for such purposes the Closing Date shall be deemed to be the Restriction Termination Date. 3. Company Obligations. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms hereof, and pursuant thereto the Company will, as expeditiously as possible: (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and to remain continuously effective for a period that will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the date on which all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement as amended from time to time, have been sold, and (ii) the date on which all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) (the "Effectiveness Period") and advise the Investors in writing when the Effectiveness Period has expired;

(c) provide copies to and permit counsel designated by the Investors to review each Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto no fewer than seven (7) days prior to their filing with the SEC and not file any document to which such counsel reasonably objects; (d) furnish to the Investors and their legal counsel (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the SEC, or received by the Company (but not later than two (2) Business Days after the filing date, receipt date or sending date, as the case may be) one (1) copy of any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, each preliminary prospectus and Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each letter written by or on behalf of 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 (ii) such number of copies of a Prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as each Investor may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor that are covered by the related Registration Statement; -5- (e) use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness and, (ii) if such order is issued, obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment; (f) prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Investors and their counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions requested by the Investors and do any and all other commercially reasonable acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the distribution in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (i) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(f), (ii) subject itself to general taxation in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be so subject but for this Section 3(f), or (iii) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction; (g) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange, interdealer quotation system or other market on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed; (h) immediately notify the Investors, at any time prior to the end of the Effectiveness Period, upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the Prospectus includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, and promptly prepare, file with the SEC and furnish to such holder a supplement to or an amendment of such Prospectus as may be necessary so that such Prospectus shall not include 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 in light of the circumstances then existing; and (i) otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, including, without limitation, Rule 172 under the 1933 Act, file any final Prospectus, including any supplement or amendment thereof, with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 under the 1933 Act, promptly inform the Investors in writing if, at any time during the Effectiveness Period, the Company does not satisfy the conditions specified in Rule 172 and, as a result thereof, the Investors are required to deliver a Prospectus in connection with any disposition of Registrable Securities and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to facilitate the registration of the Registrable Securities hereunder; and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than the Availability Date (as defined below), an earnings statement covering a period of at least twelve (12) months, beginning after the effective date of each Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act, including Rule 158 promulgated thereunder (for the purpose of this subsection 3(i), "Availability Date" means the 45th day following the end of the fourth fiscal quarter that includes the effective date of such Registration Statement, except that, if such fourth fiscal quarter is the last quarter of the Company's fiscal year, "Availability Date" means the 90th day after the end of such fourth fiscal quarter). -6- (j) With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 (or its successor rule) and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell shares of Common Stock to the public without registration, the Company covenants and agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) six months after such date as all of the Registrable Securities may be resold pursuant to Rule 144(k) or any other rule of similar effect or (B) such date as all of the Registrable Securities shall have been resold; (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1934 Act; and (iii) furnish to each Investor upon request, as long as such Investor owns any Registrable Securities (including securities that were formerly Registrable Securities until such securities became eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144(k)), (A) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act, (B) a copy of the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail such Investor of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Registrable Securities without registration. 4. Due Diligence Review; Information. The Company shall make available, during normal business hours, for inspection and review by the Investors, advisors to and representatives of the Investors (who may or may not be affiliated with the Investors and who are reasonably acceptable to the Company), all financial and other records, all SEC Filings (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and other filings with the SEC that are filed with the SEC prior to the filing of the Registration Statement, and all other corporate documents and properties of the Company as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of such review, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees, within a reasonable time period, to supply all such information reasonably requested by the Investors or any such representative, advisor or underwriter in connection with such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, in response to all questions and other inquiries reasonably made or submitted by any of them), prior to and from time to time after the filing and effectiveness of the Registration Statement for the sole purpose of enabling the Investors and such representatives, advisors and underwriters and their respective accountants and attorneys to conduct initial and ongoing due diligence with respect to the Company and the accuracy of such Registration Statement. The Company shall not disclose material nonpublic information to the Investors, or to advisors to or representatives of the Investors, unless prior to disclosure of such information the Company identifies such information as being material nonpublic information and provides the Investors, such advisors and representatives with the opportunity to accept or refuse to accept such material nonpublic information for review and any Investor wishing to obtain such information enters into an appropriate confidentiality agreement with the Company with respect thereto. -7- 5. Obligations of the Investors. (a) Each Investor shall furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of any Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor of the information the Company requires from such Investor if such Investor elects to have any of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement. An Investor shall provide such information to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement if such Investor elects to have any of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement. (b) Each Investor, by its 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 a Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of its election to exclude all of its Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement. (c) Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of either (i) the commencement of an Allowed Delay pursuant to Section 2(c)(ii) or (ii) the happening of an event pursuant to Section 3(h) hereof, such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities, until the Investor is advised by the Company that such dispositions may again be made. 6. Indemnification. (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and its officers, directors, members, employees and agents, successors and assigns, and each other person, if any, who controls such Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any preliminary Prospectus or final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any blue sky application or other document executed by the Company specifically for that purpose or based upon written information furnished by the Company filed in any state or other jurisdiction in order to qualify any or all of the Registrable Securities under the securities laws thereof (any such application, document or information herein called a "Blue Sky Application"); (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (iv) any violation by the Company or its agents of any rule or regulation promulgated under the 1933 Act applicable to the Company or its agents and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with such registration; or (v) any failure to register or qualify the Registrable Securities included in any -8- such Registration in any state where the Company or its agents has affirmatively undertaken or agreed in writing that the Company will undertake such registration or qualification on an Investor's behalf and will reimburse such Investor, and each such officer, director or member and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by such Investor or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such Registration Statement or Prospectus. (b) Indemnification by the Investors. Each Investor agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, stockholders and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the 1933 Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expense (including reasonable attorney fees) resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission of a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Investor to the Company specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto. In no event shall the liability of an Investor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expense paid by such Investor in connection with any claim relating to this Section 6 and the amount of any damages such Investor has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission) received by such Investor upon the sale of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation. (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm -9- of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. (d) Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraphs (a) and (b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act shall be entitled to contribution from any person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the contribution obligation of a holder of Registrable Securities be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses paid by such holder in connection with any claim relating to this Section 6 and the amount of any damages such holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission) received by it upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation. 7.

These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein: - ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; - block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; - purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; - an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; - privately negotiated transactions; - short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this Prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC; - through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; - broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; and - a combination of any such methods of sale. The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as -14- selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus. In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants. The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule. The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock or interests therein may be "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus. In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with. -15- We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus. We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act. -16- EXHIBIT E INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT This INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), is made and entered into as of this 22nd date of February 2007, by and among Local.com Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Hearst Communications, Inc.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, it is hereby agreed that 3 Strategic Investor may transfer possession of items of Shared Collateral in connection with the refinancing of all or a portion of the indebtedness under the Strategic Investor Note to a replacement lender if such replacement lender has entered into an intercreditor agreement which is substantially in the form of this Agreement and which shall not materially and adversely change the rights or obligations of Financial Investor with respect to the Shared Collateral as set forth in this Agreement.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the issuance and sale of the Securities does not and will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under (i) the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, (ii) any statute, rule, regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court, domestic or foreign, known to us and having jurisdiction over the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective assets or properties, or (iii) any of the material agreements and instruments listed in the officer's certificate attached hereto. 7.
