Upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6(b), the Company shall promptly send written notice thereof, by hand delivery or by overnight delivery, to the holders of record of all of the Series A Preferred Stock at their addresses then shown on the records of the Company, which notice shall state that certificates evidencing shares of Series A Preferred Stock must be surrendered at the office of the Company (or of its transfer agent for the Common Stock, if applicable).

For purposes of this Section 6(c), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in the most recent of the following: (A) the Company’s most recent quarterly reports (Form 10-Q or Form 10-QSB), Annual Reports (Form 10-K or Form 10-KSB), or definitive proxy statement or information statement as filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (C) any other written notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.  Upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.  In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Series A Preferred Stock, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was publicly reported by the Company.

After the Effective Date, the Company shall, upon request of the Holder, deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Company under this Section electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing Company performing similar functions if the Company’s transfer agent has the ability to deliver shares of Common Stock in such manner. If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the third Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates thereafter, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Company shall immediately return the certificates representing the shares of Series A Preferred Stock tendered for conversion.

(ii)Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any or all of its Series A Preferred Stock, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with the Holder of has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason (other than the inability of the Company to issue shares of Common Stock as a result of the limitation set forth in Section 6(c) hereof) unless an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Series A Preferred Stock shall have been sought and obtained and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 150% of the Conversion Value of Series A Preferred Stock which is 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 Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of an injunction precluding the same, the Company shall issue Conversion Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 6(d)(i) within two Trading Days of the Share Delivery Date applicable to such conversion, the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $5,000 of Conversion Value of Series A Preferred Stock being converted, $50 per Trading Day (increasing to $100 per Trading Day after three (3) Trading Days and increasing to $200 per Trading Day six (6) Trading Days after such damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such certificates are delivered.

- 10 -

(iii)Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 6(d)(i) by a Share Delivery Date, and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock with respect to which the aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation is $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000.

The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid, nonassessable and, if the Conversion Shares Registration Statement is then effective under the Securities Act, registered for public sale in accordance with such Conversion Shares Registration Statement provided that the holder or its broker delivers confirmation to the Company or its transfer agent to the effect that the Conversion Shares have been sold pursuant to such registration statement.

- 11 -

(v)Fractional Shares. Upon a conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall not be required to issue stock certificates representing fractional shares of Common Stock. All fractional shares shall be carried forward and any fractional shares which remain after a Holder converts all of his or her Series A Preferred Stock shall be dropped and eliminated.

(vi)Transfer Taxes. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to the Holders thereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

(vii)Absolute Obligation. Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Statement of Designations shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the liquidated damages (if any) on, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

Section 7. Certain Adjustments.

(a)Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time subsequent to the Closing Date as long as the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding: (i) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this Series A Preferred Stock), (ii) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combine (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issue by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

(b)Price Adjustment. From and after the Closing Date and until such time as the Investors hold no Securities, except for (i) Exempt Issuances, (ii) issuances covered by Sections 7(a) and 7(c) hereof or (iii) an issuance of Common Stock upon exercise or upon conversion of warrants, options or other convertible securities for which an adjustment has already been made pursuant to this Section 7, as to all of which this Section 7(b) does not apply, if the Company closes on the sale or issuance of Common Stock at a price, or issues warrants, options, convertible debt or equity securities with a exercise price per share or conversion price which is less than the Conversion Price then in effect (such lower sales price, conversion or exercise price, as the case may be, being referred to as the “Lower Price”), the Conversion Price in effect from and after the date of such transaction shall be reduced to the Lower Price. For purpose of determining the exercise price of warrants issued by the Company, the price, if any, paid per share for the warrants shall be added to the exercise price of the warrants.

- 12 -

(c)Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time from and after the Closing Date and as long as the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders) evidences of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be determined by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holders of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.

(d)Calculations. All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. For purposes of this Section 7, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares and shares owned by subsidiaries, if any) actually issued and outstanding.

(e)Notice to Holders.

(i)Adjustment to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any of this Section 7, the Company shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. If the Company issues a variable rate security, despite the prohibition thereon in the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise price at which such securities may be converted or exercised in the case of a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), or the lowest possible adjustment price in the case of an MFN Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

(ii)Notices of Other Events. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the Common Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights; (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock or any Fundamental Transaction, (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company; then in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, and shall cause to be mailed to the Holders at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the stock books of the Company, at least 30 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification or Fundamental Transaction; provided, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.

- 13 -

(f)Exempt Issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment in the Conversion Price will be made in respect of an Exempt Issuance.

(g)Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then upon any subsequent conversion of this Series A Preferred Stock, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion absent such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of Common Stock (the “Alternate Consideration”). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Series A Preferred Stock following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall file a new Statement of Designations with the same terms and conditions and issue to the Holder new preferred stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to convert such preferred stock into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this paragraph (f)(iv) and insuring that this Series A Preferred Stock (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of this Statement of Designations, in the event that the agreement relating to a Fundamental Transaction provides for the conversion or exchange of the Series A Preferred Stock into equity or debt securities, cash or other consideration and the agreement is approved by the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, then the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have only the rights set forth in such agreement.

Section 8. Miscellaneous.

(a)Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holders hereunder, including, without limitation, any Notice of Conversion, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by facsimile, sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company, at its principal address as reflected in its most recent filing with the Commission.

(c)Next Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

(d)Headings. The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Statement of Designations and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.
