Entry

Agreement
|
Letter
Loan Agreement
On
January 23, 2008, QuantRx Biomedical Corporation, a Nevada corporation
(“
QuantRx
”),
entered into a letter loan agreement (the “
loan
agreement
”)
with
Platinum Long Term Growth VII LLC (“
Platinum
”)
pursuant to which Platinum agreed to invest (the “
loan
”)
in
QuantRx up to $1,907,246.58. Under the loan agreement, Platinum invested
$250,000 at closing and will, on or prior to February 13, 2008, invest an
additional $500,000 (the “
additional
$500,000 investment
”)
on
substantially the same terms as the terms contained in the 10% senior secured
convertible promissory note evidencing the loan, in the principal amount of
$1,407,246.58, issued by QuantRx to Platinum on January 23, 2008 (the
“
note
”).
The
loan is secured by certain intellectual property of, and shares of common stock
of other corporations held by, QuantRx (the “
collateral
”)
pursuant to a stock pledge agreement (the “
stock
pledge agreement
”)
and a
patent, trademark and copyright security agreement (the “
patent,
trademark and copyright security agreement
”,
and
together with the stock pledge agreement, the “
security
agreements
”),
each
dated as of January 23, 2008. If Platinum fails to make the additional $500,000
investment on or before February 13, 2008, all security interests of Platinum
in
the collateral created by the security agreements will terminate. In connection
with the loan, QuantRx issued to Platinum a five-year warrant to purchase 62,500
shares of QuantRx’ common stock at $1.25 per share (the “
warrant
”).
The
material terms of the other principal agreements comprising the loan are
summarized below:
10%
Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note
On
January 23, 2008, QuantRx issued a 10% senior secured convertible promissory
note in the principal amount of $1,407,246.58 to Platinum. The $1,407,246.58
in
principal under the note is comprised of (i) Platinum’s cancellation and
exchange of the 10% senior secured convertible promissory note, in the principal
amount of $1,000,000 (the “
old
note
”),
dated
October 16, 2007, issued by QuantRx to Platinum, equal in value to $1,157,246.58
(comprised of the “roll-over” value of the outstanding principal, accrued and
unpaid interest and a 15% “most favored nations” exchange premium under the old
note) and (ii) $250,000 in new funding. Proceeds from the note will be used
by
QuantRx for general corporate purposes. The material terms of the note are
summarized below:
Maturity
Date, Interest and Automatic Conversion upon Qualified
Financing
.
The
outstanding principal of the note is payable by QuantRx on or before January
23,
2009. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the note will accrue
at a
rate of 10% per annum. The outstanding principal amount of the note and all
accrued but unpaid interest (together, the “
outstanding
balance
”)
will
automatically be exchanged into any of QuantRx’ securities issued in a qualified
equity or equity based financing or combination of equity financings with gross
proceeds totaling at least $5,660,000; provided, however, such $5,660,000 will
be reduced by the principal amount of the note and other 10% senior secured
convertible promissory notes of QuantRx (“other notes”, and together with the
note and the PIK notes (defined below), the “
notes
”)
up to
a maximum of $2,250,000. For purposes of determining the number of equity
securities, including warrants, to be received by holders of notes upon such
exchange, such holders will be deemed to have tendered 115% of the outstanding
principal amount of the notes and all accrued but unpaid interest as payment
of
the purchase price in such qualified financing. Upon such conversion, the
holders of notes will automatically be deemed to be purchasers in the qualified
financing, and will be granted all rights afforded such purchasers. Upon
consummation of the qualified financing, the notes will cease to exist, and
all
of QuantRx’ obligations under the notes will terminate.
Payment
of Interest
.
In the
event QuantRx does not complete a qualified financing, QuantRx must repay the
entire principal balance of the note then outstanding on January 23, 2009.
Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the note is payable quarterly
in
arrears in the last day of each calendar quarter, in cash or, at Platinum’s
option, in additional 10% senior secured convertible promissory notes
(“
PIK
notes
”)
with a
principal amount equal to the calculated interest amount.
Voluntary
Conversion of Principal and Interest
.
Platinum may, at its option, prior to the maturity date, convert the outstanding
balance into such number of shares of QuantRx’ common stock that equals the
outstanding balance divided by $0.50 (the “
conversion
price
”).
Mandatory
Conversion of Principal and Interest
.
Subject
to an effective registration statement covering the shares of common stock
underlying the note, if the closing bid price of QuantRx’ common stock is at
least 250% of the conversion price for 10 consecutive trading days, then the
outstanding balance will be automatically converted into that number of shares
of QuantRx’ common stock equal to the outstanding balance divided by the
conversion price.
Seniority
and Ranking
.
The
note ranks senior to QuantRx’ currently outstanding indebtedness and equity
securities, provided that the note will rank pari-passu with respect to the
other notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $2,250,000. Other
than the other notes, QuantRx may not issue any new indebtedness while at least
50% of the original principal amount of the notes remains outstanding without
the consent of holders of at least 75% of the principal amount of the then
outstanding notes.
Restrictive
Covenants
.
As long
as the note is outstanding, QuantRx agrees not to take the following actions
without the consent of the holders of 75% of the principal amount of the then
outstanding notes:
|
·
|
create
or incur any encumbrances with respect to any of its
assets;
|
|
·
|
fail
to comply in all material respects with its obligations under the
notes
and the other loan documents;
|
|
·
|
merge
or consolidate or, other than in the ordinary course of business,
sell or
dispose of all its assets or any substantial portion thereof (other
than,
with respect to its intellectual property, pursuant to licensing
agreements);
|
|
·
|
alter
its organizational structure or effect a change of
entity;
|
|
·
|
fail
to comply with law in all material respects or fail to duly observe
and
conform in all material respects to all valid requirements of governmental
authorities relating to the conduct of its business or to its properties
or assets; or
|
|
·
|
other
than with respect to transactions with FluoroPharma, Inc. and Genomics
USA, Inc., engage in any “related party” or “affiliate” transactions in
excess of $50,000, (excluding payment of reasonable salaries and
the
issuance of options pursuant to QuantRx’ equity compensation
plans).
|
Most
Favored Nations Exchange Right
.
As long
as the note remains outstanding, if QuantRx consummates an equity financing
that
is not a qualified financing, then Platinum may exchange the note for the
securities issued in such equity financing. In the event of such exchange,
the
holder will be deemed to have tendered 115% of the outstanding balance as
payment of the purchase price in such financing.
Conversion
Restrictions
.
Platinum may not convert the note into shares of QuantRx’ common stock if doing
so would cause the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by
Platinum to exceed 4.99% of QuantRx’ outstanding shares of common stock.
Platinum may waive this limitation upon 61 days’ notice to QuantRx. Similarly,
Platinum may not convert the note into shares of QuantRx’ common stock if doing
so would cause the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by
Platinum to exceed 9.99% of QuantRx’ outstanding shares of common stock.
Platinum may also waive this limitation upon 61 days’ notice to
QuantRx.
Demand
Registration Rights
.
If
QuantRx does not consummate a qualified financing on or before March 31, 2008,
the holders of the notes together as a class (subject to majority approval
of
the then outstanding balance of the notes) will have a one-time demand
registration right covering the conversion shares underlying the notes.
Event
of Default
.
Upon
the occurrence of an event of default, QuantRx must pay to Platinum, on demand,
the outstanding principal balance and all interest on the outstanding principal
balance of the notes, from the date of the event of default until payment in
full, at the rate of 12% per annum. Generally, the occurrence of any of the
following would constitute an event of default:
|
·
|
QuantRx
fails to make any principal or interest payment for a period of seven
business days after the date such payment becomes
due;
|
|
·
|
any
representation, warranty or certification made by QuantRx turns out
to be
false or incorrect in a material respect or QuantRx fails to comply
with
any of its material obligations under the
note;
|
|
·
|
the
holder of any indebtedness of QuantRx accelerates any payment of
any
principal or interest in an amount that exceeds
$100,000;
|
|
·
|
a
judgment or order for the payment of money is rendered against QuantRx
in
excess of $100,000 in the
aggregate;
|
|
·
|
QuantRx
(i) applies for or consents to the appointment of, or the taking
of
possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee or liquidator of itself
or
of all or a substantial part of its property or assets, (ii) makes
a
general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (iii) commences
a
voluntary case under the Bankruptcy Code, (iv) files a petition seeking
to
take advantage of any bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization
or other similar law affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights
generally, (v) acquiesces in writing to any petition filed against
it in
an involuntary case under the Bankruptcy Code, or (vi) takes any
action
under the laws of any jurisdiction analogous to any of the foregoing;
or
|
|
·
|
a
proceeding or case is commenced against QuantRx without its application
or
consent seeking (i) the liquidation, reorganization, moratorium,
dissolution, winding up, or composition or readjustment of its debts,
(ii)
the appointment of a trustee, receiver, custodian, liquidator or
the like
of it or of all or any substantial part of its assets or (iii) similar
relief in respect of it under any law providing for the relief of
debtors,
and such proceeding or case described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii)
is
undismissed for a period of 30 consecutive
days.
|
Stock
Pledge Agreement
In
connection with the loan, on January 23, 2008, QuantRx entered into the stock
pledge agreement, pursuant to which QuantRx granted a continuing and perfected
first priority security interest to Platinum in certain equity securities owned
by QuantRx of two private companies (collectively, the “
pledged
shares
”)
and
specified rights and interests associated with the pledged shares. If an event
of default occurs under the note, Platinum has agreed not to take any action
with respect to the pledged shares for 120 days after Platinum provides QuantRx
with notice of Platinum’s proposed action. The stock pledge agreement, and the
security interest created thereby, will terminate upon the earlier to occur
of
(i) February 14, 2008 (unless an event of default under the note occurs and
is
continuing or Platinum makes the additional $500,000 investment) and (ii)
QuantRx’ payment in full of its payment obligations under the note (including as
a result of the note’s conversion in full).
Patent,
Trademark and Copyright Security Agreement
Also,
in
connection with the loan, on January 23, 2008, QuantRx entered into the patent,
trademark and copyright security agreement, pursuant to which QuantRx granted
a
continuing and perfected first priority security interest to Platinum in all
of
its owned or acquired patents, trademarks and copyrights and specified
intellectual property and related rights and interests associated therewith
(the
“
IP
collateral
”).
If an
event of default occurs under the note, Platinum has agreed not to take any
action with respect to the IP collateral for 120 days after Platinum provides
QuantRx with notice of Platinum’s proposed action. The patent, trademark and
copyright security agreement, and the security interest created thereby, will
terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) February 14, 2008 (unless and event
of default under the note occurs and is continuing or Platinum makes the
additional $500,000 investment) and (ii) QuantRx’ payment in full of its payment
obligations under the note (including as a result of the note’s conversion in
full).
Warrant
In
consideration for the loaned funds evidenced by the note, QuantRx issued to
Platinum a warrant exercisable for 62,500 shares of QuantRx’ common stock at a
per share exercise price of $1.25. The warrants have a five-year term, provide
for cashless exercise and customary anti-dilution protection. If Platinum makes
the additional $500,000 investment, QuantRx will issue to Platinum a warrant
exercisable for 125,000 shares of QuantRx’ common stock that contains
substantially the same terms as those contained in the warrant.
Fees
QuantRx
has agreed to pay $7,500 to legal counsel for Platinum in connection with the
loan.

FOR
VALUE RECEIVED
,
the
undersigned, QuantRx Biomedical Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the
“
Company
”),
hereby promises to pay to the order of Platinum Long Term Growth VII LLC, or
any
future permitted holder of this Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note
(the
“
Payee
”),
at
the principal office of the Payee set forth herein, or at such other place
as
the holder may designate in writing to the Company, the principal sum of One
Million Four Hundred and Seven Thousand Two Hundred Forty Six Dollars and
Fifty-Eight Cents ($1,407,246.58) or such other amount as may be outstanding
hereunder, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, in such coin or
currency of the United States of America as at the time shall be legal tender
for the payment of public and private debts and in immediately available funds,
as provided in this Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note (this
“
Note
”).
1.
Automatic
Exchange of Principal and Interest into Qualified Financing
.
The
outstanding principal amount of this Note together with all accrued but unpaid
interest hereunder (the “
Outstanding
Balance
”),
shall
automatically, without any action on the part of the Payee or the Company be
exchanged into securities issued in an Equity Financing (as defined below)
or a
combination of Equity Financings following the Issuance Date with gross proceeds
totaling at least $5,660,000 (the “
Qualified
Financing
”)
;
provided
,
however
,
such
$5,660,000 shall be reduced by the principal amount represented by this Note
and
the Other Notes (as defined below) up to an aggregate maximum (together with
this Note) of $2,250,000 issued by the Company;
provided
,
further
,
that
for purposes of determining the number of
equity
securities, including warrants issued in such Qualified Financing,
to be
received by the Payee upon such exchange, the Payee shall be deemed to have
tendered 115% of the Outstanding Balance of this Note as payment of the purchase
price in the Qualified Financing. Upon such exchange pursuant to a Qualified
Financing, the Payee shall be deemed to be a purchaser in such Qualified
Financing and shall be granted all material rights afforded a purchaser in
the
Qualified Financing. For purposes of this Note, “
Equity
Financing
”
shall
mean the issuance and sale by the Company of its equity securities, or
securities convertible into its equity securities, the primary purpose of which
is to raise capital for the Company, provided, however, that an Equity Financing
shall not be deemed to include the following issuances: (1) shares of common
stock issuable or issued to employees, independent contractors, consultants,
directors or vendors of this Company directly or pursuant to a stock option
plan, restricted stock plan or other agreement approved by the Board of
Directors of this Company; (2) shares of common stock issued for the purpose
of
(I) a joint venture, technology licensing or research and development activity,
(II) distribution or manufacture of the Company’s products or services, or (III)
any other transaction involving a corporate partner that is primarily for a
purpose other than raising capital through the sale of equity securities; (3)
shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of shares of preferred stock;
(4) securities issued for the acquisition of another corporation by the Company
by merger, purchase of substantially all of the assets of such corporation
or
other reorganization; (5) securities issued as a dividend or distribution on
preferred stock; (6) securities issued as a dividend on common stock where
the
Company declares or pays a common stock dividend on the preferred stock in
the
same manner as declared or paid on the common stock; (7) shares of common stock
issuable or shares of preferred stock issuable upon conversion or exercise
of
options, warrants, notes or other securities or rights granted pursuant to
a
loan or commercial lease transaction; or (8) by way of dividend or other
distribution on shares of common stock excluded from the definition of
additional stock by the foregoing clauses (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7),
or
this clause (8). Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall give the Payee
at
least 10 business days’ prior written notice of a Qualified Financing and shall
honor all Conversion Notices delivered by the Payee prior to the date of such
Qualified Financing. If a Qualified Financing is comprised of a combination
of
Equity Financings, the Payee may elect the Equity Financing into which the
Outstanding Balance automatically converts, provided that such Equity Financing
has gross proceeds totaling at least $1 million (exclusive of the conversion
of
the Outstanding Balance). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the Platinum Follow-On Investment and the issuance of the Other Notes
shall not be deemed to be an Equity Financing hereunder.
2.
Voluntary
Conversion of Principal and Interest
.
Subject
to the terms of this Section 2, the Payee shall have the right, prior to the
Maturity Date, at the Payee’s sole option, to convert the Outstanding Balance
(the “
Conversion
Option
”)
into
such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common
stock (the “
Conversion
Shares
”)
as is
determined in accordance with the following formula: the Outstanding Balance
divided
by
$0.50
(the “
Conversion
Price
”).
If
the Payee desires to exercise the Conversion Option, the Payee shall, by
personal delivery or nationally-recognized overnight carrier, surrender the
original of this Note and give written notice to the Company (the “
Conversion
Notice
”),
which
Conversion Notice shall (a) state the Payee’s election to exercise the
Conversion Option, and (b) provide for a representation and
warranty
of the Payee to the Company that, as of the date of the Conversion Notice,
the
Payee has not assigned or otherwise transferred all or any portion of the
Payee’s rights under this Note to any third parties. The Company shall, as soon
as practicable thereafter, but in no event greater than seven (7) business
days,
issue and deliver to the Payee the number of Conversion Shares to which the
Payee shall be entitled upon exercise of the Conversion Option.
3.
Mandatory
Conversion of Principal and Interest
.
Subject
to an effective registration statement covering all of the Conversion Shares,
if
the closing bid price of the Company's common stock is equal to or greater
than
250% of the Conversion Price for ten (10) consecutive trading days, then the
Outstanding Balance shall be automatically converted, without any action on
the
part of the Payee or the Company, into Conversion Shares as is determined in
accordance with the following formula: the Outstanding Balance
divided
by
the
Conversion Price.
4.
Seniority
and Ranking; Covenants
.
This
Note shall rank senior to the Company’s currently issued and outstanding
indebtedness and equity securities; provided, however, this Note shall rank
pari-passu with respect to certain other senior secured convertible promissory
notes of the Company of like tenor herewith and on substantially the same terms
hereof (including, without limitation, with respect to conversion price) (the
“
Other
Notes
”),
in an
aggregate principal amount not to exceed $2,250,000, inclusive of this Note
and
excluding the PIK Notes (as defined below in Section 5(b)) (this Note together
with the Other Notes and the PIK Notes shall be referred to as the “
Notes
”).
The
Company may not issue any new indebtedness while at least 50% of the original
principal amount of the issued Notes in the aggregate remain outstanding, other
than the PIK Notes, the Other Notes and indebtedness incurred in the ordinary
course of business, without the consent of the holders of at least 75% of the
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. Further, the Company agrees
that, for so long as this Note is outstanding, without the consent of the
holders of at least 75% of the principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes:
(a)
the
Company shall not enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any
liens, security interests, charges, claims or other encumbrances of any kind
(collectively, “Liens”) on or with respect to any of its assets now owned or
hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom
other than (i) Liens for taxes, assessments and other governmental charges
or

Most
Favored Nations Exchange Right.

such
exchange, the Payee shall be deemed to have tendered 115% of the Outstanding
Balance of this Note as payment of the purchase price in such financing.

Certain
Conversion Restrictions.
(a)
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Note, at no time may a Payee of
this
Note convert this Note if the number of shares of the Company’s common stock to
be issued pursuant to such conversion would cause the number of shares of the
Company’s common stock beneficially owned by the Payee at such time to exceed,
when aggregated with all other shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially
owned by such Payee at such time, the number of shares of the Common Stock
which
would result in such Payee beneficially owning (as determined in accordance
with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) in excess of 4.99%
of all of the Company’s common stock outstanding at such time; provided,
however, that upon the Payee of this Note providing the Company with sixty-one
(61) days notice (pursuant to Section 17 hereof) (the “
4.99%
Waiver Notice
”)
that
such Payee would like to waive this Section 8(a) with regard to any or all
shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, this
Section 8(a) will be of no force or effect with regard to all or a portion
of
this Note referenced in the 4.99% Waiver Notice.
(b)
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Note, at no time may a Payee of
this
Note convert this Note if the number of shares of the Company’s common stock to
be issued pursuant to such conversion would cause the number of shares of the
Company’s common stock beneficially owned by the Payee at such time to exceed,
when aggregated with all other shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially
owned by such Payee at such time, the number of shares of the Common Stock
which
would result in such Payee beneficially owning (as determined in accordance
with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) in excess of 9.99%
of all of the Company’s common stock outstanding at such time; provided,
however, that upon the Payee of this Note providing the Company with sixty-one
(61) days notice (pursuant to Section 17 hereof) (the “
9.99%
Waiver Notice
”)
that
such Payee would like to waive this Section 8(b) with regard to any or all
shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, this
Section 8(b) will be of no force or effect with regard to all or a portion
of
this Note referenced in the 9.99% Waiver Notice.

In
the
event of an automatic exchange pursuant to Section 1 hereof or a mandatory
conversion pursuant to Section 3 hereof, if the Payee would beneficially own,
upon such conversion or exchange, as the case may be, when aggregated with
all
other shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned by such Payee at
such time, the number of shares of he Company’s common stock which would result
in such Payee beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section
13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) in excess of 4.99% or 9.99%
of all of the Company’s common stock outstanding at such time, the Payee shall
be issued (i) the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, rounded to the
nearest whole share, that would bring such Holder’s beneficial ownership of
share of the Company’s common stock as close to, but not exceeding 4.99% or
9.99%, as the case may be, and (ii) shares of series of convertible preferred
stock with a nominal liquidation preference substantially in the form attached
hereto as
Exhibit
A
,
convertible into the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the
difference between the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock
to be issued to such Holder pursuant to the automatic exchange pursuant to
Section 1 or a mandatory conversion pursuant to Section 3 as the case may be,
and the actual number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued in
accordance with this Section 8(c)(i).

(b)
Method
of Exercise
.
The
Holder hereof may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by the surrender
of this Warrant (with the exercise form attached hereto duly executed) at the
principal office of the Issuer, and by the payment to the Issuer of an amount
of

of
one share of Common Stock is greater than the Warrant Price (at the date of
calculation as set forth below) and a registration statement under the

the
Per Share Market Value of one share of Common
Stock.

event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant in accordance
with and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) certificates for the
shares of Warrant Stock so purchased shall be dated the date of such exercise
and delivered to the Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding
five
(5) Trading Days after such exercise or, at the request of the Holder (provided
that a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale
of the Warrant Stock is then in effect), issued and delivered to the Depository
Trust Company (“
DTC
”)
account on the Holder’s behalf via the Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission

of Warrant Stock, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then
have
been exercised (less any amount thereof which shall have been canceled in
payment or partial payment of the Warrant Price as hereinabove provided) shall
also be issued to the Holder hereof at the Issuer’s expense within such
time.
(e)
Transferability
of Warrant

to Section 2(g), this Warrant may be transferred by a Holder without the consent
of the Issuer. If transferred pursuant to this paragraph and subject to the
provisions of subsection (g) of this Section 2, this Warrant may be transferred
on the books of the Issuer by the Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized
attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer,
properly endorsed (by the Holder executing an assignment in the form attached
hereto) and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental
charge imposed upon such transfer. This Warrant is exchangeable at the principal
office of the Issuer for Warrants for the purchase of the same aggregate number
of shares of Warrant Stock, each new Warrant to represent the right to purchase
such number of shares of Warrant Stock as the Holder hereof shall designate
at
the time of such exchange. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall
be dated the Original Issue Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except
as to the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable pursuant
hereto.
(f)
Continuing
Rights of Holder
.
The
Issuer will, at the time of or at any time after each exercise of this Warrant,
upon the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing the extent, if
any, of its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder all rights to which
such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance
with
the terms of this Warrant,
provided
that if
any such Holder shall fail to make any such request, the failure shall not
affect the continuing obligation of the Issuer to afford such rights to such
Holder.
(g)
Compliance
with Securities Laws.
(i)
The
Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant
or
the shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired
solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party,
and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise
dispose of this Warrant or any shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon
exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or
an
exemption from registration, under the Securities Act and any applicable state
securities laws.
(ii)
Except
as
provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Warrant and all certificates
representing shares of Warrant Stock issued upon exercise hereof shall be
stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following
form:
THIS
WARRANT AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “
SECURITIES
ACT
”)
OR ANY
STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED
OF
UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS OR QUANTRX BIOMEDICAL CORPORATION SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF ITS
COUNSEL THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER
THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.
(iii)
The
Issuer agrees to reissue this Warrant or certificates representing any of the
Warrant Stock, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to
making any transfer of any such securities, the Holder shall give written notice
to the Issuer describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal
as
the Issuer may reasonably request. Such proposed transfer and removal will
not
be effected until: (a) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that the registration
of
such securities under the Securities Act is not required in connection with
such
proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act
covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Issuer with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and has become effective under the Securities
Act, (iii) the Issuer has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to
the
Issuer that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and
state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the Holder provides the Issuer
with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule
144
under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion
of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that
registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any
state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii)
compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected
or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Issuer will respond to
any
such notice from a holder within ten (10) business days. In the case of any
proposed transfer under this Section 2(g), the Issuer will use reasonable
efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws,
but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state
where it is not then qualified, or (y) to take any action that would subject
it
to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then
subject. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 2(g) shall
be in
addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer
contained in any other section of this Warrant.
(h)
In
no
event may the Holder exercise this Warrant in whole or in part unless the Holder
is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities
Act.
3.
Stock
Fully Paid; Reservation and Listing of Shares; Covenants
.
(a)
Stock
Fully Paid
.
The
Issuer represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that all shares of Warrant
Stock that may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant or otherwise
hereunder will, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid
and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by or
through the Issuer. The Issuer further covenants and agrees that during the
period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Issuer will at all times
have authorized and reserved for the purpose of the issue upon exercise of
this
Warrant a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the
exercise of this Warrant.
(b)
Reservation
.
If any
shares of Common Stock required to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of
this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder require registration or
qualification with any governmental authority under any federal or state law
before such shares may be so issued, the Issuer will in good faith use its
best
efforts as expeditiously as possible at its expense to cause such shares to
be
duly registered or qualified. If the Issuer shall list any shares of Common
Stock on any securities exchange or market it will, at its expense, list
thereon, maintain and increase when necessary such listing, of, all shares
of
Warrant Stock from time to time issued upon exercise of this Warrant or as
otherwise provided hereunder, and, to the extent permissible under the
applicable securities exchange rules, all unissued shares of Warrant Stock
which
are at any time issuable hereunder, so long as any shares of Common Stock shall
be so listed. The Issuer will also so list on each securities exchange or
market, and will maintain such listing of, any other securities which the Holder
of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant
if at the time any securities of the same class shall be listed on such
securities exchange or market by the Issuer.
(c)
Covenants
.
The
Issuer shall not by any action including, without limitation, amending the
Articles of Incorporation or the by-laws of the Issuer, or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue
or
sale of securities or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or
performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such
actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holder
hereof.
(d)
Loss,
Theft, Destruction of Warrants
.
Upon
receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Issuer of the ownership of and the
loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such
loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security satisfactory
to the Issuer or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of such Warrant, the Issuer will make and deliver, in lieu of
such
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and
representing the right to purchase the same number of shares of Common
Stock.
4.
Adjustment
of Warrant Price and Warrant Share Number
.
The
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, and
the
price at which such shares may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant,
shall
be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4.
The
Issuer shall give the Holder notice of any event described below which requires
an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 in accordance with Section
5.
(a)
Recapitalization,
Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale
.
(i)
In
case the Issuer after the Original Issue Date shall do any of the following
(each, a “
Triggering
Event
”):
(a)
consolidate with or merge into any other Person and the Issuer shall not be
the
continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, or (b)
permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the Issuer and the
Issuer shall be the continuing or surviving Person but, in connection with
such
consolidation or merger, any Capital Stock of the Issuer shall be changed into
or exchanged for Securities of any other Person or cash or any other property,
or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any
other Person, or (d) effect a capital reorganization or reclassification of
its
Capital Stock, then, and in the case of each such Triggering Event, proper
provision shall be made so that, upon the basis and the terms and in the manner
provided in this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled upon
the
exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such Triggering Event,
to
the extent this Warrant is not exercised prior to such Triggering Event, to
receive at the Warrant Price in effect at the time immediately prior to the
consummation of such Triggering Event in lieu of the Common Stock issuable
upon
such exercise of this Warrant prior to such Triggering Event, the Securities,
cash and property to which such Holder would have been entitled upon the
consummation of such Triggering Event if such Holder had exercised the rights
represented by this Warrant immediately prior thereto, subject to adjustments
(subsequent to such corporate action) as nearly equivalent as possible to the
adjustments provided for elsewhere in this Section 4.
(ii)
Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Warrant to the contrary, the Issuer will not effect
any Triggering Event if, prior to the consummation thereof, each Person (other
than the Issuer) which may be required to deliver any Securities, cash or
property upon the exercise of this Warrant as provided herein shall assume,
by
written instrument delivered to, and reasonably satisfactory to, the Holder
of
this Warrant, (A) the obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant (and if
the
Issuer shall survive the consummation of such Triggering Event, such assumption
shall be in addition to, and shall not release the Issuer from, any continuing
obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant) and (B) the obligation to deliver
to such Holder such shares of Securities, cash or property as, in accordance
with the foregoing provisions of this subsection (a), such Holder shall be
entitled to receive, and such Person shall have similarly delivered to such
Holder an opinion of counsel for such Person stating that this Warrant shall
thereafter continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof (including,
without limitation, all of the provisions of this subsection (a)) shall be
applicable to the Securities, cash or property which such Person may be required
to deliver upon any exercise of this Warrant or the exercise of any rights
pursuant hereto.
(b)
Stock
Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations
.
If at
any time the Issuer shall:
(i)
take
a
record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them
to
receive a dividend payable in, or other distribution of, Additional Shares
of
Common Stock,
(ii)
subdivide
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common
Stock, or
(iii)
combine
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common
Stock,
then
(1)
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal
the number of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same number
of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior
to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the
happening of such event, and (2) the Warrant Price then in effect shall be
adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect multiplied by the number
of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately
prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock
for
which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such
adjustment.
(c)
Certain
Other Distributions
.
If at
any time the Issuer shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock
for
the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or other distribution
of:
(i)
cash
(other than a cash dividend payable out of earnings or earned surplus legally
available for the payment of dividends under the laws of the jurisdiction of
incorporation of the Issuer),
(ii)
any
evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other
securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Common Stock
Equivalents or Additional Shares of Common Stock), or
(iii)
any
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its
indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or
property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Common Stock Equivalents
or
Additional Shares of Common Stock),
then
(1)
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
shall
be adjusted to equal the product of the number of shares of Common Stock for
which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment
multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the Per Share
Market Value of Common Stock at the date of taking such record and (B) the
denominator of which shall be such Per Share Market Value minus the amount
allocable to one share of Common Stock of any such cash so distributable and
of
the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Issuer and supported by an opinion from an investment banking firm of recognized
national standing acceptable to the Holder) of any and all such evidences of
indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or warrants or
other
subscription or purchase rights so distributable, and (2) the Warrant Price
then
in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect
multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after
such adjustment. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change
in
par value, or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value)
into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of stock shall be
deemed a distribution by the Issuer to the holders of its Common Stock of such
shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section 4(c)
and,
if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a larger or
smaller number of shares of Common Stock as a part of such reclassification,
such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be,
of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning of Section
4(b).
(d)
Issuance
of Additional Shares of Common Stock
.
(i)
In
the
event the Issuer shall at any time following the Original Issue Date issue
any
Additional Shares of Common Stock (otherwise than as provided in the foregoing
subsections (a) through (c) of this Section 4), at a price per share less than
the Warrant Price then in effect or without consideration, then the Warrant
Price upon each such issuance shall be adjusted to that price determined by
multiplying the Warrant Price then in effect by a fraction:
(A)
the
numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (x) the number of shares of
Outstanding Common Stock immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional
Shares of Common Stock
plus
(y) the
number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) which
the
aggregate consideration for the total number of such Additional Shares of Common
Stock so issued would purchase at a price per share equal to the Warrant Price
then in effect, and
(B)
the
denominator of which shall be equal to the number of shares of Outstanding
Common Stock immediately after the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common
Stock.
(ii)
No
adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant shall
be exercisable shall be made under paragraph (i) of Section 4(d) upon the
issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock which are issued pursuant
to
the exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents, if any such adjustment shall
previously have been made upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents
or
upon the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefor pursuant to Sections
4(e) or 4(f), or in connection with any Permitted Issuances.
(e)
Issuance
of Warrants or Other Rights
.
If at
any time the Issuer shall take a record of the Holders of its Common Stock
for
the purpose of entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any
manner (whether directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Issuer is
the
surviving corporation) issue or sell any warrants or options, whether or not
immediately exercisable, and the Warrant Consideration (hereafter defined)
per
share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such warrant
or
option shall be less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to
the
time of such issue or sale, then the Warrant Price then in effect immediately
prior to the time of such issue or sale, shall be adjusted to that price
(rounded to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Warrant Price by
a
fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (A) the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance or
sale
of such warrants or options
plus
(B) the
number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) which
the
Warrant Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all such warrants or options, would
purchase at a price per share equal to the Warrant Price then in effect, and
(2)
the denominator of which shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock
that would be outstanding assuming the exercise or conversion of all such
warrants and options. No adjustments of the Warrant Price then in effect shall
be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock or of such Common Stock
Equivalents upon exercise of such warrants or other rights or upon the actual
issue of such Common Stock upon such conversion or exchange of such Common
Stock
Equivalents if adjustment has been previously made pursuant to this section.
No
adjustments of the Warrant Price shall be required under this Section 4(e)
in
connection with any Permitted Issuances.
(f)
Issuance
of Common Stock Equivalents
.
If at
any time the Issuer shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock
for
the purpose of entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any
manner (whether directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Issuer is
the
surviving corporation) issue or sell, any Common Stock Equivalents, whether
or
not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable,
and the Common Stock Equivalent Consideration (hereafter defined) per share
for
which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be less
than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue
or
sale, then the Warrant Price then in effect immediately prior to the time of
such issue or sale, shall upon each such issuance or sale be adjusted to that
price (rounded to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Warrant Price
by a fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (A)
the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance
or sale of such Common Stock Equivalents
plus
(B) the
number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) which
the
Common Stock Equivalent Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all such Common Stock
Equivalents, would purchase at a price per share equal to the Warrant Price
then
in effect, and (2) the denominator of which shall be equal to the number of
shares of Common Stock that would be outstanding assuming the exercise or
conversion of all such Common Stock Equivalents. No further adjustment of the
Warrant Price then in effect shall be made under this Section 4(f) upon the
issuance of any Common Stock Equivalents which are issued pursuant to the
exercise of any warrants or other subscription or purchase rights therefor,
if
any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such
warrants or other rights pursuant to Section 4(e). No further adjustments of
the
Warrant Price then in effect shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common
Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents if adjustment
shall have been previously made pursuant to this section. No adjustments of
the
Warrant Price shall be required under this Section 4(f) in connection with
any
Permitted Issuances.
(g)
Superseding
Adjustment
.
If, at
any time after any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall have
been
made pursuant to Section 4(e) or Section 4(f) as the result of any issuance
of
warrants, other rights or Common Stock Equivalents, and (i) such warrants or
other rights, or the right of conversion or exchange in such other Common Stock
Equivalents, shall expire, and all or a portion of such warrants or other
rights, or the right of conversion or exchange with respect to all or a portion
of such other Common Stock Equivalents, as the case may be shall not have been
exercised, or (ii) the consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock
are issuable pursuant to such Common Stock Equivalents, shall be increased
solely by virtue of provisions therein contained for an automatic increase
in
such consideration per share upon the occurrence of a specified date or event,
then for each outstanding Warrant such previous adjustment shall be rescinded
and annulled and the Additional Shares of Common Stock which were deemed to
have
been issued by virtue of the computation made in connection with the adjustment
so rescinded and annulled shall no longer be deemed to have been issued by
virtue of such computation. Upon the occurrence of an event set forth in this
Section 4(g) above, there shall be a recomputation made of the effect of such
Common Stock Equivalents on the basis of: (i) treating the number of Additional
Shares of Common Stock or other property, if any, theretofore actually issued
or
issuable pursuant to the previous exercise of any such warrants or other rights
or any such right of conversion or exchange, as having been issued on the date
or dates of any such exercise and for the consideration actually received and
receivable therefor, and (ii) treating any such Common Stock Equivalents which
then remain outstanding as having been granted or issued immediately after
the
time of such increase of the consideration per share for which shares of Common
Stock or other property are issuable under such Common Stock Equivalents;
whereupon a new adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made,
which new adjustment shall supersede the previous adjustment so rescinded and
annulled.
(h)
Purchase
of Common Stock by the Issuer
.
If the
Issuer at any time while this Warrant is outstanding shall, directly or
indirectly through a Subsidiary or otherwise, purchase, redeem or otherwise
acquire any shares of Common Stock at a price per share greater than the Per
Share Market Value, then the Warrant Price upon each such purchase, redemption
or acquisition shall be adjusted to that price determined by multiplying such
Warrant Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the number
of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such purchase,
redemption or acquisition minus the number of shares of Common Stock which
the
aggregate consideration for the total number of such shares of Common Stock
so
purchased, redeemed or acquired would purchase at the Per Share Market Value;
and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such purchase, redemption or acquisition. For
the
purposes of this subsection (h), the date as of which the Per Share Market
Price
shall be computed shall be the earlier of (x) the date on which the Issuer
shall
enter into a firm contract for the purchase, redemption or acquisition of such
Common Stock, or (y) the date of actual purchase, redemption or acquisition
of
such Common Stock. For the purposes of this subsection (h), a purchase,
redemption or acquisition of a Common Stock Equivalent shall be deemed to be
a
purchase of the underlying Common Stock, and the computation herein required
shall be made on the basis of the full exercise, conversion or exchange of
such
Common Stock Equivalent on the date as of which such computation is required
hereby to be made, whether or not such Common Stock Equivalent is actually
exercisable, convertible or exchangeable on such date.
(i)
Other
Provisions applicable to Adjustments under this Section
.
The
following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and
the
Warrant Price then in effect provided for in this Section 4:
(i)
Computation
of Consideration
.
To the
extent that any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock
Equivalents (or any warrants or other rights therefor) shall be issued for
cash
consideration, the consideration received by the Issuer therefor shall be the
amount of the cash received by the Issuer therefor, or, if such Additional
Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are offered by the Issuer
for
subscription, the subscription price, or, if such Additional Shares of Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are sold to underwriters or dealers for public
offering without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price
(in
any such case subtracting any amounts paid or receivable for accrued interest
or
accrued dividends and without taking into account any compensation, discounts
or
expenses paid or incurred by the Issuer for and in the underwriting of, or
otherwise in connection with, the issuance thereof). To the extent that such
issuance shall be for a consideration other than cash, then, except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, the amount of such consideration shall be deemed
to be the fair value of such consideration at the time of such issuance as
de-termined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer. The
consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to
any
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase the same shall be the
consideration received by the Issuer for issuing such warrants or other rights
divided by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise
of
such warrant or right plus the additional consideration payable to the Issuer
upon exercise of such warrant or other right for one share of Common Stock
(together the “
Warrant
Consideration
”).
The
consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to
the
terms of any Common Stock Equivalents shall be the consideration received by
the
Issuer for issuing such Common Stock Equivalent, divided by the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or other exercise of such Common
Stock Equivalent, plus the additional consideration, if any, payable to the
Issuer upon the exercise of the right of conversion or exchange in such Common
Stock Equivalent for one share of Common Stock (together the “
Common
Stock Equivalent Consideration

meetings of stockholders or of any other proceedings of the Issuer, except
as
provided in this Warrant.
20.
Piggyback
Registration.
If the
Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the
Securities Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the
account of other security holders or both (except with respect to registration
statements on Forms S-4 or S-8 or another form not available for registering
the
registrable securities for sale to the public), it will give written notice
to
the Holder of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of the Holder,
received by the Company within 30 days after the giving of any such notice
by
the Company, to register any of the Holder’s Warrant Shares, the Company will
use reasonable best efforts to cause the Holder’s Warrant Shares as to which
registration shall have been so requested to be included in the securities
to be
covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company.
If
any registration pursuant to this Section 20 shall be, in whole or in part,
an
underwritten public offering of Common Stock, the number of the Holder’s Warrant
Shares to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced on a pari passu
basis, or eliminated entirely, if and to the extent that the managing
underwriter shall be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect
the marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company. At such time that
the
underlying shares issued upon exercise of th
is
warrants are eligible to be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or its successor
provisions) under the Securities Act, this section shall no longer
apply.

The

upon exercise of the exchange rights of the Lender set forth in Section 7 of
such surrender note. On or before February 13, 2008, the Lender may, in its
discretion, elect to make an additional loan (the “

in the
amount of $500,000, which additional loan shall be on substantially the same
terms as the Loan hereunder (including with respect to Section 2(b) below)
and
evidenced by a senior secured convertible promissory note in substantially
the
form of the Note (and be deemed an “Other Note” hereunder and under the Note).
b.
Warrants
.
In
consideration for the Loan, for each $100,000 of new principal loaned to the
Borrower by the Lender (including the Platinum Follow-On Investment, if made),
the Borrower shall issue to the Lender a warrant (the “
Warrant
”),
in
the form attached hereto as

defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended

a.
The
Borrower has been duly incorporated and is validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the state of Nevada, with full corporate power and authority
to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as
currently conducted.
The
Borrower is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good
standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature
of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary and where
the
failure so to qualify would have a Material Adverse Effect. “
Material
Adverse Effect
”
means
any material adverse effect on the ability of the Borrower to perform its
obligations hereunder or under the Loan Documents or on the business,
operations, properties or financial condition of the Borrower.
b.
Each
of
the Loan Documents has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered
on
behalf of the Borrower and is a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower
enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject to
limitations on enforcement by general principles of equity and by bankruptcy
or
other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and the
Borrower has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement
and
the Loan Documents and to perform its obligations hereunder and
thereunder.
c.
The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Loan Documents
will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach of or a default under any
of
the terms or provisions of (A) the Borrower’s articles of incorporation or

trust
or other material agreement or instrument to which the Borrower is a party
or by
which it or any of its material properties or assets is bound, (ii) result
in a
violation of any material provision of any law, statute, rule, regulation,
or
any existing applicable decree, judgment or order by any court, Federal or
state
regulatory body, administrative agency, or other governmental body having
jurisdiction over the Borrower, or any of its material properties or assets
or
(iii) result in the creation or imposition of any material lien, charge or
encumbrance upon any material property or assets of the Borrower or any of
its
subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any agreement or instrument to which
any
of them is a party or by which any of them may be bound or to which any of
their
property or any of them is subject, except, in the cases of (i), (ii) and (iii)
above, as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
d.
No
consent, approval or authorization of or designation, declaration or filing
with
any governmental authority on the part of the Borrower is required in connection
with the valid execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Loan
Documents.
5.
Miscellaneous
.
a.
The
Borrower has executed and delivered to the Lender a Stock Pledge Agreement
(the
“
Pledge
Agreement
”),
substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit
C
,
and the
Patent, Trademark and Copyright Security Agreement (the “
IP
Security Agreement
”
and,
together with the Pledge Agreement, the “
Security
Documents
”),
substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit
D
,
together with all certificates and documentation required under each such
document (including, without limitation, stock certificates and stock powers
referenced therein).
The
Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to file any UCC financing statements
evidencing the security interests granted in the Security
Documents.
b.
In
the
event that Other Notes (as defined in the Note) are issued, the security
interest granted pursuant to the Security Documents shall be deemed to be
granted pro rata for the benefit of the Lender and each purchaser of such Other
Notes (collectively, and together with the Lender, the “
Purchasers
”)
pro
rata, based on the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, PIK Notes (as
defined in the Notes) and Other Notes (collectively, the “
Notes
”)
held
by each Purchaser. The Borrower shall not issue any Other Notes unless the
Purchaser(s) of such Other Notes shall have agreed to the terms set forth below
regarding the Collateral Agent (as defined below):
i.
Each
Purchaser shall be deemed to appoint the Lender as the Collateral Agent under
the Security Documents (the “
Collateral
Agent
”)
and
each Purchaser authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent
on
its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Security Documents as are
delegated to the Collateral Agent under such agreements and to exercise such
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing,
each Secured Party hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to execute and
deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the documents to which
the Collateral Agent is a party relating to security for the obligations under
the Notes, to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Collateral
Agent
may have under such Security Documents and, in the case of the Security
Documents, to act as agent for the Purchasers under such Loan
Documents.
ii.
The
Collateral Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any
action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be
fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions
of
the Purchasers holding at least 51% of the aggregate amount of the Notes then
outstanding, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Purchasers;
provided
,
however
,
that
the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the
Collateral Agent in good faith believes exposes it to personal liability unless
the Collateral Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the
Purchasers with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement
or
applicable law.
iii.
In
performing its functions and duties under the Security Documents and the other
documents required to be executed or delivered in connection therewith, the
Collateral Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Purchasers and its duties
are
entirely administrative in nature. The Collateral Agent does not assume and
shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation other than as expressly
set
forth herein. The Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties under any
Security Document by or through its agents or employees.
iv.
None
of
the Collateral Agent, any of its affiliates or any of their respective
directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken
or
omitted to be taken by it, him, her or them under or in connection with the
Security Documents, except for its, his, her or their own gross negligence
or
willful misconduct.
v.
Each
Secured Party acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance
upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party conduct its own independent
investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Company and its
Subsidiaries in connection with the issuance of the Securities. Each Secured
Party also acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon
the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party and based on such documents
and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its
own
credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and other
Loan Documents.
vi.
Each
Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent and each of its affiliates,
and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors
(to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), from any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses and disbursements (including fees, expenses and disbursements of
financial and legal advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Collateral Agent or any of
its
affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors in any way
relating to or arising out of the Security Documents or any action taken or
omitted by the Collateral Agent under the Security Documents or the document
related thereto;
provided
,
however
,
that no
Purchaser shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements resulting from the Collateral Agent’s or such Affiliate’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct.
vii.
The
Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to
the
Purchasers and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Purchasers shall
have
the right to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If no successor Collateral
Agent shall have been so appointed by the Purchasers, and shall have accepted
such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent’s giving of
notice of resignation, then the retiring Collateral Agent may, on behalf of
the
Purchasers, appoint a successor Collateral Agent, selected from among the
Purchasers. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent by a
successor Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall succeed to,
and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Loan Documents and
any
other documents required to be executed or delivered in connection therewith.
Prior to any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral
Agent, the retiring Collateral Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably
necessary to assign to the successor Collateral Agent its rights as Collateral
Agent under the Loan Documents. After such resignation, the retiring Collateral
Agent shall continue to have the benefit of this Agreement as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Collateral Agent under this
Agreement, the Security Documents and any other documents required to be
executed or delivered in connection therewith.
viii.
Each
Purchaser agrees that any action taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other document relating thereto,
and the exercise by the Collateral Agent or the Purchasers of the powers set
forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the
Purchasers.
ix.
Each
of
the Purchasers hereby directs, in accordance with the terms hereof, the
Collateral Agent to release (or in the case of clause (ii) below, release or
subordinate) any Lien held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Purchasers against any of the following: (i) all of the Collateral upon payment
and satisfaction in full of all obligations under the Notes and all other
obligations under the Loan Documents that the Collateral Agent has been notified
in writing are then due and payable; (ii) any assets that are subject to a
Lien;
and (iii) any part of the Collateral sold or disposed of by the Company if
such
sale or disposition is permitted by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
(or permitted pursuant to a waiver or consent of a transaction otherwise
prohibited by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents). Each of the
Purchasers hereby directs the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver or file
such termination and partial release statements and do such other things as
are
necessary to release Liens to be released pursuant to this Section promptly
upon
the effectiveness of any such release.
x.
Each
Purchaser acknowledges that the security interests evidenced by the Security

any
documents evidencing the Other Notes (including any agreements with Purchasers

Documents shall be terminated and of no further force and effect on and after

termination, Lender shall promptly return any collateral under the Security
Documents to the Company and take any action reasonably requested by the Company
to cause the release of the security interests created under the Security
Documents. In the event the Lender shall have funded the Platinum Follow-On
Investment, the security interests created under the Security Documents will
remain in full force and effect.

enforcement of the rights transferred to the Lender, under this Agreement or
the
rights associated with those Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights which are
in
Pledgor’s reasonable business judgment, necessary or desirable in the operation
of Pledgor’s business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
herein, it is understood and agreed that the Pledgor shall be permitted to
license the Collateral to the extent the same is permitted pursuant to the
terms
of the Notes.
5.
New
Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights
.
Pledgor
represents and warrants that the Patents, Trademarks, and Copyrights listed
on
Schedules A, B, and C, include all of the patents, patent applications,
trademark registrations, trademark applications, service marks registrations,
service mark applications, registered copyrights and copyright applications,
now
owned or held by Pledgor. If, prior to the termination of this Agreement,
Pledgor shall (i) create or obtain rights to any new patents, trademarks,
trademark registrations, trademark applications, trade names, trade styles,
service marks, service marks registrations, or service mark applications, or
(ii) become entitled to the benefit of any patent, trademark, trademark
registration, trademark application, trade name, trade style, service mark,
service mark registration, service mark application, the provisions of Section
1
above shall automatically apply thereto and Pledgor shall give the Lender prompt
written notice thereof. Pledgor hereby authorizes the Lender to modify this
Agreement by (a) amending Schedules A, B, and/or C, as the case may be, to
include any future patents, trademark registrations, trademark applications,
service mark registrations, service mark applications, registered copyrights
and
copyright applications that are Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights under Section
1 above, or under this Section 5 (whether or not any such notice from Pledgor
has been sent or received), and (b) filing, in addition to and not in
substitution for this Agreement, a supplement or addendum to this Agreement
containing on Schedule B therein, as the case may be, such registered
trademarks, trademark applications, service marks, registered service marks
and
service mark applications that are Trademarks under Section 1 above or this
Section 5 and to take any action the Lender otherwise deems appropriate to
perfect or maintain the rights and interest of the Lender, under this Agreement
with respect to such Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights.
6.
Nature
and Continuation of Security Interest; Notice to Third Parties
.
This
Agreement has the effect of giving third parties notice of the Lender’s Security
Interest in Pledgor’s Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights. This Agreement is made
for collateral security purposes only. This Agreement shall create a continuing
security interest in the Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights and shall remain
in
full force and effect until the Obligations of the Pledgor to the Lender have
been paid in full.
7.
Right
to Inspect; Assignments and Security Interests
.
The
Lender shall have the right, at any reasonable time upon prior written request
and from time to time, to inspect Pledgor’s premises and to examine Pledgor’s
books, records and operations relating to the Patents and the Trademarks,
including, without limitation, Pledgor’s quality control processes; provided,
that in conducting such inspections and examinations, the Lender shall use
reasonable efforts not to disturb unnecessarily the conduct of Plegor’s ordinary
business operations. From and after the occurrence of an event of default under
the Notes (an “Event of Default”), Pledgor agrees that the Lender, or a
conservator appointed by the Lender, shall have the right to take any action
to
renew or to apply for registration of any Trademarks as the Lender or said
conservator, on its sole judgment, may deem necessary or desirable in connection
with the enforcement of the Lender’s rights hereunder. Other than a license of
Collateral permitted under Section 4, Pledgor agrees not to sell or assign
its
respective interests in the Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights without the
prior written consent of the Lender.
8.
Duties
of Pledgor
.
Pledgor
shall have the duty to (i) prosecute diligently any patent application, or
trademark application or service mark application that is part of the Trademarks
pending as of the date hereof or thereafter until the termination of this
Agreement, and (ii) preserve and maintain all of Pledgor’s rights in the
patents, patent applications, trademark applications, service mark applications
and trademark and service mark registrations that are part of the Patents and
Trademarks. Any expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing shall be
borne by Pledgor. Pledgor shall not, without thirty (30) days prior written
notice to the Lender, abandon any trademark or service mark that is the subject
of a registered trademark, service mark or application therefor and which,
is or
shall be necessary or economically desirable in the operation of the Pledgor’s
business. The Lender shall not have any duty with respect to the Patents,
Trademarks and/or Copyrights. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Lender shall not be under any obligation to take any steps necessary to
preserve rights in the Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights against any other
parties, but may do so at its option during the continuance of an Event of
Default, and all expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be for the
sole
account of Pledgor and added to the Obligations and liabilities secured hereby
and by the Security Agreement.
9.
Lender’s
Right to Sue
.
Upon
(but not until) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, the Lender shall have the right, for the benefit of the Lender, to
exercise all rights and remedies available at law or in equity. From and after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender
shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to bring suit or take any
other action to enforce the Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights and, if the
Lender shall commence any such suit or take any such action, Pledgor shall,
at
the request of the Lender, do any and all reasonable lawful acts and execute
any
and all proper documents reasonably required by the Lender in aid of such
enforcement. Pledgor shall, upon demand, promptly reimburse and indemnify the
Lender for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the
Lender in the exercise of its rights under this Section 9 (including, without
limitation, all attorneys’ fees). If, for any reason whatsoever, the Lender is
not reimbursed with respect to the costs and expenses referred to in the
preceding sentence, such costs and expenses shall be added to the Obligations
secured hereby and by the Security Agreement.
10.
Waivers
.
The
Pledgor waives to the extent permitted by applicable law presentment, demand,
notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of any loans
made, credit or other extensions granted, collateral received or delivered
or
any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices
of
any description, except for such demands and notices as are expressly required
to be provided to the Pledgor under this Agreement or any other document
evidencing the Obligations or the liabilities under the Notes. With respect
to
both the Obligations and any Collateral, the Pledgor assents to any extension
or
postponement of the time of payment or any other forgiveness or indulgence,
to
any substitution, exchange or release of Collateral, to the addition or release
of any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to the acceptance of
partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromise or adjustment of any
thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Lender may deem
advisable. The Lender may exercise its rights with respect to the Collateral
without resorting, or regard, to other collateral or sources of reimbursement
for Obligations. The Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights
with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver is in
writing and signed by the Lender. No delay or omission on the part of the Lender
in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other
right. A waiver on any one occasion shall not bar or waive the exercise of
any
right on any future occasion. All rights and remedies of the Lender in the
Obligations or the Collateral, whether evidenced hereby or by any other
instrument or papers, are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided
by law or any other agreement, and may be exercised separately or concurrently.
11.
Successors
and Assigns
.
This
Agreement shall be binding upon the Pledgor, its respective successors and
permitted assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
the
Lender and its successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing sentence, the Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any agreement
or
any note held by it evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection
with the Obligations, or sell participations in any interest therein, to any
other person or entity.
12.
General;
Term
.
(a)
This
Agreement may not be amended or modified except by a writing signed by the
Pledgor and the Lender, nor may the Pledgor assign any of its rights hereunder.
This Agreement and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof shall be construed
in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of New York (without
giving effect to any conflicts of law provisions contained therein). In the
event that any Collateral stands in the name of the Pledgor and another or
others jointly, as between the Lender and the Pledgor, the Lender may deal
with
the same for all purposes as if it belonged to or stood in the name of the
Pledgor alone.
(b)
This
Agreement and the security interests granted herein shall automatically, without
further action of the parties hereto, terminate on the earlier to occur of
(i)
February 14, 2008 (unless (A) an Event of Default (as defined in the Notes)
shall have occurred under the Notes and be continuing or (B) the Lender shall
have fully funded the Platinum Follow-On Investment (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement)) and (ii) the date on which all payments under the Notes have been
indefeasibly paid or satisfied in full (including as a result of the conversion
in full of the Notes). Upon such termination, the Lender shall promptly take
any
action reasonably requested by the Pledgor to cause the release of the security
interests created hereunder.
(c)
This
Agreement shall be subject to Section 5(b) of the Letter Loan Agreement, dated
as of January 23, 2008, between the Pledgor and the Lender (the “Purchase
Agreement”). If Other Notes are issued to persons other than the Lender, the
pledged Collateral identified herein shall be held for the ratable benefit
of
the Secured Party and such other persons as set forth in the Purchase
Agreement.
13.
Waiver
of Jury Trial; Venue
.
All
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of 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. The Pledgor agrees that all
proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents
(as
defined in the Purchase Agreement) and the Notes (whether brought against a
party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders,
partners, members, employees or agents) may be brought in the Courts of New
York
County, New York or of the United States of America for the Southern District
of
New York and hereby expressly submits to the personal jurisdiction and venue
of
such courts for the purposes thereof and expressly waives any claim of improper
venue and any claim that such courts are an inconvenient forum. Each of the
Pledgor and the Lender hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process
of
any of the aforementioned courts in any such suit, action or proceeding by
the
mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid,
at
the address in effect for notices to it under the Purchase Agreement, such
service to become effective 10 days after such mailing. Nothing in this Section
shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted
by law. Each of the Pledgor and the Lender hereby agree that the prevailing
party in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable legal fees from
the
non-prevailing party. The Pledgor and the Lender hereby waive all rights to
trial by jury.

Any
and
all proceeds of any of the foregoing upon the sale or other disposal of the

hereto.

Pledgor, the Pledgor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments
and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary,
or
that the Secured Party may reasonably request, in order to perfect any security

Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect

The
Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consequential
rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose
not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.
(ii)
The
Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all cash dividends

option with respect to, any of the Pledged Collateral, or create or permit

respect to any of the Pledged Collateral, except for the security interest
under
this Agreement.
Section
6
-
Secured
Party Appointed Attorney-in-Fact
.
The
Pledgor hereby appoints the Secured Party attorney-in-fact, with full authority
in the place and stead of the Pledgor and in the name of the Pledgor or
otherwise, to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Secured
Party may deem necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement,
including, without limitation, upon and during the continuation of any Event

Default, to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made payable to the
Pledgor representing any dividend, interest payment or other distribution in
respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge
for the same.
Section
7
-
Remedies
upon Default
.
If (but
only if) any Event of Default, as defined in the Notes, shall have occurred
and
be continuing:
(a)
Upon
written notice from the Secured Party, the right of Pledgor to receive dividends
and to vote the Pledged Shares shall cease, and all such rights shall become
vested in the Secured Party. In addition to other rights and remedies provided
for herein or otherwise available to it, the Secured Party may exercise all
the
rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Uniform Commercial
Code in effect in the State of New York at that time, and the Secured Party
may
also, without notice except as specified below, sell the Pledged Collateral
or
any part thereof, in accordance with and subject to applicable law, for cash,
on
credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as are commercially
reasonable. The Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged
Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.
(b)
Any
cash
held by the Secured Party as Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received
by the Secured Party from any sale of or collection from all or any part of
the
Pledged Collateral, may be held by the Secured Party as collateral for, and/or
be applied in whole or in part by the Secured Party against, all or any part
of
the Obligations. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by the Secured
Party and remaining after payment in full of all of the Obligations shall be
paid to the Pledgor.
(c)
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the Secured Party shall not take
any
action with respect to the Pledged Shares pursuant to an exercise of its rights
as a secured party hereunder unless the Secured Party shall have given the
Pledgor at least 120 days prior written notice of such action (which notice
shall not be given prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default);
provided
,
that
,
no such
prior written notice shall be required in connection with any action taken
by
the Secured Party reasonably necessary to perfect the security interest granted
hereby and protect its rights in and to the Pledged Shares.
Section
8
-
Enforcement
Rights
.
If the
Secured Party shall determine to exercise its right hereunder to sell all or
any
of the Pledged Collateral, the Pledgor agree(s) that, upon request of the
Secured Party, the Pledgor will do or cause to be done all such other acts
and
things as may be reasonably necessary to make such sale of the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with
applicable law. The Pledgor recognizes that the Secured Party may be limited
in
its ability to effect a sale to the public of all or part of the Pledged
Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions in the Securities Act of 1933,
as
amended, or other federal or state securities laws (collectively, the
“Securities Laws”), and may be compelled to resort to one or more sales to a
restricted group of purchasers who may be required to agree to acquire the
Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view
to
the distribution or resale thereof. The Pledgor agrees that sales so made may
be
at prices and on terms less favorable than if the Pledged Collateral were sold
to the public, and that the Secured Party has no obligation to delay the sale
of
any Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to register (or
otherwise qualify for an exemption with respect to) the Pledged Collateral
for
sale to the public under the Securities Laws. The Pledgor shall reasonably
cooperate with the Secured Party in its attempt to satisfy any requirements
under the Securities Laws.
Section
9
-
Security
Interest Absolute
.
All
rights of the Secured Party and security interest hereunder, and all obligations
of the Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective
of:
(i)
any
lack
of validity or enforceability of the Notes or any other document or agreement
delivered by the Pledgor or its affiliates in connection with the Notes (the
“Loan Documents”) or agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(ii)
any
change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of,
all
or any of the Obligations, or any amendment or waiver or any consent to any
departure from the Notes or any other Loan Document;
(iii)
any
exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release
or
amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any guaranty, for all
or
any of the obligations of the Pledgor under the Loan Documents; or
(iv)
any
other
circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a
discharge of the Pledgor, any other party to any Loan Document, or a third
party
obligor except for such waivers as are required by applicable law and cannot
be
waived under applicable law.
Section
10 -
Amendment
.
No
amendment or waiver of any provisions of this Agreement shall be effective
unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Secured Party and the
Pledgor, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
Section
11 -
Continuing
Security Interest; Transfer of Note(s)
.
This
Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral
and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the
Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations), (ii) be binding
upon
the Pledgor, its successors and assigns, and (iii) inure to the benefit of
the
Secured Party and its successors, transferees and assigns. Upon the earlier
to
occur of (i) February 14, 2008 (unless (A) an Event of Default (as defined
in
the Notes) shall have occurred under the Notes and be continuing or (B) the
Secured Party shall have fully funded the Platinum Follow-On Investment(as
defined in the Purchase Agreement)) and (ii) the payment in full of the
Obligations (including as a result of a conversion in full of the Notes) and
the
termination of any obligation of the Secured Party to extend any credit
thereunder, this Agreement shall automatically terminate without further action
on the part of either of the parties hereto and the Secured Party shall promptly
deliver such of the Pledged Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise
applied pursuant to the terms hereof to the Pledgor and take any action
reasonably requested by the Pledgor to cause the release of the security
interests created hereunder.
Section
12 -
Governing
Law; Terms
.
This
Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard
to the choice of law provisions thereof. The Pledgor agrees that any suit for
the enforcement of this Agreement may be brought in the courts of the State
of
New York or any federal court sitting in such state and consents to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of each such court and to service of process in
any
such suit being made upon the Pledgor by mail at the address specified above.
Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
respective meanings given in the Notes.
Section
13 -
Expenses
.
The
Pledgor will upon demand pay to the Secured Party the amount of any and all
reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel
and of any experts and agents, which the Secured Party may incur in connection
with (i) any amendment to, or consents or waivers requested under, this
Agreement, (ii) the custody or preservation of, or the sale, collection from,
or
other realization upon, any of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) the exercise or
enforcement of any of the rights of the Secured Party hereunder or (iv) the
failure by the Pledgor to perform or observe any of the provisions
hereof.
Section
14 -
Collateral
Agent
.
This
Agreement shall be subject to Section 5(b) of the Letter Loan Agreement, dated
as of January 23, 2008, between the Pledgor and the Secured Party (the “Purchase
Agreement”). If Other Notes are issued to persons other than the Secured Party,
the Pledged Collateral identified herein shall be held for the ratable benefit
of the Secured Party and such other persons as set forth in the Purchase
Agreement.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF

the
Pledgor and the Secured Party have executed and delivered this Pledge Agreement
as of the date first above written.
