Each Purchaser, severally, but not jointly, agrees to purchase from the Company (i) the number of Preferred Shares set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name in column (2) on the Purchaser Schedule and (ii) Warrants to acquire that number of Warrant Shares as set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name in column (3) on the Purchaser Schedule.

The date and time of the First Closing (the “First Closing Date”) shall be 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the first (1st) Trading Day on which the conditions to such Closing pursuant to Sections 6(a) and (c) are satisfied or waived in writing as provided elsewhere herein, or such earlier date as is mutually agreed to by the Company and the Purchaser. The date and time of each Additional Closing (each, an “Additional Closing Date”, and together with the First Closing Date, a “Closing Date”) shall be 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the first (1st) Trading Day on which the conditions to such Closing pursuant to Section 6 are satisfied or waived in writing as provided elsewhere herein, or such earlier date as is mutually agreed to by the Company and the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares. So long as the Company is not in violation of any provision of or in default under the Certificate of Designations, the Company shall give the Purchasers no less than ten (10) days’ notice prior to each Additional Closing that the Company intends to conduct an Additional Closing.

(b)          Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Preferred Shares and the Warrants to be purchased by each of the Purchasers at each Closing shall be the amount set forth opposite each such Purchaser’s name in column (4) on the Purchaser Schedule (the “Purchase Price”).

(c)          Deliveries. On or prior to each Closing Date, (i) each of the Purchasers shall pay the applicable Purchase Price to the Company, via wire transfer or a certified check, immediately available funds equal to the such Purchaser’s applicable Purchase Price, less, in the case of any applicable Purchaser, any applicable amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4(j), (ii) Company shall (A) deliver to such Purchaser a certificate representing such aggregate number of Preferred Shares as is set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name in column (2) of the Purchaser Schedule, (B) deliver to such Purchaser an executed Warrant, and (C) deliver to each of the Purchasers the other documents, instruments and certificates set forth in Section 6 duly executed on behalf of the Company; and (iii) the Company shall deliver to Alexander Capital, L.P. (the “Placement Agent”) the applicable Placement Agent Fee (as defined in Section 4(j)(ix)) and a Warrant (the “Agent Warrant”) to purchase up to eight percent (8%) of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable to such Purchasers on such Closing Date upon conversion of the Preferred Shares issued to such Purchasers at a price per share of the Common Stock on such Closing Date, which Agent Warrant shall have the same terms as the Warrants issued to such Purchasers, except that the exercise price of such Agent Warrant shall be 110% of the lessor of (a) the price at which the Preferred Shares are issued on such Closing Date or (b) the exercise price of the Warrants issued to such Purchasers on the Closing Date.

Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with respect to only itself, represents and warrants to the Company with respect to only itself that:

(a)          Organization; Validity; Enforcement.

(c)          Short Sale. Such Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that at no time prior to the date of this Agreement has any Restricted Person (as defined herein) engaged in or effected, in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, any (i) “short sale” (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO of the 1934 Act (as defined herein)) of the Common Stock or (ii) hedging transaction, which establishes a Net Short Position (as defined herein) with respect to the Common Stock.

Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

Such Purchaser (i) is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities including a total loss thereof, (ii) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the proposed investment in the Securities and (iii) has had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the officers of the Company concerning the financial condition and business of the Company and others matters related to an investment in the Securities. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Purchaser or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in Section 3 below. Such Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Securities.

(g)          Transfer or Sale.

No statement or information contained in this Agreement, the SEC Reports, any other Transaction Document or any other document, certificate or statement furnished to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company in writing for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and/or the other Transaction Documents contained, as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was made or furnished, as the case may be, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein, taken as a whole, not materially misleading. There is no fact known to the Company that could have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been expressly disclosed herein, in the other Transaction Documents, or in any other documents, certificates and statements furnished to the Purchasers for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, as disclosed in the SEC Reports and the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes accompanying such SEC Reports, the Company has received a “going concern” qualification from its independent registered public accounting firm, which has determined that the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is uncertain based on certain factors disclosed in such SEC Reports, financial statements and notes.

(t)          Intellectual Property. The Company has, or has rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, service marks, trade names, trade secrets, inventions, copyrights, licenses and other intellectual property rights and similar rights as described in the SEC Reports as necessary or required for use in connection with its business and which the failure to so have could have a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”). None of, and the Company has not received a notice (written or otherwise) that any of, the Intellectual Property Rights has expired, terminated or been abandoned, or is expected to expire or terminate or be abandoned.

To the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company has taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of its intellectual property, except where failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All Intellectual Property Rights of the Company are set forth in the SEC Reports.

(u)          Reserved.

(v)         USA Patriot Act.

(iii) If such Purchaser(s) desire(s) to purchase the securities offered to investors in such Subsequent Financing, such Purchaser(s) must provide written notice to the Company within (3) Trading Days of receipt of the Subsequent Financing Notice that such Purchaser(s) intend(s) to purchase such securities in the Subsequent Financing, and representing and warranting that such Purchaser(s) has or have such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.

(iv) The Company must provide the Purchasers with another Subsequent Financing Notice, and the Purchasers will again have the right to purchase such securities as described in this Section 4(bb), if the Subsequent Financing subject to any Subsequent Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty (30) Trading Days after the date of the prior Subsequent Financing Notice provided by the Company.

(v) The Company and the Purchasers agree that if any Purchaser(s) elect(s) to purchase such securities in the Subsequent Financing, the transaction documents related to the Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision whereby such Purchaser(s) shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any of the Company’s securities purchased hereunder or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, this Agreement, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser(s), unless such terms apply to all investors in the Subsequent Financing.

(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(bb) and unless otherwise agreed to by such Purchaser(s), the Company shall either confirm in writing to such Purchaser(s) that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the securities in the Subsequent Financing, in either case in such a manner such that such Purchaser(s) will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the twentieth (20th) Trading Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such twentieth (20th) Trading Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Purchaser(s), such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Purchaser(s) shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(vii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4(bb) shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance. An “Exempt Issuance” means the issuance of (A) shares of Common Stock or options to employees, officers, directors, advisors or independent contractors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted for such purpose, (B) shares of Common Stock, warrants or options to consultants, advisors or independent contractors of the Company for compensatory purposes, (C) securities upon the conversion or exercise of any securities issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents and/or other Company securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date hereof, provided that such securities have not been amended since the date hereof to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise price, exchange price or conversion price of such securities, (D) securities issuable pursuant to any contractual anti-dilution obligations of the Company in effect as of the date hereof, provided that such obligations have not been materially amended since the date of hereof, (E) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or any other strategic transactions approved by the Company’s board of directors, provided that any such issuance shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities, and (F) securities issuable pursuant to a registered public offering by the Company.

(cc)         Most Favored Nation Status. So long as the Purchasers hold Preferred Shares with an aggregate Stated Value equal to or exceeding $125,000 and this Agreement remains in full force and effect, if the Company effects a Subsequent Financing, if a Purchaser reasonably believes that the terms and conditions appurtenant to such issuance or sale are more favorable to such investors than were granted to the Purchasers pursuant to the Transaction Documents, such Purchaser may elect, in its sole discretion, in lieu of cash consideration (or whatever form of consideration is payable in such Subsequent Financing) to tender all or some of the Preferred Shares then held by such Purchaser to the Company for the purchase of any securities issued in such Subsequent Financing on a $1.00 for $1.00 basis based on the then outstanding Stated Value of such Preferred Shares, along with any accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing thereon, and the effective price at which such securities were sold in such Subsequent Financing so as to give such Purchaser the benefit of such more favorable terms and provisions, upon notice to the Company by such Purchaser within five (5) Trading Days after the Company’s disclosure of such issuance or sale, which effective price shall not be less than the Floor Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designations); provided, however, that this right shall not apply with respect to an Exempt Issuance.

(dd)        Unless Stockholder Approval has been obtained and deemed effective, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall make any issuance whatsoever of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents which would cause any adjustment to the Conversion Price of the Preferred Shares, or any adjustment to the Exercise Price of the Warrants, to the extent that the holders of Preferred Shares or Warrants, as applicable, would not be permitted, pursuant to Section 6 of the Certificate of Designations and Section 2 of the Warrant, to convert or exercise their respective outstanding Preferred Shares and exercise their respective Warrants in full, ignoring for such purposes the other conversion or exercise limitations therein. Any Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.

(a)          Register. The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each holder of Securities), a register for the Preferred Shares and the Warrants in which the Company shall record the name and address of the Person in whose name the Preferred Shares and Warrants have been issued (including the name and address of each transferee), the number of the Preferred Shares and Warrants held by such Person and the number of Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and exercise of the Warrants, as applicable. The Company shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Purchaser or its legal representatives.

(b)          Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to VStock Transfer, LLC (together with any subsequent transfer agent, the “Transfer Agent”) in the form previously provided to the Company (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) to issue certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), as applicable, registered in the name of each Purchaser or its respective nominee(s), for the Securities in such amounts as specified from time to time by such Purchaser to the Company upon delivery of the Preferred Shares and Warrants, conversion of the Preferred Shares, exercise of the Warrant Shares or issuance pursuant to the Certificate of Designations and Warrants (as the case may be). The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5(b) will be given by the Company to the Transfer Agent with respect to the Securities, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company. If a Purchaser effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities, the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct the Transfer Agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Purchaser to effect such sale, transfer or assignment. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Purchasers. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5(b) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5(b), that the Purchasers shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal opinion referred to in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to the Transfer Agent to the extent required or requested by the Transfer Agent. Any fees (with respect to the Transfer Agent, counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinion shall be borne by the Company.

(c)          Legends. Certificates and any other instruments evidencing the Preferred Shares and the Conversion Shares shall not bear any restrictive or other legend, except as may be specified in the Certificate if Designations. Certificates and any other instruments evidencing the Warrant Shares shall bear the restrictive legend provided for such shares in the Warrant.

(a)          Conditions of Purchasers’ Obligations with respect to each Closing. With respect to each Closing, the obligations of the Purchasers to purchase and pay for the Preferred Shares and Warrants in any Tranche, as provided herein, shall be subject to (i) the continuing accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company as of the date hereof and as of each Closing Date; (ii) the accuracy of the statements of officers of the Company made pursuant to the provisions hereof; (iii) the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder; and (iv) the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6(c).

(b)          Conditions of Purchasers’ Obligations with respect to each Additional Closing. In addition to the conditions set forth in Section 6(a), with respect to each Additional Closing, the Purchasers shall not be obligated to purchase Preferred Shares and Warrants in any Tranche in the event that (x) the Company’s consolidated cash balance exceeds $3,000,000 or (y) for each Trading Day in a period of fifteen (15) consecutive Trading Days prior to the applicable Closing Date in question, the daily trading volume for the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market does not exceed $125,000 per Trading Day.

(c)          Regulatory Matters.

(i)          Reserved.

(ii)         Principal Market Clearance. On the Closing Date, (A) the Company has submitted an additional listing application to the Principal Market with respect to the Underlying Securities and such securities shall have been approved for listing on the Principal Market, subject only to official notice of issuance, and (B) the issuance of such securities shall not be in violation of the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, including, but not limited to, Nasdaq Stock Market Rules 5365(a), (b) and (c).

(iii)        No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company nor any of its officers, directors, employees or affiliates shall have made or shall be making any offer or sale of any securities which are required to be “integrated” pursuant to the Securities Act (or the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder) with the offer and sale of the Securities.

(iv)        Certificate of Designations. The Company shall have filed the Certificate of Designations with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on or prior to the First Closing Date, which shall be in full force and effect as of the First Closing.

In the event that the First Closing shall not have occurred with respect to a Purchaser within three (3) business days after the First Closing Date contemplated in Section 1(b) hereof, then either the Company or such Purchaser, by written notice, shall have the right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement with respect to itself at any time on or after the close of business on such date without liability of any party to any other party; provided, however, (i) the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7 shall not be available to any party if the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to have been consummated by such date is the result of such party’s breach of this Agreement and (ii) the abandonment of the sale and purchase of the Securities shall be applicable only to such Purchaser providing such written notice. Nothing contained in this Section 7 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

(a)          Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

(b)          Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other party hereto. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

(c)          Headings; Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.

(d)          Severability; Maximum Payment Amount. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties hereto as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties hereto or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties hereto. The parties hereto will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and without implication that the following is required or applicable), it is the intention of the parties hereto that in no event shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by the Purchasers, under the Transaction Documents (including without limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as “interest” under applicable law) exceed amounts permitted under any applicable law. Accordingly, if any obligation to pay, payment made to a Purchaser, or collection by any Purchaser pursuant to the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determined to be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of such Purchaser, the Company and its Subsidiaries and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law. Such adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing or refunding, at the option of such Purchaser, the amount of interest or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful amounts required to be paid or actually paid to such Purchaser under the Transaction Documents. For greater certainty, to the extent that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by a Purchaser under any of the Transaction Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term to otherwise be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.

(e)          Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Purchasers, the Company, their respective affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf solely with respect to the matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of such parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreement that a Purchaser has entered into with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Purchaser in the Company or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any rights of or benefits to a Purchaser or any other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and such Purchaser and all such agreements shall continue in full force and effect. Except as specifically set forth herein or the other Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any Purchaser makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For clarification purposes, the recitals are part of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents or all holders of Preferred Shares (as the case may be). The Company has not, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with any Purchaser relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no Purchaser has made a commitment or promise and has any other obligation to provide any financing to the Company, any Subsidiary or otherwise. As a material inducement for the Purchasers to enter into this Agreement, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by any Purchaser, any of the Purchasers’ respective advisors or representatives shall affect a Purchaser’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and (ii) unless a provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is expressly preceded by the phrase “except as disclosed in the SEC Reports,” nothing contained in any of the SEC Reports shall affect a Purchaser’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(f)          Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile or email (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one (1) business day after deposit with an overnight courier service with next day delivery specified, in each case, properly addressed to the party to receive the same. The addresses and facsimile numbers for such communications shall be:

or to such other address, facsimile number and/or email address and/or to the attention of such other Person as the recipient party has specified by written notice given to each other party five (5) days prior to the effectiveness of such change. Written confirmation of receipt (A) given by the recipient of such notice, consent, waiver or other communication, (B) mechanically or electronically generated by the sender’s facsimile machine or computer containing the time, date, recipient facsimile number or email address and an image of the first page of such transmission or (C) provided by an overnight courier service shall be rebuttable evidence of personal service, receipt by facsimile or email or receipt from an overnight courier service in accordance with clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, respectively.

(g)          Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, including, as contemplated below, any assignee of any of the Securities. The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares, including, without limitation, by way of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Certificate of Designations). A Purchaser may assign some or all of such Purchaser’s rights hereunder in connection with any transfer of any of its Securities without the consent of the Company, provided that such assignee agrees in writing to be bound with respect to the transferred Securities, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be a “Purchaser” hereunder with respect to such assigned rights.

(h)          No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

(i)          Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants of the Company and each of the Purchasers included herein shall survive the Closing. Each Purchaser shall be responsible only for such Purchaser’s own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

(j)          Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k)          Indemnification.

(i)          In consideration of each of the Purchaser’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser (each, an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (x) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary in any of the Transaction Documents, (y) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary contained in any of the Transaction Documents or (z) any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary) or which otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (C) any disclosure properly made by a Purchaser pursuant to Section 4(l), or (D) the status of such Purchaser either as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement (including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise in any action or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable relief); provided, however, that the indemnity contained in clause (z) above shall not apply to any Indemnified Liabilities which directly and primarily result from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnitee. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

(ii)         Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee under this Section 8(k) of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Section 8(k), deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Company if: (x) the Company has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (y) the Company shall have failed after a reasonable period of time to assume the defense of such Indemnified Liability and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee in any such Indemnified Liability; or (z) the named parties to any such Indemnified Liability (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnitee and the Company, and such Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel, in its reasonable opinion, that a material conflict of interest on any material issue is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnitee and the Company (in which case, if such Indemnitee notifies the Company in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Company, then the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Company); provided further, that in the case of clauses (x), (y) and (z) above the Company shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate legal counsel for such Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Indemnified Liability by the Company and shall furnish to the Company all information reasonably available to the Indemnitee which relates to such action or Indemnified Liability. The Company shall keep the Indemnitee reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the Company shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such Indemnified Liability or litigation, and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnitee. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the Company shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section 8(k), except to the extent that the Company is materially and adversely prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

(iii)        The indemnification required by this Section 8(k) shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Liabilities are incurred.

(iv)        The indemnity agreement contained herein shall be in addition to (A) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnitee against the Company or others, and (B) any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to the law.

(l)            Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each and every reference to share prices, shares of Common Stock and any other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock shall be automatically adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after the date of this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed that for all purposes of this Agreement, and without implication that the contrary would otherwise be true, neither transactions nor purchases nor sales shall include the location and/or reservation of borrowable shares of Common Stock.

(m)          Remedies. Each Purchaser, and in the event of assignment by such Purchaser of its rights and obligations hereunder, each assignee of Securities, shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it or any Subsidiary fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its or such Subsidiary’s (as the case may be) obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to a Purchaser. The Company therefore agrees that each Purchaser shall be entitled to seek specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

(n)          Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever a Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

(o)          Payment Set Aside; Currency. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to a Purchaser hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or a Purchaser enforces or exercises such Purchaser’s rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are in United States Dollars (“U.S. Dollars”), and all amounts owing under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents shall be paid in U.S. Dollars. All amounts denominated in other currencies (if any) shall be converted into the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation. “Exchange Rate” means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into U.S. Dollars pursuant to this Agreement, the U.S. Dollar exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation.
