Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On April 4, 2011, Advaxis, Inc. (the “Company”), Optimus Capital Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, d/b/a Optimus Life Sciences Capital Partners, LLC (the “Investor”) and Optimus CG II, Ltd., an affiliate of the Investor (the “Holder”) entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement dated July 19, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and Investor.  Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Investor remains obligated, from time to time until July 19, 2013, to purchase up to an additional 284 shares of non-convertible, redeemable Series B Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price of $10,000 per share upon notice from the Company to the Investor, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
 
In order to satisfy certain conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement that would allow the Company to require the Investor to purchase the remaining shares of Series B Preferred Stock under the Purchase Agreement, the Amendment provides that, among other things, the Company will issue to the Holder a three-year warrant (the “Additional Warrant”) to purchase up to an additional 25,560,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, at an initial exercise price of $0.15 per share, subject to adjustment as described below.  The Additional Warrant will become exercisable on the earlier of (i) the date on which a registration statement registering for resale the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon exercise of the Additional Warrant (the “Warrant Shares”) becomes effective and (ii) the first date on which such Warrant Shares are eligible for resale without limitation under Rule 144 (assuming a cashless exercise of the Additional Warrant).  The Additional Warrant consists of and is exercisable in tranches, with a separate tranche being created upon each delivery of a tranche notice under the Purchase Agreement.  On each tranche notice date, that portion of the Additional Warrant equal to 135% of the tranche amount will vest and become exercisable, and such vested portion may be exercised at any time during the exercise period on or after such tranche notice date.  On and after the first tranche notice date and each subsequent tranche notice date, the exercise price of the Additional Warrant will be adjusted to the closing sale price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the applicable tranche notice date.  The exercise price of the Additional Warrant may be paid (at the option of the Investor) in cash or by the Investor’s issuance of a four-year, full-recourse promissory note (each, a “Promissory Note”), bearing interest at 2% per annum, and secured by specified portfolio of assets.  However, no Promissory Note will be due or payable at any time that (a) the Company is in default of any preferred stock purchase agreement for Series B Preferred Stock or any warrant issued pursuant thereto, any loan agreement or other material agreement or (b) there are any shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock issued or outstanding.  The Additional Warrant also provides for cashless exercise in certain circumstances. If a “Funding Default” (as such term is defined in the Additional Warrant) occurs and the Additional Warrant has not previously been exercised in full, the Company has the right to demand surrender of the Additional Warrant (or any remaining portion thereof) without compensation, and the Additional Warrant will automatically be cancelled.
 
On April 4, 2011, the Company and the Holder also entered into an Amended and Restated Security Agreement to ensure that any Promissory Note issued upon exercise of the Additional Warrant will be entitled to the benefits of the security and collateral provisions of the Security Agreement dated as of July 19, 2010.
 
The foregoing descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Additional Warrant and the appendices thereto (including, without limitation, the form of Secured Promissory Note), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, and the Amended and Restated Security Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
 
 
 

 
 
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
 
On April 4, 2011, the Company issued the Additional Warrant.  The information provided in Item 1.01 of this Current Report is incorporated in this Item 3.02 by reference in its entirety.
 
The Additional Warrant is being offered and sold to the Holder in a private placement transaction made in reliance upon an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Holder is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, as amended pursuant to the Amendment, with respect to the Warrant Shares, the securities described above have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue sky” laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent such registration or an applicable exemption therefrom. This Current Report shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Warrant To Purchase Common Stock

Warrant No.: 2011-1
Issuance Date:  April 4, 2011 
   
Number of Warrant Shares:  25,560,000
Initial Exercise Price:  $0.15 

Advaxis, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Optimus CG II, Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company, the holder hereof, or its designees or assigns (“Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times during the Exercise Period (as defined below), that number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock set forth above (the “Warrant Shares”); provided, however, that this Warrant may only be exercised, from time to time, for that number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by payment of an Aggregate Exercise Price (as defined below) equal to up to 135% of the cumulative amount of Tranche Purchase Prices under Tranche Notices delivered prior to or on the date of exercise.
 
This Warrant is issued pursuant to the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement dated July 19, 2010, by and among the Company and the investor referred to therein, as amended by the Amendment, dated as of April 4, 2011 (the “Purchase Agreement”).  Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in ARTICLE 13 hereof or, if not defined in such ARTICLE 13, in the Purchase Agreement.
 
This Warrant shall consist of and be exercisable in tranches (each, a “Warrant Tranche”), with a separate tranche being created upon each delivery of a Tranche Notice under the Purchase Agreement.  Each Warrant Tranche will grant to the Holder the right, during the Exercise Period, to exercise the Warrant and purchase up to a number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by payment of an Aggregate Exercise Price equal to 135% of the Tranche Purchase Price for the applicable Tranche Notice.  Attached to this Warrant is a schedule (the “Warrant Tranche Schedule”) that sets forth the issuance date, the number of Warrant Shares, and the Exercise Price for each Warrant Tranche.  The Warrant Tranche Schedule shall be updated by the Company, with an updated copy provided to the Holder, promptly following each exercise of this Warrant.  No portion of this Warrant shall vest or be exercisable except under the Warrant Tranches.

In no event shall the Company be permitted to deliver a Tranche Notice if the number of registered shares underlying this Warrant is insufficient to cover the portion of the Warrant that will vest and become exercisable in connection with such Tranche Notice.
 
ARTICLE 1
EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
 
1.1          Mechanics of Exercise.
 
(a)           On each Tranche Notice Date, that portion of the Warrant equal to 135% of the Tranche Amount shall vest and become exercisable, and such vested portion may be exercised at any time during the Exercise Period on or after such Tranche Notice Date.  Any portion of the Warrant that becomes exercisable in connection with the delivery of the Tranche Notice and is exercised by Holder in accordance with this Section 1.1 shall be deemed exercised (i) on the applicable Tranche Notice Date, if the Company receives the Exercise Delivery Documents from the Holder by 6:30 p.m. Eastern time on the Tranche Notice Date, or (ii) on the next Trading Day, if the Company receives the Exercise Delivery Documents from the Holder after 6:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the applicable Tranche Notice Date or on any subsequent date.
 
(b)           Subject to the terms and conditions hereof including without limitation clause (a) above, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day during the Exercise Period, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of a written notice to the Company, in the form attached hereto as Appendix 1 (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant and (ii) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds, by the issuance and delivery of a recourse promissory note substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix 2 (each, a “Recourse Note”), or, if applicable, by cashless exercise pursuant to Section 1.4.  The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder.  Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.

 
2

 

(c)           On the same Trading Day on which the Company has received each of the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price (the “Exercise Delivery Documents”) by 10:30 a.m. Eastern time, or the following Trading Day if received after such time or on a non-Trading Day, the Company shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) and (i) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (DTC) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (FAST) Program, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system, or (ii) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC FAST Program, issue and deliver to the Holder or, at the Holder’s instruction pursuant to the Exercise Notice, the Holder’s agent or designee, in each case, sent by reputable overnight courier to the address as specified in the applicable Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee (as indicated in the applicable Exercise Notice), for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise, which certificate shall not be imprinted with any restrictive legends and no stop transfer order shall be placed against the transfer thereof.  Upon delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificate(s) evidencing the Warrant Shares (as the case may be).
 
(d)           If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1.1 and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company, upon the request of the Holder, shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three Trading Days after any exercise and return of the previously issued Warrant, at its own expense issue a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant.
 
1.2           Exercise Price.  For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means, subject to adjustment as provided herein: (i) until the first Tranche Notice Date after the Issuance Date, $0.15 per Warrant Share as set forth on the face of this Warrant, and (ii) on and after the first Tranche Notice Date after the Issuance Date and each subsequent Tranche Notice Date, an amount per Warrant Share equal to the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the applicable Tranche Notice Date.
 
1.3           Number of Shares.  The number of Warrant Shares underlying this Warrant and each Warrant Tranche, subject to further adjustment as provided under Article 2 herein, shall be, with respect to the portion of this Warrant that becomes exercisable on any Tranche Notice Date including the first Tranche Notice Date, a number of shares equal to the Tranche Purchase Price set forth in the applicable Tranche Notice multiplied by 135%, with the resulting sum divided by the Closing Bid Price of a share of Common Stock on the Tranche Notice Date.  For example, if the Tranche Purchase Price is $1,000,000 and the Closing Bid Price is $0.20, then the number of Warrant Shares underlying that Warrant Tranche shall be $1,000,000 x 135% = $1,350,000 divided by $0.20 = 6,750,000 shares of Common Stock.  (In the foregoing example, following issuance of 6,750,000 Warrant Shares, the number of shares underlying this Warrant would be decreased by such 6,750,000 shares.)  On each Tranche Notice Date, the number of Warrant Shares underlying the related Warrant Tranche shall vest and become exercisable, and the aggregate number of Warrant Shares underlying this Warrant that are currently exercisable shall automatically adjust up or down to account for the change in the number of Warrant Shares covered by the new Warrant Tranche and for any Warrant Shares issued upon any prior or simultaneous exercise of this Warrant.

1.4           Cashless Exercise.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (other than Sections 1.1(a) and 1.1(c) above and 1.6 below), if at any time a registration statement is not effective (or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use) for the resale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the “Unavailable Warrant Shares”), the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):

Net Number = (B-C) x A
                                B

For purposes of the foregoing formula:
 
A = the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.
 
B = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the shares of Common Stock (as reported by Bloomberg) for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days ending on the date immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.
 
C = the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.
 
1.5           Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities.  If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to timely issue to the Holder or its designee a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled and register such Warrant Shares on the Company’s share register or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for such number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant (as the case may be), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day that the issuance of such Warrant Shares is not timely effected an amount equal to 1.5% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of Warrant Shares not issued to the Holder on a timely basis and to which the Holder is entitled and (B) the Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the last possible date which the Company could have issued such Warrant Shares to the Holder without violating Section 1.1.  In addition to the foregoing, if after the Company’s receipt of the applicable Exercise Delivery Documents the Company shall fail to timely issue to the Holder or its designee a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled and register such Warrant Shares on the Company’s share register or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be), and the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three Trading Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and to issue such Warrant Shares shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder or its designee a certificate or certificates representing such Warrant Shares or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock sold by Holder in satisfaction of its obligations, times (B) the Closing Bid Price on the date of exercise.

 
4

 
 
1.6           Exercise Limitation.  Notwithstanding any other provision, at no time may the Holder exercise this Warrant such that the number of Warrant Shares to be received pursuant to such exercise aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then owned by the Holder beneficially or deemed beneficially owned by the Holder would result in the Holder owning more than 9.99% of all of such Common Stock as would be outstanding on such Exercise Date, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  In addition, as of any date, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock into which this Warrant is exercisable within 61 days, together with all other shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned (as such term is defined in Rule 13(d) under the Exchange Act) by Holder and its affiliates, shall not exceed 9.99% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock as of such date.  At no time when the number of Warrant Shares then owned by the Holder, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then owned by the Holder beneficially or deemed beneficially owned by the Holder, would result in the Holder owning more than 1.0% of all outstanding Common Stock will Holder vote or cause to be voted any such shares.
 
1.7           Restrictions.  For so long as Holder holds this Warrant or any Warrant Shares, Holder will not:  (i) vote any shares of Common Stock owned or controlled by it, solicit any proxies, or seek to advise or influence any Person with respect to any voting securities of the Company; (ii) engage or participate in any actions, plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (a) acquiring additional securities of the Company, alone or together with any other Person, which would result in beneficially owning or controlling, or being deemed to beneficially own or control, more than 9.99% of the total outstanding Common Stock or other voting securities of the Company, (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving Company or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board, (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company, (f) any other material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure, including but not limited to, if the Company is a registered closed-end investment company, any plans or proposals to make any changes in its investment policy for which a vote is required by Section 13 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, (g) changes in the Company’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any Person, (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (i) a class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant  to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act, or (j) any action, intention, plan or arrangement similar to any of those enumerated above; or (iii) request the Company or its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives to amend or waive any provision of this Section 1.7.

 
5

 
 
1.8           Disputes.  In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 12.
 
1.9           Insufficient Authorized Shares.  If at any time while this Warrant (or any portion thereof) remains 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 exercise of this Warrant at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 110% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise in full of any unexercised portion of this Warrant (the “Required Reserve Amount”) (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall immediately take all 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 unexercised portion of the Warrant then outstanding.  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 90 days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to 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 commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal.
 
1.10         Termination of Warrant.  In the event that the sum of the aggregate Tranche Purchase Price for all Tranche Shares reaches the Maximum Placement under the Stock Purchase Agreement, any portion of this Warrant that remains unvested on such Termination Date shall automatically be cancelled with no further action of the Company or the Holder effective as of such Termination Date.

ARTICLE 2
ADJUSTMENT 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 Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased.  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 Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased.  Any adjustment under this ARTICLE 2 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
 
ARTICLE 3
PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS
 
3.1           Purchase Rights.  In addition to any adjustments pursuant to ARTICLE 2 above, 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 shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) 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 shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.
 
3.2           Fundamental Transactions.  The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2 pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders and approved by the Required Holders prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each holder of Warrants in exchange for such Warrants a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, including, without limitation, an adjusted exercise price equal to the value for the shares of Common Stock reflected by the terms of such Fundamental Transaction, and exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and satisfactory to the Required Holders.  Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.  Upon consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Required Holders confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Required Holders would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.  In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Required Holders will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Required Holders would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.  Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders.  The provisions of this Section 3.2  shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant.

2.           Interest.  The principal balance outstanding, from time to time, shall bear interest from and after the date hereof at the rate of 2.0% per year.  Interest shall be calculated on a simple interest basis and the number of days elapsed during the period for which interest is being calculated.  Interest not paid when due shall be added to the principal.
 
3.           Payments.  If not sooner paid, the entire unpaid principal balance, interest thereon and any other charges due and payable under this Note shall be due and payable on the fourth anniversary of the date of this Note (“Maturity Date”); provided, however, that in no event shall this Note be due or payable at any time that (a) Lender is in default of any preferred stock purchase agreement for Series B Preferred Stock or any Warrant issued pursuant thereto, or any loan agreement or other material agreement, or (b) there are any shares of Series B Preferred Stock of Lender issued or outstanding.  Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or any part of the principal balance of this Note at any time without penalty or premium.  In the event that Lender redeems all or a portion of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock then held by Borrower, Borrower shall apply, and Lender may offset, the proceeds of any such redemption to pay down the accrued interest and outstanding principal of this Note.  All payments shall be first be applied to interest, then to reduce the outstanding principal.
 
4.           Full Recourse Note.  THIS IS A FULL RECOURSE PROMISSORY NOTE.  Accordingly, notwithstanding that Borrower’s obligations under this Note are secured by the Note Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement), in the event of a material Default (as defined below) hereunder, Lender shall have full recourse to all the other assets of Borrower.  Moreover, Lender shall not be required to proceed against or exhaust any Note Collateral, or to pursue any Note Collateral in any particular order, before Lender pursues any other remedies against Borrower or against any of Borrower’s assets.

6.           Default Rights.
 
a.          Upon the occurrence of any payment Default Lender may, at its election, declare the entire balance of principal and interest under this Note immediately due and payable.  A delay by Lender in exercising any right of acceleration after a Default shall not constitute a waiver of the Default or the right of acceleration or any other right or remedy for such Default.  The failure by Lender to exercise any right of acceleration as a result of a Default shall not constitute a waiver of the right of acceleration or any other right or remedy with respect to any other Default, whenever occurring.
 
b.          Further, upon the occurrence of any material non-monetary Default, following 30 days notice from Lender to Borrower specifying the Default and demanded manner of cure for such non-monetary Default, Lender shall thereupon and thereafter have any and all of the rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled after a Default under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code, as then in effect.  In addition to its other rights and remedies, Borrower agrees that upon the occurrence of a Default, Lender may take any and all actions with respect to the Note Collateral as permitted under the Security Agreement.
 
c.          The rights, privileges, powers and remedies of Lender shall be cumulative, and no single or partial exercise of any of them shall preclude the further or other exercise of any of them.  Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind by Lender of any Default hereunder, or any such waiver of any provisions or conditions hereof, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in writing.
 
7.           Security.  This Note is secured to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Security Agreement.
 
8.           Additional Terms.
 
a.          No Waiver.  The acceptance by Lender of payment of a portion of any installment when due or an entire installment but after it is due shall neither cure nor excuse the Default caused by the failure of Borrower timely to pay the whole of such installment and shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to require full payment when due of any future or succeeding installments.

 
2

WHEREAS, in connection with the amendment and restatement of the Initial Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Additional Purchase Agreement, Borrower and Lender entered into a Security Agreement, dated as of July 19, 2010 (the “Security Agreement”), which amended and restated the grant of security interests in favor of Lender by Borrower provided in the Initial Notes and, upon issuance of the Additional Notes and the Tranche Closing Note, further granted security interests with respect to such Additional Notes and Tranche Closing Note in favor of Lender, in each case as therein provided;
 
WHEREAS, in connection with the issuance of the New Warrants in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Additional Purchase Agreement as amended by the Amendment, Borrower must execute and deliver to Lender a security agreement in substantially the form hereof; and
 
WHEREAS, this Agreement amends and restates the grant of security interests in favor of Lender by Borrower provided in the Security Agreement and, upon issuance of any New Notes, further grants security interests with respect to such New Notes in favor of Lender, in each case as herein provided.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
 
1.           Grant of Security Interest.  Borrower hereby amends and restates the grant of security interests provided in the Security Agreement as provided herein.  Borrower hereby grants to Lender, to secure the payment and performance in full of any indebtedness arising pursuant to the Notes outstanding from time to time (the “Obligations”), a security interest in and so pledges all of Borrower’s right, title, and interest in and to all of the following (subject to Sections 2 and 3 below), now owned or hereafter acquired or arising (together the “Collateral” and, with respect to the portion of the Collateral that secures any given Note, the “Note Collateral”):
 
(a)           Publicly traded or otherwise free-trading shares of common stock, preferred stock, bonds, notes and/or debentures (collectively, “Pledged Securities”) with a fair market value both on the date hereof and on the date of issuance of each Note at least equal to the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, based upon the trading price of such securities on (i) the Pink Sheets, the OTCQB Marketplace or the OTC Bulletin Board, if applicable or (ii) otherwise, the fair market value of such Pledged Securities as reasonably set forth on the books and records of Borrower;
 
(b)           all rights of Borrower with respect to or arising out of the Pledged Securities, including voting rights, and all equity and debt securities and other property distributed or distributable with respect thereto as a result of merger, consolidation, dissolution, reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, exchange, redemption, or other change in capital structure; and
 
(c)           all proceeds, replacements, substitutions, accessions and increases in any of the Collateral.

 
-2-

 
 
2.           Margin Regulations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Pledged Securities or other Collateral shall consist of “Margin Stock” (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States).
 
3.           Replacement Securities.  So long as any Obligations remain outstanding, in the event that Borrower sells or disposes of any Pledged Securities or to the extent any securities or other assets that were Collateral hereunder cease to be Collateral pursuant to Section 2 above, Borrower shall promptly provide replacement securities of equal or greater fair market value.
 
4.           Rights With Respect to Distributions.  So long as no Default (as defined in Section 9 below) shall have occurred and be continuing under any given Note, Borrower shall be entitled to receive any and all dividends and distributions made with respect to the Pledged Securities and any other Note Collateral.  However, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any such Default, Lender shall have the sole right (unless otherwise agreed by Lender) to receive and retain dividends and distributions and apply them to the outstanding balance of the Note under which the Default has occurred or hold them as Note Collateral, at Lender’s election.
 
5.           Voting Rights.  So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing under any given Note, Borrower shall be entitled to exercise all voting rights pertaining to the Pledged Securities and any other Note Collateral.  However, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, all rights of Borrower to exercise the voting rights that Borrower would otherwise be entitled to exercise with respect to the Note Collateral shall cease and (unless otherwise agreed by Lender) all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Lender, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such rights.
 
6.           Financing Statement; Further Assurances.  Borrower agrees, concurrently with executing this Agreement, that Lender may file a UCC-1 financing statement relating to the Note Collateral in favor of Lender, and any similar financing statements in any jurisdiction in which Lender reasonably determines such filing to be necessary.  Borrower further agrees that after any Default, provided that such Default remains uncured for at least a period of twenty calendar days after Borrower’s receipt of written notice of such Default from Lender, and at any time and from time to time thereafter until such Default has been cured, Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents that Lender may request in order to perfect and protect the security interest granted hereby, or to enable Lender to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies with respect to any Note Collateral, including, without limitation, requiring delivery of the Note Collateral to Lender to hold as secured party.

 
-3-

 

7.           Powers of Lender.  Borrower hereby appoints Lender as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact to perform any and all of the following acts, which power is coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Obligations are paid and performed in full, and may be exercised from time to time by Lender in its discretion:  To take any action and to execute any instrument which Lender may deem reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 7 and, more broadly, this Agreement including, without limitation:  (i) to exercise voting and consent rights with respect to Note Collateral in accordance with this Agreement, (ii) during the continuance of any Default, to receive, endorse and collect all instruments or other forms of payment made payable to Borrower in respect of the Note Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same, (iii) to perform or cause the performance of any obligation of Borrower hereunder in Borrower’s name or otherwise, (iv) during the continuance of any Default, to liquidate any Note Collateral pledged to Lender hereunder and to apply proceeds thereof to the payment of the Obligations or to place such proceeds into a cash collateral account or to transfer the Note Collateral into the name of Lender, all at Lender’s sole discretion, (v)  to enter into any extension, reorganization or other agreement relating to or affecting the Note Collateral, and, in connection therewith, to deposit or surrender control of the Note Collateral, (vi) to accept other property in exchange for the Note Collateral, (vii) to make any compromise or settlement Lender deems desirable or proper, and (viii) to execute on Borrower’s behalf and in Borrower’s name any documents required in order to give Lender a continuing first lien upon the Note Collateral or any part thereof.
 
8.           No Waiver.  The acceptance by Lender of payment of a portion of any installment when due or an entire installment but after it is due shall neither cure nor excuse the Default caused by the failure of Borrower timely to pay the whole of such installment and shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to require full payment when due of any future or succeeding installments.
 
9.           Default. Any one or more of the following shall constitute a default under any Note (each, a “Default”): (i) a default in the payment when due of any amount under such Note, (ii) Borrower’s refusal to perform any material term, provision or covenant under such Note, (iii) the commencement of any liquidation, receivership, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other debtor-relief proceeding by or against Borrower, or subject to Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement, the Note Collateral is transferred by Borrower without being replaced by Pledged Securities of equal or greater fair market value on the date of transfer, and (iv) the levying of any attachment, execution or other process against Borrower, or, subject to Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement, the Note Collateral or any material portion thereof.
 
10.         Default Rights.
 
(a)           Upon the occurrence of any material non-monetary Default, following 30 days notice from Lender to Borrower specifying the Default and demanded manner of cure for such non-monetary Default, Lender shall thereupon and thereafter have any and all of the rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled after a Default under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code, as then in effect.
 
(b)           In addition to its other rights and remedies, Borrower agrees that, upon the occurrence of any Default under any given Note, Lender may in its sole discretion do or cause to be done any one or more of the following:
 
 
(i)
Proceed to realize upon the Note Collateral or any portion thereof as provided by law, and without liability for any diminution in price which may have occurred, sell the Note Collateral or any part thereof, in such manner, whether at any public or private sale, and whether in one lot as an entirety, or in separate portions, and for such price and other terms and conditions as is commercially reasonable given the nature of the Note Collateral.

 
-4-

 
 
 
(ii)
If notice to Borrower is required, give written notice to Borrower at least ten days before the date of sale of the Note Collateral or any portion thereof.
 
 
(iii)
Transfer all or any part of the Note Collateral into Lender’s name or in the name of its nominee or nominees.
 
 
(iv)
Vote all or any part of the Note Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of Lender) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Note Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto, as though Lender were the outright owner thereof.
 
(c)           Borrower acknowledges that all or part of foreclosure of the Note Collateral may be restricted by state or federal securities laws, Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of all or part of the Note Collateral, that a public sale is or may be impractical and inappropriate and that, in the event of such restrictions, Lender thus may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire the Note Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to its distribution or resale.  Borrower agrees that if reasonably necessary Lender may resort to one or more sales to a single purchaser or a restricted or limited group of purchasers.  Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition, unless the terms thereof shall be satisfactory to it.
 
(d)           If, in the opinion of Lender based upon written advice of counsel, any consent, approval or authorization of any federal, state or other governmental agency or authority should be necessary to effectuate any sale or other disposition of any Note Collateral, Borrower shall execute all such applications and other instruments as may reasonably be required in connection with securing any such consent, approval or authorization, and will otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure the same.
 
(e)           The rights, privileges, powers and remedies of Lender shall be cumulative, and no single or partial exercise of any of them shall preclude the further or other exercise of any of them.  Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind by Lender of any Default hereunder, or any such waiver of any provisions or conditions hereof, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in writing.  Any proceeds of any disposition of the Note Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Lender to the payment of expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the foregoing, and the balance of such proceeds shall be applied by Lender toward the payment of the Obligations.
 
11.          Attorney Fees.  The prevailing party in any action by Lender to collect any amounts due under this Agreement and/or the Notes shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys fees and costs.

 
-5-

 

12.          Entire Agreement, Amendments; Etc.  THIS AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE NOTES, THE WARRANTS AND THE PURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS (AS DEFINED IN THE PURCHASE AGREEMENTS), REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES SOLELY WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.  THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by Borrower herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given, provided that any party may give a waiver in writing as to itself. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by both Borrower and Lender.

Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

WHEREAS, to the extent elected by Borrower, in its sole discretion, Lender has agreed to accept one or more secured promissory notes, in the form attached as Appendix 2 to the New Warrants (collectively, the “New Notes”, and together with the Initial Notes, the Tranche Closing Note and the Additional Notes, the “Notes”) in lieu of the cash payment of the exercise price of any of the New Warrants;
 
WHEREAS, in connection with the amendment and restatement of the Initial Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Additional Purchase Agreement, Borrower and Lender entered into a Security Agreement, dated as of July 19, 2010 (the “Security Agreement”), which amended and restated the grant of security interests in favor of Lender by Borrower provided in the Initial Notes and, upon issuance of the Additional Notes and the Tranche Closing Note, further granted security interests with respect to such Additional Notes and Tranche Closing Note in favor of Lender, in each case as therein provided;
 
 
 

 
 
WHEREAS, in connection with the issuance of the New Warrants in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Additional Purchase Agreement as amended by the Amendment, Borrower must execute and deliver to Lender a security agreement in substantially the form hereof; and
 
WHEREAS, this Agreement amends and restates the grant of security interests in favor of Lender by Borrower provided in the Security Agreement and, upon issuance of any New Notes, further grants security interests with respect to such New Notes in favor of Lender, in each case as herein provided.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
 
1.           Grant of Security Interest.  Borrower hereby amends and restates the grant of security interests provided in the Security Agreement as provided herein.  Borrower hereby grants to Lender, to secure the payment and performance in full of any indebtedness arising pursuant to the Notes outstanding from time to time (the “Obligations”), a security interest in and so pledges all of Borrower’s right, title, and interest in and to all of the following (subject to Sections 2 and 3 below), now owned or hereafter acquired or arising (together the “Collateral” and, with respect to the portion of the Collateral that secures any given Note, the “Note Collateral”):
 
(a)           Publicly traded or otherwise free-trading shares of common stock, preferred stock, bonds, notes and/or debentures (collectively, “Pledged Securities”) with a fair market value both on the date hereof and on the date of issuance of each Note at least equal to the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, based upon the trading price of such securities on (i) the Pink Sheets, the OTCQB Marketplace or the OTC Bulletin Board, if applicable or (ii) otherwise, the fair market value of such Pledged Securities as reasonably set forth on the books and records of Borrower;
 
(b)           all rights of Borrower with respect to or arising out of the Pledged Securities, including voting rights, and all equity and debt securities and other property distributed or distributable with respect thereto as a result of merger, consolidation, dissolution, reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, exchange, redemption, or other change in capital structure; and
 
(c)           all proceeds, replacements, substitutions, accessions and increases in any of the Collateral.
 
2.           Margin Regulations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Pledged Securities or other Collateral shall consist of “Margin Stock” (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States).
 
 
-2-

 
 
3.           Replacement Securities.  So long as any Obligations remain outstanding, in the event that Borrower sells or disposes of any Pledged Securities or to the extent any securities or other assets that were Collateral hereunder cease to be Collateral pursuant to Section 2 above, Borrower shall promptly provide replacement securities of equal or greater fair market value.
 
4.           Rights With Respect to Distributions.  So long as no Default (as defined in Section 9 below) shall have occurred and be continuing under any given Note, Borrower shall be entitled to receive any and all dividends and distributions made with respect to the Pledged Securities and any other Note Collateral.  However, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any such Default, Lender shall have the sole right (unless otherwise agreed by Lender) to receive and retain dividends and distributions and apply them to the outstanding balance of the Note under which the Default has occurred or hold them as Note Collateral, at Lender’s election.
 
5.           Voting Rights.  So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing under any given Note, Borrower shall be entitled to exercise all voting rights pertaining to the Pledged Securities and any other Note Collateral.  However, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, all rights of Borrower to exercise the voting rights that Borrower would otherwise be entitled to exercise with respect to the Note Collateral shall cease and (unless otherwise agreed by Lender) all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Lender, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such rights.
 
6.           Financing Statement; Further Assurances.  Borrower agrees, concurrently with executing this Agreement, that Lender may file a UCC-1 financing statement relating to the Note Collateral in favor of Lender, and any similar financing statements in any jurisdiction in which Lender reasonably determines such filing to be necessary.  Borrower further agrees that after any Default, provided that such Default remains uncured for at least a period of twenty calendar days after Borrower’s receipt of written notice of such Default from Lender, and at any time and from time to time thereafter until such Default has been cured, Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents that Lender may request in order to perfect and protect the security interest granted hereby, or to enable Lender to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies with respect to any Note Collateral, including, without limitation, requiring delivery of the Note Collateral to Lender to hold as secured party.
 
7.           Powers of Lender.  Borrower hereby appoints Lender as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact to perform any and all of the following acts, which power is coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Obligations are paid and performed in full, and may be exercised from time to time by Lender in its discretion:  To take any action and to execute any instrument which Lender may deem reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 7 and, more broadly, this Agreement including, without limitation:  (i) to exercise voting and consent rights with respect to Note Collateral in accordance with this Agreement, (ii) during the continuance of any Default, to receive, endorse and collect all instruments or other forms of payment made payable to Borrower in respect of the Note Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same, (iii) to perform or cause the performance of any obligation of Borrower hereunder in Borrower’s name or otherwise, (iv) during the continuance of any Default, to liquidate any Note Collateral pledged to Lender hereunder and to apply proceeds thereof to the payment of the Obligations or to place such proceeds into a cash collateral account or to transfer the Note Collateral into the name of Lender, all at Lender’s sole discretion, (v)  to enter into any extension, reorganization or other agreement relating to or affecting the Note Collateral, and, in connection therewith, to deposit or surrender control of the Note Collateral, (vi) to accept other property in exchange for the Note Collateral, (vii) to make any compromise or settlement Lender deems desirable or proper, and (viii) to execute on Borrower’s behalf and in Borrower’s name any documents required in order to give Lender a continuing first lien upon the Note Collateral or any part thereof.
 
 
-3-

 
 
8.           No Waiver.  The acceptance by Lender of payment of a portion of any installment when due or an entire installment but after it is due shall neither cure nor excuse the Default caused by the failure of Borrower timely to pay the whole of such installment and shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to require full payment when due of any future or succeeding installments.
 
9.           Default.  Any one or more of the following shall constitute a default under any Note (each, a “Default”):  (i) a default in the payment when due of any amount under such Note, (ii) Borrower’s refusal to perform any material term, provision or covenant under such Note, (iii) the commencement of any liquidation, receivership, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other debtor-relief proceeding by or against Borrower, or subject to Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement, the Note Collateral is transferred by Borrower without being replaced by Pledged Securities of equal or greater fair market value on the date of transfer, and (iv) the levying of any attachment, execution or other process against Borrower, or, subject to Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement, the Note Collateral or any material portion thereof.
 
10.         Default Rights.
 
(a)           Upon the occurrence of any material non-monetary Default, following 30 days notice from Lender to Borrower specifying the Default and demanded manner of cure for such non-monetary Default, Lender shall thereupon and thereafter have any and all of the rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled after a Default under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code, as then in effect.
 
(b)           In addition to its other rights and remedies, Borrower agrees that, upon the occurrence of any Default under any given Note, Lender may in its sole discretion do or cause to be done any one or more of the following:
 
 
(i)
Proceed to realize upon the Note Collateral or any portion thereof as provided by law, and without liability for any diminution in price which may have occurred, sell the Note Collateral or any part thereof, in such manner, whether at any public or private sale, and whether in one lot as an entirety, or in separate portions, and for such price and other terms and conditions as is commercially reasonable given the nature of the Note Collateral.
 
 
(ii)
If notice to Borrower is required, give written notice to Borrower at least ten days before the date of sale of the Note Collateral or any portion thereof.
 
 
-4-

 
 
 
(iii)
Transfer all or any part of the Note Collateral into Lender’s name or in the name of its nominee or nominees.
 
 
(iv)
Vote all or any part of the Note Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of Lender) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Note Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto, as though Lender were the outright owner thereof.
 
(c)           Borrower acknowledges that all or part of foreclosure of the Note Collateral may be restricted by state or federal securities laws, Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of all or part of the Note Collateral, that a public sale is or may be impractical and inappropriate and that, in the event of such restrictions, Lender thus may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire the Note Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to its distribution or resale.  Borrower agrees that if reasonably necessary Lender may resort to one or more sales to a single purchaser or a restricted or limited group of purchasers.  Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition, unless the terms thereof shall be satisfactory to it.
 
(d)           If, in the opinion of Lender based upon written advice of counsel, any consent, approval or authorization of any federal, state or other governmental agency or authority should be necessary to effectuate any sale or other disposition of any Note Collateral, Borrower shall execute all such applications and other instruments as may reasonably be required in connection with securing any such consent, approval or authorization, and will otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure the same.
 
(e)           The rights, privileges, powers and remedies of Lender shall be cumulative, and no single or partial exercise of any of them shall preclude the further or other exercise of any of them.  Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind by Lender of any Default hereunder, or any such waiver of any provisions or conditions hereof, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in writing.  Any proceeds of any disposition of the Note Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Lender to the payment of expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the foregoing, and the balance of such proceeds shall be applied by Lender toward the payment of the Obligations.
 
11.         Attorney Fees.  The prevailing party in any action by Lender to collect any amounts due under this Agreement and/or the Notes shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys fees and costs.
 
12.         Entire Agreement, Amendments; Etc.  THIS AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE NOTES, THE WARRANTS AND THE PURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS (AS DEFINED IN THE PURCHASE AGREEMENTS), REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES SOLELY WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.  THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by Borrower herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given, provided that any party may give a waiver in writing as to itself. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by both Borrower and Lender.

13.         Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Jury Trial.  All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

15.         Termination Date.  This Agreement shall automatically terminate on the later of the date that (i) is three years after the Effective Date of the Additional Purchase Agreement and (ii) no Notes remain outstanding (the “Termination Date”).  Lender agrees that from and after the Termination Date, Lender will, from time to time, at the expense and at the request of Borrower, promptly following any such request of Borrower: (i) deliver to Borrower such termination statements, releases, assignments or other agreements or instruments, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Borrower, as Borrower may reasonably request to evidence the termination of this Agreement, the payment or other satisfaction in full of all the Obligations and to evidence, effect or confirm the release and termination of any and all security interests and other liens created hereunder or pursuant to the Notes or otherwise securing the Obligations, and (ii) deliver any Collateral held by Lender to Borrower or, as applicable, instruct the relevant custodian to deliver such Collateral to the Borrower.  Except as provided in Sections 12 through 16, which shall survive the Termination Date, from and after the Termination Date, this Agreement shall be null and void and of no further force and effect.

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.
