WHEREAS, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement  (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), dated as of March 28, 2008, pursuant to which the Company conducted a private offering solely to accredited investors pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of its series A preferred stock and series A and series B warrants; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Sections 4(d), (e) and (f) of the Series A Warrant to Purchase Shares of Common Stock of the Company that were delivered to the Purchasers (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Warrant”), the investors had certain anti-dilution protection in the event the Company issues any Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at a price per share less than the Warrant Price then in effect; and
 
WHEREAS, the Company has requested that the Majority Holders amend the Warrant to delete Sections 4(d), (e) and (f) thereof; and agree that in lieu of such provisions the Majority Holders of the Warrant shall have a right to pre-approve any issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents at a price less than the Warrant Price then in effect and give retroactive effect to such amendment; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 11 of the Warrant, no provision of the Warrant may be amended without the written consent of the Company and the Majority Holders; and

2.           Effective Time.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, due to an administrative error, the Warrant was not formally amended on December 31, 2008, and that, in accordance with the intention of the parties, this Amendment shall be retroactive from and including, December 31, 2008.
