D.          The Cash Investment shall be due and payable by the Investors to the Company upon the signing of this Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated as a result of the Company’s failure to obtain the Stockholder Approval, then the Company’s outstanding debt under the Financing Agreement shall automatically increase by the amount of the Cash Investment, as more particularly set forth herein.

E.           In connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, substantially concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Financing Agreement shall be amended in accordance with an amendment in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Financing Agreement Amendment”), and the Company shall issue to the Investors penny warrants in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “New Penny Warrants”).

Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 below, at the Closing, the Company shall issue and sell to each Investor, severally and not jointly, and each Investor shall purchase from the Company, severally and not jointly, the number of Preferred Shares set forth opposite such Investor’s name on the Schedule of Investors as set forth on Exhibit B, for an aggregate purchase price of $55,000,000, consisting of the Cash Investment and the Converted Debt, with the purchase price per Investor for both the Cash Investment and the Converted Debt as set forth opposite such Investor’s name under the Columns “Cash Purchase Price” and “Principal Amount of Converted Debt”, respectively, on Exhibit B. The purchase price for each share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be $1,000 per share (the “Purchase Price”).

(b)**    Closing**. The Closing shall occur remotely by exchange of documents and signatures on the first Business Day on which the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 below have been satisfied or waived, or at such other time and place as the Company and the Required Holders may mutually agree. For the avoidance of doubt, the Closing shall occur only after the filing of the Certificate of Designation, receipt of the approval by the Company’s stockholders of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the issuance of the Preferred Shares, the New Penny Warrants, all Conversion Shares and all New Penny Warrant Shares, in each case to the extent required by applicable rules of the Principal Market (the “Stockholder Approval”) and the implementation of the reverse stock split of the Common Stock at a ratio ranging from any whole number between 1-for-15 and 1-for-40 (the “Reverse Stock Split”), or such other ratio as may be approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), including at least one Preferred Director (as defined below) with the understanding that the target post-Reverse Stock Split price per share of Common Stock shall be at least $8.00 per share and delivery of the other closing deliverables contemplated hereby.

For the avoidance of doubt, interest accrued as of the Closing on the principal of the Term Loan B and the Delayed Draw Term Loan being cancelled hereunder will still be due and payable on the immediately succeeding interest payment date following the Closing under and in accordance with the Financing Agreement.

(e)**    Failure to Obtain Stockholder Approval; Cash Investment Added to Debt**. If this Agreement is terminated as a result of the Company’s failure to obtain the Stockholder Approval, then automatically, without any further action of any party, (i) the Cash Investment shall automatically be deemed to be an Obligation under the Financing Agreement, as amended by the Financing Agreement Amendment (the “Amended Financing Agreement”) and (ii) a fee shall be due and payable by Company to the Administration Agent for the account of the Investors (in their capacity as “Lenders”) under the Financing Agreement Amendment in an aggregate amount equal to $15,000,000, allocated among the Investors in accordance with the amounts funded by such Investors (the “SPA Non-Approval Fee”), which fee shall be fully earned and non-refundable on such date of termination, and payable in full in cash, together with the repayment in full of the Cash Investment, on the earliest to occur of (w) the Final Maturity Date, (x) the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations (other than the Cash Investment and the SPA Non-Approval Fee) that are due and payable under the Amended Financing Agreement, (y) the acceleration (including as a result of the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law) of all or any portion of the Obligations, or (z) the satisfaction, release, payment, restructuring, reorganization, replacement, reinstatement, defeasance or compromise of any of the Obligations, foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding or otherwise) or deed in lieu of foreclosure or the making of a distribution of any kind to the Administrative Agent and Lenders in full or partial satisfaction of the Obligations.

(ix)**    Adverse Disclosure**. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any registration at any time would require the Company to make any public disclosure of material non-public information, which disclosure, in the good faith determination of the Board, after consultation with counsel to the Company, (i) would be required to be made in any Registration Statement or prospectus in order for the applicable Registration Statement or prospectus not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein (in the case of any prospectus and any preliminary prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, (ii) would not be required to be made at such time if the Registration Statement were not being filed, and (iii) the Company has a bona fide business purpose for not making public or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Investor, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than three times or an aggregate of 120 days in any 12-month period, determined in good faith by the Board to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Investor agrees to suspend, immediately upon its receipt of the notice referred to above, its use of the prospectus relating to such registration in connection with any sale of, or offer to sell, securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus. The Company shall immediately notify the Investor of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 4(w).

During any suspension of use of a Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 4(w)(ix), the Company shall not be required to remove restrictive legends from Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares on the basis of such Registration Statement being available for resale, unless such Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares may be sold or transferred without restriction, pursuant to Rule 144 or another available exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

31


(x)**    Indemnification**. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Investor, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, affiliates, agents and representatives and each Person who controls such Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) (or actions in respect thereto) caused by, resulting from, arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or similar document incident to any registration, qualification, compliance or sale effected pursuant to this Section 4(w) or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities laws, and will reimburse, as incurred, the Investor, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, affiliates, agents and representatives and each Person who controls such Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act) for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is caused by or arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission made in reliance and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein.

(xi)**    Restrictive Legends**. The Company shall, upon an Investor’s request, cooperate with such Investor and deliver, or cause to be delivered, all customary and reasonably necessary documentation, including any legal opinion required to be delivered by counsel to the Company pursuant to the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, to cause the Transfer Agent to remove any restrictive legend from any Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares included in an effective Registration Statement or sold or eligible to be sold pursuant to Rule 144, in each case in accordance with Section 5(d). Any removal of restrictive legends, delivery of shares without restrictive legends-related timing requirements, transfer-agent or DTC fees and remedies for failure to timely deliver shall be covered by Section 5(d) and the Certificate of Designation.

(x)**    Investor Lock-Up**. Each Investor shall agree that from the Closing until the earlier of (A) seventy-five (75) days following the Closing Date and (B) thirty (30) days after the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC or otherwise becomes effective, such Investor will not, without the prior written consent of the Company, (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, lend or otherwise dispose of any Preferred Shares, Conversion Shares, options or warrants to purchase any Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive any Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares, including any such shares or derivative instruments then owned or thereafter acquired by such Investor, (ii) engage in any hedging or other transaction or arrangement, including any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, forward, swap or other derivative transaction or instrument, that is designed to or reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale, loan, pledge, other disposition or transfer of any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares, whether settled by delivery of securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to engage in any of the foregoing. Transfers to affiliates shall be permitted only if the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by this Section 4(x).

(y)**    Company Lock-Up**. From the date hereof until the earlier of (A) one hundred eighty (180) days following the Closing Date and (B) sixty (60) days after the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC or otherwise becomes effective, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall, directly or indirectly, issue, offer, sell, grant any option or right to purchase, or otherwise dispose of, or agree to issue, offer, sell, grant any option or right to purchase, or otherwise dispose of, any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, or file any registration statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, with respect to any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, other than (i) the Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 4(w), (ii) a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to securities issued or issuable pursuant to any equity incentive plan, employee stock purchase plan or other compensatory arrangement approved by the Board, (iii) the issuance of the Preferred Shares and the New Penny Warrants pursuant to this Agreement, (iv) the issuance of Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Preferred Shares in accordance with the Certificate of Designation, (v) the issuance of New Penny Warrant Shares upon exercise of the New Penny Warrants in accordance with the terms thereof, (vi) the issuance of Excluded Securities or (vii) any issuance of securities approved in advance in writing by the Required Holders*.*

32


(z)**    Transferability**. The Convertible Preferred Stock may not be transferred without the Company’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except for transfers to affiliates that agree in writing to be bound by the applicable restrictions in the Transaction Documents; provided that the Company shall be promptly notified of any such transfer.

(aa)**    Stockholder Approval; Reverse Stock Split**. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Stockholder Approval and the Reverse Stock Split are conditions to the Closing and that, following the Closing, the Company shall not delay the filing, effectiveness or continued availability of any Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 4(w) on the basis that the Stockholder Approval, the Reverse Stock Split or any related corporate action, Principal Market approval, DTC process, Transfer Agent process or other ministerial or administrative action has not been obtained, completed or effected.

To the extent any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 4(w) does not cover all Registrable Securities required to be included therein as a result of the timing of the Stockholder Approval, the Reverse Stock Split or any related corporate, regulatory, Principal Market, DTC or Transfer Agent process, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable and in any event within twenty (20) Business Days after the Stockholder Approval Date, the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split or the completion of such related process, as applicable, file a post-effective amendment, prospectus supplement or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, as applicable, to register the resale of all Registrable Securities not previously covered by an effective Registration Statement. Any such post-effective amendment, prospectus supplement or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be deemed a Registration Statement for purposes of Section 4(w), including the filing, effectiveness, maintenance and liquidated damages provisions set forth herein.

(bb)**    [RESERVED].**

(cc)**    Board of Directors; Governance Rights**. By no later than the Closing, the Company shall take or have taken all corporate and other action reasonably necessary to reduce the size of the Board to seven (7) members and to cause the Board to be comprised of Stephen La Neve, Joseph E. Whitters, Chan W. Galbato, James M. Hindman, Steven F. Mayer, Mika Nishimura, and a new independent board member who may be elected after the Closing but in any event not later than 120 calendar days after the Closing. Following the Closing and for so long as any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, TCW shall have the right, but not the obligation, to (A) designate up to two (2) individuals to serve as directors on the Board (for avoidance of doubt, so long as TCW has the right to designate one (1) individual to serve as a director on the Board pursuant to that certain Governance Agreement, dated June 6, 2025, by and between the Company and TCW, as may be amended from time to time (the “Governance Agreement”), the right to designate two (2) individuals to serve as directors on the Board under this Section 4(cc) shall be inclusive of the one (1) individual that TCW has the right to designate under the Governance Agreement) and (B) appoint up to two (2) individuals to be appointed as non-voting observers to the Board (for avoidance of doubt, the right to designate two (2) individuals to serve as non-voting observers to the Board under this Section 4(cc) shall be inclusive of the two (2) individuals that TCW has the right to designate as non-voting observers to the Board under the Governance Agreement), by delivery of written notice to the Company. The initial director designees of TCW shall be Chan W. Galbato, and Steven F. Mayer (each, a “Preferred Director”). The Company shall nominate each Preferred Director, or any replacement thereof designated in accordance with this Section 4(cc), for re-election to the Board at each annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company at which directors of the class or group of directors of which such Preferred Director is a member are to be elected. The Company shall use the same level of effort that it uses to cause the election of other members of the Board that are not Preferred Directors, but in any event no less than commercially reasonable efforts, to cause the election of each Preferred Director, including by (i) recommending that the Company’s stockholders vote in favor of the election of each Preferred Director, (ii) including each Preferred Director in the Company’s proxy statement and proxy card for such meeting, (iii) soliciting proxies in favor of the election of each Preferred Director to the same extent as the Company solicits proxies in favor of the election of its other nominees and (iv) otherwise supporting each Preferred Director for election in a manner no less rigorous and favorable than the manner in which the Company supports its other nominees in the aggregate.

33


In addition, for so long as TCW is entitled to designate at least one Preferred Director, (i) each of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board shall include at least one Preferred Director (subject to applicable independence requirements of the Principal Market and applicable law), and (ii) the Company shall not establish any executive committee, finance committee or other committee of the Board with material authority over any of the matters that require the approval of the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock under the Certificate of Designation unless a Preferred Director is a member of such committee; provided that the Company may establish one or more special committees of independent directors with respect to any transaction that may reasonably be deemed to present a conflict of interest between the Company and TCW or the Preferred Directors. The Company shall enter into an indemnification agreement with each Preferred Director on terms no less favorable than those provided to any other director of the Company, and shall maintain customary directors’ and officers’ liability insurance with limits and on terms reasonably acceptable to TCW.

If at any time a vacancy occurs on the Board with respect to the directorship of any Preferred Director (by reason of such director’s death, disability, resignation or removal), TCW shall have the right to designate a replacement Preferred Director for appointment to fill such vacancy. Each Preferred Director may resign from the Board at any time, and, subject to applicable law and the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, TCW shall have the right at any time to remove (with or without cause) any Preferred Director.

If the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board determines in good faith that any Preferred Director designated by TCW (i) is not qualified to serve on the Board consistent with its duly adopted policies and procedures applicable to all directors or (ii) does not satisfy the applicable requirements of the national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed for trading regarding service as a director of the Company, the Company shall notify TCW of such determination and TCW shall withdraw its designation of such Preferred Director (or, if such Preferred Director has already been appointed, cause such director to resign), and TCW shall have the right to designate a different individual as a Preferred Director in accordance with this Section 4(cc).

(dd)**    Preemptive Rights**.

(i)**    Right to Participate in Certain Sales of Additional Securities**. For so long as any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Company agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, sell or issue any shares of Common Stock, Preferred Stock or other equity securities of the Company or any Subsidiary, or any Common Stock Equivalents or other securities, rights, options, warrants or similar instruments convertible into, exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitling the holder thereof to acquire, any such equity securities, unless the Company first delivers to the Investors a written notice (a “Preemptive Right Notice”), which Preemptive Right Notice shall be subject to Section 4(i)(ii), setting forth in reasonable detail (A) the designation and all of the terms and provisions of the securities proposed to be issued (the “Proposed Securities”), including, to the extent applicable, the voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, (B) the price, timing and other terms of the proposed sale of such Proposed Securities and (C) the amount of such Proposed Securities proposed to be issued; provided that, following the delivery of such notice, the Company shall deliver to the Investors such additional information as the Investors may reasonably request in order to evaluate the proposed issuance.

(ii)**    Participation Right**. To the extent each Investor is eligible under applicable securities laws, the Company shall offer to issue and sell to each Investor, on the same terms as the Proposed Securities are issued and upon full payment by such Investor, up to such Investor’s pro rata portion of the Proposed Securities.

(iii)**    Exercise Period**. Each Investor shall have the option, exercisable by written notice delivered to the Company, to accept the Company’s offer and commit to purchase any or all of the Proposed Securities offered to be sold by the Company to such Investor, which notice must be given prior to the later of (A) five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Preemptive Right Notice from the Company and (B) two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date set forth in the Preemptive Right Notice (the “Preemptive Right Lapse Time”). If the Company offers two (2) or more securities as a unit to all other participants in the offering, the Investors shall be given the same choice as provided to such other participants in the offering.

34


(iv)**    Closing**. The closing of the exercise of such subscription right shall take place simultaneously with the closing of the sale of the Proposed Securities giving rise to such subscription right; provided, however, that the closing of any purchase by any Investor may be extended beyond the closing of the sale of the Proposed Securities giving rise to such preemptive right to the extent necessary to obtain required approvals from any Governmental Entity or the Principal Market.

(v)**    Sale of Unsubscribed Securities**. Upon the expiration of the offering period described above, the Company shall be free to sell such Proposed Securities that the Investors have not elected to purchase during the sixty (60)-day period following such expiration on terms and conditions no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to the Investors in the Preemptive Right Notice delivered in accordance with this Section 4(dd). Any Proposed Securities offered or sold by the Company after such sixty (60)-day period must be reoffered to the Investors pursuant to this Section 4(dd).

(vi)**    No Waiver**. The election by any Investor not to exercise its preemptive rights under this Section 4(dd) in any one instance shall not affect its right as to any subsequent proposed issuance.

(vii)**    Non-Cash Consideration**. In the case of an issuance subject to this Section 4(dd) for consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange therefor, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board.

(viii)**    Stockholder Approval Limitation**. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(dd), the Company shall not be required to offer to issue or sell to any Investor the portion of the Proposed Securities that would require the Company to obtain Stockholder Approval in respect of the issuance of such Proposed Securities to such Investor under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market unless such Stockholder Approval has been obtained; provided, however, that the Company shall still be obligated to provide the Preemptive Right Notice to the Investors, which notice shall include a description of the Proposed Securities, including the number thereof, that would require Stockholder Approval in respect of the issuance thereof. In such event, upon the reasonable request of the Required Holders delivered to the Company in writing at or before the Preemptive Right Lapse Time, the Company shall consider and discuss in good faith modifications proposed by the Required Holders to the terms and conditions of such portion of the Proposed Securities that would otherwise be issued to the Investors such that the Company would not be required to obtain Stockholder Approval in respect of the issuance of such Proposed Securities as so modified.

(ix)**    Excluded Securities**. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights granted to the Investors under this Section 4(dd) shall be inapplicable with respect to the issuance of Excluded Securities. For purposes of this Section 4(dd), “Excluded Securities” means securities issued or issuable: (A) upon conversion, exercise or exchange of the Preferred Shares, the New Penny Warrants or any other securities issued pursuant to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; (B) by reason of a dividend, stock split, split-up, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction with respect to the Common Stock; (C) to employees, officers, directors, consultants or advisors of the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to any equity incentive plan, employee stock purchase plan or other compensatory plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board; (D) upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of options, warrants or convertible securities outstanding as of the Closing Date and disclosed in the SEC Documents or to the Investors, in each case, in accordance with the terms thereof as in effect on the Closing Date; or (E) as otherwise agreed by the Company and the Required Holders.

35


(ee)**    Tax Matters**. The parties intend that (i) the issuance of the Convertible Preferred Stock and New Penny Warrants in exchange for the Converted Debt qualify as a tax-free recapitalization under Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, and (ii) the New Penny Warrants and the Convertible Preferred Stock be treated as “common stock” for purposes of Sections 304, 305, 306, 354, 368, 1036 and 1202 of the Code. The parties shall cooperate to so qualify the exchange and to so treat the New Penny Warrants and Convertible Preferred Stock and with respect to the allocation of value among the New Penny Warrants on one hand and the Convertible Preferred Stock on the other hand (provided that if the parties are unable to agree thereon, each party can use its own allocation methodology). The Company shall use reasonable best efforts not to cause the holders of any of the New Penny Warrants or the Convertible Preferred Stock (or Common Stock) to be subject to the phantom income rules of Section 305 of the Code (including by reason of Section 305(b)(2) of the Code) and the fair market value of the Preferred Shares and the New Penny Warrants is no less than the $55,000,000 and is not expected to result in any cancellation of debt income pursuant to Section 108(e)(8) of the Code. The parties shall also cooperate with respect to the treatment of Accruing Dividends as not currently taxable for U.S. federal income (and applicable state, local and non-U.S.) Tax purposes, including any reporting obligations under Section 305 of the Code (if any), and the Company shall bear economic responsibility for any withholding Tax obligations imposed on the Investors in respect of Accruing Dividends (as defined in the Certificate of Designation); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to bear economic responsibility for any such withholding Tax obligations to the extent such withholding Tax obligations result from (A) an Investor’s failure to provide, upon the Company’s reasonable request, a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8EXP, W-8IMY or other applicable Tax form, certification or documentation required to establish an exemption from, or reduction in, applicable withholding Tax or to permit the Company to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, (B) an Investor’s failure to update or replace any such form, certification or documentation upon the expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy thereof after reasonable request by the Company, or (C) an Investor’s transfer of Convertible Preferred Stock or New Penny Warrants to a transferee that fails to provide such applicable Tax form, certification or documentation.

5.**            REGISTER; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS; LEGEND.**

(a)**    Register**. The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each holder of Securities), a register for the Preferred Shares and the New Penny Warrants in which the Company shall record the name and address of the Person in whose name the Preferred Shares and the New Penny Warrants have been issued (including the name and address of each transferee), the aggregate number of Preferred Shares held by such Person, the number of Conversion Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation and the number of New Penny Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the New Penny Warrants held by such Person. The Company shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Investor or its legal representatives.

(b)**    Transfer Agent Instructions**. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to the Transfer Agent in a form acceptable to each of the Investors (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) to issue certificates or book entry statements or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC, registered in the name of each Investor or its respective nominee(s), for the Conversion Shares and the New Penny Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Investor to the Company upon conversion of the Preferred Shares or the exercise of the New Penny Warrants (as the case may be). The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5(b), and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(g) hereof, will be given by the Company to the Transfer Agent with respect to the Securities, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company, as applicable, to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. If an Investor effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities in accordance with Section 2(g), the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct the Transfer Agent to issue one or more certificates or book entry statements or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Investor to effect such sale, transfer or assignment. In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144, the Transfer Agent shall issue such shares to such Investor, assignee or transferee (as the case may be) without any restrictive legend in accordance with Section 5(d) below. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to an Investor. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5(b) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5(b), that an Investor shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal opinion referred to in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to the Transfer Agent on the date that the applicable Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC. Any fees (with respect to the Transfer Agent, counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinion or the removal of any legends on any of the Securities shall be borne by the Company.

36


(c)**    Transfer Restrictions; ** Legends.

(i)**    Transfer Restrictions**. The Securities may only be sold, assigned, pledged, transferred or otherwise disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than (A) pursuant to an effective Registration Statement, (B) pursuant to Rule 144, (C) to the Company, (D) to an affiliate of an Investor which is controlled by such Investor, or (E) in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 5(c)(ii), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of any transfer of Preferred Shares or New Penny Warrants, other than pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or Rule 144, such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the applicable terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and shall have the applicable rights and obligations of an Investor under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no transferee of Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement, Rule 144 or another available exemption from registration under the Securities Act shall be required to become bound by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document solely as a result of such transfer. Each Investor hereby covenants and agrees not to effect any sale or other transfer of the Securities other than (i) pursuant to the plan of distribution contained in a Registration Statement, (ii) in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144, or (iii) in compliance with another exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

(ii)**    Pledges**. The Company acknowledges and agrees that an Investor may from time to time pledge, pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer, or grant a security interest in, some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, or otherwise pledge Securities in connection with a bona fide loan or financing arrangement secured by such Securities, and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Investor may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such pledge or transfer shall not be subject to the approval of the Company, and no legal opinion of counsel to the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice to the Company shall be required in connection with any such pledge.

At the applicable Investor’s expense, the Company shall execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with any such pledge or transfer of the Securities, including, if the Securities are subject to registration pursuant to Section 4(w), the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling stockholders thereunder; provided that the Company shall not be required to file more than one such prospectus supplement in any fiscal quarter.

(iii)**    Legends**. Each Investor understands that the Securities have been issued (or will be issued in the case of the Conversion Shares and the New Penny Warrant Shares) pursuant to an exemption from registration or qualification under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and except as set forth below, the Securities shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates or book entry statements):

[NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE [CONVERTIBLE] [EXERCISABLE] HAVE BEEN][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 MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER (IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY), IN A FORM REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD OR ELIGIBLE TO BE SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

37


(iv)**    Resales**. Each Investor, severally and not jointly with the other Investors, agrees with the Company that such Investor will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, such Securities will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein. Each Investor acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates or book entries representing Securities as set forth in Section 5(d) is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this understanding.

(d)**    Removal of Legends**. Certificates or book entries evidencing Securities shall not be required to contain the legend set forth in Section 5(c) above or any other legend (i) while a registration statement (including a Registration Statement) covering the resale of such Securities is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an affiliate of the Company), (iii) if such Securities are eligible to be sold, assigned or transferred under Rule 144 (provided that an Investor provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such Securities are eligible for sale, assignment or transfer under Rule 144 which shall not include an opinion of Investor’s counsel), (iv) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer (other than under Rule 144), provided that such Investor provides the Company with an opinion of counsel to such Investor, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act or (v) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including, without limitation, controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC). If a legend is not required pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall no later than one (1) Business Day (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the Exchange Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the date such Investor delivers such legended certificate representing such Securities to the Company) following the delivery by an Investor to the Company or the Transfer Agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such Securities (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer, if applicable), together with any other deliveries from such Investor as may be required above in this Section 5(d), as directed by such Investor, either: (A) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”) and such Securities are Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares, credit the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which such Investor shall be entitled to such Investor’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (B) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to such Investor, a certificate or book entry statement representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends, registered in the name of such Investor or its designee (the date by which such credit is so required to be made to the balance account of such Investor’s or such Investor’s designee with DTC or such certificate or book entry statement is required to be delivered to such Investor pursuant to the foregoing is referred to herein as the “Required Delivery Date”, and the date such shares of Common Stock are actually delivered without restrictive legend to such Investor or such Investor’s designee with DTC, as applicable, the “Share Delivery Date”). The Company shall be responsible for any Transfer Agent fees or DTC fees with respect to any issuance of Securities or the removal of any legends with respect to any Securities in accordance herewith.

(e)**    Failure to Timely Deliver; Buy-In**. If the Company fails, for any reason or for no reason, to issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to an Investor (or its designee) by the Required Delivery Date, either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, a certificate or book entry statement for the number of Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares (as the case may be) to which such Investor is entitled and register such Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares (as the case may be) on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, to credit the balance account of such Investor or such Investor’s designee with DTC for such number of Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by such Investor pursuant to Section 5(d) above or (II) if the Registration Statement covering the resale of the Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by such Investor pursuant to Section 5(d) above (the “Unavailable Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Shares and the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than as required pursuant to Section 4(w) (x) so notify such Investor and (y) deliver the Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares, as applicable, electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by such Investor pursuant to Section 5(d) above to such Investor’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred to as a “Notice Failure” and together with the event described in clause (I) above, a “Delivery Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Investor, the Company shall pay in cash to such Investor on each day after the Share Delivery Date and during such Delivery Failure an amount equal to 2% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to such Investor on or prior to the Required Delivery Date and to which such Investor is entitled, and (B) any actual and reasonable trading price of the Common Stock selected by such Investor in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the date of the delivery by such Investor to the Company of the applicable Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Date. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Required Delivery Date either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate or book entry statement to an Investor and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, credit the balance account of such Investor or such Investor’s designee with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such Investor submitted for legend removal by such Investor pursuant to Section 5(d) above or (II) a Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after such Business Day such Investor acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Investor of shares of Common Stock submitted for legend removal by such Investor pursuant to Section 5(d) above that such Investor is entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within one Business Day after such Investor’s request and in such Investor’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to such Investor in an amount equal to such Investor’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs, and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any, for the shares of Common Stock so acquired) (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of such applicable Investor) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so deliver such certificate or book entry statement or credit such Investor’s balance account shall terminate and such shares shall be cancelled, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so deliver to such Investor a certificate, certificates or book entry statement or credit the balance account of such Investor or such Investor’s designee with DTC representing such number of shares of Common Stock that would have been so delivered if the Company timely complied with its obligations hereunder and pay cash to such Investor in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares (as the case may be) that the Company was required to deliver to such Investor by the Required Delivery Date multiplied by (B) the lowest Market Price (as defined in the New Penny Warrants) of the Common Stock on any Business Day during the period commencing on the date of the delivery by such Investor to the Company of the applicable Conversion Shares or New Penny Warrant Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this clause (ii). Nothing shall limit such Investor’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates or book entry statements representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) as required pursuant to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any given Notice Failure and/or Delivery Failure, this Section 5(e) shall not apply to the applicable Investor to the extent the Company has already paid such amounts in full to such Investor with respect to such Notice Failure and/or Delivery Failure, as applicable, pursuant to the analogous sections of the Certificate of Designation or New Penny Warrant, as applicable, with respect to the Preferred Shares or New Penny Warrants, as applicable, then held by such Investor.

9.**            MISCELLANEOUS.**

(a)**    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial**. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (unless expressly provided to the contrary in another Transaction Document with respect to such other Transaction Document) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document may be brought in the courts of the State of New York located in the County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto hereby irrevocably accepts, in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts and in any such action or Proceeding by any means permitted by applicable law, including, without limitation, by mailing copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such party at its address for notices as set forth in this Agreement, such service to become effective ten (10) days after such mailing. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Investors to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any party in any other jurisdiction. Each party hereby expressly and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the jurisdiction or laying of venue of any such litigation brought in any court referred to above and any claim that any such litigation has been brought in an inconvenient forum. To the extent that any party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each party hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Each party hereto hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim concerning any rights under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, or under any amendment, waiver, consent, instrument, document, or other agreement delivered, or that in the future may be delivered, in connection therewith, or arising from any financing relationship existing in connection with this Agreement, and agrees that any such action, proceeding, or counterclaim shall be tried before a court and not before a jury. The scope of this waiver is intended to be all-encompassing and to cover any and all disputes that may be filed in any court and that relate to the subject matter of this transaction, including contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims, and all other common law and statutory claims. Each party hereto certifies that no officer, representative, agent, or attorney of any other party hereto has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party hereto would not, in the event of any action, proceeding, or counterclaim, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers. Each party hereto hereby acknowledges that this provision is a material inducement for each other party hereto to enter into this Agreement.

(b)**    Counterparts**. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

42


(c)**    Headings; Gender**. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.

(d)**    Severability; Maximum Payment Amounts**. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and without implication that the following is required or applicable), it is the intention of the parties that in no event shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by any of the Investors, under the Transaction Documents (including without limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as “interest” under applicable law) exceed amounts permitted under any applicable law. Accordingly, if any obligation to pay, payment made to any Investor, or collection by any Investor pursuant to the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determined to be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of such Investor, the Company and its Subsidiaries and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law. Such adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing or refunding, at the option of such Investor, the amount of interest or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful amounts required to be paid or actually paid to such Investor under the Transaction Documents. For greater certainty, to the extent that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by such Investor under any of the Transaction Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term to otherwise be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.

43


(e)**    Entire Agreement; Amendments**. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Investors, the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions by any Investor with respect to Common Stock or the Securities, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Investor has entered into with, or any instruments any Investor has received from, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Investor in the Company or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any rights of or benefits to any Investor or any other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and any Investor, or any instruments any Investor received from the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full force and effect. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor any Investor makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Required Holders, and any amendment to any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Investors and holders of Securities, as applicable; provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (A) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding or (B) imposes any obligation or liability on any Investor without such Investor’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Investor’s sole discretion). No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the Required Holders may waive any provision of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Investors and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Investor without such Investor’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Investor’s sole discretion). No consideration (other than reimbursement of legal fees) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents, all holders of the Preferred Shares or all holders of the New Penny Warrants (as the case may be). From the date hereof and while any Preferred Shares or New Penny Warrants are outstanding, the Company shall not be permitted to receive any consideration from an Investor or a holder of Preferred Shares or New Penny Warrants that is not otherwise contemplated by the Transaction Documents in order to, directly or indirectly, induce the Company or any Subsidiary (i) to treat such Investor or holder of Preferred Shares or New Penny Warrants in a manner that is more favorable than to other similarly situated Investors or holders of Preferred Shares or New Penny Warrants, as applicable, or (ii) to treat any Investor(s) or holder(s) of Preferred Shares or New Penny Warrants in a manner that is less favorable than the Investor or holder of Preferred Shares or New Penny Warrants that is paying such consideration; provided, however, that the determination of whether an Investor has been treated more or less favorably than another Investor shall disregard any securities of the Company purchased or sold by any Investor. The Company has not, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with any Investors relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no Investor has made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to the Company, any Subsidiary or otherwise. As a material inducement for each Investor to enter into this Agreement, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by an Investor, any of its advisors or any of its representatives shall affect such Investor’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (ii) unless a provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is expressly preceded by the phrase “except as disclosed in the SEC Documents,” nothing contained in any of the SEC Documents shall affect such Investor’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. “Required Holders” means (i) TCW until such date after the Closing Date on which TCW and its affiliates no longer beneficially own any Registrable Securities issued or issuable hereunder or pursuant to the Certificate of Designation and/or the New Penny Warrants, and (ii)  thereafter, the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities as of such time (excluding any Registrable Securities held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as of such time) issued or issuable hereunder or pursuant to the Certificate of Designation and/or the New Penny Warrants.

(f)**    Notices**. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by electronic mail (provided that such sent email is kept on file (whether electronically or otherwise) by the sending party and the sending party does not receive an automatically generated message from the recipient’s email server that such e-mail could not be delivered to such recipient); or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service with next day delivery specified, in each case, properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

(g)**    Successors and Assigns**. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of any of the Preferred Shares and New Penny Warrants. The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, including, without limitation, by way of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the New Penny Warrants) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the New Penny Warrants) or a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Certificate of Designation). An Investor may not assign some or all of its rights hereunder without the consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed), other than an assignment of such rights in connection with any transfer of any of its Securities to one or more (x) Investors, (y) Affiliates or Related Funds (each as defined in the Financing Agreement) of any Investor or (z) commercial banks, insurance companies, or finance companies, financial institutions, any fund that invests in loans or any other “accredited investor” (as defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act) (other than a Competitor (as defined in the Financing Agreement)).

(h)**    No Third Party Beneficiaries**. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, other than the Indemnitees referred to in Section 9(k).

45


(i)**    Survival**. The representations and warranties of the Investors contained in Section 2 shall not survive the Closing. The representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 3 shall survive the Closing. All covenants and agreements of the parties contained herein shall survive until fully performed. Each Investor shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

(j)**    Further Assurances**. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k)**    Indemnification**. In consideration of each Investor’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and each holder of any Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary in any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary contained in any of the Transaction Documents or (iii) any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary) or which otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (C) any disclosure properly made by such Investor pursuant to Section 4(i), or (D) the status of such Investor or holder of the Securities either as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement (including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise in any action or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable relief). To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 9(k) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 4(w).

(l)**    Construction**. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each and every reference to share prices, shares of Common Stock and any other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock shall be automatically adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty against, or a prohibition of, any actions with respect to the borrowing of, arrangement to borrow, identification of the availability of, and/or securing of, securities of the Company in order for such Investor (or its broker or other financial representative) to effect short sales or similar transactions in the future.

46


(m)**    Remedies**. Each Investor and in the event of assignment by Investor of its rights and obligations hereunder, each holder of Securities, shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it or any Subsidiary fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its or such Subsidiary’s (as the case may be) obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law would provide inadequate relief to the Investors. The Company therefore agrees that the Investors shall be entitled to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

(n)**    Withdrawal Right**. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Investor exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company or any Subsidiary does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Investor may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company or such Subsidiary (as the case may be), any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

(o)**    Payment Set Aside**. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Investor hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or any of the Investors enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

(p)**    Independent Nature of Investors**’** Obligations and Rights**. The obligations of each Investor under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as, and the Company acknowledges that the Investors do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity, and the Company shall not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and the Company acknowledges that the Investors are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The decision of each Investor to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor. Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with such Investor making its investment hereunder and that no other Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring such Investor’s investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. The Company and each Investor confirms that each Investor has independently participated with the Company and its Subsidiaries in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The use of a single agreement to effectuate the purchase and sale of the Securities contemplated hereby was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of any Investor, and was done solely for the convenience of the Company and its Subsidiaries and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company, each Subsidiary and an Investor, solely, and not between the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Investors collectively and not between and among the Investors.

FORM OF CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION


CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS, PREFERENCES

AND RIGHTS OF SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

OF

ACCURAY INCORPORATED

Accuray Incorporated (the “Company”), a corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), does hereby certify that, pursuant to authority conferred upon the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) by the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, and pursuant to the provisions of the DGCL, the Board adopted resolutions (i) designating a series of the Company’s previously authorized preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, and (ii) providing for the designations,  powers, preferences and rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of Fifty-Five Thousand (55,000) shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, as follows:

RESOLVED, that the Company is authorized to issue Fifty-Five Thousand (55,000) shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Shares”), which shall have the following designations, powers, preferences and rights:

1. Ranking. The Series A Preferred Shares shall rank senior, prior and superior to all of the Common Stock and any other capital stock of the Company with respect to the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company. The rights of the shares of Common Stock and other capital stock of the Company shall be of junior rank to and subject to the preferences and relative rights of the Series A Preferred Shares. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning as set forth in Section 23 below.
2. Liquidation.
(a) Preferential Payment to Holders. In the event of a Liquidation Event, holders of record of Series A Preferred Shares (each, a “Holder” and collectively, the “Holders”) shall be entitled to receive in cash out of the assets of the Company, whether from capital or from earnings available for distribution to its stockholders (the “Liquidation Funds”) upon such Liquidation Event, but before any amount shall be paid to the holders of any of the capital stock of the Company of any class junior in rank to the Series A Preferred Shares in respect of the preferences as to distributions and payments upon such Liquidation Event (such stock being referred to hereinafter collectively as “Junior Stock”), an amount per Series A Preferred Share equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the Accrued Value and (ii) the amount such Holder would have received in respect of such Series A Preferred Share had it been converted into Common Stock pursuant to Section 4 at the then applicable Conversion Rate (as defined in Section 4(b)) immediately prior to such event; provided that, if the Liquidation Funds are insufficient to pay the full amount due to the Holders and holders of shares of other classes or series of preferred stock of the Company, if any, that are of equal rank with the Series A Preferred Shares as to payments of the Liquidation Funds (such stock being referred to hereinafter collectively as “Pari Passu Stock”), if any, then each Holder and each holder of any such Pari Passu Stock shall receive a percentage of the Liquidation Funds equal to the full amount of the Liquidation Funds that would be payable to such Holder as a liquidation preference, in accordance with their respective Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights, as a percentage of the full amount of the Liquidation Funds that would be payable to all holders of Series A Preferred Shares and Pari Passu Stock if the Liquidation Funds were sufficient to pay the full amount due to the holders of Series A Preferred Shares and Pari Passu Stock.
(b) Distribution of Remaining Assets. In the event of a Liquidation Event, after payment of all preferential amounts required to be paid to the Holders pursuant to Section 2(a), the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of shares of Junior Stock in accordance with their respective rights and privileges.

3. Dividends.
(a) Accruing Dividends. From and after the first date of issuance of any Series A Preferred Shares (the “Issuance Date”), the Holders shall be entitled to receive a cumulative preferential dividend (the “Accruing Dividend”) on each Series A Preferred Share, accruing at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum (the “Preferential Dividend Rate”) of the then-current Stated Value. The Accruing Dividend shall accrue daily from the Issuance Date but shall compound on a quarterly basis, to the extent not paid, on each Dividend Payment Date (i.e., no dividends shall accrue on unpaid dividends unless and until the first Dividend Payment Date for such unpaid dividends has passed), whether or not there are profits, surplus or other funds of the Company legally available for the payment of dividends but shall not be payable until legally permissible, as applicable.
(b) Payment of Accruing Dividends. The Accruing Dividend shall be payable quarterly in arrears for the previous calendar quarter and, at the election of the Board, either (i) be paid in cash out of funds or property legally available therefor under Delaware law, or (ii) accrue and compound, in an amount equal to the Preferential Dividend Rate multiplied by the then-current Stated Value. As of 5:00 p.m., New York City time (the “Close of Business”) on each Dividend Payment Date, the dollar amount of the Accruing Dividend (regardless of whether or not declared) that has accumulated on the Series A Preferred Shares for the previous calendar quarter will, automatically and without any further action by the Company or the Holders, be added, effective immediately before the Close of Business on the related Dividend Payment Date, to the then-current Stated Value of each Series A Preferred Share outstanding as of such time; provided, however, that such addition shall not occur nor be required if, as of the Close of Business on such Dividend Payment Date, the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, has settled the full amount of such Accruing Dividends in cash pursuant to this Section 3(b).
(c) Restrictions on Dividends. The Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the Required Holders, redeem or repurchase any equity interests ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Shares (other than the stock of employees upon the termination of such employees’ employment with the Company made in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice) unless the Company has declared and paid in cash all unpaid Accruing Dividends pursuant to this Section 3 on the Series A Preferred Shares that have accrued immediately preceding the date of such redemption or repurchase.
(d) Additional Dividends. In addition to Accruing Dividends, from and after the Issuance Date, the Holders shall be entitled to receive such dividends paid and distributions made to the holders of Common Stock to the same extent as if such Holders had converted the Series A Preferred Shares into Common Stock at the Conversion Price and had held such shares of Common Stock on the record date for such dividends and distributions. Payments under the preceding sentence shall be made concurrently with the dividend or distribution to the holders of Common Stock. Following the occurrence of a Liquidation Event and the payment in full to a Holder of its applicable liquidation preference as set forth in Section 2 above, such Holder shall cease to have any rights hereunder to participate in any future dividends or distributions made to the holders of Common Stock. The Company shall not declare or pay any dividends on any Junior Stock or Pari Passu Stock unless the Holders of Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding shall simultaneously receive a dividend on a pro rata basis as if the Series A Preferred Shares had been converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4 at the then applicable Conversion Rate (as defined in Section 4(b)) immediately prior to the record date for determining the stockholders eligible to receive such dividends.
4. Conversion of Series A Preferred Shares. Series A Preferred Shares shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4.
(a) Holder*’*s Conversion Right. At any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, any Holder shall be entitled to convert any whole number of Series A Preferred Shares, plus the amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends (including unpaid Accruing Dividends) per Series A Preferred Share then remaining, into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with this Section 4 at the then applicable Conversion Rate.
(b) Conversion. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of each Series A Preferred Share pursuant to Section 4(a) shall be determined according to the following formula (the “Conversion Rate”):
Accrued Value
Conversion Price

2


No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the conversion of any Series A Preferred Share, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The applicable Conversion Rate and Conversion Price from time to time in effect is subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided.

(c) Mechanics of Conversion. The conversion of Series A Preferred Shares shall be conducted in the following manner:

(i)    Holder*’*s Delivery Requirements. To convert Series A Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock on any date (a “Conversion Date”), a Holder shall (A) transmit by electronic mail (or otherwise personally deliver), for receipt on or prior to 4:59 p.m., New York City Time, on such date, a copy of a properly completed notice of conversion executed by the registered Holder of the Series A Preferred Shares subject to such conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company and (B) if required by Section 4(c)(vii), but without delaying the Company’s requirement to deliver shares of Common Stock on the applicable Share Delivery Date (as defined below), surrender to a common carrier for delivery to the Company as soon as practicable following such date the original certificates, if any, representing the Series A Preferred Shares being converted (or compliance with the procedures set forth in Section 16) (the “Series A Preferred Stock Certificates”).

(ii)    Company*’*s Response. Upon receipt by the Company of a copy of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall (A) as soon as practicable, but in any event within one (1) Trading Day, send, via electronic mail, a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to such Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein and (B) on or before the earlier of (I) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period and (II) the second (2nd) Trading Day, in each case, following the date of receipt by the Company of such Conversion Notice (a “Share Delivery Date”), (1) provided the Transfer Agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled to such Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) system, or (2) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate (which may be in electronic book entry form), registered in the name of such Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled.

(iii)    Record Holder. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of Series A Preferred Shares shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the applicable Conversion Date, irrespective of the date such shares of Common Stock are credited to such Holder’s or its designee’s account with DTC or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such shares of Common Stock, as the case may be.

(iv)    Buy-In. If the Company fails, prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date, to either credit shares of Common Stock to such Holder’s or its designee’s account with DTC or deliver the applicable certificate or certificates to such Holder in accordance with Section 4(c)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date such Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm is required to purchase, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the shares of Common Stock which such Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to such Holder the amount by which (x) such Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue (or, if less, the number of shares actually delivered in satisfaction of such sale) multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of such Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) the Series A Preferred Shares equal to the number of Series A Preferred Shares submitted for conversion or deliver to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements. For example, if a Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of Series A Preferred Shares with respect to which the actual sale price (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay such Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to such Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely credit shares of Common Stock to such Holder’s or its designee’s account with DTC or deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

3


(v)    Partial Liquidated Damages. If the Company fails to either credit shares of Common Stock to such Holder’s or its designee’s account with DTC or deliver the applicable certificate or certificates to such Holder in accordance with Section 4(c)(ii) by the Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $5,000 of Stated Value of Series A Preferred Shares being converted, $50 per Business Day (increasing to $100 per Business Day on the third Business Day and increasing to $200 per Business Day on the sixth Business Day after such damages begin to accrue) for each Business Day after the Share Delivery Date until such shares of Common Stock are delivered or Holder requests the reissue (if surrendered) of the Series A Preferred Shares. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to deliver the shares or pay the cash within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

(vi)    Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event the Company receives a Conversion Notice from more than one Holder for the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such Series A Preferred Shares, the Company shall convert from each Holder electing to have Series A Preferred Shares converted at such time a pro rata amount of such Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares submitted for conversion based on the number of Series A Preferred Shares submitted for conversion on such date by such Holder relative to the number of Series A Preferred Shares submitted for conversion on such date. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to a Holder in connection with a conversion of Series A Preferred Shares, the Company shall issue to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute.

(vii)    Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of Series A Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms hereof, to the extent that a Holder has been issued a physical certificate representing the Series A Preferred Shares, a Holder thereof shall not be required to physically surrender the certificate representing the Series A Preferred Shares to the Company unless (A) the full or remaining number of Series A Preferred Shares represented by the certificate are being converted, in which case such Holder shall deliver such stock certificate to the Company as soon as practicable following such conversion or (B) a Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of Series A Preferred Shares upon physical surrender of any Series A Preferred Shares. Each Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Series A Preferred Shares so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holders and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of the certificate representing the Series A Preferred Shares, if any, upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Company establishing the number of Series A Preferred Shares to which the record holder is entitled shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Series A Preferred Shares represented by a physical certificate are converted as aforesaid, a Holder may not transfer the certificate representing the Series A Preferred Shares unless such Holder first physically surrenders the certificate representing the Series A Preferred Shares to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of such Holder a new certificate of like tenor, registered as such Holder may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining number of Series A Preferred Shares represented by such certificate. A Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of a certificate, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of any Series A Preferred Shares, the number of Series A Preferred Shares represented by such certificate may be less than the number of Series A Preferred Shares stated on the face thereof. Each certificate for Series A Preferred Shares shall bear the following legend:

4


ANY TRANSFEREE OF THIS CERTIFICATE SHOULD CAREFULLY REVIEW THE TERMS OF THE COMPANY’S CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS RELATING TO THE SERIES A PREFERRED SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE, INCLUDING SECTION 4(c)(vii) THEREOF. THE NUMBER OF SERIES A PREFERRED SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE LESS THAN THE NUMBER OF SERIES A PREFERRED SHARES STATED ON THE FACE HEREOF PURSUANT TO SECTION 4(c)(vii) OF THE CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS RELATING TO THE SERIES A PREFERRED SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE.

(d) Mandatory Conversion at the Company*’*s Election.

(i)     General. If at any time, or from time to time, from and after the Issuance Date the Closing Sale Price has equaled or exceeded (subject to adjustment for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or other similar transaction during the Mandatory Conversion Measuring Period) the Conversion Price for at least twenty (20) of any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days (a “Mandatory Conversion Measuring Period”) immediately preceding the date the Company delivers to the applicable Holders of Series A Preferred Shares a mandatory conversion notice (a “Mandatory Conversion Notice”), the number of Series A Preferred Shares specified in the Mandatory Conversion Notice shall automatically convert on the Mandatory Conversion Date into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Accrued Value per Series A Preferred Share, divided by the Conversion Price then in effect (a “Mandatory Conversion”). The Company may exercise its right to require conversion under this Section 4(d) by delivering a Mandatory Conversion Notice within not more than one (1) Trading Day following the end of such Mandatory Conversion Measuring Period (the date all Holders received (or, in accordance with Section 9(f) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, are deemed to have received) such notice is referred to as a “Mandatory Conversion Notice Date”). Each Mandatory Conversion Notice shall be irrevocable. Each Mandatory Conversion Notice shall state (A) the Trading Day on which the applicable Mandatory Conversion shall occur, which Trading Day shall be the earlier of (I) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period and (II) the second (2nd) Trading Day, in each case, following the applicable Mandatory Conversion Notice Date (a “Mandatory Conversion Date”); (B) the aggregate number of Series A Preferred Shares which the Company has elected to be subject to such Mandatory Conversion from such Holder and all other Holders pursuant to this Section 4(d); and (C) the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to such Holder on the applicable Mandatory Conversion Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(d), until the applicable Mandatory Conversion has occurred, the Series A Preferred Shares subject to the Mandatory Conversion may be converted, in whole or in part, by a Holder into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4(c). All Series A Preferred Shares converted by a Holder after a Mandatory Conversion Notice Date but prior to the related Mandatory Conversion Date shall reduce the number of Series A Preferred Shares required to be converted on the related Mandatory Conversion Date, unless such Holder otherwise indicates in a Conversion Notice.

(ii)    Pro Rata Conversion Requirement. If the Company elects to cause a Mandatory Conversion pursuant to Section 4(d)(i), then it must simultaneously take the same action in the same proportion with respect to all Series A Preferred Shares. If the Company elects a Mandatory Conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares pursuant to Section 4(d)(i) with respect to less than all of the Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding, then the Company shall require conversion of a number of Series A Preferred Shares from each Holder equal to the product of (A) the aggregate number of Series A Preferred Shares which the Company has elected to cause to be converted pursuant to Section 4(d)(i), multiplied by (B) the fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the aggregate number of Series A Preferred Shares then held by such Holder and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Series A Preferred Shares then-outstanding.

(e) [RESERVED]

5


(f) Transfer Taxes. The issuance of shares of the Common Stock on conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares shall be made without charge to the Holders for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such shares of Common Stock.
(g) Adjustments to Conversion Price. The Conversion Price will be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 4(g).

(i)    Voluntary Adjustment By Company. The Company may at any time, with the prior written consent of the Required Holders, reduce the then current Conversion Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board.* *

(ii)    Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 4(g)(ii) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(iii)    Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4(g) but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Board will make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price, as mutually determined by the Board and the Required Holders, so as to protect the rights of the Holders; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(g)(iii) will increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 4(g).

(iv)    Calculations. All calculations under this Section 4(g) shall be made to the nearest cent.

(h) Notices.

(i)    Promptly upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 4(g), the Company will give written notice thereof to each Holder, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment.

(ii)     The Company will give written notice to each Holder at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Liquidation Event, provided that such information shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to such Holder.

(iii)    The Company will also give written notice to each Holder at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which any Liquidation Event will take place; provided that such information shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to such Holder.

(i) Pre-Delivery of Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with the prior written consent of a Holder, the Company may at any time or from time to time deliver shares of Common Stock to such Holder and such shares of Common Stock (as adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction occurring after the delivery thereof to such Holder) shall be used to offset any requirement thereafter to deliver shares of Common Stock hereunder to such Holder.
5. Redemption. The Company may not redeem any of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares.
6. Purchase Rights. If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then each Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder could have acquired if such Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of the Series A Preferred Shares) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

6


7. Reservation of Shares.
(a) Required Reserve. The Company shall have sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for each then-outstanding Series A Preferred Share equal to 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock necessary to effect the conversion of such Series A Preferred Share at the then applicable Conversion Rate. The Company shall, so long as any of the Series A Preferred Shares are outstanding, take all reasonable action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversions of the Series A Preferred Shares, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of all of the Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding (with the actions set forth in Section 7(b) being deemed reasonable and necessary); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock so reserved be less than 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Series A Preferred Shares are at any time convertible (the “Required Reserve Amount”).
(b) Insufficient Authorized Shares. If at any time while any of the Series A Preferred Shares remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall promptly take all reasonable action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding (with the actions set forth in this Section 7(b) being deemed reasonable and necessary). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause the Board to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C.
8. Voting Rights. Except as required by applicable law and set forth in this Certificate of Designations, the Series A Preferred Shares shall not have any voting rights.
9. Equal Treatment of Holders. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any of the Holders to amend or waive or modify any provision of the Series A Preferred Shares, unless the same consideration (other than the reimbursement of legal fees) is also offered to all of the Holders. This provision constitutes a separate right granted to each of the Holders by the Company and shall not in any way be construed as the Holders acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of securities or otherwise.
10. Negative Covenants. Until all of the Series A Preferred Shares have been converted, repurchased or otherwise satisfied in accordance with their terms, the Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, directly or indirectly:
(a) create (by reclassification or otherwise), or authorize the creation of, or issue or obligate itself to issue additional or other capital stock or securities exchangeable for or convertible or exercisable into capital stock that is Pari Passu Stock or ranks senior to the Series A Preferred Shares in respect of the preferences as to distributions, the payment of dividends and payments upon a Liquidation Event;
(b) increase or decrease the authorized number of directors constituting the Board, or, unless otherwise approved by at least one of the Preferred Directors (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), change the composition or charter of any committee of the Board if such change would alter, impair or impact the participation rights of any Preferred Directors; or

7


(c) agree or commit to do any of the foregoing.
11. Vote to Change the Terms of or Issue Series A Preferred Shares. In addition to any other rights provided by law, except where the vote or written consent of the holders of a greater number of shares is required by law or by another provision of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote at a meeting duly called for such purpose or the written consent without a meeting of the Required Holders, voting together as a single class, shall be required before the Company may: (a) amend, alter or repeal any provision of, or add any provision to, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, or file any articles of amendment, certificate of designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights of any series of preferred stock, if such action would adversely alter or change the preferences, rights, privileges or powers of, or restrictions provided for the benefit of the Series A Preferred Shares, regardless of whether any such action shall be by means of amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or by merger, consolidation or otherwise, other than to effect the Reverse Stock Split (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement); (b) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of Series A Preferred Shares; (c) amend or waive any provision of the Certificate of Designations with respect to the Series A Preferred Shares or (d) circumvent a right of the Series A Preferred Shares; provided, further, that any such amendment or waiver that complies with the foregoing but that disproportionately, materially and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any Holder relative to the comparable rights and obligations of the other Holders shall require the prior written consent of such adversely affected Holder. Any amendment or waiver to this Certificate of Designations made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 11 shall be binding on all Holders. No such amendment or waiver shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the Holders.
12. General Provisions.

16. Lost or Stolen Certificates. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Series A Preferred Stock Certificates representing the Series A Preferred Shares, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of an indemnification undertaking by such Holder to the Company in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Series A Preferred Stock Certificate(s), the Company shall execute and deliver new preferred stock certificate(s) of like tenor and date; provided, however, the Company shall not be obligated to re-issue preferred stock certificates if such Holder contemporaneously requests the Company to convert such Series A Preferred Shares into Common Stock.

The remedies provided in this Certificate of Designations shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Certificate of Designations, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Certificate of Designations. The Company covenants to each Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by such Holder thereof and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof).

In the event that the Company believes that a notice contains material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Company shall so indicate to the Holders contemporaneously with delivery of such notice, and in the absence of any such indication, the Holders shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries. For purposes of this Section 22, public disclosure of any information by a stockholder of the Company (including any filing pursuant to Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act) shall satisfy the requirement that such information be publicly disclosed by the Company.
