The holder of the Note shall be treated for all purposes as the beneficial holder of such Shares, or, in the case that Company delivers physical certificates as set forth below, the record holder of such Shares, unless the holder provides the Company written instructions to the contrary.  For avoidance of doubt, in the event that Shares cannot be delivered to the Holder via DWAC, (or, if no transfer agent is appointed) the Company shall deliver physical certificates representing the Shares by the Delivery Date to an address designated by the holder.

(c)           The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof later than the Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the affected Subscriber.  In addition to other damages or remedies at law or in equity to which the converting Note holder may be entitled, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Conversion Shares within ten (10) business days after the Delivery Date, such Subscriber will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Notice of Conversion by delivery of a written notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and such Subscriber shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice, except that the liquidated damages described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.

7.2.           Conditions Precedent to the Obligation of the Subscribers to Close and to Purchase the Notes.  The obligation hereunder of the Subscribers to purchase the Notes and Warrants and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver, at or before such Closing, of each of the conditions set forth below.  These conditions are for the Subscribers’ and Agent’s sole benefit and may be waived by the Subscribers and Agent at any time in their sole discretion.

(i)           create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any pledge, hypothecation, assignment, deposit arrangement, lien, charge, claim, security interest, security title, mortgage, security deed or deed of trust, easement or encumbrance, or preference, priority or other security agreement or preferential arrangement of any kind or nature whatsoever (including any lease or title retention agreement, any financing lease having substantially the same economic effect as any of the foregoing, and the filing of, or agreement to give, any financing statement perfecting a security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code or comparable law of any jurisdiction) (each, a “Lien”) upon any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired except for:  (a) Liens imposed by law for taxes that are not yet due or are being contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; (b) carriers’, landlords’ warehousemen’s, mechanics’, material men’s, repairmen’s and other like Liens imposed by law, arising in the ordinary course of business and securing obligations that are not overdue by more than 60 days or that are being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings; (c) pledges and deposits made in the ordinary course of business in compliance with workers’ compensation, unemployment insurance and other social security laws or regulations; (d) deposits to secure the performance of bids, trade contracts, leases, statutory obligations, surety and appeal bonds, performance bonds and other obligations of a like nature, in each case in the ordinary course of business; (e) Liens created with respect to the financing of the purchase of property in the ordinary course of the Company’s business up to the amount of the purchase price of such property; (f) Liens created with respect to the financing or factoring of the Company’s accounts receivable; (g) easements, zoning restrictions, rights-of-way and similar encumbrances on real property imposed by law or arising in the ordinary course of business that do not secure any monetary obligations and do not materially detract from the value of the affected property; and (h) Liens disclosed on Schedule 9(l)(i) hereto (each of (a) through (h), a “Permitted Lien”);

(b)           Entire Agreement; Assignment.  This Agreement and other documents delivered in connection herewith represent the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and may be amended only by a writing executed by all parties hereto.  Neither the Company nor the Subscribers have relied on any representations not contained or referred to in this Agreement and the documents delivered herewith.   No right or obligation of the Company shall be assigned without prior notice to and the written consent of the Subscribers. No right or obligation of any Subscriber shall be assigned without prior notice to and the written consent of the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement and Schedule A hereto, may be amended from time to time by the Company, Subsidiaries and Agent, without consent of the Subscribers, for the sole purpose of accepting additional subscribers and subsequent Closings until the maximum offering amount has been sold.
 
(c)           Counterparts/Execution.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different signatories hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.  This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signature and delivered by facsimile transmission.
 
(d)           Law Governing this Agreement.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be brought only in the federal courts located in the state and county of New York.  The parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens.  The parties executing this Agreement and other agreements referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith on behalf of the Company agree to submit to the in personam jurisdiction of such courts and hereby irrevocably waive trial by jury.  The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs.  In the event that any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law.  Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.  The Notes reflect an investment by the Subscribers and, are deemed an irrevocable instrument for the payment of money only, actionable and enforceable, among other remedies, by Agent or by any owner of a Note independently or together, by Summary Proceeding in Lieu of Complaint pursuant to CPLR rule 3213 or similar proceeding, as well as through conventional proceeding.
 
(e)           Specific Enforcement, Consent to Jurisdiction.  The Company and Subscriber acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity.  Subject to Section 12(d) hereof, the Company hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction in New York of such court, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Nothing in this Section shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
 
 
16

 
(f)           Independent Nature of Subscribers.     The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each Subscriber under the Transaction Documents 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 the Transaction Documents. Nothing herein is deemed to imply or impute upon any subscriber any obligation to invest further or invest any amounts other than the amount subscribed for hereby.  The Company acknowledges that each Subscriber has represented that the decision of each Subscriber to purchase Securities has been made by such Subscriber independently of any other Subscriber and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company which may have been made or given by any other Subscriber or by any agent or employee of any other Subscriber, and no Subscriber or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Subscriber (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions.  The Company acknowledges that nothing contained in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Subscriber pursuant hereto or thereto (including, but not limited to, the (i) inclusion of a Subscriber in a registration statement and (ii) review by, and consent to, any such registration statement by a Subscriber) 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 Transaction Documents.  The Company acknowledges that, in the event that no Agent is acting on its behalf, each Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of the Transaction Documents, 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 it has elected to provide all Subscribers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because Company was required or requested to do so by the Subscribers.  The Company acknowledges that such procedure with respect to the Transaction Documents in no way creates a presumption that the Subscribers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.
 
(g)           [Omitted.]
 
(h)           Consent.   As used in the Agreement, “consent of the Subscribers” or “Consent of the “Majority of Note Holders” or similar language means the consent of holders of greater than 70% of the total Principal Amount of Notes and interest outstanding on the date consent is requested.
 
(i)           Equal Treatment.   No consideration shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered and paid to all the Subscribers and their permitted successors and assigns.
 
(j)           Maximum Payments.   Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law.  In the event that the rate of interest, conversion rate or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to the Subscriber and thus refunded to the Company.
 
(k)           Calendar Days.   All references to “days” in the Transaction Documents shall mean calendar days unless otherwise stated.  The terms “business days” and “trading days” shall mean days that the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading for three or more hours.  Time periods shall be determined as if the relevant action, calculation or time period were occurring in New York City.  Any deadline that falls on a non-business day in any of the Transaction Documents shall be automatically extended to the next business day and interest, if any, shall be calculated and payable through such extended period.

(l)           Captions: Certain Definitions.  The captions of the various sections and paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted only for the purposes of convenience; such captions are not a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed in any manner to modify, explain, enlarge or restrict any of the provisions of this Agreement.  As used in this Agreement the term “person” shall mean and include an individual, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a limited liability company, a trust, an unincorporated organization and a government or any department or agency thereof.
 
(m)           Severability.  In the event that any term or provision of this Agreement shall be finally determined to be superseded, invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable pursuant to applicable law by an authority having jurisdiction and venue, that determination shall not impair or otherwise affect the validity, legality or enforceability: (i) by or before that authority of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement, which shall be enforced as if the unenforceable term or provision were deleted, or (ii) by or before any other authority of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
 
(n)           Successor Laws.  References in the Transaction Documents to laws, rules, regulations and forms shall also include successors to and functionally equivalent replacements of such laws, rules, regulations and forms.
