The Notes will be convertible under certain conditions into shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"). The Warrant issued to a Purchaser will entitle the holder thereof to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 75% of the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Note purchased by such Purchaser is convertible.

The shares of Common Stock into which the Notes are convertible are referred to herein as the "Conversion Shares" and the shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable are referred to herein as the "Warrant Shares." The Notes, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares are collectively referred to herein as the "Securities."

The Company has agreed to effect the registration of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act (as defined below) pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the "Registration Rights Agreement").

The sale of the Securities to the Purchasers will be effected in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Exchange Act (as defined below) and Rule 506 of Regulation D ("Regulation D") as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act.

The Notes will rank junior to all current indebtedness of the Company but senior to all future indebtedness of the Company.

Upon execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Purchaser will wire its purchase price to an escrow account set forth in this Agreement and it is a condition precedent to the consummation of the purchase and sale of the Notes and Warrants and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (as defined below) that, contemporaneously with the Closing (as defined below), Shelter Island and Cornell Capital shall have waived anti-dilution rights and entered into lock-up agreements all in a form satisfactory to the Lead Purchaser.

Acknowledgment Regarding Purchaser's Purchase of Securities.

The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and has not received or relied on any advice given by a Purchaser or any of its representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company further represents to each Purchaser that the Company's decision to enter into the Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Company and its representatives.

3.7

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

3.8

No Integrated Offering. None of the Company, any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require registration of any of the Securities under the Securities Act or cause the offer and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act in a manner that would make unavailable the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated. None of the Company, its Affiliates or any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps referred to in the preceding sentence that would require registration of any of the Securities under the Securities Act or cause the offering of the Securities to be so integrated with other offerings.

3.9

Dilutive Effect. The Company understands and acknowledges that the issuance of Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Notes and the issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company understands and acknowledges that its obligation to issue Conversion Shares and Warrants Shares is absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that any such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Company. The Company acknowledges and agrees that such Purchaser may enter into short sales in the Company's securities to the extent permitted by this Agreement and applicable law, and that such transactions may result in selling pressure on the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

3.10

Application of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreement. The Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under its Governing Documents or the laws of State of Florida which is or could become applicable to any Purchaser as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Company's issuance of the Securities and any Purchaser's ownership of the Securities. The Company has not adopted a shareholder rights plan or similar arrangement relating to accumulations of beneficial ownership of Common Stock or a change in control of the Company. The transactions and obligations of the Company contemplated by the Transaction Documents, including without limitation, the issuance and sale of the Securities, will not trigger any preemptive or anti-dilution rights (including without limitation pursuant to any "reset" or similar provisions) or rights of first refusal or first offer, or any other rights that would allow or permit the holders of the Company's securities or other Persons to purchase shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company.

3.11

The Company is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, as of the Closing Date, and has filed with the Commission all reports, schedules, registration statements and definitive proxy statements (if any) that the Company was required to file with the Commission (collectively, the "SEC Documents").

Each SEC Document, as of the date of the filing thereof with the Commission, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and, as of the date of such filing (or if amended or superseded by a filing prior to the date of this Agreement, then on the date of such filing), such SEC Document (including all exhibits and schedules thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein) did not contain an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances

Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.19, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument, the violation of which, or default under which, by the other party(ies) to such contract, agreement or instrument would result in a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) is in violation of any term of or in default under any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any Debt, except where such violations and defaults would not result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any Debt, the performance of which, in the judgment of the Company's officers, has or is expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

No executive officer of the Company is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company is in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

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

No event or circumstance has occurred or information exists with respect to the Company or its respective business, properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed (assuming for this purpose that the Company's reports filed under the Exchange Act are being incorporated into an effective registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act).

Pledge by Purchaser. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Securities may be pledged by a Holder in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Securities.

The Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, not to, provide any Purchaser with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and after the date of the press release and 8-K Filing without the express written consent of such Purchaser. From and after the deadlines specified above, if a Purchaser has, or believes it has, received any such material, nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, it shall provide the Company with written notice thereof. The Company shall, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice, make public disclosure of such material, nonpublic information. In the event of a breach of the foregoing covenant by the Company, and provided that the Company shall have failed (following proper written request therefor) to make an appropriate public disclosure consistent with the requirements of Regulation FD under the Exchange Act, any Subsidiary, or its each of respective officers, directors, employees and agents, in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the Transaction Documents, a Purchaser shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such material, nonpublic information without the prior approval by the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents. No Purchaser shall have any liability to the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders or agents for any such disclosure. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company, its Subsidiaries nor any Purchaser shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Purchaser, to make any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the press release and 8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith and (ii) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) each Purchaser shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release).

Until the date on which there are no Notes or Warrants outstanding, the Company shall maintain its corporate existence and shall not sell all or substantially all of the Company's assets, except in the event of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, where the surviving or successor entity in such transaction (i) assumes the Company's obligations hereunder and under the Notes, the Warrants and the other agreements and instruments entered into in connection herewith and (ii) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Global Select Market or the Nasdaq Global Market.

4.11

Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, authorize and reserve for issuance, free from any preemptive rights, a number of shares of Common Stock (the "Reserved Amount") equal to no less than one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon (i) conversion of the outstanding Notes in full at the Conversion Price then in effect and (ii) exercise of the outstanding Warrants in full at the Exercise Price then in effect, in each such case without regard to any limitation or restriction on such conversion or exercise that may be set forth in the Notes or the Warrants. In the event that, as a result of an adjustment to the Conversion Price of the Notes or the Exercise Price for the Warrants (pursuant to anti-dilution adjustments or otherwise), the Reserved Amount is less than 125% of the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion of all of the Notes and exercise of all of the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitation or restriction on such conversion or exercise that may be set forth in the Notes or the Warrants), the Company shall take action (including without limitation seeking stockholder approval for the authorization or reservation of additional shares of Common Stock) as soon as practicable (but in no event later than the tenth (10^th) business day or, in the event that stockholder approval is required, the sixtieth (60^th) day following such date) to increase the Reserved Amount to no less than 150% of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such outstanding Notes are then convertible and such outstanding Warrants are exercisable. The Company shall not reduce the number of shares reserved for issuance hereunder without obtaining the written consent of the holders of two-thirds (2/3) of the Registrable Securities. The initial Reserved Amount shall be allocated pro rata among the Purchasers based on the principal amount of the Notes issued to each Purchaser at the Closing. Each increase in the Reserved Amount shall be allocated pro rata among the Holders based on the amount of Registrable Securities into which all of the Notes and Warrants held by such Holder at the time of such increase are convertible or exercisable (without regard to any limitation on such conversion or exercise). In the event that a Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Holder's Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such transferor's Reserved Amount. Any portion of the Reserved Amount which remains allocated to any person or entity which does not hold any Notes shall be reallocated to the remaining Holders pro rata based on the amount of Registrable Securities into which all of the outstanding Notes and Warrants at the time of such increase are convertible or exercisable (without regard to any limitation on such conversion or exercise).

During the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the Termination Date, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary thereof will make any Restricted Payments, except that the Company may make regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest accrued on any Subordinated Debt if and to the extent (but only if and to the extent) permitted by the express terms of the documents governing such Debt as in effect on the date hereof; provided, however, that no Restricted Payment may be made if an Event of Default (or an event or circumstance that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default) exists at the time or would exist as a result of such Restricted Payment.

4.15

During the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the Termination Date, the Company will not, nor will it permit any Subsidiary of the Company to, sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its Property, except (i) dispositions of inventory by the Company and its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, and (ii) expenditures of money (including, without limitation, money held in deposit accounts) made in the ordinary course of business or for the purpose of making Restricted Payments expressly permitted in accordance with this Agreement.

During the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the Termination Date, the Company will not consent to or implement any termination, amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of (i) the Governing Documents of the Company or (ii) any Material Contract to which it is a party; provided, however, that any of such documents may be amended or modified if and to the extent that such change or modification is necessary in order to carry out the intent of any Transaction Document.

4.18

Right of First Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 4.18 and applicable securities laws, if at any time during the period from the Closing Date through the later of the first anniversary of the Effective Date or two years from the Closing Date, the Company proposes to offer or sell (a later of the "Subsequent Financing") Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents other than Excluded Securities (collectively, the "New Securities") for cash consideration, the Company shall first offer such New Securities to each Purchaser (or any assignee thereof). A Purchaser shall be entitled to apportion the right of first offer hereby granted to it among itself and its Affiliates in such proportions as it deems appropriate.

(a)

The Company shall give notice (the "Offer Notice") to each Purchaser, stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer such New Securities, (ii) the number of such New Securities to be offered, and (iii) the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such New Securities.

(b)

By written notification to the Company within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Offer Notice, each Purchaser may elect to purchase or otherwise acquire, at the price and on the terms specified in the Offer Notice, up to that portion of such New Securities which equals the proportion that the Common Stock issued and held, or issuable (directly or indirectly) upon conversion and/or exercise, as applicable, of the Notes and Warrants by such Purchaser bears to the total Common Stock of the Company then outstanding (assuming full conversion and/or exercise, as applicable, of all the Notes and Warrants. At the expiration of such ten (10) day period, the Company shall promptly notify in writing each Purchaser that elects to purchase or acquire all the shares available to it (each, a "Fully Exercising Purchaser") of any other Purchaser's failure to do likewise. During the ten (10) Business Day period commencing after the Company has given such written notice, each Fully Exercising Purchaser may, by giving notice to the Company, elect to purchase or acquire, in addition to the number of shares specified above, up to that portion of the New Securities for which Purchasers were entitled to subscribe but that were not subscribed for by the Purchasers which is equal to the proportion that the Common Stock issued and held, or issuable

upon conversion and/or exercise, as applicable, of the Notes and Warrants then held, by such Fully Exercising Purchaser bears to the Common Stock issued and held, or issuable (directly or indirectly) upon conversion and/or exercise, as applicable, of the Notes then held, by all Fully Exercising Purchasers who wish to purchase such unsubscribed securities. The closing of any sale pursuant to this Section 4.18(b) shall occur within the later of one hundred twenty (120) days of the date that the Offer Notice is given and the date of initial sale of New Securities pursuant to Section 4.18(c).

(c)

If all New Securities referred to in the Offer Notice are not elected to be purchased or acquired as provided in Section 4.18(b), the Company may, during the ninety (90) day period following the expiration of the periods provided in Section 4.18(b), offer and sell the remaining unsubscribed portion of such New Securities to any Person or Persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than, those specified in the Offer Notice. If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the New Securities within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within thirty (30) days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such New Securities shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Purchasers in accordance with this Section 4.18.

(d)

The right of first offer in this Section 4.18 shall not be applicable to Excluded Securities.

4.19.

Most Favored Nation Provision. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if at any time from and after the Closing Date until the third anniversary thereof, the Company proposes to offer and sell New Securities in a Subsequent Financing, each Purchaser may elect, in its sole discretion, to exchange all or a portion of such Purchaser's Notes then held by such Purchaser for securities of the same type issued in such Subsequent Financing (such exchange to be made at the same time as the closing of such Subsequent Financing), on the same terms and conditions as the Subsequent Financing, based on the Principal amount of the Note, and accrued and unpaid Interest and Late Charges on the Principal and Interest of the Note (as such terms are defined in the Note). By way of example, if the Company undertakes a Subsequent Financing of convertible debentures and warrants, each Buyer shall have the right to participate in such Subsequent Financing and use the exchange of its Notes as consideration, on a dollar for dollar basis, in lieu of cash consideration. The Company shall provide prior written notice of any such Subsequent Financing in the manner set forth in Section 4.18.

4.20.

Lock-Up Agreements. The Company shall cause each of its Company's officers and directors and certain of its shareholders identified on Schedule 4.20 (collectively, "Lock-Up Parties") to execute and deliver to the Lead Purchaser a written agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (each, a "Lock-Up Agreement"), pursuant to which such Lock-Up Party shall agree that, during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending 90 calendar days following the Effective Date, he, she or it will not sell any of his, her or its shares of Common Stock, including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock underlying Options and Convertible Securities held by him, her or it. The Company will cause the Lock-Up Agreements to be delivered to the Lead Purchaser on or prior to the Closing.

TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall execute and deliver irrevocable written instructions, substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (the "Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions") to the transfer agent for its Common Stock (the "Transfer Agent"), and provide each Purchaser with a copy thereof, directing the Transfer Agent (i) to issue certificates representing Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Notes and receipt of a valid Conversion Notice (as defined in the Notes) from a holder thereof, in the amount specified in such Conversion Notice, in the name of such holder or its nominee, (ii) to issue certificates representing Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants and receipt of a valid Exercise Notice (as defined in the Warrants) from a holder thereof, in the amount specified in such Exercise Notice, in the name of such holder or its nominee and (iii) to deliver such certificates to such holder no later than the close of business on the third (3^rd) Business Day following the related Conversion Date (as defined in the Notes) or Exercise Date (as defined in the Warrant), as the case may be. Such certificates may bear legends pursuant to applicable provisions of this Agreement or applicable law. The Company shall instruct the transfer agent that, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing shares of Common Stock to a holder or its nominee, as applicable, upon conversion of the Notes, or exercise of the Warrants, and as long as the Transfer Agent is a participant in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, and such holder or nominee, as applicable, has not informed the Company that it wishes to receive

physical certificates therefor, and no restrictive legend is required to appear on any physical certificate if issued, the transfer agent may effect delivery of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, by crediting the account of such holder or its nominee, as applicable, at DTC for the number of shares for which delivery is required hereunder within the time frame specified above for delivery of certificates. The Company represents to and agrees with each Purchaser that it will not give any instruction to the Transfer Agent that will conflict with the Irrevocable Transfer Instructions or otherwise restrict such Purchaser's right to convert the Notes or to receive Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms of the Notes or to exercise the Warrant or to receive Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants. In the event that the Company's relationship with the Transfer Agent should be terminated for any reason, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Agent to continue acting as transfer agent pursuant to the terms hereof until such time that a successor transfer agent is appointed by the Company and receives the instructions, substantially in the form of the Irrevocable Transfer Instructions.

The legend set forth in Section 2.7 shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend or any other legend to the holder of the applicable Securities upon which it is stamped, if (i) such Securities are registered for resale under the Securities Act, (ii) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer, such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of such Securities may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, or (ii) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurance that such Securities can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144. Following the Effective Date or at such earlier time as a legend is no longer required, the Company will no later than three (3) Business Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company's transfer agent of a legended certificate representing such Securities, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends. Following the Effective Date and upon the delivery to any Purchaser of any certificate representing Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends, such Purchaser agrees that any sale of such Securities shall be made pursuant to the Registration Statement and in accordance with the plan of distribution described therein or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Without the consent of a majority of the Holders or specific instruction from the SEC or other applicable regulatory body, the Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.6. The Company will not effect or publicly announce its intention to effect any exchange, recapitalization or other transaction that effectively requires or rewards physical delivery of certificates evidencing the Common Stock.

11.7

Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of the Notes or the Warrants. The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder, including by merger or consolidation, without the prior written consent of the Lead Purchaser. A Purchaser may assign some or all of its rights hereunder without the consent of the Company, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be a Purchaser hereunder in respect of such assigned rights.

11.8

Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in the immediately succeeding sentence, this Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Lead Purchaser Counsel is an express intended third party beneficiary of Sections 10 and 11 of this Agreement.

11.9

Survival. Unless this Agreement is terminated under Section 8, the representations and warranties of the Company and the Purchasers contained in Sections 2 and 3, and the agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 4, 5, 10 and 11 shall survive the Closing and the delivery and exercise of Securities, as applicable. Each Purchaser shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

11.10

Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

11.11

Indemnification. (a) In consideration of each of the Purchasers' execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, to which it is a party, and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company's other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each such Purchaser and each other holder of the Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons' agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (the "Indemnified Liabilities"), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any action instituted against an Indemnitee in any capacity, or any of them or their respective affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is to an affiliate of such Indemnitee, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is based upon a breach of such Indemnitee's representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Indemnitee may have with any such stockholders or any violation by the Indemnitee of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Indemnitee which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance), (c) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary contained in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (iii) any disclosure made by such Purchaser pursuant to Section 4, or (iv) the status of such Purchaser or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company shall not be obligated to indemnify an Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 11.11 for Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are caused by acts of willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnitee. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible

under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 11.11 shall be the same as those set forth in Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

11.12

No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

11.13

Remedies. Each Purchaser and each holder of the Securities shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Purchasers. The Company therefore agrees that the Purchasers shall be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security.

11.14

Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

11.15

Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Purchasers hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or the Purchasers enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

11.16

Independent Nature of Purchasers' Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as, and the Company acknowledges that the Purchasers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and the Company will not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and the Company acknowledges that the Purchasers are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges, and each Purchaser confirms, that it has independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
