(each, an "Investor" and collectively, the "Investors").
THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Purchase and Sale of Stock.
1.1 Sale and Issuance of Series A Preferred Stock.
(a) The Board of Directors of the Company has approved, and
upon receipt of all necessary stockholder approvals, the Company shall file with

defined below), an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Restated Certificate").
(b) The Board of Directors of the Company has authorized,
subject to the receipt of all necessary stockholder approvals, (i) the sale and
issuance to the Investors of the Series A Preferred Stock (as defined below) and
(ii) the issuance of the shares of Common Stock (as defined below) to be issued
upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock (the "Conversion Shares"). The
Series A Preferred Stock and the Conversion Shares shall have the rights,
preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth in the Restated Certificate.
(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
each Investor agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase at the Closing (as

Closing, that number of shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock set
forth opposite each Investor's name on Schedule A hereto for a purchase price of
$5.17 per share (the "Per Share Price").
(d) If requested by the Company pursuant to Section 1.1(e)
hereof, the Investors may, in the sole discretion of the Investors holding a
majority of the Series A Preferred Stock, purchase additional shares of the
Company's Series A Preferred Stock from time to time at a per share purchase
price equal to the Per Share Price (such purchase, an "Additional Investment")
for aggregate cash consideration not to exceed $15,000,000, in order to finance
the Company's working capital needs and to finance investments and acquisitions
other than the acquisition described in the Asset Purchase Agreement (as defined
below).
(e) If the Company wishes to request that the Investors make
an Additional Investment, the Company shall notify each Investor within 45 days
of the date hereof. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the
estimated closing date of the Additional Investment (which shall be a Business
Day and shall be on or after the date of the Closing), (ii) the number of shares
each Investor would buy (pro rata, based on the amount of such Investor's
original purchase, or as otherwise agreed by the Investors) and the aggregate
consideration each Investor would pay in such Additional Investment, (iii) a
reasonably detailed description of the anticipated use of proceeds of such
Additional Investment, and (iv) to the

or acquisitions, the conditions to consummation of such transaction or
transactions. In addition, the Company shall provide the Investors with such
other information as the Investors may reasonably request after they have
received such notice.
(f) If, within 45 days of the date hereof, (a) the Company
provides the notice described in Section 1.1(e) and (b) Investors whose pro rata
portions of the requested Additional Investment together represent a majority of
the Shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be sold in connection with such
Additional Investment shall have notified the Company that they (i) waive the
condition to Closing set forth in Section 8.8(b) hereof, and (ii) are willing to
provide their respective portions of the Additional Investment (subject to
satisfaction of the remaining conditions to the Subsequent Closing), such
Investor(s) shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Sections 7 and 8 hereof and relying on the representations and warranties herein
set forth, purchase from the Company at the Per Share Price that number of
shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock representing such Investors'
respective pro rata portions of the Additional Investment on the requested
closing date. If Investors who have agreed to purchase a majority of the shares
of Preferred Stock sold pursuant to this Agreement so request, the Company and
the Investors shall work together in good faith to agree on modifications to the
conditions precedent to the Subsequent Closing, and the Company shall deliver an
amended notice pursuant to Section 1.1(e) incorporating such agreed conditions
precedent.

the Series A Preferred Stock to be sold at the Closing pursuant to Section
1.1(c) shall take place at the offices of Lowenstein Sandler PC, 65 Livingston
Avenue, Roseland, New Jersey 07068 concurrently with the consummation of the
closing provided for in that certain asset purchase agreement (the "Asset
Purchase Agreement") of even date herewith, by and between Acquisition 1 Corp.

telecommunications relay services business (the "Business"), or at such other
time and place as the Company and Investors acquiring in the aggregate more than
half of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock sold pursuant hereto mutually
agree upon orally or in writing (which time and place are designated as the
"Closing"). At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to each Investor a

immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company.
Assuming that all conditions of the Subsequent Closing have been satisfied or
waived, the purchase and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock to take place at
the Subsequent Closing shall take place at the offices of Lowenstein Sandler PC,
65 Livingston Avenue, Roseland, New Jersey 07068 at such time on or after the

than half of the shares of Series A Preferred stock sold pursuant hereto
mutually agree upon orally or in writing (such time and place are designated as
the "Subsequent Closing", it being understood that there may be more than one
Subsequent Closing hereunder). At the Subsequent Closing, the Company shall
deliver to each Investor a certificate representing the Series A Preferred Stock
that such Investor is purchasing at the Subsequent

Closing against payment of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company.

Investors with respect to the Subsequent Closing pursuant to Section 1.1(e)
hereof.

however, in each case, not including any change that (A) is generally applicable
to the U.S. economy, (B) is generally applicable to Internet protocol data and

filing the Restated Certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware, 9,671,180 shares of Preferred Stock shall be designated Series A
Preferred Stock (the "Series A
-3-
Preferred Stock"), all of which may be sold pursuant to this Agreement (other

Stock for issuance under the Company Option Plans (including the shares

understanding and, to the Company's knowledge, there is no agreement or
understanding between any persons and/or entities which affects or relates to
the voting or giving of written consents with respect to any security of the

registration requirements and laws currently exist. Neither the Company nor any
authorized agent acting on its behalf will take any action hereafter that would
cause the loss of such exemption. 2.8 Litigation. There is no action, suit,
proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Company's knowledge, currently
threatened against the Company that questions the validity of this Agreement,
the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Managed Services Agreement (as defined below)
or the Investor Rights Agreement, or the right of the Company to enter into such
agreements or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, or that would
reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a
Material Adverse Effect or in any change in the current equity ownership of the
Company. Neither the Company nor any Operating Subsidiary is a party or subject
to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any
court or government agency or instrumentality.
2.9 Asset Purchase Agreement and Managed Services Agreement.
The Company has delivered to counsel to the Investors true and complete copies

Nordia Services LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the "Managed Services
Agreement" and, together with the Asset Purchase Agreement and the documents
referenced in both of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Managed Services
Agreement pertaining to the acquisition described in the Asset Purchase
Agreement, the "Operative Agreements"). All corporate action on the part of the
Company, its directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization,
execution and delivery by the Company of the Operative Agreements and the
performance of all obligations of the Company thereunder has been taken or will
be taken prior to the closing provided for in the Asset Purchase Agreement. The
Operative Agreements will constitute, when executed, valid and legally binding
obligations of the Company, and will be enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (ii) as limited by laws relating
to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other
equitable remedies. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any
federal, state or local governmental authority on the part of the Company is
required in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
the Operative Agreements, except as described in the Asset Purchase Agreement
and the Schedules thereto as of the date hereof.
2.10 Intellectual Property. Except as would not have a
Material Adverse Effect:
(a) To its knowledge, the Company and each Operating
Subsidiary owns sufficient right, title and interest in and to, or has
sufficient right to use pursuant to a valid license, option, assignment or
agreement, all of the Intellectual Property Rights (as defined below) used by
them and which the Company believes are necessary for the operation of the
business of the Company and each Operating Subsidiary as presently conducted,
and the lack of which would conflict with or infringe the rights of any third
party, except for such items as have yet to be conceived or developed or that
are expected to be available for licensing on reasonable terms. The Company and
each Operating Subsidiary has taken reasonable actions to maintain and protect
the confidentiality of Intellectual Property Rights consisting of trade secrets
that it owns. The Intellectual Property Rights that the Company or any Operating
Subsidiary owns, consisting of patents, copyrights, trademarks, service marks
and trade names, do not, to the Company's knowledge, conflict with or infringe
upon the rights of third parties, except for such items as have yet to be
conceived or developed or that are expected to be available for licensing on
reasonable terms. Since January 1, 2006, there have been no written claims made
against the Company or any subsidiary asserting the invalidity, misuse or
unenforceability of any Intellectual Property Rights that the Company or any
subsidiary owns and, to the Company's knowledge, there are no valid grounds for
the same. Since January 1, 2006, neither the Company nor any subsidiary has
received any communications alleging that the Company or any subsidiary has
violated, infringed or misappropriated any Intellectual Property Rights of any
other person or entity. To the Company's knowledge, neither the Company nor any
subsidiary is violating, infringing or misappropriating the Intellectual
Property Rights of any other person or entity. Since January 1, 2006, to the
Company's knowledge, no third party has interfered with, infringed upon,
violated, misappropriated, or otherwise come into conflict with any of the
Company's or any of its Operating Subsidiary's Intellectual Property Rights, or
of any right of any third party (to the
-7-
extent licensed by or through the Company or its Operating Subsidiaries), or
breached any license or agreement involving Intellectual Property Rights. Except
as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions, the Company has not brought any
action, suit or proceeding or asserted any claim against any person or entity
related to the foregoing. The Company is not aware that any of its employees is
obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of
any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of
any court or administrative agency, that would interfere with the use of his or
her best efforts to promote the interests of the Company or that would prevent
the employee from assigning his/her inventions to the Company.
(b) Neither the execution nor delivery of this
Agreement, the Operative Agreements or the Investor Rights Agreement, nor the
carrying on of the Company's business by the employees of the Company, nor the
employment of any employee of the Company, will, to the Company's knowledge,
conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of,
or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which
any of such employees is now obligated, including but not limited to, any
employment contract, patent disclosure agreement, confidentiality agreement or
any other contract or agreement relating to the relationship of any such
employee with the Company.
(c) For purposes of this Agreement, "Intellectual
Property Rights" means all (i) patents, patent applications, patent disclosures
and inventions, (ii) trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos and corporate
names and registrations and applications for registration thereof, (iii)
copyrights (registered and unregistered) and copyrightable works and
registrations and applications for registration thereof, (iv) mask works and
registrations and applications for registration thereof, (v) computer software,
data, databases and documentation thereof, (vi) trade secrets and other
confidential information (including, without limitation, ideas, formulas,
compositions, inventions (whether patentable or unpatentable and whether or not
reduced to practice), know-how, manufacturing and production processes and
techniques, research and development information, drawings, specifications,
designs, plans, proposals, technical data, financial and marketing plans and
customer and supplier lists and information) and (vii) other intellectual
property rights. As used in this Agreement, the phrases "to the Company's
knowledge" and "the Company is not aware" or any similar expression or phrase
refers to the actual knowledge of the executive officers of the Company (and
does not include any constructive or imputed notice of any information).
2.11 Compliance with Other Instruments. The Company is not in
violation of any provision of its certificate of incorporation or Bylaws.
Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is in violation of any
instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract, statute, rule or
regulation to which the Company or any subsidiary is subject and a violation of
which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Operative Agreements
and the Investor Rights Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby will not result in any such violation, or be in
conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of
notice, either a default under any such provision, instrument, judgment, order,
writ, decree or contract or an event that results in the creation of any lien,
charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company or any subsidiary or the
suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any material
permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to
-8-
the Company or any subsidiary, their business or operations or any of their
assets or properties, other than conflicts, defaults or other results which
would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
2.12 Agreements; Action.
(a) Except for agreements explicitly contemplated
hereby, there are no agreements, written or oral, between the Company and any
subsidiary and any of their officers, directors or affiliates.
(b) There are no agreements, understandings,
instruments, contracts, proposed transactions, judgments, orders, writs or
decrees to which the Company or any subsidiary is a party or by which any of
them is bound that may involve the license of any Intellectual Property Rights
or other proprietary right to or from the Company (other than licenses entered
into in the ordinary course of business).
(c) There are no agreements, commitments,
understandings, instruments, contracts, proposed transactions, judgments,

or payments to the Company or any subsidiary, in excess of $250,000, other than
obligations of, or payments to, the Company or any subsidiary arising from
agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) provisions
materially restricting the development, manufacture or distribution of the
Company's products or services (collectively, "Material Contracts"). The
Material Contracts are valid and in full force and effect as to the Company and
any Operating Subsidiary, and, to the Company's knowledge, to the other parties
thereto.
(d) With the exception of (i) indebtedness of the
Company and its subsidiaries under that certain Credit Agreement of even date
herewith (the "Credit Agreement") by and among the Company, Clearlake Capital
Group, LP, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent and the Lenders party
thereto, and (ii) the indebtedness contemplated by that certain First Lien Debt
Commitment Letter of even date herewith (the "First Lien Debt Commitment
Letter") and Second Lien Debt Commitment Letter of even date herewith (the
"Second Lien Debt Commitment Letter"), between the Company and Clearlake Capital

Lien Debt Commitment Letter, collectively, the "Debt Financings"), neither the
Company nor any subsidiary has outstanding any indebtedness for money borrowed
(which, for clarity, the parties agree does not include accounts payables or
other trade payables, capital leases or accrued expenses) in excess of $250,000
or, in the case of indebtedness for money borrowed individually less than
$250,000, in excess of $5,000,000 in the aggregate, other than liabilities
incurred in the ordinary course of business.
(e) For the purposes of subsections (a) and (b) above,
all indebtedness, liabilities, agreements, understandings, instruments,
contracts and proposed transactions involving the same person or entity
(including persons or entities the Company has reason to believe are affiliated
therewith) shall be aggregated for the purpose of meeting the individual minimum
dollar amounts of such subsections.

employee of the Company and its Operating Subsidiaries;

subsidiary to do any of the things described in this Section 2.15.
2.16 Tax Returns, Payments and Elections. The Company has
timely filed all tax returns (federal, state and local) required to be filed by
it, which tax returns are true and correct in all material respects. The Company
has paid all taxes and other assessments due, if any, except those contested by
it in good faith that are listed in the Schedule of Exceptions. Except as set
forth in the Schedule of Exceptions, none of the Company's federal income tax
returns and none of its state income or franchise tax or sales or use tax
returns has ever been audited by governmental authorities and, as of the date
hereof, to the Company's knowledge, there is no such audit pending or
threatened. Since March 31, 2007, the Company has not incurred any taxes,
assessments or governmental charges other than in the ordinary course of
business and the Company has made adequate provisions on its books of account
for all taxes, assessments and governmental charges with respect to its
business, properties and operations for such period. Except as would not
constitute a Material Adverse Effect, the Company has withheld or collected from
each payment made to each of its employees, the amount of all taxes (including,

taxes and Federal Unemployment Tax Act taxes) required to be withheld or
collected therefrom, and has paid the same to the proper tax receiving officers
or authorized depositories.
2.17 Permits. The Company and its Operating Subsidiaries have
all franchises, permits, licenses and any similar authority necessary for the
conduct of their respective businesses as now being conducted by them, the lack
of which would result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any
Operating Subsidiary is in default in any
-11-
material respect under any of such franchises, permits, licenses or other
similar authority. To the Company's knowledge, neither the Company nor any
Operating Subsidiary has received notification of proceedings relating to
revocation or modification of any such franchises, permits, licenses or other
similar authority.
2.18 Environmental and Safety Laws. To the Company's
knowledge, the Company and its subsidiaries are in compliance in all material
respects with all applicable statutes, laws and regulations relating to the
environment or occupational health and safety and, to the Company's knowledge,
no material expenditures are or will be required in order to comply with any
such existing statute, law or regulation. Neither the Company nor any subsidiary
has received any written communication from a governmental authority with
respect to any material violation of such statutes, laws or regulations.
2.19 Disclosure. Neither this Agreement (including all the
exhibits and schedules hereto) nor any certificates made or delivered in
connection herewith contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein not
misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.
2.20 Title to Property and Assets. The property and assets
that the Company or any subsidiary owns are owned by the Company or that
subsidiary free and clear of all mortgages, liens, loans and encumbrances,
except (i) for statutory liens for the payment of current taxes that are not yet
delinquent, (ii) for liens, encumbrances and security interests that arise in
the ordinary course of business and that do not secure indebtedness for borrowed
money (which, for clarity, the parties agree does not include accounts payables
or other trade payables, capital leases or accrued expenses) or guarantees
thereof, (iii) defects in title, none of which, individually or in the
aggregate, materially impair the Company's or the subsidiary's ownership or use
of such property or assets, and (iv) liens created in connection with the Debt
Financings. With respect to the property and assets the Company or any
subsidiary leases, the Company or the subsidiary, as applicable, is in
compliance with such leases except where the failure to be in compliance would
not constitute a Material Adverse Effect and, to its knowledge, holds a valid
leasehold interest free of any liens, claims or encumbrances, subject to clauses
(i), (ii) and (iii).
2.21 Employee Benefit Plans. The Company does not have or
contribute to any "employee benefit plan" as such term is defined in the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") that is subject to
Title IV of ERISA or the funding requirements of Section 412 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
2.22 Labor Agreements and Actions. Neither the Company nor any
subsidiary is bound by or subject to any contract, commitment or arrangement
with any labor union. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, neither the
Company nor any subsidiary is a party to or bound by any currently effective
material employment contract, deferred compensation agreement, bonus plan,
incentive plan, profit sharing plan, retirement agreement or other employee
compensation agreement. To the Company's knowledge, the Company and each
subsidiary has complied in all material respects with all applicable state and
federal equal employment opportunity and other laws related to employment.
-12-
2.23 Insurance. The Company and its Operating Subsidiaries
have in full force and effect the insurance policies listed on Schedule D
hereto. There are no claims in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate pending

Company against any of its insurance carriers and covering the property,
business or employees of the Company, and all premiums due and payable with
respect to the policies maintained by the Company have been paid.
2.24 Fees. Except as set forth in the Schedule of Exceptions,
the Company has no contract, arrangement or understanding with any broker,

3. Representations and Warranties of the Investors. Each Investor
severally and not jointly hereby represents, warrants and covenants that:
3.1 Authorization. Such Investor has full power and authority
to enter into this Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement, and each such
agreement constitutes its valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application
affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally, (b) as limited by laws
relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other
equitable remedies, and (c) to the extent the indemnification provisions
contained in the Investor Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable federal
or state securities laws.
3.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made
with such Investor in reliance upon such Investor's representation to the
Company, which by such Investor's execution of this Agreement such Investor
hereby confirms, that the Series A Preferred Stock to be received by such
Investor and the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion thereof
(collectively, the "Securities") will be acquired for investment for such
Investor's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the
resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no
present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise
distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, such Investor further
represents that such Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such
person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities.
3.3 Disclosure of Information. Such Investor believes it has
received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding
whether to purchase the Series A Preferred Stock. Such Investor further
represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers
from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the
Series A Preferred Stock and the business, properties, prospects and financial
condition of the Company. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the
representations and warranties of the Company in Section 2 of this Agreement or
the right of the Investors to rely thereon.
3.4 Investment Experience. Such Investor is an investor in
public companies with relatively low market capitalizations and acknowledges
that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its
investment, and has such knowledge and experience in
-13-
financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of the investment in the Series A Preferred Stock. If other than an
individual, such Investor also represents it has not been organized for the
purpose of acquiring the Series A Preferred Stock.
3.5 Accredited Investor. Such Investor is an "accredited
investor" within the meaning of SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in
effect.
3.6 Restricted Securities. Such Investor understands that the
Securities it is purchasing are characterized as "restricted securities" under
the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company
in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and
applicable regulations such Securities may be resold without registration under
the Act only in certain limited circumstances. In the absence of an effective
registration statement covering the Securities or an available exemption from
registration under the Act, the Securities must be held indefinitely. In this
connection, such Investor represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as
presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and
by the Act, including without limitation the Rule 144 condition that current
information about the Company be available to the public.
3.7 Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way
limiting the representations set forth above, such Investor further agrees not
to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until
the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound
by this Section 3 and the Investor Rights Agreement, provided and to the extent
that this Section 3 and the Investor Rights Agreement are then applicable, and:
(a) There is then in effect a registration statement
under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in
accordance with such registration statement; or
(b) (i) Such Investor shall have notified the Company of
the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed
statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) if
requested by the Company, such Investor shall have furnished the Company with an
opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such disposition
will not require registration of such shares under the Act.
Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b) above, no
such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a
transfer by an Investor to any affiliated venture capital fund or investment
fund, or by an Investor that is a partnership to a partner of such partnership
or a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or
to the estate of any such partner or retired partner or the transfer by gift,
will or intestate succession of any partner to his or her spouse or to the
siblings, lineal descendants or ancestors of such partner or his or her spouse,
if the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the
same extent as if he or she were an original Investor hereunder.
3.8 Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing
the Securities may bear one or all of the following legends:
-14-
(a) "THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED OR
QUALIFIED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS
OF ANY STATE. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED
UNLESS (A) THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT AND
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, COVERING ANY SUCH TRANSACTION INVOLVING SAID
SECURITIES, (B) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE
COMPANY STATING THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, OR (C) THE
COMPANY OTHERWISE SATISFIES ITSELF THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM
REGISTRATION."
(b) Any legend required by applicable laws.
3.9 Tax Advisors. Such Investor has reviewed with such
Investor's own tax advisors the federal, state and local tax consequences of
this investment, where applicable, and the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. Each such Investor is relying solely on such advisors and not on any
statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents and
understands that each such Investor (and not the Company) shall be responsible
for such Investor's own tax liability that may arise as a result of this
investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
3.10 Legal Advisors. Such Investor acknowledges that such
Investor has had the opportunity to review this Agreement, the exhibits and the
schedules attached hereto and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
the Debt Financings and the Asset Purchase Agreement with such Investor's own
legal counsel. Each such Investor is relying solely on such Investor's legal
counsel and, except with respect to the opinions to be delivered to the
Investors pursuant to Sections 5.5 and 8.4 hereof, not on any statements or
representations of the Company or any of the Company's agents, including
Lowenstein Sandler PC or Chadbourne & Parke LLP, for legal advice with respect

The Company shall, and shall direct each of its Representatives to, immediately
cease any solicitations, discussions or negotiations with any person (other than
the parties hereto) that has made or indicated an intention to make an Alternate
Financing Proposal, in each case that exist as of the date hereof, subject in
each case to the rights of the Company set forth in Sections 10.5(b) and
10.5(c).
-22-
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section
10.5(a), nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Company or its
Board of Directors from (i) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position
contemplated by Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act
(or any similar communication to stockholders in connection with the making or
amendment of a tender offer or exchange offer) or from making any legally
required disclosure to stockholders with regard to an Alternate Financing
Proposal (provided that neither the Company nor its Board of Directors may
recommend any Alternate Financing Proposal unless permitted by Section 10.5(c)
and the Company may not fail to make, or withdraw, modify or change in a manner
adverse to the Investors all or any portion of, the Recommendation unless
permitted by Section 10.3); (ii) providing access to its properties, books and
records and providing information or data in response to a request therefor by a
person or group who has made an unsolicited Alternate Financing Proposal that
the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith is credible if
the Board of Directors receives from the person so requesting such information
an executed confidentiality agreement; (iii) contacting and engaging in
discussions with any person or group and their respective Representatives who
has made an unsolicited Alternate Financing Proposal solely for the purpose of
clarifying such Alternate Financing Proposal and any material terms thereof and
the conditions to consummation so as to determine whether there is a reasonable
possibility that such Alternate Financing Proposal could lead to a Superior
Proposal; (iv) contacting and engaging in any negotiations or discussions with
any person or group and their respective Representatives who has made an
unsolicited Alternate Financing Proposal that the Board of Directors of the
Company determines in good faith is credible (which negotiations or discussions
are not solely for clarification purposes); or (v) prior to obtaining all
necessary stockholder approvals, (A) withdrawing, modifying or changing in any
adverse manner the Recommendation (which, in the event of an Alternate Financing
Proposal, shall be permitted only to the extent permitted by Section 10.5(c)) or
(B) recommending an unsolicited Alternate Financing Proposal that the Board of
Directors of the Company determines in good faith is credible, if and only to
the extent that in connection with the foregoing clauses (ii), (iv) and (v)(B),
the Board of Directors of the Company shall have determined in good faith, after
consultation with its legal counsel and financial advisors that, (x) in the case
of clause (v)(B) above only, such Alternate Financing Proposal would, if
consummated, result in a Superior Proposal and (y) in the case of clauses (ii)
and (iv) above only, such Alternate Financing Proposal constitutes a Superior
Proposal or there is a reasonable possibility that such actions in respect of
such Alternate Financing Proposal could lead to a Superior Proposal. The Company
shall also promptly notify the Investors within 48 hours of the receipt of any
Alternate Financing Proposal after the date hereof, which notice shall include
the material terms of such Alternate Financing Proposal.
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.5 to the
contrary, if (A) the Company's Board of Directors determines in good faith,
after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, in
response to an unsolicited Alternate Financing Proposal that did not otherwise
result from a material breach of Section 10.5(a), that such proposal is a
Superior Proposal, (B) the Company notifies the Investors in writing of the
terms of the Superior Proposal and the determinations described in clause (A)
above and of its intent to terminate this Agreement, (C) the Company's Board of
Directors takes into account any revised proposal made by the Investors to the
Company (a "Revised Investor Proposal") within three business days after the
Investors' receipt of such notice and again determines in good faith
-23-
after consultation with its outside legal counsel and independent financial
advisors that such Alternate Financing Proposal (as the same may have been
modified or amended) remains a Superior Proposal, and (D) the Company's Board of
Directors, if a Revised Investor Proposal has been made, and such Alternate
Financing Proposal had been modified or amended prior to the Board's
re-determination referred to in clause (C) above, (x) first, notifies the
Investors of the revised terms of such Alternate Financing Proposal; (y) second,
establishes a deadline, and notifies the Investors and the person making such
Alternate Financing Proposal thereof, to occur not less than three nor more than
seven business days after giving such notice, for the submission of final
proposals from both the Investors and such person; and (z) within seven business
days after such deadline, again determines in good faith after consultation with
its outside legal counsel and independent financial advisors that such Alternate
Financing Proposal remains a Superior Proposal and notifies the Investors of
such determination, the Company or its Board of Directors may terminate this
Agreement in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such
Superior Proposal and may withdraw, modify or change the Recommendation;
provided, however, that the Company shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant
to this Section 10.5(c), and any purported termination pursuant to this Section
10.5(c) shall be void and of no force or effect, unless the Company prior to or
concurrently with such termination pursuant to this Section 10.5(c) pays to the
Investors the Company Termination Fee.
(d) For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms
shall have the meanings assigned below:
(i) "Alternate Financing Proposal" means any
inquiry, proposal or offer from any Person or group of Persons (other than the
Investors) relating to any proposal or offer concerning an alternate financing
for the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement together with
any Additional Investment that the Investors have agreed to provide (subject to
the terms and conditions hereof) as of the date of such alternate financing
proposal.
(ii) "Superior Proposal" means any Alternate
Financing Proposal (x) on terms more favorable to the Company than the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, taking into account all of the
terms and conditions of such proposal and this Agreement (including any proposal
by the Investors to amend the terms of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, the First Lien Debt Commitment Letter or the Second Lien Debt
Commitment Letter), and (y) that the Board of Directors of the Company
determines in good faith is reasonably capable of being completed, taking into
account the identity of the person or persons making the proposal and all
financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects of such proposal.
10.6 Further Assurances. Subject to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, each party will use its reasonable commercial efforts to
take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all
things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and
regulations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
10.7 Public Statements. Each of the Company and the Investors
agrees that no public release or announcement concerning the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be issued without the prior written consent of the
Company or the Investors, except as such release
-24-
or announcement may be required by law or the rules or regulations of any
applicable securities exchange or regulatory or governmental body to which the
relevant party is subject, wherever situated, in which case the party required
to make the release or announcement shall use its reasonable commercial efforts
to provide the Company or the Investors, as the case may be, reasonable time to
comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance, it being
understood that the final form and content of any such release or announcement,
to the extent so required, shall be at the final discretion of the disclosing
party.

or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated hereunder and such order,
decree, ruling or other action is or shall have become final and nonappealable;
(c) by either the Investors or the Company if the
Closing shall not have occurred on or before December 31, 2007; provided,

to be sold in connection with the Closing may, in their sole discretion, extend

to this Section 11.1(c) shall not be available to the party seeking to terminate
unless (x) the Asset Purchase Agreement shall have terminated and (y) the party
seeking to terminate pursuant to this Section 11.1(c) shall not have been the
cause of the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date and such
action or failure to perform constitutes a breach of this Agreement.
(d) by the Company:
(i) if there shall have been a breach of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Investors
such that the conditions set forth in Sections 4, 6, 7 and 9 would not be
satisfied and, in either such case, such breach is not cured or curable by the
date on which all conditions to consummate the Asset Purchase Agreement have
been satisfied; or
(ii) in accordance with, and subject to the terms
and conditions of, Section 10.5(c);

7 and 8 would not be satisfied and, in either such case, such breach is not
cured or curable by the date on which all conditions to consummate the Asset
Purchase Agreement have been satisfied; or
(ii) if the Board of Directors of the Company
shall have withdrawn, modified or changed the Recommendation in a manner adverse
to the Investors (it being understood and agreed that, for all purposes of this
Agreement (including Sections 10.3 and 10.5), a communication by the Board of
Directors of the Company to the stockholders of the Company in accordance with
Rule 14d-9(f) of the Exchange Act, or any similar communication to the
stockholders of the Company in connection with the commencement of a tender
offer or exchange offer, shall not be deemed to constitute a withdrawal,
modification or change of the Recommendation) or shall have recommended to the
stockholders of the Company an Alternate Financing Proposal, or shall have
resolved to effect any of the foregoing (it being agreed that the taking of any
action by the Company, its Board of Directors or any of its Representatives of
any of the actions permitted by Section 10.5(b) shall not give rise to a right
to terminate pursuant to this clause (ii)).
(f) by either the Company or by Investors who have
agreed to purchase a majority of the Shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be
sold hereunder if, upon a vote taken on the Company Proposals at the
Stockholders Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof, the Company
Proposals shall not have been approved by the requisite vote of the stockholders
of the Company.
11.2 Effect of Termination.
(a) In the event of the termination of this Agreement
pursuant to Section 11.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there
shall be no liability or obligation on the part of any party hereto, except as
provided in this Section 11.2 and Section 12, which shall survive such
termination; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve any party from
liability for any breach of this Agreement.
(b) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by
the Company pursuant to Section 11.1(d)(ii), then no later than two (2) Business

connection any action (including the filing of any lawsuit) taken to collect

material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the
part of the Company contained in this Agreement such that any of the conditions

satisfied and such breach is not cured or curable by the date on which all
conditions to consummate any Additional Investment have been satisfied.
