REPRESENTATIONS OF THE COMPANY The Company represents and warrants to the Purchaser that: a. Organization.

Schedule 3(a) lists all subsidiaries of the Company and, except as noted therein, all of the outstanding capital stock of all such subsidiaries is owned of record and beneficially by the Company. b. Capitalization. On the date hereof, the authorized capital of the Company consists of 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of which 36,115,666 shares are issued and outstanding; and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, of which no shares are issued and outstanding.

Concerning the Common Stock and the Warrants. The Initial Shares, the Initial Warrants, and if the Conditional Warrant shall be exercised, the Additional Shares and the Additional Warrants and Common Stock issuable upon (i) conversion of, or in lieu of dividend payments on, the Initial Shares, and upon exercise of the Initial Warrants, and (ii) if the Conditional Warrant is exercised, conversion of, or in lieu of dividend payments on, the Additional Shares, and upon exercise of the Additional Warrants when issued, shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non- assessable, will not be subject to preemptive rights and will not subject the holder thereof to personal liability by reason of being such a holder.

The Company further acknowledges that its obligation to issue shares of Common Stock upon (i) conversion of the Initial Shares and upon exercise of the Initial Warrants, and (ii) if the Conditional Warrant is exercised, the conversion of the Additional Shares and the exercise of the Additional Warrants is absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Company and notwithstanding the commencement of any case under 11 U.S.C. 101 et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code"). f. Legality. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, and to issue and deliver the Initial Shares, the Initial Warrants, the Conditional Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of, or in lieu of dividend payments on, (i) the Initial Shares and the exercise of the Initial Warrants, and (ii) if the Conditional Warrant is exercised, the conversion of the Additional Shares and the Additional Warrants. g.

Neither the filing of the registration statement required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement nor the offering or sale of the Initial Shares, the Initial Warrants or the Conditional Warrant as contemplated by this Agreement and if the Conditional Warrant is exercised, the Additional Warrants and Additional Shares, and the shares of Common Stock into which all such securities may be converted or exercised, as applicable, gives rise to any rights, other than those which have been waived or satisfied on or prior to the Initial Closing Date, for or relating to the registration of any shares of the Common Stock. i.

In addition, the Company agrees that it will not cause any shares of its capital stock or that were issued in connection with any financing, acquisition or other transaction that occurred prior to the date of this Agreement to be covered by a registration statement that is to be filed or declared effective by the Commission until the earlier to occur of (A) the expiration of the Lock-Up Period or (B) the date that the registration statement filed by the Company pursuant to its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement has been effective under the Securities Act for a period of at least two-hundred and seventy (270) days, during which two hundred seventy (270) day period the Company shall not have notified the Purchaser that such registration statement or the prospectus included in such registration statement includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided that, notwithstanding the above, the Company may file a registration statement as required under the Equity Line Agreement and the registration rights agreement attached thereto (the "Swartz Registration Rights Agreement") anytime after, but no sooner than fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date and may not have such registration statement declared effective prior to the Equity Line Free Exercise Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary in this Agreement or the Conditional Warrant, the Company may not issue and sell any Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to an exercise of the Conditional Warrant anytime after the Company delivers an Advance Put Notice (as defined in the Equity Line Agreement) to Swartz pursuant to the Equity Line Agreement. The Company shall not deliver an Advance Put Notice to Swartz until the Equity Line Free Exercise Date or any date thereafter. j. Right of First Refusal. Subject to Section 4(i), if during the eighteen (18) month period following the Lock-Up Period the Company shall desire to sell, offer to sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any securities or any security or other instrument convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (collectively, the "Offered Securities") to a prospective investor (the "Prospective Investor"), the Company shall notify (the "Offer Notice") the Purchaser in accordance with Section 10 hereof of the terms (the "Third Party Terms") on which the Company proposes to sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of the Offered Securities to the Prospective Investor. If, within the five (5) day period following the Purchaser's receipt of the Offer Notice, the Purchaser delivers a written notice (the "Acceptance Notice") to the Company stating its desire to purchase all or any portion of the Offered Securities on the Third Party Terms, the Company shall be required to sell the Offered Securities (or any portion thereof so desired by the Purchaser) to the Purchaser at the price and on the terms set forth in the Offer Notice and the Company shall not be permitted to sell such Offered Securities to the Prospective Investor. If the Purchaser does not deliver an Acceptance Notice to the Company in such five (5) day period, then for a period of sixty (60) days following the date of the Offer Notice the Company may sell the Offered Securities to the Prospective Investor on the terms set forth in the Offer Notice. Notwithstanding the terms of this Section 4(j), in the event that the Company provides the Purchaser with twenty (20) days prior written notice of its intent to sell or issue capital stock of the Company or deliver an Advance Put Notice, the Company shall not be required to deliver an Offer Notice, and the Purchaser shall have no rights of refusal with respect to any securities offered or sold by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Equity Line Agreement. k.

Stockholder Approval. If required in accordance with Nasdaq Rule 4310 or 4460, the Company agrees to use its best efforts (including obtaining any vote of its stockholders required by applicable law or Nasdaq rules) to authorize and approve the issuance of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Initial Shares, the Additional Shares and upon exercise of the Initial Warrants and the Additional Warrants, to the extent that such conversion or issuance results in the issuance of 20% or more of the Company's outstanding Common Stock; provided, however, that the failure to obtain any such stockholder approval shall not limit any of Purchaser's rights hereunder or pursuant to any Primary Document. m. Ownership. At no time shall the Purchaser (including its officers, directors and affiliates) maintain in the aggregate beneficial ownership (as defined for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of shares of Common Stock in excess of 9.9% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock unless the Purchaser gives the Company at least sixty-one (61) days notice that it intends to increase its ownership percentage. n. Return of Certificates on Conversion and Stock Purchase Warrants on Exercise. (i) Upon any conversion by Purchaser of less than all of the Shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designations, the Company shall issue and deliver to Purchaser within four (4) days of the Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Date (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), a new certificate or certificates for, as applicable, the total number of shares of Preferred Stock, in each case, which Purchaser has not yet elected to convert (with the number of and denomination of such new certificate(s) designated by Purchaser). (ii) Upon any partial exercise by Purchaser of Stock Purchase Warrants, the Company shall issue and deliver to Purchaser within four (4) days of the date on which such Stock Purchase Warrants are exercised, a new Stock Purchase Warrant or Stock Purchase Warrants representing the number of adjusted Shares covered thereby, in accordance with the terms thereof. o. Replacement Certificates and Stock Purchase Warrants. (i) The certificate(s) representing the shares of Preferred Stock, held by Purchaser shall be exchangeable, at the option of Purchaser, at any time and from time to time at the office of Company, for certificates with different denominations representing, as applicable, an equal aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock, as requested by Purchaser upon surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for such registration or transfer or exchange. (ii) The Stock Purchase Warrants will be exchangeable, at the option of Purchaser, at any time and from time to time at the office of the Company, for other Stock Purchase Warrants of different denominations entitling the holder thereof to purchase in the aggregate the same number of shares of Common Stock as are purchasable under such Stock Purchase Warrants. No service charge will be made for such transfer or exchange. p. Dividends or Distributions; Purchases of Equity Securities. So long as any portion of the Initial Shares, the Initial Warrants, the Conditional Warrant, the Additional Shares, or the Additional Warrants remain outstanding, the Company agrees that it shall not (a) declare or pay any dividends or make any distributions to any holder or holders of Common Stock, or (b) purchase or otherwise acquire for value, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or equity security of the Company. q. Bankruptcy Waiver. In the event the Company becomes a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted any rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. 362 in respect of (i) the conversion of the Initial Shares and the exercise of the Initial Warrants, and (ii) if the Conditional Warrant is exercised, the conversion of the Additional Shares and the exercise of the Additional Warrants. At the direction of Purchaser, the Company agrees, without cost or expense to the Purchaser, to take or consent to any and all action necessary to effectuate relief under 11 U.S.C. 362. 5. TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS a. The Company warrants that no instruction, other than the instructions referred to in this Section 5 and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Sections 4(a) and 4(b) hereof prior to the registration and sale under the Securities Act of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Initial Shares, the Additional Shares or the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Initial Warrants or the Additional Warrants, will be given by the Company to the transfer agent and that the shares of Common Stock issuable upon (i) conversion of, or in lieu of dividend payments on, the Initial Shares or upon exercise of the Initial Warrants, (ii) if the Conditional Warrant is exercised, the conversion of, or in lieu of dividend payments on the Additional Shares or upon exercise of the Additional Warrants, shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and applicable law. Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way the Purchaser's obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities laws upon resale of the Collective Securities. If the Purchaser provides the Company with an opinion of counsel that registration of a resale by the Purchaser of any of the Collective Securities in accordance with clause (1)(B) of Section 4(a) of this Agreement is not required under the Securities Act, the Company shall permit the transfer of the Collective Securities and, in the case of the Common Stock, promptly instruct the Company's transfer agent to issue one or more certificates for Common Stock without legend in such names and in such denominations as specified by the Purchaser. b. Purchaser shall exercise its right to (i) convert the Initial Shares or to exercise the Initial Warrants or (ii) if the Conditional Warrant is exercised, to convert the Additional Shares or to exercise the Additional Warrants, by faxing an executed and completed Notice of Conversion or Form of Election to Purchase, as applicable, to the Company, and delivering within four (4) business days thereafter, the original Notice of Conversion (and the related certificates representing the shares of Preferred Stock, as applicable) or Form of Election to Purchase (and the related original Stock Purchase Warrants) to the Company by hand delivery or by express courier, duly endorsed. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion or Form of Election to Purchase is faxed in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a "Conversion Date." The Company will transmit the certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock or upon exercise of any Stock Purchase Warrants (together with the shares of Preferred Stock not so converted or the Stock Purchase Warrants not so exercised) to the Purchaser via express courier as soon as practicable, but in all events no later than four (4) business days after the Conversion Date relating to shares of Preferred Stock or Stock Purchase Warrants (each such delivery date, together with the Dividend Delivery Date referred to in paragraph c below, is referred to herein as a "Delivery Date"). For purposes of this Agreement, any conversion of the Initial Shares, the Additional Shares or the exercise of the Initial Warrants or the Additional Warrants shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the Conversion Date. c. The Company will transmit the certificates representing the Common Stock issuable in lieu of dividends payable on any shares of Preferred Stock to the Purchaser via express courier as soon as practicable, but in all events no later than four (4) business days after the dividend payment date applicable to which such Common Stock is delivered (the "Dividend Delivery Date"). d. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of, or in lieu of dividends on, the Initial Shares, the Additional Shares or upon the exercise of the Initial Warrants or the Additional Warrants, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depositary Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, on the written request of the Purchaser, who shall have previously instructed the Purchaser's prime broker to confirm such request to the Company's transfer agent, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit such Common Stock to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser's prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system no later than the applicable Delivery Date. e. The Company understands that a delay in the issuance of Common Stock beyond the applicable Delivery Date could result in an economic loss to the Purchaser. As compensation to the Purchaser for such loss, the Company agrees to pay to the Purchaser for late issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of, or in lieu of dividend payments on, the Initial Shares or the Additional Shares or upon exercise of the Initial Warrants or the Additional Warrants, the sum of five thousand dollars ($5,000) per day for each (i) one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) of aggregate Stated Value (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) amount of Initial Shares or Additional Shares that are being converted, or (ii) twenty-five thousand (25,000) shares of Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of Initial Warrants or Additional Warrants. The Company shall pay any payments that are payable to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5 in immediately available funds upon demand. Nothing herein shall limit the Purchaser's right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to so issue and deliver Common Stock to the Purchaser. Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Purchaser, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of such Common Stock within five (5) business days after the relevant Delivery Date, the Purchaser will be entitled to revoke the relevant Notice of Conversion or Form of Election to Purchase by delivering a notice to such effect to the Company, whereupon the Company and the Purchaser shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to delivery of such Notice of Conversion or Form of Election to Purchase.

They are the duly elected and acting President and Secretary, respectively, of LMKI Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Corporation"). II. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation authorizes five million (5,000,000) shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share. III. The following is a true and correct copy of resolutions duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board of Directors") on _____ __, 1999 pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation and in accordance with the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Nevada. RESOLUTIONS WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is authorized to provide for the issuance of the shares of preferred stock, and by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Nevada, to establish and issue preferred stock with such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and with such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereon as the Board of Directors may determine. WHEREAS, the Board of Directors desires, pursuant to its authority as aforesaid, to designate a new series of preferred stock, set the number of shares constituting such series and fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of such series. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors hereby designates a new series of preferred stock and the number of shares constituting such series and fixes the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions relating to such series as follows: A. Designation, Amount and Par Value. The series of preferred stock shall be designated as the Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), and the number of shares so designated shall be five thousand (5,000) (which shall not be subject to increase or decrease). Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall have a par value of $0.001 per share and a stated value (the "Stated Value") of the Liquidation Preference (as hereinafter defined in Section C(1)). B. Dividends. (1) Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of funds legally available therefor, dividends at a rate equal to 6% (the "Dividend Rate") of the Liquidation Preference per share per annum (subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization affecting such shares), and no more, payable in accordance with the provisions of this Certificate of Designations. (2) At the election of the Corporation, each dividend on Series A Preferred Stock shall be paid either in shares of Common Stock of the Corporation, $.001 par value per share ("Common Stock") or in cash on the Delivery Date (as defined in Subsection G(2)(a) of this Certificate of Designations) with respect to any shares of Series A Preferred Stock which are the subject of a Notice of Conversion (as defined in Subsection G(2) of this Certificate of Designations). Dividends paid in shares of Common Stock shall be paid (based on an assumed value of $1,000 per share) in full shares only, with a cash payment equal to the value of any fractional shares. Each dividend paid in cash shall be mailed to the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock as their names and addresses appear on the share register of the Corporation or at the office of the transfer agent on the corresponding dividend payment date. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock will receive written notification from the Corporation or the transfer agent if a dividend is paid in kind, which notification will specify the number of shares of Common Stock paid as a dividend and the recipient's aggregate holdings of Common Stock as of that dividend payment date and after giving effect to the dividend. All holders of shares of Common Stock issued as dividends shall be entitled to all of the rights and benefits relating to shares of Common Stock as set forth in the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and By-laws. (3) Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to payment of any dividends in preference and priority to any payment of any cash dividend on Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall accrue with respect to each share of the Series A Preferred Stock from the date on which such share is issued and outstanding and thereafter shall be deemed to accrue from day to day whether or not earned or declared and whether or not there exists profits, surplus or other funds legally available for the payment of dividends, and shall be cumulative so that if such dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall not have been paid, or declared and set apart for payment, the deficiency shall be fully paid or declared and set apart for payment before any dividend shall be paid or declared or set apart for any Common Stock or other class or series of capital stock ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Stock (such stock being collectively referred to herein as the "Junior Stock") and before any purchase or acquisition of any Junior Stock is made by the Corporation. At the earlier of: (1) the redemption or conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or (2) the liquidation of the Corporation, any accrued but undeclared dividends shall be paid to the holders of record of outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the provisions of this Certificate of Designations. No accumulation of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall bear interest. C. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, before any payment shall be made to the holders of Junior Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount equal to one thousand dollars ($1,000) per share of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Liquidation Preference") plus any accrued but unpaid dividends (whether or not declared). If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock the full amount to which they shall be entitled, the holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the remaining assets and funds of the Corporation in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full. D. Voting. (1) Each holder of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled, at each meeting of stockholders of the Corporation (and with respect to written consents of stockholders in lieu of meetings) with respect to any and all matters presented to the stockholders of the Corporation for their action or consideration, to the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Subsection I hereof) immediately after the close of business on the record date fixed for such meeting or the effective date of such written consent. Except as provided by law, and by the provisions of Section K below, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders Common Stock as a single class. (2) The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any rights of cumulative voting with respect to their shares. E. Other Securities. Subject to any limitations contained in this Certificate of Designations, the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation and/or the Primary Documents (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 23, 1999, hereinafter the "Securities Purchase Agreement"), the Board of Directors of the Corporation reserves the right to establish additional classes and/or series of capital stock of the Corporation and to designate the preferences, limitations and relative rights of any such classes and/or series; provided, however, that no such class and/or series may have preferences, limitations and relative rights which are superior to or senior to the preferences, limitations and relative rights granted to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. F. Capital Reorganization. If the Corporation shall at any time hereafter subdivide or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock, declare a dividend payable in Common Stock, or in case of any capital reorganization or reclassification of the shares of Common Stock of the Corporation, the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Stated Value of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be adjusted appropriately to allow the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, as nearly as reasonably possible, to maintain (i) the aggregate Stated Value of the Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) their pro rata interest in the Corporation and in the Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, that each holder had prior to any such subdivision, combination, stock dividend, reorganization or reclassification. G. Conversion. (1) The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the "Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Rights"): (a) Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing $1,000, plus the amount of any accrued and unpaid dividends the Corporation elects to pay in Common Stock, by the Conversion Price (as defined below) in effect at the time of conversion. The Conversion Price at which shares of Common Stock shall be deliverable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof (the "Conversion Price") shall be the lower of (i) 110% of the average Closing Bid Price of the shares of Common Stock for the five (5) trading days prior to and including November 12, 1999 (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or (ii) 80% of the average of the three lowest Closing Bid Prices of the shares of Common Stock for the twenty-five (25) trading days immediately preceding the Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of these Articles of Amendment, the term "Closing Bid Price" means, for any security as of any date, the closing bid price on the principal securities exchange or trading market where the Common Stock is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. ("Bloomberg") or, if applicable, the closing bid price of the Common Stock in the over-the- counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no closing bid price is reported for the Common Stock by Bloomberg, then the average of the bid prices of any market makers for such security as reported in the "pink sheets" by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. If the Closing Bid Price of the Common Stock can not be calculated on such date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Bid Price of the Common Stock on such date shall be the fair market value as determined by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock being converted for which the calculation of the Closing Bid Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such shares. "Trading day" shall mean any day on which the Corporation's Common Stock is traded for any period on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded. If, during any period following November 23, 1999 (the "Original Issue Date"), as a result of the occurrence of any of the events set forth in Section 3(f) or 3(g) of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of November 23, 1999, by and between the Corporation and the Purchaser set forth therein (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), the Purchasers set forth therein are not able to sell shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of, or in lieu of dividends on, shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to a registration statement filed pursuant to such agreement, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right, for any purpose during such period and thereafter, to designate as the Conversion Price any Conversion Price that would have been applicable during such period had such Series A Preferred Stock shareholder delivered a Notice of Conversion with respect to any such Series A Preferred Stock. (b) In the event that the Corporation's stock is listed on the Nasdaq SmallCap or National Market, at any time that the number of shares of Common Stock issued (A) upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and (B) in lieu of dividend payments on the Series A Preferred Stock, shall equal 20% or more of the Corporation's outstanding Common Stock (a "Common Stock Redemption Event"), the Corporation shall (x) redeem, at a price per share equal to (A) the quotient of (i) the Liquidation Preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock plus all accrued but unpaid dividends on such shares of Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) the Conversion Price as if the Series A Preferred Stock had been converted on the Series A Preferred Stock Redemption Date multiplied by (B) the average Closing Bid Price of shares of Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the Series A Preferred Stock Redemption Date, all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock or (y) call a special meeting of its stockholders for the purpose of approving the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement, including the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock on the terms set forth therein, together with any other approvals that shall be required so as to cause the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement to remain in compliance with the Rules and Regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market (including Rules 4300 and 4310 of Nasdaq's Non- Qualitative Designation Criteria in connection with conversions of Series A Preferred Stock; such approvals are referred to herein as the "Required Approvals"). The Corporation shall determine within five (5) business days following the receipt of a Notice of Conversion which of such actions it shall take, and shall promptly furnish notice to each of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock as to such determination, including, if applicable, a notice of redemption. In no event shall the Corporation issue shares of Common Stock upon conversion of, or in lieu of dividend payments on, the Series A Preferred Stock, after the occurrence of a Common Stock Redemption Event until the Required Approvals, if any, are obtained. (c) If the Corporation elects to call a special meeting of its stockholders pursuant to Subsection G(1)(b) of this Certificate of Designations to obtain the Required Approvals, the Corporation shall use its best efforts to obtain such Required Approvals within thirty (30) days of the Initial Closing Date (such thirty (30) day period is referred to herein as an "Approval Period"). If the Corporation does not obtain the Required Approvals within the Approval Period and the Corporation receives a Notice of Conversion after the termination of the Approval Period, the Corporation must redeem, in accordance with this Subsection G of this Certificate of Designations, any shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding after the Corporation has issued in excess of 7,223,133 shares of Common Stock in connection with conversions of the Series A Preferred Stock. (d) If the Corporation elects, pursuant to this Subsection G, to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock on the occurrence of a Common Stock Redemption Event, it shall redeem such Series A Preferred Stock at the price determined in accordance with Subsection G(1)(b) of this Certificate of Designations. If the Corporation shall have elected, pursuant to this Subsection G(1), to obtain the Required Approvals but shall not have done so by the later of the occurrence of the Common Stock Redemption Event or the expiration of the Approval Period, it shall furnish a redemption notice to the Purchaser within three (3) business days after the expiration of the Approval Period. (2) The Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Rights shall be exercised as follows: (a) The Corporation will permit each holder of Series A Preferred Stock to exercise its right to convert the Series A Preferred Stock by faxing an executed and completed notice of conversion (the "Notice of Conversion") to the Corporation, and delivering within four (4) business days thereafter, the original Notice of Conversion (and the certificates representing the related shares of Series A Preferred Stock) to the Corporation by hand delivery or by express courier, duly endorsed. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is faxed in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a "Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Date." The Corporation will transmit the certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock (together with certificates representing the related shares of Series A Preferred Stock not so converted and, if applicable, a check representing any fraction of a share not converted) to such holder via express courier as soon as practicable, but in all events no later than (the "Delivery Date") four (4) business days after the Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Date. For purposes of this Certificate of Designations, such conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Date. (b) In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, provided that the Corporation's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Corporation ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, on the written request of a holder of Series A Preferred Stock who shall have previously instructed such holder's prime broker to confirm such request to the Corporation's transfer agent, the Corporation shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit such Common Stock to such holder by crediting the account of the holder's prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system no later than the applicable Delivery Date. (c) The Corporation will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. The Corporation will use its best efforts at all times to maintain a number of shares of Common Stock so reserved for issuance that is no less than the sum of (i) one and one-half (1.5) times the number that would then actually be issuable upon the conversion of five thousand (5,000) shares of Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) the exercise of the Initial Warrants and the Additional Warrants (each as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement). Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price below the established par value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel or in the opinion of counsel to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, be necessary in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Price. (3) In the event of a liquidation of the Corporation, the Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Rights shall terminate at the close of business on the first full day preceding the date fixed for the payment of any amounts distributable on liquidation to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. (4) If the conversion is in connection with an underwritten offer of securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the conversion may, at the option of any holder tendering Series A Preferred Stock for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the sale of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such Series A Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the closing of the sale of securities. (5) At no time shall any holder of the Series A Preferred Stock convert such amount of Series A Preferred Stock as shall result in such Purchaser's ownership, after such conversion, exceeding 9.9% of the Corporation's outstanding Common Stock. (6) No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. In lieu of fractional shares, the Corporation shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then effective and applicable Conversion Price. (7) The Corporation will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Certificate of Designations by the Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Certificate of Designations and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock against impairment. (8) In the event (a) that the Corporation declares a dividend (or any other distribution) on its Common Stock payable in Common Stock or other securities of the Corporation, (b) that the Corporation subdivides or combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock, (c) of any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Corporation (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding shares of Common Stock or a stock dividend or stock distribution thereon), (d) of any consolidation or merger of the Corporation into or with another corporation, (e) of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, or (f) of the involuntary or voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Corporation, then the Corporation shall cause to be filed at its principal office or at the office of the transfer agent of the Series A Preferred Stock, and shall cause to be mailed to each holder of the Series A Preferred Stock at their last address as shown on the records of the Corporation or such transfer agent, at least ten (10) days prior to the record date specified in (i) below or twenty (20) days before the date specified in (ii) below, a notice stating (i) the record date of such dividend, distribution, subdivision or combination, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distribution, subdivision or combination are to be determined, or (ii) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution or winding up. H. Sinking Fund. There shall be no sinking fund for the payment of dividends, or liquidation preferences on the Series A Preferred Stock or the redemption of any shares thereof. I. Redemption Events. In case one or more of the following events, each a redemption event, shall have occurred: (a) If the Corporation fails to have a registration statement effective within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of the Stock Purchase Agreement, at the option of the Purchaser, the Corporation shall redeem the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a redemption price of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Stated Value per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, if any; or (b) failure to deliver the shares of Common Stock required to be delivered upon conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock in the manner and at the time required by Section 5 of the Securities Purchase Agreement; or (c) failure of the Corporation to have authorized the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock or exercise of the Stock Purchase Warrants (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), including conversion of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock or exercise of any Stock Purchase Warrants, issuable upon conversion of the Conditional Warrant (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement); or (d) failure on the part of the Corporation to duly observe or perform any of the provisions of this Certificate of Designations or any of its other covenants or agreements contained in the Securities Purchase Agreement, or to cure any material breach in a material representation or covenant contained in the Securities Purchase Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement for a period of ten (10) days after the date on which written notice of such failure or breach requiring the same to be remedied has been given by a registered holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the Corporation; or (e) a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction has been entered adjudging the Corporation (or any Material Subsidiary) a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving a petition seeking reorganization of the Corporation (or any Material Subsidiary) under any applicable bankruptcy law and such decree or order has continued undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or a decree or order of a court having jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver or liquidator or trustee or assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Corporation (or any Material Subsidiary) or of all or substantially all of its property, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, has been entered, and has remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or (f) the Corporation (or any Material Subsidiary) institutes proceedings to be adjudicated a voluntary bankrupt, or consents to the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against it, or files a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization under applicable law, or consents to the filing of any such petition or to the appointment of a receiver or liquidator or trustee or assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency of it or of all or substantially all of its property, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; or if the Corporation (or any Material Subsidiary) shall suffer any writ of attachment or execution or any similar process to be issued or levied against it or any significant part of its property which is not released, stayed, bonded or vacated within sixty (60) days after its issue or levy; or if the Corporation (or any Material Subsidiary) takes corporate action in furtherance of any of the aforesaid purposes or conditions; or (g) If any default shall occur under any indenture, mortgage, agreement, instrument or commitment evidencing or under which there is at the time outstanding any indebtedness of the Corporation (or a Material Subsidiary, as hereinafter defined), in excess of $50,000, or which results in such indebtedness, in an aggregate amount (with other defaulted indebtedness) in excess of $50,000 becoming due and payable prior to its due date and if such indenture or instrument so requires, the holder or holders thereof (or a trustee on their behalf) shall have declared such indebtedness due and payable; or (h) If any of the Corporation or its subsidiaries shall default in the observance or performance of any material term or provision of a material agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound, and such default is not waived or cured within the applicable grace period; or (i) If a final judgment which, either alone or together with other outstanding final judgments against the Corporation and its subsidiaries, exceeds an aggregate of $50,000 shall be rendered against the Corporation (or any Material Subsidiary) and such judgment shall have continued undischarged or unstayed for thirty (30) days after entry thereof; or (j) If there shall occur a Change in Control of the Corporation (as defined below).

"Warrants" shall mean this Warrant and all warrants issued upon transfer, division or combination of, or in substitution for, any thereof. All Warrants shall at all times be identical as to terms and conditions and date, except as to the number of shares of Common Stock for which they may be exercised. "Warrant Price" shall mean an amount equal to (i) the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 2.1, multiplied by (ii) the Current Warrant Price as of the date of such exercise.

From and after the Warrant Issuance Date and until 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, Holder may exercise this Warrant, on any Business Day, for all or any part of the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. In order to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, Holder shall deliver to the Company at the office or agency designated by the Company pursuant to Section 12, (i) a written notice of Holder's election to exercise this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased, (ii) payment by cash, check or bank draft payable to the Company of the Warrant Price in cash or by wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank or by the Holder's surrender of Warrant Stock (or the right to receive such number of shares) having an aggregate Market Price equal to the Warrant Price for all shares then being purchased and (iii) this Warrant. Such notice shall be substantially in the form of the subscription form appearing at the end of this Warrant as Exhibit A, duly executed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon receipt of the items referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter, execute or cause to be executed and deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as hereinafter provided. The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall be, to the extent possible, in such denomination or denominations as Holder shall request in the notice and shall be registered in the name of Holder or, subject to Section 9, such other name as shall be designated in the notice. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Warrant Price. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Stock, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased shares of Common Stock called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. The Holder shall be entitled to exercise the Warrant notwithstanding the commencement of any case under 11 U.S.C. 101 et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code"). In the event the Company is a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted any rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. 362 in respect of the Holder's exercise right. The Company hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted any rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. 362 in respect of the exercise of the Warrant. The Company agrees, without cost or expense to the Holder, to take or consent to any and all action necessary to effectuate relief under 11 U.S.C. 362. 2.2. Payment of Taxes and Charges. All shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and without any preemptive rights. The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issue or delivery thereof. 2.3. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional share of Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the relevant exercise date. 2.4. Continued Validity. A holder of shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part (other than a holder who acquires such shares after the same have been publicly sold pursuant to a Registration Statement under the Securities Act or sold pursuant to Rule 144 thereunder), shall continue to be entitled with respect to such shares to all rights to which it would have been entitled as Holder under Sections 9, 10 and 14 of this Warrant. The Company will, at the time of exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, upon the request of Holder, acknowledge in writing, in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, its continuing obligation to afford Holder all such rights; provided, however, that if Holder shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to Holder all such rights. 2.5. Right to Convert Warrant. The Holder shall have the right to convert, in whole or in part, this Warrant (the "Conversion Right") at any time prior to the expiration of the Exercise Period, into shares of Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.5. Upon exercise of the Conversion Right, the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of the Warrant Price) that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the value of the portion of this Warrant being converted at the time the Conversion Right is exercised (determined by subtracting the Warrant Price for the portion of this Warrant being converted (in effect immediately prior to the exercise of the Conversion Right) from the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the whole or partial exercise of this Warrant, as the case may be, by the Market Price immediately prior to the exercise of the Conversion Right) by (y) the Market Price of one share of Common Stock immediately prior to the exercise of the Conversion Right. The Conversion Right may be exercised by the Holder, at any time or from time to time, prior to its expiration, on any business day by delivering a written notice (the "Conversion Notice") to the Company at the offices of the Company, exercising the Conversion Right and specifying (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock the Holder will purchase pursuant to the conversion and (ii) a place and date not less than two (2) nor more than twenty (20) Business Days from the date of the Subscription Notice for the closing of such purchase. At any closing under this Section 2.5, (i) the Holder will surrender this Warrant and (ii) the Company will deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. If this Warrant shall have been converted only in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of said stock certificate or certificates, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the remaining shares of Common Stock called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical to this Warrant, or, at the request of the Holder, appropriate notation may be made on this Warrant and the same returned to the Holder. The Company shall pay all expenses, taxes and other charges payable in connection with the preparation, issue and delivery of such stock certificates and new Warrants, except that, in case such stock certificates and/or new Warrants shall be registered in a name or names other than the name of the Holder, funds sufficient to pay all stock transfer taxes that are payable upon the issuance of such stock certificates or new Warrants shall be paid by the Holder at the time of delivering the notice of exercise mentioned above. 3. TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION 3.1. Transfer. Subject to compliance with Sections 9, transfer of this Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be registered on the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company referred to in Section 2.1 or the office or agency designated by the Company pursuant to Section 12, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto duly executed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon such surrender, the Company shall, subject to Section 9, execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned in compliance with Section 9, may be exercised by a new Holder for the purchase of shares of Common Stock without having a new Warrant issued. 3.2. Division and Combination. Subject to Section 9, this Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office or agency of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 3.1 and with Section 9, as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. 3.3. Expenses. The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 3. 3.4. Maintenance of Books. The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office or agency, books for the registration and the registration of transfer of the Warrants. 4. ADJUSTMENTS The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, or the price at which such shares may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. The Company shall give Holder notice of any event described below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 at the time of such event. 4.1. Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. If at any time the Company shall: (a) take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or other distribution of, Additional Shares of Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event, and (ii) the Current Warrant Price shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Current Warrant Price multi- plied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment. 4.2. Certain Other Distributions. (a) If at any time prior to the Expiration Date the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or other distribution of: (i) cash, (ii) any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of its stock or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Convertible Securi- ties or Additional Shares of Common Stock), or (iii) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of its stock or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Convertible Securities or Additional Shares of Common Stock), then Holder shall be entitled to receive such dividend or distribution as if Holder had exercised the Warrant. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value) into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of stock shall be deemed a distribution by the Company to the holders of its Common Stock of such shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section 4.2 and, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock as a part of such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning of Section 4.1. (b) In case the Company shall issue any Common Stock or any rights, options or warrants to all holders of record of its Common Stock entitling all holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such issue, the Current Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for such determination shall be reduced to the amount determined by multiplying such Current Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such Market Price and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such reduced amount to become effective immediately after the close of business on the date fixed for such determination. For the purposes of this clause (b), (i) the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company and (ii) in the case of any rights, options or warrants which expire by their terms not more than 60 days after the date of issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof, no adjustment of the Current Warrant Price shall be made until the expiration or exercise of all rights, options or warrants, whereupon such adjustment shall be made in the manner provided in this clause (b), but only with respect to the shares of Common Stock actually issued pursuant thereto. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event specified above shall occur. In the event that any or all rights, options or warrants covered by this clause (b) are not so issued or expire or terminate before being exercised, the Current Warrant Price then in effect shall be appropriately readjusted. 4.3. Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments under this Section. The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Current Warrant Price provided for in this Section 4: (f) When Adjustments to Be Made. The adjustments required by this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence. (g) Fractional Interests. In computing adjustments under this Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account to the nearest 1/10th of a share. (h) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled. (i) Challenge to Good Faith Determination. Whenever the Board of Directors of the Company shall be required to make a determination in good faith of the fair value of any item under this Section 4, such determination may be challenged in good faith by the Holder, and any dispute shall be resolved by an investment banking firm of recognized national standing selected by the Holder and reasonably acceptable to the Company. 4.4. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other Property"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company, then Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of the Warrant, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate, subject to the Holder's consent, in order to provide for adjustments of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercis- able which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. For purposes of this Section 4.4, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets. 4.5. Other Action Affecting Common Stock. In case at any time or from time to time the Company shall take any action in respect of its Common Stock, other than any action taken in the ordinary course of the Company's business or any action described in this Section 4, which would have a material adverse effect upon the rights of the Holder, the number of shares of Common Stock and/or the purchase price thereof shall be adjusted in such manner as may be equitable in the circumstances, as determined in good faith by an investment bank selected by Holder. 4.6. Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company agrees not to enter into any transaction which, by reason of any adjustment hereunder, would cause the Current Warrant Price to be less than the par value per share of Common Stock. 4.7. No Voting Rights. This Warrant shall not entitle its Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company. 5. NOTICES TO HOLDER 5.1. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, or whenever the price at which a share of such Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of the Warrants, shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall forthwith prepare a certificate to be executed by an executive officer of the Company setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and (if such adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.4 or 4.5) describing the number and kind of any other shares of stock or Other Property for which this Warrant is exercisable, and any change in the purchase price or prices thereof, after giving effect to such adjustment or change. The Company shall promptly cause a signed copy of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder in accordance with Section 14.2. The Company shall keep at its office or agency designated pursuant to Section 12 copies of all such certificates and cause the same to be available for inspection at said office during normal business hours by the Holder, its representatives, or any prospective purchaser of a Warrant designated by the Holder. 5.2. Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or (b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the property, assets or business of the Company to, another corporation, or (c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at least thirty (30) Business Days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least thirty (30) Business Days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in accordance with Section 14.2. 6. NO IMPAIRMENT The Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant. Upon the request of Holder, the Company will at any time during the period this Warrant is outstanding acknowledge in writing, in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, the continuing validity of this Warrant and the obligations of the Company hereunder. 7. RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK From and after the Closing Date, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available for issue upon the exercise of Warrants such number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. All shares of Common Stock which shall be so issuable, when issued upon exercise of any Warrant and payment therefor in accordance with the terms of such Warrant, shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and not subject to preemptive rights. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Current Warrant Price below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall take any corporate action which may be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of such Common Stock at such adjusted Current Warrant Price. Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Current Warrant Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof. 8. TAKING OF RECORD; STOCK AND WARRANT TRANSFER BOOKS In the case of all dividends or other distributions by the Company to the holders of its Common Stock with respect to which any provision of Section 4 refers to the taking of a record of such holders, the Company will in each such case take such a record as of the close of business on a Business Day. The Company will not at any time close its stock transfer books or Warrant transfer books so as to result in preventing or delaying the exercise or transfer of any Warrant. 9. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY The Warrants and the Warrant Stock shall not be transferred, hypothecated or assigned before satisfaction of the conditions specified in this Section 9, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Transfer of any Warrant or any Warrant Stock. Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9. 9.1. Restrictive Legend. The Holder by accepting this Warrant and any Warrant Stock agrees that this Warrant and the Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise hereof may not be assigned or otherwise transferred unless and until (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel for the Holder that such securities may be sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act or (ii) a registration statement relating to such securities has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the Commission. (a) Each certificate for Warrant Stock issuable hereunder shall bear a legend substantially worded as follows unless such securities have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act: "The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") or any state securities laws. The securities may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned, offered, transferred or otherwise distributed for value except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or any state securities laws or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from registration or prospectus delivery requirements under the Act or any state securities laws in respect of which the Company has received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company to such effect. Copies of the agreement covering both the purchase of the securities and restricting their transfer may be obtained at no cost by written request made by the holder of record of this certificate to the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company." (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, the Warrant shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form: "This Warrant and the securities represented hereby have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and may not be transferred in violation of such Act, the rules and regulations thereunder or any state securities laws or the provisions of this Warrant." 9.2. Notice of Proposed Transfers. Prior to any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Warrants or any shares of Restricted Common Stock, the Holder shall give five (5) days' prior written notice (a "Transfer Notice") to the Company of Holder's intention to effect such Transfer, describing the manner and circumstances of the proposed Transfer, and obtain from counsel to Holder an opinion that the proposed Transfer of such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock may be effected without registration under the Securities Act or state securities laws. After the Company's receipt of the Transfer Notice and opinion, such Holder shall thereupon be entitled to Transfer such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock, in accordance with the terms of the Transfer Notice. Each certificate, if any, evidencing such shares of Restricted Common Stock issued upon such Transfer and the Warrant issued upon such Transfer shall bear the restrictive legends set forth in Section 9.1, unless in the opinion of such counsel such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act. 9.3. Required Registration. Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission not later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the Closing Date, a Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and shall use its best efforts to cause the Commission to declare such Registration Statement effective in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement. 9.4. Termination of Restrictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 9, the restrictions imposed by this Section upon the transferability of the Warrants, the Warrant Stock and the Restricted Common Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants) and the legend requirements of Section 9.1 shall terminate as to any particular Warrant or share of Warrant Stock or Restricted Common Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants) (i) when and so long as such security shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and disposed of pursuant thereto or (ii) when the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel that such shares may be transferred without registration thereof under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Whenever the restrictions imposed by Section 9 shall terminate as to this Warrant, as hereinabove provided, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company upon written request of the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Warrant bearing the following legend in place of the restrictive legend set forth hereon: "THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABIL- ITY OF THE WITHIN WARRANT CONTAINED IN SECTION 9 HEREOF TERMINATED ON ________, 19__, AND ARE OF NO FURTHER FORCE AND EFFECT." All Warrants issued upon registration of transfer, division or combination of, or in substitution for, any Warrant or Warrants entitled to bear such legend shall have a similar legend endorsed thereon. Whenever the restrictions imposed by this Section shall terminate as to any share of Restricted Common Stock, as hereinabove provided, the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company, at the Company's expense, a new certificate representing such Common Stock not bearing the restrictive legends set forth in Section 9.1. 9.5. Listing on Securities Exchange. If the Company shall list any shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange, it will, at its expense, list thereon, maintain and, when necessary, increase such listing of, all shares of Common Stock issued or, to the extent permissible under the applicable securities exchange rules, issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant so long as any shares of Common Stock shall be so listed during the Exercise Period. 10. SUPPLYING INFORMATION The Company shall cooperate with Holder in supplying such information as may be reasonably necessary for Holder to complete and file any information reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the Commission as a condition to the availability of an exemption from the Securities Act for the sale of any Warrant or Restricted Common Stock. 11. LOSS OR MUTILATION Upon receipt by the Company from Holder of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (it being understood that the written agreement of the Holder shall be sufficient indemnity), and in case of mutilation upon surrender and cancellation hereof, the Company will execute and deliver in lieu hereof a new Warrant of like tenor to Holder; provided, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity shall be required if this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation. 12. OFFICE OF THE COMPANY As long as any of the Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall maintain an office or agency (which may be the principal executive offices of the Company) where the Warrants may be presented for exercise, registration of transfer, division or combination as provided in this Warrant, such office to be initially located at 1720 East Garry, Suite #201, Santa Ana, California 92705, fax: (949) 475-4518, provided, however, that the Company shall provide prior written notice to Holder of a change in address no less than thirty (30) days prior to such change. 13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by Holder to purchase shares of Common Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. 14. MISCELLANEOUS 14.1. Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder's rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding all rights hereunder terminate on the Expiration Date. If the Company fails to make, when due, any payments provided for hereunder, or fails to comply with any other provision of this Warrant, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any direct and indirect losses, damages, costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder. 14.2.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Purchaser hereby agree as follows: 1. Definitions. (a) As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings: (i) "Effectiveness Deadline" shall have the meaning set forth in section 2(a)(i) hereof. (ii) "Filing Deadline" shall have the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(i) hereof.

(iv) "Purchase Price" means the aggregate purchase price paid by the Purchaser for the Initial Shares, the Additional Shares, the Conditional Warrant and the Warrants. (v) "Register," "Registered," and "Registration" refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a Registration Statement or Statements in compliance with the Securities Act and pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule providing for offering securities on a continuous basis ("Rule 415"), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such Registration Statement by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). (vi) "Registrable Securities" means the Shares and the Warrants. (vii) "Registration Statement" means the Initial Registration Statement and the Warrant Registration Statement. (viii) "Warrant Registration Statement" means a registration statement or registration statements of the Company filed under the Securities Act covering Registrable Securities relating to the Warrants. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set-forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement. 2. Registration. (a) Mandatory Registrations. (i) Initial Registration Statement. The Company shall prepare, and, as soon as practicable but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the Initial Closing Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) (the "Filing Deadline"), file with the Commission an Initial Registration Statement or Initial Registration Statements (as necessary) on Form S-1, covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities. In the event that Form S-1 is unavailable for such a registration, the Company shall use such other form as is available for such a registration. Any Initial Registration Statement prepared pursuant hereto shall register for resale at least that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (x) two and, (y) the sum of (i) the maximum number of Shares that are issuable upon conversion of the Initial Shares and the Additional Shares on the date of filing, and (ii) the maximum number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, in each case, without regard to any limitation on any holder's ability to convert any of the Warrants or the Preferred Shares and without regard to whether any or all of such Preferred Shares or Warrants have been issued to Purchaser (on the date calculated, the "Minimum Conversion Amount"). Such Registration Statement shall state that, in accordance with Rule 416 under the Securities Act, it also covers such indeterminate number of additional Shares as may become issuable upon conversion of such Preferred Shares or exercise of such Warrants (i) resulting from any adjustment in the applicable Conversion Price of such Preferred Shares or the Exercise Price of such Warrants or (ii) to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits or stock dividends. If at any time the Minimum Conversion Amount exceeds the total number of Shares so registered, the Company shall, within five (5) business days after receipt of a written notice from the Purchaser, either (i) amend the Registration Statement or Registration Statements filed by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence, if such Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission at that time, to register all of the Shares into which the Initial Shares, the Additional Shares and the Warrants may be converted or exercised, as applicable, or (ii) if such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission at that time, file with the Commission an additional Registration Statement on Form S-1, or such other appropriate form, to register the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Initial Shares, Additional Shares, and Warrants may be converted or exercised, as applicable, that exceed the number of Shares already registered. The Company shall use its best efforts to have the Initial Registration Statement declared effective within the earliest to occur of (i) ninety (90) days following the Initial Closing Date (ii) if the Commission elects not to conduct a review of the Initial Registration Statement, the date which is three (3) business days after the date upon which either the Company or its counsel is so notified, whether orally or in writing; or (iii) if the Initial Registration Statement is reviewed by the Commission, the date which is three (3) business days after the date upon which the Company or its counsel is notified by the Commission, whether orally or in writing, that the Commission has no further comments with respect to the Initial Registration Statement or that the Initial Registration Statement may be declared effective. The earliest of such dates is referred to herein as the "Required Effective Date." Notwithstanding the use of the terms "Required Filing Date" and "Required Effective Date" herein, the Company shall at all times use its best efforts to file each required Registration Statement or amendment to a Registration Statement as soon as possible after the Closing Date or after the date the Company becomes obligated to file such Registration Statement or amendment, as the case may be, and to cause each such Registration Statement or amendment to become effective as soon as possible thereafter. No securities of the Company other than the Registrable Securities shall be included in any such Registration Statement. (ii) The Company shall keep each Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 at all times until such date as is the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities have been sold, (ii) the date on which the Registrable Securities (in the opinion of counsel to the Purchaser) may be immediately sold without restriction (including without limitation as to volume by each holder thereof) without registration under the Securities Act and (iii) the date which is twenty four (24) months following the date on which the Registration Statement was declared effective (the "Registration Period"). (b) Payments by the Company. (i) (A) If the Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities is not filed in proper form with the Commission on or prior to the Filing Deadline, (B) if the Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities is not effective on or prior to the Effectiveness Deadline, (C) if the number of Shares listed for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board or the NASDAQ SmallCap Stock Market, as applicable, or reserved by the Company for issuance shall be insufficient, for any period of five (5) consecutive days at any time after the Effectiveness Deadline, for issuance upon the conversion of the Initial Shares, the Additional Shares and the exercise of the Warrants, or (D) upon the occurrence of a Blackout Event (as described in Section 3(f) or Section 3(g) below), for any period of five (5) consecutive days at any time after the Effectiveness Deadline (each of the events described in clauses (A) through (D) of this paragraph are referred to herein as a "Registration Default"), the Company will make payments to the Purchaser in such amounts and at such times as shall be determined pursuant to this Section 2(b). (ii) The amount (the "Periodic Amount") to be paid by the Company to the Purchaser as of each thirty (30) day period during which a Registration Default shall be in effect (each such period, a "Default Period") shall be equal to (x) with respect to any Registration Default described in Section 2(b)(i) clause (A) or (B), two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price paid by the Purchaser and (y) with respect to any Registration Default described in Section 2(b)(i) clause (C) or (D), two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price paid by the Purchaser of any securities affected by such event as described in Section 2(b)(i) clause (C) or (D); provided that, with respect to any Default Period during which the relevant Registration Defaults shall have been cured, the Periodic Amount shall be pro rated for the number of days during such period during which the Registration Defaults were pending; and provided, however, that the payment of such Periodic Amounts shall not relieve the Company from its continuing obligations to register the Warrants and Shares pursuant to Section 2(a). (iii) Each Periodic Amount shall be payable by the Company in cash or other immediately available funds to the Purchaser monthly, without demand therefor by the Purchaser. (iv) The parties acknowledge that the damages which may be incurred by the Purchaser if the Registration Statement is not filed by the Filing Deadline, if the Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Effectiveness Deadline, or if the provisions of Section 3(e) or 3(f) become applicable, may be difficult to ascertain. The parties agree that the Periodic Amount represents a reasonable estimate on the part of the parties, as of the date of this Agreement, of the amount of such damages. (c) Piggyback Registration. (i) If at any time or from time to time, the Company shall determine to register any of its securities, for its own account or the account of any of its shareholders, other than a Registration relating solely to employee share option plans or pursuant to an acquisition transaction on Form S-4, the Company will: (A) provide to the Purchaser written notice thereof as soon as practicable prior to filing the Registration Statement; and (B) include in such Registration Statement and in any underwriting involved therein, all of the Registrable Securities specified in a written request by the Purchaser made within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company. (ii) If the Registration is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Purchaser as a part of the written notice given pursuant to this Section. In such event, the rights of the Purchaser hereunder shall include participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. To the extent that the Purchaser proposes to distribute its securities through such underwriting, the Purchaser shall (together with the Company and any other security holders of the Company distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, if the managing underwriter of such underwriting determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be offered in connection with such underwriting, the managing underwriter may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the Registration and underwriting (provided, however, (a) the Registrable Securities shall not be excluded from such underwritten offering prior to any securities held by officers and directors of the Company or their affiliates, (b) the Registrable Securities shall be entitled to at least the same priority in an underwritten offering as any of the Company's existing security holders, and (c) the Company shall not enter into any agreement that would provide any security holder with priority in connection with an underwritten offering greater than the priority granted to the Purchaser hereunder). The Company shall so advise any of its other security holders who are distributing their securities through such underwriting pursuant to their respective piggyback registration rights, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities and other securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated among the Purchaser and all other security holders of the Company in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities held by the Purchaser and such other security holders at the time of the filing of the registration statement. If the Purchaser disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company. Any Registrable Securities so excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such Registration. (d) Eligibility for Form S-1. The Company represents and warrants that it meets all of the requirements for the use of Form S-1 for the Registration, of the sale by the Purchaser of the Registrable Securities and any transferee who purchases the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall file all reports required to be filed by the Company with the Commission in a timely manner, and shall take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such eligibility for the use of Form S-1. (e) Priority in filing. From the date hereof until one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of the Initial Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Agreement, provided, however, that such one hundred eighty day period shall be extended by the number of days after the effective date of such Initial Registration Statement when the Purchaser is not permitted to utilize the prospectus or otherwise to resell Registrable Securities, the Company shall not permit the registration of any of its securities under the Securities Act to be filed or to become effective, other than those covered by this Agreement, without the prior written approval of the Purchaser. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Company may permit a registration statement to become effective during the foregoing period provided that (i) such registration statement relates to a firm commitment underwritten offering of the Company's securities that provides the Company with at least ten million dollars ($10,000,000), or (ii) ninety (90) such registration statement was filed at least fifteen (15) days have passed after the Initial Registration Statement has been effective, and shall not become effective until the Equity Line Free Exercise Date (as defined in Section 4i of the Securities Purchase Agreement) or thereafter, and such registration statement relates to the issuance of securities to Swartz Private Equity, LLC pursuant to an Investment Agreement, a Registration Rights Agreement, Warrant to Purchase 490,000 Shares of Common Stock and the associated documents. 3. Obligations of the Company. In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall do each of the following: (a) Prepare and file with the Commission the Registration Statements required by Section 2 of this Agreement and such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectuses used in connection with the Registration Statement, each in such form as to which the Purchaser and its counsel shall not have objected, as may be necessary to keep the Registration effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during the Registration Period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all of the Registrable Securities and all of the Warrants of the Company covered by the Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities and all of such Warrants have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in the Registration Statement; (b) Furnish to the Purchaser, if the Registrable Securities of the Purchaser are included in the Registration Statement, and its legal counsel identified to the Company, promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the Commission, or received by the Company, a copy of the Registration Statement, each preliminary prospectus, each final prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents, as the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of its Registrable Securities and Warrants; (c) Furnish to the Purchaser and its counsel copies of any correspondence between the Company and the Commission with respect to any registration statement or amendment or supplement thereto filed pursuant to this Agreement; (d) Use all best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Purchaser may reasonably request, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof at all times during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period and (iv) take all other actions necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions, provided that in connection therewith, the Company shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to file a general consent to the service of process in any jurisdiction; (e) List such securities on the OTC Bulletin Board and all the other national securities exchanges on which any securities of the Company are then listed, and file any filings required by the OTC Bulletin Board and/or such other exchanges. (f) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, notify each Purchaser of the occurrence of any event of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and to use its best efforts to promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement or other appropriate filing with the Commission to correct such untrue statement of omission, and to deliver a number of copies of such supplement or amendment to the Purchaser as the Purchaser may reasonably request; (g) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, notify the Purchaser who holds Warrants or Registrable Securities being sold (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the underwriters) of the issuance by the Commission or any stop order or other suspension of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement at the earliest possible time, and to use its best efforts to promptly obtain the withdrawal of such stop order or other suspension of effectiveness; (h) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, notify the Purchaser who holds Registrable Securities being sold (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance by the Commission or any stop order or other suspension of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement at the earliest possible time, and to use its best efforts to promptly obtain the withdrawal of such stop order or other suspension of effectiveness (the occurrence of any of the events described in paragraphs (f) and (g) of this Section 3 is referred to herein as a "Blackout Event"); (i) During the period commencing upon (i) the Purchaser's receipt of a notification pursuant to Section 3(f) above, or (ii) the entry of a stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of the Registration Statement described in Section 3(g) above, and ending at such time as (y) the Company shall have completed the applicable filings (and if applicable, such filings shall have been declared effective) and shall have delivered to the Purchaser the documents required pursuant to Section 3(f) above, or (z), such stop order or other suspension of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been removed, the Company shall be liable to remit the payments required to be paid pursuant to Section 2(b) above; (j) If the offering is underwritten, at the request of a Purchaser, to furnish on the date that Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale pursuant to such registration: (i) an opinion dated such date of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriters and to any Purchaser selling Registrable Securities in connection with such underwriting, stating that such registration statement has become effective under the Securities Act and that (A) to the best knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness thereof has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or contemplated under the Securities Act and (B) the registration statement, the related prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereof comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act (except that such counsel need not express any opinion as to financial statements or other financial data contained therein) and (ii) a letter dated such date from the Company's independent public accountants addressed to the underwriters and to the Purchaser, stating that they are independent public accountants within the meaning of the Securities Act and that, in the opinion of such accountants, the financial statements of the Company included in the registration statement or the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof, comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act, and such letter shall additionally cover such other financial matters (including information as to the period ending no more than five (5) business days prior to the date of such letter) with respect to such registration as such underwriters may reasonably request; and (k) Cooperate with the Purchaser to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates for the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and to enable such certificates for the Registrable Securities to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Purchaser may reasonably request, and registered in such names as the Purchaser may request; and, within three (3) business days after a Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the Commission, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to the Purchaser) an appropriate instruction and opinion of such counsel. 4. Obligations of the Purchaser. In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Purchaser shall have the following obligations: (a) Take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate the disposition by the Purchaser of the Warrants and the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. (b) Furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Warrants and Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of the Warrants and the Registrable Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Warrants and such Registrable Securities, and the Purchaser shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least five (5) days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify the Purchaser of the information the Company included in the Registration Statement. (c) The Purchaser, by its acceptance of the Warrants or Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder. (d) The Purchaser agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(f) or 3(g) above, it will immediately discontinue disposition of its Warrants or Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(f) or 3(g) shall be furnished to the Purchaser. 5. Expenses of Registration. All expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions and other fees and expenses of investment bankers and other than brokerage commissions, incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Section 3, but including, without limitation, all registration, listing, and qualification fees, printing and accounting fees, and the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, and the fees of one counsel to the Purchaser with respect to each Registration Statement filed pursuant hereto, shall be borne by the Company. 6. Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement: (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, each of its officers, directors, shareholders and members, and each person, if any, who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an "Indemnified Person"), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (joint or several) incurred (collectively, "Claims") to which any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the Commission) or the omission to state therein any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state or foreign securities law or any rule or regulation under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state or foreign securities law (the matters in foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, "Violations"). The Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 6(b) below, reimburse the Purchaser, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal and other costs, expenses and disbursements in giving testimony or furnishing documents in response to a subpoena or otherwise, including without limitation, the costs, expenses and disbursements, as and when incurred, of investigating, preparing or defending any such action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether or not in connection with litigation in which the Purchaser is a party), incurred by it in connection with the investigation or defense of any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a) shall not (i) apply to any Claim arising out of or based upon a modification which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) with respect to any preliminary prospectus, inure to the benefit of any such person from whom the person asserting any such Claim purchased the Registrable Securities that are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any person controlling such person) if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus was corrected in the final prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, if such final prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof; (iii) be available to the extent that such Claim is based upon a failure of the Purchaser to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof; or (iv) apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 9. The Purchaser will indemnify the Company and its officers and directors against any Claims arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company, by or on behalf of the Purchaser, expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, subject to such limitations and conditions as are applicable to the Indemnification provided by the Company in this Section 6. (b) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and to the extent that the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person, provided, however, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. In such event, the Company shall pay for only one separate legal counsel for the Purchaser, and such legal counsel shall be selected by the Purchaser. The failure to deliver written notice to an indemnifying party within a reasonable time after the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced in its ability to such action. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred and is due and payable. (c) No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, 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 Person of an unconditional and irrevocable release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any provisions relating to indemnification or contribution contained in the underwriting agreements entered into among the Company, the underwriters and the Purchaser in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in such underwriting agreements shall be controlling as to the Registrable Securities included in the public offering; provided, however, that if, as a result of this Section 6(d), the Purchaser, its officers, directors, shareholders, members or any person controlling the Purchaser is or are held liable with respect to any Claim for which they would be entitled to indemnification hereunder but for this Section 6(d) in an amount which exceeds the aggregate proceeds received by the Purchaser from the sale of Registrable Securities included in a registration pursuant to such underwriting agreement (the "Excess Liability"), the Company shall reimburse the Purchaser for such Excess Liability. 7. Contribution. To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited under applicable law, the indemnifying party agrees to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the Indemnified Person on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Claim, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact on which such Claim is based relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the Indemnified Person, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Notwithstanding the forgoing, (a) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the payor would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6, (b) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation and (c) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities. The Company and the Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro-rata allocation (even if the Purchaser and any other party were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section. 8. Reports Under Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Purchaser the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the Purchaser to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration ("Rule 144"), the Company agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; (ii) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to the Purchaser so long as the Purchaser owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or periodic report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Purchaser to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration. 9. Assignment of the Registration Rights. The rights to have the Company register Warrants or Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be automatically assigned by Purchaser to any transferee of all or any portion of the Initial Shares, Additional Shares, Warrants or the underlying Common Stock held by Purchaser if: (a) Purchaser agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment; (b) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (i) the name and address of such transferee or assignee and (ii) the Securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned; (c) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by clause (b) of this sentence, the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein; and (d) the transfer of the relevant Securities complies with the restrictions set forth in Section 4 of the Securities Purchase Agreement. 10. Amendment of Registration Rights. 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 the Purchaser. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be binding upon Purchaser and the Company. 11. Miscellaneous.
