The Company further understands and acknowledges that (a) one or more Purchasers may engage in hedging activities at various times during the period that the Notes and Warrants are outstanding and (b) such hedging activities (if any) could reduce the value of the existing stockholders’ equity interests in the Company at and after the time that the hedging activities are being conducted. The Company acknowledges that such aforementioned hedging activities do not constitute a breach of any of the Transaction Documents.

(t) Regulatory Permits. The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in the SEC Documents, except where the failure to possess such permits could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”), and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit.

(u) Title to Assets. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.1(u), the Company and the Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries and good and marketable title in all personal property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all Liens, except for Liens as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries and Liens for the payment of federal, state or other taxes, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with which the Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance.

(v) Disclosure. The Transaction Documents, and the exhibits and schedules attached thereto, when taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers.

Each Purchaser hereby, for itself and for no other Purchaser, represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Company as follows:

Such Purchaser is (i) acquiring the Notes and Warrants and (ii) upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants will acquire the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, for its own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Purchaser does not agree to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or other 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 under the Securities Act. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Such Purchaser does not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute any of the Securities.

(e) Residency. Such Purchaser is a resident of the jurisdiction set forth below such Purchaser’s name on Schedule 1 attached hereto.

(f) Reliance on Exemptions. Such Purchaser understands that the Notes and Warrants are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Purchaser to acquire the Securities.

(g) Information. Such Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all publicly available materials (or such materials have been made available to such Purchaser) relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and such other publicly available materials relating to the offer and sale of the Notes and Warrants as have been requested by such Purchaser, including without limitation the Company’s Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2006 and Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2007. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has read and understands the risk factors set forth in such Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed February 16, 2007, March 1, 2007, March 7, 2007, April 19, 2007, April 26, 2007 and May 23, 2007. Neither such review nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Purchaser or its advisors, if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents. Such

Purchaser understands that its investment in the Notes and Warrants involves a high degree of risk.

(h) No Governmental Review. Such Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Notes and Warrants or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Notes and Warrants, nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Notes and Warrants.

(i) Experience of Such Purchaser. Such Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters, including investing in companies engaged in the business in which the Company is engaged, so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Notes and Warrants, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Notes and Warrants and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Purchaser does not make or has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section 3.2.

ARTICLE IV

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

(a) The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, to the Company, to an Affiliate of a Purchaser (who is an accredited investor and executes a customary representation letter) or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act, provided, however, that in the case of a transfer pursuant to Rule 144, no opinion shall be required if the transferor provides the Company with a customary seller’s representation letter, and if such sale is not pursuant to subsection (k) of Rule 144, a customary broker’s representation letter and a Form 144. Any such transferee that agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement shall have the rights of a Purchaser under this Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement. Except as required by federal securities laws and the securities law of any state or other jurisdiction within the United States, the Securities may be transferred, in whole or in part, by any of the Purchasers at any time. The Company shall reissue certificates evidencing the Securities upon surrender of certificates evidencing the Securities being transferred in accordance with this Section 4.1(a).

(b) The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1(b), of one or more legends, as applicable, on any of the Securities in substantially the following form:

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, SUCH COUNSEL AND THE SUBSTANCE OF SUCH OPINION SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. UNLESS PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, RULE OR REGULATION, THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

and on any Note:

THIS SECURITY AND THE RIGHTS PROVIDED HEREIN ARE SUBJECT IN ALL RESPECTS TO THE TERMS OF THE SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT OF EVEN DATE HEREWITH BETWEEN THE AGENT OF THE PAYEE AND SILICON VALLEY BANK.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that, unless prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation, a Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith; provided, however, that such Purchaser shall provide the Company with such documentation as is reasonably requested by the Company to ensure that the pledge is pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.

(c) Certificates evidencing the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b)), (i) following any sale of such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (ii) if such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k) (and the holder of such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares has submitted a written request for removal of the legend indicating that the holder has complied with the applicable provisions of Rule 144), or (iii) if

such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of the Commission) (and the holder of such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares has submitted a written request for removal of the legend indicating that the holder has complied with the applicable provisions of Rule 144). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent promptly upon the occurrence of any of the events in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. The Company agrees that at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends; provided that the holder of such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares has submitted a written request for removal of the legend indicating that the holder has complied with the applicable provisions of Rule 144. 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.

(d) Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance on, and the Purchaser’s agreement that, and each Purchaser hereby agrees that, the Purchaser will not sell any Securities except pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom.

4.2 Furnishing of Information.

As long as any Purchaser owns Securities, the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act. As long as any Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchasers and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c), such information as is required for the Purchasers to sell the Securities under Rule 144.

4.3 Integration.

The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market.

4.4 Publicity.

The Company shall, within four Business Days following the Closing Date, file a Current Report on Form 8-K, disclosing the transactions contemplated hereby and make such other filings and notices regarding the Contemplated Transactions in the manner and time required by the Commission.

4.5 Reservation of Common Stock.

As of the date hereof, the Company has reserved and the Company shall continue to reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of enabling the Company to issue the maximum number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes and Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

4.6 Listing of Common Stock.

The Company hereby agrees that, from time to time, if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any Trading Market, it will include in such application the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares, and will take such other action as is necessary to cause the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares to be listed on such Trading Market as promptly as possible.

4.7 Director Designee. For as long as any of the Notes issued pursuant to this Agreement remain outstanding, (a) BlueLine Partners, LLC shall have the right, from time to time, to designate one individual, in its sole discretion, to serve as a director of the Company (the “Purchaser Director Designee”), (b) the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Purchaser Director Designee to be nominated and elected for service as director of the Company (the “Purchaser Board Seat”) promptly following the Closing and at each meeting of the Company’s stockholders held for the purpose of electing directors and (c) if at any time, or from time to time, the Purchaser Board Seat is or becomes vacant for any reason prior to the next annual meeting of stockholders, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such vacancy to be filled with a Purchaser Director Designee. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Transaction Documents, the right of BlueLine Partners, LLC set forth in this Section 4.7 shall not be transferable under any circumstances, whether by sale or assignment of Notes hereunder or otherwise.

4.8 Right of Participation. Subject to the exceptions described below, the Company will not conduct any equity financing (including debt with an equity component) (“Future Offerings”) during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending two (2) year after the date of this Agreement unless it shall have first delivered to each Purchaser, at least ten (10) business days prior to the closing of such Future Offering, written notice describing the proposed Future Offering, including the material terms and conditions thereof, and providing each such Purchaser an option during the ten (10) day period following delivery of such notice to purchase its pro rata share (based on the ratio that the aggregate amount of Securities purchased by it hereunder bears to the aggregate amount of Securities purchased by all such Purchasers hereunder) of an aggregate of thirty percent (30%) of the securities being offered in the Future Offering on the same terms as contemplated by such Future Offering (the limitations referred to in this sentence and the preceding sentence are collectively referred to as the “Participation Right”). Upon receipt of an affirmative response from any such Purchaser(s) the Company and such Purchasers shall proceed in good faith with the preparation of definitive transaction agreements. In the event the material terms and conditions of a proposed Future Offering are materially amended after delivery of the notice to such Purchasers concerning the proposed Future Offering, the Company shall deliver a new notice to each Purchaser describing the amended terms and conditions of the proposed Future Offering and each such Purchaser

thereafter shall have an option during the five (5) day period following delivery of such new notice to purchase its pro rata share thirty percent (30%) of the aggregate securities being offered on the same terms as contemplated by such proposed Future Offering, as amended. The foregoing sentence shall apply to successive material amendments to the material terms and conditions of any proposed Future Offering. The Participation Right shall not apply to any transaction involving issuances of securities as consideration for a merger, consolidation or purchase of assets, or in connection with any strategic partnership or joint venture (the primary purpose of which is not to raise equity capital), or in connection with the disposition or acquisition of a business, product or license by the Company, or any bank or lease financing transaction. The Participation Right also shall not apply to the issuance of securities upon exercise or conversion of the Company’s options, warrants or other convertible securities outstanding as of the date hereof or to the grant of additional options or warrants, or the issuance of additional securities, under any Company stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the stockholders of the Company. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.8 to the contrary, in the event the Company’s Board of Directors decides, in good faith, to enter into a transaction or relationship in which the Company issues shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company to a person or any entity which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in a business synergistic with the business of the Company, the Company shall be permitted to do so without any Participation Right hereunder.

4.9 Company Information. Until the earlier of: (i) the second anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) the date that the Notes are no longer outstanding, the Company shall provide the following information to the Purchasers who hold Notes:

(a) Prompt delivery of monthly unaudited income statements, balance sheets, and sales pipeline updates;

(b) Prompt notice of the Company undertaking any debt obligations including loans pursuant to the Silicon Agreement;

(c) Notice of any credit defaults under the Silicon Agreement, or under any other credit facility, as applicable concurrently with the provision of any notice thereof to Silicon Valley Bank or the applicable lender;

(d) Prompt notice, accompanied by copies of any new material developments under any existing or material new partnerships and distribution relationships of the Company; and

(e) Prompt delivery of a monthly schedule of the Company’s material customer wins and losses.

4.10 Negative Covenants. Unless approved in writing by those Purchasers holding a majority of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, the Company (a) shall not declare or pay any dividend or distribution with respect to any common stock of the Company, (b) shall not create and/or issue any classes of preferred stock, and (c) shall not incur any secured indebtedness senior to the Notes.

4.11 Additional Listing Application. The Company shall, promptly following the Closing Date, file an Additional Listing Application with respect to the Conversion Shares and

Warrant Shares with the American Stock Exchange. The Purchasers agree to provide reasonable cooperation with respect to providing any information regarding the Purchasers as is necessary for the American Stock Exchange to process and approve such Additional Listing Application.

4.12 Senior Debt. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Transaction Documents, the Purchasers hereby acknowledge and consent as follows: (i) the Company may continue to borrow under an accounts receivable formula based revolving line of credit pursuant to the Silicon Agreement; and (ii) the Company may replace the Silicon Agreement with another senior debt facility which shall rank senior to the Notes, provided that such replacement senior debt facility is an accounts receivable formula based revolving line of credit secured solely by accounts receivable of the Company.

ARTICLE V

INDEMNIFICATION, TERMINATION AND DAMAGES

5.1 Survival of Representations.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the representations and warranties of the Company and the Purchasers contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing Date and shall continue in full force and effect for a period of two (2) years from the Closing Date. The Company’s and the Purchasers’ warranties and representations shall in no way be affected or diminished in any way by any investigation of (or failure to investigate) the subject matter thereof made by or on behalf of the Company or the Purchasers.

5.2 Indemnification.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers, their Affiliates, each of their officers, directors, employees and agents and their respective successors and assigns, from and against any losses, damages, or expenses which are caused by or arise out of (i) any breach or default in the performance by the Company of any covenant or agreement made by the Company in any of the Transaction Documents; (ii) any breach of warranty or representation made by the Company in any of the Transaction Documents; and/or (iii) any and all third party actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incident to any of the foregoing.

(b) The Purchasers, severally and not jointly, agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Affiliates, each of their officers, directors, employees and agents and their respective successors and assigns, from and against any losses, damages, or expenses which are caused by or arise out of (A) any breach or default in the performance by the Purchasers of any covenant or agreement made by the Purchasers in any of the Transaction Documents; (B) any breach of warranty or representation made by the Purchasers in any of the Transaction Documents; and (C) any and all third party actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incident to any of the foregoing.

5.3 Indemnity Procedure.

A party or parties hereto agreeing to be responsible for or to indemnify against any matter pursuant to this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Indemnifying Party” and the other party or parties claiming indemnity is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”. An Indemnified Party under this Agreement shall, with respect to claims asserted against such party by any third party, give written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any liability which might give rise to a claim for indemnity under this Agreement within sixty (60) Business Days of the receipt of any written claim from any such third party, but not later than twenty (20) days prior to the date any answer or responsive pleading is due, and with respect to other matters for which the Indemnified Party may seek indemnification, give prompt written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any liability which might give rise to a claim for indemnity; provided, however, that any failure to give such notice will not waive any rights of the Indemnified Party except to the extent the rights of the Indemnifying Party are materially prejudiced.

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its election, to take over the defense or settlement of such claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party at least fifteen (15) days prior to the time when an answer or other responsive pleading or notice with respect thereto is required. If the Indemnifying Party makes such election, it may conduct the defense of such claim through counsel of its choosing (subject to the Indemnified Party’s approval of such counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall be solely responsible for the expenses of such defense and shall be bound by the results of its defense or settlement of the claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such claim without prior notice to and consultation with the Indemnified Party, and no such settlement involving any equitable relief or which might have an adverse effect on the Indemnified Party may be agreed to without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). So long as the Indemnifying Party is diligently contesting any such claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party may pay or settle such claim only at its own expense and the Indemnifying Party will not be responsible for the fees of separate legal counsel to the Indemnified Party, unless the named parties to any proceeding include both parties or representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, due to conflicts of interest or otherwise. If the Indemnifying Party does not make such election, or having made such election does not, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party proceed diligently to defend such claim, then the Indemnified Party may (after written notice to the Indemnifying Party), at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, elect to take over the defense of and proceed to handle such claim in its discretion and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any defense or settlement that the Indemnified Party may make in good faith with respect to such claim. In connection therewith, the Indemnifying Party will fully cooperate with the Indemnified Party should the Indemnified Party elect to take over the defense of any such claim. The parties agree to cooperate in defending such third party claims and the Indemnified Party shall provide such cooperation and such access to its books, records and properties (subject to the execution of appropriate non-disclosure agreements) as the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably request with respect to any matter for which indemnification is sought hereunder; and the parties hereto agree to cooperate with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense thereof.

With regard to claims of third parties for which indemnification is payable hereunder, such indemnification shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party upon the earlier to occur of: (i) the entry of a judgment against the Indemnified Party and the expiration of any applicable appeal period, or if earlier, five (5) days prior to the date that the judgment creditor has the right to

execute the judgment; (ii) the entry of an unappealable judgment or final appellate decision against the Indemnified Party; or (iii) a settlement of the claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the reasonable expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed on a current basis by the Indemnifying Party. With regard to other claims for which indemnification is payable hereunder, such indemnification shall be paid promptly by the Indemnifying Party upon demand by the Indemnified Party.

If any certificate or instrument evidencing any of the Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested by the Company.

6.13 Remedies.

In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

6.14 Payment Set Aside.

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

6.15 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights.

The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Document. Except to the extent otherwise specifically provided in the Transaction Documents, 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 the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers.

6.16 Waiver of Trial by Jury.

THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

6.17 Further Assurances.

Each party agrees to cooperate fully with the other parties and to execute such further instruments, documents and agreements and to give such further written assurances as may be reasonably requested by any other party to better evidence and reflect the transactions described herein and contemplated hereby and to carry into effect the intents and purposes of this Agreement, and further agrees to take promptly, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do promptly, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable law to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby, to obtain all necessary waivers, consents and approvals, to effect all necessary registrations and filings, and to remove any injunctions or other impediments or delays, legal or otherwise, in order to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for the purpose of securing to the parties hereto the benefits contemplated by this Agreement.

6.18 Like Treatment.

Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration (immediate or contingent), whether by way of interest, fee, payment for redemption, conversion or exercise of the Securities, or otherwise, to any Purchaser or holder of Securities, for or as an inducement to, or in connection with the solicitation of, any consent, waiver or amendment to any terms or provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, unless such consideration is offered to all Purchasers or holders of Securities bound by such consent, waiver or amendment. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, redeem any Securities unless such offer of redemption is made pro rata to all Purchasers or holders of Securities, as the case may be, on identical terms.
