Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company has the right to sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer has the obligation to purchase from the Company, Purchase Shares as follows:

(a)            Initial Purchases; Commencement of Base and Block Purchases of Common Stock .  Within five Business Days after the execution of this Agreement, the Buyer shall purchase from the Company 100,000 Purchase Shares and upon receipt of such Purchase Shares pay to the Company as the purchase price therefor, via wire transfer, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) (such purchase an "Initial Purchase" and such Purchase Shares are referred to herein as "Initial Purchase Shares").  Upon issuance and payment therefor as provided herein, such 100,000 Initial Purchase Shares shall be, validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.

In addition, within One Hundred and Twenty (120) Business Days after the execution of this Agreement, the Buyer shall purchase from the Company 50,000 additional Purchase Shares and upon receipt of such Purchase Shares pay to the Company as the purchase price therefore, via wire transfer, Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) (such purchase an "Initial Purchase" and such Purchase Shares are referred to herein as "Initial Purchase Shares").  Upon issuance and payment therefore as provided herein, such 50,000 Initial Purchase Shares shall be, validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.  

Further still, on the Filing Date (as defined in Section 4(a) hereof), the Buyer shall purchase from the Company 50,000 additional Purchase Shares and upon receipt of such Purchase Shares pay to the Company as the purchase price therefor, via wire transfer, Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) (such purchase an "Initial Purchase" and such Purchase Shares are referred to herein as "Initial Purchase Shares").  Upon issuance and payment therefore as provided herein, such 50,000 Initial Purchase Shares shall be, validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.  

The three Initial Purchases hereunder shall be One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) in aggregate and the Buyer shall receive 200,000 shares in the aggregate relating to the three Initial Purchases. The   Initial Purchase Shares shall be issued in certificated form and (subject to Section 5 hereof) shall bear only the restrictive legend set forth in Section 4(e) hereof. Thereafter, the purchase and sale of Purchase Shares hereunder shall occur from time to time upon written notices by the Company to the Buyer on the terms and conditions as set forth herein following the satisfaction of the conditions (the "Commencement") as set forth in Sections 6 and 7 below  (the date of satisfaction of such conditions, the "Commencement Date").

(b)            The Company's Right to Require Purchases .  Any time on or after the Commencement Date, the Company shall have the right but not the obligation to direct the Buyer by its delivery to the Buyer of Base Purchase Notices from time to time to buy Purchase Shares (each such purchase a "Base Purchase") in any amount up to One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) per Base Purchase Notice (the "Base Purchase Amount") at the Purchase Price on the Purchase Date. The Company may request and the Buyer, in its sole

discretion, may elect to allow the Company to increase a Base Purchase beyond One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) for any one or more Purchases.

The Company may deliver multiple Base Purchase Notices to the Buyer so long as at least twenty (20) Business Days have passed since the most recent Base Purchase was completed.  

(c)            Payment for Purchase Shares .  The Buyer shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the Purchase Amount with respect to such Purchase Shares as full payment for such Purchase Shares via wire transfer of immediately available funds on the same Business Day that the Buyer receives such Purchase Shares if they are received by the Buyer before 11:00 a.m. eastern time or if received by the Buyer after 11:00 a.m. eastern time, the next Business Day.  The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any purchase.  If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up or down to the nearest whole share.

All payments made under this Agreement shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America or wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Company may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.  Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Agreement is due on any day that is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day.

(d)            Purchase Price Floor .  The Buyer shall not be obligated to effect any sales under this Agreement on any Purchase Date where the Purchase Price for any purchases of Purchase Shares would be less than the Floor Price.   "Floor Price" means $0.25, which shall NOT be adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other similar transaction.

(e)            Records of Purchases .  The Buyer and the Company shall each maintain records showing the remaining Available Amount at any give time and the dates and Purchase Amounts for each purchase or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer and the Company.
