Prospectus Summary

This summary highlights some information from this prospectus, and it may not contain all of the information that is important to you. You should read the following summary together with the more detailed information regarding our company and the shares being sold in this offering, including “Risk Factors” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes, included elsewhere in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus.

Our Company

We develop and publish interactive entertainment software products. We currently publish titles for interactive entertainment hardware platforms, such as Sony’s PlayStation and PlayStation 2, Nintendo’s Gamecube, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance, Microsoft’s Xbox, portable handheld devices manufactured by Palm and Handspring, and for personal computers or PCs. We were incorporated in California in October 1999 under the name Bay Area Multimedia, Inc. We reincorporated in Delaware in September 2000 and changed our name to BAM! Entertainment, Inc. in December 2000. We commenced operations in October 1999 and shipped our first products in June 2000.

We license properties from a wide variety of sources, and publish titles based on the motion picture, sports and television properties of our licensors. We have entered into strategic license arrangements with entertainment and media companies that have developed well-known characters and brands and that are producing popular properties that are expected to form the basis of some of our future products.

We have offices in both the United States and Europe. International operations outside of North America are conducted through our office in England, where we perform international sales and marketing activities and manage local third-party developers. Domestically, we sell our products to mass merchandisers such as Toys “R” Us, Target, Kmart, Wal-Mart and Best Buy, specialty chains such as GameStop and Electronics Boutique, and independent distributors. Internationally, we sell our products through mass merchandisers, distributors and sub-distributors. Our products are manufactured exclusively by third parties.

We have experienced recurring net losses from inception (October 7, 1999) through September 30, 2003. During the three months ended September 30, 2003, we used cash in operating activities of $3.0 million and incurred a net loss of $1.7 million. As of September 30, 2003, we had cash and cash equivalents of $617,000 and an accumulated deficit of $61.5 million. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We will need to raise additional funds in order to satisfy our future liquidity requirements. These funds may come from either one or a combination of additional financings, exercise of outstanding warrants and additional investment rights, mergers or acquisitions, or via the sale or license of certain of our assets. Current market conditions present uncertainty as to our ability to secure additional financing or effectuate any merger or acquisition, as well as our ability to reach profitability. There can be no assurances that we will be able to secure additional financing or effectuate any such merger or acquisition, or obtain favorable terms on such financing if it is available, or as to our ability to achieve positive cash flow from operations. Continued negative cash flows create significant uncertainty about our ability to implement our operating plan and we may have to further reduce the scope of our planned operations. If cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we will not have sufficient resources to continue operations for the next six months.

Securities Offered

On October 1, 2003, we completed the sale of 1,850,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase another 1,665,000 shares of our common stock, resulting in gross proceeds (assuming no exercise of the warrants) of $1,776,000, in a private offering to institutional and accredited investors. The warrants have a five-year term and are exercisable at $1.87 per share. Certain placement agents utilized in connection with the private offering were issued warrants to purchase 277,500 shares of our common stock having identical terms as the warrants issued to the investors, except that these warrants are subject to a 180 day lock-up provision. We also issued to the investors additional investment rights to purchase an additional 1,111,625 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase another 1,000,462 shares of our common stock. These additional investment rights are in fact options to purchase common stock and warrants together as a unit, not separately, at the prices described below. The shares of common stock underlying the additional investment rights are purchasable at $0.96 per share and the warrants underlying the additional investment rights have a five-year term and are exercisable at the greater of (i) $1.87 and (ii) the lesser of (x) the closing bid price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the business day immediately preceding the exercise date of the additional investment right, and (y) the average of the closing bid price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market for the five business days immediately preceding the exercise date of the

additional investment right. The additional investment rights are exercisable until 45 business days after the effectiveness of this registration statement. The shares of our common stock issued on October 1, 2003 and issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued on October 1, 2003 and upon exercise of the additional investment rights (but excluding the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants underlying the additional investment rights) are being offered by this prospectus. We have agreed to not offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of any debt or equity securities, with certain exceptions, until this registration statement is declared effective, and we granted to certain of the investors rights of first refusal with respect to any certain issuances of our securities for periods of up to two years following the effective date of this registration statement.

Special Note on Forward Looking Statements

This prospectus and the documents and information incorporated by reference in this prospectus, such as from “Item 1. Business” and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our possible or assumed future operating results, business strategies, financing plans, competitive position, industry environment, the anticipated impact on our business and financial results of recent and future acquisitions, the effects of competition, our ability to produce new products in a cost-effective manner and estimates relating to our industry. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words like “believes,” “intends,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should” or “anticipates,” or the negative equivalents of those words or comparable terminology, and by discussions of strategies that involve risks and uncertainties.

Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements for a number of reasons, including those appearing elsewhere in this prospectus under the heading “Risk Factors.” In addition, we base forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events, which may not prove to be accurate. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you should be aware that the forward-looking events described in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus may not occur.

Risk Factors

You should carefully consider and evaluate all of the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including the following risk factors, before deciding to invest in our notes. Any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, which in turn could adversely affect the price of the notes and our common stock.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS

If we are unable to successfully obtain additional financing or enter into a merger or acquisition, we may not have sufficient cash to continue operations for the next six months.

Although we raised gross proceeds of approximately $1.8 million through the sale of our common stock, warrants and additional investment rights on October 1, 2003 and $1.5 million through the sale of a promissory note and warrants on December 4, 2003, we will need to raise additional funds. These funds may come from either one or a combination of additional financings, exercise of outstanding warrants and additional investment rights, mergers or acquisitions, or otherwise obtain capital via sale or license of certain of our assets, in order to satisfy our future liquidity requirements. Current market conditions present uncertainty as to our ability to secure additional financing or effectuate any merger or acquisition, as well as our ability to reach profitability. There can be no assurances that we will be able to secure additional financing or effectuate any such merger or acquisition, or obtain favorable terms on such financing if it is available, or as to our ability to achieve positive cash flow from operations. Continued negative cash flows create significant uncertainty about our ability to implement our operating plan and we may have to further reduce the scope of our planned operations. If cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we will not have sufficient resources to continue operations for the next six months.

Because we have a limited operating history, it is difficult to evaluate an investment in our common stock.

We were organized in October 1999 and released our first interactive entertainment software product in June 2000. It is difficult to evaluate our future prospects and an investment in our common stock because we have a limited operating history and the market for our products is rapidly evolving. Our prospects are uncertain and must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the early stage of development.

Our future performance will depend upon a number of factors, including our ability to:

    secure additional financing and fund purchases of inventory;
 
    expand our domestic and international customer base;
 
    secure popular entertainment properties upon which to base future products;
 
    develop and enhance products in response to new interactive entertainment hardware platform releases, customer demand and competitive market conditions;
 
    expand our interactive entertainment software development and sales and marketing capabilities;
 
    expand our international operations;
 
    attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel; and

Table of Contents

    maintain adequate control of our expenses.

We have a history of operating losses and may never achieve profitability.

We incurred net losses of $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003, $36.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2003, $15.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2002 and $1.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2001. We will need to generate significant revenues and control expenses to achieve profitability. There can be no assurance that our revenues will grow in the future or that we will achieve sufficient revenues for profitability. If we fail to achieve profitability, or sustain or increase profitability if we achieve it, this will have a negative impact on our operating results.

Our revenues fluctuate due to seasonal demand and the nature of the interactive entertainment industry.

We have experienced and may continue to experience significant quarterly fluctuations in net sales and operating results. The interactive entertainment industry is highly seasonal, with sales typically higher during the fourth and first calendar quarters. This is due primarily to the increased demand for games during and immediately following the holiday buying season. Our failure or inability to introduce products on a timely basis to meet seasonal fluctuations in demand will, and historically have, harmed our business and operating results.

Our operating results would be, and historically have been, harmed by a decrease in sales, price erosions, and a failure to meet our sales expectations. Uncertainties associated with interactive entertainment software development, lengthy manufacturing lead times, production delays and the approval process for products by hardware manufacturers and other licensors make it difficult to predict the quarter in which our products will ship.

These and other factors could harm our business and have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

Product development schedules are frequently unpredictable, which may result in revenues and earnings not meeting analysts’ expectations.

Product development schedules for software products, particularly for new hardware platforms such as Sony’s PlayStation 2, Nintendo’s GameCube and Microsoft’s Xbox, are difficult to predict because they involve creative processes, use of new development tools for new platforms and the learning process, research and development, and experimentation associated with development for new technologies. Our revenues and earnings are dependent on our ability to meet our product release schedules, and our failure to meet those schedules have resulted in, and may again result in, revenues and earnings that fall short of analysts’ expectations for any individual quarter and the fiscal year.

Our earnings will be affected upon the issuance of shares of our common stock pursuant to third-party entertainment property license agreements.

Pursuant to a license agreement with a production company, we are obligated to issue 68,738 shares of our common stock after the release of any film for which we elect to produce interactive entertainment software products, up to 10 films or 687,375 shares of common stock. To date, we have elected to produce titles for three films and have issued 137,476 shares under this agreement for an aggregate value of $816,000. We are required to issue these shares when the films are released and will then incur a non-

Table of Contents

cash charge. We cannot estimate the aggregate dollar amount of these future non-cash charges as they will be based on our share price at a future point in time, but they may be substantial. All of the non-cash charges on the shares issued to date under the agreement had been amortized as of September 30, 2003.

In connection with the issuance of warrants pursuant to a separate license agreement with another production company, we incurred a non-cash charge of $97,000. We had amortized $8,000 of this charge as of June 30, 2003. The remaining charge will be amortized upon release of the software products on which the warrants are issued, over the life of the products, expected to be between three and six months commencing upon release of the products, which occurred in September 2003. As of September 30, 2003, we had amortized $12,000 of this charge. Under the agreement, additional warrants to purchase up to an additional 15,000 shares may be issued, contingent upon certain future events occurring. Upon issuance of the warrants we will incur an additional non-cash charge. We cannot estimate the aggregate dollar amount of these future non-cash charges as they are based on our share price at future points in time. Each of these future charges will affect our gross margins and profitability.

In connection with the issuance of warrants pursuant to a first look agreement with another production company, we granted a warrant to purchase up to 200,000 shares of our common stock, of which 15,000 became immediately exercisable upon the signing of the agreement. The remaining 185,000 will only become exercisable, in multiples of either 4,625 or 13,875 shares, upon certain future events occurring relating to the development and release of products. Upon the warrant for 15,000 shares becoming exercisable, we incurred a non-cash charge of $29,000, which has been fully amortized as of June 30, 2003. We will incur additional non-cash charges as the remaining 185,000 shares become exercisable. Upon release of the software products on which the warrants are exercisable, we will amortize the non-cash charges over the life of the products, which are expected to be between three and six months. We cannot estimate the aggregate dollar amount of these future non-cash charges as they will be based on our share price at future points in time. Each of these future charges will affect our gross margins and profitability.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Our ability to effectuate additional financing transactions to fund our operations could impair the value of your investment.

Although we raised gross proceeds of approximately $1.8 million through the sale of our common stock, warrants and additional investment rights on October 1, 2003 and $1.5 million through the sale of a promissory note and warrants in December 2003, if we are not acquired by or merge with another entity or if we are not able to raise additional capital via sale or license of certain of our assets, we will need to consummate additional financing transactions pursuant to which we receive additional liquidity. These additional financings will likely take the form of us raising additional capital through either one or a combination of public or private equity offerings or debt financings and the exercise of outstanding warrants and additional investment rights. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders will likely experience substantial dilution. Also, any new equity securities may have greater rights, preferences or privileges than our existing common stock.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet our future capital requirements.

If we are not acquired by or merge with another entity or if we are not able to raise additional capital via sale or license of certain of our assets, we will need to consummate additional financing transactions pursuant to which we receive additional liquidity. We cannot be certain that additional capital will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. If we cannot effectuate financing transactions to raise needed funds on acceptable terms, we will not be able to develop or enhance our products, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. A material shortage of capital will require us to take drastic steps such as reducing our level of operations, disposing of selected assets or seeking protection under federal bankruptcy laws.

Table of Contents

We depend on a relatively limited number of products for a significant portion of our revenues.

A significant portion of our revenues is derived each quarter from a relatively limited number of products that were released in that quarter or the or in the immediately preceding quarter. During the three months ended September 30, 2003, sales of four products each accounted for between 9% and 41% of our net revenues, during the year ended June 30, 2003, sales of four products each accounted for between 9% and 13% of our net revenues. During the year ended June 30, 2002, sales of four products each accounted for between 7% and 11% of our net revenues, while during the year ended June 30, 2001, sales of four products each accounted for between 14% and 28% of our net revenues. We expect that a limited number of products will continue to produce a disproportionately large amount of our net revenues. Due to this dependence on a limited number of brands, the failure of one or more products to achieve anticipated results could, and in the past has, significantly harmed our business and operating results.

We cannot assure you that new products introduced by us will achieve significant market acceptance and be sufficient in order for us to achieve profitability.

The interactive entertainment software market is characterized by short product life cycles, continually changing consumer preferences that are difficult to predict and frequent introduction of new products. The life cycle of a game generally consists of a relatively high level of sales during the first few months after introduction, followed by a decline in sales, and sales price erosion. Even the most successful titles remain popular for only limited periods of time, often less than six months. We believe that our success will be dependent on the production of successful titles on a continuous basis. We cannot assure you that new products introduced by us will achieve significant market acceptance or that such acceptance, if achieved, will be sufficient in order for us to achieve profitability.

The development cycle for new titles is long and during this time the market appeal of a title may decline.

We believe the development cycle for new titles is long, typically ranging from 12 to 24 months. After development of the initial product, we believe it may take between six and 12 additional months to develop the product for additional hardware platforms. In order to distribute a product, we must develop and test the necessary game software, obtain approval from the manufacturer and licensor if required, and have the initial order of cartridges or disks manufactured. During the development cycle, the market appeal of a title or of a property on which the title is based may decline. If market acceptance is not achieved, we may, and historically have, granted markdown allowances to maintain our relationship with retailers and our access to distribution channels. Because we introduce a relatively limited number of new products in a given period, the failure of one or more of our products to achieve market acceptance could and have harmed our business.

The introduction of new interactive entertainment hardware platforms creates risks relating to the development of titles for those hardware platforms.

The interactive entertainment industry is also characterized by rapid technological change. For example, the 128-bit hardware platform was released within five years of the release of the 64-bit hardware platform. As a result, we must continually anticipate these changes and adapt our offerings to emerging hardware platforms and evolving consumer preferences. Generally, because of the length of the development cycle, our development efforts must begin well in advance of the release of new hardware platforms in order to introduce titles on a timely basis with the release of such hardware platforms. Further, we have no control over the release dates of new hardware platforms or the number of units that will be shipped upon such release. It is difficult to ensure that our schedule for releasing new titles will coincide with the release of the corresponding hardware platforms. Additionally, if fewer than expected units of a new hardware platform are produced or shipped, such as occurred with Microsoft’s Xbox and

8


Table of Contents

Nintendo’s Gamecube and Game Boy Advance, developers of titles for those hardware platforms may experience lower than expected sales.

The introduction of new hardware platforms and technologies can also render existing titles obsolete and unmarketable. Generally, as more advanced hardware platforms are introduced, consumer demand for titles for older hardware platforms diminishes. In addition, a broad range of competing and incompatible emerging technologies may lead consumers to postpone buying decisions until a particular hardware platform gains widespread acceptance. As a result of such reduced consumer demand for titles on older hardware platforms, our titles for older hardware platforms may not generate sufficient sales to make our titles profitable.

The development of software products is complex and time consuming and may not lead to marketable titles.

The development of software products is complex and time consuming. Our development efforts may not lead to marketable titles or titles that generate sufficient revenues to recover their development and marketing costs, especially if a hardware platform does not reach or sustain an expected level of acceptance. This risk may increase in the future, as continuing increases in development costs require corresponding increases in net sales in order for us to achieve profitability.

The technological advancements of the most popular hardware platforms also allow more complex software products. As software products become more complex, the risk of undetected errors in products when first introduced increases. We cannot assure you that, despite testing, errors will not be found in new products or releases after shipments have been made, resulting in loss of or delay in timely market acceptance, product returns, loss of revenues and damage to our reputation. In the past, we have experienced delays in the introduction of new titles and we anticipate that we will experience similar delays in the future in connection with the introduction of additional new titles, including products currently under development. Because net revenues associated with the initial shipments of a new product generally constitute a high percentage of the total net revenues associated with the life of a product, any delay in the introduction of, or the presence of a defect in, one or more new products could harm the ultimate success of the products or our business and operating results.

The costs of developing and marketing products for existing and anticipated interactive entertainment hardware platforms can be substantial and could negatively impact our business.

The costs associated with the introduction of products for new hardware platforms, such as Sony’s PlayStation 2, Nintendo’s GameCube and Microsoft’s Xbox, could harm our business as we believe the costs of developing and publishing titles for these hardware platforms require greater financial and technical resources than prior development and publishing efforts. Additionally, during periods of new technology introductions, forecasting our revenues and earnings is more difficult than in more stable or rising product markets.

If interactive entertainment hardware platforms fail to achieve significant market acceptance, it may harm our business.

Our sales are dependent on, among other factors, the popularity and unit sales of the interactive entertainment hardware platforms of the various manufacturers. The interactive entertainment industry has experienced periods of significant growth in consumer interest and popularity, followed by periods in which consumer demand for interactive entertainment products has slowed. Unexpected shortfalls in the market acceptance of a particular hardware platform, such as occurred with Microsoft’s Xbox and Nintendo’s Gamecube and Game Boy Advance, can and have significantly harmed consumer demand for titles released or scheduled for release for that hardware platform. Therefore, we are dependent upon the

Table of Contents

successful marketing efforts of the manufacturers of the various hardware platforms to meet financial expectations.

Over 98% of our net revenues are derived from sales to our three largest customers. We could be adversely affected if any of them reduced or terminated their purchases from us or did not pay their obligations to us.

Revenues from our three largest customers collectively accounted for 98% of our net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2003, as compared to 34% of our net revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2002. Revenues from our four largest customers collectively accounted for 48% of our net revenues for the year ended June 30, 2003, as compared to 48% of our net revenues for the year ended June 30, 2002, and 52% of our revenues for the year ended June 30, 2001. As of September 30, 2003, four customers each accounted for between 5% and 28% of our gross trade accounts receivable, as of June 30, 2003, four customers each accounted for between 8% and 19% of our gross trade accounts receivable, as of June 30, 2002, four customers each accounted for between 8% and 12% of our gross trade accounts receivable and as of June 30, 2001, four customers each accounted for between 9% and 23% of our gross trade accounts receivable. We have no written agreements or other understandings with any of our customers that relate to future purchases. Therefore, purchases by these customers or any others could be reduced or terminated at any time. A substantial reduction or a termination of purchases by any of our largest customers would negatively impact us.

Substantially all of our sales are made on credit, which exposes us to bad debt risk.

Our sales are typically made on credit, with terms that vary depending upon the customer and other factors. While we attempt to carefully monitor the creditworthiness of our customers and distributors, we bear the risk of their inability to pay our receivables and of any delay in payment. A business failure by any of our largest customers, such as occurred with Kmart in January 2002, would negatively impact us, as could a business failure by any of our distributors or other retailers.

Product returns and markdown allowances could negatively impact our business.

We have experienced, and are exposed to the risk of product returns and markdown allowances with respect to our customers. The decrease in demand for products based upon older hardware platforms may lead to a high level of these product returns and markdown allowances. We also allow distributors and retailers to return defective and damaged products in accordance with negotiated terms. Product returns and markdown allowances that exceed our expectations could negatively impact our business.

We cannot publish our interactive entertainment software titles without the approval of hardware manufacturers. Our ability to continue to develop and market our titles is dependent on the hardware manufacturers continuing to do business with us.

We are wholly dependent on the manufacturers of interactive entertainment hardware platforms and our ability to obtain or maintain non-exclusive licenses with them, both for the rights to publish and to manufacture titles for their hardware platforms. We are required to obtain a license to develop and publish titles for each hardware platform for which we develop and publish titles. Each license specifies the territory to which it applies, and such licenses range from as broad as multi-national distribution to as narrow as approval on a title-by-title basis. Our existing hardware platform licenses for Sony’s PlayStation and PlayStation 2, Nintendo’s Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance, Nintendo 64, Nintendo GameCube, and Microsoft’s Xbox require that we obtain approval for the publication of new titles on a title-by-title basis. As a result, the number of titles we are able to publish for these hardware platforms, along with our ability to time the release of these titles is dependent upon decisions made by third party manufacturers. Accordingly, our revenues from titles for these hardware platforms may be limited. Should any manufacturer choose not to renew or extend our license agreement at the end of its current term, or if the manufacturer were to terminate our license for any reason, we would be unable to publish additional titles for that manufacturer’s hardware platform.

10


Table of Contents

We are dependent on Sony and Nintendo for the manufacture of products that we develop for their hardware platforms.

When we develop interactive entertainment software titles for a hardware platform offered by Sony or Nintendo, the products are manufactured exclusively by that hardware manufacturer. Our hardware platform licenses with Sony and Nintendo provide that the manufacturer may change prices for the manufacturing of products at any time. In addition, these licenses include other provisions that give the manufacturer substantial control over our costs and the release of new titles. Since each of the manufacturers is also a publisher of games for its own hardware platforms and manufactures products for all of its other licensees, a manufacturer may give priority to its own products or those of our competitors in the event of insufficient manufacturing capacity. We would be materially harmed by unanticipated delays in the manufacturing and delivery of products.

If we cannot retain our key personnel and attract and retain additional key personnel, our business will be harmed.

We depend to a significant extent on the contributions and industry experience of our key personnel, in particular our Chief Executive Officer, Raymond C. Musci, and our Vice Chairman, Anthony R. Williams. If we fail to retain the services of our key personnel, our ability to secure additional licenses and develop and sell new products might be impaired. In addition, our future success will also depend upon our ability to continue to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified employees and third-party contractors, particularly software design and development personnel and outside sales representatives. Competition for highly skilled employees is intense and we may not be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel.

We are dependent upon licenses to properties originated and owned by third parties for the development of our titles.

Many of our titles, such as those from our Powerpuff Girls series, Dexter’s Laboratory series, Ecks v Sever and Reign of Fire are based upon entertainment properties licensed from third parties. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain new licenses, or renew existing ones, on reasonable terms, if at all. If we are unable to obtain licenses for the properties which we believe offer significant consumer appeal, we would be required to obtain licenses for less popular properties or would have to develop all of our titles based upon internally developed concepts.

To the extent a licensed property is less popular than we anticipate, or is unsuccessful, sales of titles based on that property may be negatively impacted.

We have in the past experienced unsuccessful releases of titles based on properties that we licensed from third parties. Titles based on less popular properties, or on internally developed concepts, typically require greater marketing expense in order to establish brand identity and may not achieve broad market acceptance or prove to be successful.

We are dependent on third-party interactive entertainment software developers for developing and completing our titles.

We rely on third-party interactive entertainment software developers for the development of our interactive entertainment software titles. Quality third-party developers are continually in high demand. For this reason, we cannot assure you that the third-party software developers who have developed titles for us in the past will continue to be available to develop software for us in the future. Due to the limited number of third-party software developers and the lack of control that we exercise over them, we cannot assure you that these developers will complete titles for us on a timely basis or within acceptable quality standards, if at all.

Our future success is highly dependent on our proprietary software and intellectual property.

We rely primarily on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements and other methods to protect our proprietary rights. We require our employees, consultants and other outside individuals and entities to execute confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements upon the start of employment, consulting or other contractual relationships with us. However, our ability to police these individuals and entities and enforce these agreements is costly and uncertain. We are aware that unauthorized copying occurs within our industry. If a significantly greater amount of unauthorized copying of our interactive entertainment software products were to occur, our business would be harmed. We generally obtain ownership of the software code and related documentation from third-party software developers. In instances where we do not retain sole ownership of the source code, the owner may use or license the code for development of other software products that may compete directly with our products and we may not have sufficient rights in the source code to produce derivative products.

We rely on existing copyright laws to prevent unauthorized distribution of our products. Existing copyright laws afford only limited protection. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and software piracy is a persistent problem, especially in international markets. In addition, the laws of some countries in which our products are or may be distributed either do not protect our products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States or are weakly enforced. Legal protection of our rights may be ineffective in these countries. Any unauthorized use of our proprietary information could result in costly and time-consuming litigation to enforce our proprietary rights.

Other parties may assert claims against us that we are infringing upon their intellectual property rights and we are required to indemnify hardware manufacturers from certain claims in exchange for the right to purchase titles and manufacture our software for their hardware application.

We cannot be certain that our products do not infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others. We may be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, including claims of alleged infringement of the intellectual property rights of third parties. If our products violate third-party proprietary rights, we cannot assure you that we would be able to obtain licenses to continue offering such products on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. In addition, we must indemnify the hardware manufacturers with respect to all loss, liability and expense resulting from any claim against them involving the development, marketing, sale or use of our products. This includes any claims for copyright or trademark infringement brought against them. As a result, we bear the risk that the properties upon which our software titles are based, or that the information and technology licensed from the hardware manufacturer and incorporated in our software, may infringe the rights of third parties. Any claims against us or the parties we indemnify relating to the infringement of third-party proprietary rights, even if not meritorious, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. Their claims could also result in injunctions preventing us from offering these products. Such claims could severely harm our financial condition and ability to compete.

We face risks associated with doing business in foreign countries, including our ability to generate international demand for our products.

We intend to increase our international revenues. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate international market demand for our products. International sales and operations are subject to a number of risks, including:

    international consumer acceptance of existing and proposed titles;

12


Table of Contents

    the impact of possible recessions in foreign economies;
 
    our ability to protect our intellectual property;
 
    the time and costs associated with translating and localizing products for foreign markets;
 
    foreign currency fluctuations;
 
    unexpected changes in regulatory requirements;
 
    difficulties and costs of staffing and managing foreign operations, or licensing to foreign entities ; and
 
    political and economic instability.

A significant downturn in general economic condition which results in a reduction in discretionary spending has reduced, and may continue to reduce, demand for our products and could harm our business.

Our product sales are affected by a retail customer’s ability and desire to spend disposable income on the purchase of our software titles. Any significant downturn in general economic conditions which results in a reduction of discretionary spending could result in a reduction in demand for our products and could harm our business. The United States economy is currently undergoing a period of slowdown, which some observers view as a recession. The United States and world economic condition has been worsened by the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. Moreover, any further terrorist activities, or the effect of the United States’ political, economic or military response to such activities, could result in the further deterioration of the United States and world economy. Such industry downturns have been, and may continue to be, characterized by diminished product demand and erosion of average selling prices. A continued economic downturn or recession would have a significant adverse effect on our operating results in future periods.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY

Competition within the interactive entertainment software industry is intense and poses an ongoing threat to the success of our business.

The interactive entertainment industry is intensely competitive. Many of our competitors have greater name recognition among consumers and licensors of entertainment properties, broader product lines and greater financial, marketing and other resources than us. Accordingly, these competitors may be able to market their products more effectively, make larger offers or guarantees in connection with the acquisition of licensed entertainment properties, adopt more aggressive pricing policies or pay more to third-party developers. We believe that other technology, entertainment and media companies are increasing their focus on the interactive entertainment software market, which might result in greater competition for us. In addition, many of our competitors are developing online interactive entertainment software products and interactive networks that will be competitive with our interactive entertainment software products.

Competitive pressures could have the following effects on us:

    as competition for popular entertainment properties increases, our cost of acquiring licenses for

13


Table of Contents

      those properties may increase, resulting in reduced margins;
 
    we might not be able to achieve full distribution of our products with our customers;
 
    as competition for retail shelf space becomes more intense, we may need to increase our marketing expenditures to maintain sales of our interactive entertainment software titles; and
 
    we could be required to reduce the wholesale unit prices of our titles.

Competition for limited shelf space and promotional resources among interactive entertainment software publishers is intense and poses an ongoing threat to the success of our business.

There is intense competition among developers and publishers of interactive entertainment software products for high quality retail shelf space and promotional support from retailers. As the number of titles and hardware platforms increases, competition for shelf space will intensify and may require us to increase our marketing expenditures. Due to increased competition for limited shelf space, retailers and distributors are in an increasingly better position to negotiate favorable terms of sale, including price discounts, price protection, marketing and display fees and product return policies. Our products constitute a relatively small percentage of any retailer’s sales volume, and we cannot assure you that retailers will continue to purchase our products or to provide our products with adequate levels of shelf space and promotional support. As a result of their positions in the industry, the manufacturers of interactive entertainment hardware platforms generally have better bargaining positions with respect to retail pricing, shelf space and retailer accommodations than do any of their licensees, including us.

Government restrictions including the possible adoption of an interactive entertainment software rating system could harm our business.

Legislation is periodically introduced at the state and federal levels in the United States and in foreign countries to establish a system for providing consumers with information about graphic violence and sexually explicit material contained in interactive entertainment software products. Under such a system, interactive entertainment software publishers would be expected to comply by identifying particular products within defined rating categories. In addition, these publishers would be required to communicate these ratings to consumers through appropriate package labeling and through advertising and marketing presentations consistent with each product’s rating. Many foreign countries have laws which permit governmental entities to censor the content of products, including interactive entertainment software. In some instances, we may be required to modify our products to comply with the requirement of such governmental entities, which could delay the release of those products in such countries. These delays could harm our business. We currently voluntarily submit our products to industry-created review boards and publish their ratings on our game packaging. Some retailers may refuse to carry titles that bear an unacceptable rating. We believe that mandatory government-run interactive entertainment software products rating systems eventually will be adopted in many countries which represent significant markets or potential markets for us. Due to the uncertainties in the implementation of such a rating system, confusion in the marketplace may occur. We are unable to predict what effect, if any, such a rating system would have on our business.

Potential opposition by consumer advocacy groups to certain software content could harm our business.

Consumer advocacy groups have in the past opposed sales of interactive entertainment software products containing graphic violence and sexually explicit content. These groups have pressed for legislation in

14


Table of Contents

these areas and engaged in public demonstrations and media campaigns. While to date such actions have not harmed our business, we cannot assure you that these groups will not target our products in the future. If that occurs, we may be required to significantly change or discontinue one or more of our titles.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

Our stock price has been volatile and we expect it to continue to be volatile.

Prior to our initial public offering in November 2001, there was no public market for our common stock. Since our initial public offering the market price of our common stock has been volatile. We have experienced a decline in the market price of our common stock from the initial public offering price. The stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that affected the market price for the common stock of many technology, communications and entertainment and media companies. These market fluctuations were sometimes unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Any significant stock market fluctuations in the future, irrespective of our actual performance or prospects, could result in a further decline in the market price of our common stock.

If our common stock is delisted from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the liquidity and price of our common stock may be adversely affected.

Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. In order for our common stock to continue to be listed on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, however, we must continue to satisfy specified listing maintenance standards established by Nasdaq, including (i) required levels of total assets, net tangible assets, stockholders’ equity or revenues, (ii) minimum market value of our public float and (iii) a minimum bid price per share.

We transferred to The Nasdaq SmallCap Market from The Nasdaq National Market on March 27, 2003. Nasdaq advised us at the time of transfer that we met all the specified listing requirements of The Nasdaq SmallCap Market with the exception of the minimum $1.00 bid price per share requirement and that we had until November 17, 2003 to regain compliance with this requirement. On September 29, 2003, Nasdaq advised us that we had regained compliance with all required listing standards of The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. We currently do not meet The Nasdaq SmallCap Market’s required levels of stockholders’ equity, net income or market value of listed securities, one of which must be met to satisfy the required listing standards. On November 24, 2003, we received a notification letter from Nasdaq that our common stock fails to meet these required listing standards. We have until December 16, 2003 to provide Nasdaq with a plan setting forth how we expect to regain compliance with the required listing standards. The notification letter does not result in the delisting of our common stock; however, if our plan of compliance is not accepted by Nasdaq, we will receive a staff determination letter of delisting. At that time, we would have the opportunity to appeal Nasdaq’s decision to delist our common stock.

If our common stock is delisted from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, our common stock would trade on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, which is viewed by most investors as a less desirable and less liquid marketplace. In addition, we would incur penalties under the terms of our October 2003 financing. Thus, delisting from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market would adversely affect our financial condition and the liquidity and price of our common stock and would have a long-term impact on our ability to raise additional capital in the future.

Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and in Delaware law could prevent or delay a change in control and, as a result, negatively impact our stockholders.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition or make removal of incumbent directors or officers more difficult. These provisions may discourage takeover attempts and bids for our common stock at a premium over the market price. These provisions include:

    the ability of our board of directors to alter our bylaws without stockholder approval;
 
    the restriction on the ability of stockholders to call special meetings;
 
    the restriction on the ability of our stockholders to act by written consent;

15


Table of Contents

    the establishment of advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by stockholders at stockholders meetings; and
 
    the establishment of a classified board of directors with staggered, three-year terms, which prevents a majority of the board from being elected at one time.

In addition, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a merger, asset or stock sale or other transaction with an interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date such person became an interested stockholder, unless prior approval of our board of directors is obtained or as otherwise provided. These provisions of Delaware law also may discourage, delay or prevent someone from acquiring or merging with us without obtaining the prior approval of our board of directors, which may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

Use of Proceeds

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale by any selling stockholder of the 4,904,125 shares of our common stock being offered in this prospectus. If the warrants that were issued to the selling stockholders to purchase 1,942,500 shares of our common stock are exercised, we will receive estimated proceeds of $3.6 million. If the additional investment rights that were granted to the selling stockholders to purchase an additional 1,111,625 shares of our common stock are exercised, we will receive estimated proceeds of $1.1 million. All of such proceeds would be issued for general corporate purposes including working capital and possible acquisitions, although we currently have no commitments or agreements and are not involved in any negotiations with respect to any acquisitions of companies, products or assets. We will incur approximately $150,000 of expenses relating to the registration of the shares being offered and sold by the selling stockholders, including the SEC registration fee and legal, accounting, printing and other expenses of this offering; a portion of the proceeds, if any, received from the exercise of the warrants or additional investment rights referenced above may be used to pay such expenses.

Selling Stockholders

On October 1, 2003, we sold and issued (i) 1,850,000 shares of our common stock, (ii) warrants to purchase 1,942,500 shares of our common stock (including warrants to purchase 277,500 shares of common stock issued to certain placement agents utilized in connection with the offering) and (iii) additional investment rights to purchase 1,111,625 additional shares of our common stock and additional warrants to purchase 1,000,462 shares of our common stock, pursuant to transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Selling stockholders may exercise the warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, and they may exercise additional investment rights to purchase shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase additional shares of our common stock. The issued shares of common stock, the shares of common stock underlying the warrants and the shares of common stock underlying the additional investment rights are being registered to permit public sales of the shares, and the selling stockholders may offer the shares for resale from time to time pursuant to this prospectus.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the selling stockholders and the shares offered by them in this prospectus. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to the securities, or the right to acquire voting or investment power within 60 days through the exercise of an option, warrant or right, through the conversion of a security, or through the power to revoke a trust. All shares of our common stock registered in this offering represent shares issued to each selling stockholder or shares that have been or may be acquired within 60 days of October 6, 2003 upon the exercise of the warrants issued to each selling stockholder. The percentage ownership is calculated based on 16,672,928 shares, which represents the number of shares of our commons stock that were outstanding as of October 6, 2003, and the total number of shares issuable to each selling stockholder upon the exercise of the warrants. The shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants by each selling stockholder, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other selling stockholder. Except for our agreement to issue additional shares of our common stock and warrants upon exercise of the additional investment rights as described above, none of the selling stockholders within the past three years has had any material relationship with us or any of our affiliates. To our knowledge, subject to applicable community property laws, each person named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of common stock set forth opposite such person’s name, unless otherwise indicated in the table.

Plan of Distribution

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

19


Table of Contents

  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
 
  block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
  purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
  an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
  privately negotiated transactions;
 
  short sales after this registration statement becomes effective;
 
  broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
  a combination of any such methods of sale; and
 
  any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

The selling stockholders may also engage in short sales against the box after this registration statement becomes effective, puts and calls and other transactions in our securities or derivatives of our securities and may sell or deliver shares in connection with these trades.

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved. Any profits on the resale of shares of common stock by a broker-dealer acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act of 1933. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares will be borne by a selling stockholder. The selling stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the Securities Act of 1933.

The selling stockholders may from time to time 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 time under this prospectus after we have filed an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.

The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus and may sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.

Inc. are registered broker-dealers and are deemed “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with the sale of their shares of common stock pursuant to this prospectus.

In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by them may be, and as to JAS Securities Ltd. and HD Brous & Co., Inc. will be, deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares of common stock. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Under Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, we can indemnify our directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Our certificate of incorporation provides that, pursuant to Delaware law, our directors shall not be liable for monetary damages for breach of the directors’ fiduciary duty of care to us and our stockholders. This provision in the certificate of incorporation does not eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of nonmonetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations of the law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.

Our bylaws provide for the indemnification of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Our bylaws further provide that our Board of Directors has sole discretion to indemnify our officers and other employees. We may limit the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with our directors and executive officers, but have not done so. We are not, however, required to indemnify any director or executive officer in connection with any proceeding initiated by us and approved by a majority of our Board of Directors, that alleges (a) unlawful misappropriation of corporate assets, (b) disclosure of confidential information or (c) any other willful breach of such director or executive officer’s duty to us or our stockholders. We are required to advance, prior to the final disposition of any proceeding, promptly on request, all expenses incurred by any director or executive officer in connection with that proceeding on receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of that director or executive officer to repay those amounts if it should be determined ultimately that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws or otherwise.

We also have directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.

Item 17. Undertakings

     The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

1.   To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

  a)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”);
 
  b)   To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post- effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in

II-2


Table of Contents

      volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
 
  c)   To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a) and (b) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

2.   That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
3.   To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
4.   The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
5.   The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report to security holders that is incorporated by reference in the prospectus and furnished pursuant to and meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and, where interim financial information required to be presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X are not set forth in the prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by reference in the prospectus to provide such interim financial information.
 
6.   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
7.   The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

  a)   For the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or

II-3


Table of Contents

      497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
  b)   For the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

The Issued Shares and Convertible Securities were originally issued by the Company in a private placement completed on October 1, 2003 (the "Private Placement").

For purposes of rendering that opinion, we have examined the Registration Statement, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws, as amended, and the corporate action of the Company that provides for the issuance of the Shares, and we have made such other investigation as we have deemed appropriate. We have examined and relied upon certificates of public officials and, as to certain matters of fact that are material to our opinion, we have also relied on a certificate of an officer of the Company. In rendering our opinion, we also have made the assumptions that are customary in opinion letters of this kind. We have not verified any of those assumptions. Our opinion set forth below is limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law, including the applicable provisions of the Delaware Constitution and reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws. Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the 4,904,125 Shares are duly authorized for issuance by the Company and that (a) 1,850,000 of the Shares of Common Stock are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Common Stock of the Company and (b) upon the exercise of the Convertible Securities in accordance with the terms of the documents underlying the Private Placement, 3,054,125 of the Shares of Common Stock will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Common Stock of the Company.

The Purchaser understands that the Purchaser must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely, unless the Securities are registered pursuant to the Securities Act and any applicable state securities or blue sky laws or an exemption from such registration is available, and that the Company has no present intention of registering any such Securities other than as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreements. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3(a) to the contrary, by making the foregoing representation, the Purchaser does not agree to hold 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 from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws; provided, that in the case of any transfer of the Securities pursuant to an exemption, such transfer is made in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(e). b.

The Purchaser has been furnished all materials (excluding any material nonpublic information) relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities that have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and has received what the Purchaser believes to be satisfactory answers to any such inquiries. The Purchaser understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. c. Governmental Review. The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities. d. Authorization; Enforcement. The Purchaser has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to purchase the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof. This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Purchaser and is a valid and binding agreement of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other laws affecting creditors' rights and remedies generally and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity). 4 e. Transfer or Resale. The Purchaser understands that (i) except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreements, the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be transferred unless (a) subsequently registered thereunder or sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act, or (b) the Purchaser shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the Securities to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred under an exemption from such registration, and (ii) neither the Company nor any other Person is under any obligation to register such Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder, in each case, other than pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreements. f. Legends. The Purchaser understands that the Securities may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form: [NEITHER] THESE SECURITIES [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE] 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"), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS UNLESS OFFERED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNDER AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THOSE LAWS. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THESE SECURITIES [AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES] MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES. Certificates evidencing Securities shall not be required to contain such legend or any other legend (i) while a Registration Statement covering the resale of such Securities is effective under the Securities Act provided the Purchasers at the time any of the Purchasers request a removal of the Legend on any certificate evidencing all or any portion of any of the Securities or to transfer any of the same, it (or a broker acting on such Purchaser's behalf) provides to the Company (or to the Transfer Agent on the Company's behalf), reasonable written assurances to the effect that any of the Securities, sold or to be sold by such Purchasers have been, or will be, sold in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth in the Prospectus and in compliance with the prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act., or (ii) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act 5 (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of the SEC). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal opinion included in the Transfer Agent Instructions to the Transfer Agent on the Effective Date. Following the Effective Date or at such earlier time as a legend is no longer required for certain Securities, the Company will no later than three Business Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a legended certificate representing such Securities, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends. 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. The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement secured by the Securities and, if required under the terms of such agreement, loan or 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 the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith, but such legal opinion may be required in connection with a subsequent transfer following default by the Purchaser transferee of the pledge. Further, 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. g. Investor Status. The Purchaser is an "ACCREDITED INVESTOR" within the meaning of Rule 501 Regulation D under the Securities Act. In the normal course of its business, it invests in or purchases securities similar to the Securities and it has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of purchasing the Securities. The Purchaser is not a registered broker dealer or an Affiliate of any broker or dealer registered under Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act, or a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a Person engaged in the business of being a broker dealer. h. Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Securities are characterized as "restricted securities" under the U.S. federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. i. No Short Positions or Stock Ownership. Except as previously disclosed to the Company in writing, each Purchaser has not, prior to the 30 Business Days prior to the Closing Date, entered into any Short Sales. For purposes of this Section 3.2(i), a "SHORT SALE" by a Purchaser means a sale of Common Stock that is marked as a short sale and that is executed at a time when such Purchaser has no equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock. For purposes of determining whether a Purchaser has an equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock, all Common Stock and all Common Stock that would be issuable upon conversion or exercise in full of all Options then held by such Purchaser (assuming that such 6 Options were then fully convertible or exercisable, notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary, and giving effect to any conversion or exercise price adjustments scheduled to take effect in the future) shall be deemed to be held long by such Purchaser. 4.

None of the Company's tax returns have been or is being audited by any taxing authority. p. No General Solicitation. Neither the Company nor to the knowledge of the Company any Person participating on the Company's behalf in the transactions contemplated hereby has conducted any "general solicitation" or "general advertising" as such terms are used in Regulation D, with respect to any of the Securities being offered hereby; provided, however, that the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the activities of any of the placement agents or any Affiliate of any of them engaged by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively the "PLACEMENT AGENTS"). q. Securities Laws. Neither the Company, nor any Affiliate of the Company, nor any Person acting on its behalf or on behalf of such Affiliate, has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would require registration of the Securities being offered hereby under the Securities Act or cause this offering of Securities to be integrated with any prior offering of securities of the Company for purposes of the Securities Act provided, however, that the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the activities of any of the Placement Agents or any of Affiliate of any of them. Assuming the truth and accuracy of the Purchasers' representations and warranties, the offer, sale and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants will be exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act. 12 r. Form S-3 Eligibility. The Company is currently eligible to register the resale of its Common Stock on a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act. The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances (including without limitation any required approvals or waivers of any circumstances that may delay or prevent the obtaining of accountant's consents) that would prohibit or delay the preparation and filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreements) provided that such registration is not deemed a "primary offering" in which case the Company could face potential qualification problems regarding the requirement of having an aggregate market value held by non-affiliates of $75 million or more. s. Disclosure. The Company confirms that 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, nonpublic information. The Company understands and confirms that each of the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All disclosure provided to the Purchasers regarding the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Schedules to this Agreement, furnished by or on behalf of the Company 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 the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. No event or circumstance has occurred or information exists with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or their business, properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed, except, until such time as the press release is issued as contemplated by Section 5(i), the execution of this Agreement. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 3. t. Solvency. Based on the financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date, (i) the Company's fair saleable value of its assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company's existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature; (ii) the Company's assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for the current fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof; and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). u. Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, 13 (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. v. Transactions With Affiliates and Employees. Except as set forth on Schedule 4(v), none of the officers or directors of the Company and, to the knowledge of the Company, none of the employees of the Company is presently a party to any transaction with the Company or any Subsidiary (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner. 5.

The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Purchaser promptly after such filing. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary to qualify the Securities for sale to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or "blue sky" laws of the states of the United States or obtain exemption therefrom, and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to each Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date. c. Reporting Status. So long as a Purchaser beneficially owns any Securities or has the right to acquire any Securities pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, and 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 permit such termination. d. Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares, the Warrants and the Additional Investment Rights, including proceeds received upon exercise of the Additional Investment Rights, for general corporate purposes and working capital, but in no event shall the Company use such net proceeds to repurchase any outstanding securities of the Company. e. Financial Information. For the Registration Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreements), the Company agrees to send to each Purchaser within ten days after the filing with the SEC, to the extent not available through the SEC's EDGAR system, a copy of its Annual Report on Form 10-K, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, its proxy and information statements and any Current Reports on Form 8-K. f. Reservation of Shares. The Company has and shall at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to 14 provide for the issuance of the Shares as provided in Section 2 hereof, and the full exercise of the Warrants, the Additional Investment Rights and the Additional Investment Right Warrants and the issuance of the Warrant Shares, the Additional Investment Right Shares and the Additional Investment Right Warrants Shares in connection therewith and as otherwise required hereby and thereby. The Company shall not reduce the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under this Agreement (except as a result of the issuance of the Shares hereunder), the Warrants (except as a result of the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants), the Additional Investment Rights (except as a result of the issuance of Additional Investment Right Shares upon exercise of the Additional Investment Rights and except as a result of the issuance of the Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Additional Investment Right Warrants) or the Registration Rights Agreements, without the consent of the Purchasers. g. Listing. The Company will apply for the listing of the Shares, Warrant Shares, the Additional Investment Right Shares and the Additional Investment Right Warrants Shares, in each case, upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed or quoted and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all Shares and Additional Investment Rights Shares from time to time issuable hereunder and under the Additional Investment Rights, respectively, and all Warrant Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares from time to time issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Additional Investment Right Warrants, respectively. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to include its shares of Common Stock in The Nasdaq Stock Market at the earliest practical date and, in any event, by the date the first registration statement covering the resale of the Shares is declared effective by the SEC and will comply in all respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market. h. No Integrated Offerings. The Company shall not make any offers or sales of any security (other than the Securities) under circumstances that would require registration of the Securities being offered or sold hereunder under the Securities Act or cause this offering of Securities to be integrated with any other non-exempt offering of securities other than the Additional Investment Rights and securities issuable thereunder, warrants issuable to any of the Placement Agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants. i. Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, on or before 9:30 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, on September 30, issue a press release reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers disclosing the transactions contemplated hereby. No later than the first Business Day following the Closing Date, the Company shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC (the "8-K FILING") describing the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and including as exhibits to such Current Report on Form 8-K this Agreement and the form of Warrants, in the form required by the Exchange Act. Thereafter, the Company shall timely make any filings and notices required by the SEC or applicable law with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and provide copies thereof to the Purchasers promptly after filing. Except with respect to the 8-K Filing and the press release referenced above (a copy of which will be provided to the Purchasers for their review as early as practicable prior to its filing), the Company shall, at least two Business Days prior to the filing or dissemination of any disclosure required by this paragraph, provide a copy thereof to the Purchasers for their review. The 15 Company and the Purchasers shall consult with each other in issuing any press releases or otherwise making public statements or filings and other communications with the SEC or any regulatory agency or The Nasdaq Stock Market with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither party shall issue any such press release or otherwise make any such public statement, filing or other communication without the prior consent of the other, except if such disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement, filing or other communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any filing with the SEC or any regulatory agency or The Nasdaq Stock Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except to the extent such disclosure (but not any disclosure as to the controlling Persons thereof) is required by law or The Nasdaq Stock Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure. The Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide any Purchaser with any material nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and after the filing of the 8-K Filing without the express written consent of such Purchaser. No Purchaser shall have any liability to the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders or agents for any such disclosure. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Purchaser, to make any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith and (ii) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) the Purchasers shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release). Each press release disseminated in the United States to the public generally during the 12 months preceding the date of this Agreement did not at the time of release contain any untrue statement of a material fact. j. 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 Securities and Exchange Act of 1933, as amended (the "EXCHANGE ACT"). Upon the request of any Purchaser, the Company shall deliver to such Purchaser a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with the preceding sentence. During the earlier of (i) the date two years from the Closing Date or (ii) as long as any Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchasers and make publicly available in accordance with paragraph (c) of Rule 144 such information as is required for the Purchasers to sell the Securities under Rule 144. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request to satisfy the provisions of Rule 144 applicable to the issuer of securities relating to transactions for the sale of securities pursuant to Rule 144. k. Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, 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 16 offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market. l. Subsequent Placements. (1) From the date hereof until the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreements) is declared effective by the SEC (the "BLOCKOUT PERIOD"), the Company will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition of) any of its or the Subsidiaries' equity or equity equivalent securities, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security that is, at any time during its life and under any circumstances, convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (any such offer, sale, grant, disposition or announcement being referred to as a "SUBSEQUENT PLACEMENT"). The restrictions contained in this Section 5(1) shall not apply to Excluded Stock (as defined below). (2) From the end of the Blockout Period until the one year anniversary thereof, the Company will not, directly or indirectly, effect any Subsequent Placement unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section 5(1)(2). (i) The Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice (the "OFFER") of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange of the securities being offered (the "OFFERED SECURITIES") in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer shall (w) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (x) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (y) identify the Persons or entities (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (z) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with each Purchaser the Offered Securities, based on such Purchaser's pro rata portion of the aggregate purchase price paid by the Purchasers for all of the Shares purchased hereunder (the "BASIC AMOUNT"), and with respect to each Purchaser that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Purchasers as such Purchaser shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Purchasers subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the "UNDERSUBSCRIPTION AMOUNT"). (ii) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, a Purchaser must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the five (5) Business Day period of the Offer, setting forth the portion of the Purchaser's Basic Amount that such Purchaser elects to purchase and, if such Purchaser shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Purchaser elects to purchase (in either case, the "NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE"). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Purchasers are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Purchaser who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the "AVAILABLE UNDERSUBSCRIPTION AMOUNT"), each Purchaser who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase on that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Purchaser bears to the 17 total Basic Amounts of all Purchasers that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Board of Directors to the extent its deems reasonably necessary (iii) The Company shall have ten (10) Business Days from the expiration of the period set forth in Section 5(1)(2)(ii) above to issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Purchasers (the "REFUSED SECURITIES"), but only to the offerees described in the Offer (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer. (iv) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 5(1)(2)(iii) above), then each Purchaser may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that the Purchaser elected to purchase pursuant to Section 5(l)(2) (ii) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Purchasers pursuant to Section 5(1)(2) (ii) above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that any Purchaser so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Purchasers in accordance with Section 5(l)(2)(i) above. (v) Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, the Purchasers shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to the Purchasers, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 5(1)(2)(iv) above if the Purchasers have so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The purchase by the Purchasers of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and the Purchasers of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Purchasers and their respective counsel. (vi) Any Offered Securities not acquired by the Purchasers or other Persons in accordance with Section 5(1)(2)(iii) above may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to the Purchasers under the procedures specified in this Agreement. (vii) The restrictions contained in paragraphs 5(1)(1) and (2) of this Section shall not apply to any of the following "EXCLUDED SECURITIES:" (A) the Shares, (B) the Warrants, (C) the Additional Investment Rights, (D) the Additional Investment Right Warrants, (E) any warrants issued to any of the Placement Agents, (F) any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants, the Additional Investment Rights, the Additional Investment Right Warrants or any warrants issued to any of the Placement Agents or (G) any Common Stock issued (1) upon exercise or conversion of any options or other securities described in Schedule 4(c) (provided that such exercise or conversion occurs in accordance with the terms thereof, without amendment or modification, and that the applicable exercise or conversion price or ratio is described in such 18 schedule), (2) in connection with any grant of options, warrants or the issuance of additional securities to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company pursuant to a stock option plan or stock purchase plan duly adopted by the Company's board of directors or in respect of the issuance of Common Stock upon exercise of any such options or warrants, (C) pursuant to a bona fide firm commitment underwritten public offering through any investment banker (excluding any equity line) in an aggregate offering amount greater than $5,000,000, or (D) in connection with a bona fide joint venture or development agreement or strategic partnership or to an independent Person, the primary purpose of which is not to raise equity capital. m. Reimbursement. If any Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, partner, controlling Person, employee or agent of a Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (a "RELATED PERSON") becomes involved in any capacity in any Proceeding brought by or against any Person in connection with or as a result of any misrepresentation, breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company in any Transaction Documents, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless such Purchaser or Related Person for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the costs of any investigation, preparation and travel) and for any Losses incurred in connection therewith, as such expenses or Losses are incurred, excluding only Losses that result directly from such Purchaser's or Related Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The conduct of any Proceedings for which indemnification is available under this paragraph shall be governed by Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreements. The indemnification obligations of the Company under this paragraph shall be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Purchasers and any such Related Persons. The Company also agrees that neither the Purchasers nor any Related Persons shall have any liability to the Company or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Company in connection with or as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, except to the extent that any Losses incurred by the Company result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Purchaser or Related Person in connection with such transactions. If the Company breaches its obligations under any Transaction Document, then, in addition to any other liabilities the Company may have under any Transaction Document or applicable law, the Company shall pay or reimburse the Purchasers on demand for all costs of collection and enforcement (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company specifically agrees to reimburse the Purchasers on demand for all costs of enforcing the indemnification obligations in this paragraph. 6.

Determinations. All consents, approvals and other determinations to be made by the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement and all waivers and amendments to or of any provisions in this Agreement prior to the Closing Date to be binding upon a Purchaser shall be made by such Purchaser and except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all consents, approvals and other determinations to be made by the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement and all waivers and amendments to or of any provisions in this Agreement after the Closing Date shall be made by Purchasers that have invested more than fifty-one percent (51%) of the aggregate Investment Amounts invested by all Purchasers. n.iii Fees and Expenses.

The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees, stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the issuance of the Securities. o. Rescission and Withdrawal Right.

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. r. Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser hereunder or pursuant to the Warrants or any Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company by 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 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. s. Adjustments in Share Numbers and Prices. 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 any Transaction Document to a number of shares or a price per share shall be amended to appropriately account for such event. t. 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. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase Shares pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of the Subsidiary which may have been made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Purchaser (or any other Person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. 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. Each Purchaser acknowledges that no other Purchaser has acted as agent for such Purchaser in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no other Purchaser will be acting as agent of such Purchaser in connection with monitoring its investment hereunder. 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 25 be necessary for any other Purchasers to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS UNLESS OFFERED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNDER AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THOSE LAWS. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THESE SECURITIES AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES. Date: September 30, 2003 BAM! ENTERTAINMENT, INC. STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, ___________________, or its registered assigns, is entitled to purchase from BAM! ENTERTAINMENT, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "COMPANY"), at any time or from time to time during the period specified in Section 2 hereof, _______ fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's common stock, $0.001 par value (the "COMMON STOCK"), at an exercise price per share (the "EXERCISE PRICE") of $1.87. The number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder (the "WARRANT SHARES") and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4 hereof. The term "WARRANTS" means this Warrant and the other Warrants of the Company issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2003, by and among the Company and the other signatories thereto (the "SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT"). This Warrant is subject to the following terms, provisions and conditions: 1. (a) Manner of Exercise; Issuance of Certificates. Subject to the provisions hereof, including, without limitation, the limitations contained in Section 7 hereof, this Warrant may be exercised at any time during the Exercise Period (as defined below) by the holder hereof, in whole or in part, by delivery of a completed exercise agreement in the form attached hereto (the "EXERCISE AGREEMENT"), to the Company by 5 p.m. California time on any Business Day at the Company's principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof) and upon payment to the Company as provided in Section 1(b) below of the applicable Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Agreement. The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the holder hereof or such holder's designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and the completed Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered and payment shall have been made for such shares as set forth above or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day. The Warrant Shares so purchased, representing the aggregate number of shares specified in the Exercise Agreement, shall be delivered to the holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) Business Days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised (the "DELIVERY PERIOD"). If the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, and so long as the certificates therefor do not require a legend and the holder is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Shares so purchased to the holder by crediting the account of the holder or its nominee with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system ("DTC TRANSFER"). If the aforementioned conditions to a DTC Transfer are not satisfied, the Company shall deliver to the holder physical certificates representing the Warrant Shares so purchased. Further, the holder may instruct the Company to deliver to the holder physical certificates representing the Warrant Shares so purchased in lieu of delivering such shares by way of DTC Transfer. Any certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the holder hereof, shall be registered in the name of such holder or such other name as shall be designated by such holder and, following the date on which the Warrant Shares may be sold by the holder pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act (or a successor rule), shall not bear any restrictive legend. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the holder a new Warrant representing the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. (b) Payment of Exercise Price. The holder shall pay the Exercise Price in immediately available funds; provided, however, if the Registration Statement did not become effective on or before the Registration Deadline (as defined in that certain Common Stock Registration Rights Agreement of even date herewith between the Company and the Initial Investors set forth therein) and is not effective at the time holder exercises this Warrant, the holder hereof may satisfy its obligation to pay the Exercise Price through a "cashless exercise," in which event the Company shall issue to the holder hereof 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. 2 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 hereof, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. 2. Period of Exercise. Except as set forth in Section 7(g) and (h) below, this Warrant may be exercised at any time or from time to time (an "EXERCISE DATE") during the period (the "EXERCISE PERIOD") beginning on (a) the date hereof and ending (b) at 5:00 p.m., California time, on the fifth annual anniversary of the date of original issuance hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Exercise Period shall be extended for each day following the effective date that the that the holder hereof may not sell shares under the Registration Statement (as defined in the in that certain Warrant Share Registration Rights Agreement of even date herewith between the Company and the Initial Investors set forth therein) or pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act if the holder effected a "cashless exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section . 3. Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows: (a) Shares to be Fully Paid. All Warrant Shares will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances. (b) Reservation of Shares. During the Exercise Period, the Company shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise in full of this Warrant (without giving effect to the limitations on exercise set forth in Section 7(g) or 7(h) hereof). (c) Listing. The Company has secured the listing of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of or otherwise pursuant to this Warrant upon each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed or become listed (subject to official notice of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all shares of Common Stock from time to time issuable upon the exercise of or otherwise pursuant to this Warrant; and the Company shall so list on each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, as the case may be, and shall maintain such listing of, any other shares of 3 capital stock of the Company issuable upon the exercise of or otherwise pursuant to this Warrant if and so long as any shares of the same class shall be listed on such national securities exchange or automated quotation system. (d) Certain Actions Prohibited. The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. (e) Successors and Assigns. This Warrant will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation, or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets. (f) Blue Sky Laws. The Company shall, on or before the date of issuance of any Warrant Shares, take such actions as the Company shall reasonably determine are necessary to qualify the Warrant Shares for, or obtain exemption for the Warrant Shares for, sale to the holder of this Warrant upon the exercise hereof under applicable securities or "blue sky" laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the holder of this Warrant prior to such date; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. 4. Antidilution Provisions. During the Exercise Period, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 4. In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price as required herein results in a fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price shall be rounded up or down to the nearest cent; provided that, in no event shall the Exercise Price per share be reduced below $0.01. (a) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) its shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) its shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. 4 (b) Adjustment in Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4 other than a Company Reduction as defined in Section 4(k), the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased to equal the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the product of (A) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the adjusted Exercise Price . (c) Consolidation, Merger or Sale. In case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Company at any time during the Exercise Period, then as a condition of such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance, adequate provision will be made whereby the holder of this Warrant will have the right to acquire and receive upon exercise of this Warrant in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities, cash or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant had such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance not taken place. In any such case, the Company will make appropriate provision to insure that the provisions of this Section 4 will thereafter be applicable as nearly as may be in relation to any shares of stock or securities thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company will not effect any consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor entity (if other than the Company) assumes by written instrument the obligations under this Warrant and the obligations to deliver to the holder of this Warrant such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder may be entitled to acquire. If a transaction constitutes or results in a Change of Control, then at the request of the holder hereof delivered before the 90th day after such transaction, the Company (or any such successor or surviving entity) will purchase the Warrant from the holder of this Warrant for a purchase price, payable in cash within five Business Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of such transaction), equal to the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such request. For the purposes of this Section, "CHANGE OF CONTROL" means the consummation of a "Rule 13e-3 transaction" as defined in Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Company that is initiated or agreed to by a member of the Company's management. (d) Distribution of Assets. In case the Company shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (other than cash) (or rights to acquire its assets (other than cash)) to all holders of Common Stock as a partial liquidating dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Company's stockholders of shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary) (a "DISTRIBUTION"), at any time during the Exercise Period, then, upon exercise of this Warrant for the purchase of any or all of the shares of Common Stock subject hereto, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive its pro-rata amount of such assets (or such rights) as would have been payable to the holder had such holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to such Distribution. (e) Notice of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of any event which requires any adjustment of the Exercise Price other than a Company Reduction as defined in Section 4(k), then, and in each such case, the Company shall give notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant, 5 which notice shall state the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Such calculation shall be certified by the chief financial officer of the Company. (f) Minimum Adjustment of the Exercise Price. No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount of less than 1% of the Exercise Price in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise required to be made, but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to not less than 1% of such Exercise Price. (g) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fractional share which would otherwise be issuable in an amount equal to the same fraction of the closing bid price of a share of Common Stock on the Principal Market on the date of such exercise. (h) Other Notices. In case at any time: (i) the Company shall declare any dividend upon the Common Stock payable in shares of stock of any class or make any other distribution (other than dividends or distributions payable in cash out of retained earnings consistent with the Company's past practices with respect to declaring dividends and making distributions) to the holders of the Common Stock; (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of the Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (iii) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, or reclassification of the Common Stock, or consolidation or merger of the Company with or into, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation or entity; or (iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company; then, in each such case, the Company shall give to the holder of this Warrant (a) notice of the date or estimated date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive any such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up and (b) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, notice of the date (or, if not then known, a reasonable estimate thereof by the Company) when the same shall take place. Such notice shall also specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or to exchange their Common Stock for stock or other securities or property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation, or winding-up, as the case may be. Such notice shall be given at least fifteen (15) days prior to the record date or the date on which the Company's books are closed in respect thereto. Failure to give any such notice or any defect therein shall not affect 6 the validity of the proceedings referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may publicly disclose the substance of any notice delivered hereunder prior to delivery of such notice to the holder of this Warrant. (i) Certain Events. If, at any time during the Exercise Period, any event occurs of the type contemplated by the adjustment provisions of this Section 4 but not expressly provided for by such provisions, the Company will give notice of such event as provided in Section 4(e) hereof, and the Company's Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant so that the rights of the holder shall be neither enhanced nor diminished by such event. (j) Certain Definitions. (i) "BUSINESS DAY" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close. (ii) "COMMON STOCK," for purposes of this Section 4, includes the Common Stock and any additional class of stock of the Company having no preference as to dividends or distributions on liquidation, provided that the shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall include only Common Stock in respect of which this Warrant is exercisable, or shares resulting from any subdivision or combination of such Common Stock, or in the case of any reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale of the character referred to in Section 4(c) hereof, the stock or other securities or property provided for in such Section. (iii) "PRINCIPAL MARKET" means the Nasdaq Stock Market or, if the Common Stock is not traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market, then the principal securities exchange or trading market for the Common Stock. (k) Adjustment of Exercise Price by the Company. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company at any time shall have the right to reduce the Exercise Price (a "COMPANY REDUCTION") by any amount for any period of time; provided that the conditions of this Section 4(k) are satisfied. The Company may exercise its right to Company Reduction by delivering to each holder of the Warrants written notice (a "COMPANY REDUCTION NOTICE") at least 15 Business Days prior to the first day of the Company Reduction Period (as defined below). The Company Reduction Notice shall state the reduced Exercise Price (the "Alternative Exercise Price") and the period (the "Company Reduction Period") during which the Alternative Exercise Price will be in effect, which Company Reduction Period must be at least 15 Business Days in duration. A Company Reduction Notice shall be irrevocable. The Exercise Price shall be adjusted upon the expiration of the Company Reduction Period to the Exercise Price that otherwise would then be in effect if the Company Reduction had not occurred. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(k), the Alternative Exercise Price shall at no time be greater than the Exercise Price that otherwise would be in effect during such Company Reduction Period if such Company Reduction had not occurred. 5. Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder of this Warrant or such shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than the holder of this Warrant. 7 6. No Rights or Liabilities as a Stockholder. This Warrant shall not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative action by the holder hereof to purchase Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. 7. Transfer, Exchange, Redemption and Replacement of Warrant. (a) Restriction on Transfer. This Warrant and the rights granted to the holder hereof are transferable in whole or in part, at any one time, upon surrender of this Warrant, together with a properly executed assignment in the form attached hereto, at the office or agency of the Company referred to in Section 7(e) below, provided, however, that any transfer or assignment shall be subject to the conditions set forth in Sections 7(f), 7(g) 7(h) and 8 hereof and to the provisions of Sections 3(e) and 3(f) of the Securities Purchase Agreement. Until due presentment for registration of transfer on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder hereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the registration rights described in Section 8 hereof are assignable only in accordance with the provisions of the Warrant Shares Registration Rights Agreement. (b) Warrant Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the holder hereof at the office or agency of the Company referred to in Section 7(e) below, for new Warrants of like tenor of different denominations representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which may be purchased hereunder, each of such new Warrant to represent the right to purchase such number of shares as shall be designated by the holder hereof at the time of such surrender. (c) Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft, or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor. (d) Cancellation; Payment of Expenses. Upon the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer, exchange, or replacement as provided in this Section 7, this Warrant shall be promptly canceled by the Company. The Company shall pay all taxes (other than securities transfer taxes) and all other expenses (other than legal expenses, if any, incurred by the holder or transferees) and charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution, and delivery of Warrants pursuant to this Section 7. (e) Warrant 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 the holder hereof), a register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record the name and address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued, as well as the name and address of each transferee and each prior owner of this Warrant. (f) Exercise or Transfer Without Registration. If, at the time of the surrender of 8 this Warrant in connection with any exercise, transfer, or exchange of this Warrant, this Warrant (or, in the case of any exercise, the Warrant Shares issuable hereunder), shall not be registered under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such exercise, transfer, or exchange, (i) that the holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company and shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that such exercise, transfer, or exchange may be made without registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an "ACCREDITED INVESTOR" as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act; provided that no such opinion, letter, or status as an "accredited investor" shall be required in connection with a transfer pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. (g) Additional Restrictions on Exercise or Transfer. Notwithstanding anything in Section 1 or Section 3 hereof to the contrary, this Warrant shall not be exercisable to the extent (but only to the extent) that (a) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the holder of this Warrant and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unexercised portion of the Warrants or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on exercise or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein) and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (or portion thereof) with respect to which the determination described herein is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by such holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% (the "MAXIMUM PERCENTAGE") of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. To the extent the above limitation applies, the determination of whether and to what extent this Warrant shall be exercisable with respect to other securities owned by such holder shall be in the sole discretion of the holder and submission of this Warrant for full or partial exercise shall be deemed to be the holder's determination of whether and the extent to which this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to such aggregate percentage limitation. No prior inability to exercise the Warrants pursuant to this Section shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this Section with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (a) hereof. By written notice to the Company, the holder may waive the provisions of this Section or increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice, but (i) any such waiver or increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such waiver or increase or decrease will apply only to the holder and not to any other holder of Warrants. (h) Limitation on Number of Warrant Shares. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants if the issuance of such shares would exceed that number of shares which the Company may issue upon exercise of the Warrants (the "Exchange Cap") without breaching the Company's obligations under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of the Principal Market (or any successor rule or regulation) for issuances of Shares in excess of such amount. Until such approval is obtained, no 9 purchaser of the Warrants pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchasers") shall be issued, upon exercise of the Warrants, Shares in an amount greater than the product of (i) the Exchange Cap amount then in effect multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock issued to such Purchaser pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued to all Purchases pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Cap Allocation Amount"). In the event that any Purchaser shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Purchaser's Warrants, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Purchaser's Cap Allocation Amount. In the event that any holder of the Warrants shall convert and exercise, as the case may be, all of such holder's Warrants into a number of Shares which, in the aggregate, is less than such holder's Cap Allocation Amount, then the difference between such holder's Cap Allocation Amount and the number of Shares actually issued to such holder shall be allocated to the respective Cap Allocation Amounts of the remaining holders of Warrants on a pro rata basis in proportion to the number of Shares then issuable under the Warrants then held by each such holder. The restrictions contained in this Section 7(h) may not be amended without the consent of the holder of this Warrant and the holders of a majority of the Company's outstanding Common Stock (excluding the holder of this Warrant to the extent (and only to the extent) at the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote thereon, such holder holds any of the Company's Common Stock purchased pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement or upon exercise of the any Warrants sold thereunder). 8. Registration Rights. The initial holder of this Warrant (and certain assignees thereof) are entitled to the benefit of such registration rights in respect of the Warrant Shares as are set forth in the Warrant Shares Registration Rights Agreement, including the right to assign such rights to certain assignees, as set forth therein. 9. Notices. Any notices required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Warrant shall be sent by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested) or delivered personally or by courier or by confirmed telecopy, and shall be effective five days after being placed in the mail, if mailed, or upon receipt or refusal of receipt, if delivered personally or by courier, or by confirmed telecopy, in each case addressed to a party.

Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. The Company hereby waives all rights to a trial by jury. 11 11. Miscellaneous. (a) Amendments. Except as provided in Section 8(g) hereof, this Warrant and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the holder hereof. (b) Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of the several Sections of this Warrant are inserted for purposes of reference only, and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. (c) 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. (d) Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth on the first page hereof, this Warrant may be assigned by the holder. This Warrant may not be assigned by the Company. 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. (e) The Company will not, by amendment of its governing documents or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder hereof against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor on such exercise, (ii) will take all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant. (f) In addition to any other rights available to a holder hereof, if the Company fails to deliver to the holder hereof a certificate representing Warrant Shares by the fifth Business Day after the date on which delivery of such certificate is required by this Warrant, and if after such fifth Business Day the holder hereof purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the holder hereof of the Warrant Shares that the holder hereof anticipated receiving from the Company (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall, within three Business Days after the holder hereof requests and in the discretion of the holder hereof, either (i) pay cash to the holder hereof in an amount equal to the holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the "Buy-In Price"), at which point the Company's obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Common Stock) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the holder hereof a certificate or certificates representing such Common Stock and pay cash to the holder hereof in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In 12 Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the Closing Price on the date of the event giving rise to the Company's obligation to deliver such certificate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 11(f) shall not apply if the Company has used its best efforts to deliver the certificates, but such certificates were not delivered due to the Transfer Agent's failure to deliver the certificates in accordance with timely instructions from the Company. (g) 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 hereof 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 hereof or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the holder hereof or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the holder hereof in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit a right of the holder hereof 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 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

BAM! ENTERTAINMENT, INC. ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHT Additional Investment Right No. ___ Dated: September 30, 2003 Bam! Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"), hereby certifies that, for value received, ___________________ or its registered assigns (the "HOLDER"), is entitled to purchase from the Company (a) up to a total of _______ shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share (the "COMMON STOCK"), of the Company (each such share, an "ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHT SHARE" and all such shares, the "ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHT SHARES") at an exercise price equal to $0.96 per share (as adjusted from time to time as provided in Section 9, the "EXERCISE PRICE"), and (b) only as part of and in connection with the purchase of the Additional Investment Right Shares, warrants in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1 to purchase up to ______ shares of Common Stock (including any warrants issued in replacement thereof, the "ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHT WARRANTS"), at any time and from time to time from and after the date hereof and through and including the 45th Business Day following the effective date of the Registration Statement (the "EFFECTIVE DATE") (the "EXPIRATION DATE"), and subject to the following terms and conditions. This Additional Investment Right (this "ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHT") is one of a series of similar additional investment rights issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among the Company and the Purchasers identified therein (the "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"). All such additional investment rights are referred to herein, collectively, as the "ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHTS." Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Additional Investment Right Warrants shall be known herein as the "ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHT WARRANT SHARES". Concurrently with the issuance of Additional Investment Right Shares to the Holders further to the exercise of this Additional Investment Right, the Holder shall be issued Additional Investment Right Warrants exercisable for a number of Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares equal to 90% of the number of Additional Investment Right Shares so issued to the Holder upon such exercise. The term "Registration Statement" as used in this paragraph shall have the meaning set forth on the Common Stock Registration Rights Agreement between the Company and the Initial Investors therein of even date herewith. 1. Definitions. In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Additional Investment Right, capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Purchase Agreement. 2. Registration of Additional Investment Right. The Company shall register this Additional Investment Right, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the "ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHT REGISTER"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Additional Investment Right as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary. 3. Registration of Transfers. The Company shall register the assignment and transfer of any portion of this Additional Investment Right in the Additional Investment Right Register, upon surrender of this Additional Investment Right, with the Form of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the Transfer Agent or to the Company at its address specified herein. Upon any such registration or transfer, a new additional investment right to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Additional Investment Right (any such new additional investment right, a "NEW ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHT"), evidencing the portion of this Additional Investment Right so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Additional Investment Right evidencing the remaining portion of this Additional Investment Right not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New Additional Investment Right by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of an Additional Investment Right. 4. Exercise and Duration of Additional Investment Right. (a) This Additional Investment Right shall be exercisable by the registered Holder at any time and from time to time on or after the date hereof to and including the Expiration Date. At 6:30 P.M., New York City time on the Expiration Date, the portion of this Additional Investment Right not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value. (b) The Holder may exercise this Additional Investment Right by delivering to the Company (i) an exercise notice, in the form attached hereto (the "EXERCISE NOTICE"), appropriately completed and duly signed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants as to which this Additional Investment Right is being exercised (which may take the form of a "cashless 2 exercise" if so indicated in the Exercise Notice and if a "cashless exercise" may occur at such time pursuant to this Section 10 below), and the date such items are delivered to the Company (as determined in accordance with the notice provisions hereof) is an "EXERCISE DATE." The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Additional Investment Right in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Additional Investment Right and issuance of a New Additional Investment Right evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants. 5. Delivery of Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants. (a) Upon exercise of this Additional Investment Right, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than three Trading Days after the Exercise Date) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate for the Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants issuable upon such exercise, free of restrictive legends unless a registration statement covering the resale of the Additional Investment Right Shares or the Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares, respectively, and naming the Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder is not then effective and the Additional Investment Right Shares or the Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares, respectively, are not freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The Holder, or any Person so designated by the Holder to receive Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants, shall be deemed to have become holder of record of such Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants as of the Exercise Date. The Company shall, upon request of the Holder, use its best efforts to deliver Additional Investment Right Shares hereunder electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions. (b) This Additional Investment Right is exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for a portion of the number of Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants further to terms set forth in the first paragraph of the Additional Investment Right. Upon surrender of this Additional Investment Right following one or more partial exercises, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, at its expense, a New Additional Investment Right evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants. (c) In addition to any other rights available to a Holder, if the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate representing Additional Investment Right Shares on the date on which delivery of such certificate is required by this Additional Investment Right, such Holder may notify the Company via facsimile, mail or any other means, of its failure to deliver the certificate (a "DELIVERY FAILURE NOTICE"). If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate representing Additional Investment Right Shares by the fifth Business Day after delivery of the Delivery Failure Notice by the Holder and if after such fifth Business Day after the delivery of the Delivery Failure Notice 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 Additional Investment Right Shares that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a 3 "BUY-IN"), then the Company shall, within three Trading Days after the Holder's request and in the Holder's discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the "BUY-IN PRICE"), at which point the Company's obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Common Stock) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the Closing Price on the date of the event giving rise to the Company's obligation to deliver such certificate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 5(c) shall not apply if the Company has used its best efforts to deliver the certificates, but such certificates were not delivered due to the Transfer Agent's failure to deliver the certificates in accordance with timely instructions from the Company. (d) The Company's obligations to issue and deliver Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants 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 Additional Investment Right 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 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Additional Investment Right as required pursuant to the terms hereof. 6. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance and delivery of certificates for shares of Common Stock and the Additional Investment Right Warrants upon exercise of this Additional Investment Rights 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 Additional Investment Right Shares, Additional Investment Rights or any Additional Investment Right Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder or an Affiliate thereof. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Additional Investment Right or receiving Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrants upon exercise hereof. 7. Replacement of Additional Investment Right. If this Additional Investment Right 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 Additional Investment Right, a New Additional Investment Right, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. Applicants for a New Additional Investment Right 4 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. 8. Reservation of Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right 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 Additional Investment Right Shares upon exercise of this Additional Investment Right and Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Additional Investment Right Warrants as herein provided and as provided in the Additional Investment Right Warrants, the number of Additional Investment Right Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Additional Investment Right and the number of Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of any Additional Investment Right Warrants, 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 Additional Investment Right Shares and Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable exercise price in accordance with the terms hereof, or the Additional Investment Warrants, as the case may be, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable. The Company will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that such shares of Common Stock may be issued as provided herein and further to the Additional Investment Right Warrants without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Common Stock may be listed. 9. Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Additional Investment Right Shares issuable upon exercise of this Additional Investment Right are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9. The exercise price and number of Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Additional Investment Right Warrants shall be subject to adjustment further to Section 4 of said Additional Investment Right Warrants and the Additional Investment Right Warrants. (a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Additional Investment Right 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 multiplied 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 clauses (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. (b) Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Additional Investment Right is outstanding, distributes to holders of Common Stock (i) evidences of its indebtedness, (ii) any security (other than a distribution of Common Stock covered by the 5 preceding paragraph), (iii) rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, or (iv) any other asset (in each case, "DISTRIBUTED PROPERTY"), then in each such case the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution shall be adjusted (effective on such record date) to equal the product of such Exercise Price times a fraction of which the denominator shall be the average of the Closing Prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) such record date and of which the numerator shall be such average less the then fair market value of the Distributed Property distributed in respect of one outstanding share of Common Stock, as determined by the Company's independent certified public accountants that regularly examine the financial statements of the Company (an "APPRAISER"). In such event, the Holder, after receipt of the determination by the Appraiser, shall have the right to select an additional appraiser (which shall be a nationally recognized accounting firm), in which case such fair market value shall be deemed to equal the average of the values determined by each of the Appraiser and such appraiser. As an alternative to the foregoing adjustment to the Exercise Price, at the request of the Holder delivered before the 90th day after such record date, the Company will deliver to such Holder, within five Trading Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of such distribution), the Distributed Property that such Holder would have been entitled to receive in respect of the Additional Investment Right Shares for which this Additional Investment Right could have been exercised immediately prior to such record date. If such Distributed Property is not delivered to a Holder pursuant to the preceding sentence, then upon expiration of or any exercise of the Additional Investment Right that occurs after such record date, such Holder shall remain entitled to receive, in addition to the Additional Investment Right Shares otherwise issuable upon such exercise (if applicable), such Distributed Property. (c) Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Additional Investment Right is outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than as a result of a subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock covered by Section 9(a) above) (in any such case, a "FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION"), then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Additional Investment Right, 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 Additional Investment Right Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Additional Investment Right (the "ALTERNATE CONSIDERATION"). The aggregate Exercise Price for this Additional Investment Right will not be affected by any such Fundamental Transaction, but the Company shall apportion such aggregate 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 Additional Investment Right following such Fundamental Transaction. At the Holder's request, any 6 successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new additional investment right consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to purchase the Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof. 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 (c) and insuring that the Additional Investment Right (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction. If any Fundamental Transaction constitutes or results in a Change of Control (as defined below), then at the request of the Holder delivered before the 90th day after such Fundamental Transaction, the Company (or any such successor or surviving entity) will purchase the Additional Investment Right from the Holder for a purchase price, payable in cash within five Business 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 Additional Investment Right on the date of such request. For the purposes of this Section 9(c), "CHANGE OF CONTROL" means the consummation of a "Rule 13e-3 transaction" as defined in Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Company that is initiated or agreed to by a member of the Company's management. (d) Number of Additional Investment Right Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section, the number of Additional Investment Right Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Additional Investment Right shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the increased or decreased number of Additional Investment Right Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (e) 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. (f) 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 Additional Investment Right and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Additional Investment Right Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Additional Investment Right (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. (g) Notice of Corporate Events. If the Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in respect of its Common Stock, including, without limitation, any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary, (ii) authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction or (iii) 7 authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice describing the material terms and conditions of such transaction, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction, and the Company will take all steps reasonably necessary in order to insure that the Holder is given the practical opportunity to exercise this Additional Investment Right prior to such time so as to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice. 10. Payment of Exercise Price. The Holder shall pay the Exercise Price in immediately available funds; provided, however, if the Registration Statement did not become effective on or before Required Effectiveness Date and is not continuously effective through the Expiration Date, the Holder may satisfy its obligation to pay the Exercise Price through a "cashless exercise," in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Additional Investment Right Shares determined as follows: X = Y [(A-B)/A] where: X = the number of Additional Investment Right Shares to be issued to the Holder. Y = the number of Additional Investment Right Shares with respect to which this Additional Investment Right 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 Additional Investment Right Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Additional Investment Right Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Additional Investment Right was originally issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. 11. Limitation on Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by the Holder upon any exercise of this Additional Investment Right (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 4.999% (the "MAXIMUM PERCENTAGE") 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). 8 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. Each delivery of an Exercise Notice hereunder will constitute a representation by the Holder that it has evaluated the limitation set forth in this paragraph and determined that issuance of the full number of Additional Investment Right Shares requested in such Exercise Notice is permitted under this paragraph. The Company's obligation to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the limitation referred to in this Section shall be suspended (and shall not terminate or expire notwithstanding any contrary provisions hereof) until such time, if any, as such shares of Common Stock may be issued in compliance with such limitation. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may waive the provisions of this Section or increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice, but (i) any such waiver or increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such waiver or increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and not to any other holder of Additional Investment Rights. 12. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue or cause to be issued fractional Additional Investment Right Shares or Additional Investment Right Warrants to purchase fractional Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Additional Investment Right. If any fraction of a Additional Investment Right Share or if any Additional Investment Right Warrant to purchase a fraction of an Additional Investment Right Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section, be issuable upon exercise of this Additional Investment Right, the number of Additional Investment Right Shares and/or Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Additional Investment Right Warrants, as the case may be, to be issued will be rounded up to the nearest whole share or right to purchase the nearest whole share, as the case may be. 13. 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 on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section prior to 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (ii) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (iii) the Trading Day following the date of deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The address and facsimile numbers for such notices or communications shall be as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. 14. Additional Investment Right Agent. The Company shall serve as additional investment right agent under this Additional Investment Right. Upon 30 days' notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new additional investment right agent. Any corporation into which the Company or any new additional investment right agent may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the Company or any new additional investment right agent shall be a party or any corporation to which the Company or any new additional investment right agent transfers substantially all of its corporate trust or shareholders services business shall be a successor additional investment right agent under this Additional Investment Right without any further act. Any such successor additional investment right agent 9 shall promptly cause notice of its succession as additional investment right agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder's last address as shown on the Additional Investment Right Register. 15. Miscellaneous. (a) Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth on the first page hereof, this Additional Investment Right may be assigned by the Holder. This Additional Investment Right may not be assigned by the Company except to a successor in the event of a Fundamental Transaction. This Additional Investment Right 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 Additional Investment Right 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 Additional Investment Right. This Additional Investment Right may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder and their successors and assigns. (b) The Company will not, by amendment of its governing documents or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Additional Investment Right, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any Additional Investment Right Shares or Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor on such exercise, (ii) will take all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Additional Investment Right Shares or Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Additional Investment Right and the Additional Investment Right Warrants, respectively, and (iii) will not close its shareholder books or records in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this Additional Investment Right.

The Company and the Initial Investors have entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof (the "SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT;" capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement). In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained therein, to issue and sell to the Initial Investors shares of the Company's common stock, $0.001 par value (the "COMMON STOCK").

DEFINITIONS. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings: (i) "ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHTS" shall mean rights issued to Initial Investors' further to the Securities Purchase Agreement to purchase additional shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock (all as more fully described in Exhibit B to the Securities Purchase Agreement).

(iii) "REGISTER," "REGISTERED," and "REGISTRATION" refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a Registration Statement or Statements in compliance with the Securities Act and pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule providing for offering securities on a continuous basis ("RULE 415"), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such Registration Statement by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). (iv) "REGISTRABLE SECURITIES" means (i) the Shares, (ii) any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Additional Investment Rights (the "Additional Investment Right Shares") and (iii) any shares of capital stock issued or issuable, from time to time (with any adjustments), as a distribution on or in exchange for or otherwise with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the treatment of these securities as Registrable Securities shall terminate if and when such securities can be resold under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act and provided further however, that any shares of capital stock issued or issuable, from time to time (with any adjustments), in exchange for or otherwise with respect to any Shares or Additional Investment Right Shares shall not be considered Registrable Securities to the extent such shares of capital stock are covered by another, current and effective registration statement permitting the resale without restriction of such shares. (v) "REGISTRATION STATEMENT" means one or more registration statements of the Company under the Securities Act registering all of the Registrable Securities, including the Initial Registration Statement, any Uncovered Shares Amendments and Uncovered Shares Registration Statements (each, as defined below). 2. REGISTRATION. a. Mandatory Registration. The Company shall file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), on the date which is on or before forty-five (45) calendar days after the Closing Date (the "FILING DEADLINE") a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not then available, on such form of Registration Statement as is then available to effect a registration of all of the Registrable Securities) covering the resale of the Shares and any Additional Investment Right Shares issued upon exercise of the Additional Investment Rights (the "INITIAL REGISTRATION STATEMENT"). The Registrable Securities included in the Initial Registration Statement shall be registered on behalf of the Investors as set forth in Section 11(k) hereof. The Initial Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided to the Initial Investors and their counsel at least 5 Business Days prior to its filing or other submission. If for any reason (including, but not limited to, a determination by the staff of the SEC that all or any portion of the Registrable Securities cannot be included in the Initial Registration Statement (an "SEC Determination")) the Initial Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC does not include all of the Registrable Securities (any such shares that are not included being the "UNCOVERED SHARES"), the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, as soon as practicable, but in any event prior to the tenth (10th) Business Day after becoming aware of the existence of any Uncovered Shares (such date referred to herein as the "UNCOVERED SHARE FILING DEADLINE"), either (a) an amendment (the "UNCOVERED SHARES AMENDMENT") to the Initial Registration Statement effecting a registration of the Uncovered Shares or (b) a registration statement which 2 registers the Uncovered Shares (the "UNCOVERED SHARES REGISTRATION Statement"). The Uncovered Shares Amendment or the Uncovered Shares Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided to the Initial Investors and their counsel at least concurrently with its filing or other submission. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause each of the Initial Registration Statement and the Uncovered Shares Amendment or the Uncovered Shares Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof. b. Payments by the Company. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause each Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof to become effective as soon as practicable, but, as to the Initial Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a), in no event later than the one hundred and twentieth (120th) calendar day after the Closing Date (the "REGISTRATION DEADLINE"), and as to any Uncovered Shares Amendment or Uncovered Shares Registration Statement, in no event later than the ninetieth (90th) day after the Uncovered Share Filing Deadline (the "UNCOVERED SHARE REGISTRATION DEADLINE"). If the Registration Statement(s) covering the Registrable Securities required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof is not filed with the SEC by the Filing Deadline or the Uncovered Share Filing Deadline, as applicable, or declared effective by the SEC on or before the Registration Deadline or the Uncovered Share Registration Deadline, as applicable, or if, after a Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC, sales of all the Registrable Securities required to be included therein (except, in the case of the Initial Registration Statement, for Uncovered Shares which are the subject of an SEC Determination) cannot be made pursuant to the Registration Statement, then the Company will make payments to the Investors in such amounts and at such times as shall be determined pursuant to this Section 2(c) as partial relief for the damages to the Investors by reason of any such delay in or reduction of their ability to sell the Registrable Securities (which remedy shall be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity). c. The Company shall pay to each Investor an amount equal to (i) the Investment Amount (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) paid by such Investor pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (or if such Investor is not an Initial Investor, the Investment Amount paid by such Investor's transferor or assignor pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Aggregate Purchase Price"), multiplied by (ii) one percent (1%) (with respect to the period commencing on the Filing Deadline, the Uncovered Filing Deadline, the Registration Deadline or the Uncovered Share Registration Deadline, as applicable, multiplied by (iii) the sum of (x) the quotient calculated by dividing (A) the number of days after the Filing Deadline or Uncovered Share Filing Deadline, as applicable, and prior to the date the Registration Statement or Uncovered Share Amendment or Uncovered Share Registration Statement, as applicable, in each case as required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a), is filed with the SEC by (B) thirty, plus (y) the quotient calculated by dividing (A) the number of days after the Registration Deadline or Uncovered Share Registration Deadline, as applicable, and prior to the date the Registration Statement or Uncovered Share Amendment or Uncovered Share Registration Statement, as applicable, in each case as filed pursuant to Section 2(a), is declared effective by the SEC by (B) thirty, plus (z) the quotient calculated by dividing (A) the sum of the number of additional days that sales of any Registrable Securities required to be included in a Registration Statement (except, in the case of the Initial Registration Statement, for any 3 Uncovered Shares which are the subject of an SEC Determination) cannot be made pursuant to a Registration Statement after such Registration Statement has been declared effective; provided, however, however, that the total amount of payments pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall not exceed, when aggregated with all such payments paid to all Investors under the Securities Purchase Agreement $35,000. For example, if the Initial Registration Statement is filed within the Filing Deadline but becomes effective thirty (30) days after the Registration Deadline, the Company would pay $10,000 for each $1,000,000 of Aggregate Purchase Price. If the Company is unable to pay all amounts due and payable with respect to the penalties, the Company will pay the Investors such amounts pro rata based upon the total amounts payable to each Investor as a percentage of the total amounts payable to all Investors. d. Eligibility for Form S-3. The Company represents and warrants that it is eligible to register the resale of Registrable Securities on a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act, and that the Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances (including without limitation any required approvals or waivers or any circumstances that may delay or prevent the obtaining of accountant's consents) that would prohibit or delay the preparation and filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to the Registrable Securities provided that such registration is not deemed a "primary offering", in which case the Company could face potential qualification problems regarding the requirement of having an aggregate market value held by non-affiliates of $75 million or more. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to file all reports required to be filed by the Company with the SEC in a timely manner so as to maintain or, if applicable, regain its eligibility for the use of Form S-3. 3. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall have the following obligations: a. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, on or before the Filing Deadline or the Uncovered Share Filing Deadline, as applicable, the applicable Registration Statement required by Section 2(a) and shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing. The Company shall use its best efforts to keep such Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 for a period of 12 months from the date it became effective (the "REGISTRATION PERIOD"). In the event that the sale of Registrable Securities by one or more Investors is determined by the SEC to constitute a primary offering, upon the written request from time to time of any such Investor, the Company shall as promptly as practicable cause a Registration Statement to be amended and/or one or more additional Registration Statements (which may be requested on a sequential basis) to be filed (as specified by the applicable Investors) and to be declared effective; and take all other actions reasonably requested by such Investors to effectuate the offering of Registrable Securities. If the Initial Registration Statement is not filed on Form S-3, the Company shall, as soon as it is eligible to do so, file a post-effective amendment on Form S-3 to the Initial Registration Statement to the extent permitted by the SEC or, if not so permitted, file a new Registration Statement on Form S-3 to permit sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 429 under the Securities Act; and the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment or Registration Statement to become effective as soon as possible. 4 Each Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein and all documents incorporated by reference therein) filed pursuant to this Agreement (i) shall comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder and (ii) shall 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. The financial statements of the Company included in the Registration Statement or incorporated by reference therein will comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC applicable with respect thereto. Such financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and shall fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to immaterial year-end adjustments). b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company's obligations hereunder to file a Registration Statement, to have the same declared effective and to keep a registration statement continuously in effect under the Securities Act shall be suspended (a "Grace Period") if the fulfillment of such obligations would require the Company to make a disclosure that would, in the reasonable judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, have a Material Adverse Effect (as such term is defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) on the Company or a material adverse effect on the future prospects of the Company or its stockholders; provided, that the Registration Statement shall be suspended for a total of no more than ninety (90) days during any twelve (12) month period. The provisions of Section 2(b) hereof shall not be applicable during and shall be tolled as a result of any Grace Period. c. The Company shall furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the SEC, or received by the Company, one copy of the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, each preliminary prospectus and prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto. In the case of the Registration Statement referred to in Section 2(a), the Company shall furnish to each Investor which requests (i) a copy of any request to accelerate the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or amendment thereto, (ii) on the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, a notice stating that the Registration Statement or amendment has been declared effective, and (iii) such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as such Investor may reasonably request in order 5 to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor. In responding to comments from the staff of the SEC, the Company shall cooperate with any Investor that notifies the Company that it desires to be consulted with respect to such process. Such cooperation shall solely consist of providing any such Investor with: a reasonable opportunity to comment on the text and substance of proposed written responses to the extent such comment relates to such investor or its plan of distribution of the Registrable Securities. To the extent that issues raised by the staff of the SEC have an impact primarily on any such investor rather than the Company, the Company shall give reasonable deference to such Investor's requests with respect to the process and substance of responses with respect to such issues. d. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being offered reasonably requests, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (a) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d), (b) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, (c) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction, (d) provide any undertakings that cause the Company undue expense or burden, or (e) make any change in its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, which in each case the Board of Directors of the Company determines to be contrary to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. e. As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify each Investor by telephone or facsimile of the happening of any event, of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and use its reasonable efforts promptly to prepare a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission and deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment to each Investor as such Investor may reasonably request. f. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration Statement, and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest practicable date (including in each case by amending or supplementing such Registration Statement) and to notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof (and if such Registration Statement is supplemented or amended, deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment to each Investor as such Investor may reasonably request). 6 g. The Company shall make available for inspection by (i) any Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement and (ii) one firm of attorneys and one firm of accountants or other agents retained by the Investors (collectively, the "INSPECTORS") all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector to enable each Inspector to exercise its due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request for purposes of such due diligence. h. The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement, or (v) such Investor consents to the form and content of any such disclosure. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to such Investor prior to making such disclosure, and allow the Investor, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information. i. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to promptly either (i) secure the designation and quotation, of all the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement on The Nasdaq Stock Market, or (ii) cause all the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be listed on the NYSE or the AMEX or another national securities exchange and on each additional national securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange. j. The Company shall provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the Registration Statement. k. The Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Investors may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investors may request. l. At the request of an Initial Investor or Investors who holds a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement each as approved by the 7 Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, as may be necessary in order to change the plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement. m. The Company shall comply with applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations related to a Registration Statement and offering and sale of securities. n. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, and shall not agree to, allow the holders of any securities of the Company (except (i) to the extent existing agreements may otherwise provide or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock underlying the warrants to be issued to HDB as placement agent or its co-placement agents of the financing contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement) to include any of their securities in any Registration Statement under Section 2(a) hereof or any amendment or supplement thereto under Section 3(b) hereof without the consent of the holders of a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities. 4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTORS. In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Investors shall have the following obligations: a. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor (or to make any payments or other damages to such investor pursuant to Section 2(b)) that such Investor shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor of any information the Company requires from each such Investor. b. Each Investor, by such Investor's acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor's election to exclude all of such Investor's Registrable Securities from the Registration Statement. 5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. The Company shall pay (or reimburse the Purchasers for) all fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company, including without limitation (a) all registration and filing fees and expenses, including without limitation those related to filings with the Commission, any trading market and in connection with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws, (b) printing expenses (including without limitation expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses requested by the Purchasers), (c) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (d) fees and disbursements of 8 counsel for the Company and up to $5,000 in the aggregate for Proskauer Rose LLP, counsel to Vertical Ventures, LLC, (e) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (f) all listing fees to be paid by the Company to the trading market. 6.

Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 6(c) with respect to the number of legal counsel, the Company shall reimburse the Investors and each other Indemnified Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use in the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without an unconditional release of the Company and all of its controlling persons, employees and agents, or without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and (iii) with respect to any prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Person if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in such prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, if such corrected prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) 9 hereof, and the Indemnified Person was promptly advised in writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a Violation and such Indemnified Person, notwithstanding such advice, used it. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. b. In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, each such Investor agrees severally and not jointly to indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, its employees, agents, attorneys and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and any other stockholder selling securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or any of its directors or officers or any person who controls such stockholder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively and together with an Indemnified Person, an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), against any Claim to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim arises out of or is based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and subject to Section 6(c) such Investor will reimburse any reasonable legal or other expenses (promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable) reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without an unconditional release of such Investor and all of its controlling persons, employees and agents, or without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Agreement (including this Section 6(b) and Section 7) for only that amount as does not exceed the net proceeds actually received by such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact by the Investor contained in the preliminary prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, and the Indemnified Party failed to utilize such corrected prospectus. c. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that such indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume such defense and an Indemnified Person 10 or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding or the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party and any such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party reasonably determines that there may be legal defenses available to such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party which are in conflict with those available to such indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall pay for only one separate legal counsel for all Indemnified Persons or the Indemnified Parties, as applicable, and such legal counsel shall be selected by Investors holding a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement to which the Claim relates, if the Investors are entitled to indemnification hereunder, or by the Company, if the Company is entitled to indemnification hereunder, as applicable. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred and is due and payable. 7. CONTRIBUTION. To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that (i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6, (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any other person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation, and (iii) contribution (together with any indemnification or other obligations under this Agreement) by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities. 8. REPORTS UNDER THE EXCHANGE ACT. With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration ("RULE 144"), the Company agrees to: a. file with the SEC in a timely manner and make and keep available all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange 11 Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the Company's obligations under Section 5(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement) and the filing and availability of such reports and other documents as is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and b. furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration. 9. ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights of the Investors hereunder, including the right to have the Company register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, shall be assignable by each Investor to any transferee of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities if: (i) the Investor agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company after such assignment, (ii) the Company is furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned, (iii) following such transfer or assignment, the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, (iv) the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein, and (v) such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Securities Purchase Agreement. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Shares may be pledged, and all rights of the Investors under this Agreement or any other agreement or document related to the transaction contemplated hereby may be assigned, without further consent of the Company, to a bona fide pledgee in connection with an Investor's margin or brokerage accounts. 10.

DEFINITIONS. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings: (i) "ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RIGHTS" shall mean rights issued to the Initial Investors' further to the Securities Purchase Agreement to purchase additional shares of Common Stock and Warrants (all as more fully described in Exhibit B to the Securities Purchase Agreement). (ii) "INVESTORS" means the Initial Investors and any transferees or assignees who agree to become bound by the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9 hereof.

(v) "REGISTRATION STATEMENT" means one or more registration statements of the Company under the Securities Act registering all of the Registrable Securities, including the Initial Registration Statement, any Uncovered Shares Amendments and Uncovered Shares Registration Statements (each, as defined below). 2. REGISTRATION. a. Mandatory Registration. The Company shall file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), on the date which is on or before forty-five (45) calendar days after the Closing Date (the "FILING DEADLINE") a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not then available, on such form of Registration Statement as is then available to effect a registration of all of the Registrable Securities) covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and any Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of the Additional Investment Rights, which Registration Statement, to the extent allowable under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder shall state that such Registration Statement also covers such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock as may become issuable upon exercise of the Warrants to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions (the "INITIAL REGISTRATION STATEMENT"). The Registrable Securities included in the Initial Registration Statement shall be registered on behalf of the Investors as set forth in Section 11(k) hereof. The Initial Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided to the Initial Investors and their counsel at least two (2) Business Days prior to its filing or other submission. If for any reason (including, but not limited to, a determination by 2 the staff of the SEC that all or any portion of the Registrable Securities cannot be included in the Initial Registration Statement (an "SEC DETERMINATION")) the Initial Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC does not include all of the Registrable Securities (any such shares that are not included being the "UNCOVERED SHARES"), the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, as soon as practicable, but in any event prior to the tenth (10th) Business Day after becoming aware of the existence of any Uncovered Shares (such date referred to herein as the "UNCOVERED SHARE FILING DEADLINE"), either (a) an amendment (the "UNCOVERED SHARES AMENDMENT") to the Initial Registration Statement effecting a registration of the Uncovered Shares or (b) a registration statement which registers the Uncovered Shares (the "UNCOVERED SHARES REGISTRATION STATEMENT"). The Uncovered Shares Amendment or the Uncovered Shares Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided to the Initial Investors and their counsel at least concurrently with its filing or other submission. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause each of the Initial Registration Statement and the Uncovered Shares Amendment or the Uncovered Shares Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause each Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to this Section 2(a) to become effective as soon as practicable, but, as to the Initial Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2(a), in no event later than the one hundred and twentieth (120th) calendar day after the Closing Date, and as to any Uncovered Shares Amendment or Uncovered Shares Registration Statement, in no event later than the 60th day after the Uncovered Shares Filing Deadline. b. Eligibility for Form S-3. The Company represents and warrants that it is eligible to register the resale of Registrable Securities on a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act, and that the Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances (including without limitation any required approvals or waivers or any circumstances that may delay or prevent the obtaining of accountant's consents) that would prohibit or delay the preparation and filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to the Registrable Securities provided that such registration is not deemed a "primary offering", in which case the Company could face potential qualification problems regarding the requirement of having an aggregate market value held by non-affiliates of $75 million or more. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to file all reports required to be filed by the Company with the SEC in a timely manner so as to maintain or, if applicable, regain its eligibility for the use of Form S-3. 3. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall have the following obligations: a. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, on or before the Filing Deadline or the Uncovered Share Filing Deadline, as applicable, the applicable Registration Statement required by Section 2(a) and shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing. The Company shall use its best efforts to keep such Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 for a period of 12 months from the date it became effective (the "REGISTRATION PERIOD"). In the event that the sale of Registrable Securities by one or more Investors is determined by the SEC to constitute a 3 primary offering, upon the written request from time to time of any such Investor, the Company shall as promptly as practicable cause a Registration Statement to be amended and/or one or more additional Registration Statements (which may be requested on a sequential basis) to be filed (as specified by the applicable Investors) and to be declared effective; and take all other actions reasonably requested by such Investors to effectuate the offering of Registrable Securities. If the Initial Registration Statement is not filed on Form S-3, the Company shall, as soon as it is eligible to do so, file a post-effective amendment on Form S-3 to the Initial Registration Statement to the extent permitted by the SEC or, if not so permitted, file a new Registration Statement on Form S-3 to permit sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 429 under the Securities Act; and the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment or Registration Statement to become effective as soon as possible. Each Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein and all documents incorporated by reference therein) filed pursuant to this Agreement (i) shall comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder and (ii) shall 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. The financial statements of the Company included in the Registration Statement or incorporated by reference therein will comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC applicable with respect thereto. Such financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and shall fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to immaterial year-end adjustments). b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company's obligations hereunder to file a Registration Statement, to have the same declared effective and to keep a registration statement continuously in effect under the Securities Act shall be suspended (a "Grace Period") if the fulfillment of such obligations would require the Company to make a disclosure that would, in the reasonable judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, have a Material Adverse Effect (as such term is defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) on the Company or a material adverse effect on the future prospects of the Company or its stockholders; provided, that the Registration Statement shall be suspended for a total of no more than ninety (90) days during any twelve (12) month period. The provisions of Section 2(b) hereof shall not be applicable during and shall be tolled as a result of any Grace Period. 4 c. The Company shall furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the SEC, or received by the Company, one copy of the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, each preliminary prospectus and prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto. In the case of the Registration Statement referred to in Section 2(a), the Company shall furnish to each Investor which requests (i) a copy of any request to accelerate the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or amendment thereto, (ii) on the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, a notice stating that the Registration Statement or amendment has been declared effective, and (iii) such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as such Investor may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor. In responding to comments from the staff of the SEC, the Company shall cooperate with any Investor that notifies the Company that it desires to be consulted with respect to such process. Such cooperation shall solely consist of providing any such Investor with: a reasonable opportunity to comment on the text and substance of proposed written responses to the extent such comment relates to such investor or its plan of distribution of the Registrable Securities. To the extent that issues raised by the staff of the SEC have an impact primarily on any such investor rather than the Company, the Company shall give reasonable deference to such Investor's requests with respect to the process and substance of responses with respect to such issues. d. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being offered reasonably requests, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (a) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d), (b) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, (c) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction, (d) provide any undertakings that cause the Company undue expense or burden, or (e) make any change in its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, which in each case the Board of Directors of the Company determines to be contrary to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. e. As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify each Investor by telephone or facsimile of the happening of any event, of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and use its reasonable efforts promptly to prepare a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission and deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment to each Investor as such 5 Investor may reasonably request. f. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration Statement, and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest practicable date (including in each case by amending or supplementing such Registration Statement) and to notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof (and if such Registration Statement is supplemented or amended, deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment to each Investor as such Investor may reasonably request). g. The Company shall make available for inspection by (i) any Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement and (ii) one firm of attorneys and one firm of accountants or other agents retained by the Investors (collectively, the "INSPECTORS") all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector to enable each Inspector to exercise its due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request for purposes of such due diligence. h. The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement, or (v) such Investor consents to the form and content of any such disclosure. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to such Investor prior to making such disclosure, and allow the Investor, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information. i. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to promptly either (i) secure the designation and quotation, of all the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement on The Nasdaq Stock Market, or (ii) cause all the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be listed on the NYSE or the AMEX or another national securities exchange and on each additional national securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange. j. The Company shall provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the Registration Statement. 6 k. The Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Investors may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investors may request. l. At the request of an Initial Investor or Investors who holds a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement each as approved by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, as may be necessary in order to change the plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement. m. The Company shall comply with applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations related to a Registration Statement and offering and sale of securities. n. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, and shall not agree to, allow the holders of any securities of the Company (except (i) to the extent existing agreements may otherwise provide or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock underlying the warrants to be issued to HDB as placement agent or its co-placement agents of the financing contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement) to include any of their securities in any Registration Statement under Section 2(a) hereof or any amendment or supplement thereto under Section 3(b) hereof without the consent of the holders of a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities. 4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTORS. In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Investors shall have the following obligations: a. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor (or any damages to such Investor) that such Investor shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor of any information the Company requires from each such Investor. b. Each Investor, by such Investor's acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor's election to exclude all of such Investor's 7 Registrable Securities from the Registration Statement. 5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. The Company shall pay (or reimburse the Purchasers for) all fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company, including without limitation (a) all registration and filing fees and expenses, including without limitation those related to filings with the Commission, any trading market and in connection with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws, (b) printing expenses (including without limitation expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses requested by the Purchasers), (c) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (d) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (e) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (f) all listing fees to be paid by the Company to the trading market. 6.

Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 6(c) with respect to the number of legal counsel, the Company shall reimburse the Investors and each other Indemnified Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (i) shall not apply to a 8 Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use in the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without an unconditional release of the Company and all of its controlling persons, employees and agents, or without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and (iii) with respect to any prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Person if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in such prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, if such corrected prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof, and the Indemnified Person was promptly advised in writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a Violation and such Indemnified Person, notwithstanding such advice, used it. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. b. In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, each such Investor agrees severally and not jointly to indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, its employees, agents, attorneys and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and any other stockholder selling securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or any of its directors or officers or any person who controls such stockholder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively and together with an Indemnified Person, an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), against any Claim to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim arises out of or is based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and subject to Section 6(c) such Investor will reimburse any reasonable legal or other expenses (promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable) reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without an unconditional release of such Investor and all of its controlling persons, employees and agents, or without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Agreement (including this Section 6(b) and Section 7) for only that amount as does not exceed the net proceeds actually received by such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact by the Investor contained in the preliminary prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended 9 or supplemented, and the Indemnified Party failed to utilize such corrected prospectus. c. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that such indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume such defense and an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding or the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party and any such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party reasonably determines that there may be legal defenses available to such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party which are in conflict with those available to such indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall pay for only one separate legal counsel for all Indemnified Persons or the Indemnified Parties, as applicable, and such legal counsel shall be selected by Investors holding a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement to which the Claim relates, if the Investors are entitled to indemnification hereunder, or by the Company, if the Company is entitled to indemnification hereunder, as applicable. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred and is due and payable. 7. CONTRIBUTION. To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that (i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6, (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any other person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation, and (iii) contribution (together with any indemnification or other obligations under this Agreement) by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities. 10 8. REPORTS UNDER THE EXCHANGE ACT. With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration ("RULE 144"), the Company agrees to: a. file with the SEC in a timely manner and make and keep available all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the Company's obligations under Section 5(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement) and the filing and availability of such reports and other documents as is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and b. furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration. 9.

By: --------------------------------- Name: ------------------------------- Title: ------------------------------ RECEIPT ACKNOWLEDGED: American Stock Transfer & Trust Company By: --------------------------------- Name: ------------------------------- Title: ------------------------------ EXHIBIT E TO SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT Exhibit I [ACTUAL ISSUANCE SUBJECT TO APPROVAL OF K&L OPINION COMMITTEE] [Counsel's Letterhead] [Date] American Stock Transfer Trust Company 40 Wall Street New York, NY 10005 Attention: ____________ Re: BAM! Entertainment, Inc. -- Legend Removal relating to an aggregate of _________ shares of common stock and ________ shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of Warrants Ladies and Gentlemen: We have been requested by our client, BAM Entertainment, Inc. (the "Company"), to furnish our opinion to you concerning removal of the Legend referred to below on certificates evidencing up _______ shares (the "Shares") of common stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock"), of the Company and _______ shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Warrant Shares") that may be issued from time to time upon exercise of warrants (the "Warrants") held by the purchasers (such purchasers and their permitted assigns being hereinafter referred to as the "Purchasers") named in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated September __ 2003, by and between the Company and the Purchasers. We understand that the transfer of the Shares and the Warrant Shares is restricted on the Company's stock records, and each certificate for the Shares bear, and in the case of the Warrant Shares will bear, a legend (the "Legend") restricting such transfer, otherwise than pursuant to registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"). In connection with rendering the opinion set forth below, we have examined copies of the following documents (collectively, the "Supporting Documents"): (a) The Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-________) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on ________, 2003 relating to the Shares and Warrant Shares [and Amendments 1, ___ and ____ thereto filed _______, ______ and ______] (the "Registration Statement"); and (b) The Company's prospectus ("the Prospectus") dated _________ filed with the SEC on _________ pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") relating to the Shares and Warrant shares and which names each of Purchaser as a selling stockholder thereunder (a copy of which is enclosed herewith). We have been advised orally by a member of the staff of the SEC that the SEC has entered an order declaring the Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), on ___ __, 2003. We have no knowledge that any stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC. For the purposes of this opinion, we have made the assumptions that are customary in opinion letters of this kind, including the assumptions that each document submitted to us is accurate and complete, that each document that is an original is authentic, that each such document that is a copy conforms to an authentic original, that all signatures on each such document are genuine, and that no changes have occurred or will occur in the facts reflected in the Supporting Documents. We have assumed the legal capacity of the Purchasers and that the all Warrant Shares will be issued pursuant to the terms of the Warrants. We have not verified any of those assumptions. For the purposes of this opinion, we have also assumed that: 1. At the time of any sale of any of the Shares or Warrant Shares, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement will have been issued or any proceedings for that purpose will be pending before, or threatened by, the SEC; 2. Any sale of any of the Shares or Warrant does not occur during a Grace Period (as defined in Section 3(b)) of each of those certain Common Stock Registration Rights Agreement and Warrant Shares Registration Rights Agreement dated September __, 2003 between the Company and the Purchasers; and 3. The Purchasers sell the Shares and Warrant Shares in accordance with the "Plan of Distribution" set forth in the Prospectus and comply with the prospectus delivery requirements under Section 5(b)(2) of the Securities Act and, at the time any of the Purchasers request a removal of the Legend on any certificate evidencing all or any portion of the Shares or Warrant Shares or to transfer any of the same, it (or a broker acting on such Purchaser's behalf) provides to the Company (or to you on the Company's behalf), reasonable written assurances to the effect that any of the Shares or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, sold or to be sold by such Purchasers have been, or will be, sold in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth in the Prospectus and in compliance with the prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act. 4 Based solely on our review of the Supporting Documents and subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth below, it is our opinion a proposed transfer and sale of any of the Shares or Warrant Shares by the Purchasers, effected pursuant to the plan of distribution described in the Registration Statement and Prospectus and in compliance with the prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act, will be in conformity with the Securities Act inasmuch as such Shares will be sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement. Accordingly, the Legend on the certificates for the Shares and Warrant Shares and the restrictions on the Company's records concerning the transfer of the Shares and the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act may be removed. The foregoing opinion is limited to the registration provisions of the Securities Act and relates only to the Shares and the Warrant Shares. It does not address any other provision of law, any other securities, or any other aspect of the subject transaction. We are furnishing this opinion letter to you solely in connection with the above matter. You may not rely on this opinion letter in any other connection, and it may not be furnished to or relied upon by any other person for any purpose, without our specific prior written consent.

Subject to the accuracy of the Purchasers' representations in Section 3 of the Purchase Agreement and the Company's representations in Sections 4(p) and 4(q) of the Purchase Agreement and assuming that the activities of any of the Placement Agents, if imputed to the Company, would not violate such representations, it is not necessary to register the Shares, Warrants, Warrant Shares, Additional Investment Rights, Additional Investment Right Shares, Additional Investment Right Warrant and Additional Investment Right Warrant Shares under the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with the offer and issuance of such securities to the Purchasers under the circumstances contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. 5. Except for the notification of the Nasdaq National Market, the filing with the SEC of a Form D as required under Regulation D and the filing with the SEC of a registration statement as required by the Registration Rights Agreement and such blue sky filings as may be required (as to which we render no opinion), the execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents, and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, do not require the Company to obtain any approval by or make any filing with any governmental authority under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any statute, rule, or regulation of the State of California or the United States. 6. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents, the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby and the compliance by the Company with the terms thereof do not (a) violate or constitute a default under (i) the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-laws of the Company, or (ii) any agreement, note, lease, mortgage, deed or other instrument listed as an exhibit to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2003, or (b) result in any violation of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any applicable statute regulation of the State of California or the United States. 7.

ENTERTAINMENT, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "COMPANY"), and the parties set forth on the execution pages hereof (each of said parties a "PURCHASER"). All capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the meaning given to such terms in that Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of September 30, 2003, (the "Agreement"). WHEREAS: A. The Company and each Purchaser executed and delivered the Agreement whereby securities of the Company were issued in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by the provisions of Regulation D, as promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act. B. The Company and each Purchaser executed the First Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement to Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of October 27, 2003 whereby, the Company and each Purchaser mutually agree to amend Exhibit F to the Agreement so that approval by the Company's stockholders is not required. C. The Company seeks the continued involvement of each Purchaser after that period which is one year from the date of the Additional Blackout Period as that term is defined below. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals and the mutual agreements herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the Company and each Purchaser hereby agree as follows: (1) From the date which is one year from the date the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreements) is declared effective by the SEC until the one year anniversary thereof (the "ADDITIONAL BLOCKOUT PERIOD"), the Company will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition of) any of its or the Subsidiaries' equity or equity equivalent securities, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security that is, at any time during its life and under any circumstances, convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (any such offer, sale, grant, disposition or announcement being referred to as an "ADDITIONAL SUBSEQUENT PLACEMENT"), unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section (1). The restrictions contained in this Section (l) shall not apply to Excluded Stock (as defined in the Agreement). (i) The Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice (the "ADDITIONAL OFFER") of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange of the securities being offered (the "ADDITIONAL OFFERED SECURITIES") in a Additional Subsequent Placement, which Additional Offer shall (w) identify and describe the Additional Offered Securities, (x) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Additional Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (y) identify the Persons or entities (if known) to which or with which the Additional Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (z) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with each Purchaser the Offered Securities, based on the following percentages: Vertical Ventures LLC, 77.1% and Smithfield Fiduciary LLC, 22.9% (the "ADDITIONAL BASIC AMOUNT"), and with respect to each Purchaser that elects to purchase its Additional Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Additional Offered Securities attributable to the Additional Basic Amounts of other Purchasers as such Purchaser shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Purchasers subscribe for less than their Additional Basic Amounts (the "ADDITIONAL UNDERSUBSCRIPTION AMOUNT"). (ii) To accept an Additional Offer, in whole or in part, a Purchaser must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the three (3) Business Day period of the Offer, setting forth the portion of the Purchaser's Additional Basic Amount that such Purchaser elects to purchase and, if such Purchaser shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Purchaser elects to purchase (in either case, the "ADDITIONAL NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE"). If the Additional Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Purchasers are less than the total of all of the Additional Basic Amounts, then each Purchaser who has set forth an Additional Undersubscription Amount in its Additional Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Additional Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Additional Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Additional Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Additional Basic Amounts and the Additional Basic Amounts subscribed for (the "ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE UNDERSUBSCRIPTION AMOUNT"), each Purchaser who has subscribed for any Additional Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase on that portion of the Additional Available Undersubscription Amount as the Additional Basic Amount of such Purchaser bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Purchasers that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Board of Directors to the extent its deems reasonably necessary (iii) The Company shall have ten (10) Business Days from the expiration of the period set forth in Section (1)(ii) above to issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Additional Offered Securities as to which an Additional Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Purchasers (the "ADDITIONAL REFUSED SECURITIES"), but only to the offerees described in the Additional Offer (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Additional Offer. (iv) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Additional Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section (1)(iii) above), then each Purchaser may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Additional Offered Securities specified in its Additional Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Additional Offered Securities that the Purchaser elected to purchase pursuant to Section (1) (ii) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Additional Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Additional Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Purchasers pursuant to Section (1) (ii) above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the 2 Additional Offered Securities. In the event that any Purchaser so elects to reduce the number or amount of Additional Offered Securities specified in its Additional Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Additional Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Purchasers in accordance with Section (1)(i) above. (v) Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Additional Refused Securities, the Purchasers shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to the Purchasers, the number or amount of Additional Offered Securities specified in the Additional Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section (1)(iv) above if the Purchasers have so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Additional Offer. The purchase by the Purchasers of any Additional Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and the Purchasers of a purchase agreement relating to such Additional Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Purchasers and their respective counsel. (vi) Any Additional Offered Securities not acquired by the Purchasers or other Persons in accordance with Section (1)(iii) above may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to the Purchasers under the procedures specified in this Side Letter. (2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section (1) herein shall not apply to any Purchaser to the extent that the involvement of such Purchaser in any Additional Offer would cause said Additional Offer to be integrated with any prior offering of securities by the Company in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act or the approval by the Company's stockholders of the sale of the Additional Offered Securities under applicable rules and regulations of NASDAQ. [REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK] 3 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Purchasers and the Company have caused this Side Letter to be duly executed as of the date first above written.
