The Company further represents to each Holder that the Company's decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation of the Company and its representatives. v. Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and the Subsidiaries own or possess adequate rights or licenses to use all trademarks, trademark applications, trade names and service marks, whether or not registered, and all patents, patent applications, copyrights, inventions, licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations, trade secrets and intellectual property rights (collectively, "Intellectual Property Rights") which are necessary for use in connection with their respective businesses as now conducted and as described in the SEC Documents. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(v), none of the Company's Intellectual Property Rights have expired or terminated, or are expected to expire or terminate within two (2) years from the date of this Agreement.

The Company further acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Underlying Shares upon conversion of the Preferred Stock in accordance with this Agreement and the Certificates of Designation is absolute and unconditional, regardless of the 10 dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership interests of the Company's other stockholders. y. Solvency. The Company (both before and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) is solvent (i.e., its assets have a fair market value in excess of the amount required to pay its probable liabilities on its existing debts as they become absolute and matured) and currently the Company has no information that would lead it to reasonably conclude that the Company would not have the ability to, nor does it intend to take any action that would impair its ability to, pay its debts from time to time incurred in connection therewith as such debts mature. The Company did not receive a qualified opinion from its auditors with respect to its most recent fiscal year end and does not anticipate or know of any basis upon which its auditors might issue a qualified opinion in respect of its current fiscal year. z.

Information. Such Holder and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the exchange of the Preferred Stock which such Holder considers necessary or appropriate and which have been requested by such Holder or its advisors. Such Holder and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigation conducted by Holder or any of its advisors or representatives shall modify, amend or affect Holder's right to rely on the Company's representations and warranties contained in Section 2.1 above or representations and warranties of the Company contained in any other Transaction Document.

Absence of Claims. Such Holder does not currently have under consideration, and is not otherwise currently aware of, any claims, causes of action, damages or demands whatsoever that it or any of its officers, directors, partners or Affiliates (as such term is defined in the Series A Certificate of Designation) may have against the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors, successors, officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, insurers, representatives or Affiliates, whether legal, equitable or administrative, or fixed or contingent. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holders make no representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section 2.2. ARTICLE III. OTHER AGREEMENTS 3.1 Transfer Restrictions. a. If any Holder should decide to dispose of the Preferred Stock or the Underlying Shares held by it, such Holder understands and agrees that it may do so only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, to the Company or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"). In connection with any transfer of any Preferred Stock or Underlying Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, Rule 144 or to the Company, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company a written opinion of counsel experienced in the area of United States securities laws selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions and reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred securities under the Securities Act; provided, however, that if the Preferred Stock or Underlying Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k), no written opinion of counsel shall be required from the Holder if such Holder provides reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company hereby consents to and agrees to register any transfer by any Holder to an Affiliate (as defined in the Certificates of Designation) of such Holder, provided that the transferee certifies to the Company that it is an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act. Any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights of a Holder under 13 this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. If a Holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, the form and substance of which opinion shall be customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions and reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that a public sale, assignment or transfer of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares may be made without registration under the Securities Act or the Holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that the Preferred Stock and/or the Underlying Shares can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities acquired as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Company shall permit the transfer, and, in the case of the Underlying Shares, promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Holder and without any restrictive legend. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained herein to the contrary, the securities may be pledged as collateral in connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending arrangement. b. Each Holder agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 3.1(b), of the following legend on the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares: THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. ACCORDINGLY, THE SHARES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AS DETERMINED PURSUANT TO AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE CORPORATION THAT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION WILL BE EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION. Neither the Preferred Stock nor the Underlying Shares shall contain the legend set forth above (or any other legend) (i) if in the written opinion of counsel to the Company experienced in the area of United States securities laws such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission), (ii) if such Preferred Stock or Underlying Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) or (iii) if such shares are registered for resale under the Securities Act. The Company agrees that it will provide each Holder, upon request, with a certificate or certificates representing shares of Preferred Stock or Underlying Shares, free from such legend at such time as such legend is no longer required hereunder. If such certificate or certificates had previously been issued with such a legend or any other legend, the Company shall, upon request and upon the delivery of the legended certificate(s), reissue such certificate or certificates free of any legend. 3.2 Stop Transfer Instruction. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company which enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 3.1. 14 3.3 Furnishing of Information. As long as any Holder owns the Preferred Stock or the Underlying Shares, the Company will cause the Common Stock to continue at all times to be registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, will timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and, unless filed by EDGAR, promptly furnish, but in no event later than two (2) business days after the filing thereof with the Commission, the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings, and will not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the Exchange Act or the rules thereunder) to terminate or suspend such reporting and filing obligations. As long as any Holder owns the Preferred Stock or the Underlying Shares, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to the Holders and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) promulgated under the Securities Act, annual and quarterly financial statements, together with a discussion and analysis of such financial statements in form and substance substantially similar to those that would otherwise be required to be included in reports required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as well as any other information required thereby, in the time period that such filings would have been required to have been made under the Exchange Act. The Company also agrees that prior to and during the Effectiveness Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) it will make available or give to the Holders all notices and other information made available or given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the making available or giving thereof to the stockholders. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of the Preferred Stock or the Underlying Shares may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Person to sell the Preferred Stock or the Underlying Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including delivering the legal opinion referenced in Section 3.1(b) hereof. Upon the request of any such Person, the Company shall deliver to such Person a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements. 3.4 Blue Sky Laws. In accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall: (a) qualify the Underlying Shares under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the Holders may request (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), (ii) shall provide evidence to each Holder of any such action so taken on or prior to the Closing Date and (iii) shall continue such qualification at all times through the resale of all of the Underlying Shares, but in any event not past the third anniversary of the Closing Date. 3.5 Integration. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or exchange of the Preferred Stock or the Underlying Shares in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Preferred Stock or the Underlying Shares to any Holder, or to issue securities in such circumstances that is likely to result in such offering being integrated with the exchange of the Preferred Stock and Underlying Shares in such manner that stockholder approval would be required pursuant to any stockholder approval provision applicable to the Company or its securities. 15 3.6 Listing and Reservation of Underlying Shares. a. The Company shall (i) not later than ten (10) business days after the Closing Date prepare and file with Nasdaq (as well as any other national securities exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then listed) a Notification Form: Listing of Additional Shares or such other listing applications or letters acceptable to Nasdaq covering a number of shares of Common Stock which is at least equal to 100% of the maximum number of Underlying Shares then issuable (the "Application"), (ii) take all steps necessary to cause the Application for the Underlying Shares to be accepted by Nasdaq (as well as on any other national securities exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then listed) as soon as possible thereafter, (iii) so long as any shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, shall not revoke the Application for the Underlying Shares, and (iv) upon request provide to the Holders evidence of the Application as accepted by Nasdaq. Prior to the effectiveness of any registration statement filed to register the resale of the Underlying Shares, the Company shall promptly provide to each Holder copies of any notices it receives from Nasdaq regarding the continued eligibility of the Common Stock for listing on such automated quotation system so long as such notice does not contain any material, nonpublic information. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 3.6(a). b. The number of shares of Common Stock included in the Initial Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) shall be equal to the Maximum Amount (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). c. The Company at all times shall reserve a sufficient number of shares of its authorized but unissued Common Stock to provide for 110% of the maximum number of Underlying Shares. Shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance upon conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock shall be allocated pro rata to each of the Holders in accordance with the number of shares of Preferred Stock issued and delivered to such Holder at the Closing. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is insufficient to cover 100% of the number of Underlying Shares issued and issuable upon conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock (including the payment of all dividends thereon) (based on the Conversion Price (as defined in the Certificates of Designation)) of the shares of Preferred Stock in effect from time to time without regard to any limitation on conversions, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve 110% of such shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company's obligations under this Section 3.6(c), in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, and using best efforts to obtain stockholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares and taking actions pursuant to Section 3(b) of the Registration Rights Agreement. 16 3.7 Notice of Breaches. a. The Company and each Holder shall give prompt written notice to the other of any breach by it of any representation, warranty or other agreement contained in this Agreement or in the Transaction Documents, as well as any events or occurrences arising after the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date, which would reasonably be likely to cause any representation or warranty or other agreement of such party, as the case may be, contained herein to be incorrect or breached as of the Closing Date; provided such notice will not constitute material non-public information. However, no disclosure by either party pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall be deemed to cure any breach of any representation, warranty or other agreement contained herein or in the Transaction Documents. b. Notwithstanding the generality of Section 3.7(a), the Company shall promptly notify, provided such notification will not constitute material non-public information, each Holder of any notice or claim (written or oral) that it receives from any lender of the Company or any Subsidiary to the effect that the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Registration Rights Agreement violates or would violate any written agreement or understanding between such lender and the Company or any Subsidiary, and the Company shall promptly furnish by facsimile to the Holders a copy of any written statement in support of or relating to such claim or notice. c. The default by any Holder of any of its obligations, representations or warranties under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents shall not be imputed to any other Holder and, except with respect to the accuracy of each Holder's representations and warranties and the obligation of each Holder to tender for cancellation the Debentures that it holds to the Company at Closing, the default by any Holder of its obligations, representations or warranties under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents shall not affect the Company's obligations under this Agreement or any Transaction Document to any non-defaulting Holder. 3.8 Form D. The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Preferred Stock as required by Rule 506 under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Holder promptly after such filing. 3.9 Transfer Agent Instructions. On the Closing Date the Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent (and shall issue to any subsequent transfer agent as required), to issue certificates, registered in the name of each Holder or its respective nominee(s), for the Underlying Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Holder to the Company in a form acceptable to such Holders (the "Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions"). The Company warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 3.9, and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 3.1 hereof prior to registration of the Underlying Shares under the Securities Act, will be given by the Company to its transfer agent and that the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holders by violating the intent and purpose of the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the 17 Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 3.9 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a beach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 3.9, that the Holders shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. 3.10 Press Release; Filing of Form 8-K. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.11 hereof, prior to the opening of Nasdaq on August 1, 2002, the Company shall issue a press release disclosing the transaction contemplated hereby in form and substance acceptable to the Holders. On or before the 5th business day following the Closing Date, the Company shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Commission describing the terms of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents in the form required by the Exchange Act. 3.11 Ordinary Course Brokerage and Trading. Subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws and Nasdaq regulations, no Holder shall be prohibited from engaging in its ordinary course brokerage and trading activities in respect of the Common Stock; provided, however, that the Holder engaged in such activities shall not then be in possession of material, non-public information with respect to the Company. 3.12 Best Efforts. Each of the parties hereto shall use its best efforts to satisfy each of the conditions to be satisfied by it as provided in Article IV of this Agreement. 3.13 Material Information. The Company covenants that any information provided by the Company to the Holders and their agents or counsel which could be deemed to constitute material non-public information will cease to be material non-public information (either through disclosure by the Company or otherwise) on such date as the Company files its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2002. 3.14 Preferred Stock Characterization. In the event of any determination as to whether the Preferred Stock constitutes debt or equity of the Company, it is hereby declared that it is the mutual intention of the Company and the Holders that the Preferred Stock be deemed equity of the Company. In the event that notwithstanding the foregoing expressed intention, it is determined that the Preferred Stock constitutes debt of the Company, then the Company and the Holders do hereby agree to negotiate in good faith any amendments to the Certificate or other Transaction Documents that are necessary to render the Preferred Stock being deemed equity of the Company, provided that any such changes shall ultimately be made in the sole discretion of the Holders of not less than sixty percent (60%) of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. 18 ARTICLE IV.

No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by both the Company and the Holders of not less than sixty percent (60%) of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the shares of Preferred Stock outstanding. The Company shall not offer or pay any consideration to a Holder for consenting to such an amendment or waiver unless the same consideration is offered to each Holder and the same consideration is paid to each Holder that consents to such amendment or waiver. 6.4 Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. 6.5 References. References herein to Sections are to Sections of this Agreement, unless otherwise expressly provided. 6.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each of the Holders. The Holders may assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company, provided, that any assignees must execute and deliver to the Company an instrument expressly making the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.2 and agrees to become a party hereto; further that, prior to the Closing Date, the Holders may assign this Agreement its rights and rights or obligations hereunder only to an Affiliate of such Holder. This provision shall not limit a Holder's right to transfer securities in accordance with all of the terms of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents. 26 6.7 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person. 6.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the nonexclusive 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 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, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 6.9 Survival. The representations and warranties of the Company and the Holders contained in Sections 2.1 and 2.2, the agreements and covenants set forth in Section 3, and the indemnification provisions set forth in Section 5, shall survive the Closing and any conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock or exercise of the Warrants regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the such Holder or by or on behalf of the Company, except that, in the case of representations and warranties such survival shall be limited to the period of six (6) years following the Closing Date on which they were made or deemed to have been made (other than with respect to any claim by a third party against the party to this Agreement who seeks to assert a claim based on such representations and warranties). This section shall have no effect on the survival of the indemnification provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement. 6.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof. 6.11 Publicity. The Company and the Holders shall consult with each other in issuing any press releases or otherwise making public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and neither party shall issue any such press release or otherwise make any such public statement without the prior written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that no prior consent shall be required if such 27 disclosure is required by law, in which such case the disclosing party shall provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement. The Company shall not publicly or otherwise disclose the names of any of the Holders without each such Holder's prior consent, except to the extent required by law and in the initial press release with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Holders and their affiliated companies shall, without further cost, have the right to use in its advertising, marketing or other similar materials all or parts of the Company's press releases that focus on the transactions forming the subject matter of this Agreement or which make reference to such transactions. The Holder understand that this grant by the Company only waives objections that the Company might have to the use of such materials by the Holders and in no way constitutes a representation by the Company that references in such materials to the activities of third-parties have been cleared or constitute a fair use. 6.12 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement. 6.13 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Holders will be entitled to specific performance of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents without the showing of economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. Each of the Company and the Holders (severally and not jointly) agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of its obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agree to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. 6.14 Independent Nature of Holders' Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Holder hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of the other Holders hereunder, and no Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Holder hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holders are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Holder shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. 6.15 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Holders hereunder or pursuant to the Transaction Documents or the Holders enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be 28 refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. 6.16 Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. 6.17 Fees and Expenses. Except as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement; provided, that on the Closing Date, the Company shall reimburse the Holders for $35,000 of the legal fees and expenses of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, L.L.P., incurred in connection with negotiating and preparing this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and consummating the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company shall pay all stamp and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the issuance of the Preferred Stock and upon conversion thereof, the Underlying Shares. 29 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Exchange Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized persons as of the date first indicated above.
