Emerson Equity LLC

155 Bovet Road, Suite 725

San Mateo, CA 94402

Re:           SPO Medical Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Placement Agency Agreement (this “Agreement”) sets forth terms upon which Emerson Equity LLC, a registered broker-dealer and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) (together with its selected dealers, the “Placement Agent”), shall be engaged by SPO Medical Inc. (the “Company”) to act as lead placement agent in connection with the private placement (the “Offering”) on a “reasonable efforts basis” of up to seventeen (17) units ($510,000) (“Units”) (the “Maximum Offering”), each Unit consisting of (i) 200,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock” or the “Shares”) and (ii) three-year Common Stock Purchase Warrants (“Investor Warrants”) to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of $0.25 per share.  The Company and the Placement Agent (by mutual agreement) reserve the right to increase the Maximum Offering by an additional seventeen (17) Units ($510,000) (“Overallotment”).

Subscriptions for the Units will be accepted by the Company at a price of $30,000 per Unit (the “Offering Price”), with a minimum investment of one Unit; provided, however, that subscriptions in lesser amounts may be accepted in the Company’s and Placement Agent’s discretion.  The Placement Agent shall not tender to the Company subscriptions for any persons or entities who do not qualify as “accredited investors,” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D as promulgated under Section 4(2) (“Regulation D”) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).  The Units will be offered commencing on the issue date of the Memorandum (as defined below) until September 7, 2010 (the “Initial Offering Period”), which period may be extended by the Company and the Placement Agent until up to November 9, 2010 (this additional period and the Initial Offering Period shall be referred to as the “Offering Period”).  The date on which the Offering shall terminate shall be referred to as the “Termination Date.”

With respect to the Offering, the Company shall provide the Placement Agent, on the terms set forth herein, the exclusive right to offer and sell all of the Units being offered.  Each of the Placement Agent and the Company may, in its sole reasonable discretion, accept or reject in whole or in part any prospective investment in the Units or allot to any prospective subscriber less than the number of Units that such subscriber desires to purchase.

The Offering will be made by the Company solely pursuant to the Memorandum (as hereinafter defined), which at all times will be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Placement Agent, the Company and their respective counsel and contain such legends and other information as such parties and their respective counsel may, from time to time, deem necessary and desirable to be set forth therein.  “Memorandum” as used in this Agreement means the Company’s Confidential Private Placement Memorandum dated July 9, 2010, inclusive of all annexes, and all amendments, supplements and appendices thereto and all documents incorporated therein by reference.

1.             Appointment of Placement Agent.

(a)           On the basis of the representations and warranties provided herein, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Placement Agent is appointed as exclusive Placement Agent of the Company during the Offering Period to assist the Company in finding qualified subscribers for the Offering.  On the basis of such representations and warranties and subject to such terms and conditions, the Placement Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform its services hereunder in a professional and businesslike manner and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Company in finding subscribers of Units who qualify as “accredited investors,” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D and to complete the Offering.  The Placement Agent has no obligation to purchase any of the Units.  Unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement, the engagement of the Placement Agent hereunder shall continue until the later of the Termination Date or the last Closing (as defined below).  Prior to the Termination Date, the Company shall not engage any other party to act as placement agent of any type of security (either debt or equity).  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the event that closings for in excess of $250,000 are not consummated on or before August 20, 2010, the engagement of the Placement Agent will, at the Company’s option upon written notice to the Placement Agent, become a non-exclusive engagement and, in such event the Company will revise the Memorandum (provided such revised Memorandum is provided to the Placement Agent so that it has an opportunity to comment on such revisions) to reflect the non-exclusivity of Emerson as placement agent.

(b)           The Placement Agent shall not contact any potential investors regarding the offering of the Units unless the following procedures are complied with. The Placement Agent has furnished the Company with a list of potential investors, as may be supplemented from time to time (hereinafter the "Potential Investor List") that it may solicit with respect to the Offering.  The Potential Investor List is annexed hereto as Exhibit A and has been approved by the Company.  To the extent the Placement Agent desires to add names to the list, it will provide notice via email to the Company.  The Company shall have two business days from such e-mail delivery to object to any person or entity on the Potential Investor List, citing the reason for such objection. The failure of the Company to timely object shall be deemed to represent its consent to the approach of such person.

2.            Representations and Warranties.

Except as otherwise disclosed in the SEC Documents (as defined below) or in the Memorandum, the following representations and warranties of the Company are true and correct as of the date of this Agreement:

(c)           None of the execution and delivery of, or performance by the Company under the Transaction Documents, will conflict with or violate, or will result in the creation or imposition of, any lien, charge or other encumbrance upon any of the assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under any agreement or other instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which either the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective assets may be bound, or any term of the charter or by-laws of the Company, or any license, permit, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective assets.

(c)           If all of the conditions set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are fulfilled, the initial Closing shall be held in accordance with the terms of the Memorandum with respect to the Units sold.  Thereafter, additional closings may be held until either (i) all of the Units are sold or (ii) the Termination Date, with the final closing (the “Final Closing” and each closing of the purchase and sale of Units is referred to in this Agreement as a “Closing”) to occur within 10 days from the earlier of the Termination Date or the sale of all Units offered.  Delivery of payment for the accepted subscriptions for Units from the funds held in the Escrow Account will be made at each Closing at the Placement Agent’s offices against delivery of the securities comprising the Units by the Company at the address set forth in Section 14 hereof (or at such other place as may be mutually agreed upon between the Company and the Placement Agent), net of amounts due to the Placement Agent and its counsel as of such Closing.  Executed instruments/certificates for the Units and the Agent’s Warrants will be in such authorized denominations and registered in such names as the Placement Agent may request on or before the date of each Closing (“Closing Date”), and will be made available to the Placement Agent for checking and packaging at the Placement Agent’s office at each Closing.

(d)           If subscriptions for Units have not been received and accepted by the Company on or before the expiration of the Offering Period for any reason, the Offering will be terminated, no Units will be sold, and the Escrow Agent will, at the request of the Placement Agent, cause all monies received from subscribers for the Units to be promptly returned to such subscribers without interest, penalty, expense or deduction.

5.           Further Covenants.  The Company hereby covenants and agrees that:

(a)           Except upon prior written notice to the Placement Agent, the Company shall not, at any time prior to the Closing, knowingly take any action which would reasonably be expected to cause any of the representations and warranties made by it in this Agreement not to be complete and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing date with the same force and effect as if such representations and warranties had been made on and as of each such date.

(b)            If, at any time prior to the Final Closing (i) any event shall occur which does or may materially affect the Company or as a result of which it might become necessary to amend or supplement the Memorandum so that the representations, warranties and covenants herein remain true, or (ii) in case it shall, in the opinion of counsel to the Placement Agent and the Company, be necessary to amend or supplement the Memorandum to comply with Regulation D or any other applicable securities laws or regulations, the Company shall, in the case of (i) above, promptly notify the Placement Agent and, in the event of either (i) or (ii) above shall, at its sole cost, prepare and furnish to the Placement Agent copies of appropriate amendments and/or supplements to the Memorandum in such quantities as the Placement Agent may request.  The Company shall not at any time, whether before or after the Final Closing, prepare or use any amendment or supplement to the Memorandum of which the Placement Agent shall not previously have been advised and furnished with a copy, or to which the Placement Agent or its counsel will have reasonably objected in writing or orally (confirmed in writing within 24 hours), or which is not in compliance with the Act, the regulations thereunder and other applicable securities laws. As soon as the Company is advised thereof, the Company shall advise the Placement Agent and its counsel, and confirm the advice in writing, of any order preventing or suspending the use of the Memorandum, or the suspension of the qualification or registration of the Units or the Securities for offering or the suspension of any exemption for such qualification or registration of the Units or the Securities for offering in any jurisdiction, or of the institution or threatened institution of any proceedings for any of such purposes, and the Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order and, if issued, to obtain as soon as reasonably possible the lifting thereof.

(c)            The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist counsel to the Placement Agent in qualifying the Units for sale under the securities laws of such U.S. jurisdictions as may be mutually agreed to by the Company and the Placement Agent; provided, that the Company will not be required or obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Units.  Furthermore, the Company shall file a copy of a Notice of Sale on Form D with the SEC within the prescribed time period and shall file all amendments with the SEC as may be required.  Copies of the Form D and all amendments thereto shall be provided to the Placement Agent.  The Company or its counsel will provide counsel for the Placement Agent with copies of all correspondence or other documentation filed with or received from any jurisdiction where the Units are to be registered or qualified or offered.  The Company will promptly provide to the Placement Agent for delivery to all offerees and investors and their representatives any additional information, documents and instruments which the Placement Agent or the Company reasonably deem necessary to comply with the rules, regulations and judicial and administrative interpretations respecting compliance with such exemptions or qualifications and registrations in those states where the Units are to be offered or sold.

 (d)           The Company shall place a legend on the certificates representing the securities comprising the Units and the Placement Agent Warrants that the securities evidenced thereby have not been registered under the Act or applicable state securities laws, setting forth or referring to the applicable restrictions on transferability and sale of such securities under the Act and applicable state laws.

11

(e)           The Company shall apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Units to fund its working capital requirements and for such other purposes as substantially described under the “Use of Proceeds” section of the Memorandum.

(f)           During the Offering Period, the Company shall afford each prospective purchaser of Units the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from an officer of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Offering and the opportunity to obtain such other additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of the Memorandum to the extent it possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable expense or violation of any confidentiality agreements.

(g)         Except to the extent set forth in Section 1(a) hereto, until the earlier of (i) completion of the Offering, and (ii) the Termination Date, neither the Company nor any person or entity acting on its behalf shall negotiate with any other placement agent or underwriter with respect to a private or public offering of the Company’s debt or equity securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the ability during the Term, to negotiate and conclude terms with respect to establishing an equity credit line with a third party provider; provided the following terms are adhered to: (a) the Placement Agent shall be provided with periodic updates with respect to such activities during the Term, (b) no equity line shall be established that contemplate share issuances are below the per share offering price of the Shares or which contain terms that are more favorable than the terms of the Offering, (c) no actions shall be taken with respect to the establishment of the credit line which would jeopardize the exempt nature of the Offering under federal or state securities laws, including without limitation, the filing during the Offering Period of a registration statement with the SEC with respect to such credit line.   In addition, except as contemplated in Section 1(a) or in the Memorandum, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf shall, until the Termination Date, offer for sale to, or solicit offers to subscribe for Units or other securities of the Company from, or otherwise approach or negotiate in respect thereof with, any other person.

(h)     Until the earlier of (i) the Termination Date and (ii) the Final Closing, the Company will not issue any press release, grant any media interview (including without limitation, internet media outlets), or otherwise communicate with the media in any manner whatsoever except to the extent it first provides the Placement Agent prior written notice of the proposed press release or other communication which it desires to make and provides the Placement Agent with a reasonable opportunity to comment on such press release or other communication.   In no event shall the Company issue any press release or otherwise communicate with the media in a fashion that could jeopardize the exempt nature of the Offering.

(i)       The Company shall pay all expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and printing of all necessary offering documents, amendments, and instruments related to the Offering and the issuance of the Units, the Common Stock, Investor Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants, and shall also pay its own expenses for accounting fees, legal fees, bound volumes of closing documents, and other costs involved with the Offering. The Company shall provide at its own expense such quantities of the Memorandum and other documents and instruments relating to the Offering as the Placement Agent may reasonably request. The Blue Sky filings shall be prepared by the Placement Agent’s counsel for the Company’s account, with copies to Company’s counsel concurrently (or as soon as sent or received as reasonable possible) of the filings, correspondence, orders, findings and all related matters.  In addition, the Company shall pay all filing fees and reasonable legal fees and expenses for Blue Sky services and related filings and out-of-pocket expenses of the Placement Agent’s counsel with respect to Blue Sky exemptions that are sought with respect to the Offering (the “Blue Sky Expenses”), $4,000 of which shall be paid to the Placement Agent’s counsel upon the First Closing, and additional reasonable amounts, if any, of which shall be paid at any subsequent Closing, as applicable.  The Blue Sky filings shall be prepared by the Placement Agent’s counsel for the Company’s account and Placement Agent’s counsel shall communicate with the Company’s counsel with respect to such filings.

12

13

(h)           At each Closing, the Company shall pay and deliver to the Placement Agent the Placement Agent Fee, calculated in accordance with Sections 3(c), the Expense Allowance, calculated in accordance with Sections 3(c) and the Blue Sky Expenses in accordance with Section 5(i) hereof.

(i)           At each Closing the Company shall have delivered to the Placement Agent and/or its designees, the appropriate number of Placement Agent Warrants, calculated in accordance with Section 3(d) hereof.

(j)           There shall have been delivered to the Placement Agent a signed opinion of Aboudi & Brounstein Law Offices,  counsel to the Company, dated as of each Closing Date, containing substantially the opinions set forth as Exhibit B hereto.

(k)           All proceedings taken at or prior to each Closing in connection with the authorization, issuance and sale of the Units and the Agent’s Warrants will be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Placement Agent and its counsel, and such counsel shall have been furnished with all such documents, certificates and opinions as it may reasonably request upon reasonable prior notice in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

7.            Representation and Warranties of the Placement Agent; Covenants of the Placement Agent.

(a)           The Placement Agent hereby represents and warrants to the Company that it is a registered broker-dealer pursuant to the Exchange Act and a member in good standing of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority

(b)           The Placement Agent shall not engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising that is prohibited by Regulation D in connection with the Offering, or take any action that might reasonably be expected to jeopardize the availability for the Offering of the exemption from registration provided by Rule 506 under Regulation D.

8.            Indemnification.

(a)           The Company shall: (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Placement Agent, its selected dealers, agents and their respective officers, directors, employees and each person, if any, who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of the Act and such agents (each an “Indemnitee”) against, and pay or reimburse each Indemnitee for, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses whatsoever (or actions or proceedings or investigations in respect thereof), joint or several (which will, for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including appeals), to which any Indemnitee may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, in connection with the offer and sale of the Units, and (ii) reimburse each Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, action, proceeding or investigation; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, damage or liability is found in a final judgment, or judgment not appealed within the prescribed appeal time period, in both cases by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (A) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact made in the Memorandum, or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent or any such controlling persons specifically for use in the Memorandum, (B) any violations by the Placement Agent or such controlling persons of the Act or state securities laws which does not result from a violation thereof by the Company or any of its affiliates, or (C) the gross negligence, willful misconduct, or bad faith of the Placement Agent or the party claiming a right to indemnification.  In addition to the foregoing agreement to indemnify and reimburse the Indemnitees, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses whatsoever (or actions or proceedings or investigations in respect thereof), joint or several (which shall for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including appeals) to which any Indemnitee may become subject insofar as such costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon the claim of any person or entity that he or it is entitled to broker’s or finder’s fees from any Indemnitee in connection with the Offering and provided that such claim did not arise out of actions taken by the Placement Agent.

14

(b)    The Placement Agent will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors, employees and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act against, and pay or reimburse any such person for, any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities or expenses whatsoever (or actions, proceedings or investigations in respect thereof), joint or several, to which the Company or any such person may become subject under the Act or otherwise, in connection with the offer and sale of the Units, insofar whether such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions, proceedings or investigations in respect thereof) shall result from any claim of the Company, any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, any person who controls the Company and such persons within the meaning of the Act or any third party, but only insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are based upon (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Memorandum, but only with reference to information contained in the Memorandum relating to the Placement Agent, or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, if made or omitted in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent or any such controlling persons, specifically for use in the preparation thereof, or (B) fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Placement Agent.  The Placement Agent will reimburse the Company or any such person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, proceeding or investigation to which such indemnity obligation applies, including appeals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in no case shall the Placement Agent have any liability to any person under this Section 8(b) for the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of the Company or any person entitled to indemnification hereunder and (ii) in no event shall the Placement Agent’s indemnification obligation hereunder exceed the fees payable to it hereunder, except in cases of the Placement Agent’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct as determined in a final judgment, or judgment not appealed within the prescribed appeal time period, in both cases by a court of competent jurisdiction.

15

(c)     Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, claim, proceeding or investigation (the “Action”), such indemnified party, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, will notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section 8 unless the indemnifying party has been substantially prejudiced by such omission. The indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof subject to the provisions herein stated, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. The indemnified party will have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will not be at the expense of the indemnifying party if the indemnifying party has assumed the defense of the Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, provided, however, that if the indemnified party shall be requested by the indemnifying party to participate in the defense thereof or shall have concluded in good faith and specifically notified the indemnifying party either that there may be specific defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or that such Action involves or could have a material adverse effect upon it with respect to matters beyond the scope of the indemnity agreements contained in this Agreement, then the counsel representing it, to the extent made necessary by such defenses, shall have the right to direct such defenses of such Action on its behalf and in such case the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel in connection with any such participation or defenses shall be paid by the indemnifying party. No settlement of any Action against an indemnified party will be made without the consent of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in light of all factors of importance to such party and no indemnifying party shall be liable to indemnify any person for any settlement of any such claim effected without such indemnifying party’s consent.

9.           Contribution.  To provide for just and equitable contribution, if (i) an indemnified party makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8 hereof and it is finally determined, by a judgment, order or decree not subject to further appeal that such claims for indemnification may not be enforced, even though this Agreement expressly provides for indemnification in such case; or (ii) any indemnified or indemnifying party seeks contribution under the Act, the 1934 Act, or otherwise, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total commissions and fees actually received by the Placement Agent.  The relative fault, in the case of an untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission will be determined by, among other things, whether such statement, alleged statement, omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Placement Agent, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement, alleged statement, omission or alleged omission. The Company and the Placement Agent agree that it would be unjust and inequitable if the respective obligations of the Company and the Placement Agent for contribution were determined by pro rata allocation of the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses or by any other method or allocation that does not reflect the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 9. No person guilty of a fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 9, each person, if any, who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of the Act will have the same rights to contribution as the Placement Agent, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions of this Section 9. Anything in this Section 10 to the contrary notwithstanding, no party will be liable for contribution with respect to the settlement of any claim or action effected without its written consent. This Section 9 is intended to supersede, to the extent permitted by law, any right to contribution under the Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise available.

16

10.         Termination.

(a) The Offering may be terminated by the Placement Agent at any time prior to the expiration of the Offering Period in the event that: (i) any of the representations, warranties or covenants of the Company contained herein, in the Memorandum or in any other Transaction Document shall prove to have been false or misleading in any material respect when actually made, (ii) the Company shall have failed to perform any of its material obligations hereunder or under any other Transaction Document; or (iii) there shall occur any event, within the control of the Company, which could materially adversely affect the transactions contemplated hereby or the other Transaction Documents or the ability of the Company to perform thereunder.  In such event, the Placement Agent shall be entitled to receive from the Company, within ten (10) business days of the Termination Date, in addition to other rights and remedies it may have hereunder, at law or otherwise, an amount equal to the sum of: (A) any and all Placement Agent Fee which would have been earned through the Termination Date based on amounts in the Escrow Account that, but for the termination would have been available in normal course for release to the Company at a Closing and shall retain any Placement Agent Fee for any closings previously consummated; (B) the Expense Allowance based on amounts in the Escrow Account that, but for the termination would have been available in normal course to be paid to the Placement Agent at a Closing and shall retain any Expense Allowance for any closings previously consummated [(A) and (B) collectively, the “Termination Amount”] and (C) all amounts which may become payable in respect of Post-Closing Investors pursuant to Section 3(e) hereof.  In addition, in the event such termination occurs prior to the time that a Closing has been consummated and there are no funds in the Escrow Account, the Placement Agent will be entitled, upon presentation of a written accounting therefor in reasonable detail (but without the need to include the underlying statements or evidence of payment), to prompt reimbursement of its actual, out-of-pocket expenses related to the Offering in an amount not to exceed $15,000  (of which $5,000 has previously been paid) including but not limited to fees and expenses of legal counsel, travel expenses and the fees and expenses of outside experts, if any, retained to assist the Placement Agent with due diligence (the foregoing hereinafter referred to as the “Expense Reimbursement”).

(b)  This Offering may be terminated by the Company at any time prior to the expiration of the Offering Period in the event that the Placement Agent shall have failed to perform any of its material obligations hereunder (excluding failing to raise the Minimum Amount hereunder). In the event of any such termination by the Company, the Placement Agent shall not be entitled to any amounts whatsoever except for the Expense Reimbursement.

(c)  This Offering may also be terminated by the Company at any time prior to the expiration of the Offering Period for any reason not covered in Section 10(b) above (the “Company 10(c) Termination”).  In such event, the Placement Agent shall be entitled to receive from the Company (i) the Termination Amount (or if at the time of such termination, there are no funds in the Escrow Account that have or are to be released to Company, the Expense Reimbursement) and (ii) all amounts which may become payable in respect of Post-Closing Investors pursuant to Section 3(e) hereof.  In addition, if within twelve (12) months after the Company 10(c) Termination, the Company conducts a public or private offering of its securities or enters into a letter of intent with respect to the foregoing, then upon the closing of any such transaction, the Placement Agent shall be entitled to receive from the Company an amount equal to five (5%) of the gross proceeds raised in such transaction (the “Company 10 (c) Termination Amount”).

(d)  Upon any such termination, the Placement Agent and the Company will cause, via written instructions to the Escrow Agent, all monies received with respect to the subscriptions for Units not accepted by the Company to be promptly returned to such subscribers without interest, penalty, expense or deduction.

17

(e)  Before any termination by the Placement Agent under Section 10(a) or by the Company under Section 10(b) or Section 10(c) shall become effective, the terminating party shall give written notice to the other party of its intention to terminate the Offering (the “Termination Notice”).  The Termination Notice shall specify the grounds for the proposed termination. If the specified grounds for termination, or their resulting adverse effect on the Transactions, are curable, then the other party shall have ten (10) days from the Termination Notice within which to remove such grounds or to eliminate all of their material adverse effects on the Transactions contemplated hereby; otherwise, the Offering shall terminate.

11.           Survival.  The obligations of the parties to pay any costs and expenses hereunder and to provide indemnification pursuant to Section 8 and contribution pursuant to Section 9 shall survive any termination or completion of the Offering.  The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company or the Placement Agent set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of, and regardless of any access to information by, the Company or the Placement Agent, or any of their officers or directors or any controlling person thereof, and will survive the sale of the Units.  In addition, the provisions of Sections 3(e), 5(e), and 10 through 18 hereof shall also survive the termination or expiration of this Offering.

14.           Limitation of Engagement to the Company. The Company acknowledges that the Placement Agent has been retained only by the Company, that the Placement Agent is providing services hereunder as an independent contractor (and not in any fiduciary or agency capacity) and that the Company’s engagement of the Placement Agent is not deemed to be on behalf of, and is not intended to confer rights upon, any shareholder, owner or partner of the Company or any other person not a party hereto as against the Placement Agent or any of its affiliates, or any of its or their officers, directors, controlling persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act), employees or agents, other than the indemnification and contribution provisions set forth in Sections 8 and 9 hereof.

16.           Miscellaneous.  No provision of this Agreement may be changed or terminated except by a writing signed by the party or parties to be charged therewith.  Unless expressly so provided, no party to this Agreement will be liable for the performance of any other party’s obligations hereunder.  Either party hereto may waive compliance by the other with any of the terms, provisions and conditions set forth herein; provided, however, that any such waiver shall be in writing specifically setting forth those provisions waived thereby.  No such waiver shall be deemed to constitute or imply waiver of any other term, provision or condition of this Agreement.

17.           Entire Agreement.  This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements (including, without limitation, that certain letter agreement  between the Company and the Placement Agent dated June 14, 2010) between the parties with respect to the Offering and the subject matter hereof.

18.           Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which may be executed by less than all of the parties and shall be deemed to be an original instrument which shall be enforceable against the parties actually executing such counterparts and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature 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 facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.  This Agreement shall become effective when one or more counterparts has been signed and delivered by each of the parties hereto.
