The~~Form ~~Merger~~8-K ~~Agreement~~for ~~and~~an ~~the~~event ~~transactions~~of ~~contemplated~~November by4, ~~the Merger Agreement were also unanimously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors~~2010.

The Company has made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, to cause a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be held to consider the adoption of the Merger Agreement, and is required to observe certain limits on the conduct of its business between the date of the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the Merger. The Merger also is subject to fulfillment of customary closing conditions, including approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock and Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, on an “as converted” basis, voting as one class, and completion of the Merger by June 30, 2011. The stockholders will have statutory appraisal rights in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law.

In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that the Company is permitted to initiate, solicit and encourage alternative acquisition proposals from third parties and to provide information and engage in discussions with third parties regarding acquisition proposals until December 15, 2011 (the “Go-Shop Termination Date”). Prior to the Go-Shop Termination Date, KPMG Corporate Finance LLC will assist the Special Committee with respect to the solicitation and negotiation of acquisition proposals from third parties. The Special Committee retains full discretion as to how it will review and respond to any acquisition proposal.

As of the Go-Shop Termination Date, the Company becomes subject to customary “no-shop” restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative takeover proposals from third parties and to provide information to and engage in discussions with third parties regarding alternative takeover proposals.

The "no-shop" provision is subject to a customary "fiduciary-out" provision which provides that, prior to the time stockholder approval is obtained, the Company's Board of Directors may change its recommendation to the Company's stockholders or enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a takeover proposal, if and only if, prior to taking such action, the Company's Board of Directors has determined in good faith, after consultation with independent financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that (i) failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors' fiduciary duties under applicable law and (ii) such proposal is reasonably likely to be consummated in accordance with its terms, after taking into account all legal, regulatory and financial aspects of the proposal and the person making the proposal, and would be more favorable to the Company's stockholders from a financial point of view than the Merger (a "Superior Proposal”); provided, however, that (a) the Company has given Parent at least 48 hours prior written notice of its intention to take such action specifying the material terms and conditions of the Superior Proposal, including the identity of the party making such Superior Proposal, and has provided Parent a copy of the proposed transaction agreements, (b) the Company has negotiated in good faith with Parent during such notice period to enable Parent to propose changes to the terms of the Merger Agreement and other agreements so that the proposal is no longer a Superior Proposal, and (c) in the event of any material change to the material terms of the Superior Proposal, the Company has delivered to Parent an additional notice and the notice period shall have recommenced.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights and provides that upon the termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, the Company shall be required to pay all of Parent’s expenses, up to a maximum of $100,000, and a termination fee of $61,000; provided, that if Parent is entitled to both an expense reimbursement and a termination fee, the amount to be paid shall be limited to $100,000. The Company shall only be obligated to pay the Parent’s expenses if the Merger Agreement is terminated under specified circumstances. In the event that the Company prevails in an action for specific performance of the Merger Agreement, Parent shall reimburse the Company for its expenses in connection therewith up to a maximum of $50,000.

Parent is the Company’s senior secured lender. As of November 10, 2010, it had advanced approximately $4.3 million to the Company, exclusive of an additional $1.4 million of capitalized obligations owed to Parent. Parent holds a warrant exercisable into 40% of the Company’s common stock on a fully-diluted basis. Parent agreed in the Merger Agreement to limit its exercise of the warrant to not more than 40% of the Company’s voting stock as of the record date of the special stockholders meeting that will be held to approve the Merger, however, Parent retained the right to exercise the warrant, in whole or in part, for any purpose other than approval of the Merger and the Merger Agreement. The consummation of the Merger is not subject to a financing condition on the part of Parent or Merger Sub.

After the Merger, the Company will be a privately-held corporation. There will be no public market for the common stock and the Company will terminate the registration of its common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto. The Merger Agreement is included to provide investors and stockholders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company or the other parties thereto. The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants (a) that have been made only for the purposes of the Merger Agreement, (b) are qualified by information in disclosure schedules that the parties have exchanged in connection with signing the Merger Agreement, (c) are subject to materiality qualifications in the Agreement that may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors and stockholders, (d) were made only as of the date of the Merger Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Agreement and (e) have been included in the Merger Agreement for the purposes of allocating risk between the contracting parties rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, the Merger Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors and stockholders with information regarding the terms of the Agreement, and not to provide investors and stockholders with any other factual information regarding the Company or its business, or Parent or Merger Sub or their respective businesses. Accordingly, investors and stockholders should not rely on the representations, warranties, covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The Merger Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding the Company that is or will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the Forms 10-K, Forms 10-Q and the other documents that the Company files with the SEC.
