and Warrants under the offering will not be integrated with any
other issuance of the Company’s securities (past, current or
future) for purposes of the Securities Act or any applicable rules
of the American Stock Exchange. The Company will not
make any offers or sales of any security (other than the Series F
Preferred Stock and Warrants in the Offering) that would cause the
offering of the Shares and Warrants to be integrated with any other
offering of securities by the Company for purposes of any
registration requirement under the Securities Act.
(r) The
Company is in material compliance with all applicable securities
(or “ Blue Sky ”) laws of the states of the

subscribers in the Offering.
5.1 Subscriber
acknowledges that it is acquiring the Shares and Warrants for its
own account and for the purpose of investment and not with a view
to any distribution or resale thereof within the meaning of the
Securities Act and any applicable state or other securities laws
(“ State Acts ”). Subscriber further
agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose
of any of the Shares, Warrants or Underlying Shares (collectively,
the “ Securities ”) in violation of the
Securities Act or State Acts and acknowledges that, in taking
unregistered securities, it must continue to bear economic risk in
regard to its investment for an indefinite period of time because
of the fact that none of the Securities have been registered under
the Securities Act or State Acts and further realizes that the
Securities cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the
Securities Act and State Acts or an exemption from such
registration is available. Subscriber further recognizes that the
Company is not assuming any obligation to register the Securities.
Subscriber also acknowledges that appropriate legends reflecting
the status of the Securities under the Securities Act and State
Acts may be placed on the face of the certificates for the
Securities at the time of their transfer and delivery to the holder
thereof. This Agreement is made with Subscriber in
reliance upon Subscriber’s above representations.
5.2 The
Securities may not be transferred except in a transaction which is
in compliance with the Securities Act and State Acts. It shall be a
condition to any transfer of the Securities that the Company shall
be furnished with an opinion of counsel, which counsel and opinion
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that
the proposed transfer would be in compliance with the Securities
Act and State Acts. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
furnishing such opinion of counsel shall not be a condition to any
transfer of the Securities to an affiliate of Subscriber, including
for this purpose if Subscriber is an investment company, any fund
or account advised by Subscriber’s investment adviser or any
affiliate thereof.

conditions at which the Company proposes to issue and sell such New
Securities. Subscriber shall have the right, for a
period of five (5) days after receipt of such written notice, to
notify the Company in writing of Subscriber’s intention to so
purchase such offered New Securities and the Company shall then
sell to such Subscriber the amount of such Offered Securities
specified by Subscriber (which amount shall not be greater than

preceding sentence)).

participate as required under subsection (a) above, the Company
shall have one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter to issue and
sell the New Securities not elected nor eligible to be purchased by
Subscriber at the price and upon the terms no more favorable to the
purchasers of such New Securities than specified in the
Company’s notice under subsection (a) above. In
the event the Company has not sold such New Securities within said
one hundred eighty (180) day period, the Company shall not
hereafter issue or sell any New Securities without first offering
such securities in the manner provided above.

Stockholder have been fully exercised, exchanged, or converted)
bears to the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned by
all security holders of the Company (assuming for this purpose that
all Common Stock Equivalents have been fully exercised, exchanged
or converted).
