The Purchaser understands that the sale of the Shares and the Warrant hereunder and the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act that depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser's representations and warranties contained in this Section 4.

and, upon the receipt of any notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in this Section 7.1(a)(iii)(D)(2), (3) (but only with respect to the jurisdiction suspending qualification), (4) or (5), (I) the Purchaser shall forthwith discontinue any offer and disposition of the Shares and the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Shares and Warrant Shares and, if so directed by the Company, shall deliver to the Company all copies (other than permanent file copies) of the defective prospectus covering such Shares and Warrant Shares that are then in the Purchaser's possession or control, and (II) the Company shall, as promptly as practicable thereafter (subject, in the case of Section 7.1(a)(iii)(D)(4), to the provisions of Section 7.1(d)), take such action as shall be necessary to remedy such event to permit the Purchaser to continue to offer and dispose of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, including, without limitation, preparing and filing with the SEC and furnishing to the Purchaser a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter deliverable to the purchasers of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (E) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Shares and the Warrant Shares covered by such Registration Statement under and to the extent required by such other securities or state blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Purchaser shall request, and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary under such securities or blue sky laws to enable the Purchaser to consummate the public sale or other disposition in such jurisdictions of the Shares and the Warrant Shares owned by the Purchaser, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it is not so qualified or submit to liability for state or local taxes where it would not otherwise be liable for such taxes; (F) if requested by the Purchaser, promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as is required by the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and as the Purchaser specifies should be included therein relating to the terms of the sale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Shares and Warrant Shares being sold by the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchaser Group, the name and description of the Purchaser or such other member of the Purchaser Group, the offering price of such Shares and Warrant Shares and any other terms of the offering of the Shares and the Warrant Shares by the Purchaser or such other member of the Purchaser Group; and make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment promptly after notification of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; (G) use its best efforts to obtain the consent or approval of each governmental agency or authority, whether federal, state or local, that may be required to effect such registration or the offering or sale in connection therewith or to enable the Purchaser and any other member of the Purchaser Group to offer, or to consummate the disposition of, the Shares and the Warrant Shares; (H) furnish to the Purchaser on a timely basis and at the Company's expense, certificates free of any restrictive legends representing ownership of the Shares or Warrant Shares sold in such denominations and registered in such names as the Purchaser shall request, and notify the transfer agent of the Company's securities that it may effect transfers of the Shares and the Warrant Shares upon notification from the Purchaser that it has complied with this Agreement and the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act; and (I) comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make generally available to its securityholders, as soon as practicable but in any event not later than 18 months after the Effective Date, an earning statement of the Company and its subsidiaries complying with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act (including, at the option of the Company, Rule 158 thereunder). (b) Payment of Expenses. All expenses incurred by the Company in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7.1 (including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses and the expenses of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration, but excluding all applicable underwriting discounts and selling commissions) shall be borne by the Company. (c) Information Furnished by the Purchaser. It shall be a condition precedent to the Company's obligations under this Section 7.1 that the Purchaser furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding the Purchaser and the distribution of the Shares and the Warrant Shares proposed by the Purchaser as the Company may reasonably request to complete or amend the information required by the Registration Statement. (d) Information Blackout; No Stabilization. (i) At any time when the Registration Statement is effective, upon written notice from the Company to the Purchaser that the Company, after consultation with outside counsel, has determined reasonably and in good faith that the sale of Shares and Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement would require disclosure of non-public material information, the disclosure of which at such time could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business or affairs of the Company or a material adverse effect on any proposal or plan by the Company or any of its subsidiaries to engage in any extraordinary engagement or activity by the Company, including, without limitation, any material acquisition of assets or any merger, consolidation, tender offer or similar transaction, the Purchaser shall suspend sales of the Shares and the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement until the earlier of (A) 45 days after the Company notifies the Purchaser of such good faith determination, and (B) such time as the Company notifies the Purchaser that such material information has been disclosed to the public or has ceased to be material or that sales pursuant to the Registration Statement may otherwise be resumed (the number of days from such suspension of sales by the Holders until the day when such sales may be resumed hereunder is hereinafter called a "SALES BLACKOUT PERIOD"). A Sales Blackout Period shall not preclude any sales of Shares or Warrant Shares that the Purchaser may effect in compliance with Rule 144; provided that the Purchaser otherwise conforms with the requirements under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. (ii) No Sales Blackout Period shall be commenced by the Company within 90 days after Closing or the end of a Sales Blackout Period, and the Company shall not be permitted to commence more than two Sales Blackout Periods in any 12 month period. (iii) The Purchaser shall not, during the Registration Period, (A) effect any stabilization transactions or engage in any stabilization activity in connection with the Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company in contravention of Regulation M under the Exchange Act, or (B) permit any "Affiliated Purchaser" (as that term is defined in Regulation M under the Exchange Act) to bid for or purchase for any account in which the Purchaser has a beneficial interest, or attempt to induce any other Person to purchase, any shares of Common Stock or Shares or Warrant Shares in contravention of Regulation M under the Exchange Act. (e) Indemnification. (i) With respect to the offering and sale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares made pursuant to the Registration Statement only, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, its officers, directors, members and partners, and each Person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing within the meaning of the Securities Act ("PURCHASER INDEMNITEES"), from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, expenses and judgments, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, and shall promptly reimburse them, as and when incurred, for any legal or other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating any claims and defending any actions, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions shall arise out of, or shall be based upon, any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, any blue sky laws or securities laws of any state or county in which the Shares and the Warrant Shares are offered, and relating to action taken or action or inaction required of the Company in connection with such offering, or shall arise out of, or shall be based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein) relating to the offering and sale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in any document incorporated by reference therein, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, the Company shall not be liable to any Purchaser Indemnitee in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission, if such statement or omission shall have been made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of any Purchaser Indemnitee for inclusion in the Registration Statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein), or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Purchaser Indemnitee and shall survive the transfer of such securities. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have to any Purchaser Indemnitee. (ii) With respect to the offering and sale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares made pursuant to the Registration Statement only, the Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers and directors and each Person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing within the meaning of the Securities Act (the "COMPANY INDEMNITEES"), from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, expenses and judgments, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, and shall promptly reimburse them, as and when incurred, for any legal or other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating any claims and defending any actions, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions shall arise out of, or shall be based upon, any violation or alleged violation by the Purchaser of the Securities Act, any blue sky laws or securities laws of any state or country in which the Shares and the Warrant Shares are offered and relating to action taken or action or inaction required of the Purchaser in connection with such offering, or shall arise out of, or shall be based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein) relating to the offering and sale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that such untrue statement is contained in, or such fact is omitted from, information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of the Purchaser for inclusion in the Registration Statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein). Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Company Indemnitee. The foregoing indemnity is in addition to any liability that the Purchaser may otherwise have to any Company Indemnitee. (iii) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section 7.1(e), such Person (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing. No indemnification provided for in subsection (i) or (ii) shall be available to any Person who shall fail to give notice as provided in this subsection (iii) if the indemnifying party to whom notice was not given was unaware of the proceeding to which such notice would have related and was materially prejudiced by the failure to give such notice, but the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party or parties from any liability that it or they may have to the indemnified party for indemnification pursuant to subsection (i) or (ii) to the extent it was not materially prejudiced. In case any such proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and shall pay as incurred the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall pay as incurred the fees and expenses of the counsel retained by the indemnified party in the event (A) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (B) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel, in the written opinion of such counsel, would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, or (C) the indemnifying party does not promptly defend the indemnified party. The indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm for all such indemnified parties (in addition to local counsel if required). Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Purchaser in the case of Purchaser Indemnitees and by the Company in the case of Company Indemnitees. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party shall indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. The obligations of the Company and the Purchaser under this Section 7.1(e) shall survive the completion of any offering of Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement. (iv) The indemnity provided for hereunder shall not inure to the benefit of any indemnified party to the extent that the claim is based on such indemnified party's failure to comply with the applicable prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as then applicable to the Person asserting the loss, claim, damage or liability for which indemnity is sought. (v) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.1(e) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any claims, liabilities, losses, damages, expenses or judgments referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such claim, liability, loss, damage, expense or judgment in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the circumstances that resulted in such claim, liability, loss, damage, expense or judgment, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7.1(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable consideration referred to in this paragraph (v). (vi) In no event shall the liability of the Purchaser under this Section 7.1(e), whether for indemnification or contribution, exceed the net proceeds received by the Purchaser from the sale of Shares and the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement. (f) Rule 144. With a view to making available to the Purchaser the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Purchaser to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, in addition to the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1, the Company shall: (i) make and keep adequate current public information with respect to the Company available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; (ii) use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to the Purchaser upon written request (A) a written statement by the Company as to whether it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (C) such other reports and documents of the Company as the Purchaser may reasonably request and as is publicly available to enable the Purchaser to avail itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration. 7.2 OBSERVER RIGHTS. On and after the Closing until the earlier of (i) the fifth anniversary of this Agreement or (ii) the date on which the Purchaser Group (as defined in Section 10.4 below) ceases to collectively own a number of shares of Common Stock equal to at least thirty percent (30%) of the shares of Common Stock held collectively by the Purchaser Group immediately after the Closing (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, reorganizations, reclassifications and other similar events), the Company shall permit one (1) representative designated by the Purchaser and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the "PURCHASER OBSERVER") to attend, in a non-voting observer capacity, each meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company and each meeting of any committee thereof and to participate in all discussions during each such meeting. The Company shall send to the Purchaser Observer notice of the time and place of any such meeting, in the same manner and at the same time as notice is sent to its directors. The Company shall also provide to the Purchaser Observer copies of all notices, reports, minutes, contracts and other documents, at the time and in the same manner as such documents are provided to the Board of Directors of the Company. Any materials furnished to the Purchaser Observer and the discussions and presentations in connection with or at any meeting shall be considered confidential information and the Purchaser Observer will keep such materials and discussions confidential and will not disclose or divulge such materials and discussions to any third party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company reserves the right to exclude the Purchaser Observer from access to any materials or meetings or portions thereof if the Board of Directors or management of the Company shall reasonably determine, upon advice of counsel in the case of (A) or (B), that such exclusion is necessary (A) to preserve the attorney-client privilege, (B) to prevent a conflict of interest, (C) to protect confidential proprietary information or (D) because the Purchaser Observer's presence may otherwise be detrimental to the business interests of the Company. The Company expressly acknowledges that any of the following persons would be acceptable to the Company if selected by the Purchaser to serve as Purchaser Observer: Robert Pick, Brad Dusto, Mark Hess, and Steve Heeb. 7.3 FUTURE AND CURRENT INVESTMENTS AND ACTIVITIES; INFORMATION. (a) The Company acknowledges that (i) the Purchaser and its Affiliates engage in a wide variety of activities and have investments in many other companies, (ii) it is critical to the Purchaser that the Purchaser and its Affiliates be permitted to continue to develop their current and future businesses and investment activities without any restriction arising from an investment by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in the Company, the right of the Purchaser to designate a Purchaser Observer or any relationship, contractual or otherwise, between the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates and the Company or any of its Affiliates, and (iii) from time to time, in connection with the foregoing activities of the Purchaser and its current and future Affiliates (the "ACTIVITIES"), the Purchaser and its Affiliates may have information that may be useful to the Company (which information may or may not be known by the Purchaser Observer). The Company further acknowledges that (I) the Company does not intend or desire that the relationship of the Purchaser and any of its Affiliates with the Company and any of its Affiliates (A) interfere with or impose conditions or restrictions on any of the Activities of the Purchaser or any of its current or future Affiliates, or (B) confer upon the Company any right to participate in any of the Activities of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, and (II) the Company intends and desires that (X) the Purchaser and its Affiliates shall be free to engage in the Activities in any capacity, whether active or passive, without any obligation or liability to the Company or to its shareholders, including, without any limitation, any obligation to offer the Company a right to acquire, participate or have any interest of any nature whatsoever in any of such Activities, and (Y) the Purchaser, its Affiliates and the Purchaser Observer shall have no duty to disclose any information known to such person to the Company; provided, however, that this Section 7.3 shall not relieve the Purchaser, its Affiliates or the Purchaser Observer of its or his duty of confidentiality with respect to information pertaining to the Company. (b) The Company acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth in any written agreement between the Company or any of its Affiliates and the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall have any duty or obligation to use or promote the use of any of the goods, products, equipment or services offered by the Company. 7.4 MOST FAVORED INVESTOR TREATMENT. (a) From the date hereof until the date six months following the Closing Date, in the event that the Company or any of its Affiliates sells or issues, or enters into any agreements (whether oral or written) regarding the sale or issuance of, (i) any shares of the Company's Common Stock, (ii) any securities convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of the Company's Common Stock or (iii) any options, warrants or other rights to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of the Company's Common Stock, on terms (including, but not limited to, (A) a greater than 8% discount in the purchase price from the then current market value of the shares of Common Stock or other securities so purchased, (B) the number of options, warrants or other purchase rights issued as a percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities purchased and the terms (including, without limitation, the duration and exercise price) of such options, warrants or other purchase rights, and (C) the registration rights granted with respect to the securities so purchased) that are more favorable to the purchaser thereof than those terms contained in this Agreement, the Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall take such measures (including, without limitation, the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock, an adjustment to the terms of the Warrant and the number of shares issuable thereunder and an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement) to ensure that the Purchaser is afforded the benefit of such terms, without any additional consideration and applied retroactively to the terms of this Agreement, the Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement. The "most favored investor" status afforded the Purchaser hereunder shall apply by comparison of all of the terms contained in this Agreement, the Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement to all of the terms pertaining to any subsequent sale or issuance of securities, such that the overall investment by any third party shall be on no more favorable terms than the overall investment by the Purchaser hereunder, each taken in its entirety. The Purchaser acknowledges that a third party may have more favorable terms with regard to a specific line item, and such shall not in and of itself constitute a violation or breach of this Section 7.4. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Section 7.4 shall apply to the issuance of (i) stock options or stock grants to employees of the Company pursuant to the Company's stock option, stock incentive and stock purchase plans described in the Filed SEC Documents or otherwise approved by the Board of Directors of the Company or (ii) shares of the Company's Common Stock in connection with a public offering of such shares by the Company for its own account. 7.5 LISTING OF THE SHARES. The Company shall cause the Shares and the Warrant Shares to be listed on the Nasdaq National Market System or such other securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted. 7.6 WARRANT SHARES. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of the Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable from time to time upon such exercise. 7.7 HSR ACT FILINGS. In the event that, as the result of the Purchaser's decision to exercise the Warrant or any other warrants hereinafter issued by the Company to the Purchaser or for any other reason, it becomes necessary at any time after the Closing for the Purchaser to make any filings under the Hart- Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR ACT"), the Company shall cooperate with the Purchaser in connection with any such filings by (i) making all filings required to be made on the Company's part under the HSR Act and (ii) promptly furnishing, or causing to be furnished, any information that may be required by the Federal Trade Commission or the Department of Justice under the HSR Act. 7.8 FULFILLMENT OF CONDITIONS. Each of the Company and the Purchaser shall use its reasonable efforts to perform, comply with and fulfill all obligations, covenants and conditions required by this Agreement to be performed, complied with or fulfilled by it on or prior to the Closing Date, including, without limitation, all actions required under any law, rule or regulation adopted subsequent to the date hereof. 7.9 CONFIDENTIALITY; COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS. At Closing, the Purchaser and the Company shall execute a Confidentiality Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F. In addition, in connection with the Purchaser's observer rights pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof or otherwise through its relationship with the Company, the Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it may become aware of material non-public information concerning the Company and that the United States securities laws generally prohibit any person who has material non-public information concerning an issuer from publicly purchasing, selling or otherwise trading in securities of such issuer, and it shall comply with all applicable securities laws to the extent it receives any such information. SECTION 8 COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES ACT; RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY 8.1 COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES ACT. The Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares shall not be transferable except upon the conditions specified in Section 8.3, which conditions are intended, among other things, to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws in respect of any such transfer. 8.2 RESTRICTIVE LEGEND. The certificate or certificates representing the Shares and the Warrant Shares shall each be subject to the following legend restricting transfer under the Securities Act: THE TRANSACTION IN WHICH THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ACQUIRED WAS NOT REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW. NO TRANSFER OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE VALID OR EFFECTIVE UNLESS SUCH TRANSFER IS MADE (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (B) IN A TRANSACTION THAT QUALIFIES AS AN EXEMPT TRANSACTION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND FOR WHICH, SUBJECT TO LIMITED EXCEPTIONS, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT HAS BEEN PROVIDED. The Company shall remove this legend from the certificate or certificates representing any of the Shares or the Warrant Shares upon the termination of the restrictions on transferability with respect to such Shares or Warrant Shares, in accordance with the last sentence of Section 8.4. 8.3 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY. The Company shall not be required to register the transfer of the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares on the books of the Company unless the Company shall have been provided with an opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares, as applicable, are eligible for transfer without registration under the Securities Act; provided, however, that no such opinion of counsel shall be necessary in order to effectuate a transfer of any of the Shares, the Warrant or Warrant Shares (i) in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act, (ii) with respect to the Shares and the Warrant Shares, in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in the Registration Statement or (iii) with respect to the Warrant Shares, in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in any other registration statement filed by the Company and covering the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. 8.4 TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY. The conditions precedent imposed by this Section 8 upon the transferability of the Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares shall cease and terminate as to any of the Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares (i) when such securities shall have been registered under the Securities Act and sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in the registration statement covering such securities (including, without limitation, the Registration Statement), (ii) at such time as the Company shall have been provided with an opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the restrictive legend on such securities is no longer required in order to establish compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act, or (iii) when such securities are transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or become transferable in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act. Whenever the conditions imposed by this Section 8 shall terminate as hereinabove provided with respect to any of the Shares or the Warrant Shares, the holder of any such securities bearing the legend set forth in Section 8.2 shall be entitled to receive from the Company, without expense (except for the payment of any applicable transfer taxes) and as expeditiously as possible, new stock certificates not bearing such legend. SECTION 9 TERMINATION 9.1 TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated at any time: (a) by mutual consent of the Company and the Purchaser in a written instrument; (b) by either the Purchaser or the Company if there has been a material breach on the part of the other of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement, which breach has not been cured within 30 days following receipt by the breaching party of notice of such breach; or (c) by either the Company or the Purchaser if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the 60th day after the date hereof unless the failure to close by such time is due to the breach of this Agreement by the party seeking to terminate; provided that if the Registration Statement has not been declared effective within such 60-day period, the Purchaser, in its sole discretion, may extend such 60-day period for an additional 60 days. 9.2 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either the Company or the Purchaser as provided in Section 9.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void; provided, however, that no termination of this Agreement shall relieve any party from liability resulting from a prior breach by such party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth herein. SECTION 10 MISCELLANEOUS 10.1 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the internal laws of the State of Delaware as applied to contracts entered into solely between residents of, and to be performed entirely within, such state, and without reference to principles of conflicts of laws or choice of laws. 10.2 SPECIFIC ENFORCEMENT; VENUE. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that each would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed by the other in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that each party shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by the other and to enforce this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof specifically against the other, in addition to any other remedy to which such aggrieved party may be entitled at law or in equity. Any action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any rights arising out of, this Agreement may be brought against any of the parties in the courts of the State of Delaware, County of New Castle, or in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein. Process in any action or proceeding referred to in the preceding sentence may be served on any party anywhere in the world. 10.3 SURVIVAL. The representations and warranties in Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall not merge in the performance of any obligation by any party hereto; provided, however, that the representations and warranties made shall only be deemed to have been made as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date (or such other date referenced in such representation or warranty). 10.4 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.
