In consideration
of the mutual covenants set forth herein, and other
good and valuable consideration, the Company and Investor hereby

SECURITIES. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Investor shall purchase, and the Company shall sell
and issue to
the Investor, at the Closing (as defined below), (i) a promissory
note
substantially in the form, and with the terms, attached hereto as
Exhibit A in
the principal amount of $2,152,500 (the "Note"), (ii) 11,587,926
shares of
common stock of the Company (the "Shares"), and (iii) warrants to
purchase
1,852,500 shares of common stock of the Company substantially in

Note and the
Shares, the "Securities"). The purchase price for the Securities
shall be
$1,500,000 in cash and cancellation of the Prior Notes (the
"Purchase Price").
The proceeds from the sale of the Securities are to be used toward
for working
capital and general corporate purposes, including the payment of
accounts
payable, legal and accounting fees, ongoing consulting and
employment expenses
and other purposes. The Company expects to raise additional
capital, on terms
that may be more or less favorable than those offered to Investor,

deliver the
items required by the preceding sentence when and as required
thereby shall
constitute a breach of this Agreement (and the other party shall be
entitled to
demand specific performance in addition to any other remedies
available at law
or in equity).
