Except for the Subsidiaries, the Company does not presently own or control, directly or indirectly, any interest in any other subsidiary, corporation, association or other business entity.

3.2 Authorization; Enforcement. (a) The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to perform its obligations under this Agreement, to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to issue the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof; (b) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation the issuance of the Common Stock) have been duly authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and no further consent or authorization of the Company, its Board or its shareholders is required that has not or will not be obtained prior to the Closing; (c) this Agreement has been duly executed by the Company; and (d) this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the application of general principles of equity.

3.3 Capitalization. The number of shares and type of all authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company, and all Common Stock and preferred shares reserved for issuance under the Company’s various option and incentive plans, together with the schedules to this Agreement. There are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire, any Common Stock or preferred shares, or contracts,

commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional Common Stock or preferred shares, or securities or rights convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock or preferred shares. The issue and sale of the Common Stock hereunder will not, immediately or with the passage of time, obligate the Company to issue any Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other than the Investors) and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities.

3.4 Issuance of Common Stock. The Common Stock purchased under this Agreement are duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear from all taxes, liens, claims, encumbrances and charges with respect to the issue thereof, will not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of stockholders of the Company, and will not impose personal liability on the holders thereof. The Common Stock, when issued in accordance, and upon receipt by the Company of the consideration set forth therein, shall have been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear from all taxes, liens, claims, encumbrances and charges with respect to the issue thereof, will not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of stockholders of the Company, and will not impose personal liability on the holders thereof.

3.5 No Conflicts; No Violation.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Common Stock) will not: (i) conflict with or result in a violation of any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or the certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents of any Subsidiary; (ii) violate or conflict with, result in a breach of any provision of, constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, could become a default) under or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of any material agreement, indenture, patent, patent license or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party; or (iii) result in a material violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including United States federal and state securities or “blue sky” laws and regulations and regulations of any self-regulatory organizations to which the Company or its securities are subject) applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or by which any property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or affected (except for such conflicts, breaches, defaults, terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect).

Except as specifically contemplated by this Agreement and as required under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws or any listing agreement with any securities exchange or automated quotation system, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency or any regulatory or self regulatory agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, or to issue and sell the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company or any Subsidiary is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the date hereof.

3.6 Absence of Certain Changes. Except as otherwise previously disclosed, since the date of this Agreement (including any subsequent amendments or supplements thereto) there has been no material adverse change in the assets, liabilities, business, properties, operations, financial condition, prospects or results of operations of the Company or any Subsidiary.

3.7 Absence of Litigation. Except as otherwise disclosed, there is no action, suit, claim, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective officers or directors acting as such that could, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.8 Tax Status. Except as otherwise disclosed, each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has timely made or filed all federal, state and foreign income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject (unless and only to the extent that the Company or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and unreported taxes) and has timely paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith, and has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. Except as otherwise disclosed, to the knowledge of the Company, there are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company and each Subsidiary know of no basis for any such claim. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has executed a waiver with respect to the statute of limitations relating to the assessment or collection of any foreign, federal, state or local tax. To the Company’s knowledge, none of the Company’s and none of any Subsidiary’s tax returns are presently being audited by any taxing authority.

Except as otherwise disclosed, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has taken any action which would give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or similar payments relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, except for dealings with the Placement Agent, whose commissions and fees will be paid by the Company.

3.10 Investment Company Status. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is, and upon consummation of the sale of the Securities will not be, an “investment company,” a company controlled by an “investment company” or an “affiliated person” of, or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

3.11 Placement Agent. The Company has engaged, consented to and authorized the Placement Agent to act as agent for the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company will pay the Placement Agent a commission in the form of advisory fees in connection with the Offering, and the Company agrees to indemnify the Placement Agent against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

3.12 Financial Statements.

Each report required to be filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, for the twelve months preceding the date hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was required by law to file such reports) (the “Company Financial Statements”) present fairly present in all material respects the financial condition and position of the Company at the dates and for the periods indicated; and have been prepared in conformity with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered thereby (except as may be disclosed therein or in the notes thereto, and, in the case of quarterly financial statements, as permitted by Form 10-Q under the Exchange Act), and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments.

3.13 Disclosure. This Agreement, the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and all other documents delivered to the Subscriber in connection herewith at the Closing, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. There are no facts that, individually or in the aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect that have not been disclosed in the Offering Documents (including the Schedules and Exhibits thereto) or any other documents delivered to the Subscriber in connection herewith or therewith at the Closing.

3.14 Securities Law Exemption. Assuming the truth and accuracy of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties in this Agreement and the truth and accuracy of each of the other Subscribers’ representations and warranties set forth in the subscription agreements executed by such other Subscribers, the offer, sale and issuance of the Securities as contemplated by this Agreement and the other subscription agreements are exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and applicable state securities laws, and neither the Company nor any authorized agent acting on its behalf has taken or will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemption.

3.15 No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company nor any of its respective affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers or sales in any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would require registration under the Securities Act. The issuance of the Securities will not be integrated with any past issuance of the Company’s securities for purposes of the Securities Act. Except as otherwise disclosed, the Company has not sold or issued any Common Stock, preferred shares, convertible notes or warrants during the past six months, including sales pursuant to Rule 144A, Regulation D or Regulation S under the Act, other than shares issued pursuant to employee benefit plans, if any.

3.16 Books and Records. The books, records and accounts of each of the Company and its Subsidiaries accurately and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, the transactions in, and dispositions of, the assets of, and the results of operations of, the Company and its Subsidiaries, all to the extent required by generally accepted accounting principles.

3.17 No Change of Control. The Company will not undertake a Change of Control (as defined below) transaction for a period of twenty four (24) months from the Closing of the Offering without the approval of the Placement Agent.

“Change in Control” shall mean (i) the acquisition by any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3), of ownership of stock of the Company possessing more than 50% of the total voting power of the capital stock of the Company (an “Acquirer”); or (ii) (a) any consolidation or merger of the Company, in which the stockholders of the Company immediately before the consolidation or merger will not own 50% or more of the voting shares of the continuing or surviving corporation (or if the transaction is structured as merger or consolidation of subsidiaries, 50% or more of the continuing or surviving parent corporation) immediately after such consolidation or merger, or (b) any sale, lease, exchange, or other transfer (in one transaction or series of related transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

4.5 The Company’s agreement with each Subscriber is a separate agreement and the sale of Securities to each Subscriber is a separate sale.

VI.	CONDITIONS TO OBLIGATIONS OF THE SUBSCRIBER

The Subscriber’s obligation to purchase Securities at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment on or prior to the Closing of the following conditions, which conditions may be waived at the option of the Subscriber to the extent permitted by law:

6.1 Representations and Warranties Correct. The representations and warranties made by the Company herein shall be true and correct in all material respects when made, and shall be true and correct in all material respects on the Closing Date with the same force and effect as if they had been made on and as of said date.

6.2 Covenants. All covenants, agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement to be performed by the Company on or prior to such purchase shall have been performed or complied with in all material respects.

6.3 No Legal Order Pending. There shall not then be in effect any legal or other order enjoining or restraining the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.4 No Law Prohibiting or Restricting Such Sale. There shall not be in effect any law, rule or regulation prohibiting or restricting such sale or requiring any consent or approval of any person which shall not have been obtained to issue the Common Stock (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement).

6.5 Legal Opinion. On the Closing Date, the Company will provide an opinion reasonably acceptable to the Subscribers and the Placement Agent from the Company’s legal counsel opining on the availability of an exemption from registration under the 1933 Act as it relates to the offer and issuance of the Securities and other matters reasonably requested by the Placement Agent.

6.6 Officer’s Certificates. The Company shall have delivered a Certificate, executed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, dated as of the Closing Date, certifying to the Subscribers and Placement Agent the fulfillment of the conditions specified herein and the Company shall have each delivered a Certificate, executed by the Chief Executive Officers, dated as of the Closing Date, certifying to the Subscribers and Placement Agent the representations and warranties and conditions set forth in the Agreement.

VII.	REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Registration.

If at any time until two years after the Closing Date there is not an effective registration statement covering all of the Securities or the Securities are not saleable under Rule 144 and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities, but excluding Forms S-4 or S-8 and similar forms which do not permit such registration, then the Company shall send to each holder of any of the Securities written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen calendar days after receipt of such notice, any such holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of the Securities such holder requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights and any cutbacks in accordance with guidance provided by the Securities and Exchange Commission (including, but not limited to, Rule 415). The obligations of the Company under this Section may be waived by any holder of any of the Securities entitled to registration rights under this Section 7.1. The holders whose Securities are included or required to be included in such registration statement are granted the same rights, benefits, liquidated or other damages and indemnification granted to other holders of securities included in such registration statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the registration rights granted hereunder to the holders of Securities shall not be applicable for such times as such Securities may be sold by the holder thereof without restriction pursuant to Section 144(b)(1) of the 1933 Act. In no event shall the liability of any holder of Securities or permitted successor in connection with any Securities included in any such registration statement be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Subscriber upon the sale of the Securities sold pursuant to such registration or such lesser amount applicable to other holders of Securities included in such registration statement. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Section 7, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses (if required), fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the NASD, transfer taxes, and fees of transfer agents and registrars, are called “Registration Expenses.” All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of registrable securities are called "Selling Expenses." The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration statement under Section 7. Selling Expenses in connection with each registration statement under Section 7 shall be borne by the holder and will be apportioned among such holders in proportion to the number of Common Stock included therein for a holder relative to all the Securities included therein for all selling holders, or as all holders may agree

7.2 Indemnification. In the event that any Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this section:

To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such holder and each person, if any, who controls such holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, and the Company will pay to each such holder, underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this section shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person.

To the extent permitted by law, each selling holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter, any other holder selling securities in such registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this section, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this section shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, that, in no event shall any indemnity under this section exceed the greater of the cash value of the (i) gross proceeds from the offering received by such holder or (ii) such holder’s investment pursuant to this Agreement as set forth on the signature page attached hereto.

Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this section of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this section, 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 the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the indemnifying party and approved by the indemnified party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this section, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this section.

If the indemnification provided for in this section is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The obligations of the Company and Subscriber under this section shall survive the completion of any offering of Securities in a registration statement.

8.7 Removal of Legends. Upon the earlier of (i) registration for resale as set forth herein, or (ii) an exemption under Rule 144 becoming available, the Company shall (A) deliver to the transfer agent for the Securities (the “Transfer Agent”) irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall reissue a certificate representing Common Stock without legends upon receipt by such Transfer Agent of the legended certificates for such shares, together with either (1) a customary representation by the Subscriber that Rule 144 applies to the Common Stock represented thereby or (2) a statement by the Subscriber that such Subscriber has sold the Common Stock represented thereby in accordance with the Plan of Distribution contained in the registration statement, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more blanket opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act subject to such investor and broker representations and notifications that counsel may reasonably request. From and after the earlier of such dates, upon a Subscriber’s written request, the Company shall promptly cause certificates evidencing the Subscriber’s securities to be replaced with certificates which do not bear such restrictive legends provided the provisions of either clause (i) or clause (ii) above, as applicable, are satisfied with respect to such Common Stock.

8.8 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties and their successors and assigns. The Company will not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Subscriber and the Subscriber may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subscriber may assign all or part of its rights and obligations hereunder to any of its “affiliates,” as that term is defined under the Securities Act, without the consent of the Company so long as the affiliate is an accredited investor (within the meaning of Regulation D) and agrees in writing to be bound by this Agreement.

8.12 Equitable Relief. The Company recognizes that, if it fails to perform or discharge any of its obligations under this Agreement, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Subscriber. The Company therefore agrees that the Subscribers are entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case.

8.13 Acceptance. Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Subscriber, this Agreement shall become a binding obligation of the Subscriber with respect to the purchase of the Securities as herein provided, subject to acceptance by the Company; subject, however, to the right hereby reserved to the Company to enter into the same agreements with other Subscribers and to add and/or delete other persons as Subscribers.

8.14 Waiver. It is agreed that a waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate, or be construed, as a waiver of any subsequent breach by that same party.

8.17 Exculpation Among Subscribers. The Subscriber agrees, acknowledges and understands that it is not relying on any of the other Subscribers in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company. The Subscriber agrees, acknowledges and understands that none of the other Subscribers nor their respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents or employees shall be liable to the Subscriber for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Securities or the execution of or performance under this Agreement, nor shall the Subscriber be liable to the other Subscribers for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by the Subscriber in connection with the purchase of the Securities or the execution of or performance under this Agreement.

8.18 Press Release and 8-K. By 8:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the first business day following the Closing Date, the Company shall, in consultation with the Placement Agent, issue a press release disclosing the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and within four (4) business days following the Closing Date, the Company shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC disclosing such information required by Form 8-K.

8.19 Several Obligations. The obligations of each Subscriber under any Offering agreements are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Subscriber, and no Subscriber shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Subscriber under any Offering agreement. Nothing contained herein or in any other Offering agreement, and no action taken by any Subscriber pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Subscribers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscribers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Offering agreements. Each Subscriber confirms that it has independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Offering agreements, and it shall not be necessary for any other Subscriber to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Subscribers has been provided with the same Offering agreements for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Subscribers and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Subscriber.

8.20 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
