PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

Although it contains all material information, this summary is not complete and may not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our common stock.  You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the more detailed information regarding the Company, the risks of purchasing our common stock discussed under “Risk Factors” and our financial statements and the accompanying notes.  In this prospectus, “we,” “us,” “Company” and “our,” refer to Analytical Surveys, Inc., unless the context otherwise requires.  Unless otherwise indicated, the term “year,” “fiscal year,” or “fiscal” refers to our fiscal year ending September 30th.  Unless we tell you otherwise, the term “common stock” as used in this prospectus refers to shares of common stock, no par value per share, of Analytical Surveys, Inc..

Background

The Company was formed in 1981 and has, since inception, provided customized data conversion, spatial data management and technical services for the geographic information systems market. Geographic information systems (“GIS”) consist of computer software, hardware, data, and personnel that are designed to help manipulate, analyze, and present information that is tied to a spatial (geographic) location.

Our customers today use GIS technology to:

·               improve network operations business processes in order to reduce operating expenses;

·               improve corporate customer information processes that capture, report and monitor information related to usage, billing, payments, order processing, special service requests, and records documentation; and

·               access and update accurate information regarding the location, condition, and function of physical assets in support of operations and maintenance of facilities.

In the last two fiscal years, there has been an increase in demand for GIS solutions, but we have experienced a significant decrease in demand for GIS data conversion services.  We believe that the primary reason for such decrease is that existing and potential customers have been using newly emerging technology to reduce the need for outsourcing GIS data conversion services, which historically accounted for as high as 75% of the total cost of a typical GIS solution.  Specifically, the emergence in recent years of commercial off-the-shelf (“COTS”) hardware and software solutions for gathering satellite remote sensing base data and topographic, planimetric and cadastral data have given customers increased capabilities to replace our services with an in-house, significantly lower cost alternative.  This shift to COTS, coupled with offerings from service firms with large labor content in India, has resulted in lower margins and increased competition in the industry.  Our financial results reflected this trend.  In fiscal years 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively, our revenues were $15.0 million, $11.6 million and $6.1 million, respectively, and, in spite of significant cost cutting measures, we experienced in those years a net loss of $3.9 million, $1.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

During fiscal 2005, we examined a broad spectrum of business opportunities related to the GIS sector.  We evaluated acquisitions that would facilitate our entrance into the federal markets and various other opportunities, including software and service solutions for location based services and state and local GIS initiatives.  As of the date of this prospectus, we have not identified an acceptable acquisition serving the GIS marketplace that produces suitable margins or sufficient returns on acquisition costs.  During the first quarter of the current fiscal year we reached the conclusion that entering the energy sector, by engaging in the exploration and production of oil and gas, would be in our best interests.  This conclusion was based on the experience of two members of our Board of Directors who have relative experience  in exploration and production of oil and gas and, given the all-time high prices for hydrocarbon products, management’s belief that such activities will yield a better than average return that would bring us back into profitability.  We have continued performing our existing GIS contracts.  However, as of June 30, 2006, we are in the final months of completion of substantially all material contracts, with the exception of one contract that will extend into fiscal 2007.  In order to maximize the cash flow that can be obtained from our existing GIS contracts, effective August 1, 2006, we sold the assets associated with our Wisconsin-based operations.

1




On December 7, 2005, we engaged Pluris Partners, Inc., a merchant banking firm specializing in mergers and acquisitions, private equity placement and financial advisory services, to facilitate our entry into the energy sector.  Pluris Partners recommended a strategy of acquiring working interests in oil and gas properties in a series of drilling programs and, generally, of seeking and taking advantage of acquisition opportunities in the energy sector, including both exploration and production operations and technology solutions, and any other sector that was deemed attractive.  We endorsed this strategy with the intention of financing this expansion through private placements of equity supplemented by issuance of debt, which is dependent on the terms on which we are able to negotiate, if any.  The Company has begun a deliberate process of transforming its business from a GIS services provider to an independent oil and gas enterprise, seeking to leverage non-operating participation in high quality drilling and production prospects for the development of U.S. on-shore oil and natural gas reserves.

Our initial steps in implementing this strategy included the purchase of a twenty percent (20%) working interest (with a 16.7% net revenue interest) in an oil well designated as Welker 1-7, located in Pawnee County, Oklahoma for $300,000 cash in February 2006.  Contemporaneously with such purchase, we entered into an operating agreement with the seller and owner of the other 80% working interest.  Additionally, in March 2006, we purchased certain oil and gas working interests and field equipment for 129,032 shares of our common stock having a fair market value (equal to the closing bid on March 14, 2006) of $1.55 per share, or $200,000, plus $150,000 in cash.

As previously reported, these acquisitions were financed by us in part from proceeds of a $760,000 private placement of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (convertible into 598,425 shares of our common stock) (the “A Preferred”) accompanied by Class A Warrants (exercisable into 299,212 shares of our common stock at $1.34 per share) and Class B Warrants (exercisable into 299,212 shares of our common stock at $1.49 per share).  As of the date of this prospectus, 280,000 shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding. None of the Class A and Class B Warrants have been exercised.  The shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the A Preferred and exercise of the Class A and Class B Warrants were registered for resale under a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-132691) filed with the SEC on March 29, 2006, and which became effective on April 11, 2006.

In April 2006, we hired Donald L. Fryhover, a Senior Vice President, to lead the development and expansion into the energy sector, and formed the Energy Division, a business unit within the Company in which we will concentrate all of our oil and gas activities.

As part of the growth strategy of the Energy Division, we purchased a 12.5% working interest (with a 10% net revenue interest) in a relatively large natural gas well known as the Adrienne 1-9, located in Washita County, Oklahoma.  We purchased the leasehold interest for this well utilizing existing cash reserves.  Our obligation for tangible and intangible costs of drilling and completing the well would be approximately $1.5 million, of which $1.2 million was to be funded not later than May 31, 2006.

The purchase was based upon a review of the relevant geological, financial and other information, including the relative risk profile of the well and the identity and stature of the operator.  The Board of Directors believes this venture constitutes a unique opportunity to participate and align our operations with a highly respected operator that possess sophisticated knowledge and experience specific to the Anadarko basin and the structures underlying this portion of Washita County.  Geological data available for review included, among other things, proprietary 3D seismic.

The Board considered a number of factors, including:

·                  our continuing liquidity needs to operate and grow our business;

·                  the time-sensitive element involved in the Washita County investment;

·                  our need to expand our Energy Division since backlog in our traditional GIS services business continues to shrink;

·                  the unavailability of alternative financing on acceptable terms; and

·                  our need to maintain our shareholders’ equity in accordance with NASDAQ continued listing requirements.

The Private Placement

Our participation in the Washita County well was financed by means of a $2.0 million private placement which closed on May 31, 2006 (the “Closing Date”).  In exchange for a $2.0 million cash investment, we issued each of Longview Fund, L.P. and Alpha Capital AG (collectively, the “Investors”) a Convertible Secured Promissory Note, in the principal amount of $1.5 million and $.5 million, respectively, with a maturity date of May 31, 2008, and bearing interest at the rate of 14%, payable quarterly (collectively, the “Notes”).   The Investors also received, in the aggregate, Class E Warrants entitling the holders to purchase 752,072 shares of the Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.186 per share, the closing bid price of our common stock on May 31, 2006, but where the number of shares to be acquired by any holder through the exercise of the Class E Warrants does not cause the Investor to become the beneficial owner of more than 9.99% of the then total number of shares of the common stock outstanding (the “Maximum One Holder Exercise Limitation”).  Limited to these terms, the issuance of the Notes and the Class E Warrants did not require approval by the shareholders under the relevant NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.

However, the Notes were purchased by the Investors in exchange for several additional terms and conditions, including the issuance of Class C Warrants and Class D Warrants, the inclusion of additional shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Class E Warrants and upon conversion of the Notes.  NASDAQ Marketplace Rules require shareholder approval for the issuance of shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to the additional terms and conditions contemplated in the Notes.  We solicited such shareholder approval at our Annual Meeting of the Shareholders held on August 29, 2006 (the “Approval”).  At that meeting, our shareholders failed to provide such Approval.  Consequently, pursuant to the terms of the Notes, on September 19, 2006, the Investors provided notice of acceleration of the maturity date of the Notes to October 19, 2006.  We are required to pay to the Investors in cash the aggregate principal amount of the Notes together with any accrued and unpaid interest.  As of the date of this prospectus, if the Note remains outstanding on October 19, 2006, the amount we must pay on that date will be $2,014,575.

The Warrant

As part of the private placement we issued two Class E Common Stock Purchase Warrants for the purchase of 2,107,925 shares of our common stock in the aggragate.  The per share exercise price is $1.186, which is equal to 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on May 30, 2006.  The Class E Warrants are exercisable during the period commencing six (6) months after the Closing Date and until five (5) years after the Closing Date.  Because Approval was not obtained, the maximum amount of shares issuable upon exercise may not exceed 752,072 shares of our common stock.

We also issued Class C Warrants and Class D Warrants as part of the private placement.  These warrants are not exercisable because Approval was not obtained.

Forward-Looking Statements

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which may include statements about our:

·               business plans and strategy;

·               exploration and development drilling prospects, inventories, productions, projects and programs;

·               natural gas and oil reserves;

·               ability to obtain permits and governmental approvals;

·               technology;

·               financial strategy;

3




·               realized oil and gas prices;

·               lease operating expenses, general and administrative costs and funding and development costs;

·               future operating results; and

·               plans, objectives, expectations and intentions.

All of these types of statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this prospectus, are forward-looking statements.  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “expect”, “plan”, “project”, “intend”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “predict”, “pursue”, “target”, “seek”, “objective”, or “continue”, the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology.

The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus are based largely on our expectations, which reflect estimates and assumptions made by our management.  These estimates and assumptions reflect our best judgment based on currently known market conditions and other factors.  Although we believe such estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control.  In addition, management’s assumptions about future events may prove to be inaccurate.  All readers are cautioned that the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus are not guarantees of future performance, and we cannot assure any reader that such statements will be realized or the forward-looking statements due to the many factors including those listed in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in this prospectus.  All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this prospectus.  We do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  These cautionary statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risk factors, in addition to the other information set forth or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, before purchasing shares of our common stock. Each of these risk factors could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition, and also adversely affect the value of an investment in our common stock.

General Perspective on the Overall Risks Involved

For the last several years, our traditional GIS data conversion business has been shrinking dramatically, causing us to incur severe operating losses.  Although we have reduced our operating losses in the current fiscal year as a result of cost cutting measures our backlog continues to decline, and we have not been successful in obtaining any significant contracts.  The fixed overhead costs required to perform the remaining contracts preclude us from being able to return to profitability by pursuing our traditional business.  Indeed, without additional cost cutting measures, our cash flow derived solely from this business may be insufficient to meet the operating and capital requirements of this business beyond the current fiscal year.

As we enter into the oil and gas exploration and production business, we are seeking to make investments in oil and gas activities that will result in a level of operating income that will generate cash flow sufficient to meet the operating and capital requirements.  Our acquisitions of the working interests in February-March 2006 were small and will not produce significant cash flows.  Our recent decision to invest $1.7 million in the Washita County well, was intended to provide the potential for significant cash flow.  However, there is no assurance that such cash flow, if any, will be realized.

Moreover, the Investors have exercised their right under the Note to accelerate the maturity of the Notes.  If we are unable to repay the principal and accrued interest on the Notes on or before October 19, 2006, the Investors may exercise their rights as first lien holders and, among other remedies, assume our interest in the Washita County

4




well.  This action may be taken by the Investors before the Washita County well begins to generate production revenues and thus deprive us of the main source we would be relying upon to achieve such level of operating income.  As of the date of this prospectus, if the Note remains outstanding on October 19, 2006, the amount we must pay on that date will be $2,014,575.

In summary, there is no assurance that our intended transition into an oil and gas producer will indeed be seamless.  In other words, a major restructuring of the Company might be necessary if the Washita County well is unsuccessful or if it is ultimately successful but we lose our investments because we are unable to repay the Notes or find alternative financing.

Risks Related to our Traditional Business

Our cash flow may be insufficient to meet our operating and capital requirements.

We currently do not have a line of credit with any lender and rely solely on cash flow from operations to fund future operations and expenditures.  There is no assurance that the cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our capital requirements. We must convert accounts receivable and revenue earned in excess of billings to cash in order to meet our operating expenses and debt payments.  If these actions are not sufficient, and we are not able to meet our commitments when due, then we will be forced to liquidate assets and repay our secured creditors with the proceeds.

Our current and former independent auditors have expressed an opinion that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

During the fiscal years of 2000 through 2005, and continuing into fiscal 2006, we have experienced significant operating losses with corresponding reductions in working capital and stockholders’ equity, excluding the impact of debt forgiveness.  Our revenues and backlog have also decreased substantially during the same period.  We do not currently have any external financing in place to support operating cash flow requirements.  Our independent auditors issued a going concern qualification on our financial statements for fiscal 2004 and 2005, based on the significant operating losses reported in fiscal 2005 and prior years and a lack of external financing. Our former independent auditors issued a going concern qualification on our financial statements for fiscal 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2003.  As of June 30, 2006, the amount of our accumulated deficit was approximately $33.8 million.

The market for our services is highly competitive and such competition within the GIS service industry has resulted in lower profit margins and reduced volume of new work.

As the GIS services industry has evolved, additional competitors have entered the industry. In addition, improvements in technology have provided both competitors and customers with tools to perform the services we provide, as well as lowered the cost of entry into the GIS services industry. We are facing increased price competition, particularly in the utilities market, from relatively new entrants to the market that perform their work utilizing mostly offshore labor. A number of our competitors or potential competitors have capabilities and resources greater than ours.

Our backlog continues to decrease and we have not signed enough contracts to generate sufficient revenue and profit margin in our traditional business to achieve profitability.

Our backlog has been impacted by changes in GIS industry market conditions.   We believe that the need for our services has been significantly reduced as existing and potential customers have begun using newly emerging technology that has reduced the need for outsourcing GIS data conversion services.  Such services historically accounted for as high as 75% of the total cost of a typical GIS solution.  Specifically, the emergence in recent years of COTS hardware and software solutions for gathering satellite remote sensing base data and topographic, planimetric and cadastral data have given customers increased capabilities to replace our services with an in-house, significantly lower cost alternative.  This shift to COTS, coupled with offerings from service firms with

5




large labor content in India, has resulted in lower margins and increased competition in the industry.  Backlog increases when new contracts are signed and decreases as revenues are recognized.  These changes in industry market conditions have resulted in a reduction of the execution of new contracts and the renewal of expiring contracts, thus causing a decrease in our backlog.  At September 30, 2005, and 2004, backlog was $4.0 and $6.5 million, respectively.  At December 31, 2005, March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006, backlog was $2.9 million, $1.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively.  Effective August 1, 2006, we sold selected assets associated with our Waukesha, Wisconsin operations.  The contracts that were assigned to the buyer in that sale represented $1.6 million or our $1.7 million backlog as of July 31, 2006.

Our customer contracts may be adversely modified, changed or terminated prior to the expiration of the contract terms.

Most of our revenue is earned under long-term, fixed-price contracts. Our contractual obligations typically include large projects that will extend over six months to four years. These long-term contracts entail significant risks, including:

·                 Our ability to estimate our costs accurately is critical to ensuring the profitability of projects.

·                 Our skill at controlling costs under such fixed-price contracts once in production is required for profitable operations.

·                 Contracts may be signed with a broad outline of the scope of the work, with detailed specifications prepared after a contract is signed. In preparing the detailed specifications, customers may negotiate specifications that reduce our planned project profitability.

·                 Customers may increase the scope of contracts and we must negotiate change orders to maintain planned project profit margins and cash flows.

·                 Customers may request us to slow down or scale back the scope of a project to satisfy their budget or cash constraints. Schedule delays and scope reductions may interrupt workflow, create inefficiencies, and increase cost.

·                 Customers may require a compressed schedule that may place additional strains on cash availability and management’s ability to hire and train personnel required to meet deadlines.

·                 Contracts are generally terminable by the customer on relatively short notice, and it may be difficult for us to recoup our entire investment if a project is terminated prior to completion.

·                 Large, long-term, fixed-price contracts generally increase our exposure to the effects of inflation and currency exchange rate fluctuation.

We experience quarterly variations in our operating results due to external influences beyond our control; such variations could result in a decreased stock value.

Our quarterly operating results vary significantly from quarter to quarter, depending upon factors such as the following:

·                 The timing of customers’ budget processes.  Our customers have greatly reduced purchasing of technology solutions over the past four years. This reduction, broadly reflective of technology spending in general, may create a large demand for additional resources in the future in order to update aging systems.

·                 Slowdowns or acceleration of work by customers.  Our contracts are generally scheduled for completion over many months or perhaps years.  If delivery schedules are accelerated or delayed, our revenues may fluctuate accordingly.  Costs generally increase when a schedule is lengthened due to the additional

6




management and administrative costs associated with a longer project.

·                 The impact of weather conditions on the ability of our or subcontractors to obtain satisfactory aerial photography or field data.  Some of the data is collected in the field at the customer’s location.  Winter weather conditions and other adverse weather can greatly impact our ability to collect data bundles and thereby generate revenue.  Similarly, cloudy conditions or snow cover impacts the collection of accurate aerial photography.

For these reasons, period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not and will not be necessarily a reliable indication of future performance.  The fluctuations of our operating results could result in a decreased value of our stock.  We also could experience inconsistent quarterly revenues as a result of general weak economic conditions as customers defer projects or cancel planned expenditures.

In order to obtain new business, we would need to invest in research and development to remain competitive.

We have devoted limited resources to developing and acquiring specialized data collection and conversion hardware and software. We  have not  invested in, acquired, or developed new and enhanced technology  that might enable us to enhance our service offerings.  Competitors have introduced new products and services that embody new technologies and have adapted their products and services to emerging industry standards, and we believe it is unlikely that we will be able to obtain new business.

We may be unable to protect our proprietary rights, permitting competitors to duplicate our products and services.

We do not have any patent protection for our products or technology.  Third parties could independently develop technology similar to ours, obtain unauthorized access to our proprietary technology or misappropriate technology to which we have granted access.  Because our means of protecting our intellectual property rights may not be adequate, it may be possible for a third party to copy, reverse engineer or otherwise obtain and use our technology without authorization. Unauthorized copying, use or reverse engineering of our products could result in the loss of current or future customers.

Our business comes from two core markets and adverse changes in those markets could cause a reduction in the demand for our services.

We derive our revenues primarily from two core markets, utilities and state and local governments. The ongoing consolidation and reduced technology budgets of the utilities industry has and may continue to increase competition and reduce profitability for the GIS services projects of current and potential customers. Also, to the extent that utilities remain regulated, legal, financial and political considerations may constrain the ability of utilities to fund geographic information systems. Many state and municipal entities are subject to legal constraints on spending, and a multi-year contract with any such entity may be subject to termination in any subsequent year if the entity does not choose to appropriate funds for such contracts in that year. Moreover, fundamental changes in the business practices or capital spending policies of any of these customers, whether due to budgetary, regulatory, technological or other developments or changes in the general economic conditions in the industries in which they operate, could cause a material reduction in demand by such customers for the services we offer. Any such reduction in demand could have a significant adverse impact on our net revenue levels.

The unavailability of a skilled labor force may hinder our ability to produce accurate, cost-effective solutions to meet the terms of our contracts.

Our business is labor-intensive and requires trained employees. We compete for qualified personnel against numerous companies, including more established companies with significantly greater financial resources than ours. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected if we are unable to hire qualified personnel or if we are unable to retain qualified personnel in the future.  High turnover among our

7




employees could increase our recruiting and training costs, could affect our ability to perform services and earn revenues on a timely basis and could decrease operating efficiencies and productivity.  In addition, a significant portion of our costs consists of wages to hourly workers. An increase in hourly wages, costs of employee benefits or employment taxes could increase our other general and administrative costs and thereby reduce our net income. We reduced our staff in 2005 to meet the lower demands of our existing business, and we experienced additional loss of personnel in fiscal 2005, and thus far in fiscal 2006, due to the uncertainty of the acquisition of new GIS contracts.

If we are unable to retain the members of our senior management team our business operations may be adversely impacted.

Our success depends upon the continued service of our key employees:  Lori A. Jones, Chief Executive Officer, Barry B. Golko, Chief Accounting Officer and Donald L. Fryhover, Senior Vice President.  Our ability to retain our management team is an important factor in our turnaround program and our ability to pursue our overall business plan.  While we have an employment agreement with Ms. Jones, there is no assurance that we will be able to retain the services of such key personnel.  We do not maintain any key personal life insurance policies.  Layoffs in recent years may impair our ability to retain and recruit other key personnel.  The loss or interruption of the services of Ms. Jones, or Messrs. Golko or Fryhover could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  Our future financial results will also depend upon our ability to attract and retain highly skilled technical, managerial and marketing personnel.

The unavailability or unsatisfactory performance of our subcontractors may affect our ability to deliver quality services to our customers.

Certain of our services require us to perform tasks that are outside our expertise such as the acquisition of aerial photography.  We are dependent upon the continued availability of third party subcontractors for such production tasks.  We also use subcontractors for work similar to that performed by our own employees such as field data acquisition.  The insufficient availability of or unsatisfactory performance by these unaffiliated third-party subcontractors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations due to delays in project schedules, product quality and increased costs of production.

The unsatisfactory performance or unavailability of overseas subcontractors may impact our ability to profitably perform services under existing contracts.

We utilize subcontractors in India and may from time to time use subcontractors in other overseas locations to perform certain tasks such as data conversion at lower costs than could be achieved in the United States.  Our ability to perform services under some existing contracts on a profitable basis is dependent upon the continued availability of our overseas subcontractors and the quality of their work.

We receive some business from referrals and any reduction in those referrals could affect our business.

A portion of our sales is the result of referrals derived, either directly or indirectly, from engineers, software developers and consultants in the GIS industry. We believe that our continued success in the GIS services market is dependent, in part, on our ability to maintain current relationships and to cultivate additional relationships with other industry participants. Such participants could acquire a GIS data collection or data conversion business or businesses or form other relationships with our competitors. There can be no assurance that relationships with GIS consultants will continue to be a source of business for us. Our inability to maintain such relationships or to form new relationships could reduce our ability to obtain new business and maintain existing business, thereby reducing our revenue.

Successful implementation of our turnaround efforts and the expansion of our business lines is required to return the Company to profitability.

8




The successful implementation of our turnaround efforts requires the cooperation of customers, subcontractors, vendors, lenders, outside professionals and employees. There can be no assurance that the specific strategies designed to return our GIS conversion data operations to profitability and positive cash flow can be implemented to the extent and in the timeframe planned. We have implemented financial and operational restructuring plans designed to improve operating efficiencies, reduce and eliminate cash losses and position ourselves for profitable operations.  Although we have reduced the size of our operating losses,  we have not been successful in acquiring new contracts, and it is unlikely that we can achieve a proper volume of business necessary to return to profitability.  Additionally, delays and difficulties in realizing cost savings, retaining employees and other turnaround efforts could result in further operating losses and a decrease or loss in the value of your investment.  Furthermore, as stated elsewhere in this section, we may not be able to expand our business lines into the energy sector, and such expansion may not result in profitable operations.  See Risks Related to Our Entry Into the Oil and Gas Business below.

 

Risks Related To Our Entry Into The Oil and Gas Business.

The results of oil and gas investments may yield revenue which falls short of expectations causing harm to our business.

Although several oil and gas investments have been made, the Washita County well is our largest investment to date and therefore significant emphasis has been placed upon this investment. Although the Adrienne 1-9 is an offset well to a significant producer of natural gas, there is no assurance that this well will be a producer of  natural gas.  There is also no assurance that, upon completion, the well will ultimately yield production in amounts necessary to support the financial projections.  In either case, we will not realize the revenue expected by us.  In the extreme case, where no revenue is realized because the operator was forced to plug and abandon the well, our overall business will be significantly harmed, we may be forced to liquidate our assets.

 

The Investors may force us to give up our participation in the Washita County well and, possibly, to restructure the Company.

On September 19, 2006, the Investors, as holders of a first lien on our assets, exercised their rights and accelerate the maturity date of the Notes to October 19, 2006.  If the Note remains outstanding on October 19, 2006, the amount we must pay on that date will be $2,014,575.  In order to meet this obligation, we need to raise additional capital and/or liquidate assets.  If we are unable to raise additional capital, the Investors may exercise their rights to foreclose on our assets, including the participation in the Washita County well.  If the foreclosure takes place while the well is being drilled and before it can be determined that our share of the proven gas reserves has a value exceeding 120% of the principal and accrued interest of the Notes, we may lose our entire participation in the well.  Under such circumstances, we will be forced to restructure the Company.

If we are unable to successfully recruit additional qualified personnel having experience in oil and gas exploration, our business may be harmed and we may not be able to expand our operations as planned.

In April 2006, we hired Donald L. Fryhover, who, as Senior Vice President of the Company, has been managing our oil and gas activities.  Other than Mr. Fryhover, we do not have qualified personnel who have experience in oil and gas exploration and production.   In order to successfully implement and manage our entry into the oil and gas business, we will have to recruit our own qualified personnel having experience in the oil and gas exploration and production business. Competition in the oil and gas sector for qualified individuals is intense.  We may not be able to find, attract and retain qualified personnel on acceptable terms.

If we are unable to obtain additional funding our business operations will be harmed.

We believe that our current cash position will be sufficient to meet our share of the operating expenses and capital expenditures required to exploit completely the oil and gas interests we have acquired thus far, including the Washita County well.  However, in order to fully implement our strategy of transitioning into the oil and gas sector,

9




we will need to acquire additional oil and gas interests and will, therefore, require additional funding.  Although we may receive approximately $1,080,748 from the exercise of the Class A and Class B Warrants, and up to approximately $891,957, less expenses, from the exercise of the Class E Warrants described in this prospectus, we have no way of estimating the ultimate amount that we will receive from the exercise of warrants.  Also, we do not know if additional financing will be available when needed, or if it is available, if it will be available on acceptable terms.  Insufficient funds may prevent us from implementing our business strategy.

 

Competition in the oil and gas industry is intense, which may adversely affect our ability to succeed.

The oil and gas industry is intensely competitive and we compete with other companies that have greater resources.  Many of these companies not only explore for and produce oil and gas, but also carry on refining operations and market petroleum and other products on a regional, national or worldwide basis.  These companies may be able to pay more for productive oil and gas properties and exploratory prospects or define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of properties and prospects than our financial or human resources permit.  In addition, these companies may have a greater ability to continue exploration activities during periods of low oil and gas market prices.  Our larger competitors may be able to absorb the burden of present and future federal, state, local and other laws and regulations more easily than we can, which would adversely affect our competitive position.  Our ability to acquire additional properties and to discover reserves in the future will be dependent upon our ability to evaluate and select suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment.  In addition, because we have fewer financial and human resources than many companies in our industry, we may be at a disadvantage in bidding for exploratory prospects and producing oil and gas properties.

The marketability of natural resources is affected by numerous factors beyond our control which may result in us not receiving an adequate return on invested capital to be profitable or viable.

The marketability of natural resources which may be acquired or discovered by us will be affected by numerous factors beyond our control. These factors include market fluctuations in oil and gas pricing and demand, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment, governmental regulations, land tenure, land use, regulations concerning the importing and exporting of oil and gas and environmental protection regulations. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in us not receiving an adequate return on invested capital to be profitable or viable.

Our business involves numerous operating hazards.

Our operations, including the Washita County well, are subject to certain hazards inherent in drilling for oil or gas, such as blowouts, reservoir damage, loss of production, loss of well control, punchthroughs, craterings or fires.  The occurrence of these events could result in the suspension of drilling operations, damage to or destruction of the equipment involved and injury or death to rig personnel.  Operations also may be suspended because of machinery breakdowns, abnormal drilling conditions, failure of subcontractors to perform or supply goods or services or personnel shortages.  Damage to the environment could also result from our operations, particularly through oil spillage or extensive uncontrolled fires.  We may also be subject to damage claims by other oil and gas companies.

Although we and the operators we engage will maintain insurance in the areas in which we operate, pollution and environmental risks generally are not fully insurable.  Our insurance policies and contractual rights to indemnity may not adequately cover our losses, and we do not have insurance coverage or rights to indemnify for all risks.  If a significant accident or other event occurs and is not fully covered by insurance or other contractual indemnity, it could adversely affect our financial position and results of operations.

Risks Relating To Our Common Stock

We have outstanding preferred stock and “blank check” preferred stock that could be issued resulting in the dilution of common stock ownership.

Our Articles of Incorporation allow the board of directors to issue up to 2,500,000 shares of preferred stock and to fix the rights, privileges and preferences of those shares without any further vote or action by the shareholders. The outstanding shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, together with the related warrants and possible dividends paid in kind, are convertible into a total of 242,079 shares of common stock, an amount which is approximately 6.41% of the 3,779,256 shares of common stock currently outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.  When converted, these shares will represent a dilution to the existing shareholders.  The preferred stock holds dividend priority and a liquidation preference over shares of our common stock.  Our common stock will be subject to additional dilution if our board of directors utilizes its right to issue additional shares of preferred stock that is convertible into common stock. Thus, the rights of the holders of common stock are and will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of the preferred stock that we have previously issued and any preferred stock that we may issue in the future. Any such issuance could be used to discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal by a third party.

Existing shareholders may experience very significant dilution from the sale of our common stock pursuant to this prospectus.

The sale of our common stock pursuant to this prospectus will have a very significant dilutive impact on our shareholders.  Up to 752,072 shares of common stock could be issuable upon the exercise of the Class E Warrants, representing 19.9% of the 3,779,256 shares issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.  However, the Maximum Holder Exercise Limitation described in section entitled “The Private Placement” is likely to cause the exercise of the Class E Warrants to extend over the entire combined five year exercise period and might even prevent the exercise of a portion of the Class E Warrants.  Nevertheless, it is highly probable and unavoidable that our net income per share will decrease in future periods and the market price of our common stock could decline. If our stock price decreases, then our existing shareholders would experience greater dilution.  Moreover, the perceived risk of dilution may cause our shareholders to sell their shares, which would contribute to a decline in the price of our common stock. Furthermore, the perceived risk of dilution and the resulting downward pressure on our stock price could encourage investors to engage in short sales of our common stock. By increasing the number of shares offered for sale, material amounts of short selling could further contribute to progressive price declines in our common stock.

Our stock price is highly volatile and the purchase or sale of relatively few shares can disproportionately influence the share price.

The trading price and volume of our common stock has been and may continue to be subject to significant fluctuations in response to:

·                 actual or anticipated quarterly variations in our operating results;

·                 further changes in the GIS industry or in the industries of any of our customers;

·                 changes in governmental regulation, government spending levels or budgetary procedures;

·                 conditions generally affecting the oil and gas industry;

·                 the success of our business and operating strategy; and

·                 the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies.

11




The trading price of the common stock may vary without regard to our operating performance. Historically, we have been a thinly traded stock, therefore relatively few shares traded can disproportionately influence share price.

We face possible delisting from The NASDAQ Capital Market, which could result in a limited trading market for our common stock, and could negatively affect the price of our common stock.

On July 21, 2006, we received a notice from the NASDAQ Stock Market that we were no longer in compliance with the requirements for continued inclusion of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market pursuant to the NASDAQ’s Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) (the ‘Rule”) because our common stock closed below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days.  We were given 180 calendar days, or until January 17, 2007, to regain compliance with the Rule.  To regain compliance with the Rule, the closing bid price of our common stock must be $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days before January 17, 2007.

If we fail to comply with the continued listing requirements of the NASDAQ Capital Market, including the Rule and the minimum stockholders equity requirement, we may be delisted from trading on such market, and thereafter trading in our common stock, if any, would be conducted through the over-the-counter market or on the Electronic Bulletin Board of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.  There is no guarantee that an active trading market for our common stock will be maintained on the NASDAQ Capital Market.  You may not be able to sell your shares quickly at the market price, or at all, if trading in our stock is not active.

Future sales of our common stock may cause the stock price to decline.

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, including the shares offered by the selling shareholders pursuant to this prospectus, or the perception that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.  In addition, the sale of these shares could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional common or preferred stock.  As of September 29, 2006, we had 3,779,256 shares of common stock outstanding, excluding stock options, of which, 3,696,302 shares are freely tradeable.

USE OF PROCEEDS

All of the shares of common stock offered hereby are being offered by the selling shareholders, who will receive all proceeds from such sales. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock offered by the selling shareholders.  However, we will receive aggregate proceeds of $891,957, less expenses, if and when the Class E Warrants are exercised in full in accordance with their terms.  There can be no assurance that any of those warrants will be exercised or that we will receive any proceeds therefrom.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

The selling shareholders are offering for resale up to 752,072 shares of our common stock.  The term “selling shareholder” includes the shareholders listed below and their transferees, pledges, donees or other successors.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling shareholders, their pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may from time to time sell shares of our common stock directly to purchasers or indirectly to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. The selling shareholders may sell all or part of their shares in one or more transactions at fixed prices, varying prices, prices at or related to the then-current market price or at negotiated prices. The selling shareholders will determine the specific offering price of the shares from time to time that, at that time, may be higher or lower than the market price of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market. Usual and customary brokerage fees will be paid by each selling shareholder.

The selling shareholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents participating in the distribution of the shares of our common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, and any profit from the sale of such shares by the selling shareholders and any compensation received by any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent may be deemed to be underwriting discounts under the Securities Act. The selling shareholders may agree to indemnify any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

Because selling shareholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, the selling shareholders will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. We have informed the selling shareholders that the anti-manipulative provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act may apply to their sales in the market. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the selling shareholders, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in such distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security.

13




The method by which the selling shareholders, or their pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may offer and sell their shares may include, but are not limited to, the following:

·                 sales on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the over-the-counter market, or other securities exchange on which the common stock is listed at the time of sale, at prices and terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then-current market price;

·                 sales in privately negotiated transactions;

·                 sales for their own account pursuant to this prospectus;

·                 through the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise through the settlement of short sales;

·                 cross or block trades in which broker-dealers will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as a principal in order to facilitate the transaction;

·                 purchases by broker-dealers who then resell the shares for their own account;

·                 brokerage transactions in which a broker solicits purchasers;

·                 any combination of these methods of sale; and

·                 any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

Any shares of common stock covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale under Rule 144 or Rule 144A of the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 or Rule 144A rather than under this prospectus. The shares of our common stock may be sold in some states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states, the shares of our common stock may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or the sale is entitled to an exemption from registration.

The selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions. In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of our common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume with selling shareholders. The selling shareholders may also enter into options or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of the shares offered hereby, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or understandings between any selling shareholder and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of shares of our common stock by the selling shareholders.

The selling shareholders will pay all fees, discounts and brokerage commissions in connection with any sales, including any fees to finders. We will pay all expenses of preparing and reproducing this prospectus, including expenses or compliance with state securities laws and filing fees with the SEC.

Under applicable rules and regulations under Regulation M under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the common stock may not simultaneously engage in market making activities, subject to certain exceptions, with respect to the common stock for a specified period set forth in Regulation M prior to the commencement of such distribution and until its completion.  In addition and with limiting the foregoing, the selling shareholders will be subject to the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M, which provisions may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the common stock by selling shareholders.  The foregoing may affect the marketability of the common stock offered hereby.

14




Each selling shareholder may be deemed to be an “underwriter” as such term is defined in the Securities Act, and any commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to any such person and any profits received on resale of the securities offered hereby may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act.

There can be no assurance that any selling shareholder will sell any or all of the common stock pursuant to this prospectus.  In addition, any common stock covered by this prospectus that qualifies for sale pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the shares of our common stock will be passed upon for us by Locke Liddell & Sapp LLP, Houston, Texas.

EXPERTS

The consolidated financial statements of Analytical Surveys, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2005 and 2004, and for the years then ended, have been incorporated by reference in this registration statement in reliance upon the report of Pannell Kerr Forster of Texas, P.C. (“PKF”), our independent registered public accounting firm, incorporated by reference herein, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

The report of PKF covering the September 30, 2005 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the Company has suffered significant operating losses in 2005 and prior years and does not currently have any external financing in place to fund working capital requirements, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Section 7-108-402 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act (the “Act”) provides, generally, that the articles of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director; except that any such provision may not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) acts specified in Section 7-108-403, or (iv) any transaction from which a director directly or indirectly derived an improper personal benefit. Such provision may not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the date on which such provision becomes effective. The Company’s articles of incorporation contain such a provision.

Section 7-109-103 of the Act provides, that a corporation organized under Colorado law shall be required to indemnify a person who is or was a director of the corporation or an individual who, while serving as a director of the corporation, is or was serving at the corporation’s request as a director, an officer, an agent, an associate, an employee, a fiduciary, a manager, a member, a partner, a promoter, or a trustee of, or to hold any similar position with, another domestic or foreign corporation or other person or of an employee benefit plan (a “Director”) of the corporation and who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative and whether formal or informal (a “Proceeding”), in which he was a party, against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with the Proceeding, unless such indemnity is limited by the corporation’s articles of incorporation.

Section 7-109-102 of the Act provides, generally, that a corporation may indemnify a person made a party to a Proceeding because the person is or was a Director against any obligation incurred with respect to a Proceeding to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, fine (including an excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan) or reasonable expenses incurred in the Proceeding if the person conducted himself or herself in good faith and the person reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in an official capacity with the corporation, the person’s conduct was in the corporation’s best interests and, in all other cases, his or her conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal proceedings, the person had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. A corporation may not indemnify a Director in connection with any Proceeding by or in the right of the corporation in which the Director was adjudged liable to the corporation or, in connection with any other Proceeding charging the Director derived an improper personal benefit, whether or not involving actions in an official capacity, in which Proceeding the Director was judged liable on the basis that he or she derived an improper personal benefit. Any indemnification permitted in connection with a Proceeding by or in the right of the corporation is limited to reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such Proceeding.

i




Under Section 7-109-107 of the Act, unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation, a corporation may indemnify an officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of the corporation to the same extent as a Director and may indemnify an officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent who is not a Director to a greater extent, if not inconsistent with public policy and if provided for by its bylaws, general or specific action of its board of directors or shareholders, or contract.

In addition, the Company’s articles of incorporation provide that each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any Proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans (an “indemnitee”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by the Act against all expense, liability and loss (including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith. Such indemnification shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that, with respect to Proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Company shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such Proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company.

The Company’s articles require that the Company maintain insurance to protect itself and any Director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or another corporation, partnership. joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Act.

The Company’s articles of incorporation provide that the Company shall indemnify any Director or officer, or former director or officer, or any person who may have served at its request as a director or officer of another corporation in which it owns shares of capital stock, or of which it is a creditor, and the personal representative of all such persons, against expenses actually and necessarily incurred by him in connection with the defense of any Proceeding in which he is made a party by reason of being or having been such director or officer, except in relation to matters as to which he shall be adjudged in such Proceeding, to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of duty; but such indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which such Director or officer may be entitled, under any by-law, agreement, vote of shareholders, or otherwise, nor shall anything herein contained restrict the right of the Company to indemnify or reimburse such person in any proper case, even though not specifically herein provided for.

Undertakings.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)    To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement (other than as provided in the note to Item 512(a)(1) of Regulation S-B): (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) 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 together, represent a fundamental change in the information 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 volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and (iii) to include any additional or changed material information in the plan of distribution.

(2)    That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment shall be treated as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering.

(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)    That, for the purpose of determining liability of the small business issuer under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities the undersigned small business issuer undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned small business issuer pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned small business issuer will b e a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: (i) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned small business issuer relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned small business issuer or used or referred to by the undersigned small business issuer; (iii) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned small business issuer or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned small business issuer; and (iv) any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned small business issuer to the purchaser.

(5)    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer 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 small business issuer 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

6.             Regulation D Offering.  The offer and issuance of the Securities to the Subscribers is being made pursuant to the exemption from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act afforded by Section 4(2) or Section 4(6) of the 1933 Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.  On the Closing Date, the Company will provide an opinion reasonably acceptable to Subscriber from the Company’s legal counsel opining on the availability of an exemption from registration under the 1933 Act as it relates to the offer and issuance of the Securities and other matters reasonably requested by Subscribers.  A form of the legal opinion is annexed hereto as Exhibit G.  The Company will provide, at the Company’s expense, such other legal opinions in the future as are reasonably necessary for the issuance and resale of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration.

7.1.          Conversion of Note.

(a)           Upon the conversion of a Note or part thereof at a time when the Note may be converted, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action, including obtaining and delivering, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent, so that the Company’s transfer agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of Subscriber (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by Subscriber and in such denominations to be specified at conversion representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.  The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the Company’s Common Stock and that, unless waived by the Subscriber and provided that Subscriber has complied with all preconditions set forth in this Agreement and the Note, the Shares will be free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain a legend restricting the resale or transferability of the Shares, provided the Subscriber represents that the Shares are or will be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement covering the Shares or exemption from registration, or are otherwise exempt from registration.

(b)           Subscriber will give notice of its decision to exercise its right to convert the Note and/or interest due to the Subscriber under the Note or part thereof, by telecopying an executed and completed Notice of Conversion (a form of which is annexed as Exhibit A to the Note) to the Company via confirmed telecopier transmission or otherwise pursuant to Section 14(a) of this Agreement.  The Subscriber will not be required to surrender the Note until the Note has been fully converted or satisfied.  Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is telecopied to the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion Date.  The Company will itself or cause the Company’s transfer agent to transmit the Company’s Common Stock certificates representing the Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note to the Subscriber via express courier for receipt by such Subscriber within four (4) business days after receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion (such fourth day being the “Delivery Date”).  In the event the Shares are electronically transferable, then delivery of the Shares must be made by electronic transfer provided request for such electronic transfer has been made by the Subscriber and the Subscriber has complied with all applicable securities laws in connection with the sale of the Common Stock, including, without limitation, the prospectus delivery requirements.   A Note representing the balance of the Note not so converted will be provided by the Company to the Subscriber if requested by Subscriber, provided the Subscriber delivers the original Note to the Company. In the event that a Subscriber elects not to surrender a Note for reissuance upon partial payment or conversion, the Subscriber hereby indemnifies the Company against any and all loss or damage attributable to a third-party claim in an amount in excess of the actual amount then due under the Note.  “Business day” and “trading day” as employed in the Transaction Documents is a day that the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading for three or more hours.

7




(c)           The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, or the Mandatory Redemption Amount described in Section 7.2 hereof, respectively after the Delivery Date or the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) could result in economic loss to the Subscriber.  As compensation to the Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to the Subscriber for late issuance of Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof upon Conversion of the Note in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date for each $10,000 of Note principal amount being converted of the corresponding Shares which are not timely delivered.  The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.  Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Subscriber, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Shares by the Delivery Date or make payment by the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, the Subscriber may revoke all or part of the relevant Notice of Conversion or rescind all or part of the notice of Mandatory Redemption by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and the Subscriber shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice, except that the liquidated damages described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.

(d)           Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law.  In the event that the rate of interest or dividends or damages required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to the Subscriber and thus refunded to the Company.

7.2.          Mandatory Redemption at Subscriber’s Election.  In the event (i) the Company is prohibited from issuing Shares, (ii) the Company fails to timely deliver Shares on a Delivery Date, (iii) upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default (as defined in the Note or in this Agreement), any of the foregoing that continues for more than thirty (30) business days, (iv) a Change in Control (as defined below), or (v) of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, then at the Subscriber’s election, the Company must pay to the Subscriber ten (10) business days after request by the Subscriber (“Calculation Period”), a sum of money determined by multiplying up to the outstanding principal amount of the Note designated by the Subscriber by 120%, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon (“Mandatory Redemption Payment”). The Mandatory Redemption Payment must be received by the Subscriber on the same date as the Shares otherwise deliverable or within ten (10) business days after request, whichever is sooner (“Mandatory Redemption Payment Date”). Upon receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, the corresponding Note principal and interest will be deemed paid and no longer outstanding.  Liquidated damages calculated pursuant to Section 7.1(c) hereof, that have been paid or accrued for the ten day period prior to the actual receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment by the Subscriber shall be credited against the Mandatory Redemption Payment.  For purposes of this Section 7.2, “Change in Control” shall mean (i) the Company no longer having a class of shares publicly traded or listed on a Principal Market, (ii) the Company becoming a Subsidiary of another entity (other than a corporation formed by the Company for purposes of reincorporation in another U.S. jurisdiction), and (iii) the sale, lease or transfer of substantially all the assets of the Company or Subsidiaries.

7.3.          Maximum Conversion.  The Subscriber shall not be entitled to convert on a Conversion Date that amount of the Note in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the Subscriber and its Affiliates on a Conversion Date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Note with respect to which the determination of this provision is being made on a Conversion Date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Subscriber and its Affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company on such Conversion Date.  Beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Subscriber shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of only 4.99% and aggregate conversions by the Subscriber may exceed 4.99%.  The Subscriber may waive the conversion limitation described in this Section 7.3, in whole or in part, upon and effective after 61 days prior written notice to the Company to increase such percentage to up to 9.99%, but not in excess of 9.99%.  The Subscriber may decide whether to convert a Note or exercise Warrants to achieve an actual 4.99% or up to 9.99% ownership position as described above, but not in excess of 9.99%.  The Company shall not be liable to the Subscriber for complying with the provisions of this section.

7.4.          Injunction Posting of Bond.  In the event a Subscriber shall elect to convert a Note or part thereof or exercise the Warrant in whole or in part, the Company may not refuse conversion or exercise based on any claim that such Subscriber or any one associated or affiliated with such Subscriber has been engaged in any violation of law, or for any other reason, unless, an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of such Note or exercise of all or part of such Warrant shall have been sought and obtained by the Company or at the Company’s request or with the Company’s assistance, and the Company has posted a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of 120% of the outstanding principal and interest of the Note, or aggregate purchase price of the Shares and Warrant Shares which are sought to be subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains judgment in Subscriber’s favor.

7.5.          Buy-In.  In addition to any other rights available to the Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to the Subscriber such shares issuable upon conversion of a Note by the Delivery Date and if after six (6) business days after the Delivery Date the Subscriber or a

8




broker on the Subscriber’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Subscriber of the particular shares of Common Stock which the Subscriber was entitled to receive upon such conversion (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Subscriber) the amount by which (A) the Subscriber’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate principal and/or interest amount of the Note for which such conversion was not timely honored, together with interest thereon at a rate of 10% per annum, accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty).  For example, if the Subscriber purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of $10,000 of note principal and/or interest, the Company shall be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. The Subscriber shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In.

 

7.6           Adjustments.   The Conversion Price, Warrant exercise price and amount of Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants shall be adjusted as described in this Agreement, the Notes and Warrants.

7.7.          Redemption.    The Securities shall not be redeemable or mandatorily convertible except as described in the Note and Warrants.

8.             Broker/Legal Fees.

(a)           Broker’s Commission.   The Company on the one hand, and each Subscriber (for himself only) on the other hand, agrees to indemnify the other against and hold the other harmless from any and all liabilities to any persons claiming brokerage commissions or similar fees other than the entities identified on Schedule 8, (each a “Broker”) on account of services purported to have been rendered on behalf of the indemnifying party in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and arising out of such party’s actions.  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, each Subscriber is providing indemnification only for such Subscriber’s own actions and not for any action of any other Subscriber.  The Company agrees that it will pay the Broker the fee set forth on Schedule 8 (“Broker’s Fees”).  The Company represents that there are no other parties entitled to receive fees, commissions, or similar payments in connection with the offering described in this Agreement except the Broker.

(b)           Legal Fees.   The Company shall pay to Grushko & Mittman, P.C., a cash fee of $32,500 (“Legal Fees”) (of which $10,000 has been paid) as reimbursement for services rendered to the Subscribers in connection with this Agreement and the purchase and sale of the Notes and Warrants (the “Offering”).  The Legal Fees and reimbursement for estimated UCC search fees, if any, (less any amounts paid prior to Closing) to be paid by the Company will be payable on the Closing Date out of funds held pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

9.             Covenants of the Company.  The Company covenants and agrees with the Subscribers as follows:

(a)           Stop Orders.  The Company will advise the Subscribers, within two hours after the Company receives notice of issuance by the Commission, any state securities commission or any other regulatory authority of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending any offering of any securities of the Company, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Common Stock of the Company for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for any such purpose.

(b)           Listing.  If applicable, the Company shall promptly secure the listing of the shares of Common Stock and the Warrant Shares upon each national securities exchange, or electronic or automated quotation system upon which they are or become eligible for listing and shall maintain such listing so long as any Notes or Warrants are outstanding.  The Company will maintain the listing or quotation of its Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange, NCM, Nasdaq National Market System, OTC Bulletin Board, or New York Stock Exchange (whichever of the foregoing is at the time the principal trading exchange or market for the Common Stock (the “Principal Market”)), and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Principal Market, as applicable. The Company will provide the Subscribers copies of all notices it receives notifying the Company of the threatened and actual delisting of the Common Stock from any Principal Market.  As of the date of this Agreement, the NCM is the Principal Market.

(c)           Market Regulations.  If applicable, the Company shall notify the Commission, the Principal Market and applicable state authorities, in accordance with their requirements, of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall take all other necessary action and proceedings as may be required and permitted by applicable law, rule and regulation, for the legal and valid issuance of the Securities to the Subscribers and promptly provide copies thereof to Subscriber.

(d)           Filing Requirements.  From the date of this Agreement and until the sooner of (i) two (2) years after the Closing Date, or (ii) until all the Shares and Warrant Shares have been resold or transferred by all the Subscribers pursuant to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144, without regard to volume limitations, the Company will (A) cause its Common Stock to continue to be registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the 1934 Act, (B) comply in all respects with its reporting and filing obligations under the 1934

(e)           Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds of the Offering will be employed by the Company for the purposes set forth on Schedule 9(e) hereto.  Except as set forth on Schedule 9(e), the Purchase Price may not and will not be used for accrued and unpaid officer and director salaries, payment of financing related debt, redemption of outstanding notes or equity instruments of the Company, litigation related expenses or settlements, brokerage fees, nor non-trade obligations outstanding on a Closing Date.  For so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will not prepay any financing related debt obligations, nor redeem any equity instruments of the Company.

(f)            Reservation.   Prior to the Closing Date, the Company undertakes to reserve, pro rata, on behalf of the Subscribers from its authorized but unissued common stock, a number of common shares equal to 150% of the amount of Common Stock necessary to allow each Subscriber to be able to convert all Notes issuable pursuant to this Agreement and interest thereon and reserve 100% of the amount of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.  Failure to have sufficient shares reserved pursuant to this Section 9(f) shall be a material default of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and an Event of Default under the Note.

The Exclusion Period will be tolled during the pendency of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note).

(o)           Blackout.    The Company undertakes and covenants that until the end of the Exclusion Period, the Company will not enter into any acquisition, merger, exchange or sale or other transaction that could have the effect of delaying the effectiveness of any pending registration statement or causing an already effective registration statement to no longer be effective or current.

(p)           Non-Public Information.  The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf will provide any Subscriber or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Subscriber shall have agreed in writing to receive such information.  The Company understands and confirms that each Subscriber shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.  In any event, the Company will offer to the Subscriber an opportunity to review and comment on the Registration Statement thereto between three and five business days prior to the proposed filing date thereof.

(q)           Offering Restrictions.   Until the expiration of the Exclusion Period, except for the Excepted Issuances, the Company will not enter into an agreement to nor issue any equity, convertible debt or other securities convertible into Common Stock or equity of the Company nor modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding at anytime, without the prior written consent of the Subscribers, which consent may be withheld for any reason.  Provided the Approval has been obtained, the foregoing restriction will not apply after the expiration of the Exclusion Period.   For so long as Notes or Warrants remain outstanding, the Company will not enter into any equity line of credit or similar agreement, nor issue nor agree to issue any floating or variable priced equity linked instruments nor any of the foregoing or equity with price reset rights.  The restriction described in the previous sentence shall not apply after the Registration Statement has been effective for 365 calendar days provided the Approval has been obtained.

(r)            Negative Covenants.   So long as the Notes are outstanding, without the consent of the Subscribers, the Company will not and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to directly or indirectly:

(i)            create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any pledge, hypothecation, assignment, deposit arrangement, lien, charge, claim, security interest, security title, mortgage, security deed or deed of trust, easement or encumbrance, or preference, priority or other security agreement or preferential arrangement of any kind or nature whatsoever (including any lease or title retention agreement, any financing lease having substantially the same economic effect as any of the foregoing, and the filing of, or agreement to give, any financing statement perfecting a security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code or comparable law of any jurisdiction) (each, a “Lien”) upon any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired except for (i) the Excepted Issuances (as defined in Section 12(a) hereof), (ii) (a) Liens imposed by law for taxes that are not yet due or are being contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; (b) carriers’, warehousemen’s, mechanics’, material men’s,

11




repairmen’s and other like Liens imposed by law, arising in the ordinary course of business and securing obligations that are not overdue by more than 30 days or that are being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings; (c) pledges and deposits made in the ordinary course of business in compliance with workers’ compensation, unemployment insurance and other social security laws or regulations; (d) deposits to secure the performance of bids, trade contracts, leases, statutory obligations, surety and appeal bonds, performance bonds and other obligations of a like nature, in each case in the ordinary course of business; (e) Liens created with respect to the financing of the purchase of new property in the ordinary course of the Company’s business up to the amount of the purchase price of such property, or (f) easements, zoning restrictions, rights-of-way and similar encumbrances on real property imposed by law or arising in the ordinary course of business that do not secure any monetary obligations and do not materially detract from the value of the affected property (each of (a) through (f), a “Permitted Lien”) and (iii) indebtedness for borrowed money which is not senior or pari passu in right of payment to the payment of the Notes;

(ii)           amend its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or its charter documents so as to adversely affect any rights of the Subscriber;

(iii)          except for dividends on Series A Convertible Stock outstanding on the Closing Date, repay, repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire or make any dividend or distribution in respect of any of its Common Stock, preferred stock, or other equity securities other than to the extent permitted or required under the Transaction Documents; or

(iv)          engage in any transactions with any officer, director, employee or any Affiliate of the Company, 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, in each case in excess of $10,000 other than (i) for payment of salary or consulting fees for services rendered, (ii) reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Company, and (iii) for other employee benefits, including stock option agreements under any stock option plan of the Company.

10.           Covenants of the Company and Subscriber Regarding Indemnification.

(a)           The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Subscribers, the Subscribers’ officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, control persons, and principal shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Subscriber or any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by Company or material breach of any warranty by Company in this Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or other agreement delivered pursuant hereto; or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any material breach or default in performance by the Company of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by the Company hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and Subscriber relating hereto.

(b)           Each Subscriber agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company and each of the Company’s officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, control persons against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company or any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by such Subscriber in this Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or other agreement delivered pursuant hereto; or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any material breach or default in performance by such Subscriber of any  covenant or undertaking to be performed by such Subscriber hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and Subscribers, relating hereto.

(c)           In no event shall the liability of any Subscriber or permitted successor hereunder or under any Transaction Document or other agreement delivered in connection herewith be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Subscriber upon the sale of Registrable Securities (as defined herein).

(d)           The procedures set forth in Section 11.6 shall apply to the indemnification set forth in Sections 10(a) and 10(b) above.

11.1.        Registration Rights.  The Company hereby grants the following registration rights to holders of the Securities.

(i)            On one occasion, for a period commencing one hundred and thirty-one (131) days after the Closing Date, but not later than two (2) years after the Closing Date, upon a written request therefor from any record holder or holders of more than 50% of the Shares issued and issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Notes and outstanding Warrant Shares, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement under the 1933 Act registering the Registrable Securities, as defined in Section 11.1(iv) hereof, which are the subject of such request for unrestricted public resale by the holder thereof.  For purposes of Sections 11.1(i) and 11.1(ii), Registrable Securities shall not include Securities which are (A) registered for resale in an effective registration statement, (B) included for registration in a pending registration statement, or  (C) which have been issued without further transfer restrictions after a sale or transfer

12




pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act.  Upon the receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly give written notice to all other record holders of the Registrable Securities that such registration statement is to be filed and shall include in such registration statement Registrable Securities for which it has received written requests within ten (10) days after the Company gives such written notice.  Such other requesting record holders shall be deemed to have exercised their demand registration right under this Section 11.1(i).

(ii)           If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the 1933 Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders or both, except with respect to registration statements on Forms S-4, S-8 or another form not available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public, provided the Registrable Securities are not otherwise registered for resale by the Subscribers or Holder pursuant to an effective registration statement, each such time it will give at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice to the record holder of the Registrable Securities of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of the holder, received by the Company within ten (10) days after the giving of any such notice by the Company, to register any of the Registrable Securities not previously registered, the Company will cause such Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included with the securities to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent required to permit the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered by the holder of such Registrable Securities (the “Seller” or “Sellers”). In the event that any registration pursuant to this Section 11.1(ii) shall be, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of common stock of the Company, the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced by the managing underwriter if and to the extent that the Company and the underwriter shall reasonably be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company therein; provided, however, that the Company shall notify the Seller in writing of any such reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, or Section 11.4 hereof, the Company may withdraw or delay or suffer a delay of any registration statement referred to in this Section 11.1(ii) without thereby incurring any liability to the Seller.

(iii)          If, at the time any written request for registration is received by the Company pursuant to Section 11.1(i), the Company has determined to proceed with the actual preparation and filing of a registration statement under the 1933 Act in connection with the proposed offer and sale for cash of any of its securities for the Company’s own account and the Company actually does file such other registration statement, such written request shall be deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 11.1(ii) rather than Section 11.1(i), and the rights of the holders of Registrable Securities covered by such written request shall be governed by Section 11.1(ii).

(iv)          The Company shall file with the Commission a Form S-3 registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) (or such other form that it is eligible to use) in order to register the Registrable Securities for resale and distribution under the 1933 Act within forty-five (45) calendar days after the Closing Date (the “Filing Date”), and cause to be declared effective not later than one hundred and thirty (130) calendar days after the Closing Date (the “Effective Date”).  The Company will register not less than a number of shares of common stock in the aforedescribed registration statement that is equal to 150% of the Shares issuable upon conversion of all of the Notes issuable to the Subscribers, and 100% of the Warrant Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement upon exercise of the Warrants (collectively the “Registrable Securities”). The Registrable Securities shall be reserved and set aside exclusively for the benefit of each Subscriber and Warrant holder, pro rata, and not issued, employed or reserved for anyone other than each such Subscriber and Warrant holder.  The Registration Statement will immediately be amended or additional registration statements will be immediately filed by the Company as necessary to register additional shares of Common Stock to allow the public resale of all Common Stock included in and issuable by virtue of the Registrable Securities.  Except with the written consent of the Subscribers, no securities of the Company other than the Registrable Securities will be included in the Registration Statement.  It shall be deemed a Non-Registration Event if at any time after the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission (“Actual Effective Date”) the Company has registered for unrestricted resale on behalf of the Subscribers  fewer than 125% of the amount of Common Shares issuable upon full conversion of all sums due under the Notes and 100% of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

11.2.        Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of Section 11.1(i), 11.1(ii) or 11.1(iv) to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

(a)           subject to the timelines provided in this Agreement, prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement required by Section 11, with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided), promptly provide to the holders of the Registrable Securities copies of all filings and Commission letters of comment and notify Subscribers (by telecopier and by e-mail addresses provided by Subscribers) and Grushko & Mittman, P.C. (by telecopier and by email to Counslers@aol.com) on or before the first business day thereafter that the Company receives notice that (i) the Commission has no comments or no further comments on the Registration Statement, and (ii) the registration statement has been declared effective (failure to timely provide notice as required by this Section 11.2(a) shall be a material breach of the Company’s obligation and an Event of Default as defined in the Notes and a Non-Registration Event as defined in Section 11.4 of this Agreement);

(b)           prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until such registration statement has been effective for a period of two (2) years, and comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all of the

13




Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with the Sellers’ intended method of disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period;

(c)           furnish to the Sellers, at the Company’s expense, such number of copies of the registration statement and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably may request in order to facilitate the public sale or their disposition of the securities covered by such registration statement or make them electronically available;

(d)           use its commercially reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of New York and such jurisdictions as the Sellers shall request in writing, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(e)           if applicable, list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed;

(f)            notify the Subscribers within two hours of the Company’s becoming aware that a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing or which becomes subject to a Commission, state or other governmental order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement covering any of the Registrable Securities;

(g)           provided same would not be in violation of the provision of Regulation FD under the 1934 Act, make available for inspection by the Sellers,  and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Seller or underwriter, all publicly available, non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all publicly available, non-confidential information reasonably requested by the seller, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement; and

(h)           provide to the Sellers copies of the Registration Statement and amendments thereto five business days prior to the filing thereof with the Commission.

11.3.        Provision of Documents.  In connection with each registration described in this Section 11, each Seller will furnish to the Company in writing such information and representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws.

11.4.        Non-Registration Events.  The Company and the Subscribers agree that the Sellers will suffer damages if the Registration Statement is not filed by the Filing Date and not declared effective by the Commission by the Effective Date, and any registration statement required under Section 11.1(i) or 11.1(ii) is not filed within 60 days after written request and declared effective by the Commission within 120 days after such request, and maintained in the manner and within the time periods contemplated by Section 11 hereof, and it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision.  Accordingly, if (A) the Registration Statement is not filed on or before the Filing Date, (B) is not declared effective on or before the Effective Date, (C) due to the action or inaction of the Company the Registration Statement is not declared effective within three (3) business days after receipt by the Company or its attorneys of a written or oral communication from the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be reviewed or that the Commission has no further comments, (D) if the registration statement described in Sections 11.1(i) or 11.1(ii) is not filed within 60 days after such written request, or is not declared effective within 120 days after such written request, or (E) any registration statement described in Sections 11.1(i), 11.1(ii) or 11.1(iv) is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective without being succeeded within fifteen (15) business days by an effective replacement or amended registration statement or for a period of time which shall exceed thirty (30) days in the aggregate per year (defined as every rolling period of 365 consecutive days commencing on the Actual Effective Date (each such event referred to in clauses A through E of this Section 11.4 is referred to herein as a “Non-Registration Event”), then the Company shall deliver to the holder of Registrable Securities, as Liquidated Damages, an amount equal to two percent (2%) for each thirty (30) days (or such lesser pro-rata amount for any period of less than thirty (30) days) of the Purchase Price of the outstanding Notes and purchase price of Shares issued upon conversion of the Notes owned of record by such holder which are subject to such Non-Registration Event.  The Company must pay the Liquidated Damages in cash.  The Liquidated Damages must be paid within ten (10) days after the end of each thirty (30) day period or shorter part thereof for which Liquidated Damages are payable.  In the event a Registration Statement is filed by the Filing Date but is withdrawn prior to being declared effective by the Commission, then such Registration Statement will be deemed to have not been filed and Liquidated Damages will be calculated accordingly.  All oral or written comments received from the Commission relating to the Registration Statement must be satisfactorily responded to within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of comments from the Commission.  Failure to timely respond to Commission comments is a Non-Registration Event for which Liquidated Damages shall accrue and be payable by the Company to the holders of Registrable Securities at the same rate set forth above.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be liable to the Subscriber under this Section 11.4 for any events or delays occurring as a consequence of the acts or omissions of the

14




Subscribers contrary to the obligations undertaken by Subscribers in this Agreement.  Liquidated Damages will not accrue nor be payable pursuant to this Section 11.4 nor will a Non-Registration Event be deemed to have occurred for times during which Registrable Securities are transferable by the holder of Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the 1933 Act.

11.5.        Expenses.  All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Section 11, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses (if required), fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., transfer taxes, and fees of transfer agents and registrars, are called “Registration Expenses.” All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities are called “Selling Expenses.”  The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration statement under Section 11.  Selling Expenses in connection with each registration statement under Section 11 shall be borne by the Seller and may be apportioned among the Sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold by the Seller relative to the number of shares sold under such registration statement or as all Sellers thereunder may agree.

11.6.        Indemnification and Contribution.

(a)           In the event of a registration of any Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 11, the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, each officer of the Seller, each director of the Seller, each underwriter of such Registrable Securities thereunder and each other person, if any, who controls such Seller or underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Seller, or such underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities was registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 11, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances when made, and will subject to the provisions of Section 11.6(c) reimburse the Seller, each such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to the Seller to the extent that any such damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus if (i) the Seller failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus delivered by the Company to the Seller with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by the Seller to the person asserting the claim from which such damages arise, (ii) the final prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission, or (iii) to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such Seller, or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus.

(b)           In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 11, each Seller severally but not jointly will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act, each officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director of the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 11, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that the Seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to such Seller, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such Seller specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus, and provided, further, however, that the liability of the Seller hereunder shall be limited to the net proceeds actually received by the Seller from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement.

(c)           Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party other than under this Section 11.6(c) and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 11.6(c), except and only if and to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the

15




indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 11.6(c) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties, as a group, shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.

(d)           In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the event of joint liability under the 1933 Act in any case in which either (i) a Seller, or any controlling person of a Seller, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 11.6 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 11.6 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the 1933 Act may be required on the part of the Seller or controlling person of the Seller in circumstances for which indemnification is not provided under this Section 11.6; then, and in each such case, the Company and the Seller will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that the Seller is responsible only for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in any such case, (y) the Seller will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such securities sold by it pursuant to such registration statement; and (z) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

11.7.        Delivery of Unlegended Shares.

(a)           Within four (4) business days (such fourth business day being the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Date”) after the business day on which the Company has received (i) a notice that Shares or Warrant Shares or any other Common Stock held by a Subscriber have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, (ii) a representation that the prospectus delivery requirements, or the requirements of Rule 144, as applicable and if required, have been satisfied, and (iii) the original share certificates representing the shares of Common Stock that have been sold, and (iv) in the case of sales under Rule 144, customary representation letters of the Subscriber and/or Subscriber’s broker regarding compliance with the requirements of Rule 144, the Company at its expense, (y) shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver to its transfer agent (with copies to Subscriber) an appropriate instruction and opinion of such counsel, directing the delivery of shares of Common Stock without any legends including the legend set forth in Section 4(h) above, reissuable pursuant to any effective and current Registration Statement described in Section 11 of this Agreement or pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act (the “Unlegended Shares”); and (z) cause the transmission of the certificates representing the Unlegended Shares together with a legended certificate representing the balance of the submitted Shares certificate, if any, to the Subscriber at the address specified in the notice of sale, via express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.

(b)           In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, if the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, upon request of a Subscriber, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and the Subscriber 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 Unlegended Shares by crediting the account of Subscriber’s prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system.  Such delivery must be made on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.

(c)           The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11 hereof later than two business days after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date could result in economic loss to a Subscriber.  As compensation to a Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payment fees (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to the Subscriber for late delivery of Unlegended Shares in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date for each $10,000 of purchase price of the Unlegended Shares subject to the delivery default.  If during any 360 day period, the Company fails to deliver Unlegended Shares as required by this Section 11.7 for an aggregate of thirty (30) days, then each Subscriber or assignee holding Securities subject to such default may, at its option, require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Shares and Warrant Shares subject to such default at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) 120%, or (ii) a fraction in which the numerator is the highest closing price during the aforedescribed thirty day period and the denominator of which is the lowest conversion price during such thirty day period, multiplied by the Purchase Price of such Common Stock and Warrant Shares (“Unlegended Redemption Amount”).  The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.

(d)           In addition to any other rights available to a Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to a Subscriber Unlegended Shares as required pursuant to this Agreement, within six (6) business days after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date and the Subscriber or a broker on the Subscriber’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of common stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Subscriber of the particular shares of Common Stock which the Subscriber was entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Subscriber) the amount by which (A) the Subscriber’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of common stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares together with interest thereon at a rate of 10% per annum, accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty).  For example, if a Subscriber purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to $10,000 of purchase price of shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, the Company shall be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. The Subscriber shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In.

(e)           In the event a Subscriber shall request delivery of Unlegended Shares as described in Section 11.7 and the Company is required to deliver such Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11.7, the Company may not refuse to deliver Unlegended Shares based on any claim that such Subscriber or any one associated or affiliated with such Subscriber has been engaged in any violation of law, or for any other reason, unless, an injunction or temporary restraining order from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining delivery of such Unlegended Shares or exercise of all or part of said Warrant shall have been sought and obtained by the Company or at the Company’s request or with the Company’s assistance, and the Company has posted a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of 120% of the amount of the aggregate purchase price of the Common Stock and Warrant Shares which are subject to the injunction or temporary restraining order, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains judgment in Subscriber’s favor.

(f)            The liquidated and other damages described in this Section 11.7 are not intended to duplicate the liquidated and other damages set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement.

12.                                 Right of First Refusal/Favored Nations Provision/Maximum Exercise of Rights.

(a)           Right of First Refusal.   Until one year after the Closing Date, the Subscribers shall be given not less than seven (7) business days prior written notice of any proposed sale by the Company of its common stock or other securities or debt obligations, except in connection with (i) full or partial consideration in connection with a strategic merger, acquisition, consolidation or purchase of substantially all of the securities or assets of corporation or other entity which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights, (ii) the Company’s issuance of securities in connection with strategic license agreements and other partnering arrangements so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights, (iii) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or the issuances or grants of options to purchase Common Stock pursuant to stock option plans and employee stock purchase plans described on Schedule 5(d) hereto at prices equal to or higher than the closing price of the Common Stock on the issue date of any of the foregoing, (iv) as a result of the exercise of Warrants or conversion of Notes which are granted or issued pursuant to this Agreement or that have been issued prior to the Closing Date, the issuance of which has been disclosed in a Report filed not less than five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, and (v) the payment of any interest on the Notes and liquidated damages or other damages pursuant to the Transaction Documents or other securities instruments that have been issued prior to the Closing Date, the issuance of which has been disclosed in a Report filed not less than five days prior to the Closing Date (collectively the foregoing are “Excepted Issuances”).  The Subscribers who exercise their rights pursuant to this Section 12(a) shall have the right during the seven (7) business days following receipt of the notice to purchase such offered common stock, debt or other securities in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the notice of sale in the same proportion to each other as their purchase of Notes in the Offering.  In the event such terms and conditions are modified during the notice period, the Subscribers shall be given prompt notice of such modification and shall have the right during the seven (7) business days following the notice of modification to exercise such right.

(b)           Favored Nations Provision.   Other than in connection with the Excepted Issuances, if at any time Notes or Warrants are outstanding, the Company shall offer, issue or agree to issue any common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding) to any person or entity at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than the Conversion Price in respect of the Shares, or if less than the Warrant exercise price in respect of the Warrant Shares, without the consent of each Subscriber holding Notes, Shares, Warrants, or Warrant Shares, then the Company shall issue, for each such occasion, additional shares of Common Stock to each Subscriber so that the average per share purchase price of the shares of Common Stock issued to the Subscriber (of only the Common Stock or Warrant Shares still owned by the Subscriber) is equal to such other lower price per share and the Conversion Price and Warrant exercise price shall automatically be adjusted to such other lower price and as provided in the Notes and the Warrants.  The average Purchase Price of the Shares and average exercise price in relation to the Warrant Shares shall be calculated separately for the Shares and Warrant Shares.  The foregoing calculation and issuance shall be made separately for Shares received upon conversion and separately for Warrant Shares.  The delivery to the Subscriber of the additional shares of Common Stock shall be not later than the closing date of the transaction giving rise to the requirement to issue

17




additional shares of Common Stock.  The Subscriber is granted the registration rights described in Section 11 hereof in relation to such additional shares of Common Stock except that the Filing Date and Effective Date vis-à-vis such additional common shares shall be, respectively, the thirtieth (30th) and sixtieth (60th) date after the closing date giving rise to the requirement to issue the additional shares of Common Stock.  For purposes of the issuance and adjustment described in this paragraph, the issuance of any security of the Company carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in the issuance of the additional shares of Common Stock upon the sooner of the agreement to or actual issuance of such convertible security, warrant, right or option and again at any time upon any subsequent issuances of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the Conversion Price or Warrant exercise price in effect upon such issuance.  The rights of the Subscriber set forth in this Section 12 are in addition to any other rights the Subscriber has pursuant to this Agreement, the Note, any Transaction Document, and any other agreement referred to or entered into in connection herewith.  The Subscriber is also given the right to elect to substitute any term or terms of any other offering in connection with which the Subscriber has rights as described in Section 12(a), for any term or terms of the Offering in connection with Securities owned by Subscriber as of the date the notice described in Section 12(a) is required to be given to Subscriber.  The Company will not issue any Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents if such issuance could or would cause the Company not to be in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rules unless approval of the Company’s shareholders would otherwise be required.  The provisions of this Section 12(b) shall has been obtained or if the Company does not comply with its obligations under Sections 9(n), 9(q), 9(r) or 12(a) of this Agreement.

 

(c)           Maximum Exercise of Rights.   In the event the exercise of the rights described in Sections 12(a) and 12(b) would or could result in the issuance of an amount of common stock of the Company that would exceed the maximum amount that may be issued to a Subscriber calculated in the manner described in Section 7.3 of this Agreement, then the issuance of such additional shares of common stock of the Company to such Subscriber will be deferred in whole or in part until such time as such Subscriber is able to beneficially own such common stock without exceeding the applicable maximum amount set forth calculated in the manner described in Section 7.3 of this Agreement.  The determination of when such common stock may be issued shall be made by each Subscriber as to only such Subscriber.

13.           Approval.   The Company will use its best efforts to obtain the approval of its shareholders so as to be able to fulfill the intent and purpose of the Transaction Documents without such fulfillment violating the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.  The Company will seek the obtain the approval of its shareholders at a meeting to be conducted not later than 120 calendar days after the Closing Date (“Approval Date”) for each of the following, which collectively is the “Approval”: (i) ratification of all of the terms of the Transaction Documents, (ii) the approval of the issuance of all of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Class C, Class D and Class E Warrants, (iii) the reduction of the Conversion Price of the Notes to 85% of the closing bid price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the trading day preceding the Closing Date, (iv) the issuance of all of the Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes, (v) the specific approval of the provisions of Section 12(b) of this Agreement, Section 2.1(c) of the Notes, and Section 3.4 of the Warrants and the issuance of Common Stock and reduction of the Conversion Price and Warrant exercise prices as described therein.  Not later than the first business day after the Approval has been obtained, the Company must provide to the Subscribers a certificate signed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer that the Approval has been obtained.  The Company must notify the Subscribers not later than the first business day after the Company has determined that the Approval cannot reasonably be timely obtained or that the Company has abandoned its efforts to obtain the Approval.

(d)           Law Governing this Agreement.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction.  Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be brought only in the civil or state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in New York County.  The parties and the individuals executing this Agreement and other agreements referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith on behalf of the Company agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive trial by jury.  The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs.  In the event that any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law.  Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.

(e)           Specific Enforcement, Consent to Jurisdiction.  To the extent permitted by law, the Company and Subscriber acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to one or more preliminary and final injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity.  Subject to Section 14(d) hereof, each of the Company, Subscriber and any signator hereto in his personal capacity hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction in New York of such court, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Nothing in this Section shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(f)            Damages.   In the event the Subscriber is entitled to receive any liquidated damages pursuant to the Transactions, the Subscriber may elect to receive the greater of actual damages or such liquidated damages.

Issue Date: May 31, 2006

 

ANALYTICAL SURVEYS, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Colorado (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for value received, LONGVIEW FUND, L.P., 600 Montgomery Street, 44th Floor, San Francisco, CA 94111, Telecopier Number (415) 981-5301 or its assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company at any time commencing six months after the Issue Date until 5:00 p.m., E.S.T on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Issue Date (the “Expiration Date”), 1,580,944 fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at a per share purchase price of $1.186 [100% of the closing bid price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the trading day preceding the Closing Date].  The aforedescribed purchase price per share, as adjusted from time to time as herein provided, is referred to herein as the “Purchase Price.”  The number and character of such shares of Common Stock and the Purchase Price are subject to adjustment as provided herein.  The Company may reduce the Purchase Price without the consent of the Holder provided ten days prior notice of such reduction is given to the Holder.  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), dated May 31, 2006, entered into by the Company and initial Holder of this Warrant.

As used herein the following terms, unless the context otherwise requires, have the following respective meanings:

(a)           The term “Company” shall mean Analytical Surveys, Inc. and any corporation which shall succeed or assume the obligations of Analytical Surveys, Inc. hereunder.

(c)           The term “Other Securities” refers to any stock (other than Common Stock) and other securities of the Company or any other person (corporate or otherwise) which the holder of the Warrant at any time shall be entitled to receive, or shall have received, on the exercise of the Warrant, in lieu of or in addition to Common Stock, or which at any time shall be issuable or shall have been issued in exchange for or in replacement of Common Stock or Other Securities pursuant to Section 5 or otherwise.

(d)           The term “Warrant Shares” shall mean the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

1.             Exercise of Warrant.

1.1.          Number of Shares Issuable upon Exercise.  From and after the Issue Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant in whole in accordance with the terms of subsection 1.2 or upon exercise of this Warrant in part in accordance with subsection 1.3, Common Stock of the Company, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4.  Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, unless the Company obtains the Approval (as defined in Section 13 of the Subscription Agreement), the maximum aggregate amount of Warrant Shares issuable upon the “for cash” exercise of some or all of this Warrant may not exceed the Allotted Shares (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), subject to adjustment as described in this Warrant.

1.2.          Full Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised in full by the Holder hereof by delivery of an original or facsimile copy of the form of subscription attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Subscription Form”) duly executed by such Holder and surrender of the original Warrant within four (4) days of exercise, to the Company at its principal office or at the office of its Warrant Agent (as provided hereinafter), accompanied by payment, in cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is then exercisable by the Purchase Price then in effect.

 

1




1.3.          Partial Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised in part (but not for a fractional share) by surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at the place provided in subsection 1.2 except that the amount payable by the Holder on such partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of whole shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the Subscription Form by (b) the Purchase Price then in effect.  On any such partial exercise, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder hereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Holder hereof or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, the whole number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised for the balance of.

1.4.          Fair Market Value. Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of a particular date (the “Determination Date”) shall mean:

(a)           If the Company’s Common Stock is traded on an exchange or is quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotation (“NASDAQ”), National Market System, the NASDAQ Capital Market or the American Stock Exchange, LLC, then the closing or last sale price, respectively, reported for the last business day immediately preceding the Determination Date;

(c)           Except as provided in clause (d) below, if the Company’s Common Stock is not publicly traded, then as the Holder and the Company agree, or in the absence of such an agreement, by arbitration in accordance with the rules then standing of the American Arbitration Association, before a single arbitrator to be chosen from a panel of persons qualified by education and training to pass on the matter to be decided; or

(d)           If the Determination Date is the date of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or any event deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant to the Company’s charter, then all amounts to be payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to the charter in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, plus all other amounts to be payable per share in respect of the Common Stock in liquidation under the charter, assuming for the purposes of this clause (d) that all of the shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of all of the Warrants are outstanding at the Determination Date.

1.5.          Company Acknowledgment. The Company will, at the time of the exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to such Holder any such rights.

1.6.          Trustee for Warrant Holders. In the event that a qualified bank or trust company shall have been appointed as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants pursuant to Subsection 3.2, such bank or trust company shall have all the powers and duties of a warrant agent (as hereinafter described) and shall accept, in its own name for the account of the Company or such successor person as may be entitled thereto, all amounts otherwise payable to the Company or such successor, as the case may be, on exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 1.

1.7.          Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc. on Exercise. The Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder hereof 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 payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within four (4) business days thereafter (“Warrant Share Delivery Date”), the Company at its expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder hereof, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share of Common Stock, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise.  The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Warrant Shares after the Warrant Share Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Holder.  As compensation to the Holder for such loss, the Company agrees to pay (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to the Holder for late issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant the amount of $100 per business day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date for each $10,000 of Purchase Price of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercised which are not timely delivered.  The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.  Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Holder, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Holder may revoke all or part of the relevant

 

2




Warrant exercise by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and the Holder shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the exercise of the relevant portion of this Warrant, except that the liquidated damages described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.

 

2.             Cashless Exercise.

(a)           Except as described below, if a Registration Statement (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) (“Registration Statement”) is effective and the Holder may sell its shares of Common Stock upon exercise hereof pursuant to the Registration Statement, this Warrant may be exercisable in whole or in part for cash only as set forth in Section 1 above.  If no such Registration Statement is available during the time that such Registration Statement is required to be effective pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement, payment upon exercise may be made at the option of the Holder either in cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate Purchase Price or commencing one year after the Issue Date, (i) by cashless exercise in accordance with Section (b) below or (ii) by a combination of any of the foregoing methods, for the number of shares of Common Stock specified in such form (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein.

(b)           If the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Purchase Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Subscription Form in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

X=Y (A-B)

 

 

 

A

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Where  X=

 

the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Y=

 

the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation)

 

 

 

 

 

A=

 

the average of the closing sale prices of the Common Stock for the five (5) Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Date

 

 

 

 

 

B=

 

Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)

 

(c)           The Holder may employ the cashless exercise feature described in Section (b) above only during the pendency of a Non-Registration Event as described in Section 11 of the Subscription Agreement.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement.

3.             Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.

3.1.          Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.  In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.

3.2.          Dissolution.  In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered the stock and

 

3




other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable in accordance with Section 3.1 by the Holder upon their exercise after the effective date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust company (a “Trustee”) having its principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the Holder.

 

3.3.          Continuation of Terms.  Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the Other Securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other Securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4.  In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transaction described in this Section 3, then only in such event will the Company’s securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrants be delivered to the Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2.

3.4           Share Issuance.  Until the Expiration Date, if the Company shall issue any Common Stock except for the Excepted Issuances (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), prior to the complete exercise of this Warrant for a consideration less than the Purchase Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issue, the Purchase Price shall be reduced to such other lower purchase price.  For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security or debt instrument of the Company carrying the right to convert such security or debt instrument into Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Purchase Price upon the issuance of the above-described security, debt instrument, warrant, right, or option if such issuance is at a price lower than the Purchase Price in effect upon such issuance.  The reduction of the Purchase Price described in this Section 3.4 is subject to the provisions of, and in addition to the other rights of the Holder described in, the Subscription Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall not apply unless the Approval is obtained.

4.             Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock.  In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.

5.             Certificate as to Adjustments.  In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).

6.             Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial Statements.   The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.  This Warrant entitles the Holder hereof to receive copies of all financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the holders of the Company’s Common Stock.

7.             Assignment; Exchange of Warrant.  Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a “Transferor”). On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor’s endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form”) and together with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the transfer of this Warrant will be in compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company at its expense, twice, only, but with payment by the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes, will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the

 

4




Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each a “Transferee”), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.  No such transfers shall result in a public distribution of the Warrant.

 

8.             Replacement of Warrant.  On 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 of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense, twice only, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

9.             Registration Rights.  The Holder of this Warrant has been granted certain registration rights by the Company.  These registration rights are set forth in the Subscription Agreement.  The terms of the Subscription Agreement are incorporated herein by this reference.

10.           Maximum ExerciseThe Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant on an exercise date, in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on an exercise date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this limitation is being made on an exercise date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock on such date.  For the 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-3 thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate exercises which would result in the issuance of more than 4.99%.  The restriction described in this paragraph may be waived, in whole or in part, upon sixty-one (61) days prior notice from the Holder to the Company to increase such percentage to up to 9.99%, but not in excess of 9.99%.  The Holder may decide whether to convert a Convertible Note or exercise this Warrant to achieve an actual 4.99% or up to 9.99% ownership position as described above, but not in excess of 9.99%.  The Company shall not be liable to the Holder for complying with the provisions of this section.

11.           Warrant Agent.  The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent (a “Warrant Agent”) for the purpose of issuing Common Stock on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such Warrant Agent.

12.           Transfer on the Company’s Books.  Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

13.           Warrant Exercise Compensation.   The Company has agreed to pay to Palladium Capital Advisers, LLC (“Broker”) Warrant Exercise Compensation as described in the Subscription Agreement equal to six percent (6%) of the cash proceeds payable to the Company upon exercise of the Warrant.  The Warrant Exercise Compensation will be paid by the Company to the Finder not later than the fifth (5th) business day after the Company receives cash proceeds from the exercise of this Warrant.  The Holder of the Warrant has no obligation or responsibility to pay Warrant Exercise Compensation

14.           Notices.   All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served, (ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, or facsimile, addressed as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice.  Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed effective (a) upon hand delivery or delivery by facsimile, with accurate confirmation generated by the transmitting facsimile machine, at the address or number designated below (if delivered on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received), or the first business day following such delivery (if delivered other than on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received) or (b) on the second business day following the date of mailing by express courier service, fully prepaid, addressed to such address, or upon actual receipt of such mailing, whichever shall first occur or (c) three business days after deposited in the mail if delivered pursuant to subsection (ii) above.  The addresses for such communications shall be: (i) if to the Company to: Analytical Surveys, Inc., 9725 Datapoint Drive, Suite 300B, San Antonio, Texas 78229, Attn: Lori A.

Analytical Surveys, Inc.

9725 Datapoint Drive, Suite 300B

San Antonio, Texas 78229

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for Analytical Surveys, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the filing of the Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) with respect to the registration of 752,072 shares (the “Shares”) of the Common Stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”), of the Company currently issuable upon exercise of certain outstanding warrants (the “Warrants”). All shares being registered are to be offered and sold by current or future stockholders of the Company (the “Selling Shareholders”).

In connection with the foregoing, we have examined or are familiar with the corporate records of the Company, including its Articles of Incorporation, as amended, the Bylaws and minutes of meetings of its directors and stockholders. We have also examined the Registration Statement of the Company, including the related prospectus and other attachments, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

We have assumed the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures on all original documents, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as copies and the due authorization, execution, delivery or recordation of all documents where due authorization, execution or recordation are prerequisites to the effectiveness thereof.

Based upon the foregoing, and having due regard for such legal considerations as we deem relevant, we are of the opinion that the Shares to be offered and sold by the Selling Shareholders under the Registration Statement, when issued in accordance with the exercise provisions of the Warrants, will be duly authorized and legally issued by the Company and fully paid and nonassessable.

The foregoing opinions are limited to the laws of the United States of America and the State of Texas. For purposes of this opinion, we assume that the Shares will be issued in compliance with all applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the statements made regarding our Firm and to the use of our name under the heading “Legal Matters” in the prospectus constituting a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

The Board of Directors

Analytical Surveys, Inc.:

We consent to incorporation by reference in Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-136078) of Analytical Surveys, Inc. (“the Company”) of our report dated December 7, 2005, relating to the consolidated balance sheets of Analytical Surveys, Inc. as of September 30, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years then ended, which report appears in the September 30, 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of Analytical Surveys, Inc., and to the reference to our firm under the heading “Experts” in the Registration Statement.

Our report contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the Company has suffered significant operating losses in 2005 and prior years and does not currently have any external financing in place to fund working capital  requirements, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Division of Corporation Finance

Securities & Exchange Commission

100 F. Street NE

Washington, D.C.  20549

Re:                               Analytical Surveys, Inc.
Form S-3, File No. 333-136078
Filed July 27, 2006

Dear Ms. Gowetski:

On behalf of Analytical Surveys, Inc. (“ASI” or the “Company”), this letter responds to the Staff’s comment letter of August 25, 2006, relating to Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-136078), which was filed with the Commission by the Company on July 27, 2006 (the “Registration Statement”).  Where applicable, the responses indicate the additions or revisions that have been included in Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement filed with the Commission on October 2, 2006, in response to the Staff’s August 25, 2006 letter and are numbered to correspond to the numbers assigned in the Staff’s letter.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings that are in the Registration Statement.  A marked copy of Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement (reflecting changes from the Registration Statement) has been provided supplementally with this response.

We respectfully request that the appropriate members of the Staff review the Registration Statement and our responses as reflected in this letter at their earliest convenience and advise us as to further comments, if any, as soon as possible.

General

1.                                       We note your disclosure in the footnote to the fee table that references the Annual Meeting scheduled to take place on August 17, 2006.  We further note the reference in the prospectus to the Annual Meeting scheduled to take place on August 29, 2006.  Please reconcile your disclosure throughout the prospectus, including the footnote to the fee table.




 

Response:             The Company is no longer seeking to register the shares referenced in the Main Table, except for the 752,072 shares issuable upon exercise of the Class E Warrants.  Accordingly, the references to shareholder approval and the annual meeting have been deleted throughout the Registration Statement.

2.                                       We note that among the 9,633,220 shares of common stock that you are registering, 8,881,148 are issuable only if approval of the issuance of such shares upon conversion of certain notes and exercise of certain warrants is given by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting scheduled to take place on August 29, 2006.  We further note the legal opinion filed as exhibit 5.1.  Please tell us how counsel can provide an opinion regarding the legality of the securities being registered when the shareholders have not yet approved  the issuance of 8,881,148 shares.

Response:  The Company is no longer seeking to register the 8,881,148 shares of common stock that were issuable only if approval of such issuance was given by shareholders at the Annual Meeting that took place on August 29, 2006.  The Company’s shareholders did not approve such issuances. Consequently, Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement seeks to register the 752,072 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Class E Warrants, and Exhibit 5.1 opines to the legality of only those shares being registered.

3.                                       Please provide an analysis comparing the proceeds to the issuer from the private placement against:

·                  all payments (whether in cash or securities, including securities underlying warrants or options) to be made to the investors, any affiliate of the investors, or any person with whom the investors have a contractual relationship regarding this transaction, including any payments to finders or placement agents; and

·                  the dollar value of the securities that are registered for resale.

Response:  Pursuant to discussions with the Staff, the Company has been asked to disclose the amount of common stock currently outstanding and the total of such common stock held by non-affiliates of the Company.  As of September 26, 2006, there are 3,779,256 shares of common stock outstanding, of which 3,771,302 shares are held by non-affiliates of the Company.  The Company is seeking to register under the Registration Statement, 752,072 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of Class E Warrants, which equals 19.9% of the Company’s total outstanding shares of common stock.

4.                                       Please provide an analysis comparing the number of shares underlying the convertible notes and warrants that are registered for resale to the number of outstanding shares held by persons other than the following:

·                  the investors;

2




·                  affiliates of the investors;

·                  any person with whom the investor has a contractual relationship regarding the transaction, including any payments made to finders or placement agents; and

·                  affiliates of the issuer

The calculation should not include any securities underlying any outstanding convertible securities, options or warrants.

Response:   Pursuant to discussions with the Staff, the Company has been asked to disclose the amount of common stock currently outstanding and the total of such common stock held by non-affiliates of the Company.  As of September 26, 2006, there are 3,779,256 shares of common stock outstanding, of which 3,771,302 shares are held by non-affiliates of the Company.  The Company is seeking to register under the Registration Statement, 752,072 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of Class E Warrants, which is 19.9% of the Company’s total outstanding shares of common stock.

The Private Placement, page 3

5.                                       We note your disclosure on page 3 that in exchange for $2 million in cash investment, the company issued to two investors a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $1.5 million and $.5 million, respectively.  Please revise your disclosure to identify the investors.

Response:  The Company notes the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure to identify Longview Fund, L.P. and Alpha Capital AG as the investors.

6.                                       Please expand your disclosure to discuss and quantify any discounts, fees, or expenses associated with the notes.

Response:  Pursuant to the terms of the Note, if the Company’s shareholder did not approve the issuance of an additional 8,881,148 shares of common stock that would be issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of certain warrants, the Investors had the right to accelerate the maturity date of the Note.  On September 19, 2006, the Investors notified the Company of its intent to accelerate the maturity date of the Note to October 19, 2006.  The Company has until October 19, 2006 to pay the principal amount of the Notes together with all accrued and unpaid interest.  Consequently, the Company believes that the disclosure requested by the Staff is no longer relevant to the Registration Statement and  respectfully requests that such disclosure not be required to be made in the Registration Statement.

Selling Shareholders, page 16

7.                                       Please identify all selling shareholders who are registered broker-dealers or affiliates of broker-dealers.  Additionally, tell us if the broker-dealer received the securities as

3




underwriting compensation.  Please note that a registration statement registering the resale of shares being offered by broker-dealers must identify the broker-dealers as underwriters if the shares were not issued as underwriting compensation.

Response:  The Company notes the Staff’s comment and has revised the Registration Statement to state that to the Company’s knowledge, neither of the selling shareholders are registered broker-dealers or affiliates of broker-dealers.

8.                                       We note your disclosure that each of the selling shareholders that is affiliated with a registered broker-dealer purchased the shares offered by the prospectus in the ordinary course of business and, at the time of purchase, did not have any plans to dispose of those shares.  If any selling shareholders are affiliates of broker-dealers, please provide an analysis supporting your position that the resale of securities by affiliates of broker-dealers is not an indirect primary offering.  Your analysis should address the following points:

·                  how long the selling shareholders have held the securities,

·                  the circumstances under which the selling shareholders received the securities,

·                  the selling shareholders’ relationship to the issuer,

·                  the amount of securities involved,

·                  whether the sellers are in the business of underwriting securities, and

·                  whether under all the circumstances it appears that the seller is acting as a conduit for the issuer.

Response:  The Company notes the Staff’s comment and has revised the Registration Statement to state that to the Company’s knowledge, neither of the selling sharehholders are registered broker-dealers or affiliates of broker-dealers.

Exhibits

9.                                      Please file executed copies of the notes, warrants, and related agreements as exhibits to the registration statement.  We note that you filed the forms of these agreements as exhibits to your Form 8-K dated June 5, 2006.  To the extent the terms of the agreements with the two investors are identical, you need only file a copy of one with a schedule identifying the other document omitted and setting forth the material details in which the omitted document differs.  Refer to Item 601(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

Response:  The Company notes the Staff’s comment and has provided an executed copy of the Class E Warrant as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.  Because the terms of the two Class E Warrants issued to the two investors are identical, the Company has only filed a copy of the Class E Warrant issued to Longview Fund, L.P., with a note in Item 16 to Exhibit 4.3 identifying the other document as omitted and setting forth the only material difference in the omitted document, the amount of shares for which the Class E Warrant may be exercised.  The Company is no longer seeking to register shares under the Registration Statement that would have been

4




issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the other warrants had the Company’s shareholders approved such issuances.

Please direct any comments or questions you may have regarding the foregoing to me at (713) 226-1496.
