RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company has authorized the sale to Purchasers of junior Secured Convertible Term Notes in the form of Exhibit B hereto in the aggregate principal amount of $6,000,000 (each as amended, restated, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”), which Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) at an initial fixed conversion price equal to the Redemption Fixed Conversion Price (as defined in the Note);

WHEREAS, the allocation of the purchase price between the Notes and the Warrants shall be determined by the Company as soon as reasonably possible following the Closing Date; and

WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue and sell the applicable Note and Warrant to each Purchaser on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises, representations, warranties and covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Agreement to Sell and Purchase. Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 3), the Company shall sell to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers shall purchase from the Company, the Notes in the amounts set forth opposite their names on Exhibit A (the “Schedule of Purchasers”). The sale of the Notes on the Closing Date shall be known as the “Offering.” The Notes will mature on the Maturity Date (as defined in the Notes). Collectively, the Notes, Warrants and Common Stock, as applicable, issuable upon conversion of the Notes and upon exercise of the Warrants are referred to as the “Securities.”

2. Warrant. On the Closing Date, the Company will sell, issue and deliver to each Purchaser a Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock for each one dollar and fifty cents ($1.50) of a Note purchased by such Purchaser, as set forth next to the name of such Purchaser on the Schedule of Purchasers. All of the representations, covenants, warranties, undertakings, indemnification, and other rights made or granted to or for the benefit of each Creditor Party by the Company are hereby also made and granted for the benefit of the holder of the related Warrant and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrant (the “Warrant Shares”).

3. Closing and Delivery.

3.1 Closing.

(i) The purchase, sale and issuance of the Securities shall take place at one or more closings (each of which is referred to in this Agreement as a “Closing”). At the initial Closing (the “Initial Closing”), the Company shall sell and issue a minimum aggregate principal amount of $2,100,000 (“Minimum Principal”) and up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $6,000,000 (the “Maximum Principal”) in Notes, which Initial Closing shall take place remotely via the exchange of electronic documents on December 31, 2013, or such other date as the parties mutually agree (each such date, a “Closing Date”).

(ii) If less than the Maximum Principal is sold and issued at the Initial Closing, then, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company may sell and issue at one or more subsequent closings (each, a “Subsequent Closing”), within thirty (30) days after the Initial Closing, up to the Maximum Principal. Any such sale and issuance in a Subsequent Closing shall be on the same terms and conditions as those contained herein. Each Subsequent Closing shall take place at such date, time and place as shall be approved by the Company in its discretion.

For the purpose of this Agreement, a “subsidiary” of any person or entity means (i) a corporation or other entity whose shares of stock or other ownership interests having ordinary voting power (other than stock or other ownership interests having such power only by reason of the happening of a contingency) to elect a majority of the directors of such corporation, or other persons or entities performing similar functions for such person or entity, are owned, directly or indirectly, by such person or entity or (ii) a corporation or other entity in which such person or entity owns, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the equity interests at such time;

(E) the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Company, the Agent and the Purchasers in substantially the form of Exhibit F (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) duly executed by the Company; and

(F) all other documents, instruments and agreements entered into in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (the preceding clauses (A) through (E), plus the Escrow Agreement, as defined below, collectively, the “Related Agreements”).

(ii) At the Closing, the Purchasers will deliver:

(q) other minor Liens not described above which do not materially detract from the value of the property subject thereto or materially impair the operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, so long as in each such case, such Liens have no effect on the Lien priority of the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Creditor Parties, in such property.

(a) Quarterly consolidated Financial Statements, as soon as available, and in any event within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter. If Borrower is current in its filing obligations under the Exchange Act and in fact timely files a Form 10-Q with the SEC that is available within said period through XXXXX, this requirement will be deemed satisfied;

(b) Quarterly compliance certificates as soon as Quarterly Financial Statements are available, and in any event within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, signed by the Chief Financial Officer of Company, certifying that as of the end of such quarter the Company is in full compliance with all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement;

(c) Annual consolidated Financial Statements, as soon as available, and in any event within 90 days following the end of Borrower's fiscal year, certified by, and with an unqualified opinion of, independent certified public accountants acceptable to the Agent. If the Company is current in its filing obligations under the Exchange Act and in fact timely files a Form 10-K with the SEC that is available within said period through XXXXX, this requirement will be deemed satisfied; and

(d) such other information as any Creditor Party shall reasonably request.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Financial Statements” means consolidated financial statements of the Company, including any interim reports or any consolidated balance sheets, income statements, stockholders’ equity statements and/or cash flow statements and, in the case of quarterly-required financial statements, showing data for the quarter being reported and a history showing each quarter from the beginning of the relevant fiscal year.

6.2 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds of the sale of the Notes and the Warrants for general working capital purposes. Neither the Company nor any Purchaser is purchasing or carrying any “margin stock” (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and no part of the proceeds of the sale of the Notes and the Warrants will be used to purchase or carry any “margin stock” or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any “margin stock.”

6.3 Taxes.

(a) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries will promptly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, when due and payable, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the income, profits, property or business of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that any such tax, assessment, charge or levy need not be paid currently if (i) the validity thereof shall currently and diligently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, (ii) such tax, assessment, charge or levy shall have no effect on the lien priority of the Agent in any property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (iii) if the Company and/or such Subsidiary shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP; and provided, further, that the Company and its Subsidiaries will pay all such taxes, assessments, charges or levies forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any lien which may have attached as security therefor.

(b) All payments made by the Company under this Agreement or any Note shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future Taxes (as defined below) now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, other than Excluded Taxes (as defined below). If any Non-Excluded Taxes (as defined below) or Other Taxes (as defined below) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to any Creditor Party under this Agreement or any Note, the amounts so payable to such Creditor Party shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to such Creditor Party (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, including those imposed on payments made pursuant to this paragraph (b) of this Section 6.3 or any such other amounts payable in this Agreement or any Note at the rates or in the amounts specified herein or therein), an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deductions been made provided, however, that no Company shall be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Creditor Party with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes that are directly attributable to such Creditor Party’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (e) of this Section 6.3.

(c) In addition, the Company shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(d) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Company, as promptly as possible thereafter the Company shall send to the Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Purchaser, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Company showing payment thereof (or such other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Agent). If the Company fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Company shall indemnify the Creditor Parties for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by any Creditor Party as a result of any such failure.

(e) Each Purchaser (or its assignee) that is not a “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Purchaser”) shall deliver to the Company and the Agent two completed originals of an appropriate U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as applicable, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Purchaser. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Purchaser on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, each Non-U.S. Purchaser shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Purchaser. Each Non-U.S. Purchaser shall promptly notify the Company at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Company (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (e), a Non-U.S. Purchaser shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Purchaser is not legally able to deliver.

(f) The agreements in the preceding paragraphs (b), (c), (d), (e) and this paragraph (f) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder or thereunder or under any other Related Agreement.

6.4 Insurance. The Company shall bear the full risk of loss from any loss of any nature whatsoever with respect to the Collateral and the Company and each of its Subsidiaries will, jointly and severally, bear the full risk of loss from any loss of any nature whatsoever with respect to the assets pledged to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Creditor Parties, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Master Security Agreement). Furthermore, the Company will insure or cause the Collateral to be insured against loss or damage by fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, theft, burglary, pilferage, loss in transit and other risks customarily insured against by companies in similar business similarly situated as the Company and its Subsidiaries including but not limited to workers compensation, public and product liability and business interruption, and such other hazards as the Agent shall specify in amounts and under insurance policies and bonds by insurers acceptable to the Agent and all premiums thereon shall be paid by the Company and the policies delivered to the Agent.

From the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the Purchasers shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities or (ii) the three (3) year anniversary of the date of this Agreement (such period is referred to herein as the “Reporting Period”), the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act even if the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would no longer require or otherwise permit such termination.

6.7 Listing or Quotation. The Common Stock is currently traded only on the Principal Market and the Company shall take all necessary actions to maintain the trading of the Common Stock on the Principal Market. If the Common Stock becomes listed or designated for quotation on any other Eligible Market (as defined below), then the Company shall promptly secure the listing or designation for quotation (as the case may be) of all of the Registrable Securities upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which the Common Stock is then listed or designated for quotation (as the case may be) (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain such listing or designation for quotation (as the case may be) of all Registrable Securities from time to time issuable under the terms of this Agreement and other Related Agreements on such then applicable national securities exchange or automated quotation system.

If in the future, the Common Stock becomes listed or designated for quotation on any of The New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market or the OTC Bulletin Board (each, together with the Principal Market, an “Eligible Market”), the Company shall maintain the Common Stock’s listing or designation for quotation (as the case may be) on such market or another Eligible Market. Except in connection with a change of Eligible Market, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action which could be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on an Eligible Market on which the Common Stock is then traded, listed or designated for quotation.

The Company shall pay, and hold each Purchaser harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any claim relating to any such payment, except for payments that are determined to be due to such third parties as a result of commitments made by the Purchasers. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement or the other Related Agreements, each party to this Agreement shall bear its own expenses in connection with the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers.

6.9 Pledge of Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Securities may be pledged by a Purchaser in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Securities. The pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and no Purchaser effecting a pledge of Securities shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Related Agreement. The Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Securities to such pledgee by a Purchaser.

From and after the issuance of the press release or 8-K Filing, whichever is earlier, the Company shall have disclosed all material, non-public information (if any) delivered to any of the Purchasers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Related Agreements. The Company shall not, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide any Purchaser with any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and after the issuance of the press release or 8-K Filing, as the case may be, without the express prior written consent of such Purchaser. In the event of a breach of any of the foregoing covenants or any of the covenants contained in this Section by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (as determined in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Purchaser), in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the other Related Agreements, such Purchaser shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such material, non-public information without the prior approval by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents.

Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company, its Subsidiaries nor any Purchaser shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Purchaser, to make any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the press release or the 8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith and (ii) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) each Purchaser shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release). Without the prior written consent of the applicable Purchaser, the Company shall not (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and affiliates to not) disclose the name of such Purchaser in any filing (other than the 8-K Filing), announcement, release or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary and without implication that the contrary would otherwise be true, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser has had, and no Purchaser shall have (unless expressly agreed to by a particular Purchaser after the date hereof in a written definitive and binding agreement executed by the Company and such particular Purchaser (it being understood and agreed that no Purchaser may bind any other Purchaser with respect thereto)), any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, any information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

6.11 Reservation of Shares. So long as any of the Notes or Warrants remain outstanding or unexpired and unexercised, the Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, no less than 125% of the aggregate of (i) the maximum number of Note Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes (assuming for purposes hereof that the Notes are convertible at the initial Conversion Price (as defined in the Notes) and without taking into account any limitations on the conversion of the Notes set forth therein) and (ii) the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (assuming that all Warrants are exercised and without taking into account any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants set forth therein).

Each Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company and its Subsidiaries to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.

6.20 Further Assurances. The Company agrees, at its expense, on reasonable request by the Agent, to execute all documents and take all actions, and to procure that each other Subsidiary controlled by such Subsidiary execute all documents and take all actions as Agent may in its good faith business judgment deem necessary or useful in order to perfect and maintain Agent's security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Master Security Agreement), and in order to fully consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.21 Minimum Cash and Accounts Receivable. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall: (1) from the Closing Date through January 31, 2014, at all times (but reported quarterly in the Compliance Certificate) maintain the sum of (a) unrestricted and unencumbered cash of cash equivalents plus (b) all accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries Cash of not less than $6,250,000; and (2) from February 1, 2014 through the Maturity Date, maintain the sum of (a) unrestricted and unencumbered cash of cash equivalents plus (b) all accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries, of not less than $7,500,000.

6.23 Allocations. As soon as reasonably possible following the Closing Date, the Company shall make an allocation of the purchase price between the Notes and the Warrants and shall provide each Purchaser with such allocation.

6.24 Additional Registration of Securities. The Company agrees that for the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the date immediately following the thirty (30) Trading Day (as defined in the Warrant) anniversary of the Applicable Date (provided that such period shall be extended by the number of days during such period and any extension thereof contemplated by this proviso on which the Registration Statement is not effective or any prospectus contained therein is not available for use) (the “Restricted Period”), neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall directly or indirectly register for resale any securities issued after the date hereof. “Applicable Date” means the first date on which the resale by the Purchasers of all Registrable Securities is covered by one or more effective Registration Statements (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) (and each prospectus contained therein is available for use on such date).

6.25 Fees. The Company shall pay to Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky & Popeo, P.C., counsel for Chardan Capital Markets, LLC up to $50,000 in legal fees ($20,000 of which has already been paid) actually and accountably incurred in connection with the Offering. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement and the Related Agreements Documents, each party to this Agreement shall bear its own expenses in connection with the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers.

7. Covenants of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser covenants and agrees with the Company as follows:

7.1 Confidentiality. Subject to Section 6.10, no Purchaser will disclose, nor will it include in any public announcement, the name of the Company, unless expressly agreed to by the Company or unless and until such disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation, and then only to the extent of such requirement.

7.2 Non-Public Information. No Purchaser will affect any sales in the shares of the Common Stock while in possession of material, non-public information regarding the Company if such sales would violate applicable securities law.

8. Covenants of the Company and the Purchasers Regarding Indemnification.

8.1 Company Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend each Creditor Party, each of such Creditor Party’s officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons, and shareholders, against all claims, costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations, losses or damages (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon such Creditor Party which result, arise out of or are based upon: (i) any misrepresentation by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or breach of any warranty by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in this Agreement, any other Related Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or thereto; or (ii) any breach or default in performance by Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by Company or any of its Subsidiaries hereunder, under any other Related Agreement or any other agreement entered into by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and such Creditor Party relating hereto or thereto.

8.2 Purchaser Indemnification. Each Purchaser agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company and each of the Company’s officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons and shareholders, at all times against any claims, costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations, losses or damages (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company which result, arise out of or are based upon: (i) any misrepresentation by such Purchaser or breach of any warranty by such Purchaser in this Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or any Related Agreement; or (ii) any breach or default in performance by such Purchaser of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by such Purchaser hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and such Purchaser relating hereto.

9. Register; Transfer Agent Instructions; Legend.

9.1 Register. The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each holder of Securities), a register for the Warrants in which the Company shall record the name and address of the Person in whose name the Warrants have been issued (including the name and address of each transferee), and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Person. The Company shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Purchaser or its legal representatives.

9.2 Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent and any subsequent transfer agent in a form acceptable to each of the Purchasers (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) to issue certificates, registered in the name of each Purchaser or its respective nominee(s), for the Note Shares and the Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Purchaser to the Company upon conversion of the Notes or the exercise of the Warrants (as the case may be). The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 9.2 will be given by the Company to its transfer agent with respect to the Securities, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company, as applicable, to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. If a Purchaser effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities, the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Purchaser to effect such sale, transfer or assignment. In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves Note Shares or Warrant Shares sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144, the transfer agent shall issue such shares to such Purchaser, assignee or transferee (as the case may be) without any restrictive legend in accordance with Section 9.3 below. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to each Purchaser. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 9.2 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 9.2, that each Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal opinion referred to in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to the Company’s transfer agent on each Effective Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). If a Purchaser or any subsequent holder of the Securities proposes to transfer the Securities held by such Person pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall provide necessary opinions to its transfer agent, if requested, provided that such Purchaser or such subsequent holder, as the case may be, provides the necessary representations as requested by the Company’s counsel. Any fees (with respect to the transfer agent, counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinion or the removal of any legends on any of the Securities shall be borne by the Company.

9.3 Removal of Legends. Certificates evidencing Securities shall not be required to contain the legend set forth in Section 9.2 above or any other legend (i) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to a registration statement (including a Registration Statement) covering the resale of such Securities is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an affiliate of the Company), (iii) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer (other than under Rule 144), provided that such Buyer provides the Company with an opinion of counsel to such Buyer, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including, without limitation, controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC). If a legend is not required pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall no later than two (2) Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the transfer agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such Securities (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer, if applicable), together with any other deliveries from such Purchaser as may be required above in this Section 9.3, as directed by such Purchaser, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to such Purchaser, a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends, registered in the name of such Purchaser or its designee (the date by which such certificate is required to be delivered to such Purchaser pursuant to the foregoing is referred to herein as the “Required Delivery Date”).

9.4 Failure to Timely Deliver; Buy-In. If the Company fails to issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to a Purchaser by the Required Delivery Date a certificate representing the Securities so delivered to the Company by such Purchaser that is free from all restrictive and other legends, then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Purchaser, the Company shall pay in cash to such Purchaser on each Trading Day after the Required Delivery Date that the issuance or credit of such shares is not timely effected an amount equal to 1% of the product of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock not so delivered or credited (as the case may be) to such Purchaser or such Purchaser’s nominee multiplied by (B) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Required Delivery Date. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company fails to so properly deliver such unlegended certificates by the Required Delivery Date, and if on or after the Required Delivery Date such Purchaser (or any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of such Purchaser) purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Purchaser of all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock, or a sale of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock, that such Purchaser so anticipated receiving from the Company without any restrictive legend, then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Purchaser, the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days after such Purchaser’s request and in such Purchaser’s sole discretion, either (i) pay cash to such Purchaser in an amount equal to such Purchaser’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so deliver such certificate or credit such Purchaser’s balance account shall terminate and such shares shall be cancelled, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so deliver to such Purchaser a certificate representing such number of shares of Common Stock that would have been so delivered if the Company timely complied with its obligations hereunder and pay cash to such Purchaser in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Note Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) that the Company was required to deliver to such Purchaser by the Required Delivery Date multiplied by (B) the lowest Closing Sale Price (as defined in the Warrants) of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the delivery by such Purchaser to the Company of the applicable Note Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this clause (ii).

10. Miscellaneous.

10.1 Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Waiver of Jury Trial.

THE COMPANY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND THE COMPANY HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS. THE COMPANY HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO THE COMPANY AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF THE COMPANY’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID.

(c) THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE BETWEEN ANY CREDITOR PARTY AND/OR THE COMPANY ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER RELATED AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO.

10.2 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement and the Related Agreements shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement or any Related Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid or illegal under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity or illegality, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions thereof which shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

10.3 Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein shall survive any investigation made by any Creditor Party and the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby to the extent provided therein. All statements as to factual matters contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be representations and warranties by the Company hereunder solely as of the date of such certificate or instrument. All indemnities set forth herein shall survive the execution, delivery and termination of this Agreement and the Notes and the making and repayment of the obligations arising hereunder, under the Notes and under the other Related Agreements.

10.4 Successors.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each Person which shall be a holder of the Securities from time to time, other than the holders of Common Stock which has been sold by any Purchaser pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or an effective registration statement. Each Purchaser may assign any or all of the Obligations to any Person and, subject to acceptance and recordation thereof by the Agent pursuant to Section 10.4(b) and receipt by the Agent of a copy of the agreement or instrument pursuant to which such assignment is made (each such agreement or instrument, an “Assignment Agreement”), any such assignee shall succeed to all of such Purchaser’s rights with respect thereto. Upon such assignment, such Purchaser shall be released from all responsibility for the Collateral (as defined in the Master Security Agreement) to the extent same is assigned to any transferee. Each Purchaser may from time to time sell or otherwise grant participations in any of the Obligations (as defined in the Master Security Agreement) and the holder of any such participation shall, subject to the terms of any agreement between such Purchaser and such holder, be entitled to the same benefits as such Purchaser with respect to any security for the Obligations in which such holder is a participant. The Company agrees that each such holder may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off and counterclaim with respect to its participation in the Obligations as fully as though the Company were directly indebted to such holder in the amount of such participation. The Company may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent. All of the terms, conditions, promises, covenants, provisions and warranties of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of each of the undersigned, and shall bind the representatives, successors and permitted assigns of the Company.

(b) The Agent shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, for this purpose only as agent of the Company, (i) a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and (ii) a book entry system, within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation Sections 15f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c) (the “Register”), in which it will register the name and address of each Purchase and the name and address of each assignee of each Purchaser under this Agreement, and the principal amount of, and stated interest on, the Notes owing to each such Purchaser and assignee pursuant to the terms hereof and each Assignment Agreement. The right, title and interest of the Purchasers and their assignees in and to such Notes shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register, and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein. The Company and each Creditor Party shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof as a Purchaser and owner of an interest in the Obligations hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary or any notation of ownership or other writing or any Note. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company or any Purchaser, at any reasonable time and from time to time, upon reasonable prior notice.

10.5 Entire Agreement; Maximum Interest. This Agreement, the Related Agreements, the exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects. Nothing contained in this Agreement, any Related Agreement or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum rate permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to the Purchasers and thus refunded to the Company.

10.6 Amendment and Waiver.

(a) This Agreement and the other Related Agreements may not be modified, altered or amended except by an agreement in writing signed by the Company, Agent and Purchasers holding greater than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes (the “Required Purchasers”) as provided in paragraph (b) below.

(b) The Required Purchasers or the Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Purchasers, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, may, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.6(b), from time to time enter into written supplemental agreements to this Agreement, the Notes or the other Related Agreements executed by the Company, for the purpose of adding or deleting any provisions or otherwise changing, varying or waiving in any manner the rights of Purchasers, Agent or the Company thereunder or the conditions, provisions or terms thereof of waiving any Event of Default thereunder, but only to the extent specified in such written agreements; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of all the Purchasers and with respect to clause (iv) below, the consent of Agent:

(i) extend the maturity of any Note or the due date for any amount payable hereunder, or decrease the rate of interest or reduce any principal payment due on the Notes;

(ii) alter the definition of the term Required Purchasers or alter, amend or modify this Section 10.6(b);

(iii) release (x) any Subsidiary form its obligations under any Subsidiary Guaranty or (y) any Collateral during any calendar year having an aggregate value in excess of $100,000, other than Collateral which is permitted to be sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to the Master Security Agreement;

(iv) change the rights and duties of the Agent; or

(v) change any provision in this Agreement or any Related Agreement in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments or setoffs required thereby.

Any such supplemental agreement shall apply equally to each of the Purchasers and shall be binding upon the Company, the Purchasers and Agent and all future holders of the Notes. In the case of any waiver, the Company, the Purchasers and Agent shall be restored to their former positions and rights, and any Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no waiver of a specific Event of Default shall extend to any subsequent Event of Default (whether or not the subsequent Event of Default is the same as the Event of Default which was waived), or impair any right consequent thereon. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement or the Related Agreements unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement or the Related Agreements, all holders of Notes or all holders of the Warrants (as the case may be).

10.7 Delays or Omissions. It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach, default or noncompliance by another party under this Agreement or the Related Agreements, shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. All remedies, either under this Agreement or the Related Agreements, by law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

10.8 Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given:

(a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified;

(b) three (3) business days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid; or

(c) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt.

or at such other address as the Company or the applicable Creditor Party may designate by written notice to the other parties hereto given in accordance herewith.

10.9 Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement.

10.10 Signatures; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or electronic signatures and in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one agreement.

10.11 Construction. Each party acknowledges that its legal counsel participated in the preparation of this Agreement and the Related Agreements and, therefore, stipulates that the rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in the interpretation of this Agreement or any Related Agreement to favor any party against the other.

10.12 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement and the Related Agreements are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any of such agreements. Nothing contained herein or in any Related Agreement, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as, and the Company acknowledges that the Purchasers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Related Agreements or any matters, and the Company acknowledges that the Purchasers are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Related Agreements. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement or the Related Agreements has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser. Each Purchaser acknowledges that no other Purchaser has acted as agent for such Purchaser in connection with such Purchaser making its investment hereunder and that no other Purchaser will be acting as agent of such Purchaser in connection with monitoring such Purchaser’s investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under this Agreement or the Related Agreements. The Company and each Purchaser confirms that each Purchaser has independently participated with the Company and its Subsidiaries in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any Related Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The use of a single agreement to effectuate the purchase and sale of the Securities contemplated hereby was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of any Purchaser, and was done solely for the convenience of the Company and its Subsidiaries and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Purchaser. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each Related Agreement is between the Company, each Subsidiary and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.

10.13 Agency.

(a) Each Purchaser hereby designates Chardan Capital Markets, LLC to act as agent for such Purchaser under this Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Related Agreements. Each Purchaser hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement, the Master Security Agreement and the other Related Agreements and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and Agent shall hold all Collateral, payments of principal and interest, fees received pursuant to this Agreement, for the ratable benefit of Purchasers. Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Purchasers, and such instructions shall be binding; provided, however, that Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or the Related Agreements or applicable law unless Agent is furnished with an indemnification reasonably satisfactory to Agent with respect thereto.

(b) Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Related Agreements. Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted by them as such hereunder or in connection herewith, unless caused by their gross (not mere) negligence or willful misconduct, or (ii) responsible in any manner for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by Company or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement, or in any Related Agreement or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any Related Agreement or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or any Related Agreement or for any failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder. Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Purchaser to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any Related Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Company. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Purchaser and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein.

(c) Independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Purchaser, each Purchaser has made and shall continue to make (A) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Company, and (B) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Company. Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Purchaser with any credit or other information with respect thereto. Agent shall not be responsible to any Purchaser for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any agreement, document, certificate or a statement delivered in connection with or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Related Agreement, or of the financial condition of the Company, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the Notes, the Related Agreements or the financial condition of the Company, or the existence of any Event of Default.

(d) If Agent shall request instructions from Purchasers with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Related Agreement, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Purchasers; and Agent shall not incur liability to any person or entity by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, Purchasers shall not have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of its acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.

(e) Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telecopier message, order or other document or telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and the other Related Agreements and its duties hereunder, upon the reasonable advice of counsel selected by it. Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by Agent with reasonable care.

(f) Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, the Notes or under the other Related Agreements, unless Agent has received notice from a Purchaser or the Company referring to this Agreement or the other Related Agreements, describing such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that Agent receives such a notice, Agent shall give notice thereof to the Purchasers. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Purchasers; provided, that, unless and until Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of Purchasers.
