The shares of Common Stock to be purchased hereunder are referred to herein as the "Purchase Shares."

NOW THEREFORE , the Company and the Buyer hereby agree as follows:

1.   PURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK.

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)   Commencement of Purchases of Common Stock . 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 Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) per Base Purchase Notice (the “Base Purchase Amount”) at the Purchase Price on the Purchase Date. The Company may deliver multiple Base Purchase Notices to the Buyer so long as at least four (4) Business Days have passed since the most recent Base Purchase was completed. Notwithstanding the forgoing, any time on or after the Commencement Date, the Company shall also have the right but not the obligation by its delivery to the Buyer of Block Purchase Notices from time to time to direct the Buyer to buy Purchase Shares (each such purchase a “Block Purchase”) in any amount up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per Block Purchase Notice at the Block Purchase Price (as defined below) on the Purchase Date as provided herein. For a Block Purchase Notice to be valid the following conditions must be met: (1) the Block Purchase Amount shall not exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) per Block Purchase Notice, (2) the Company must deliver the Purchase Shares before 11:00 a.m. eastern time on the Purchase Date and (3) the Sale Price of the Common Stock must not be below $0.75 (subject to equitable adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other similar transaction) during the Purchase Date, the date of the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice. The Block Purchase Amount may be increased to up to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) per Block Purchase Notice if the Sale Price of the Common Stock is not below $1.20 (subject to equitable adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other similar transaction) during the Purchase Date, the date of the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice. The Block Purchase Amount may be increased to up to Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) per Block Purchase Notice if the Sale Price of the Common Stock is not below $2.40 (subject to equitable adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other similar transaction) during the Purchase Date, the date of the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice. The Block Purchase Amount may be increased to up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per Block Purchase Notice if the Sale Price of the Common Stock is not below $5.00 (subject to equitable adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other similar transaction) during the Purchase Date, the date of the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice. As used herein, the term “Block Purchase Price” shall mean the lesser of (i) the lowest Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Purchase Date or (ii) the lowest Purchase Price during the previous seven (7) Business Days prior to the date that the valid Block Purchase Notice was received by the Buyer. However, if at any time during the Purchase Date, the date of the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice or during the Business Day prior to the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice, the Sale Price of the Common Stock is below the applicable Block Purchase threshold price, such Block Purchase shall be void and the Buyer’s obligations to buy Purchase Shares in respect of that Block Purchase Notice shall be terminated. Thereafter, the Company shall again have the right to submit a Block Purchase Notice as set forth herein by delivery of a new Block Purchase Notice only if the Sale Price of the Common Stock is above the applicable Block Purchase threshold price during the date of the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice. The Company may deliver multiple Block Purchase Notices to the Buyer so long as at least two (2) Business Days have passed since the most recent Block 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 Company and the Buyer shall not 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 $0.45, which shall be appropriately 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.

The Company shall not be required to register any additional Purchase Shares beyond the 3,000,000 unless the Company elects to sell more than 3,000,000 Purchase Shares hereunder.

(b)   Blue Sky . The Company shall take such action, if any, as is reasonably necessary in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify (i) the initial sale of the Commitment Shares and any Purchase Shares to the Buyer under this Agreement and (ii) any subsequent resale of the Commitment Shares and any Purchase Shares by the Buyer, in each case, under applicable securities or "Blue Sky" laws of the states of the United States in such states as is reasonably requested by the Buyer from time to time, and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Buyer.

(c)   Listing . The Company shall promptly secure the listing of all of the Purchase Shares and Commitment Shares upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all such securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Transaction Documents. The Company shall maintain the Common Stock's authorization for quotation on the Principal Market. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action that would be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on the Principal Market. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section.

(d)   Limitation on Short Sales and Hedging Transactions . The Buyer agrees that beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the date of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 11(k), the Buyer and its agents, representatives and affiliates shall not in any manner whatsoever enter into or effect, directly or indirectly, any (i) "short sale" (as such term is defined in Section 242.200 of Regulation SHO of the 1934 Act) of the Common Stock or (ii) hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to the Common Stock.

(e)   Issuance of Commitment Shares; Limitation on Sales of Commitment Shares . Immediately upon the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall issue to the Buyer as consideration for the Buyer entering into this Agreement 400,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Commitment Shares"). The   Commitment Shares shall be issued in certificated form and (subject to Section 5 hereof) shall bear the following restrictive legend:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO: (1) RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (2) AN OPINION OF HOLDER’S COUNSEL, IN A CUSTOMARY FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

The Buyer agrees that the Buyer shall not pledge, transfer or sell the Commitment Shares until the earlier of 600 Business Days (30 Monthly Periods) from the date hereof or the date on which this Agreement has been terminated, provided, however, that such restrictions shall not apply: (i) in connection with any transfers to or among affiliates (as defined in the 1934 Act), (ii) in the event that the Commencement does not occur on or before March 31, 2009, due to the failure of the Company to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7, or (iii) if an Event of Default has occurred, or any event which, after notice and/or lapse of time, would become an Event of Default, including any failure by the Company to timely issue Purchase Shares under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Buyer may transfer Commitment Shares to a third party in order to settle a sale made by the Buyer where the Buyer reasonably expects the Company to deliver Purchase Shares to the Buyer under this Agreement so long as the Buyer maintains ownership of the same overall number of shares of Common Stock by "replacing" the Commitment Shares so transferred with Purchase Shares when the Purchase Shares are actually issued by the Company to the Buyer.

(f)   Due Diligence . The Buyer shall have the right, from time to time as the Buyer may reasonably deem appropriate, to perform reasonable due diligence on the Company during normal business hours. T
