THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto
agree as follows:
1.
Subscription . The Buyers hereby purchase the
Securities from the Company and the Company hereby sells and issues
the Securities to the Buyers. USA will deliver to the Buyers
certificates representing an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of USA
Common Stock and all of the Warrants registered in the name of the
respective Buyer as detailed in Schedule A. In full payment for the
Securities, the Buyers will deliver to USA, upon receipt of the
Securities, checks payable to USA or wire transfers of immediately
available funds in the aggregate amount of $6,000,000.
No later
than thirty days following the date hereof, USA shall at its cost
and expense prepare and file and thereafter use its best efforts to
have declared effective within ninety (90) days from the date
hereof, an appropriate Registration Statement with the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC") registering all of the Shares and
Warrant Shares for resale by the holder under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended ("Act"). The registration statement shall be
prepared as a "shelf" registration statement under Rule 415, and
the Company shall use its best efforts to have the registration
statement maintained effective until the earlier of (i) one year
from the date hereof, or (ii) the
date that all of
the Shares and Warrant Shares are resold pursuant to the
registration statement or otherwise.
In the
event that the registration statement to be filed by the Company is
not declared effective by the SEC within ninety (90) days from the
date hereof, then the Company will pay to each Buyer as liquidated
damages for such failure and not as a penalty a cash payment equal
to one percent (1%) of the aggregate subscription price paid by
each such Buyer for each month beyond such ninety (90) day period
that the registration statement is not effective. The foregoing
penalty payments shall be pro-rated for any periods of less than
one month. The payment of such liquidated damages shall not relieve
the Company from its obligations to register the Shares and Warrant
Shares pursuant to this Agreement. The maximum aggregate penalty
payable to any Buyer shall be twelve percent (12%) of the aggregate
subscription price paid by any such Buyer.

Authority . The execution and delivery of this Agreement,
and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have

of Common Stock sufficient to provide for the exercise of the right
of purchase represented by the Warrants. All shares of Common Stock
