The Company and its subsidiaries (i) are in compliance with any and all Environmental Laws (as hereinafter defined), except where failure to be so in compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) have received all permits, licenses or other approvals required of it under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct its business and (iii) is in compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval where, in each of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the failure to so comply could be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder.

2.32 No Manipulation; Disclosure of Information. The Company has not taken and will not take any action designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in an unlawful manipulation of the price of the Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities. The Company confirms that, to its knowledge, with the exception of the proposed sale of Securities as contemplated herein (as to which the Company makes not representation), neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchasers shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All disclosures provided to the Purchasers regarding the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the exhibits to this Agreement, furnished by the Company are true and correct and do 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to the Company as of each Closing Date at which such Purchaser purchases Securities, as follows:

3.1 Legal Power. The Purchaser has the requisite authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement. All action on the Purchaser’s part required for the lawful execution and delivery of this Agreement have been or will be effectively taken prior to the applicable Closing.

3.2 Due Execution. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Purchaser, and, upon due execution and delivery by the Company, this Agreement will be a valid and binding agreement of the Purchaser, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles.

3.3 Investment Representations. In connection with the sale and issuance of the Securities and Warrant Shares, the Purchaser, for itself and no other Purchaser, makes the following representations:

(a) Investment for Own Account. The Purchaser is acquiring the Securities and the Warrant Shares for its own account, not as nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution or public offering thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, the Purchaser does not agree to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the securities at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(b) Transfer Restrictions; Legends. The Purchaser understands that (i) the Securities and Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act; (ii) the Securities and Warrant Shares are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration, based in part upon the Company’s reliance upon the statements and representations made by the Purchasers in this Agreement, and that the Securities and Warrant Shares must be held by the Purchaser indefinitely, and that the Purchaser must, therefore, bear the economic risk of such investment indefinitely, unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the Securities Act or is exempt from such registration; (iii) each Certificate representing the Securities and Warrant Shares will be endorsed with a legend substantially in the following form until the earlier of (1) in the case of the Shares and Warrant Shares, such date as the Shares or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, have been registered for resale by the Purchaser or (2) the date the Shares, the Warrants or the Warrant Shares, as the case may be, are eligible for sale under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor rule (“Rule 144”):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATES. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND THE APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

(iv) the Company will instruct any transfer agent not to register the transfer of the Securities or Warrant Shares (or any portion thereof) until the applicable date set forth in clause (iii) above unless the conditions specified in the foregoing legends are satisfied or, if the opinion of counsel referred to above is to the further effect that such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act or this Agreement, or other satisfactory assurances of such nature are given to the Company.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge, and/or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement in connection with a bona fide margin account and, if required under the terms of such agreement or account, the Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer shall not be subject to approval or consent of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel to the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection with the pledge, but such legal opinion may be required in connection with a subsequent transfer following default by the Purchaser transferee of the pledge. No notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities including the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of Selling Stockholders thereunder.

Certificates evidencing the Shares and Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in this Section): (i) following a sale of such Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement (including the Registration Statement), or (ii) following a sale of such Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) while such Shares or Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of the SEC). Following such time as restrictive legends are not required to be placed on certificates representing Shares or Warrant Shares, the Company will, no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Shares or Warrant Shares containing a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Shares or Warrant Shares that is free from the restrictive legend provided for in this Section 3.3(b). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent promptly after the effective date of a registration statement covering the Shares and Warrant Shares if required by the Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section. Certificates for Shares or Warrant Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the Purchasers by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company system.

Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 3.2(b) is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom.

(c) Financial Sophistication; Due Diligence. The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. Such Purchaser has, in connection with its decision to purchase the Securities, relied only upon the representations and warranties contained herein and the information contained in the Company SEC Documents. Further, the Purchaser has had such opportunity to obtain additional information and to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Company, concerning the terms and conditions of the investment and the business and affairs of the Company, as the Purchaser considers necessary in order to form an investment decision.

(d) Accredited Investor Status. The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act. The Purchaser represents and warrants that it meets such status due to satisfying the criteria set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto.

(e) Residency. The Purchaser is organized under the laws of the state set forth beneath such Purchaser’s name on the signature page attached hereto, and its principal place of operations is in the state set forth beneath such Purchaser’s name on the signature page attached hereto.

(f) General Solicitation. The Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over the television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement. Prior to the time that the Purchaser was first contacted by the Company or the Placement Agent, which was prior to the Initial Closing, such Purchaser had a pre-existing and substantial relationship with the Company or the Placement Agent.

3.4 No Investment, Tax or Legal Advice. Each Purchaser understands that nothing in the Company SEC Documents, this Agreement, or any other materials presented to the Purchaser in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Each Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of Securities.

3.5 Additional Acknowledgement. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has independently evaluated the merits of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, that it has independently determined to enter into the transactions contemplated hereby, and that it is not relying on any advice from or evaluation by any other person. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Placement Agent has acted solely as placement agent for the Company in connection with the Offering of the Securities by the Company, that the information and data provided to the Purchaser in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby has not been subjected to independent verification by the Placement Agent, and that the Placement Agent has made no representation or warrant whatsoever with respect to the accuracy or completeness of such information, data or other related disclosure material. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has not taken any actions that would deem the Purchasers to be members of a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

3.6 No Short Position. As of the date hereof, and from the date hereof through date of the Initial Closing 8-K (as defined below), each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it does not and will not engage in any short sale of the Company’s voting stock or any other type of hedging transaction involving the Company’s securities (including, without limitation, depositing shares of the Company’s securities with a brokerage firm where such securities are made available by the broker to other customers of the firm for purposes of hedging or short selling the Company’s securities).

3.7 Limited Ownership. The purchase of the Securities issuable to each Purchaser at the final Closing will not result in such Purchaser (individually or together with any other person or entity with whom such Purchaser has identified, or will have identified, itself as part of a “group” in a public filing made with the SEC involving the Company’s securities) acquiring, or obtaining the right to acquire, in excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis that assumes that the Closing shall have occurred. Such Purchaser does not presently intend to, along or together with others, make a public filing with the SEC to disclose that it has (or that it together with such other persons or entities have) acquired, or obtained the right to acquire, as a result of the Closing (when added to any other securities of the Company that it or they then own or have the right to acquire), in excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or the voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis that assumes that the Closing shall have occurred.

3.8 High Degree of Risk. Each Purchaser acknowledges that an investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk, including the risks of receiving no return on the investment and of losing its entire investment in the Company. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has reviewed the Company SEC Documents, including the “Risk Factors” section in the Company’s most recent annual report on a Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Each Purchaser further acknowledges that it is able to bear the economic risk of investment in the Securities, including the total loss of such investment. The Company can make no assurance regarding its future financial performance or as to the future profitability of the Company. The Company makes no assurance whatsoever concerning the present and prospective value of the Securities to be acquired.

4. Conditions to Closing.

4.1 Conditions to Obligations of Purchasers at Closing. Each Purchaser’s obligation to purchase the Securities at each Closing is subject to the fulfillment to that Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction, on or prior to such Closing, of all of the following conditions, any of which may be waived by the Purchaser:

No litigation, statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, ruling or injunction will have been enacted, entered, promulgated or endorsed by or in any court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction or any self-regulatory organization having authority over the matters contemplated hereby which prohibits the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d) Execution of Agreements. The Purchasers shall have executed this Agreement and delivered this Agreement to the Company.

5. Additional Covenants.

5.1 Reporting Status. With a view to making available to the Purchasers the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Shares and Warrant Shares to the public without registration (including Rule 144), the Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act. The Company will otherwise take such further action as a Purchaser may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Purchaser to sell the Shares and Warrant Shares without registration under the Securities Act or any successor rule or regulation adopted by the SEC.

5.2 Listing. So long as a Purchaser owns any of the Securities or Warrant Shares, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to maintain the automated quotation of its Common Stock, including the Shares and Warrant Shares, on the Principal Market or will list the Common Stock, including the Shares and Warrant Shares, on the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Global Market, the NASDAQ Capital Market or NYSE Amex, and will comply in all material respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under such securities market or exchange, as required by the bylaws or rules of FINRA and such exchanges, if applicable.

5.3 Adjustments in Share Numbers and Prices.

(a) In the event of any stock split, subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in shares of Common Stock (or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly shares of Common Stock), combination or other similar recapitalization or event occurring after the date hereof, each reference in this Agreement or the Warrants to a number of shares or price per share shall be amended appropriately to account for such event.

(b) As to each Purchaser, from the Initial Closing Date to the time the Company or any subsidiary first closes on a public offering of its Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents registered pursuant to the Securities Act (a “Qualified Financing”), provided such Qualified Financing occurs prior to the one year anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, if the Company or any subsidiary thereof shall issue or agree to issue any (i) Common Stock or (ii) any securities of the Company or the subsidiary that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock (“Common Stock Equivalents” and collectively “Additional Shares”), entitling any person or entity to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share to the public (the “Qualified Financing Purchase Price”) less than $0.20, within three Trading Days of the date thereof the Company shall issue to such Purchaser that number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Anti-Dilution Shares”) equal to (a) the aggregate Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser at the Closing divided by the Qualified Financing Purchase Price, less (b) the Shares previously issued to such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Qualified Financing consists of the sale of Common Stock together with warrants to purchase capital stock of the Company and the exercise price of the warrants equals or exceeds the aggregate purchase price for the shares of Common Stock and warrants sold in that offering, the Qualified Financing Purchase Price shall equal the aggregate purchase price for the one share of Common Stock together with any warrants sold with that share of Common Stock.

The sale of Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have occurred at the time of the issuance of the Common Stock Equivalents and the purchase price covered thereby shall also include the actual exercise or conversion price thereof at the time of the issuance, with further adjustments for changes at conversion or exercise (in addition to the consideration per share of Common Stock underlying the Common Stock Equivalents received by the Company upon such sale or issuance of the Common Stock Equivalents). If shares are issued for a consideration other than cash, the per share selling price shall be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company. The Company may not refuse to issue a Purchaser additional shares of Common Stock hereunder based on any claim that such Purchaser or anyone associated or affiliated with such Purchaser has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless, an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining an issuance hereunder shall have been sought and obtained and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Purchaser in the amount of 150% of the market value of such shares (based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed or traded on the date of the event giving rise to the Company’s obligation hereunder), which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to the Purchaser to the extent it obtains judgment. Nothing herein shall limit a Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to deliver shares hereunder and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. On the date of closing of a transaction pursuant to which securities are issued for a purchase price less than $0.20, the Company shall give the Purchasers written notice thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this section shall not apply to an Exempt Issuance. “Exempt Issuance” means the issuance of (a) shares of Common Stock or options to employees, officers or directors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted by a majority of the board of directors of the Company (including any options granted pursuant to the employment agreement between the Company and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx) or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (b) securities upon the exercise of or conversion of any convertible securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the date of this Agreement, provided that such securities have not been amended since the date of this Agreement to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise or conversion price of any such securities, (c) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions, provided any such issuance shall only be to a person which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in which the Company receives benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities, and (d) securities upon the exercise or conversion of convertible securities, options or warrants issued to a licensed institution or bank lender in connection with debt financing. “Trading Day” means a day on which the Common Stock is traded on a securities market, automated quotation system or stock exchange (including the over-the-counter bulletin board market).

In the event of any adjustment under this Section 5.3, the Company shall promptly amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 to register the Anti-Dilution Shares. In no event shall the Company issue Anti-Dilution Shares to a Purchaser under Section 5.3 if such issuance shall result in the Purchasers acquiring, or obtaining the right to acquire, in excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis that assumes that the closing of the Additional Shares shall have occurred.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of additional shares of Common Stock that may be issued to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall not at any one time exceed a number that, when added to the total number of shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned by the Purchaser (other than by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities (including the Warrants) that have limitations on such Purchaser’s right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein (the “Excluded Shares”)), together with all shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned at such time (other than by virtue of ownership of Excluded Shares) by persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the beneficial ownership of the Purchaser for purposes of determining whether a group exists or for purposes of determining the Purchaser’s beneficial ownership, in either such case for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13D-G thereunder, would result in beneficial ownership by such Purchaser or such group of more than 9.9% of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Restricted Ownership Percentage”), computed in accordance with Regulation 13D-G. The Purchaser shall have the right at any time and from time to time to reduce its Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately upon notice to the Company in the event and only to the extent that Section 16 of the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder (or any successor statute or rules) is changed to reduce the beneficial ownership percentage threshold thereunder from 10%. If the Purchaser would otherwise be unable by reason of the Restricted Ownership Percentage to acquire the full amount of securities which the Purchaser would otherwise be entitled to acquire in a particular transaction pursuant to this Section 5.3 then the Purchaser’s right to acquire such securities shall be deferred and if thereafter, at any time or from time to time the Purchaser could acquire all or any part of such securities without exceeding its Restricted Ownership Percentage, then the Purchaser shall be entitled to acquire such securities at such time or from time to time. The Purchaser will provide notice to the Company when it becomes able to acquire all or any part of such securities and the Company shall issue the Purchaser such securities on the date that is three business days after the Purchaser gives such notice.

5.4 Confidential Information. Each Purchaser covenants that it will maintain in confidence the receipt and content of any Suspension Notice (as defined herein) under Section 6.2 until such information (a) becomes generally publicly available other than through a violation of this provision by the Purchaser or its agents or (b) is required to be disclosed in legal proceedings (such as by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigation demand, filing with any governmental authority or similar process); provided, however, that before making any disclosure in reliance on this Section 5.4(b), the Purchaser will give the Company at least 15 days prior written notice (or such shorter period as required by law) specifying the circumstances giving rise thereto and the Purchaser will furnish only that portion of the non-public information which is legally required and will exercise its best efforts to ensure that confidential treatment will be accorded any non-public information so furnished; provided, further, that notwithstanding each Purchaser’s agreement to keep such information confidential, each Purchaser makes no such acknowledgement that any such information is material, non-public information.

5.5 Non-Public Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

6. Registration Rights.

6.1 Registration Procedures and Expenses.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following final Closing, but in no event later than 45 days following the Initial Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and file (i) with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any successor to Form S-1), covering the resale of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) (such registration statement, together with any registration statement for any Cut Back Shares (as defined below), the “Registration Statement”); and (ii) to the extent required for resale of the Registrable Securities in any state of the United States of America by a Purchaser at the time of or after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, a registration statement or other applicable document (each a “Blue Sky Registration”) allowing the Purchaser to resell the Registrable Securities in such state in accordance with the blue sky laws of such state. Subject to Section 6.1(b), as soon as reasonably practicable after the Initial Closing Date, but in no event later than 90 days following the Initial Closing Date (120 days in the event of a full review of the Registration Statement by the SEC), the Company shall cause the Registration Statement and each Blue Sky Registration to become effective and effect any related qualification or compliance with respect to all Registrable Securities held by the Purchasers. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Registrable Securities” shall mean the Warrants, the Shares, the Warrant Shares, and any Common Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, any Shares or Warrant Shares. Subject to Section 6.1(b), if the Registration Statement or any Blue Sky Registration has not been declared effective by the applicable governmental authority on or before the date that is 90 days after the Initial Closing Date, or 120 days after the Initial Closing Date in the event of a full review of the Registration Statement by the SEC (the “Required Effective Date”), the Company shall, on the business day immediately following the Required Effective Date and each 30th day thereafter, make a payment to the Purchasers as partial liquidated damages for such delay (together, the “Late Registration Payments”) equal to 1% (capped at 6%) of the Purchase Price paid for the Shares and Warrants then owned by the Purchasers that have not been so registered until the Registration Statement and each Blue Sky Registration is declared effective by the applicable governmental authority. Late Registration Payments will be prorated on a daily basis during each 30 day period and will be paid to the Purchasers by wire transfer or check within five business days after the earlier of (i) the end of each 30 day period following the Required Effective Date or (ii) the effective date of the Registration Statement and each Blue Sky Registration. The Company and the Purchaser each acknowledge that the Late Registration Payments provided for in this Section 6.1(a) bear a reasonable relationship to the anticipated loss that would be suffered by the Purchaser for the Company’s failure to comply with the terms of this Section 6.1(a) and the actual loss the Purchaser would suffer for the Company’s failure to comply with the terms of this Section 6.1(a) is difficult to ascertain or incapable of estimation. If the Company fails to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to this section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 10% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Purchasers, accruing daily from the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. “Business day” means any day except Saturday, Sunday and any day that is a federal legal holiday in the United States.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, if the Company is required by the SEC to cutback the number of securities being registered in the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, then the Company shall reduce the Registrable Securities pro rata, and unless otherwise directed in writing by a Purchaser as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities and other securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will first be reduced by securities (if any) included in such Registration Statement that are not Registrable Securities, second by the Registrable Securities represented by the Warrants, third by the Registrable Securities represented by the Warrant Shares, and fourth by the Registrable Securities represented by the Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6, if the Company receives comments from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement, and following discussions with and

responses to the SEC in which the Company uses its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause as many Registrable Securities for as many Purchasers as possible to be included in the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 6 without characterizing any Purchaser as an underwriter, the Company is unable to cause the inclusion of all Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement, then the Company may, following not less than one Business day prior written notice to the Purchasers, (i) remove from the Registration Statement Registrable Securities (the “Cut Back Shares”) in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.1(b) and/or (ii) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities, in each case as the SEC may require in order for the SEC to allow such Registration Statement to become effective (collectively, the “SEC Restrictions”). Unless the SEC Restrictions otherwise require, any cutback imposed pursuant to this Section 6.1(b) shall be allocated among the Registrable Securities of the Purchasers on a pro rata basis. No liquidated damages under this Section 6 shall accrue on or as to any Cut Back Shares, and the Required Effective Date with respect to such additional Registration Statement including the Cutback Shares will be tolled, 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 provisions of this Section 6 (including, without limitation, the liquidated damages provisions, subject to tolling as provided above) shall again be applicable to the Cut Back Shares (which, for avoidance of doubt, retain their character as Registrable Securities) so that the Company will be required to file with and cause to be declared effective by the SEC such additional Registration Statements in the time frames set forth herein as necessary to ultimately cause to be covered by effective Registration Statements all Registrable Securities (if such Registrable Securities cannot at such time be resold by the Purchaser thereof pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act). For purposes of this Section 6.1(b), the Warrants and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants to be issued to the Placement Agent in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be considered “Registrable Securities” and the Placement Agent shall be treated as a “Purchaser.”

(i) prepare and file with the applicable governmental authority such amendments and supplements to each Blue Sky Registration, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary or advisable to keep the Blue Sky Registration and the Registration Statement current and effective for the resale of the Securities held by a Purchaser in the manner contemplated by such Purchaser for a period ending on the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the final Closing Date, (ii) the date on which all Securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor rule (“Rule 144”) and the blue sky laws of any state or (iii) such time as all Securities have been sold pursuant to a registration statement or Rule 144 and any applicable blue sky exemption for resale. At such time the Company is no longer required to keep the Blue Sky Registrations and the Registration Statement current and effective for the Securities held by a Purchaser (the “Registration Statement Termination Date”), that Purchaser will no longer accrue any additional liquidated damages payments pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) or 6.2(c); however, the Company shall still be obligated to make all payments under Sections 6.1(a) or 6.2(c) that were not made prior to the Registration Statement Termination Date for that Purchaser. The Company shall notify each Purchaser promptly upon each Blue Sky Registration, the Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment to any of the foregoing, being declared effective by the applicable governmental authority and advise each Purchaser that the form of Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement or post-effective amendment thereto, as the case may be, at the time of effectiveness meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act or that it intends to file a Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act;

(ii) furnish to the Purchaser with respect to the Securities registered under the Registration Statement such number of copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (including supplemental prospectuses) filed with the SEC in conformance with the requirements of the Securities Act and other such documents (including any Blue Sky Registration) as the Purchaser may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of all or any of the Securities by the Purchaser;

(iii) make any necessary blue sky filings in addition the Blue Sky Registrations;

(iv) pay the expenses incurred by the Company and the Purchasers in complying with Section 6, including, all registration and filing fees, FINRA fees, exchange listing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding attorneys’ fees of any Purchaser and any and all underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities by the Purchasers);

(v) advise the Purchasers, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC or any state securities regulator delaying or suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any Blue Sky Registration or of the initiation of any proceeding for that purpose; and it will promptly use its commercially reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal at the earliest possible moment if such stop order should be issued; and

(vi) with a view to making available to the Purchaser the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Purchaser to sell Securities to the public without registration, the Company covenants and agrees to use reasonable efforts to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) such date as all of the Securities qualify to be resold immediately pursuant to Rule 144 or any other rule of similar effect and all blue sky laws or (B) such date as all of the Securities shall have been resold pursuant to Rule 144 and applicable blue sky laws (and may be further resold without restriction); (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and under the Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to the Purchaser upon request, as long as the Purchaser owns any Securities, (A) a written statement by the Company as to whether it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange 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 the Purchaser of any rule or regulation of the SEC and any state that permits the selling of any such Securities without registration.

The Company understands that the Purchasers disclaim being an underwriter, but acknowledges that a determination by the SEC that a Purchaser is deemed an underwriter shall not relieve the Company of any obligations it has hereunder.

6.2 Transfer of Shares After Registration; Suspension.

(a) Except in the event that Section 6.2(b) applies, the Company shall: (i) if deemed necessary or advisable by the Company, prepare and file from time to time with the applicable governmental authority a post-effective amendment to any Blue Sky Registration, the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that such Blue Sky Registration or such Registration Statement will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the securities being sold thereunder, such Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) provide the Purchasers copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(i); and (iii) upon request, inform each Purchaser who so requests that the Company has complied with its obligations in Section 6.2(b)(i) (or that, if the Company has filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or any Blue Sky Registration which has not yet been declared effective, the Company will notify the Purchaser to that effect, will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to secure the effectiveness of such post-effective amendment as promptly as possible and will promptly notify the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.2(b)(i) when the amendment has become effective).

(b) Subject to Section 6.2(c), in the event: (i) of any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of any Blue Sky Registration or the Registration Statement or for amendments or supplements to such Blue Sky Registration, the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Blue Sky Registration or of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; or (iv) of any event or circumstance which necessitates the making of any changes in any Blue Sky Registration, the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of any Blue Sky Registration or the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; then the Company shall promptly deliver a certificate in writing to the Purchasers (the “Suspension Notice”) to the effect of the foregoing and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice, the Purchasers will refrain from selling any Securities pursuant to such Blue Sky Registration or the Registration Statement (a “Suspension”) until the Purchasers are advised in writing by the Company that the current Blue Sky Registration or the Prospectus may be used, and have received copies from the Company of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such Blue Sky Registration or Prospectus. In the event of any Suspension, the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the use of the Blue Sky Registration or Prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as reasonably practicable after delivery of a Suspension Notice to the Purchasers. In addition to and without limiting any other remedies (including, without limitation, at law or at equity) available to the Company and the Purchaser, the Company and the Purchasers shall be entitled to specific performance in the event that the other party fails to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.2(b).

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 6.2, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that (i) a Suspension shall not exceed 30 days individually, (ii) Suspensions covering no more than 45 days, in the aggregate, shall occur during any twelve month period and (iii) each Suspension shall be separated by a period of at least 30 days from a prior Suspension (each Suspension that satisfies the foregoing criteria being referred to herein as a “Qualifying Suspension”). In the event that there occurs a Suspension (or part thereof) that does not constitute a Qualifying Suspension, the Company shall pay to the Purchaser, on the 30th day following the first day of such Suspension (or the first day of such part), and on each 30th day thereafter, an amount equal to 1% of the Purchase Price paid for the Securities purchased by the Purchaser and not previously sold by the Purchaser with such payments to be prorated on a daily basis during each 30 day period and will be paid to the Purchaser by wire transfer or check within five business days after the end of each 30 day period following. The Company and the Purchaser each acknowledge that the payments provided for in this Section 6.2(c) bear a reasonable relationship to the anticipated loss that would be suffered by the Purchaser as a result of a Suspension and the actual loss the Purchaser would suffer as a result of a Suspension is difficult to ascertain or incapable of estimation.

(d) If a Suspension is not then in effect, the Purchasers may sell Securities under the Registration Statement and each Blue Sky Registration, provided that they comply with any applicable prospectus delivery requirements. Upon receipt of a request therefor, the Company will provide an adequate number of current Prospectuses or Blue Sky Registrations to a Purchaser and to any other parties reasonably requiring such documents.

(e) The Company agrees that it shall, immediately prior to the Registration Statement and all Blue Sky Registrations being declared effective, deliver to its transfer agent an opinion letter of counsel, opining that at any time the Registration Statement and the Blue Sky Registrations are effective, the transfer agent may issue, in connection with the sale of the Securities, certificates representing such Securities without restrictive legend, provided the Securities are to be sold pursuant to the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement and any applicable Blue Sky Registration. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company shall cause the transfer agent to confirm promptly, for the benefit of the Purchasers, that no further opinion of counsel is required at the time of transfer in order to issue such Securities without restrictive legend.

The Company shall cause its transfer agent to issue promptly a certificate without any restrictive legend to a purchaser of any Securities from the Purchasers, if no Suspension is in effect at the time of sale, and (a) the sale of such Securities is registered under the Registration Statement (including registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act) and all applicable blue sky laws; (b) the holder has provided the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Securities may be made without registration under the Securities Act or any blue sky law; or (c) such Securities are sold in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act and all applicable blue sky laws. In addition, the Company shall remove the restrictive legend from any Securities held by the Purchasers following the expiration of the holding period required by Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule) and all blue sky laws.

6.3 Indemnification. For the purpose of this Section 6.3:

(a) the term “Selling Stockholder” shall mean a Purchaser, its executive officers and directors and each person, if any, who controls that Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act;

(b) the term “Registration Statement” shall include any final Prospectus, exhibit, supplement or amendment included in or relating to, and any document incorporated by reference in, the Registration Statement (or deemed to be a part thereof) referred to in Section 6.1; and

(c) the term “untrue statement” shall mean any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or any omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement or a Blue Sky Registration a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(d) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Stockholder from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Selling Stockholder may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon (i) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or a Blue Sky Registration, (ii) any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement or the failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder or (iii) any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement or a Blue Sky Registration, and the Company will reimburse such Selling Stockholder for any reasonable legal expense or other actual accountable out of pocket expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement or a Blue Sky Registration in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Selling Stockholder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or a Blue Sky Registration or the failure of such Selling Stockholder to comply with its covenants and agreements contained herein or any statement or omission in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to the Selling Stockholder prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Selling Stockholder.

(e) Each Purchaser severally (as to itself), and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company (and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement and each director of the Company) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company (or any such officer, director or controlling person) may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any failure by that Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements contained herein or (ii) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or a Blue Sky Registration if, and only if, such untrue statement was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of that Purchaser specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or a Blue Sky Registration, and that Purchaser will reimburse the Company (or such officer, director or controlling person, as the case may be), for any reasonable legal expense or other reasonable actual accountable out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim. The obligation to indemnify shall be limited to the net amount of the proceeds received by the Purchaser from the sale of the Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or a Blue Sky Registration.

(f) Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 6.3, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section 6.3 (except to the extent that such omission materially and adversely affects the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such action) or from any liability otherwise than under this Section 6.3. Subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of its election to assume the defense thereof (unless it has failed to assume the defense thereof and appoint counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party), such indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the indemnified person, for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel (who shall not be the same as the opining counsel) at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, however, that no indemnifying person shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with appropriate local counsel) for all indemnified parties. In no event shall any indemnifying person be liable in respect of any amounts paid in settlement of any action unless the indemnifying person shall have approved the terms of such settlement; provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No indemnifying person shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified person is or could reasonably have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(g) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.3 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (d) or (e) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the liable Purchaser on the other in connection with the statements or omissions or other matters which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, in the case of an untrue statement, whether the untrue statement relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the liable Purchaser on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement. The Company and the Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (g) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (g). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (g) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (g), no Purchasers shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net amount received by that Purchaser from the sale of the Securities to which such loss relates exceeds the amount of any damages which that Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay to the Company by reason of such untrue statement. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Purchasers’ obligations in this subsection to contribute are several in proportion to their sales of Securities to which such loss relates and not joint.

(h) The parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge that they are sophisticated business persons who were represented by counsel during the negotiations regarding the provisions hereof including, without limitation, the provisions of this Section 6.3, and are fully informed regarding said provisions. They further acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 6.3 fairly allocate the risks in light of the ability of the parties to investigate the Company and its business in order to assure that adequate disclosure is made in the Registration Statement and Blue Sky Registration as required by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and applicable blue sky laws.

(i) The obligations of the Company and of the Purchasers under this Section 6.3 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement and Blue Sky Registration for a period of two years from the effective date of the Registration Statement and Blue Sky Registration. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which 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 to such claim or litigation.

6.4 Termination of Conditions and Obligations. The conditions precedent imposed by Section 3 or this Section 6 upon the transferability of the Securities shall cease and terminate as to any particular number of the Securities when such Securities shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and any applicable blue sky laws and sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in the Registration Statement and Blue Sky Registration covering such Securities or at such time as an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company shall have been rendered to the effect that such conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act and any applicable blue sky laws. The Company shall request an opinion of counsel promptly upon receipt of a request therefor from Purchaser.

6.5 Information Available. So long as the Registration Statement is effective covering the resale of Securities owned by a Purchaser, the Company will furnish (or, to the extent such information is available electronically through the Company’s filings with the SEC, the Company will make available via the SEC’s XXXXX system or any successor thereto) to each Purchaser:

(a) as soon as practicable after it is available, one copy of (i) its Annual Report to Stockholders (which Annual Report shall contain financial statements audited in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by a national firm of certified public accountants) and (ii) if not included in substance in the Annual Report to Stockholders, its Annual Report on Form 10-K (the foregoing, in each case, excluding exhibits);

(b) upon the request of the Purchaser, all exhibits excluded by the parenthetical to subparagraph (a)(ii) of this Section 6.5 as filed with the SEC and all other information that is made available to stockholders; and

(c) upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, an adequate number of copies of the Prospectuses to supply to any other party requiring such Prospectuses; and the Company, upon the reasonable request of a Purchaser, will meet with each Purchaser or a representative thereof at the Company’s headquarters during the Company’s normal business hours to discuss all information relevant for disclosure in the Registration Statement covering the Securities and will otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Purchasers conducting an investigation for the purpose of reducing or eliminating the Purchasers’ exposure to liability under the Securities Act, including the reasonable production of information at the Company’s headquarters; provided, that the Company shall not be required to disclose any confidential information to or meet at its headquarters with a Purchaser until and unless that Purchaser shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company with the Company with respect thereto.

6.6 Public Statements; Limitation on Information. The Company agrees to disclose on a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Initial Closing 8-K”) the existence of the Offering and the material terms, thereof, including pricing, within four business days after it specifies the Initial Closing Date in accordance with Section 1.3. Such Current Report on Form 8-K shall include a form of this Agreement (and all exhibits and schedules thereto) as an exhibit thereto. If not disclosed in the Initial Closing 8-K, the Company will disclose on a Current Report on Form 8-K the occurrence and material terms of any Closing subsequent to the Initial Closing, including the number of Securities sold and the Purchase Price therefor, within four business days after the applicable Closing Date. The Company will not issue any public statement, press release or any other public disclosure listing a Purchaser as one of the purchasers of the Securities without that Purchaser’s prior written consent, except as may be required by applicable law or rules of any exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed. The Company shall not provide, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries and the respective officers, directors, employees and agents of the Company and each of its subsidiaries not to provide, the Purchasers with any material nonpublic information regarding the Company or any subsidiary from and after the date the Company files, or is required by this Section to file, the Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC without the prior express written consent of the Purchaser. The Purchasers acknowledge that certain insiders of the Company intend to sell shares of Company common stock after Closing, and in the event that such sales occur, the Company will file with the SEC, a Form 4 reporting each sale of Company common stock as required by state and federal securities laws (the “Form 4 Filings”).

6.7 Limits on Additional Issuances. The Company will not, for a period of six months following the Closing Date offer for sale or sell any securities unless, in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, such offer or sale does not jeopardize the availability of exemptions from the registration and qualification requirements under applicable securities laws with respect to the Offering. Except for the issuance of stock options under the Company’s stock option plans, the issuance of common stock upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants, the issuance of common stock purchase warrants, and the offering contemplated hereby, the Company has not engaged in any offering of equity securities during the six months prior to the date of this Agreement. The foregoing provisions shall not prevent the Company from filing a “shelf” registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, but the foregoing provisions shall apply to any sale of securities thereunder.

6.8 Form D and State Securities Filings. The Company will file with the SEC a Notice of Sale of Securities on Form D with respect to the Securities, as required under Regulation D under the Securities Act, no later than 15 days after the Initial Closing Date. The Company will promptly and timely file all documents and pay all filing fees required by any states’ securities laws in connection with the sale of Securities.

6.9 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 6 may be assigned by a Purchaser to a party that acquires, other than pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144, any of the Shares and Warrant Shares originally issued or issuable to such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and the Warrants (or any Common Stock issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, any such Shares or Warrant Shares), or to any affiliate of a Purchaser that acquires any Registrable Securities. Any such permitted assignee shall have all the rights of such Purchaser under this Section 6 with respect to the Registrable Securities transferred.

6.10 Selling Stockholder Questionnaire. Each Purchaser agrees to furnish to the Company a completed questionnaire in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit D (a “Selling Holder Questionnaire”). The Company shall not be required to include the Registrable Securities of a Purchaser in a Registration Statement and shall not be required to pay any liquidated or other damages hereunder to any such Purchaser who fails to furnish to the Company a fully completed Selling Holder Questionnaire at least three business days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement.

Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 7.5 shall be binding upon any holder of any Securities purchased under this Agreement (including securities into which such Securities have been converted), each future holder of all such securities, and the Company.

B-2

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Holder 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 Holder and its affiliates (as defined under Rule 144, “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 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 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 Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 9 of this Warrant. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may waive the provisions of this Section 4(b) 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 Holder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Holder 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 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 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 Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 9 of this Warrant. This restriction may not be waived.

5. Delivery of Warrant Shares.

(a) To effect exercises hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant unless the aggregate Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant are being exercised. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice (in the form attached hereto) to the Company (with the attached Warrant Shares Exercise Log) at its address for notice set forth herein and upon payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder and the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than three Trading Days after the Date of Exercise (as defined herein)) issue and deliver to the Holder, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, which, unless otherwise required by the Purchase Agreement, shall be free of restrictive legends. The Company shall, upon request of the Holder and subsequent to the date on which a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, use its reasonable best efforts to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions, if available, provided, that, the Company may, but will not be required to change its transfer agent if its current transfer agent cannot deliver Warrant Shares electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation. A “Date of Exercise” means the date on which the Holder shall have delivered to the Company: (i) the Exercise Notice (with the Warrant Exercise Log attached to it), appropriately completed and duly signed and (ii) if such Holder is not utilizing the cashless exercise provisions set forth in this Warrant, payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the Holder to be purchased.

(b) If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

B-3

(c) If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), and if after such third Trading Day and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue by (B) the closing bid price of the Common Stock at the time of the obligation giving rise to such purchase obligation and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.

(d) The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

6. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

7. Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity (which shall not include a surety bond), if requested. Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New Warrant.

8. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.

B-4

9. Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.

(a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the product obtained by multiplying the then-current Exercise Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

(b) Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding there is a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant (the “Alternate Consideration”). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. At the Holder’s option and request, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall, either (1) issue to the Holder a new warrant substantially in the form of this Warrant and consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to purchase the Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof, or (2) purchase the Warrant from the Holder for a purchase price, payable in cash within five Trading Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction), equal to the Black Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such request. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this paragraph (b) and insuring that the Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

(c) Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 9, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.

B-5

(d) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable. 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, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

(e) Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s Transfer Agent.

10. Payment of Exercise Price. The Holder may pay the Exercise Price in one of the following manners:

(a) Cash Exercise. The Holder may deliver immediately available funds; or

(b) Cashless Exercise. If an Exercise Notice is delivered at a time when a registration statement permitting the Holder to resell the Warrant Shares is not then effective or the prospectus forming a part thereof is not then available to the Holder for the resale of the Warrant Shares, then the Holder may notify the Company in an Exercise Notice of its election to utilize a cashless exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

where:

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.

A = the average of the Closing Prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Date.

B = the Exercise Price.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

11. No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares which would, otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Closing Price of one Warrant Share on the date of exercise.

12. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective if provided pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. In case any time: (1) the Company shall declare any cash dividend on its capital stock; (2) the Company shall pay any dividend payable in stock upon its capital stock or make any distribution to the holders of its capital stock; (3) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its capital stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (4) there shall be any capital reorganization, or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation; or (5) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Holder. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the holders of capital stock of record shall participate in such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, or shall be entitled to exchange their capital stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or conversion or redemption, as the case may be. Such written notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the action in question and not less than 20 days prior to the record date or the date on which the Company’s transfer books are closed in respect thereto.

B-6

13. Registration Rights. The Holder shall be entitled to the registration rights set forth in Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement.

14. Miscellaneous.

(a) This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant. This Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder and their successors and assigns.

(b) All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

(c) The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Warrant and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

(d) In case any one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.

(e) Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder hereof shall not, by reason of by being a Holder, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the Warrant Shares.

3.

To Exhibit D

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering for resale by the selling stockholders and certain transferees a total of _________ shares of Common Stock, of which _______ shares are issued and outstanding and up to ______shares are issuable upon exercise of warrants. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling stockholders of the shares of common stock, although we may receive up to $_____ upon the exercise of all of the warrants by the selling stockholders. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of Common Stock. If the shares of Common Stock are sold through broker-dealers or agents, the selling stockholder will be responsible for any compensation to such broker-dealers or agents.

The selling stockholders may 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 tie pursuant to this prospectus.

The selling stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

The selling stockholders will sell their shares of Common Stock subject to the following:

all of a portion of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders or their perspective pledgees, donees, transferees or successors in interest, may be sold on the OTC Bulletin Board Market, any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the shares of our Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the counter market, in privately negotiated transactions, through the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise, short sales or in a combination of such transactions;

·	each sale may be made at market price prevailing at the time of such sale, at negotiated prices, at fixed prices or at carrying prices determined at the time of sale;

some or all of the shares of Common Stock may be sold through one or more broker-dealers or agents and may involve crosses, block transactions or hedging transactions. The selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or agents, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of Common Stock short and deliver shares of Common Stock to close out short positions or loan or pledge shares of Common Stock to broker-dealers or agents that in turn may sell such shares; and

in connection with such sales through one or more broker-dealers or agents, such broker-dealers or agents may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and may receive commissions from the purchasers of the shares of Common Stock for whom they act as broker-dealer or agent or to whom they sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transaction involved). Any broker-dealer or agent participating in any such sale may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and will be required to deliver a copy of this prospectus to any person who purchases any share of Common Stock from or through such broker-dealer or agent. We have been advised that, as of the date hereof, none of the selling stockholders have made any arrangements with any broker-dealer or agent for the sale of their shares of common stock.

The selling stockholder and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any profits realized by the selling stockholders and any commissions paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. In addition, any shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus. A selling stockholder may also transfer, devise or gift the shares of Common Stock by other means not covered in this prospectus in which case the transferee, devisee or giftee will be the selling stockholder under this prospectus.

D-8

If required at the time a particular offering of the shares of Common Stock is made, a prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statements of which this prospectus is a part, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-deals or agents, any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to broker-dealers.

Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of Common Stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of Common Stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with. There can be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of Common Stock registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.

The selling stockholders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of Common Stock by the selling stockholders and any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of Common Stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock.

We will bear all expenses of the registration of the shares of Common Stock including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with the state securities of “blue sky” laws. The selling stockholders will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions and expenses, brokerage fees and transfer taxes, as well as the fees and disbursements of counsel to and experts for the selling stockholders, if any. We will indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act, in accordance with the registration rights agreement or the selling stockholder will be entitled to contribution. We will be indemnified by the selling stockholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling stockholders for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related securities purchase agreement or will be entitled to contribution. Once sold under this registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of Common Stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.
