Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds

The Reporting Persons have purchased shares of the Company as follows:

    Pursuant to a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated June 30, 2000, Aequitas (then known as JMW Capital Partners, Inc.) acquired from the Company (i) two warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,066,000 shares of the common stock of the Company in exchange for $20,660 and (ii) a Subordinated Promissory Note in the principal amount of $400,000. Aequitas acquired the warrants described below as additional consideration for its $400,000 loan to the Company. In connection with the loan and the purchase of the warrants described herein, Aequitas has the right to appoint directors to fill two vacancies on the Company's Board of Directors. The two warrants give Aequitas the right to purchase an aggregate of 2,066,000 shares of the common stock of the Company, 1,033,000 shares of which may be purchased at an exercise price of $0.50 per share and 1,033,000 shares of which may be purchased at an exercise price of $0.38722 per share. The warrants are immediately exercisable and will remain exercisable until June 30, 2005. Certain of these warrants were extended until June 30, 2007, as more fully described below. In connection with this transaction, the Company and Aequitas entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated June 30, 2000 which provides Aequitas certain registration rights and contains a “market stand-off” provision. The forms of Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (Exhibit 99.5), Stock Purchase Warrant (Exhibit 99.3), Subordinated Promissory Note (Exhibit 99.2) and Registration Rights Agreement (Exhibit 99.4) which relate to the above-described transaction are filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D.

    On or about September 16, 2002, Aequitas assigned the warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,066,000 shares of the common stock of the Company to its shareholders as follows: (i) $0.38722 exercise price: Robert J. Jesenik—413,200 warrant shares; Dennis Wade—413,200 warrant shares; Brian A. Oliver—103,300 warrant shares; Thomas A. Sidley—103,300 warrant shares; and (ii) $0.50 exercise price: Robert J. Jesenik—413,200 warrant shares; Dennis Wade—413,200 warrant shares; Brian A. Oliver—103,300 warrant shares; Thomas A. Sidley—103,300 warrant shares. The forms of the Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Warrants issued to these individuals are filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D (Exhibit 99.6). Pursuant to an Agreement to Satisfy Obligations dated September 15, 2003 between the Company, Aequitas and Christenson Technology Services, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company (“CTS”), and in connection with the cancellation of certain debt owed by CTS to Aequitas, the Company agreed to extend the expiration date for exercise of the Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Warrants for Mr. Jesenik, Mr. Oliver and Mr. Sidley to June 30, 2007. The forms of the Second Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Warrants issued to these individuals are filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D (Exhibit 99.7).

    JMW MICG Holdings LLC purchased 545,455 common shares from the Company on September 16, 2002 for $120,000 for the purpose of investment. The purchase was effected pursuant to a Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated September 16, 2002 among the Company, R. Patrick Hanlin, Steven M. Wright, James F. Rippey, Dark Horse Comics, Inc., and JMW MICG Holdings, LLC, and filed as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D (Exhibit 99.8). JMW MICG Holdings LLC was dissolved on or about

  April 27, 2005 and all of these shares were distributed to the following members: NoiZe, LLC (98,946), Mike Martin (197,892), Seth A. Buechley (39,578), Andrew S. Craig (39,578), Michael L. Larson (39,578), Brian A. Oliver (19,789) and Aequitas Capital Management, Inc. (110,094).

  On or about September 15, 2005, NoiZe, LLC distributed to its members all of the 98,946 common shares of the Company received from JMW MICG Holdings LLC. At that time, Aequitas had a 1/6 (16.6667%) membership interest in NoiZe, LLC. As a result, Aequitas received (through its representative Robert J. Jesenik) 16,491 common shares of the Company.

    Aequitas received 45,455 common shares from the Company as a financing success fee related to the acquisition of Innovative Safety Technologies, LLC by the Company in September 2002.

As a result, JMW provided $750,000 of the total funds loaned to CVI and CLC provided $450,000. Pursuant to these participation agreements, Destination agreed to assign to JMW and CLC on a prorata basis all warrants required to be issued by the Company.

  The Business Loan Agreement was amended pursuant to a First Amendment of Business Loan Agreement dated October 1, 2004 which clarified the term of the warrants to be issued by the Company. Destination, CVI and the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement dated February 28, 2005 which permitted CVI to cure a payment default under the Business Loan Agreement and which provided for a decrease in the exercise price of the warrants to be issued to Destination in the event that all or any part of the outstanding loan balance was converted to stock of the Company at a price lower than $0.38 per common share equivalent.

CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. 7.1 ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT SHARES. The number, class and Exercise Price per share of securities for which this Warrant may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as hereinafter provided: (a) RECAPITALIZATION. If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and 5 - AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395913.1 including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (x) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (y) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable 6 - AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395913.1 securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. 7 - AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395913.1 (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c);

(e) OTHER IMPAIRMENTS.

Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT.

In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, transfer may only be made with the prior written consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and the Company may require the transferor to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred securities under the Securities Act; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent of the Company shall be required for the assignment or transfer of rights hereunder by a Holder to such assignor's or transferor's partners, shareholders or members or retired partners or former shareholders or members, if any, or for any other assignment or transfer to the spouse, ancestors, lineal descendants or siblings of such assignor or transferor, provided the transferee(s) certify to the Company that each is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and that it is acquiring the Securities solely for investment purposes.

CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. 7.1 ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT SHARES. The number, class and Exercise Price per share of securities for which this Warrant may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as hereinafter provided: (a) RECAPITALIZATION. If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and 5 - AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395913.1 including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (x) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (y) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable 6 - AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395913.1 securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. 7 - AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395913.1 (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c);

(e) OTHER IMPAIRMENTS. If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section 7.1(a)-(d) are not strictly applicable but are covered by the essential intent and principles of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company will appoint the firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing with the largest U.S. revenues for the prior year (but not the Company's regular auditors), which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Section 7.1, necessary to preserve the rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever an event occurs requiring any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly file with its Secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, a certificate of its President or Chief Financial Officer specifying such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the acts requiring such adjustment, and stating such other facts as shall be necessary to show the manner and figures used to compute such adjustment.

MISCELLANEOUS. 8.1 BINDING EFFECT; ASSIGNMENT. This Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and the Holder and their respective successors, heirs, legal representatives and permitted assigns. This Warrant and the Warrant Shares (collectively, "Securities") may only be disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from or in a transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable federal and state securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, transfer may only be made with the prior written consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and the Company may require the transferor to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred securities under the Securities Act; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent of the Company shall be required for the assignment or transfer of rights hereunder by a Holder to such assignor's or transferor's partners, shareholders or members or retired partners or former shareholders or members, if any, or for any other assignment or transfer to the spouse, ancestors, lineal descendants or siblings of such assignor or transferor, provided the transferee(s) certify to the Company that each is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and that it is acquiring the Securities solely for investment purposes.

The acceptance of a New Warrant by the transferee shall be deemed the acceptance of such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder to the office of the Company specified in Section 8.2, for one or more New Warrants evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder.

The Company agrees that, as long as this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will have duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock or other shares of capital stock of the Company as are from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and from time to time will take all steps necessary to amend its Articles of Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

Certain Adjustments. 7.1 Adjustment of Warrant Shares. The number, class and Exercise Price per share of securities for which this Warrant may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as hereinafter provided: (a) Recapitalization. If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) Merger or Reorganization, Etc. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) Adjustment for Dividends or Distributions of Stock or Other Securities or Property. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and 5 - SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395700.1 including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) Sale of Shares Below Exercise Price. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (x) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (y) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable 6 - SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395700.1 securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. 7 - SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395700.1 (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors;

(e) Other Impairments. If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section 7.1(a)-(d) are not strictly applicable but are covered by the essential intent and principles of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company will appoint the firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing with the largest U.S. revenues for the prior year (but not the Company's regular auditors), which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Section 7.1, necessary to preserve the rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever an event occurs requiring any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly file with its Secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, a certificate of its President or Chief Financial Officer specifying such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the acts requiring such adjustment, and stating such other facts as shall be necessary to show the manner and figures used to compute such adjustment. Such certificate shall be made available at 8 - SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395700.1 all reasonable times for inspection by the Holder. Promptly (but in no event more than 30 days) after each such adjustment, the Company shall give a copy of such certificate by certified mail to the Holder. Section 8. Miscellaneous. 8.1 Binding Effect; Assignment. This Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and the Holder and their respective successors, heirs, legal representatives and permitted assigns. This Warrant and the Warrant Shares (collectively, "Securities") may only be disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from or in a transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable federal and state securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, transfer may only be made with the prior written consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and the Company may require the transferor to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred securities under the Securities Act; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent of the Company shall be required for the assignment or transfer of rights hereunder by a Holder to such assignor's or transferor's partners, shareholders or members or retired partners or former shareholders or members, if any, or for any other assignment or transfer to the spouse, ancestors, lineal descendants or siblings of such assignor or transferor, provided the transferee(s) certify to the Company that each is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and that it is acquiring the Securities solely for investment purposes.

Upon any such transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a "New Warrant"), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of a New Warrant by the transferee shall be deemed the acceptance of such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder to the office of the Company specified in Section 8.2, for one or more New Warrants evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder.

("JMW") to act on behalf of MICROFIELD GRAPHICS, INC., (the "Company"), pursuant to the attached Agreement, dated July 17, 2002, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless JMW, its affiliates, and each of their respective partners, directors, officers, agents, consultants, employees and controlling persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933) (JMW and each such other person or entity are hereinafter referred to as an "Indemnified Person"), from and against any losses, claims, damages, expenses and liabilities or actions in respect thereof (collectively, "Losses"), as they may be incurred (including all legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing, defending, paying, settling or compromising any Losses, whether or not in connection with any pending or threatened litigation in which any Indemnified Person is named a party) to which any of them may become subject and which are related to or arise out of any act, omission, transaction or event contemplated by the Agreement. The Company will not, however, be responsible under the foregoing provisions with respect to any Losses to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final judgment that such Losses resulted primarily from actions taken or omitted to be taken by an Indemnified Person due to his gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. If the indemnity referred to in this Exhibit A should be, for any reason whatsoever, unenforceable, unavailable or otherwise insufficient to hold each Indemnified Person harmless, the Company shall pay to or on behalf of each Indemnified Person contributions for Losses so that each Indemnified Person ultimately bears only a portion of such Losses as is appropriate (i) to reflect the relative benefits received by each such Indemnified Person, respectively, on the one hand and the Company on the other hand in connection with the transaction or (ii) if the allocation on that basis is not permitted by applicable law, to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of each such Indemnified Person, respectively, and the Company as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate contribution of all Indemnified Persons to all Losses in connection with any transaction exceed the amount of the fee actually received by JMW pursuant to the Agreement. The respective relative benefits received by JMW and the Company in connection with any transaction shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the aggregate fee paid to JMW in connection with the transaction bears to the total consideration of the transaction. The relative fault of each Indemnified Person and the Company shall be determined by references to, among other things, whether the actions or omissions to act were by such Indemnified Person or the Company and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action or omission to act. The Company also agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability to the Company or its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or shareholders, directly or indirectly, related to or arising out of the Agreement, except Losses incurred by the Company which a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final judgment to have resulted primarily from actions taken or omitted to be taken by such Indemnified Person due to its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. In no event, regardless of the legal theory advanced, shall any Indemnified person be liable for any consequential, indirect, incidental or special damages of any nature. The Company agrees that without JMW's prior written consent it shall not settle any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceedings related to the Agreement unless the settlement also includes an express unconditional release of all Indemnified Persons from all liability and obligations arising therefrom. PDX/112816/141153/HHS/1386031.1 The obligations of the Company referred to above shall be in addition to any rights that any indemnified person may otherwise have and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of any Indemnified Person and the Company. It is understood that the obligations of the Company will remain operative regardless of any termination or completion of JMW's services. JMW CAPITAL PARTNERS, INC. MICROFIELD GRAPHICS, INC.

B. The Company and Holders desire to provide for registration rights and lock-up provisions set forth herein. AGREEMENT: NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. Company Registration. 1.1 REGISTRABLE SECURITIES. For purposes of this Agreement, "Registrable Securities" means the Stock or other securities issued or issuable with respect to the Stock upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event; provided, however, that shares of Stock or other securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and so long as they have not been (A) sold or otherwise transferred to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, or (B) sold or otherwise transferred in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions and restrictive legends with respect thereto are removed upon the consummation of such sale. Registerable Securities sold or otherwise transferred without strict compliance of the terms of this Agreement or otherwise in breach of this Agreement shall not have any benefits under this Agreement unless and until such terms have been strictly complied with or such breach has been cured. 1 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395131.1 1.2 PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION RIGHTS. If at any time or from time to time after expiration of the period set forth in Section 10.1 and prior to the fifth anniversary of this Agreement, the Company shall decide to register any of its securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than (x) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or (y) a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction, the Company will: (a) promptly give to the Holder written notice thereof, and (b) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company by the Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. 1.3 UNDERWRITING. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holder as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 1.2(a). In such event, the right of the Holder to registration pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting, to the extent requested, to the extent provided herein. The Holder shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting (the "Other Participating Holders")) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting, on a pro rata basis based on the total number of securities (including, without limitation, Registrable Securities) requested to be registered pursuant to registration rights granted to the Holder and the Other Participating Holders by the Company. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to the Holder or the Other Participating Holders to the nearest one hundred (100) shares. If the Holder or any Other Participating Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it, he or she may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration, and shall not be transferred in a public distribution prior to one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto. 1.4 RIGHT TO TERMINATE REGISTRATION. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. 2 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395131.1 2. Registration. 2.1 RIGHT TO DEMAND REGISTRATION. Following the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement and prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of this Agreement and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 2.2, if any Holder of Registrable Securities requests that the Company file a registration statement for a public offering of Registrable Securities, the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, would exceed $500,000, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 to register the Registrable Securities for such an offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be registered for the offering on such form. 2.2 LIMITATION OF REGISTRATION. A Holder shall only have the rights set forth in Section 2.1 if the Holder previously elected to register all of such Holder's Registrable Securities as provided in Section 1.2(b), less than 50% of Holder's Registrable Securities were registered as required by the managing underwriter, and the Holder has not elected to exercise Holder's registration rights under this Section 2 more than once previously. 2.3 NOTICE. The Company will (i) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders and (ii) as soon as practicable use its best efforts to effect such registration (including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company. The substantive provisions of Section 1 shall be applicable to each registration initiated under this Section 2. 2.4 EXCEPTIONS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to this Section 2: (i) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; (ii) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective date of, a registration statement (other than with respect to a registration statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction, an offering solely to employees or any other registration which is not appropriate for the registration of Registrable Securities), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; (iii) in any calendar year after the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2 in such calendar year and each such registration has been declared or ordered effective and has remained effective for the period specified in Section 4 of this Agreement; and (iv) if the Company shall furnish to such Holder a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for registration statements to be filed in the near 3 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395131.1 future, then the Company's obligation to use its best efforts to file a registration statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days from the receipt of the request to file such registration by such Holder or Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period. 3. Expenses of Registration. 3.1 REGISTRATION EXPENSES. "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Sections 1 and 2 hereof, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, escrow fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding the compensation of regular employees of the Company which shall be paid in any event by the Company). 3.2 COMPANY'S OBLIGATION TO PAY. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 1 and up to one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof under Section 2, and, at the Holder's option (i) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to all holders of securities of the Company exercising registration rights in any such registration or (ii) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to the Holder in any such registration, shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the attorney fees related to such special legal counsel referred to in clause (ii) borne by the Company shall in no event exceed $5,000 in any calendar year. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement above and beyond one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof, and the cost of any counsel for the Holder in any such registration, shall be borne by the Holder. If a registration proceeding is begun upon the request of the Holder pursuant to Section 1.3 (if the first request under Section 2 in any calendar year), but such request is subsequently withdrawn, then the Holder may either: (i) bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed not to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement, or (ii) require the Company to bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement. The preceding sentence shall not apply if, at the time of such withdrawal, the Holder has learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the holder at the time of their request. 3.3 SELLING EXPENSES. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holder shall be borne by the Holder. For purposes of this Agreement, "Selling Expenses" shall mean all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes applicable to the securities registered by the Holders and all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holders (as limited by this Section 3). 4. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. In the case of each registration, qualification or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 4, the Company will: 4.1 REGISTRATION STATEMENT. Prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective until the distribution described in the 4 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395131.1 registration statement has been completed, but in no event longer than one hundred twenty (120) days. 4.2 AMENDMENTS.

Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act. 4.5 UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT. In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. 4.6 NOTICE. Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included 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 the light of the circumstances then existing. 4.7 SECURITIES EXCHANGE LISTING.

INDEMNIFICATION. 5.1 INDEMNIFICATION OF HOLDER. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, each of its officers and directors and partners, and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all actual out-of-pocket expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in any litigation or in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation or any alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or of any rule or regulation promulgated under any of the foregoing applicable to the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers and directors, and each person controlling such Holder, each such underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such matter if the settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder, controlling person or underwriter specifically for use therein. 5.2 INDEMNIFICATION OF THE COMPANY. Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other such Holder, each of its officers and directors and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all actual out-of-pocket expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged 6 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395131.1 untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such Holders, such directors, officers, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal and any other actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any matter if the settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that the maximum liability of each selling Holder under this Section 5.2 shall be equal to the net proceeds to such selling Holder as a result of such registration and offering. 5.3 INDEMNIFICATION NOTICE. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 5 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 5 unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. 5.4 CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid of payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions 7 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395131.1 that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that, in no event shall any contribution by a Holder under this Section 5.4 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 5.5 UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. 5.6 SURVIVAL. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 5 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 5, and otherwise. 6. INFORMATION BY HOLDER. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. 7. RULE 144 REPORTING. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the sale of the Stock to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to: (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date that the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act; (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and (c) so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to the Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company and other information in the possession of or reasonably obtainable by the Company as the Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing the Holder to sell any such securities without registration. 8. TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to the Holder under Sections 1 and 2 may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by the Holder (together with any affiliate); provided, however, that (a) such transfer shall be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, (b) notice of such assignment is given to the Company, (c) such transferee or assignee (i) is a wholly-owned subsidiary or limited liability company or constituent partner (including limited partners, retired partners, members of a limited 8 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395131.1 liability company, trustee of a trust established for the benefit of the Holder's family, spouses and ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such partners or spouses who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) of the Holder, or (ii) acquires from the Holder at least 10% of the Holder's Shares and (d) agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 9.

Once these shares are released as collateral, they will become subject to all the rights, obligations and restrictions set forth in this Agreement. 10.2 AUTHORIZED TRANSFER.

Payments shall be calculated and paid to Christopher on a monthly basis (within 30 days after the end of the prior month) and shall be subject to retroactive adjustment in the event it is subsequently determined that revenues were overstated due to customer disputes, mistakes or similar occurrences. Christenson will make an initial payment of $6,000 to Christopher upon execution of this Agreement which will be applied against the final monthly payment(s) due to Christopher. The monthly payment due with respect to the period ending the later of (i) December 31, 2005, or (ii) the date the Tax Liabilities referenced below have been paid, shall not be less than $6,000; if the $6,000 payment exceeds the payment otherwise due (0.7015% of gross revenues), the amount of the excess payment will be applied to reduce the final monthly payment(s) due to Christopher. In addition, until CE has satisfied certain outstanding payroll tax liabilities and Washington state excise tax liabilities in the approximate aggregate amount of $1,075,000 (the "Tax Liabilities"), the monthly payments shall not exceed $6,000. If the payment otherwise due for a month (0.7015% of gross revenues) before the Tax Liabilities have been satisfied exceeds $6,000, the excess amount shall accrue and be subsequently paid to Christopher ratably over the number of months remaining in the original 5-year payment period once the Tax Liabilities have been paid in full. Interest shall accrue after 90 days at the rate of 12% per annum on any payment that is past due. Christopher or his representatives may audit Christenson's and CE's records (once each year) to verify the payment amounts determined by Christenson to be due. If the audit discloses that the payments claimed to be due are 5% or more less than the correct amounts, Christenson shall be responsible for the cost of the audit. Christenson will provide Christopher with quarterly financial statements and (if available) audited annual financial statements for CE. 1.3 In the event that substantially all of the assets or stock of CE are sold pursuant to an agreement executed within the 4-year period beginning with the Effective Date, Christenson will pay to Christopher an amount equal to (a) Christopher's Percentage of the net after-tax (if any) sale proceeds received in connection with the sale after deducting transaction costs, and corporate obligations and debt of CE and CEAC other than liabilities or expenses attributable to consulting/success fees payable to JMW which have not been disclosed to Christopher, less (b) the amount of payments made to Christopher pursuant to Section 1.2 above. "Christopher's Percentage" means the percentage membership interest that Christopher would have in Christenson (currently 23.783%) at the time the sale is closed if Christopher and Kevin Robertson had retained their current number of membership units, taking into account future changes in the number of outstanding membership units of Christenson. Upon full payment of all amounts due under this Section 1.3, the payments to be made pursuant to Section 1.2 above will terminate. 2 - NOTE PAYMENT AND MEMBERSHIP INTEREST SALE AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386416.1 2.

The Series II Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock of the Corporation. 1 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395262.1 AGREEMENT: NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. Company Registration. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the registration rights provisions of this Agreement do not become effective until such time as a Holder converts the Series 2 Preferred Stock to common stock ("Stock") (the converted shares of common stock shall be hereinafter referred to as "Stock"). 1.1 Registrable Securities. For purposes of this Agreement, "Registrable Securities" means the Stock or other securities issued or issuable with respect to the Stock upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event; provided, however, that shares of Stock or other securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and so long as they have not been (A) sold or otherwise transferred to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, or (B) sold or otherwise transferred in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions and restrictive legends with respect thereto are removed upon the consummation of such sale. Registrable Securities sold or otherwise transferred without strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement or otherwise in breach of this Agreement shall not have any benefits under this Agreement unless and until such terms have been strictly complied with or such breach has been cured. 1.2 Piggyback Registration Rights. If at any time or from time to time after expiration of the period set forth in Section 10.1 and prior to the fifth anniversary of this Agreement, the Company shall decide to register any of its securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than (x) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or (y) a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction, the Company will: (a) promptly give to the Holder written notice thereof, and (b) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company by the Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. 1.3 Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holder as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 1.2(a). In such event, the right of the Holder to registration pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting, to the extent requested, to the extent provided herein. The Holder shall (together with the 2 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395262.1 Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting (the "Other Participating Holders")) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting, on a pro rata basis based on the total number of securities (including, without limitation, Registrable Securities) requested to be registered pursuant to registration rights granted to the Holder and the Other Participating Holders by the Company. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to the Holder or the Other Participating Holders to the nearest one hundred (100) shares. If the Holder or any Other Participating Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it, he or she may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration, and shall not be transferred in a public distribution prior to one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto. 1.4 Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. 2. Registration. 2.1 Right to Demand Registration. Following the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement and prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of this Agreement and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 2.2, if any Holder of Registrable Securities requests that the Company file a registration statement for a public offering of Registrable Securities, the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, would exceed $500,000, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 to register the Registrable Securities for such an offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be registered for the offering on such form. 2.2 Limitation of Registration. A Holder shall only have the rights set forth in Section 2.1 if the Holder previously elected to register all of such Holder's Registrable Securities as provided in Section 1.2(b), less than 50% of Holder's Registrable Securities were registered as required by the managing underwriter, and the Holder has not elected to exercise Holder's registration rights under this Section 2 more than once previously. 2.3 Notice. The Company will (i) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders and (ii) as soon as practicable use its best efforts to effect such registration (including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such 3 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395262.1 Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company. The substantive provisions of Section 1 shall be applicable to each registration initiated under this Section 2. 2.4 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to this Section 2: (i) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; (ii) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective date of, a registration statement (other than with respect to a registration statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction, an offering solely to employees or any other registration which is not appropriate for the registration of Registrable Securities), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; (iii) in any calendar year after the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2 in such calendar year and each such registration has been declared or ordered effective and has remained effective for the period specified in Section 4 of this Agreement; and (iv) if the Company shall furnish to such Holder a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for registration statements to be filed in the near future, then the Company's obligation to use its best efforts to file a registration statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days from the receipt of the request to file such registration by such Holder or Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period. 3. Expenses of Registration. 3.1 Registration Expenses. "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Sections 1 and 2 hereof, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, escrow fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding the compensation of regular employees of the Company which shall be paid in any event by the Company). 3.2 Company's Obligation to Pay. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 1 and up to one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof under Section 2, and, at the Holder's option (i) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to all holders of securities of the Company exercising registration rights in any such registration or (ii) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to the Holder in any such registration, shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the attorney fees related to such special legal counsel referred to in clause (ii) borne by the Company shall in no event exceed $5,000 in any calendar year. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement above and beyond one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof, and the cost of any counsel for the Holder in any such 4 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395262.1 registration, shall be borne by the Holder. If a registration proceeding is begun upon the request of the Holder pursuant to Section 1.3 (if the first request under Section 2 in any calendar year), but such request is subsequently withdrawn, then the Holder may either: (i) bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed not to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement, or (ii) require the Company to bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement. The preceding sentence shall not apply if, at the time of such withdrawal, the Holder has learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the holder at the time of their request. 3.3 Selling Expenses. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holder shall be borne by the Holder. For purposes of this Agreement, "Selling Expenses" shall mean all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes applicable to the securities registered by the Holders and all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holders (as limited by this Section 3). 4. Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration, qualification or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will: 4.1 Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective until the disposition described in the registration statement has been completed, but in no event longer than one hundred twenty (120) days. 4.2 Amendments. Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement. 4.3 Copies of Documents. Furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to the underwriters, if any, of the securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of such securities. 4.4 Blue Sky Registration. Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act. 4.5 Underwriting Agreement. In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and 5 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395262.1 customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. 4.6 Notice. Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included 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 the light of the circumstances then existing. 4.7 Securities Exchange Listing. Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange or other trading market on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed. 4.8 Transfer Agent and Registrar. Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration. 4.9 Legal Opinion and Comfort Letter. Use its best efforts to furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 4, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 4, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities. 5. Indemnification. 5.1 Indemnification of Holder. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, each of its officers and directors and partners, and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all actual out-of-pocket expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in any litigation or in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation or any alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or of any rule or regulation promulgated under any 6 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395262.1 of the foregoing applicable to the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers and directors, and each person controlling such Holder, each such underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such matter if the settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder, controlling person or underwriter specifically for use therein. 5.2 Indemnification of the Company. Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other such Holder, each of its officers and directors and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all actual out-of-pocket expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such Holders, such directors, officers, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal and any other actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any matter if the settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that the maximum liability of each selling Holder under this Section 5.2 shall be equal to the net proceeds to such selling Holder as a result of such registration and offering. 5.3 Indemnification Notice. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 5 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that 7 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395262.1 counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 5 unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. 5.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid of payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that, in no event shall any contribution by a Holder under this Section 5.4 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 5.5 Underwriting Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. 5.6 Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 5 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 5, and otherwise. 6. Information by Holder. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such 8 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395262.1 Holder or Holders as the Company may request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. 7. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the sale of the Stock to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to: (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date that the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act; (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and (c) so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to the Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company and other information in the possession of or reasonably obtainable by the Company as the Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing the Holder to sell any such securities without registration. 8. Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to the Holder under Sections 1 and 2 may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by the Holder (together with any affiliate); provided, however, that (a) such transfer shall be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, (b) notice of such assignment is given to the Company, (c) such transferee or assignee (i) is a wholly-owned subsidiary or limited liability company or constituent partner (including limited partners, retired partners, members of a limited liability company, trustee of a trust established for the benefit of the Holder's family, spouses and ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such partners or spouses who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) of the Holder, or (ii) acquires from the Holder at least 10% of the Holder's Shares and (d) agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 9. Termination of Rights. The rights of any particular Holder to cause the Company to register securities under Sections 1 and 2 shall terminate with respect to such Holder on the earlier of the fifth anniversary of the date of this Agreement, or at such time as Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act of 1933 is available for the sale of all such Holders securities during a three (3)-month period without registration. 10. Lock-up Agreement. 10.1 Lock-up. The Holders each agree that for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of this Agreement, they will not sell, hypothecate, assign, grant any option for the sale of, whether or not for consideration, directly or indirectly, the Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder may pledge its shares of the Series 2 Preferred Stock if the pledgee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Section 10. Provided, however, that once the Series 2 Preferred Stock has been converted, the right to pledge the Stock during this twelve (12)-month period shall cease and any Series 2 Preferred Stock that is pledged may not be converted to Common Stock until it is released from any such pledge. 9 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395262.1 10.2 Authorized Transfer. The Registrable Securities may be transferred by will, the laws of descent and distribution, the operation of law, or by order of any court of competent jurisdiction and proper venue. 10.3 Legend. A notice shall be placed on the face of each stock certificate of the Registrable Securities stating that the Registrable Securities are restricted in accordance with the conditions set forth on the reverse side of the certificate and a typed legend shall provide as follows: "The shares represented by this certificate are subject to certain sale and transfer restrictions until October 3, 2004, by an agreement between the security holder and issuer, which is on file with the issuer and the stock transfer agent from which a copy is available upon request and without charge." 11. Miscellaneous. 11.1 Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only upon the prior written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities. 11.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement is the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto as to the subject matter contained herein.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, whether written or oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. 11.3 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto whether so expressed or not. In addition, whether or not any express assignment has been made, the provisions of this Agreement which are for the benefit of purchasers or holders of Registrable Securities are also for the benefit of, and enforceable by, any subsequent holder of such Registrable Securities. 11.4 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement. 11.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts (including by means of telecopied signature pages), any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. 11.6 Governing Law.

McGRATH, KEVIN D. ROBERTSON, and BRIAN N. CHRISTOPHER (individually, "Holder," collectively, the "Holders"). RECITALS: A. The Holders collectively own the following shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock of the Company (the "Series 2 Preferred Stock"): Shares of Series 2 Holder Preferred Stock ------ ------------------ Elgie J. McGrath 119,048 JMW Group, LLC 601,429 Kevin D. Robertson 104,762 Brian N. Christopher 246,190 For purposes of this Agreement, Stock shall also include the shares of the Company's stock now owned or hereafter acquired by reason of purchase, exercise of warrants, conversion, division or otherwise, by the Holders. B. The Company and Holders desire to provide for registration rights and lock-up provisions set forth herein. C. The Series II Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock of the Corporation. AGREEMENT: NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. Company Registration. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the registration rights provisions of this Agreement do not become effective until such time as a Holder converts the Series 2 Preferred Stock to common stock ("Stock") (the converted shares of common stock shall be hereinafter referred to as "Stock"). 1.1 Registrable Securities. For purposes of this Agreement, "Registrable Securities" means the Stock or other securities issued or issuable with respect to the Stock upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event; provided, however, that shares of Stock or other securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and so long as they have not been (A) sold or otherwise transferred to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, or (B) sold or otherwise transferred in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions and restrictive legends with respect 1 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1397940.1 thereto are removed upon the consummation of such sale. Registrable Securities sold or otherwise transferred without strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement or otherwise in breach of this Agreement shall not have any benefits under this Agreement unless and until such terms have been strictly complied with or such breach has been cured. 1.2 Piggyback Registration Rights. If at any time or from time to time after expiration of the period set forth in Section 10.1 and prior to the fifth anniversary of this Agreement, the Company shall decide to register any of its securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than (x) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or (y) a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction, the Company will: (a) promptly give to the Holder written notice thereof, and (b) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company by the Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. 1.3 Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holder as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 1.2(a). In such event, the right of the Holder to registration pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting, to the extent requested, to the extent provided herein. The Holder shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting (the "Other Participating Holders")) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting, on a pro rata basis based on the total number of securities (including, without limitation, Registrable Securities) requested to be registered pursuant to registration rights granted to the Holder and the Other Participating Holders by the Company. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to the Holder or the Other Participating Holders to the nearest one hundred (100) shares. If the Holder or any Other Participating Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it, he or she may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration, and shall not be transferred in a public distribution 2 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1397940.1 prior to one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto. 1.4 Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. 2. Registration. 2.1 Right to Demand Registration. Following the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement and prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of this Agreement and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 2.2, if any Holder of Registrable Securities requests that the Company file a registration statement for a public offering of Registrable Securities, the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, would exceed $500,000, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 to register the Registrable Securities for such an offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be registered for the offering on such form. 2.2 Limitation of Registration. A Holder shall only have the rights set forth in Section 2.1 if the Holder previously elected to register all of such Holder's Registrable Securities as provided in Section 1.2(b), less than 50% of Holder's Registrable Securities were registered as required by the managing underwriter, and the Holder has not elected to exercise Holder's registration rights under this Section 2 more than once previously. 2.3 Notice. The Company will (i) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders and (ii) as soon as practicable use its best efforts to effect such registration (including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company. The substantive provisions of Section 1 shall be applicable to each registration initiated under this Section 2. 2.4 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to this Section 2: (i) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; (ii) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective date of, a registration statement (other than with respect to a registration statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction, an offering solely to employees or any other registration which is not appropriate for the 3 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1397940.1 registration of Registrable Securities), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; (iii) in any calendar year after the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2 in such calendar year and each such registration has been declared or ordered effective and has remained effective for the period specified in Section 4 of this Agreement; and (iv) if the Company shall furnish to such Holder a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for registration statements to be filed in the near future, then the Company's obligation to use its best efforts to file a registration statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days from the receipt of the request to file such registration by such Holder or Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period. 3. Expenses of Registration. 3.1 Registration Expenses. "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Sections 1 and 2 hereof, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, escrow fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding the compensation of regular employees of the Company which shall be paid in any event by the Company). 3.2 Company's Obligation to Pay. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 1 and up to one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof under Section 2, and, at the Holder's option (i) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to all holders of securities of the Company exercising registration rights in any such registration or (ii) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to the Holder in any such registration, shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the attorney fees related to such special legal counsel referred to in clause (ii) borne by the Company shall in no event exceed $5,000 in any calendar year. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement above and beyond one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof, and the cost of any counsel for the Holder in any such registration, shall be borne by the Holder. If a registration proceeding is begun upon the request of the Holder pursuant to Section 1.3 (if the first request under Section 2 in any calendar year), but such request is subsequently withdrawn, then the Holder may either: (i) bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed not to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement, or (ii) require the Company to bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement. The preceding sentence shall not apply if, at the time of such withdrawal, the Holder has learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the holder at the time of their request. 3.3 Selling Expenses. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holder shall be borne by the Holder. For purposes of this Agreement, "Selling Expenses" shall mean all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes 4 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1397940.1 applicable to the securities registered by the Holders and all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holders (as limited by this Section 3). 4. Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration, qualification or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will: 4.1 Registration Statement.

Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement. 4.3 Copies of Documents. Furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to the underwriters, if any, of the securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of such securities. 4.4 Blue Sky Registration. Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act. 4.5 Underwriting Agreement. In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. 4.6 Notice. Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included 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 the light of the circumstances then existing. 4.7 Securities Exchange Listing. Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange or other trading market on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed. 5 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1397940.1 4.8 Transfer Agent and Registrar. Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration. 4.9 Legal Opinion and Comfort Letter. Use its best efforts to furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 4, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 4, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities. 5.

Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other such Holder, each of its officers and directors and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all actual out-of-pocket expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such Holders, such directors, officers, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal and any other actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any matter if the settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that the maximum liability of each selling Holder under this Section 5.2 shall be equal to the net proceeds to such selling Holder as a result of such registration and offering. 5.3 Indemnification Notice. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 5 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 5 unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which 7 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1397940.1 does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. 5.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid of payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that, in no event shall any contribution by a Holder under this Section 5.4 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 5.5 Underwriting Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. 5.6 Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 5 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 5, and otherwise. 6. Information by Holder. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. 7. Rule 144 Reporting.

Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to the Holder under Sections 1 and 2 may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by the Holder (together with any affiliate); provided, however, that (a) such transfer shall be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, (b) notice of such assignment is given to the Company, (c) such transferee or assignee (i) is a wholly-owned subsidiary or limited liability company or constituent partner (including limited partners, retired partners, members of a limited liability company, trustee of a trust established for the benefit of the Holder's family, spouses and ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such partners or spouses who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) of the Holder, or (ii) acquires from the Holder at least 10% of the Holder's Shares and (d) agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 9.

Lock-up Agreement. 10.1 Lock-up. The Holders each agree that for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of this Agreement, they will not sell, hypothecate, assign, grant any option for the sale of, whether or not for consideration, directly or indirectly, the Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder may pledge its shares of the Series 2 Preferred Stock if the pledgee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Section 10. Provided, however, that once the Series 2 Preferred Stock has been converted, the right to pledge the Stock during this twelve (12)-month period shall cease and any Series 2 Preferred Stock that is pledged may not be converted to Common Stock until it is released from any such pledge. 10.2 Authorized Transfer. The Registrable Securities may be transferred by will, the laws of descent and distribution, the operation of law, or by order of any court of competent jurisdiction and proper venue. 10.3 Legend. A notice shall be placed on the face of each stock certificate of the Registrable Securities stating that the Registrable Securities are restricted in accordance with the conditions set forth on the reverse side of the certificate and a typed legend shall provide as follows: "The shares represented by this certificate are subject to certain sale and transfer restrictions until October 3, 2004, by an agreement between the security holder and issuer, which is on file with the issuer and the stock transfer agent from which a copy is available upon request and without charge." 9 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1397940.1 11.

Section 7. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. 7.1 ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT SHARES. The number, class and Exercise Price per share of securities for which this Warrant may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as hereinafter provided: (a) RECAPITALIZATION. If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately increased.

(b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation.

Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT.

The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant will be validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale (except encumbrances or restrictions arising under federal or state securities laws), and not subject to preemptive rights. The Company agrees that, as long as this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will have duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock or other shares of capital stock of the Company as are from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and from time to time will take all steps necessary to amend its Articles of Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

Section 7. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. 7.1 ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT SHARES. The number, class and Exercise Price per share of securities for which this Warrant may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as hereinafter provided: (a) RECAPITALIZATION. If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation.

Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT.

The Company agrees that, as long as this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will have duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock or other shares of capital stock of the Company as are from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and from time to time will take all steps necessary to amend its Articles of Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

Section 7. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. 7.1 ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT SHARES. The number, class and Exercise Price per share of securities for which this Warrant may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as hereinafter provided: (a) RECAPITALIZATION. If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT.

If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately increased.

(b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY.

(d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY.

(d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors. (e) OTHER IMPAIRMENTS. If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section 7.1(a)-(d) are not strictly applicable but are covered by the essential intent and principles of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company will appoint the firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing with the largest U.S. revenues for the prior year (but not the Company's regular auditors), which shall give its opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Section 7.1, necessary to preserve the rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever an event occurs requiring any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly file with its Secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, a certificate of its President or Chief Financial Officer specifying such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the acts requiring such adjustment, and stating such other facts as shall be necessary to show the manner and figures used to compute such adjustment.

If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors. (e) OTHER IMPAIRMENTS. If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section 7.1(a)-(d) are not strictly applicable but are covered by the essential intent and principles of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company will appoint the firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing with the largest U.S. revenues for the prior year (but not the Company's regular auditors), which shall give its opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Section 7.1, necessary to preserve the rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever an event occurs requiring any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly file with its Secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, a certificate of its President or Chief Financial Officer specifying such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the acts requiring such adjustment, and stating such other facts as shall be necessary to show the manner and figures used to compute such adjustment.

If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors. (e) OTHER IMPAIRMENTS. If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section 7.1(a)-(d) are not strictly applicable but are covered by the essential intent and principles of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company will appoint the firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing with the largest U.S. revenues for the prior year (but not the Company's regular auditors), which shall give its opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Section 7.1, necessary to preserve the rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever an event occurs requiring any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly file with its Secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, a certificate of its President or Chief Financial Officer specifying such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the acts requiring such adjustment, and stating such other facts as shall be necessary to show the manner and figures used to compute such adjustment.

If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors. (e) OTHER IMPAIRMENTS. If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section 7.1(a)-(d) are not strictly applicable but are covered by the essential intent and principles of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company will appoint the firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing with the largest U.S. revenues for the prior year (but not the Company's regular auditors), which shall give its opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Section 7.1, necessary to preserve the rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever an event occurs requiring any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly file with its Secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, a certificate of its President or Chief Financial Officer specifying such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the acts requiring such adjustment, and stating such other facts as shall be necessary to show the manner and figures used to compute such adjustment.

If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE. (i) If the Company shall issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock in a transaction not subject to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to issuance of such Additional Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1(d)) shall be adjusted 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 down to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the total computed under clause (x) below by the total computed under clause (y) below as follows: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the result obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (which shall include the actual number of shares outstanding plus all shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, warrants and options other than shares excluded from the definition of Additional Stock by Section 7.1(d)(vi)) by the Exercise Price then in effect, and (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such Additional Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issuance (including the shares deemed outstanding as provided in clause (x) above). (ii) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $0.01 per share; provided, however, that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made to the Exercise Price. Except as provided in Sections 7.1(d)(v)(C) and (D) below, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. (iii) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (iv) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (v) In the case of the issuance of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock except as provided in Section 7.1(d)(vi)(B)), the following provisions shall apply: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options, warrants, or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby, but no further 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights in accordance with their terms; (B) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were issued for a consideration equal to the consideration received, if any, by the Company for any such securities and any related options, warrants or rights, plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7.1(d)(iii) and (iv) above), but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; (C) if such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any change in the consideration payable to the Company or in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, including, without limitation, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue thereof, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such change becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities in accordance with their terms; and (D) upon the expiration of any such options, warrants or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options, warrants or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or securities or options, warrants or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, warrants or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options, warrants or rights related to such securities. (vi) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(v) above) by the Company after the Initial Exercise Date other than: (A) Common Stock issued in connection with a transaction described in Section 7.1(a), (b) or (c); 7 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1392287.1 (B) shares of Common Stock (and options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation, stock options assumed by the Company, or otherwise converted into stock options of the Company, pursuant to a merger or consolidation. (C) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued to financial institutions or equipment lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions not primarily for equity financing purposes and which have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (D) shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, issued in connection with business combinations or corporate partnering agreements approved by the Company's Board of Directors. (e) OTHER IMPAIRMENTS. If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section 7.1(a)-(d) are not strictly applicable but are covered by the essential intent and principles of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company will appoint the firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing with the largest U.S. revenues for the prior year (but not the Company's regular auditors), which shall give its opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Section 7.1, necessary to preserve the rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever an event occurs requiring any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly file with its Secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, a certificate of its President or Chief Financial Officer specifying such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the acts requiring such adjustment, and stating such other facts as shall be necessary to show the manner and figures used to compute such adjustment. Such certificate shall be made available at all reasonable times for inspection by the Holder.

Each Creditor represents that it is acquiring the Shares for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to distribution or resale and is aware that it must bear the economic risk of this investment for an indefinite period of time because the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Oregon Securities Law, and therefore, cannot be sold unless such Shares are subsequently registered under the Act and Law or exemptions from such registration apply. Each Creditor also acknowledges that based upon the representations contained herein, Microfield shall consider the purchased Shares to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Oregon Securities Law and accordingly will not register the same with the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Oregon Corporation Commissioner. Each Creditor agrees not to undertake any act which would either jeopardize the applicability of such exemptions or require the registration of such Shares at such time without first obtaining the opinion of counsel satisfactory to Corporation or Seller that the proposed act will not have such effect. 3.2 ACCREDITED INVESTORS. Each Creditor represents that it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. Each Creditor or its representative has had an opportunity to review the financial statements and financial information of Microfield and has had an opportunity to conduct its own independent investigation of the merits of investing in Microfield. 3.3 SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT.

This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts (including by means of telecopied signature pages), any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. 4.6 GOVERNING LAW.

For purposes of this Agreement, "Registrable Securities" means the Stock or other securities issued or issuable with respect to the Stock upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event; provided, however, that shares of Stock or other securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and so long as they have not been (A) sold or otherwise transferred to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, or (B) sold or otherwise transferred in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions and restrictive legends with respect thereto are removed upon the consummation of such sale. Registerable Securities sold or 1 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND LOCK-UP AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395579.1 otherwise transferred without strict compliance of the terms of this Agreement or otherwise in breach of this Agreement shall not have any benefits under this Agreement unless and until such terms have been strictly complied with or such breach has been cured. 1.2 Piggyback Registration Rights. If at any time or from time to time after expiration of the period set forth in Section 10.1 and prior to the fifth anniversary of this Agreement, the Company shall decide to register any of its securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than (x) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or (y) a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction, the Company will: (a) promptly give to the Holder written notice thereof, and (b) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company by the Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. 1.3 Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holder as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 1.2(a). In such event, the right of the Holder to registration pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting, to the extent requested, to the extent provided herein. The Holder shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting (the "Other Participating Holders")) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting, on a pro rata basis based on the total number of securities (including, without limitation, Registrable Securities) requested to be registered pursuant to registration rights granted to the Holder and the Other Participating Holders by the Company. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to the Holder or the Other Participating Holders to the nearest one hundred (100) shares. If the Holder or any Other Participating Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it, he or she may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration, and shall not be transferred in a public distribution prior to one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto. 2 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND LOCK-UP AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395579.1 1.4 Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. 2. Registration. 2.1 Right to Demand Registration. Following the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement and prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of this Agreement and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 2.2, if any Holder of Registrable Securities requests that the Company file a registration statement for a public offering of Registrable Securities, the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, would exceed $500,000, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 to register the Registrable Securities for such an offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be registered for the offering on such form. 2.2 Limitation of Registration. A Holder shall only have the rights set forth in Section 2.1 if the Holder previously elected to register all of such Holder's Registrable Securities as provided in Section 1.2(b), less than 50% of Holder's Registrable Securities were registered as required by the managing underwriter, and the Holder has not elected to exercise Holder's registration rights under this Section 2 more than once previously. 2.3 Notice. The Company will (i) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders and (ii) as soon as practicable use its best efforts to effect such registration (including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company. The substantive provisions of Section 1 shall be applicable to each registration initiated under this Section 2. 2.4 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to this Section 2: (i) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; (ii) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective date of, a registration statement (other than with respect to a registration statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction, an offering solely to employees or any other registration which is not appropriate for the registration of Registrable Securities), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; (iii) in any calendar year after the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2 3 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND LOCK-UP AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395579.1 in such calendar year and each such registration has been declared or ordered effective and has remained effective for the period specified in Section 4 of this Agreement; and (iv) if the Company shall furnish to such Holder a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for registration statements to be filed in the near future, then the Company's obligation to use its best efforts to file a registration statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days from the receipt of the request to file such registration by such Holder or Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period. 3. Expenses of Registration. 3.1 Registration Expenses. "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Sections 1 and 2 hereof, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, escrow fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding the compensation of regular employees of the Company which shall be paid in any event by the Company). 3.2 Company's Obligation to Pay. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 1 and up to one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof under Section 2, and, at the Holder's option (i) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to all holders of securities of the Company exercising registration rights in any such registration or (ii) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to the Holder in any such registration, shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the attorney fees related to such special legal counsel referred to in clause (ii) borne by the Company shall in no event exceed $5,000 in any calendar year. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement above and beyond one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof, and the cost of any counsel for the Holder in any such registration, shall be borne by the Holder. If a registration proceeding is begun upon the request of the Holder pursuant to Section 1.3 (if the first request under Section 2 in any calendar year), but such request is subsequently withdrawn, then the Holder may either: (i) bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed not to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement, or (ii) require the Company to bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement. The preceding sentence shall not apply if, at the time of such withdrawal, the Holder has learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the holder at the time of their request. 3.3 Selling Expenses. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holder shall be borne by the Holder. For purposes of this Agreement, "Selling Expenses" shall mean all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes applicable to the securities registered by the Holders and all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holders (as limited by this Section 3). 4 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND LOCK-UP AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395579.1 4. Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration, qualification or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 4, the Company will: 4.1 Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective until the distribution described in the registration statement has been completed, but in no event longer than one hundred twenty (120) days. 4.2 Amendments. Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement. 4.3 Copies of Documents. Furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to the underwriters, if any, of the securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of such securities. 4.4 Blue Sky Registration. Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act. 4.5 Underwriting Agreement. In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. 4.6 Notice. Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included 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 the light of the circumstances then existing. 4.7 Securities Exchange Listing. Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange or other trading market on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed. 4.8 Transfer Agent and Registrar. Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration. 5 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND LOCK-UP AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395579.1 4.9 Legal Opinion and Comfort Letter. Use its best efforts to furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 4, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 4, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities. 5. Indemnification. 5.1 Indemnification of Holder. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, each of its officers and directors and partners, and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all actual out-of-pocket expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in any litigation or in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation or any alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or of any rule or regulation promulgated under any of the foregoing applicable to the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers and directors, and each person controlling such Holder, each such underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such matter if the settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder, controlling person or underwriter specifically for use therein. 5.2 Indemnification of the Company. Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by 6 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND LOCK-UP AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395579.1 such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other such Holder, each of its officers and directors and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all actual out-of-pocket expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such Holders, such directors, officers, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal and any other actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any matter if the settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that the maximum liability of each selling Holder under this Section 5.2 shall be equal to the net proceeds to such selling Holder as a result of such registration and offering. 5.3 Indemnification Notice. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 5 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 5 unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. 7 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND LOCK-UP AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395579.1 5.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid of payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that, in no event shall any contribution by a Holder under this Section 5.4 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 5.5 Underwriting Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. 5.6 Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 5 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 5, and otherwise. 6. Information by Holder. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. 7. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the sale of the Stock to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to: (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date that the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act; (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and (c) so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to the Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company and other information in the possession of or reasonably obtainable by the Company as the Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing the Holder to sell any such securities without registration. 8 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND LOCK-UP AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1395579.1 8. Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to the Holder under Sections 1 and 2 may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by the Holder (together with any affiliate); provided, however, that (a) such transfer shall be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, (b) notice of such assignment is given to the Company, (c) such transferee or assignee (i) is a wholly-owned subsidiary or limited liability company or constituent partner (including limited partners, retired partners, members of a limited liability company, trustee of a trust established for the benefit of the Holder's family, spouses and ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such partners or spouses who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) of the Holder, or (ii) acquires from the Holder at least 10% of the Holder's Shares and (d) agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 9. Termination of Rights.

Lock-up Agreement. 10.1 Lock-up. The Holders each agree that for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of this Agreement, they will not sell, assign or grant any option for the sale of, whether or not for consideration, directly or indirectly, the Registrable Securities; provided, however, that any pledge of these shares requires that the pledgee and any subsequent transferee shall be subject to this Agreement. 10.2 Authorized Transfer. The Registrable Securities may be transferred by will, the laws of descent and distribution, the operation of law, or by order of any court of competent jurisdiction and proper venue. 10.3 Legend. A notice shall be placed on the face of each stock certificate of the Registrable Securities stating that the Registrable Securities are restricted in accordance with the conditions set forth on the reverse side of the certificate and a typed legend shall provide as follows: "The shares represented by this certificate are subject to certain sale and transfer restrictions until April 2, 2005, by an agreement between the security holder and issuer, which is on file with the issuer and the stock transfer agent from which a copy is available upon request and without charge." 11.

The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable on or before the second anniversary after the effective 1 - BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385177.1 date of this Agreement; provided, however, that after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal and all accrued interest shall be payable on demand. In addition, the outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable in the event of (1) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets or stock of Borrower, or (2) the transfer of ownership or beneficial interest, by merger or otherwise, of 25% or more of the stock of Borrower. d. EXTENSION OF MATURITY. Provided that no Event of Default is then continuing in effect, Borrower may elect to extend the scheduled maturity date of the Loan for up to an additional 6 months if Borrower demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender that Borrower is then involved in a specific transaction to raise additional capital in a sufficient amount to pay all of Borrower's Indebtedness and the transaction is reasonably expected to close within the extension period. Borrower shall give Lender notice of Borrower's intent to extend the maturity date at least 30 days prior to the scheduled maturity date and shall provide Lender with information requested to verify the capital raise transaction. As a condition of extending the maturity date, Borrower will pay Lender a renewal fee to be negotiated by Borrower and Lender and will continue to make monthly principal payments of $83,333 plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other payments required by this Agreement. The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid immediately upon the closing of Borrower's capital raise transaction. e. PREPAYMENT. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the date of the Loan and will not be subject to refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required by law. All or any portion of the Loan may be prepaid at any time. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule; early payments will reduce the outstanding principal balance due. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that payment constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of any disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to Lender at the address above. 3. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO EACH ADVANCE. Lender's obligations to make the initial Advance and each subsequent Advance under this Agreement shall be subject to the fulfillment to Lender's satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Related Documents. a. LOAN DOCUMENTS. Borrower shall execute and deliver or otherwise provide to Lender the following documents for the Loan: (1) the Note; (2) Security Agreements granting to Lender security interests in the Collateral; (3) financing statements and all other documents perfecting Lender's Security Interests; (4) evidence of insurance as required below; (5) guaranties; (6) subordinations or inter-creditor agreements; (7) together with all such 2 - BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385177.1 Related Documents as Lender may require for the Loan; all in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and Lender's counsel. b. AUTHORIZATIONS. Borrower shall have provided in form and substance satisfactory to Lender properly certified resolutions, duly authorizing the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Note and the Related Documents. In addition, Borrower shall have provided such other resolutions, authorizations, documents and instruments as Lender or its counsel may require. c. PAYMENT OF FEES AND EXPENSES. Borrower shall have paid to Lender all fees, charges and other expenses which are then due and payable as specified in this Agreement or any Related Document, including without limitation a fully-earned, non-refundable loan commitment fee for this credit facility in the amount of 2% of amounts actually loaned to Borrower; this fee shall be paid to Lender at the time of each Loan disbursement. Borrower will pay or reimburse Lender for all customary, ordinary and reasonable costs incurred by Lender in connection with the Loan based on actual documented costs. d. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, in the Related Documents, and in any document or certificate delivered to Lender under this Agreement are true and correct. e. NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. There shall not exist at the time of any Advance a condition which, with the passage of time or otherwise, would constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement or under any Related Document. f. STOCK WARRANTS. As additional consideration to Lender for making the Loan to Borrower, Borrower will cause its parent, Microfield, to issue and deliver to Lender a warrant or warrants to purchase common shares of Microfield. Beginning August 1, 2004, Lender shall be entitled to a warrant granting the right to purchase that number of shares, calculated on a monthly basis, equal to 12.5% of the principal balance of the Loan on the first day of each month that the Loan is outstanding. For example, if the principal balance of the Loan is $300,000 on August 1, $1,250,000 on September 1 and $2,000,000 on October 1, Lender is entitled to a warrant(s) for 443,750 shares. The warrant(s) will be delivered to Lender no later than the maturity date of the Loan as set forth in Section 2 above; however, Lender may require by notice to Borrower that a warrant or warrants be delivered prior to maturity, but not more frequently than every 3 months. The exercise price will be the lesser of $0.38 per share or the price applicable to any shares, warrants or options (excluding options granted to employees or directors) issued by Microfield while the Loan is outstanding. The warrants will be assignable by Lender, will permit a cashless exercise by the holder, and will provide for the most favorable registration rights for the shares subject to the warrants as have been granted to any current shareholder of Microfield. A cashless exercise means (1) payment through a "same day sale" commitment from the holder and an NASD broker-dealer, or (2) a "net exercise" where the holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value of the warrant by surrendering warrant shares according to a formula based on the average closing ask price for the shares for the 10 preceding trading days. Microfield's Board of Directors shall have approved its agreement to issue these warrants as a condition of any Advance by Lender. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall also provide a written agreement by Microfield shareholders holding a majority of voting 3 - BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385177.1 shares to approve the issuance of such warrants and to increase authorized shares of Microfield as necessary to accommodate the exercise of the warrants. 4.

Borrower shall do all things necessary to preserve and to keep in full force and effect its existence, rights and privileges, and shall comply with all regulations, rules, ordinances, statutes, orders and decrees of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority or court applicable to Borrower and Borrower's business activities. b. ASSUMED BUSINESS NAMES. Borrower has filed or recorded all documents or filings required by law relating to all assumed business names used by Borrower. Excluding the name of Borrower, a complete list of all assumed business names under which Borrower does business is listed in the attached Disclosure Schedule. c. AUTHORIZATION. Borrower's execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all the Related Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary action by Borrower and do not conflict with, result in a violation of, or constitute a default under (1) any provision of Borrower's articles of organization, operating agreement, articles of incorporation, other organizational documents or agreements or instruments binding upon Borrower or (2) any law, governmental regulation, court decree or order applicable to Borrower or to Borrower's properties. d.

Borrower authorizes Lender and its agents to enter upon the Collateral to make such inspections and tests as Lender may deem appropriate to determine compliance of the Collateral with this section of the Agreement. Any inspections or tests made by Lender shall be at Borrower's expense and for Lender's purposes only and shall not be construed to create any responsibility or liability on the part of Lender to Borrower or to any other person. The representations and warranties contained herein are based on Borrower's due diligence in investigating the Collateral for hazardous waste and Hazardous Substances. Borrower hereby (1) releases and waives any future claims against Lender for indemnity or contribution in the event Borrower becomes liable for cleanup or other costs under any such laws, and (2) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lender against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties and expenses which Lender may directly or indirectly sustain or suffer resulting from a breach of this section of the Agreement or as a consequence of any use, generation, manufacture, storage, disposal, release or threatened release of a hazardous waste or substance on the Collateral, or as a result of a violation of any Environmental Laws. The provisions of this section of the Agreement, including the obligation to indemnify, shall survive the payment of the Indebtedness and the termination, expiration or satisfaction of this Agreement 5 - BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385177.1 and shall not be affected by Lender's acquisition of any interest in any of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise. i. LITIGATION AND CLAIMS. No litigation, claim, investigation, administrative proceeding or similar action (including those for unpaid taxes) against Borrower is pending or threatened, and no other event has occurred which may materially adversely affect Borrower's financial condition or properties, other than litigation, claims or other events, if any, that have been disclosed to Lender in the Disclosure Schedule. j.

All such expenses will become a part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will (a) be payable on demand; (b) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to become due during either (1) the term of any applicable insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or (c) be treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the Note's maturity. 7. NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that while this Agreement is in effect, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender: 9 - BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385177.1 a. INDEBTEDNESS AND LIENS. (1) Except for trade debt incurred in the normal course of business and indebtedness to Lender contemplated by this Agreement, create, incur or assume indebtedness for borrowed money, including capital leases, (2) sell, transfer, mortgage, assign, pledge, lease, grant a security interest in, or encumber any of Borrower's assets (except as allowed as Permitted Liens), or (3) sell any of Borrower's accounts, except to CAPCO Financial Company or Lender. b.

Borrower or any Grantor fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in the Note or in any of the Related Documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and Borrower. If any failure, other than a failure to pay money, is curable and if Borrower or a Grantor, as the case may be, has not been given a notice of a similar breach within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured (and no Event of Default will have occurred) if Borrower or a Grantor, as the case may be, after delivery of written notice from Lender demanding cure of such failure: (a) cures the failure within fifteen (15) days; or (b) if the cure requires more than 15 days, immediately initiates steps 10 - BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385177.1 sufficient to cure the failure and thereafter continues and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance within sixty (60) days after notice is sent. c.

FALSE STATEMENTS. Any warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower's behalf under this Agreement, the Note or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading at any time thereafter. e. DEATH OR INSOLVENCY. The dissolution of Borrower (regardless of whether election to continue is made), any member withdraws from Borrower, or any other termination of Borrower's existence as a going business or the death of any member, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver for any part of Borrower's property, any assignment for the benefit of creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower. f.

EVENTS AFFECTING GUARANTOR. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect to any Guarantor of any of the Indebtedness or any Guarantor dies or becomes incompetent, or revokes or disputes the validity of, or liability under, any guaranty of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Note. In the event of a Guarantor's death, Lender, at its sole option, may permit the Guarantor's estate to assume unconditionally the obligations arising under the guaranty in a manner satisfactory to Lender, and, in doing so, cure any Event of Default. h. ADVERSE CHANGE. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment performance of the Note has been impaired. i. INSECURITY. Lender in good faith believes itself insecure. 10. EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except where otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any other agreement immediately will terminate (including any obligation to make further Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender's option all Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type described in the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be 11 - BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385177.1 automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity or otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform any obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies. If any Event of Default shall occur, Borrower will make (or instruct any third party holding Borrower's funds to do so) daily payments to Lender equal to 15% of Borrower's receivable collections for the prior business day. If CAPCO Financial Company or another lender is directly receiving Borrower's receivable collections, Borrower agrees to execute an agreement with CAPCO (or other lender) and Lender providing that, if any Event of Default shall occur, Lender may direct CAPCO (or other lender) to remit 15% of the daily collections directly to Lender. If any Event of Default shall occur, Borrower shall provide Lender with (a) a copy of each Borrower's Certificate provided to CAPCO or similar lender, (b) weekly accounts receivable aging report, and (c) weekly accounts payable aging report, including all related-party and intercompany payables. 11. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of this Agreement: a. AMENDMENTS.

BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY ASSIGNMENT OR TRANSFER BY LENDER OR ANY ASSIGNEE SHALL NOT MATERIALLY CHANGE BORROWER'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE ASSIGNED 12 - BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385177.1 NOTE AND RELATED DOCUMENTS.

Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing. 2. INTEREST RATE.

EXTENSION OF MATURITY. Provided that no Event of Default is then continuing in effect, Borrower may elect to extend the scheduled Maturity Date of this Note for up to an additional 6 months if Borrower demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender that Borrower is then involved in a specific transaction to raise additional capital in a sufficient amount to pay all of Borrower's Indebtedness and the transaction is reasonably expected to close within the extension period. Borrower shall give Lender notice of Borrower's intent to extend the maturity date at least 30 days prior to the scheduled Maturity Date and shall provide Lender with information requested to verify the capital raise transaction.

Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule; early payments will reduce the outstanding principal balance due. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender.

DEFAULT IN FAVOR OF THIRD PARTIES. Borrower or any Grantor defaults under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sale agreement, or any other agreement in favor of any other creditor or person that may materially affect any of Borrower's property or Borrower's ability to repay this Note or perform Borrower's obligations under this Note or any of the Related Documents. d.

Borrower agrees to cause the terms of the Warrant to provide that, in the event Lender were to subsequently convert all or any part of the Loan to stock of Microfield, the conversion will be treated as an issuance of shares that might result in a downward adjustment of the exercise price of the Warrant if the Loan conversion rate is less than $0.38 per share. 5. NO WAIVER. Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the terms of this Agreement shall not serve to effect a novation as to the Loan Agreement or any Related Document.

Originator shall, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment and in light of all circumstances surrounding the Loan, have full and complete authority to pursue any remedy 4 - NON-RECOURSE LOAN PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385382.1 or remedies available for enforcement of the Loan Documents; provided, however, that Originator may not make any material amendment to the Loan Documents, forgive or waive any principal or interest, or release any collateral or obligor on the Loan without the prior written consent of Participant. All costs and expenses actually incurred by the parties hereto in enforcing, arising out of, or relating to, the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the foreclosure of any security interest, or defense of any claim or counterclaim, shall to the extent the same are not actually reimbursed to the party advancing the same, be allocated between the parties hereto in the same proportion as their respective Participation Interests. If Originator is unable to collect the Loan after reasonable efforts to do so, Originator shall give prompt notice thereof to Participant and shall commence foreclosure by appropriate procedure all as reasonably determined by Originator. Originator, after consultation with Participant, may determine whether to purchase any of the collateral at any foreclosure sale or to accept a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and shall manage and maintain the collateral if so acquired in accordance with Section 7.3 below. Originator: (1) may consult concerning the Loan with legal counsel (including but not limited to legal counsel for Borrower), independent public accountants, any other experts selected by Originator and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted in good faith advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (2) shall incur no liability by acting upon any notice consent, certificate, or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile, telecopy or telex) believed by Originator to be genuine and believed by Originator to be signed or sent by the proper party; (3) shall have no duty to inspect any property (including but not limited to the books and records) of Borrower or any property or other interest securing the Loan; and (4) shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning the performance by Borrower of its obligations under or compliance by Borrower with the terms and conditions of any of the Loan Documents. 6.2 SET-OFFS. Originator and Participant shall share, proportionately in accordance with their respective Participation Interests, all amounts obtained by either from any parties obligated on the Loan ("Debtors") by way of set-offs from accounts maintained with either. 7. DEFAULT UNDER LOAN DOCUMENTS. 7.1 NOTICE OF DEFAULT. Originator shall give prompt notice to Participant as to any default under the terms of any of the Loan Documents, upon Originator obtaining knowledge of the same. Originator shall forward to Participant copies of all notices, correspondence and other materials which may be sent or received by Originator in connection with a default. 7.2 CONDUCT NOTICES. In the event of a default by Borrower under the Loan Documents, Originator may inform Participant by written notice (a "Conduct Notice") of the course of conduct to be undertaken in response to such default (e.g., modification of the Loan Documents, foreclosure, acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, etc.). Originator may modify such course of conduct from time to time, as circumstances may suggest, and shall so inform Participant by a Conduct Notice. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Originator always shall have the right to take such steps as it reasonably deems necessary to protect and to 5 - NON-RECOURSE LOAN PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385382.1 preserve the rights reserved to it under the Loan Documents, within the time frames set forth in the Loan Documents. 7.3 ACQUISITION OF COLLATERAL. In the event any of the Collateral is acquired by Originator by foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise in accordance with Section 6.1, at a time when both Originator and Participant have a Participation Interest in the Loan, each shall have an undivided ownership interest in such Collateral in percentages equal to the respective principal amounts actually advanced by each, less any payments of principal returned to each. If Originator acquires or intends to acquire any Collateral at foreclosure sale in accordance with Section 6.1, Originator may credit bid all or a portion of the amount outstanding on the Loan, such bid to be allocated proportionately between Originator and Participant according to their respective Participation Interests. After title to any Collateral is acquired by Originator, Originator shall prepare a proposed joint ownership agreement concerning ownership, management, maintenance, repair or improvement of said Collateral, including cost estimates. Participant shall have the right to approve such proposal, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Such joint ownership agreement shall provide, and pending execution of the same the Parties agree, that during the period such Collateral is held by the Parties as owners (a) all income, expenses (including court costs and attorney fees) and liabilities arising out of the ownership, management and possession of said Collateral shall be shared proportionately in accordance with the ownership interest of each, (b) Originator and Participant each shall be required to consent to the terms and conditions relating to any disposition of such Collateral, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and (c) in the event of disposition of such Collateral, the proceeds shall be divided prorata in accordance with the ownership interest of each. All Collateral acquired by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or other remedies shall be held by Originator for itself and for Participant according to their respective ownership interests. 7.4 PURCHASE OPTION. In the event of a default by Borrower under the Loan Documents, each Participant shall have the first option to purchase Originator's ownership interest in this participation proportionately in accordance with its Participation Interest. 8. SERVICING AND EXTRAORDINARY EXPENSES. 8.1 SERVICING CONTROL. Subject to Sections 6 and 7, Originator shall have authority for servicing and administering the Loan in all respects. Originator shall be responsible for servicing and administering the Loan in accordance with prudent lending procedures for loans of a similar type. Originator shall approve and disapprove all requests for disbursements in accordance with its normal banking procedures for similar loans. Participant shall not be responsible for any payment to Originator for the costs of servicing the Loan, including the processing of requests for disbursement of the proceeds of the Loan under periodic draw requests permitted under the Loan Documents. 8.2 EXTRAORDINARY EXPENSES. It is agreed that any necessary or appropriate extraordinary services which may be proper in connection with the Loan, including items such as (a) the restructure or foreclosure of the Loan Documents including litigation relating thereto, (b) maintenance, improvement, management or sale of any Collateral (including advances made on behalf of any of the Debtors as authorized under the Loan Documents), or (c) appraisal fees, 6 - NON-RECOURSE LOAN PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385382.1 attorney fees and court costs, shall be contracted or performed by Originator at its customary cost for such services, provided such cost is reasonable. Originator and Participant each shall pay their proportionate shares (based upon their respective Participation Interests) of such expenses; provided, however, that Originator shall refund such payments, on a basis proportionate to the respective Participation Interests of the Parties, to the extent Originator receives cash reimbursement therefor from any of the Debtors. 8.3 RECORDS AND ACCOUNTS. Originator shall maintain records of the Loan, and such records shall be available to Participant at all reasonable times during the normal business hours of Originator. Participant shall have the right to an accounting for all monies or other property received by Originator in connection with the Loan. 8.4 SERVICING COSTS. Except as provided in this Section, each Party shall bear its own administrative and servicing cost with respect to the Loan. 9. NON-FUNDING AND CONTROL CONTINGENCY DEFAULT. 9.1 NON-FUNDING CONTINGENCY. In the event that either Participant or Originator, or any successor of either, or any public authority which acquires direct management or control over any of the foregoing or is appointed as receiver thereof, fails to fund its proportionate share of any Loan disbursement or other sum to be funded or paid hereunder as and when required, the non-defaulting lender shall have the right, in each instance, to elect, within ten (10) days of acquiring knowledge of such default, to proceed under any or all of the following provisions of this Section 9.1, separately or simultaneously as the non-defaulting lender may elect: 9.1.1 AFFIRMATION OF AGREEMENT. So long as any such default remains uncured by the defaulting lender, the non-defaulting lender may elect to continue this Agreement on the following basis: (a) The defaulting lender shall have no right whatsoever to the payment of any interest with respect to the Loan which accrues from and after the first day of the calendar month during which such default occurs; (b) As subsequent payments or other funds (including judgment or foreclosure proceeds), if any, are received from or for the account of Borrower with respect to the Loan, the same shall be paid and applied as follows: (i) First: to all amounts then due or owing to the non-defaulting lender by Borrower; (ii) Second: to all amounts then due or owing to the non-defaulting lender by the defaulting lender; (iii) Third: to all other amounts then due to the non-defaulting lender; 7 - NON-RECOURSE LOAN PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385382.1 (iv) Fourth: to principal then due to the defaulting lender; and (v) Fifth: unless otherwise required by law or by a court of competent jurisdiction, to a non-interest bearing account maintained by the non-defaulting lender for subsequent application to the obligations set forth above, in the order of priority set forth above. 9.1.2 SALE OF PARTICIPATION INTEREST. The non-defaulting lender may elect to acquire, or to designate a third party lender to acquire, the Participation Interest of the defaulting lender, upon payment (which shall be deemed full payment of the amount due to the defaulting lender) of the then outstanding principal balance of all disbursements made by the defaulting lender with respect to the Loan. Such acquisition shall be consummated within ten (10) days of written notice from the non-defaulting lender stating that the non-defaulting lender has elected to proceed under this Section 9.1.2, or within such longer time period as is reasonably required by the non-defaulting lender to consummate such sale. 9.1.3 ADJUSTMENT OF PARTICIPATION INTEREST. The non-defaulting lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to expend such sums and to do such acts as are necessary to remedy the breach of the defaulting lender. No exercise of any such right shall be a waiver of the default. All funds expended by the non-defaulting lender in this connection shall be deemed to be additional principal advances to Borrower, whether or not actually disbursed to Borrower, so that the percentage Participation Interest of the non-defaulting lender shall increase and the percentage Participation Interest of the defaulting lender shall decrease. 9.1.4 ADDITIONAL RIGHTS. In addition to the rights set forth above, the non-defaulting lender shall have all rights and remedies available at law and/or in equity with respect to such default, including the right to consequential damages. 9.2 TRANSFER OF SERVICING CONTROL. Without limiting the operation of Section 9.1 in such circumstances, in the event of the occurrence of any of the following: 9.2.1 A funding default by Originator, 9.2.2 Insolvency or bankruptcy of Originator, 9.2.3 The involuntary or unapproved sale or assignment of Originator's interest in the Loan, or 9.2.4 The gross negligence or fraud by Originator in the performance of its duties hereunder or a material breach of this Agreement by Originator, and if and so long as Participant is not in default hereunder, Participant shall have the right in any of such events, to be exercised by written notice given to Originator within ten (10) days of such default, to assume all of the servicing powers herein granted to Originator, and an option to designate any person or firm, in its discretion, to exercise such powers; provided, however, that Originator shall retain ownership of Originator's participation Interest. In such event, the Loan Documents and all records relating to the Loan, together with the balance of any reserve 8 - NON-RECOURSE LOAN PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385382.1 accounts, shall be delivered, upon written request, to Participant or its designated agent, as the case may be. In the event there are multiple Participants, the Participants shall exercise these rights jointly upon mutual agreement. 10. FULL RISK PARTICIPATION; WARRANTIES. 10.1 FULL RISK PARTICIPATION. Originator does not assume and shall not have any liability to Participant for repayment of the Loan or the recovery of any sums advanced by Participant or interest thereon. The sale of the Participation Interest to Participant does not constitute an "investment security."

Lessor and Lessee mutually desire to cancel and terminate the Lease prior to the scheduled expiration date of August 31, 2006 (the "SCHEDULED EXPIRATION DATE"), all upon and subject to the terms and conditions herein provided. NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 1.

The exercise price will be the lesser of $0.38 per share or the price applicable to any shares, warrants or options (excluding options granted to employees or directors) issued by Microfield on or before the Scheduled Expiration Date.

Subject to (a) the Loan being paid in full without a default, and (b) full repayment of the unreturned cash contributions (plus Priority Return) of Preferred Members as provided in Section 3(d) of the Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of Borrower, Lender agrees as follows: 1.1 PREPAYMENT FEE. Section 3.3 of the Loan Agreement (providing for a prepayment fee for early payment of the Loan) is deleted. 1.2 STOCK OPTION. Section 11 of the Loan Agreement is modified to provide that Lender has the option to purchase up to 526.316 Series 4 Preferred shares of the Microfield Stock owned by Borrower. The purchase option may be exercised at any time during the period the Loan is outstanding and for twelve (12) months thereafter. In addition to exercising the option for cash, Lender may elect to receive from Borrower, without the payment of any additional consideration, shares of Series 4 Preferred stock equal to the value of this option calculated in the following manner: X = Y (1000*A - 380) ---------------- 1000*A where X = the number of shares to be delivered to Lender by Borrower Y = the number of option shares underlying the option which Lender elects to purchase pursuant to this net exercise provision. 1 - FIRST AMENDMENT OF LOAN AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1384697.1 A = the average closing ask price for one share of Microfield common stock for the 10 trading days preceding the day the net exercise election is made. 2.

RECITALS: A. The Holder collectively owns the following shares of Series 4 Preferred stock of the Company (the "Stock"): Holder Shares of Series 4 Preferred Stock JMW Group, LLC 2,631.579 For purposes of this Agreement, Stock shall also include all shares of the Company's Series 4 Preferred stock now owned or hereafter acquired by reason of purchase, exercise of warrants, conversion, division or otherwise, by the Holder. B. The Company and Holder desire to provide for registration rights and lock-up provisions set forth herein. AGREEMENT: NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. Company Registration. 1.1 Registrable Securities. For purposes of this Agreement, "Registrable Securities" means the Stock or other securities issued or issuable with respect to the Stock upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event; provided, however, that shares of Stock or other securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and so long as they have not been (A) sold or otherwise transferred to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, or (B) sold or otherwise transferred in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions and restrictive legends with respect thereto are removed upon the consummation of such sale. Registerable Securities sold or otherwise transferred without strict compliance of the terms of this Agreement or otherwise in breach of this Agreement shall not have any benefits under this Agreement unless and until such terms have been strictly complied with or such breach has been cured. 1.2 Piggyback Registration Rights. If at any time or from time to time after expiration of the period set forth in Section 10.1 and prior to the fifth anniversary of this Agreement, the Company shall decide to register any of its securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than (x) a registration relating solely to 1 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386350.1 employee benefit plans, or (y) a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction, the Company will: (a) promptly give to the Holder written notice thereof, and (b) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company by the Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. 1.3 Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holder as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 1.2(a). In such event, the right of the Holder to registration pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting, to the extent requested, to the extent provided herein. The Holder shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting (the "Other Participating Holders")) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting, on a pro rata basis based on the total number of securities (including, without limitation, Registrable Securities) requested to be registered pursuant to registration rights granted to the Holder and the Other Participating Holders by the Company. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to the Holder or the Other Participating Holders to the nearest one hundred (100) shares. If the Holder or any Other Participating Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it, he or she may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration, and shall not be transferred in a public distribution prior to one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto. 1.4 Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. 2 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386350.1 2. Registration. 2.1 Right to Demand Registration. Following the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement and prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of this Agreement and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 2.2, if any Holder of Registrable Securities requests that the Company file a registration statement for a public offering of Registrable Securities, the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, would exceed $500,000, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 to register the Registrable Securities for such an offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be registered for the offering on such form. 2.2 Limitation of Registration. A Holder shall only have the rights set forth in Section 2.1 if the Holder previously elected to register all of such Holder's Registrable Securities as provided in Section 1.2(b), less than 50% of Holder's Registrable Securities were registered as required by the managing underwriter, and the Holder has not elected to exercise Holder's registration rights under this Section 2 more than once previously. 2.3 Notice. The Company will (i) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other holders of Series 4 Preferred stock and (ii) as soon as practicable use its best efforts to effect such registration (including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company. The substantive provisions of Section 1 shall be applicable to each registration initiated under this Section 2. 2.4 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to this Section 2: (i) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; (ii) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective date of, a registration statement (other than with respect to a registration statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction, an offering solely to employees or any other registration which is not appropriate for the registration of Registrable Securities), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; (iii) in any calendar year after the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2 in such calendar year and each such registration has been declared or ordered effective and has remained effective for the period specified in Section 4 of this Agreement; and (iv) if the Company shall furnish to such Holder a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for registration statements to be filed in the near 3 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386350.1 future, then the Company's obligation to use its best efforts to file a registration statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days from the receipt of the request to file such registration by such Holder or Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period. 3. Expenses of Registration. 3.1 Registration Expenses. "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Sections 1 and 2 hereof, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, escrow fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding the compensation of regular employees of the Company which shall be paid in any event by the Company). 3.2 Company's Obligation to Pay. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 1 and up to one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof under Section 2, and, at the Holder's option (i) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to all holders of securities of the Company exercising registration rights in any such registration or (ii) the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to the Holder in any such registration, shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the attorney fees related to such special legal counsel referred to in clause (ii) borne by the Company shall in no event exceed $5,000 in any calendar year. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement above and beyond one registration in any calendar year after the date hereof, and the cost of any counsel for the Holder in any such registration, shall be borne by the Holder. If a registration proceeding is begun upon the request of the Holder pursuant to Section 1.3 (if the first request under Section 2 in any calendar year), but such request is subsequently withdrawn, then the Holder may either: (i) bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed not to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement, or (ii) require the Company to bear all Registration Expenses of such proceeding, in which case the Company shall be deemed to have effected a registration pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement. The preceding sentence shall not apply if, at the time of such withdrawal, the Holder has learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the holder at the time of their request. 3.3 Selling Expenses. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holder shall be borne by the Holder. For purposes of this Agreement, "Selling Expenses" shall mean all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes applicable to the securities registered by the Holder and all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holder (as limited by this Section 3). 4. Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration, qualification or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 4, the Company will: 4.1 Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective until the distribution described in the 4 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386350.1 registration statement has been completed, but in no event longer than one hundred twenty (120) days. 4.2 Amendments. Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement. 4.3 Copies of Documents. Furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to the underwriters, if any, of the securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of such securities. 4.4 Blue Sky Registration. Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act. 4.5 Underwriting Agreement. In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. 4.6 Notice. Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included 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 the light of the circumstances then existing. 4.7 Securities Exchange Listing. Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange or other trading market on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed. 4.8 Transfer Agent and Registrar. Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration. 4.9 Legal Opinion and Comfort Letter. Use its best efforts to furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 4, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 4, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an 5 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386350.1 underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities. 5. Indemnification. 5.1 Indemnification of Holder. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, each of its officers and directors and partners, and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all actual out-of-pocket expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in any litigation or in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation or any alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or of any rule or regulation promulgated under any of the foregoing applicable to the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers and directors, and each person controlling such Holder, each such underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such matter if the settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder, controlling person or underwriter specifically for use therein. 5.2 Indemnification of the Company. Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other such Holder, each of its officers and directors and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all actual out-of-pocket expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged 6 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386350.1 untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such Holders, such directors, officers, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal and any other actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any matter if the settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that the maximum liability of each selling Holder under this Section 5.2 shall be equal to the net proceeds to such selling Holder as a result of such registration and offering. 5.3 Indemnification Notice. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 5 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 5 unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. 5.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid of payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions 7 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386350.1 that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that, in no event shall any contribution by a Holder under this Section 5.4 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 5.5 Underwriting Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. 5.6 Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 5 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 5, and otherwise. 6. Information by Holder. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. 7. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the sale of the Stock to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to: (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date that the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act; (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and (c) so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to the Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company and other information in the possession of or reasonably obtainable by the Company as the Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing the Holder to sell any such securities without registration. 8. Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to the Holder under Sections 1 and 2 may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by the Holder (together with any affiliate); provided, however, that (a) such transfer shall be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, (b) notice of such assignment is given to the Company, (c) such transferee or assignee (i) is a wholly-owned subsidiary or limited liability company or constituent partner (including limited partners, retired partners, members of a limited 8 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386350.1 liability company, trustee of a trust established for the benefit of the Holder's family, spouses and ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such partners or spouses who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) of the Holder, or (ii) acquires from the Holder at least 10% of the Holder's Shares and (d) agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 9. Termination of Rights. The rights of any particular Holder to cause the Company to register securities under Sections 1 and 2 shall terminate with respect to such Holder on the earlier of the fifth anniversary of the date of this Agreement, or at such time as Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act of 1933 is available for the sale of all such Holder's securities during a three (3)-month period without registration. 10. Lock-up Agreement. 10.1 Lock-up. The Holder agrees that for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of this Agreement, it will not sell or assign, whether or not for consideration, directly or indirectly, the Registrable Securities; provided, however, that to the extent that any Shares are pledged, the pledgee and any subsequent transferee agrees to be bound by this Agreement. The Holder may, during the twelve (12) month lock-up period, grant an option to purchase the Shares, provided that the option may not be exercisable until the expiration of the twelve (12) month lock-up period. Once these shares are released as collateral or assigned pursuant to Section 8, they will become subject to all the rights, obligations and restrictions set forth in this Agreement. 10.2 Authorized Transfer. The Registrable Securities may be transferred by will, the laws of descent and distribution, the operation of law, or by order of any court of competent jurisdiction and proper venue. 10.3 Legend.

HIRSCHY ("Escrow Agent"). RECITALS WHEREAS, MICG, CPS, CEAC, and Christenson are parties to that certain Merger Agreement ("Agreement") entered into contemporaneously with this Indemnification Agreement, which provides, among other things, that CPS, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MICG, merged with Christenson, wholly owned by CEAC. WHEREAS, the Agreement provides that an "Indemnification Amount" (as defined below) consisting of Two Million (2,000,000) shares of Microfield Common Stock shall be placed in an escrow against which MICG shall be able to make claim, and be indemnified and/or reimbursed for Damages (as defined in the Agreement), to which MICG is entitled pursuant to the Agreement. NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed by and among the parties hereto as follows: SECTION 1. ESTABLISHMENT OF ESCROW Escrow Agent hereby accepts and acknowledges receipt of Two Million (2,000,000) shares of common stock of Microfield as the "Indemnification Amount" to be held for the benefit of MICG, CPS, CEAC, and Christenson and their respective successors and assigns, as provided herein. CEAC has deposited 2,000,000 shares of Microfield common stock into escrow. SECTION 2. APPLICATION OF ESCROW FUNDS 2.1 PURPOSE. The Agreement provides, among other things, that CEAC shall indemnify, save, and hold harmless MICG from and against Damages which are described in the Agreement; provided, however, that MICG shall not be entitled to assert a Claim (as hereafter defined) on account of the indemnity contained in Article 6 of the Agreement unless and until the aggregate amount of Damages with respect to aggregate Claims asserted exceeds Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000). The first Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) of Damages shall be borne solely by MICG, and any Claims under this Indemnification Agreement shall only be for Claims for Damages in excess of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) and shall not include the first Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) of such Claims. Furthermore, the liability of CEAC and Christenson under the Agreement for any and all Damages incurred by MICG shall be limited by the Indemnification Amount, and further limited to Claims as to which written Claim Notice (as defined in Article 7) thereof shall have been given to CEAC and Escrow Agent on or prior to the date which is 52 weeks from the date of this Indemnification 1 - INDEMNIFICATION ESCROW AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385117.1 Agreement ("Survival Date"), whether or not the damage has actually been sustained (which Claim Notice shall to the extent possible specify the details of the Claim). 2.2 CLAIMS BY MICG. If, on or prior to the applicable Survival Date, MICG claims to be entitled to make a Claim to the Indemnification Amount held by Escrow Agent, it shall advise Escrow Agent and CEAC of the Claim in writing (a "Claim Notice"), describing in such Claim Notice the nature of the Claim, its amount (if then determinable), and the provision(s) of the Agreement on which the Claim is based. Unless CEAC sends Escrow Agent a written approval of the Claim, with a copy concurrently to MICG, within 15 days after CEAC and Escrow Agent receive such Claim Notice, CEAC shall be conclusively presumed to have rejected the Claim. If CEAC has approved the Claim in whole or in part, Escrow Agent shall, within 10 days thereafter, deliver to MICG such portion of the Indemnification Amount as necessary to satisfy the approved Claim. However, if the amount of the Claim is not then determinable, Escrow Agent shall set aside in reserve such portion of the Indemnification Amount (in shares of Microfield Common Stock based on Microfield Stock Value determined in accordance with Section 7.6 of the Agreement) necessary to cover the Claim (the "Reserve Amount"), and any such portion of the Indemnification Amount held as Reserve Amounts shall be held by Escrow Agent until such time as the amount of the Claim is ascertainable, and shall thenceforth deliver to MICG the portion of the Reserve Amount of the Indemnification Amount necessary to satisfy the Claim. In all events, Escrow Agent shall have no liability for any calculation of an Indemnification Amount or release of Microfield Common Stock so long as Escrow Agent acts in good faith. 2.3 TERMINATION OF Escrow. On the date that is 52 weeks from the date of this Indemnification Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall deliver to CEAC all of the Indemnification Amount remaining in Escrow, less any Reserve Amounts and less the amounts of any Claim Notice(s) for which MICG has not then been paid in full. Escrow Agent shall deliver to CEAC or MICG funds remaining in the escrow account after the date that is 52 weeks from the date of this Indemnification Agreement, on account of Claim Notices for which MICG has not been paid in full, or for funds remaining in previously established Reserve Accounts, only under joint written instructions signed by CEAC and MICG. When all of the Indemnification Amount has been finally distributed in accordance herewith, this Indemnification Agreement shall terminate. SECTION 3. LIABILITY OF ESCROW AGENT 3.1 CONFLICTING DEMANDS. Escrow Agent will be obligated to perform only the duties that are expressly set forth herein and need not take notice of any provisions of the Agreement. In case of conflicting demands upon Escrow Agent, it may (i) refuse to comply therewith as long as such disagreement continues and make no delivery or other disposition of any funds then held (and Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way for such failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting demands); and (ii) continue to so refrain and so refuse to act until all differences have been adjusted by agreement and Escrow Agent has been notified thereof in writing signed jointly by CEAC and MICG; or (iii) deposit the portion of the Indemnification Amount in dispute with the Clerk of Oregon Circuit Court and institute an interpleader action. 2 - INDEMNIFICATION ESCROW AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1385117.1 3.2 NO OBLIGATION TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION.

It is the specific intent of the parties to give the releases set forth in this Agreement the broadest possible construction, and any ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of a broad construction rather than a narrow construction. 13. CONFIDENTIALITY. A. The parties recognize the need to keep the terms of this Agreement confidential and that serious, irrevocable harm could result if the terms of this Agreement became known or were disclosed. Therefore, the parties agree that, without the prior written consent of all the other parties to this Agreement, no party shall disclose the terms of this Agreement to any other person, except as specifically provided for in this Agreement. In the event of such disclosure, or a threat of such disclosure, the parties agree that the sole remedy shall be in a court of equity to obtain a decree of specific performance or an injunction or temporary restraining order. B. This confidentiality clause shall not prohibit the parties from making disclosure as to the terms of this Agreement to their attorneys, accountants, or employees if disclosure to those persons is reasonably necessary for those persons to fulfill their duties to the parties. In the event of such authorized disclosure, the parties shall inform such third persons of the requirement of this confidentiality clause and shall take all reasonable steps to insure that such third persons keep the terms of this Agreement confidential. This confidentiality clause shall not prohibit the parties from making any necessary disclosure to any government authority to which the parties are required to report, including by way of illustration only, the U. S. 6 - STOCK SALE AND SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1386462.1 Securities & Exchange Commission. In the event that any party receives a subpoena or other instrument which purport to compel such party to reveal to a third party information covered by this confidentiality agreement, such party shall so notify the other parties in writing of such fact within a reasonable time before delivery of the information to such third party. This provision is intended to give the affected parties the opportunity to seek a prior determination by a court of the need to deliver such information to the third party. 14. CONTRACTUAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The parties declare and represent they fully understand the terms of the settlement and voluntarily agree to the aforesaid payment and settlement for the purpose of making a full compromise, adjustment, and settlement of claims as more fully set forth herein. It is further understood and agreed this settlement is in compromise of doubtful and disputed claims and neither the stock purchase, the payment nor the release is to be construed as an admission of liability on the part of any party above-named by whom liability is expressly denied. This document contains the entire agreement between the parties, and the terms of this Agreement are contractual and not a mere recital.

In lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash, when permitted by law and applicable regulations (including Nasdaq and NASD rules), the Holder may pay the Exercise Price through a "same day sale" commitment from the Holder and a broker-dealer that is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (an "NASD Dealer") whereby the Holder irrevocably elects to exercise the Warrant and to sell a portion of the Warrant Shares so purchased to pay for the Exercise Price and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Warrant Shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company. 2.2.3 NET EXERCISE. The Holder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, shares of Common Stock equal to the value of this warrant by the surrender of all of this Warrant to the Company with a written notice of exercise specifying reliance on this Section 2.2.3. Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Holder such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is computed using the following formula: X = Y (A-B) ------ A Where X = the number of shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to this Section 2.2.3.

The person entitled to receive the Warrant Shares shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the date the Holder is deemed to have exercised this Warrant. 2.5 SECURITIES ACT COMPLIANCE. Unless the Warrant Shares are no longer subject to Rule 144 under the Securities Act among the Company and certain investors in the Company's securities, the Company may place conspicuously upon each certificate representing the Warrant Shares a legend substantially in the following forms, the terms of which are agreed to by the Holder: THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE LAW, AND NO INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE SOLD, DISTRIBUTED, ASSIGNED, OFFERED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (A) THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS COVERING ANY SUCH TRANSACTION INVOLVING THESE SECURITIES OR (B) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF LEGAL COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES (CONCURRED IN BY LEGAL COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY) STATING THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION OR (C) THE COMPANY OTHERWISE SATISFIES ITSELF THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION. 2.6 TAXES. The Company shall pay any tax and other governmental charges which may be payable in respect of the issuance of the Warrant Shares, provided, however, that in no case will the Company pay any taxes relating to income to the Holder resulting from the issuance or exercise of this Warrant. 3 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398228.1 Section 3. WARRANT SHARES. 3.1 VALIDITY AND RESERVATION. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant will be validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale (except encumbrances or restrictions arising under federal or state securities laws), and not subject to preemptive rights. The Company agrees that, as long as this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will have duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock or other shares of capital stock of the Company as are from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and from time to time will take all steps necessary to amend its Articles of Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. Issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to the Company's officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. 3.2 LISTING OF WARRANT SHARES. The Company shall take all steps necessary to cause the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant to be approved for listing on all securities exchanges or markets and all trading or quotation facilities on which the Common Stock is listed as soon as possible after the Initial Exercise Date and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain such listings until the earlier of the Expiration Date or the date this Warrant is exercised in full. Section 4. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional Warrant Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, and the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Section 5. LIMITED RIGHTS OF WARRANT HOLDER. The Holder shall not, solely by virtue of being the Holder of this Warrant, have any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company, either at law or equity, until this Warrant shall have been exercised. Section 6. LOSS OF WARRANT. Upon receipt by the Company of satisfactory evidence of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and either (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) reasonable indemnification and a bond reasonably satisfactory to the Company if requested by the Company or (in the case of mutilation) the surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, the Company will execute and deliver to the Holder, without charge, a new warrant of like denomination. Section 7. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. 7.1 ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT SHARES. The number, class and Exercise Price per share of securities for which this Warrant may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as hereinafter provided: 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398228.1 (a) RECAPITALIZATION. If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398228.1 (d) OTHER IMPAIRMENTS. If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section 7.1(a)-(c) are not strictly applicable but are covered by the essential intent and principles of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company will appoint the firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing with the largest U.S. revenues for the prior year (but not the Company's regular auditors), which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Section 7.1, necessary to preserve the rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever an event occurs requiring any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly file with its Secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, a certificate of its President or Chief Financial Officer specifying such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the acts requiring such adjustment, and stating such other facts as shall be necessary to show the manner and figures used to compute such adjustment. Such certificate shall be made available at all reasonable times for inspection by the Holder. Promptly (but in no event more than 30 days) after each such adjustment, the Company shall give a copy of such certificate by certified mail to the Holder. Section 8. MISCELLANEOUS. 8.1 BINDING EFFECT; ASSIGNMENT. This Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and the Holder and their respective successors, heirs, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

The acceptance of a New Warrant by the transferee shall be deemed the acceptance of such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder to the office of the Company specified in Section 8.2, for one or more New Warrants evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder.

Upon the written request of any Investor made within 10 days after the receipt of notice from the Company (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Investor), the Company will use its best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that the Company has been so requested to register by each Investor, to the extent requisite to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities so to be registered; provided, however, that (A) if such registration involves a Public Offering, each Investor must sell its Registrable Securities to any underwriters selected by the Company with the consent of such Investor on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Company and (B) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this /s/ AW /s/ RJ - ---------- ---------- Initials Initials 3 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398864.1 Section 2 and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register such Registrable Securities, the Company shall give written notice to each Investor and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration. The Company's obligations under this Section 2.3 shall terminate on the date that the registration statement to be filed in accordance with Section 2.1 is declared effective by the Commission. (b) If a registration pursuant to this Section 2.3 involves a Public Offering and the managing underwriter thereof advises the Company that, in its view, the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company and the Investors intend to include in such registration exceeds the largest number of shares of Common Stock that can be sold without having an adverse effect on such Public Offering (the "Maximum Offering Size"), the Company will include in such registration only such number of shares of Common Stock as does not exceed the Maximum Offering Size, and the number of shares in the Maximum Offering Size shall be allocated pro rata among the Company, the Investors and any other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting due to an existing Registration Rights between such holders and the Company.

With respect to registrations pursuant to this Section 2.3, the number of securities required to satisfy any underwriters' over-allotment option shall be allocated among the Company, the Investors and any Third Party Seller pro rata on the basis of the relative number of securities offered for sale under such registration by each of the Investors, the Company and any such Third Party Sellers before the exercise of such over-allotment option. 3. Obligations of the Company.

3.5 As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, notify each Investor of the occurrence of any event, as a result of which the Prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and promptly prepare an amendment to the Registration Statement and supplement to the Prospectus to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver a number of copies of such supplement and amendment to each Investor as such Investor may reasonably request;

and, within three (3) business days after a registration statement which includes Registrable Securities is declared effective by the Commission, deliver and cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in such registration statement) an appropriate instruction and, to the extent necessary, an opinion of such counsel;

Indemnification and Contribution 6.1 Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Investor (each such person being sometimes hereinafter referred to as an "Indemnified Person") from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading, or arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and the Company hereby agrees to reimburse such Indemnified Person for all reasonable legal and other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as and when such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any such Indemnified Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made in, or an omission or alleged omission from, such Registration Statement or Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use therein or (ii) in the case of the occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3.5, the use by the Indemnified Person of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has provided to such Indemnified Person an updated Prospectus correcting the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability. 6.2 Notice of Claims, etc. Promptly after receipt by a party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 6 (an "Indemnified Party") of written notice of any investigation, claim, proceeding or other action in respect of which indemnification is being sought (each, a "Claim"), the Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the party against whom indemnification pursuant to this Section 6 is being sought (the "Indemnifying Party") of the commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability that it otherwise may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced and forfeits substantive rights and defenses by reason of such failure. In connection with any Claim as to which both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are parties, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense of any Claim by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate legal counsel and to participate in the defense of such Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such separate legal counsel to the /s/ AW /s/ RJ - ---------- ---------- Initials Initials 9 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398864.1 Indemnified Party if (and only if): (x) the Indemnifying Party shall have agreed to pay such fees, costs and expenses, (y) the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably have concluded that representation of the Indemnified Party by the Indemnifying Party by the same legal counsel would not be appropriate due to actual or, as reasonably determined by legal counsel to the Indemnified Party, potentially differing interests between such parties in the conduct of the defense of such Claim, or if there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are in addition to or disparate from those available to the Indemnifying Party or (z) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to employ legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party within a reasonable period of time after notice of the commencement of such Claim. If the Indemnified Party employs separate legal counsel in circumstances other than as described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) above, the fees, costs and expenses of such legal counsel shall be borne exclusively by the Indemnified Party. Except as provided above, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any Claim in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of counsel for the Indemnified Party (together with appropriate local counsel). The Indemnified Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), settle or compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment that does not include an unconditional release of the Indemnifying Party from all liabilities with respect to such Claim or judgment. 6.3 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Person under Section 6.1 above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party or by such Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.3 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Investors or any underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 6.3. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The obligations of the Investors and any underwriters in this Section 6.3 to contribute shall be several in proportion to the percentage of Registrable Securities registered or underwritten, as the case may be, by them and not joint. /s/ AW /s/ RJ - ---------- ---------- Initials Initials 10 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398864.1 6.4 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, in no event shall any (i) Investor be required to undertake liability to any person under this Section 6 for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds to be received by such Investor from the sale of such Investor's Registrable Securities (after deducting any fees, discounts and commissions applicable thereto) pursuant to any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities are to be registered under the Securities Act and (ii) underwriter be required to undertake liability to any Person hereunder for any amounts in excess of the aggregate discount, commission or other compensation payable to such underwriter with respect to the Registrable Securities underwritten by it and distributed pursuant to the Registration Statement. 6.5 The obligations of the Company under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified Person and the obligations of any Indemnified Person under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which such Indemnified Person may otherwise have to the Company. The remedies provided in this Section 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to an indemnified party at law or in equity. 7. Exclusive Remedy. If: (i) a Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the Filing Date; or (ii) a Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Effective Date or the Extended Effective Date, as applicable, any such failure or breach being referred to as an "Event," and for purposes of clauses (i) or (ii) the date on which such Event occurs "Event Date," then on the one-month anniversary of each such Event Date, and on each monthly anniversary thereafter, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages equal to 2% of the aggregate Investment Amount paid by such Holder, or in the Company's sole discretion issue shares of common stock of the Company equal to 4% of each Holder's Investment Amount. The parties agree that the Company will not be liable for liquidated damages under this Section in respect of the Warrants. For the purposes of this Section 7, the value of the common stock to be issued shall be the trading price for such shares on the OTCBB or other exchange on the Event Date. This shall be Holder's sole and exclusive remedy for Company's failure to fulfill its registration obligations under Section 2.1. The liquidated damages shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event, except in the case of the First Event Date. 8. Rule 144. With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration ("Rule 144"), the Company agrees to use its best efforts to: 8.1 comply with the provisions of paragraph (c) (1) of Rule 144; and 8.2 file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) under the Exchange Act; and, if at any time it is not required to file such reports but in the past had been required to or did file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Investor, make available other information as required by, and so long as necessary to permit sales of, its Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144. /s/ AW /s/ RJ - ---------- ---------- Initials Initials 11 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398864.1 9.

Amendment and Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and Investors who hold a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be binding upon each Investor and the Company. 11. Changes in Common Stock. If, and as often as, there are any changes in the Common Stock by way of stock split, stock dividend, reverse split, combination or reclassification, or through merger, consolidation, reorganization or recapitalization, or by any other means, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the provisions hereof, as may be required, so that the rights and privileges granted hereby shall continue with respect to the Common Stock as so changed. 12. Miscellaneous 12.1 A person or entity shall be deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such person or entity owns of record such Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more persons or entities with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities. 12.2 If, after the date hereof and prior to the Commission declaring the Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to Section 2.1 effective under the Securities Act, the Company grants to any Person any registration rights with respect to any Company securities which are more favorable to such other Person than those provided in this Agreement, then the Company forthwith shall grant (by means of an amendment to this Agreement or otherwise) identical registration rights to all Investors hereunder. 12.3 Except as may be otherwise provided herein, any notice or other communication or delivery required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally, or sent by telecopier machine or by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, and shall be deemed given when so delivered personally, or by telecopier machine or overnight courier service as follows: /s/ AW /s/ RJ - ---------- ---------- Initials Initials 12 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398864.1 If to the Company, to: Microfield Group, Inc. 1631 NW Thurman Street, Suite 200 Portland, Oregon 97209 Telephone: 503-419-3580 Facsimile: 503-620-4090 If to the Investor, to: Energy Fund III, LLC 805 SW Broadway, Suite 560 Portland, OR 97205 Telephone: 503-419-3500 Facsimile: 503-419-3530 If to any other Investor, at such address as such Investor shall have provided in writing to the Company.

The Company agrees that, as long as this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will have duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock or other shares of capital stock of the Company as are from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and from time to time will take all steps necessary to amend its Articles of Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. Issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to the Company's officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. 3.2 LISTING OF WARRANT SHARES.

Section 7. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. 7.1 ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT SHARES. The number, class and Exercise Price per share of securities for which this Warrant may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as hereinafter provided: 4 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398911.1 (a) RECAPITALIZATION. If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or if the Company shall effect a stock dividend, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price per share shall be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of this Warrant nor the aggregate price payable for such percentage shall be affected by any event described in this Section 7.1(a). (b) MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional shares of capital stock other than by stock dividend or stock split), then, the Holder of this Warrant will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which it would have been entitled if, immediately before the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other change to the end that the provisions of this Section 7 (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. (c) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS OF STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (i) securities of the Company (other than as provided for in Section 7.1(a) or (b) above) or any other entity or (ii) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the Initial Exercise Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Initial Exercise Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock or securities available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 7. (d) OTHER IMPAIRMENTS. If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Section 7.1(a)-(c) are not strictly applicable but are covered by the essential intent and 5 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398911.1 principles of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company will appoint the firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing with the largest U.S. revenues for the prior year (but not the Company's regular auditors), which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Section 7.1, necessary to preserve the rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein. 7.2 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever an event occurs requiring any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly file with its Secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, a certificate of its President or Chief Financial Officer specifying such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the acts requiring such adjustment, and stating such other facts as shall be necessary to show the manner and figures used to compute such adjustment. Such certificate shall be made available at all reasonable times for inspection by the Holder. Promptly (but in no event more than 30 days) after each such adjustment, the Company shall give a copy of such certificate by certified mail to the Holder. Section 8. MISCELLANEOUS. 8.1 BINDING EFFECT; ASSIGNMENT. This Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and the Holder and their respective successors, heirs, legal representatives and permitted assigns. This Warrant and the Warrant Shares (collectively, "Securities") may only be disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from or in a transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable federal and state securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, transfer may only be made with the prior written consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and the Company may require the transferor to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred securities under the Securities Act; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent of the Company shall be required for the assignment or transfer of rights hereunder by a Holder to such assignor's or transferor's partners, shareholders or members or retired partners or former shareholders or members, if any, or for any other assignment or transfer to the spouse, ancestors, lineal descendants or siblings of such assignor or transferor, provided the transferee(s) certify to the Company that each is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and that it is acquiring the Securities solely for investment purposes. The Company shall register the transfer of any portion of this Warrant, upon surrender of this Warrant with the Form of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the Company's transfer agent or to the Company at the office specified in Section 8.2. Upon any such transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a "New Warrant"), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The 6 - STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398911.1 acceptance of a New Warrant by the transferee shall be deemed the acceptance of such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder to the office of the Company specified in Section 8.2, for one or more New Warrants evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder. Any such New Warrant will be dated the date of such exchange. 8.2 NOTICE. All notices required or permitted under this Warrant shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) three days after deposit with the United States Post Office, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the party to be notified at the address for such party, (c) one day after deposit with a nationally recognized air courier service such as DHL or Federal Express, or (d) on the date of facsimile transmission, with confirmed transmission.

The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder of this Warrant against impairment.

Such notice shall be delivered at least thirty (30) days before the consummation of the applicable event. 8.6 NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS.

Indemnification and Contribution. 6.1 Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Investor (each such person being sometimes hereinafter referred to as an "Indemnified Person") from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading, or arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and the Company hereby agrees to reimburse such Indemnified Person for all reasonable legal and other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as and when such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any such Indemnified Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made in, or an omission or alleged omission from, such Registration Statement or Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use therein or (ii) in the case of the occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3.5, the use by the Indemnified Person of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has provided to such Indemnified Person an updated Prospectus correcting the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability. 6.2 Notice of Claims, etc. Promptly after receipt by a party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 6 (an "Indemnified Party") of written notice of any investigation, claim, proceeding or other action in respect of which indemnification is being sought (each, a "Claim"), the Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the party against whom indemnification pursuant to this Section 6 is being sought (the "Indemnifying Party") of the commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability that it otherwise may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced and forfeits substantive rights and defenses by reason of such failure. In connection with any Claim as to which both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are parties, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense of any Claim by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate legal counsel and to participate in the defense of such Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such separate legal counsel to the /s/ AW /s/ RJ - -------- -------- Initials Initials 9 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398983.1 Indemnified Party if (and only if): (x) the Indemnifying Party shall have agreed to pay such fees, costs and expenses, (y) the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably have concluded that representation of the Indemnified Party by the Indemnifying Party by the same legal counsel would not be appropriate due to actual or, as reasonably determined by legal counsel to the Indemnified Party, potentially differing interests between such parties in the conduct of the defense of such Claim, or if there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are in addition to or disparate from those available to the Indemnifying Party or (z) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to employ legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party within a reasonable period of time after notice of the commencement of such Claim. If the Indemnified Party employs separate legal counsel in circumstances other than as described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) above, the fees, costs and expenses of such legal counsel shall be borne exclusively by the Indemnified Party. Except as provided above, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any Claim in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of counsel for the Indemnified Party (together with appropriate local counsel). The Indemnified Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), settle or compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment that does not include an unconditional release of the Indemnifying Party from all liabilities with respect to such Claim or judgment. 6.3 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Person under Section 6.1 above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party or by such Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.3 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Investors or any underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 6.3. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The obligations of the Investors and any underwriters in this Section 6.3 to contribute shall be several in proportion to the percentage of Registrable Securities registered or underwritten, as the case may be, by them and not joint. /s/ AW /s/ RJ - -------- -------- Initials Initials 10 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT PDX/112816/141153/DLH/1398983.1 6.4 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, in no event shall any (i) Investor be required to undertake liability to any person under this Section 6 for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds to be received by such Investor from the sale of such Investor's Registrable Securities (after deducting any fees, discounts and commissions applicable thereto) pursuant to any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities are to be registered under the Securities Act and (ii) underwriter be required to undertake liability to any Person hereunder for any amounts in excess of the aggregate discount, commission or other compensation payable to such underwriter with respect to the Registrable Securities underwritten by it and distributed pursuant to the Registration Statement. 6.5 The obligations of the Company under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified Person and the obligations of any Indemnified Person under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which such Indemnified Person may otherwise have to the Company. The remedies provided in this Section 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to an indemnified party at law or in equity. 7. Exclusive Remedy. If: (i) a Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the Filing Date; or (ii) a Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Effective Date or the Extended Effective Date, as applicable, any such failure or breach being referred to as an "Event," and for purposes of clauses (i) or (ii) the date on which such Event occurs "Event Date," then on the one-month anniversary of each such Event Date, and on each monthly anniversary thereafter, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages equal to 2% of the aggregate Investment Amount paid by such Holder, or in the Company's sole discretion issue shares of common stock of the Company equal to 4% of each Holder's Investment Amount. The parties agree that the Company will not be liable for liquidated damages under this Section in respect of the Warrants. For the purposes of this Section 7, the value of the common stock to be issued shall be the trading price for such shares on the OTCBB or other exchange on the Event Date. This shall be Holder's sole and exclusive remedy for Company's failure to fulfill its registration obligations under Section 2.1. The liquidated damages shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event, except in the case of the First Event Date. 8. Rule 144.
