(cc)   None of the Company, any of its affiliates, or any Person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require registration of any of the Securities under the Securities Act or cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including without limitation, under the rules and regulations of the OTC Bulletin Board.

(dd)   The Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s charter documents or the laws of its state of incorporation that is applicable to any of the Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and the Company fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Securities and the Purchasers’ ownership of the Securities.

(ee)   The Company has described in, or filed as an exhibit to, the SEC Documents filed prior to the date of this Agreement all of the following types of documents, agreements, plans or arrangements that are required by federal securities laws to be described in, or filed as an exhibit to, the SEC Documents:  employment agreements, consulting agreements, deferred compensation, pension or retirement agreements or arrangements (including all “employee pension benefit plans” as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA, bonus, incentive or profit-sharing plans or arrangements, or labor or collective bargaining agreements in effect by the Company) (the “ ERISA Documents ”).  Except for any compliance failures that, individually or in the aggregate, are not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, (a) the Company is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations relating to labor, employment, fair employment practices, terms and conditions of employment, and wages and hours, and with the terms of the ERISA Documents; and (b) each such ERISA Document is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable requirements of ERISA.  To the Company’s knowledge, none of the Company’s employees are obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that would interfere with the use of his or her employment obligations to the Company or that would conflict with the Company’s business as now conducted or proposed to be conducted, except for such contracts and other agreements, judgments, decrees and orders that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(ff)   Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, no transaction has occurred: (A) between or among the Company and any of its officers or directors, stockholders or any affiliate of any such officer or director or stockholder; and (B) to the Company’s knowledge, between or among any stockholders of the Company.

3.   Certain Covenants of the Company .  The Company covenants and agrees with each Purchaser as follows:

(a)   Use of Proceeds .  The proceeds of the issuance of the Securities as described in this Agreement shall be used to fund the ordinary course working capital needs of the Company.  None of the proceeds of the Loans will be used to reduce or retire any existing debt of the Company (other than for trade payables), except to the extent any such notes or debt are being cancelled as consideration for purchase of Securities by a Purchaser hereunder and as specifically set forth on Schedule I hereto.

(b)   No Integrated Offering .  None of the Company or any of its affiliates will sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any “security” (as defined in the Securities Act) that could be integrated with the sale of the Securities in a manner which would require the registration under the Securities Act of the Securities.

(c)   Investment Company Act Status .  The Company will not become, at any time prior to the expiration of three years after the Closing Date, an open-end investment company, unit investment trust, closed-end investment company or face-amount certificate company that is or is required to be registered under the Investment Company Act.

(d)   Voting Rights .  The Company shall file the Series D Certificate of Designations with the Delaware Secretary of State no later than July 31, 2009. The Company shall file an amendment to the Series C Certificate of Designations changing the conversion rate set forth in Section (c) from $.015 to $.004 no later than July 31, 2009.  The Company shall file the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company referenced in Section 2(c) hereof no later than July 31, 2009.  Until such time that the Loans have been paid in full, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the holders of at least 60% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and notwithstanding the absence of any issuances of Series D Preferred Stock to the Purchasers, amend the Series D Certificate of Designations as initially filed by the Company, nor engage in any action that would, pursuant to the terms of the Series D Certificate of Designations, require the affirmative vote of a majority or more of the then outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock.  For so long as the Notes to Peninsula are outstanding, or Peninsula is still the holder of at least fifty percent (50%) of any shares of Series D Preferred Stock originally issued to Peninsula, Peninsula shall have the right to elect one (1) director to the Company’s Board of Directors.  The individual elected to such seat shall not be removed absent gross misconduct.  In the case of any vacancy in the office of a director elected by Peninsula to the Board of Directors, Peninsula may elect a successor to hold office for the unexpired term of the director whose place shall be vacant.  Additionally, for so long as the Notes to Peninsula are outstanding, or Peninsula is still the holder of at least fifty percent (50%) of any shares of Series D Preferred Stock originally issued to Peninsula, the Company shall establish an Operations Committee of the Board of Directors, and Peninsula shall have the right to elect its one (1) director to such Operations Committee.    The individual elected to such seat shall not be removed absent gross misconduct.  In the case of any vacancy in the office of a director elected by Peninsula to the Operations Committee, Peninsula may elect a successor to hold office for the unexpired term of the director whose place shall be vacant.

(e)   Further Action .  The Company will use its best efforts to do and perform all things required to be done and performed by it under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and to satisfy all conditions precedent on its part to the obligations of the Purchasers to purchase and accept delivery of the Securities.

(f)   Investor Rights Agreement .  The Purchasers shall be entitled, with respect to any shares of the Company’s capital stock issued upon  conversion of the Notes to all of the registration and other rights set forth in the Company’s Investor Rights Agreement dated as of June 4, 2008, as amended September 15, 2008 and December 17, 2008 (the “ Rights Agreement ”), to the same extent and on the same terms and conditions as possessed by the investors thereunder and as if such were included in the definition of “Registrable Securities” in the Rights Agreement.  Peninsula shall also be entitled to all of the rights of a “Major Holder” under the Rights Agreement as if its Note had been converted into equity in the Company (and notwithstanding the absence of such conversion). No later than July 31, 2009, the Company shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assure that the granting of such rights to the Purchasers does not violate the provisions of the Rights Agreement or any of the Company’s charter documents or rights of prior grantees of registration rights.

(g)   Further Indebtedness .  The Company hereby covenants and agrees that so long as any principal amount and accrued interest remains outstanding under the Notes issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, that it shall not, without the written consent of Purchasers holding Notes representing at least 60% of the principal amount of all Notes then outstanding, incur, guaranty, assume or otherwise become obligated to pay indebtedness, other than amounts under equipment leases existing as of the Initial Closing Date, accounts payable and other obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business, other than pursuant to this Agreement.

4.   Conditions of the Purchasers’ Obligations .  The obligation of each Purchaser to purchase and pay for the Securities at each Closing Date is subject to the following conditions unless waived by the Purchaser:

(a)   The representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct on and as of the Closing Date.

5.   Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers .

(a)   Each Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that the Securities to be acquired by it hereunder (including the Conversion Shares that it may acquire upon conversion thereof) are being acquired for its own account for investment and with no present intention of distributing or reselling such Securities (including the Conversion Shares that it may acquire upon conversion thereof) or any part thereof or interest therein in any transaction which would be in violation of the securities laws of the United States of America or any State.  Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall prejudice or otherwise limit a Purchaser’s right to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Conversion Shares under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and in compliance with applicable state securities laws or under an exemption from such registration.

(b)   Each Purchaser understands that the Securities and Conversion Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred except (a) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act (and, if requested by the Company, based upon an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company) or pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and (b) in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the states of the United States and other jurisdictions.

(c)   Each Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as appropriate, of the following legend on the Securities (including the Conversion Shares that it may acquire upon conversion thereof):

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "1933 ACT"), OR UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, BUT HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED BY THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF FOR PURPOSES OF INVESTMENT AND IN RELIANCE ON STATUTORY EXEMPTIONS UNDER THE 1933 ACT, AND UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED EXCEPT IN A TRANSACTION WHICH IS EXEMPT UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THE 1933 ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT.

(d)   The legend set forth above may be removed if and when the Securities or Conversion Shares are disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or, in the opinion of counsel to the Company experienced in the area of United States Federal securities laws, such legends are no longer required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act.  The Company agrees that it will provide each Purchaser, upon request, with a substitute certificate, not bearing such legend at such time as such legend is no longer applicable.

(e)   Each Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.  None of the Purchasers learned of the opportunity to acquire Securities or any other security issuable by the Company through any form of general advertising or public solicitation.

(f)   Each Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that it has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Securities, having been represented by counsel, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment and is able to bear the economic risk of such investment and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

(g)   Each Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that the purchase of the Securities to be purchased by it has been duly and properly authorized and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it or on its behalf and constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity.

(h)   Each Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that neither it nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, partners, members, or controlling persons has taken, or will take, directly or indirectly, any actions designed, or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, the destabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock.

(i)   Each Purchaser acknowledges it or its representatives have reviewed the SEC Documents and further acknowledges that it or its representatives have been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and the merits and risks of investing in the Securities; and (ii) access to information about the Company and the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment in the Securities.

(j)   Each Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that it has based its investment decision solely upon the information contained in the SEC Documents and such other information as may have been provided to it or its representatives by the Company in response to its inquiries, and has not based its investment decision on any research or other report regarding the Company prepared by any third party (“ Third Party Reports ”).  Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) the Company does not endorse any Third Party Reports and (ii) its actual results may differ materially from those projected in any Third Party Report.

(k)   Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) any forward-looking information included in the SEC Documents is subject to risks and uncertainties, including those risks and uncertainties set forth in the SEC Documents; and (ii) the Company’s actual results may differ materially from those projected by the Company or its management in such forward-looking information.

(l)   Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) the Securities are offered and sold without registration under the Securities Act in a private placement that is exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and (ii) the availability of such exemption depends in part on, and that the Company and its counsel will rely upon, the accuracy and truthfulness of the foregoing representations and Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.  Each Purchaser also understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act will be available and that, even if available, such exemption may not allow Purchaser to transfer all or any portion of the Securities or Conversion Shares under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times Purchaser might propose.

(m)   None of the Purchasers is a broker or dealer registered pursuant to Section 15 of the Exchange Act (a “ registered broker-dealer ”) or is affiliated with a registered broker-dealer.

6.   Covenants of Purchasers . 

(a)   No Short Sale .  Purchasers, on behalf of themselves and their affiliates and the permitted assignee of any Conversion Shares, hereby covenant and agree not to, directly or indirectly, offer to “short sell”, contract to “short sell” or otherwise “short sell” any securities of the Company prior to the Closing Date.

(b)   Agreement to Convert or Subordinate Notes .  All Notes may be converted or subordinated at any time upon approval of the same by holders of at least 60% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.  In the event of such conversion of the Notes pursuant to this Section 6(b), the Notes shall immediately accrue the full amount of interest that would otherwise be payable as of the Maturity Date (as defined in such Notes), as if such Notes were outstanding on such date, notwithstanding the fact such Notes would have been converted prior to that date.

7.   [Intentionally Left Blank]

8.   Indemnification .  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Purchasers, any affiliates of the Purchasers, and each Person, if any, who controls, is controlled by or under common control with any Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act (each, an “ Indemnified Party ”), against any losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, “ Losses ”), joint or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as such Losses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based in whole or in part on any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement or any failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred as such expenses are incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such Loss; provided , however , that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon the inaccuracy of any representations made by such Indemnified Party herein.

9.   Termination .

(a)   This Agreement may be terminated by Peninsula or the Trident Lenders by notice to the Company given in the event that (i) the Company shall have failed, refused or been unable to satisfy all material conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder on or prior to the Closing Date or (ii) if after the date of this Agreement but prior to the Closing Date, trading in securities of the Company on the OTC Bulletin Board shall have been suspended and the Company ceases to be publicly traded.

(b)   This Agreement may be terminated by mutual written consent of the Company and the Purchasers.

10.   Notices .  All communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be hand delivered, mailed by first-class mail, couriered by next-day air courier or by facsimile and confirmed in writing (i) if to the Company, at the addresses set forth below, or (ii) if to a Purchaser, to the address set forth for such party on the signature pages hereto.
