(f) No Violation or Conflict. Assuming the representations and warranties of the Subscribers in Section 4 are true and correct, neither the issuance and sale of the Securities nor the performance of the Company's obligations under the Transaction Documents by the Company will: (i) violate, conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default (or an event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would be reasonably likely to constitute a default) under (A) the articles or certificate of incorporation, charter or bylaws of the Company, (B) to the Company's knowledge, any decree, judgment, order, law, treaty, rule, regulation or determination applicable to the Company of any court, governmental agency or body, or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries or over the properties or assets of the Company or any of its affiliates, (C) the terms of any bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of indebtedness, or any agreement, stock option or other similar plan, indenture, lease, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to which the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries is a party, by which the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries is bound, or to which any of the properties of the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries is subject, or (D) the terms of any "lock-up" or similar provision of any underwriting or similar agreement to which the Company, or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries is a party except the violation, conflict, breach, or default of which would not have a material adverse effect on the Company; or (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon the Securities or any of the assets of the Company, its subsidiaries or any of its affiliates; or (iii) result in the activation of any anti-dilution rights or a reset or repricing of any debt or security instrument of any other creditor or equity holder of the Company, nor result in the acceleration of the due date of any obligation of the Company; or 6 (iv) result in the activation of any piggy-back registration rights of any person or entity holding securities of the Company or having the right to receive securities of the Company.

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to become current in its periodic reporting obligations under the 1934 Act. Accordingly, it is anticipated that the Company's securities will be delisted from trading on the OTC.BB and will be listed on the pink sheets. Thus, the liquidity and marketability of these securities will be adversely affected. (j) No Market Manipulation. The Company has not taken, and will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to, or that might reasonably be expected to, 7 cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of the common stock of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities or affect the price at which the Securities may be issued or resold.

Covenants of the Company and Subscriber Regarding Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Subscribers, the Subscribers' officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons, and principal shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Subscriber or any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by Company or breach of any warranty by Company in any of the Transaction Documents; or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by the Company of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by the Company under any Transaction Documents other than its obligations under Section 11 of this Agreement. (b) Each Subscriber agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company and each of the Company's officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company or any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by such Subscriber in this Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or other agreement delivered pursuant hereto; or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by such Subscriber of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by such Subscriber hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and Subscribers, relating hereto. (c) In no event shall the liability of Subscriber or permitted successor hereunder or under any other agreement delivered in connection herewith be greater than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000). 10. (a) Right of First Refusal. Until the end of the Exclusion Period, the Subscribers shall be given not less than five (5) business days prior written notice of any proposed sale by the Company of its common stock or other securities or debt obligations, except in connection with (i) employee stock options or compensation plans, (ii) as full or partial consideration in connection with merger, consolidation or purchase of substantially all of the securities or assets of any corporation or other entity, or (iv) as has been described in the Reports or Other Written Information filed with the Commission or delivered to the Subscribers prior to the Closing Date (collectively the foregoing are "Excepted Issuances"). The Subscribers who exercise their rights pursuant to this Section 11 (a) shall have the right during the five (5) business days following receipt of the notice to purchase such offered common stock, debt or other 10 securities in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the notice of sale in the same proportion to each other as their purchase of Shares in the Offering. In the event such terms and conditions are modified during the notice period, the Subscribers shall be given prompt notice of such modification and shall have the right during the five (5) business days following the notice of modification, whichever is longer, to exercise such right. (b) Favored Nations Provision. Other than the Excepted Issuances, if at any time that a Subscriber is still holding the Shares or Warrant Shares, if the Company shall offer, issue or agree to issue any common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding at any time prior to the Closing Date) to any person or entity at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than the Per Share Purchase Price, without the consent of each Subscriber holding Shares, then the Company shall issue, for each such occasion, additional shares of Common Stock to each Subscriber so that the average Per Share Purchase Price of the shares of Common Stock issued to the Subscriber (of only the Common Stock or Warrant Shares still owned by the Subscriber) is equal to such other lower price per share. The delivery to the Subscriber of the additional shares of Common Stock shall be not later than the closing date of the transaction giving rise to the requirement to issue additional shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the issuance and adjustment described in this paragraph, the issuance of any security of the Company carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in the issuance of the additional shares of Common Stock upon the issuance of such convertible security, warrant, right or option. The rights of the Subscriber set forth in this Section 11 are in addition to any other rights the Subscriber has pursuant to this Agreement and any other agreement referred to or entered into in connection herewith. (c) Maximum Exercise of Rights. In the event the exercise of the rights described in Section 10(b) would result in the issuance of an amount of common stock of the Company that would exceed the maximum amount that may be issued to a Subscriber calculated in the manner described in Section 10 of the Warrant, then the issuance of such additional shares of common stock of the Company to such Subscriber will be deferred in whole or in part until such time as such Subscriber is able to beneficially own such common stock without exceeding the maximum amount set forth calculated in the manner described in Section 10 of the Warrant. The determination of when such common stock may be issued shall be made by each Subscriber as to only such Subscriber. (d) Piggyback Registration Rights. If at any time prior to the removal of restrictive legends pursuant to Rule 144(k) (i.e. two (2) years holding period), (i) the Company proposes to register shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act, other than on Forms S-8 , S-4 or any successor forms (a "Proposed Registration") and (ii) a Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the shares ("Registrable Securities") is not then effective and available for sales thereof by the Investor, the Company shall, 11 at such time, promptly give Investor written notice of such Proposed Registration. Investor shall have ten (10) Business Days from its receipt of such notice to deliver to the Company a written request specifying the amount of Registrable Securities that Investor intends to sell and Investor's intended method of distribution. Upon receipt of such request, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent necessary permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of such Investor; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any Proposed Registration without obligation to the Investor. If, in connection with any underwritten public offering for the account of the Company or for stockholders of the Company that have contractual rights to require the Company to register shares of Common Stock, the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall impose a limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock which may be included in a Proposed Registration because, in the judgment of such underwriter(s), marketing or other factors dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate such offering, then the Company shall be obligated to include in such Proposed Registration only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which each Investor has requested inclusion hereunder as such underwriter(s) shall permit. Any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rate among the Investors seeking to include Registrable Securities in a Proposed Registration, in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities sought to be included by such Investors; provided, however, that the Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities, the holders of which are not entitled to inclusion of such securities in such Proposed Registration or are not entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities; and provided, further, that, after giving effect to the immediately preceding proviso, any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata with holders of other securities having the right to include such securities in the Proposed Registration. 11.
