Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction).

Each Company Party acknowledges and agrees that the representations and warranties of each Purchaser set forth in Section 3.2 shall not modify, amend or affect any Purchaser’s right to rely on the representations and warranties of any Company Party contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this Agreement or the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE IV          OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1           Transfer Restrictions.

- 25 -

(a)            The Transaction Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Transaction Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, at the Company’s sole expense in the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Transaction Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser under this Agreement.

(b)            Each Purchaser agrees, severally but not jointly, to the imprinting, for as long as is required by this Section 4.1, of a legend on all of the Purchased Securities in the following form:

[THIS SECURITY HAS NOT] [NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY [CONVERTIBLE] HAVE] BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES REGULATIONS, AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE OR PLEDGED AS SECURITY IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION WITHOUT RELIANCE ON AN EXEMPTION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES REGULATIONS. THIS SECURITY [AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON [CONVERSION] OF THIS SECURITY] MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN FROM AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of its Transaction Securities to a financial institution that is a sophisticated investor and an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Transaction Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the Company’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Transaction Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Transaction Securities.

(c)            No certificate evidencing any Transaction Security shall contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b)) in the following cases: (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such Transaction Security is effective under the Securities Act; (ii) following any sale of such Transaction Security pursuant to Rule 144; (iii) if such Transaction Security is eligible for sale under Rule 144; or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). The Company shall upon request of any Purchaser and at the Company’s sole expense cause its counsel (or at such Purchaser’s option, exercised in its sole discretion, counsel selected by such Purchaser) to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after any of the events described in (i)-(iv) in the preceding sentence to effect the removal of any legend (including that described in Section 4.1(b)), with a copy to such Purchaser, its broker and the Collateral Agent. If all or any portion of any Purchased Security is converted or exercised, respectively, at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Issuable Securities, or if any Transaction Security may be sold under Rule 144 or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) then such Issuable Security or Transaction Security shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than two (2) Trading Days following the delivery by any Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing a Transaction Security issued with a restrictive legend (such second (2^nd) Trading Day being referred to as the “Legend Removal Date” of such Transaction Securities of such Purchaser), instruct the Transfer Agent to deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent

- 26 -

that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.1. Certificates for the Transaction Securities subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to such Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by such Purchaser.

(d)            In addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to such Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, $1,000 per Trading Day for each Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date for such Transaction Securities of such Purchaser until such certificate is delivered without a legend. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing any Transaction Securities as required by the Transaction Documents, and each Purchaser shall have, severally and not jointly, the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

4.2           No Claims Under Stockholder’s Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by any Company Party or, with the consent of any Company Party, by any other Person, that Purchaser is an “acquiring person” (or similar or equivalent term) under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Transaction Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and Purchaser.

4.3           Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Transaction Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including its obligation to issue the Transaction Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company may have against any Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company.

4.4          Integration. The Company shall not engage in any Sale, offer for Sale or engage in any solicitation of offers to buy, any Security (or otherwise negotiate in respect of any of the foregoing) that would be integrated with (i) the offer or sale of the Transaction Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Transaction Securities or (ii) the offer or sale of the Transaction Securities for purposes of the Regulations of any Trading Market of any Securities of any Company Party in a manner that would require shareholder approval prior to the closing thereof, unless such shareholder approval is obtained before such closing.

4.5          Conversion Procedures. The form of “Notice of Conversion” (each a “Notice of Conversion”) included in any Note of any Purchaser sets forth the totality of the procedures required of such Purchaser in order to convert such Note. Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be required in order to convert any Note. No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required of any Purchaser to convert any Note. The Company shall honor conversions of any Note, and shall deliver Transaction Securities in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.

4.6          Reservation and Listing.

(a)            The Company shall reserve for issuance of the Issuable Securities from its duly authorized Capital Stock a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to the higher of the Reserve Amount or such amount as may then be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents. Upon a reverse stock split or increase in the authorized Common Stock of the Company, the Company will immediately instruct the Transfer Agent to reserve at least the new Reserve Amount after giving effect to such stock split or increase. The Company shall update the Reserve Amount with the Transfer Agent at least monthly.

(b)            If, on any date, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than the Reserve Amount on such date, then the Board of Directors shall amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (or equivalent governing document) to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares

- 27 -

of Common Stock to the Reserve Amount at such time, as soon as possible and in any event not later than the 60^th day after such date.

(c)            The Company shall, if applicable: (i) in the time and manner required by the Principal Trading Market for the Common Stock, prepare and file with such Principal Trading Market an additional shares listing application covering a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to the Reserve Amount on the date of such application; (ii) take all steps necessary to cause such shares of Common Stock to be approved for listing or quotation on such Principal Trading Market as soon as possible thereafter; (iii) provide to each Purchaser evidence of such listing or quotation; and (iv) maintain the listing or quotation of such Common Stock on any date at least equal to the Reserve Amount on such date on such Principal Trading Market or any other Trading Market for such Common Stock.

4.7            Right of First Refusal.

(a)            Prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, upon any Company Party entering into any Equity Line of Credit or the issuance of any Common Stock in connection with an Equity Line of Credit (a “Subsequent Financing”), each Purchaser shall have the right to participate up to its Pro Rata Portion (measured against all Purchasers) of 100% of such Equity Line of Credit or such issuance (the “Participation Maximum”) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing.

(b)            At least three (3) Trading Days prior to the closing of a Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall ask such Purchaser if it wants to review the details of such financing (each additional notice containing such details, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Upon the request of any Purchaser for a Subsequent Financing Notice, and only upon such a request, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to such Purchaser. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected, the Pro Rata Portion of the Participation Maximum of such Purchaser, an inquiry as to whether such Purchaser is willing to participate above their Pro Rata Portion (and what is the maximum amount such Purchaser is willing to commit), and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.

(c)            If any Purchaser desires to participate in such Subsequent Financing, such Purchaser must provide written notice to the Company within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of the Subsequent Financing Notice that such Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the maximum amount for which such Purchaser would be willing to participate if it is allocated to it (up to the Participation Maximum), and representing and warranting that the Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.

(d)            At first, each Purchaser shall first have the right to purchase its Pro Rata Portion (measured against all Purchasers) of the Participation Maximum. If some Purchasers have declined to participate in such Subsequent Financing, and some portion of the Participation Maximum remains unallocated, each Purchaser having agreed to participate above its current allocation shall be allocated its Pro Rata Portion (measured against all Purchaser having so agreed) of the next dollar – and so on and so forth until the Participation Maximum shall be fully allocated or all Purchasers shall have been given their desired allocation in full.

(e)            The transaction documents related to any Subsequent Financing applicable to any Purchaser participating in such Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision whereby such Purchaser shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any of the Transaction Securities. In addition, the transaction documents related to the Subsequent Financing shall not include any requirement to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or other modification or the like under or in connection with, this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the number of Purchasers required hereunder to consent to this amendment, termination, waiver, consent, release or other modification.

(f)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.7 and unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Purchaser, the Company shall either confirm in writing to each Purchaser that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the securities in the

- 28 -

Subsequent Financing, in either case in such a manner such that each Purchaser will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the fifth (5^h) Trading Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such fifth (5^th) Trading Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by the Purchaser, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the Purchaser shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(g)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.7 shall not apply in respect of an “Exempt Issuance” or to any issuance of “Permitted Debt” (each as defined under any of the Notes).

4.8            Furnishing of Information; Public Disclosure.

(a)            The Company covenants to maintain the registration of the Common Stock under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

(b)            At any time during the period commencing from the six (6)-month anniversary of the date hereof and ending at such time that all of the Transaction Securities have been sold or may be sold by the Purchasers without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to any Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to each Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell its Transaction Securities, an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate Subscription Amount of such Purchaser’s Purchased Securities on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30^th) day (pro-rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no longer required for such Purchaser to transfer pursuant to Rule 144 any Transaction Securities. The payments to which such Purchaser shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4.8(b) are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.” Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3^rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments when required by the preceding sentence, such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of two percent (2.0%) per month (accruing and due daily and prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Nothing herein shall limit each Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure, and each Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief and recovery of loss profits.

(c)            The Company will immediately notify the Collateral Agent and each Purchaser in writing of (i) any Disqualification Event relating to any Company Covered Person and (ii) any event that, with the passage of time, would become such a Disqualification Event.

4.9            Securities Laws Disclosures.

(a)            Disclosure of Transaction Documents. The Company shall file with the Commission a current report on Form 8-K that includes the Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto within the time required by the Exchange Act. The Company represents and warrants to, and agree with, each Purchaser Party that, from and after such disclosure, it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to any Purchaser Party or their Related Parties (or their respective agents, contractors, trustees, representatives and advisors) by any Company Party (including through agents, contractors, trustees, representatives and advisors) in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. From and after such disclosure, to the extent any Transaction Document (including any notice provided thereunder) could be argued to include any material non-public information, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days disclose such Transaction Document on Form 8-K. From and after such disclosure, the Company represents and warrants to each Purchaser Party that it shall have publicly disclosed (and shall ensure that as part of such disclosure and thereafter it shall publicly disclose within two (2) Trading Days) all material, non-public information delivered to any Purchaser Party or any of their Related Parties (or their respective

- 29 -

agents, contractors, trustees, representatives and advisors) by any Company Party or any of their Affiliates or any of their respective Related Parties (or their respective agents, contractors, trustees, representatives and advisors), in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. In addition, effective upon such disclosure, any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any Contractual Obligation, whether written or oral, between any Company Party, any of their Affiliates or any of their respective Related Parties (or their respective agents, contractors, trustees, representatives and advisors), on the one hand, and any Purchaser Party or any of their Related Parties (or their respective agents, contractors, trustees, representatives and advisors), on the other hand, shall immediately terminate and, from and after such disclosure, no such obligations shall be valid, even if entered into after the date of this Agreement (unless such obligation specifically mentions and refers to this clause (a) as inapplicable in a writing signed by such Purchaser Party), including “click through” agreements and confidentiality clauses incorporated in larger agreements.

(b)           Financing Statements and Other Periodic Filings. The Company shall timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act and the Company shall meet the current public information requirements of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act as of the end of the period in question.

(c)            Private Transaction. This is a private transaction negotiated with, and tailored to, each Purchaser and no Securities were offered or sold to any Purchaser by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising. This transaction does not rely on Regulation D (and, therefore, the Company does not intend or need to file a Form D).

4.10        Custodians; Freely Tradeable and Trading Markets Listing.

(a)            DWAC. The Company shall ensure that its shares of Common Stock are and remain eligible for the “Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian” (DWAC) service of the Deposit Trust Corporation and not subject to any restriction or limitation imposed by or on behalf of the Deposit Trust Corporation on any of its services or any other restriction or limitation on the use of the services provided by the Deposit Trust Corporation (DTC chill).

(b)            Freely Tradeable. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall ensure that all Transaction Securities are freely tradeable. For the purposes of this Section 4.10(b), such shares shall be deemed “freely tradeable” if such shares are eligible for resale pursuant to (i) Rule 144 (provided the Company is compliant with its current public information requirements) promulgated by the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or such shares are the subject of a then effective registration statement or (ii) an effective “shelf” or resale registration statement under the Securities Act, in customary form, is effective under the Securities Act, registering the resale of such Transaction Securities by such security holder and names such holder as a selling security holder thereunder, and such registration statement is reasonably acceptable such holder.

(c)            Trading Markets. The shares of Common Stock are trading, and the Company believes in good faith that they shall continue to trade uninterrupted, on the Principal Trading Market and all other Trading Markets for such Common Stock (subject to any volume restrictions set forth in the Notes). All of the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to the Transaction Documents (including the Commitment Shares and the Issuable Securities) are listed or quoted for trading, and the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that such shares continue to be listed or quoted for trading interrupted, on the Principal Trading Market and each such other Trading Market.

4.11        Trading Activities of Purchasers.

(a)            Prohibited Short Sales. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any of its Affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it, will execute any of the following (a “Prohibited Short Sale”): (i) any Short Sales of the Common Stock or (ii) any hedging transaction that establishes a net short position with respect to the Company’s Common Stock, in each case during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending on the earlier of the earliest “Maturity Date” of such Purchaser’s Notes or the full repayment or conversion of all “Obligations” under such Purchaser’s Notes (each under and as defined in such Notes); provided, that this provision shall not prohibit any sales made where a corresponding Notice of Conversion is tendered to the Company and the shares received upon such conversion are used to close out

- 30 -

such sale; provided, further, that this provision shall not operate to restrict any Purchaser’s trading under any prior securities purchase agreement containing contractual rights that explicitly protects such trading in respect of the previously issued securities.

(b)            Acknowledgment Regarding Purchasers’ Other Trading Activities. Anything in this Agreement or elsewhere herein to the contrary notwithstanding (except for this Section 4.11), it is understood and acknowledged by the Company that (i) no Purchaser has been asked by the Company to agree, nor has any Purchaser agreed, to desist from purchasing or selling Transaction Securities of the Company or from entering into Short Sales or Derivatives based on securities issued by the Company or to hold the Transaction Securities for any specified term, (ii) past or future open market or other transactions by any Purchaser, specifically including Short Sales or Derivatives, before or after any Closing, as well as the closing of any future private placement transactions, may negatively impact the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities, (iii) each Purchaser, and counter-parties in Derivatives to which any Purchaser is a party, directly or indirectly, may presently have a “short” position in the shares of Common Stock and (iv) no Purchaser shall be deemed to have any affiliation with or control over any arm’s length counter-party in any Derivative. The Company further understands and acknowledges that (y) each Purchaser may engage in hedging activities at various times during the period that the Transaction Securities are outstanding, including, during the periods that the value of the Issuable Securities deliverable with respect to Transaction Securities are being determined, and (z) such hedging activities (if any) could reduce the value of the existing stockholders' equity interests in the Company at and after the time that the hedging activities are being conducted. The Company acknowledges that such aforementioned hedging activities and Derivatives do not constitute a breach of any of the Transaction Documents.

4.12        Material Non-Public Information. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, each Company Party covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any other Person acting on its behalf, will provide any Purchaser, any Purchaser Party or their respective agents or counsel with any information that any Company Party believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such information is disclosed to the public, or such Purchaser shall have entered into a written agreement with the Company regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. Except for the Business Combination and the Asset Sale, there has been no public announcement of a pending or proposed Fundamental Transaction or Change of Control (as each such term is defined in the Notes) that has not been consummated. No Purchaser has been provided by any Company Party or any Related Party of any Company Party any information, that constitutes, or may constitute, material non-public information with respect to any Company Party. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing representations, warranties and covenants in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

4.13         Credit Reports and Inquiries.

(a)            Credit Reports. Each Company Party authorizes the Purchaser Parties, their agents and representatives and any credit reporting agency engaged by any Purchaser Party, to (i) investigate any references given or any other statements or data obtained from or about the Company Parties for the purpose of the Transaction Documents, (ii) obtain consumer business credit reports on the Company Parties, (iii) contact personal and business references provided by any Company Parties, at any time now or for so long as any amounts remains unpaid under the Transaction Documents, and (iv) share information regarding the Company Parties’ performance under this Agreement with affiliates and unaffiliated third parties.

(b)            Credit Inquiries. Each Company Party hereby authorizes the Purchasers (but they shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Company Party.

4.14         Indemnification of Each Purchaser Party. Each Company Party shall, jointly and severally, indemnify against, and hold harmless from, each Purchaser, the Collateral Agent, their Related Parties, each Person who controls any of them (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and their agents, contractors, trustees, representatives and advisors (each, a “Purchaser Party”) any and all Losses that any Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) the administration, performance or enforcement by the Purchasers of any of the Transaction Documents or consummation of any transaction described therein, (b) the existence of, perfection of, a Lien upon or the sale or collection of, or any other damage, Loss, failure to return or other realization upon any collateral, (c) the failure of any Company Party or any of their Related Parties (whether directly or through their agents, contractors, trustees, representatives and advisors) to observe, perform or discharge

- 31 -

any of the covenants or duties under any of the Transaction Documents, (d) any Proceeding, whether or not any Purchaser Party is a party thereto (including Proceedings instituted by any Governmental Authority or any holder of any equity interest in, or other direct or indirect investor in, the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party) with respect to any of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated therein. Additionally, if any Taxes (excluding Taxes imposed upon or measured solely by the net income of the recipient of any payment made under any Transaction Document, but including any intangibles tax, stamp tax, recording tax or franchise tax) shall be imposed on any Company Party or Purchaser Party, whether or not lawfully payable, on account of the execution or delivery of this Agreement, or the execution, delivery, issuance or recording of any of the other Transaction Documents, or the creation or repayment of any of obligations hereunder, by reason of any applicable Regulations now or hereafter in effect, each Company Party shall, jointly and severally, pay (or shall promptly reimburse such Purchaser Party for the payment of) all such Taxes, including any interest, penalties, expenses and other Losses with respect thereto), and will indemnify and hold the Purchaser Parties harmless from and against all Losses arising therefrom or in connection therewith. The foregoing indemnities shall not apply to Losses incurred by any Purchaser Party as a result of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Transaction Document, the obligations of the Company Parties with respect to each indemnity given by them in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents in favor of the Purchaser Parties shall survive the payment in full of the Notes and the termination of this Agreement. The indemnification required by this Section 4.14 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The indemnification contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against any Company Party or others and any liabilities any Company Party may be subject to pursuant to any Regulation.

ARTICLE V          COLLATERAL AGENT

5.1            Appointment. Each Purchaser hereby irrevocably appoints ________________, to act on its behalf as the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this ARTICLE V are solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers, and no Company Party will have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Transaction Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Regulation. Instead, such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

5.2            Rights as a Purchaser. The Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder has the same rights and powers in its capacity as an Initial Purchaser, Additional Purchaser and Purchaser as any other Initial Purchaser, Additional Purchaser and Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not the Collateral Agent, and the terms “Initial Purchaser”, “Initial Purchasers,” “Purchaser” or “Purchasers” will, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity to the extent such Person is an Initial Purchaser or, as the case may be, Purchaser. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept payments from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Company, any Company Party or any other Subsidiaries or Affiliates of the Company as if such Person were not the Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Purchasers.

5.3            Exculpatory Provisions.

(a)            The Collateral Agent will not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Transaction Documents, and its duties hereunder are administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent:

(i)            will not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

- 32 -

(ii)            will not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Transaction Documents that the Collateral Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Purchasers (or such other number or percentage of the Purchasers as will be expressly provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents); provided, that the Collateral Agent will not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Collateral Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Transaction Document or any applicable Regulations, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any bankruptcy or insolvency Proceeding; and

(iii)            will not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Transaction Documents, have any duty to disclose, and will not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company Parties or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b)            The Collateral Agent will not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Purchasers (or such other number or percentage of the Purchasers as will be necessary, or as the Collateral Agent believes in good faith will be necessary, under the circumstances), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Collateral Agent will be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Collateral Agent in writing by a Company Party or a Purchaser.

(c)            The Collateral Agent will not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent.

5.4            Reliance by Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent will be entitled to rely upon, and will not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Collateral Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and will not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder that by its terms must be fulfilled to its satisfaction, the Collateral Agent may make such determination in its sole discretion, and in determining compliance with any condition hereunder that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Purchaser, the Collateral Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Purchaser unless the Collateral Agent has received notice to the contrary from such Purchaser prior to the issuance of the Notes. The Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Company Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and will not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

5.5            Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Transaction Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Section will apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent, and will apply to their respective activities in connection with the purchase of the Securities as well as other activities as Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent will not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Collateral Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

5.6            Resignation of Collateral Agent.

- 33 -

(a)            The Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Purchasers and the Company, which notice shall set forth the effective date of such resignation (the “Resignation Effective Date”), such date not to be earlier than the thirtieth (30th) day following the date of such notice. The Required Purchasers and the Company shall mutually agree upon a successor to the Collateral Agent. If the Required Purchasers and the Company are unable to so mutually agree and no successor shall have been appointed within twenty-five (25) days after the retiring Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Collateral Agent may (but will not be obligated to), on behalf of the Purchasers, appoint a successor Collateral Agent it shall designate (in its reasonable discretion after consultation with the Company and the Required Purchasers). Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation will become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b)            With effect from the Resignation Effective Date (i) the retiring Collateral Agent will be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Purchasers under any of the Transaction Documents, the retiring Collateral Agent will continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed), and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Collateral Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Collateral Agent will instead be made by or to each Purchaser directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Purchasers appoint a successor Collateral Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor will succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Collateral Agent), and the retiring Collateral Agent will be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents. The fees payable by the Company to a successor Collateral Agent will be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, the provisions of this Article VI will continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Collateral Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Collateral Agent was acting as Collateral Agent.

5.7            Non-Reliance on Collateral Agent and Other Purchasers. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Purchaser or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Purchaser also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Purchaser or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it will from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

5.8            Collateral Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any bankruptcy or insolvency Proceeding or any other judicial Proceeding relative to any Company Party, the Collateral Agent (irrespective of whether the principal amount of the Notes will then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent has made any demand on the Company) will be entitled and empowered (but not obligated), by intervention in such judicial Proceeding or otherwise:

(a)            to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and all other obligations that are owing and unpaid hereunder or under any other Transaction Document and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Purchasers and the Collateral Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Purchasers and the Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Purchasers and the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document) allowed in such judicial Proceeding; and

(b)            to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same.

Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial Proceeding is hereby authorized by each Purchaser to make any payments of the type described above in this Section 5.8 to the Collateral Agent and, in the event that the Collateral Agent consents to the making of such payments directly to the Purchasers, to pay to the Collateral Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses,

- 34 -

disbursements and advances of the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

5.9            Indemnification. Each Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent and each of its Related Parties (to the extent not reimbursed by the Company), from and against such Purchaser’s aggregate ratable share (based on the principal amount of the Notes held by the Purchasers) of any and all Losses that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Collateral Agent or any of its Related Parties in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; provided, that no Purchaser shall be liable for any portion of such Losses resulting from the Collateral Agent’s or such Related Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing, each Purchaser agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent and its Related Parties promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, Proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, to the extent that the Collateral Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Company or another Company Party.

5.10         Collateral Matters; Appointment of Collateral Agent under other Transaction Documents.

(a)            Without limiting the provisions of Section 5.8, the Purchasers irrevocably agree as follows:

(i)            the Collateral Agent is authorized, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Transaction Document (A) on the date when all obligations have been satisfied in full in cash (other than contingent obligations as to which no claims have been asserted), (B) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted under the Transaction Documents, and

(ii)            upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, each Purchaser will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Collateral.

(b)            The Collateral Agent will not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Company Party in connection therewith, nor will the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Purchasers for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

(c)            Each Purchaser hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as its collateral agent under each of the Transaction Documents and agrees that, in so acting, the Collateral Agent will have all of the rights, protections, exculpations, indemnities and other benefits provided to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and hereby authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent, on behalf of such Purchaser and all Purchasers, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any of the Purchaser, from time to time to (i) take any action with respect to any Collateral or any Transaction Document which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens on the Collateral granted pursuant to any such Transaction Document or protect and preserve the Collateral Agent’s ability to enforce the liens or realize upon the Collateral, (ii) act as collateral agent for such Purchaser for purposes of acquiring, holding, enforcing and perfecting all Liens created by the Transaction Documents and all other purposes stated therein, (iii) enter into non-disturbance or similar agreements in connection with licensing agreements and arrangements permitted by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and (iv) otherwise to take or refrain from taking any and all action that the Collateral Agent shall deem necessary or advisable in fulfilling its role as Collateral Agent under any of the Transaction Documents.

ARTICLE VI          MISCELLANEOUS

6.1           Termination and Survival. This Agreement may be terminated by each Purchaser, as to the Purchaser’s obligations hereunder only and without any effect whatsoever on the obligations between the Company and the other

Purchasers, by written notice to the Company and the other Purchasers, if the Initial Closing has not occurred on or before the tenth (10^th) Business Day following the date hereof.

Notwithstanding any termination of any Transaction Document, the reimbursement and indemnities to which the Purchaser Parties are entitled under the provisions of any Transaction Document shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Purchaser Parties against events arising after such termination as well as before.

The foregoing shall be in addition to, and shall not be construed to limit, any other provisions of the Transaction Documents regarding indemnification and costs and expenses to be paid by the Company Parties.

6.3          Modifications and Signatures.

(a)            Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents contain and constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior negotiations, agreements, and understandings, whether written or oral, of the parties hereto, which the parties acknowledge have been merged into such documents.

(b)            Amendments. No amendment, modification or termination of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be effective without the written consent of the Company and the Required Purchasers (or such other number of Purchasers as expressly stated in other provisions of the Transaction Documents); provided, that (i) if any such amendment, modification or termination disproportionately and adversely impacts a Purchaser (or group of Purchasers), the consent of holders of a majority of the principal amount of the Notes held by such disproportionately impacted Purchaser (or group of Purchasers) shall also be required and (ii) this clause (b) may only be modified with the consent of all Purchasers. No waiver or consent shall be effective against any party unless given in writing by such party and then any such waiver shall then be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. Where the consent or waiver of the Purchasers generally (and not each Purchaser) is required, it may be given by the Required Purchasers. Any modification effected in accordance with accordance with this Section 6.3(b) shall be binding upon each Purchaser and holder of Purchased Securities and the Company Parties.

(c)            Beneficiaries; Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided in any other Transaction Document with respect to such Transaction Document, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall bind and inure solely to the benefit of the Company Parties, the Collateral Agent, the other Purchaser Parties, and their respective successors and, if permitted, assigns; provided, that no Company Party may assign any part of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or any right, obligation, benefit, title or interest hereunder or thereunder, without the Collateral Agent and the Required Purchasers’ prior written consents and any assignment done without such consents shall be void ab initio. Unless otherwise expressly provided in any Transaction Document, each Purchaser may sell, assign or transfer, or sell, issue, negotiate or grant participations in, all or any part of any right, obligation, benefit, title or interest under, including any remedy under, any Transaction Security or Transaction Document with the consent of the Collateral Agent and without the consent of any Company Party; provided, that any transferee of the Purchased Securities shall agree in a writing for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Company Parties to be bound, with respect to such transferred Purchased Securities, by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to “Purchasers” (and any attempt to effect such transfer without securing such agreement shall be null and void but any such agreement shall be effective to make such transferee a party to this Agreement as a Purchaser and to be bound by, and benefit from, the provisions of this Agreement applying to a Purchaser).

(d)            No Implied Waivers or Notice Rights. No notice to or demand on any Company Party, whether or not in any Proceeding, pursuant to any Transaction Document shall entitle any Company Party to any other or further notice (except as specifically required hereunder or under any other Transaction Document) or demand in similar or other circumstances. The failure by any Purchaser Party at any time or times to require strict performance by any Company Party of any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the granting of any waiver or indulgence shall not waive, affect or otherwise diminish any right of any Purchaser Party thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance with such provision, shall not affect, or operate a waiver under, any other provision of any Transaction Document (except as specifically mentioned) and shall not constitute a course of

- 37 -

dealing by such Purchaser Party at variance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and therefore, among other things, shall not be construed to require any notice by such Purchaser Party of its intent to require strict adherence to the terms of such Transaction Document in the future). No waiver of any Default or Event of Default or any default under or breach of any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. None of the foregoing actions shall in any way affect the ability of each Purchaser Party, in its discretion, to exercise any rights available to it under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or under applicable Regulations, except as specifically agreed in any written waiver or other modification made in accordance with accordance with this Section 6.3.

(e)            Counterparts. This Agreement and each Transaction Document may be executed in counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and both of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. In proving this Agreement in any Proceedings, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the party against whom such enforcement is sought. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document by e-mail or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart by hand.

(f)            Electronic Signatures. Each party agrees that the electronic signatures, whether digital or encrypted, of the parties included in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document are intended to authenticate this writing and to have the same force and effect as manual signatures. Electronic signature means any electronic sound, symbol, or process attached to or logically associated with a record and executed and adopted by a party with the intent to sign such record, including facsimile or email electronic signatures. The Company expressly agrees that this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents are “transferable records” as defined in applicable Regulations relating to electronic transaction and that it may be created, authenticated, stored, transmitted and transferred in a manner consistent with and permitted by such applicable Regulations.

6.4            Notices.

(a)            All notices, requests, demands, and other communications to either party hereto given under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be in writing (including electronic mail transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to such party at the physical address or send to the electronic mailing address set forth in the signature pages hereof or at such other physical address or electronic mailing address as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose of notice to the Purchasers and the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4.

(b)            Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after such communication is deposited in the U.S. Mail with first class postage pre-paid, addressed to the noticed party at the address specified herein, (ii) if by nationally recognized overnight courier, when delivered with receipt acknowledged in writing by the noticed party, (iii) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered with receipt acknowledged in writing by the noticed party or (iv) if given by electronic mail, when delivered (receipt by the sender of a receipt using the “return receipt” function or receipt of a reply email being presumptive evidence of receipt thereof); provided, that if such electronic mail is not sent prior to the last trading hour of the Principal Trading Market of the Transaction Securities on a Trading Day, such electronic mail shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of trading on the next Trading Day for such Principal Trading Market. Any written notice, request or demand that is not sent in conformity with the provisions hereof shall nevertheless be effective on the date that such notice, request or demand is actually received by the individual to whose attention at the noticed party such notice, request or demand is required to be sent.

6.5           Set-Off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable Regulations and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each Purchaser Party is hereby authorized by the Company Parties at any time or from time to time, without notice or demand to any Company Party or to any other Person, any such notice or demand being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, including indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other indebtedness or other amounts at any time held or owing

- 38 -

by such Company Party to or for the credit or the account of any Company Party or any of their Related Parties against and on account of any amounts due by any Company Party or any of their Related Parties to any Purchaser Party under any Transaction Documents (including from the purchase price to be disbursed hereunder for the purchase of the Purchased Securities), irrespective of whether or not (a) such Purchaser Party shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Notes or any other “Obligation” (as defined thereunder) shall have become due and payable and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured. If, as a result of such set off, appropriate or application, such Purchaser Party receives more than it is owed under any Transaction Document, it shall hold such amounts in trust for the other Purchaser Parties and transfer such amounts to the other Purchaser Parties ratably according to the amounts they are owed on the date of receipt.

6.6            Governing Law; Courts.

(a)            Except as otherwise expressly provided in any other Transaction Document, this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and all claims, disputes, Proceedings, and matters related hereto or thereto or arising hereunder or thereunder or arising from or relating to the relationship among any of the parties hereto or thereto, are governed by, and shall be construed, interpreted and enforced exclusively in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware).

(b)            Any such Proceeding shall be brought exclusively in the Delaware state courts sitting in Wilmington, DE or the federal courts of the United States of America for the District of Delaware sitting in Wilmington, DE; provided, that the Collateral Agent and any Purchaser may bring Proceedings in other jurisdictions to enforce any Transaction Document. Each Company Party (i) accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of such courts, (ii) irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue, whether based on the grounds of forum non conveniens or on the fact that such jurisdiction is improper or otherwise, or any other objection that such party is not subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, that it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any Proceeding in that jurisdiction, (iii) irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the service of process of any court referred to above in any Proceeding by the mailing of copies of the process to the parties hereto as provided in Section 6.4 and (iv) irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that a final judgment in any such Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Service effected as provided in this manner will become effective ten (10) calendar days after the mailing of the process. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in any Transaction Document shall affect the right of any Purchaser Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Regulations or commence Proceedings or otherwise proceed against any Company Party in any other jurisdiction.

6.7            Severability. Any provision of any Transaction Document being held illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not affect any part of such provision not held illegal, invalid or unenforceable, any other provision of any Transaction Document or any part of such provision in any other jurisdiction, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. In addition, upon any determination that any such term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify the relevant Transaction Document so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

6.8            Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, that, in the case of a rescission by such Purchaser of a conversion or exercise of any Purchased Security, such Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to such rescinded conversion or exercise.

- 39 -

6.9             Replacement of Certificates. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Transaction Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Transaction Securities.

6.10          Remedies.

(a)            In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each Purchaser (severally and not jointly) 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 contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

(b)            If any Company Party shall fail to discharge any covenant, duty or obligation hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents, each Purchaser may, in its discretion at any time, for the account and at the expense of the Company Parties jointly and severally, pay any amount or do any act required of such Company Party hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents or otherwise lawfully requested by any Purchaser (including buying-in Transaction Securities in the Principal Trading Market of such Transaction Securities in case of failure by the Company to deliver Transaction Securities). All fees, costs and expenses incurred by any Purchaser in connection with the taking of any such action shall be reimbursed to such Purchaser by the Company Parties, jointly and severally, on demand, with interest at the highest interest rate that may be applicable, whether in the absence or during an Event of Default, to amounts due under the Notes of such Purchaser from the date such payment is made or such costs or expenses are incurred to the date of payment thereof. Any payment made or other action taken by any Purchaser under this clause (b) shall be without prejudice to any right to assert, and without waiver of, any breach of any Transaction Document and without prejudice to any Purchaser Party’s right to proceed thereafter as provided herein or in any of the other Transaction Documents.

(c)            The remedies provided in this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under any Transaction Document, whether at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

(d)            Nothing in any Transaction Document shall limit the Purchaser Party’s rights to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by any Company Party to comply with the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(e)            Each Company Party acknowledges and agrees that any Event of Default will cause irreparable harm to the Purchasers and the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. Therefore, in the event of any such Event of Default, the Purchasers shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

6.11          Marshaling; Payment Set Aside. No Purchaser Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any property in favor of any Company Party or any other party or against or in payment of any amount due under any Transaction Document. To the extent that any Company Party makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or any Purchaser Party enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to any Company Party, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any Regulation (including 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, the Obligations repaid, the Transaction Documents and all Liens, rights and remedies thereunder, 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.

6.12          Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Company Party hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any Proceeding that may be brought by any Purchaser in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of each Company Party under the Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable Regulations (the “Maximum Rate”) and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that any Company Party may be obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable Regulations. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by any Company Party to any Purchaser Party with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess shall be applied by such Purchaser Party to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at such Purchaser’s election.

6.13         Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.

6.14          Further Assurances. The Company Parties agree to take such further actions as each Purchaser shall reasonably request from time to time in connection herewith to evidence, give effect to or carry out this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

6.15          Interpretation. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of any Transaction Document. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided in any Transaction Document, if the last or appointed day for a payment, the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted under any Transaction Document shall not be a Business Day, then such payment may be made, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day. As used in any Transaction Document, references to the singular will include the plural and vice versa and references to the masculine gender will include the feminine and neuter genders and vice versa, as appropriate. When used in any Transaction Document, unless otherwise expressly provided in such Transaction Document, (a) the words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import refer to such Transaction Document as a whole and not to any particular provision of such Transaction Document, (b) recital, article, section, subsection, schedule and exhibit references are references with respect to such Transaction Document unless otherwise specified, (c) any reference to any agreement shall include a reference to all recitals, appendices, exhibits and schedules to such agreement and, unless the prior written consent of any party is required hereunder and is not obtained, shall be a reference to such agreement as waived, amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified and (d) any reference to a specific Regulation shall be to such Regulation, as modified from time to time, together with any successor or replacement Regulation, in each case as in effect at the time of determination. Unless the context otherwise requires, when used in any Transaction Document, the following terms have the following meaning: (t) “asset” and “property” have the same meaning and mean, “collectively, all rights and interests in tangible and intangible assets and properties, whether real, personal or mixed and including cash, capital stock, revenues, accounts, leasehold interests, contract rights and other rights under Permits and Contractual Obligations,” (u) “documents” and “documentation” have the same meaning and mean “collectively, all documents, drafts, instruments, agreements, indentures, certificates, forms, opinions, powers of attorney, notices, summons, reports, financial statements and other writings, however evidenced, whether in physical or electronic form,” (v) “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import shall be deemed to include electronic signatures and the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the

- 41 -

same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Regulation, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the Delaware Uniform Electronic Transactions Act and any other similar state Regulation based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, (w) “incur” means incur, create, make, issue, assume or otherwise become or remain directly or indirectly liable in respect of or responsible for, in each case whether directly or indirectly, as primary obligor or guarantor or endorser, and the terms “incurrence” and “incurred” and similar derivatives shall have correlative meanings, (x) “including” means “including, without limitation,” (y) “knowledge” of the any Company Party means the best knowledge of any officer, director or employee of such Company Party after due inquiry and (z) “ordinary course of business” means in the ordinary course of business, as conducted on the date hereof, consistent with past practices reflected in written disclosures made on or prior to the date hereof in accordance with this Agreement, together with such changes thereto as may be approved by the Required Purchasers and the Collateral Agent, each in their sole discretion. The headings in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. All references in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to statutes and regulations shall include all amendments of same and implementing regulations and any successor statutes and regulations; to any instrument or agreement (including any of the Transaction Documents) shall include any and all modifications and supplements thereto and any and all restatements, extensions or renewals thereof to the extent such modifications, supplements, restatements, extensions or renewals of any such documents are permitted by the terms hereof and thereof. An Event of Default shall be deemed to exist at all times during the period commencing on the date that such Event of Default occurs to the date on which such Event of Default is waived in writing pursuant to the relevant Note. Whenever in any provision of any Transaction Document, any Purchaser is authorized to take or decline to take any action (including making any determination) in the exercise of its “discretion,” such provision shall be understood to mean that such Purchaser may take or refrain to take such action in its sole discretion. References to times of the day in any Transaction Document shall refer to Eastern Time. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including,” the words “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding” and the word “through” means “to and including.” Time is of the essence of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. No provision of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto by any Governmental Authority by reason of such party having or being deemed to have structured, drafted or dictated such provision. “month” (but not “calendar month”) means each period from a date of determination to the day in the next calendar month numerically-corresponding to such date (provided, that, if such calendar month does not have any such numerically-corresponding day, such numerically-corresponding day shall be deemed to be the last day of such calendar month).

6.16        Waiver of Jury Trial and Certain Other Rights.

(a)            The parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Regulations, any right that they may have to trial by jury of any claim or cause of action or in any Proceeding, directly or indirectly based upon or arising out of, under or in connection with, this Agreement or any Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated therein or related thereto (whether founded in contract, tort or any other theory). Each party hereto (a) certifies that no other party, no Purchaser Party and no Affiliate of any of them and no attorney, agent or other representative of any of the foregoing has represented, expressly or otherwise, that any Person would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this section.

(b)            Each Company Party acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers are a material inducement to the Purchasers to enter into and accept this Agreement. Each Company Party has reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and voluntarily waived its jury trial rights following consultation with such legal counsel. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court. This Section 6.16 shall not restrict a party from exercising remedies under the UCC or from exercising pre-judgment remedies under applicable Regulations.
