subsisting and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its

incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on

its

-4-

<PAGE>

business as now conducted and to own its properties. The Company and each

Subsidiary is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in

good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its

ownership or leasing of property makes such qualification or licensing necessary

unless the failure to so qualify could not be reasonably likely to have a

Material Adverse Effect. The Company has no Subsidiaries other than those listed

in EXHIBIT 21 to the 2004 10-K and has no investment in any other Person except

such investments as would be classified as current assets on a balance sheet of

the Company, prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting

Principles.

3.2 AUTHORIZATION. The Company has full corporate power and

authority and has taken all requisite action on the part of the Company, its

officers, directors and stockholders necessary for (i) the authorization,

execution and delivery of the Amendment Transaction Documents, (ii)

authorization of the performance of all obligations of the Company under the

Amendment Transaction Documents, and (iii) the authorization, issuance (or

reservation for issuance) and delivery of the Securities, other than approval by

the stockholders of the Company of issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess

of the number permitted by Rule 4350(i) of Nasdaq to the extent such rule

requires such approval. Each of the Amendment Transaction Documents, when

executed and delivered by the Company, will constitute the legal, valid and

binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance

with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium

and similar laws of general applicability, relating to or affecting creditors'

rights generally.

3.3 CAPITALIZATION. All of the issued and outstanding shares of the

Company's capital stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are

fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights. Except as set forth in

Section 6.3 of the Purchase Agreement and the Other Purchase Agreements, no

Person is entitled to preemptive or similar statutory or contractual rights with

respect to any securities of the Company.

3.4 VALID ISSUANCE, ENFORCEABLE OBLIGATION. The aggregate number of

shares of Common Stock authorized is 175,000,000, issued is 34,647,101,

limitation, for issuance in connection with the Note, the Other Note, the

Warrant, the Redemption Warrant, the common stock purchase warrant issued

pursuant to the Other Purchase Agreement and the common stock purchase warrant

issuable pursuant to the Other Note) is 14,926,581. The Company does not have

any obligation to issue shares of Common Stock for which it has not reserved the

number of shares of Common Stock it may be obligated to issue. The Amended Note

and the Amended Warrant are duly authorized by all necessary actions, corporate

or otherwise, on the part of the Company; the Underlying Shares and the Warrant

Shares have been duly authorized and the Underlying Shares, when

-5-

<PAGE>

issued in accordance with the Purchase Agreement and the terms of the Amended

Note, and the Warrant Shares, when issued in accordance with the Purchase

Agreement and the terms of the Amended Warrant, in each such case will be

validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and free and clear of all

Encumbrances and restrictions, except for restrictions on transfer imposed by

applicable securities laws; and the Amended Note, the Amended Warrant, and, when

issued in accordance with the terms of the Amended Note, the Redemption Warrant,

in each such case will be free and clear of all Encumbrances and restrictions,

except for restrictions on transfer imposed by applicable securities laws and

the requirements for transfer set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the other

Transaction Documents and the Amendment Transaction Documents.

3.5 CONSENTS. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company

of the Amendment Transaction Documents and the offer, issuance and sale of the

Securities require no consent of, action by or in respect of, or filing with,

any Person, governmental body, agency, or official other than (1) filings that

have been or will be made pursuant to applicable state securities laws and, in

accordance with the requirements of the Nasdaq, the listing of additional shares

of Common Stock in excess of the number heretofore approved for listing in

connection with the Purchase Agreement and the Other Purchase Agreement and

other than the filing of a Form D by the Company with the SEC, each of which the

Company undertakes to file within the applicable time periods after the Closing,

and (2) registration with the SEC of the resale of shares of Common Stock, if

any, in excess of the number registered on the Company's Registration Statement

on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-120548).

3.6 SEC FILINGS; NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION. The Company has timely

filed all material reports and other documents required to be filed with the SEC

pursuant to the 1934 Act since November 1, 2004. At their respective times of

filing with the SEC, such documents complied in all material respects with the

requirements of the 1934 Act and did not contain any untrue statement of a

material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the

statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were

made, not misleading, in any such case that has not been corrected in a

subsequent filing by the Company with the SEC under the 1934 Act made prior to

the date of this Agreement. Except for information relating to this Agreement

and the Other Agreement and transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the

Company has not provided to any Purchaser (i) any information required to be

<PAGE>

3.8 NO CONFLICT, BREACH, VIOLATION OR DEFAULT. (a) The execution,

delivery and performance of the Amendment Transaction Documents by the Company

and the issuance and sale of the Securities will not conflict with or result in

a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a

default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge,

security interest or encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Security Agreement)

under (i) the Company's Articles of Incorporation (including any articles of

amendment or articles designating series of shares) or the Company's Bylaws,

(ii) any statute, rule, regulation or order of any governmental agency or body

or any court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any

Subsidiary or any of their respective assets or properties, or (iii) any

agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by

which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or to which any of the properties

of the Company or any Subsidiary is subject.

(b) The Company and each Subsidiary (i) is not in violation of any

statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or its

assets, (ii) is not in violation of any judgment, order or decree applicable to

the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective assets, and (iii) is

not in breach or violation of any agreement, note or instrument to which it or

its assets are a party or are bound or subject, except for breaches or

violations which, individually or in aggregate, could not reasonably be likely

to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the best of the Company's knowledge,

neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received notice from any Person of

any claim or investigation that, if adversely determined, would render the

representations or warranties in the preceding sentence untrue or incomplete.

3.9 COMPLIANCE WITH NASDAQ CONTINUED LISTING REQUIREMENTS. The

Company is in compliance with all applicable Nasdaq continued listing

requirements, except where failure to comply would not result in de-listing from

or the imposition of restrictions or limitations by Nasdaq, and is in good

standing on such market. There are no proceedings pending or to the Company's

knowledge threatened against the Company relating to the continued listing of

the Company's Common Stock on Nasdaq and the Company has not received any notice

of, nor to the knowledge of the Company is there any basis for, the suspension

of trading of the Common Stock on, or delisting of the Common Stock from,

Nasdaq.

3.10 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF POTENTIAL DILUTION. The Company understands

that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Amended Note,

the Amended Warrant, the Redemption Warrant, the Other Note and the other

securities issuable pursuant to the Other Purchase Agreement or the

-7-

<PAGE>

Other Note may be substantial and that such issuance may have a dilutive effect

on the Company's equity capitalization.

3.11 BROKERS AND FINDERS. The Purchaser shall have no liability or

responsibility for the payment of any commission or finder's fee to any third

party in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this

Agreement by reason of any agreement of or action taken by the Company.

3.12 NO DIRECTED SELLING EFFORTS OR GENERAL SOLICITATION. Neither

the Company nor any Person acting on its behalf has conducted any general

solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation D) in

connection with the offer or sale of any of the Securities. The Company has not

offered or sold and will not offer or sell any securities similar to the Amended

Note or the Amended Warrant as part of the offering of the Securities to the

Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement, other than

pursuant to the Other Agreement and the Other Purchase Agreement.

3.13 NO INTEGRATED OFFERING. Neither the Company nor any of its

Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or 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 (1) adversely affect reliance

by the Company on Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act and Regulation D for the

exemption from registration under the 1933 Act for the transactions contemplated

hereby or would require registration of the offer and sale of the Securities to

the Purchaser under the 1933 Act; or (2) require the integration of the offering

of the Securities with any other offering of securities for purposes of

determining the need to obtain stockholder approval of the transactions

contemplated hereby under the rules of Nasdaq.

3.14 CONCERNING THE COLLATERAL. Notwithstanding the execution and

delivery of this Agreement and completion of the transactions contemplated

hereby, the Collateral Agent will continue to have a first priority perfected

security interest in the Collateral for the ratable benefit of the holders of

the Amended Note and the Other Amended Note.

3.15 DISCLOSURES. For purposes of this Agreement and the

transactions contemplated hereby, none of the representations or warranties made

by the Company under any of the Amendment Transaction Documents and no written

information furnished by the Company pursuant hereto, or in any other document,

certificate or written statement furnished by the Company to the Purchaser or

any authorized representative of the Purchaser pursuant to the Amendment

Transaction Documents or in connection therewith, contains any untrue statement

of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make

the statements contained herein and therein, in light of the circumstances under

which they were made, not misleading.

-8-

<PAGE>

3.16 ABSENCE OF RIGHTS AGREEMENT. The Company has not adopted a

shareholder rights plan or similar arrangement relating to accumulations of

beneficial ownership of Common Stock or a change of control in the Company.

3.17 CONCERNING THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS. The representations and

warranties made by the Company pursuant to the Transaction Documents were true

and correct when made and were true and correct on the Closing Date as if made

on the Closing Date. The Company is in compliance in all material respects with

its obligations under the Transaction Documents; no Event of Default or event or

circumstance that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both,

would constitute an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and no

Repurchase Event or event or circumstances that, with the giving of notice or

the passage of time, or both, would constitute a Repurchase Event has occurred

and is continuing.

3.18 CONCERNING REGISTRATION. Upon the filing by the Company with

Existing Registration Statement will be available for use by the Purchaser for
