1.7 Conversion of Company Common Stock, Etc. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or the holders of the following securities:

(a) Subject to Section 1.7(b), each share of (i) the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Company Common Stock”) and (ii) the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of Company Common Stock or Series A Stock to be canceled and retired pursuant to Section 1.9) shall be converted automatically into the right to receive that number (expressed as a decimal) of fully paid and non-assessable (A) shares of common stock of Parent, par value $0.02 per share (the “Parent Common Stock”), (B) New Warrants (as more fully set forth in Section 1.13), (C) Escrow Shares (as more fully set forth in Section 1.8) and, as applicable, shares of Parent Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Parent Preferred Stock”), determined by multiplying each of (1) 17,250,000 plus the number of Additional Shares (as hereafter defined) and Exchanged Shares (as hereafter defined), if any, (2) 4,859,894 and (3) 7,100,000 by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be one and the denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock plus (y) the number of shares of Series A Stock, in each case issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (such fraction referred to as the “Common Stock Exchange Ratio”); provided, however, that the holders of Series A Stock who meet the Beneficial Ownership Condition (as hereafter defined) shall receive for each share of Series A Stock the same Merger Consideration as outlined above except that such holders shall receive a combination of Parent Common Stock as set forth in Section 1.7(a)(ii)(A) above and Parent Preferred Stock that is convertible into (or if the proposal to authorize Parent Preferred Stock is not approved, $.02 Warrants exercisable for) that number of shares of Parent Common Stock they would have received under Section 1.7(a)(ii)(A) if they had been a holder of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time in such amounts that would enable such holders, after giving effect to the Merger, to beneficially own no more than 9.99% of Parent Common Stock upon consummation of the Merger.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon consummation of the Merger, only those holders of Series A Stock who would, after giving effect to the Merger and receipt of the Merger Consideration, beneficially own more than 9.99% of Parent Common Stock (the “Beneficial Ownership Condition”) will receive Parent Preferred Stock or $.02 Warrants (as defined below), as applicable. Those holders of Series A Stock who do not meet the Beneficial Ownership Condition and will not receive Parent Preferred Stock or $.02 Warrants in accordance with the previous sentence, will receive Parent Common Stock as contemplated by Section 1.7(a)(ii)(A) and their share of the other types of Merger Consideration in exchange for their Series A Stock based on the Common Stock Exchange Ratio.

The shares of Parent Common Stock that are issuable upon conversion of the Parent Preferred Stock are referred to herein as the “Conversion Shares.” If Parent’s stockholders approve the issuance of the Merger Consideration, but do not approve the authorization of the Parent Preferred Stock, then the holders Series A Stock that satisfy the Beneficial Ownership Condition shall receive warrants to purchase Parent Common Stock (the “$.02 Warrants”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D hereto and in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.7.

9

The holders of Company Capital Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Company Capital Stock held by each of them were converted pursuant to this Section 1.7 upon delivery of the certificates representing such shares of Company Capital Stock to Parent. The shares of Parent Common Stock and Parent Preferred Stock, together with the Additional Shares, Exchanged Shares, Escrow Shares, New Warrants and the $.02 Warrants (if applicable) are collectively referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration.”

1.8 Escrow. At the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited with the Escrow Agent, 7,100,000 shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Escrow Shares”). The Escrow Shares shall be held in an escrow account in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and be released to the Company Stockholders (pro rata on a fully-diluted basis as of the Effective Time) if and when the closing price per share of Parent Common Stock exceeds $5.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and similar events) for 40 trading days within a continuous 90 trading day period following the Closing Date. If within one year following the Closing Date, such threshold is not achieved, the shares of Parent Common Stock constituting the Escrow Shares shall be canceled and extinguished and returned to the treasury of Parent.

1.9 Cancellation of Shares. At the Effective Time, each share of Company Capital Stock either held in the Company’s treasury or owned by Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary (as defined in Section 2.2(f)) of Parent or the Company, in each case, immediately prior to the Effective Time, if any, shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment therefor.

1.10 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Stock. The Merger Consideration to be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Company Capital Stock in accordance with the terms of this Article I shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Capital Stock under this Article I. If, after the Effective Time, Company Certificates are presented to Parent or Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

1.11 Company Stock Options and Warrants. At the Effective Time, there shall be no outstanding options or warrants to purchase capital stock of the Company.

10

1.12 Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of common stock of Merger Sub, no par value per share (the “Merger Sub Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, remain outstanding and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

1.13 Issuance of Parent Warrants. At the Effective Time, Parent will issue to the Company Stockholders (on a pro rata as-converted basis) an aggregate of 4,859,894 warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,859,894 shares of Parent Common Stock with an exercise price of $4.80 per share and a term of five (5) years after the Closing Date, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “New Warrants”).

1.14 Adjustments to Exchange Ratios and Share Amounts. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Common Stock Exchange Ratio, the number of each of the Conversion Shares, the number and exercise price of the New Warrants, the number of Additional Shares (including the purchase price therefor as set forth in Section 5.13(b)), the number of Exchanged Shares, the Escrow Shares and the number and exercise price of the $.02 Warrants, shall not be adjusted, without the prior written consent of the Company and Parent, provided, however, that such Common Stock Exchange Ratio, the number of each of the Conversion Shares, the number and exercise price of the New Warrants, the number of Additional Shares (including the purchase price therefor as set forth in Section 5.13(b)), the number of Exchanged Shares, the Escrow Shares and the number and exercise price of the $.02 Warrants shall be equitably adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock or Company Capital Stock), extraordinary cash dividends, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock or Company Capital Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

1.15 No Fractional Shares. No certificate or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, Parent Preferred Stock, New Warrants or $.02 Warrants shall be issued upon the surrender of Company Certificates for exchange, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Company Capital Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock, Parent Preferred Stock, New Warrants or $.02 Warrants (after taking into account all Company Certificates delivered by such holder) shall receive from Parent, in lieu thereof, the next highest number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock, Parent Preferred Stock, New Warrants or $.02 Warrants, as applicable.

1.16 Exchange of Certificates. As promptly as practicable before or after the Effective Time, Parent (or its designee or exchange agent, if reasonably determined by the parties to be necessary) will send to each Company Stockholder a letter of transmittal (the form of which shall be mutually agreed by and between the Parent and the Company, each acting reasonably) for use in enabling Parent to issue one or more certificates representing the prescribed number of shares of Parent Common Stock or Parent Preferred Stock or New Warrants or $.02 Warrants, as the case may be, to which such Company Stockholder may be entitled as determined in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Upon delivery of a duly executed letter of transmittal, such Company Stockholder will be entitled to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration to which such Company Stockholder may be entitled (as determined in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement). It is intended that such letter of transmittal will contain provisions requiring each executing Company Stockholder thereof to (a) acknowledge and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions applicable to the Company Stockholders, including, without limitation Section 1.7 of this Agreement, (b) confirm the appointment of the Company Representative, (c) provide notice and contact information in order for the Escrow Agent to distribute any Escrow Shares to such Company Stockholder in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, (d) make representations and warranties with respect to ownership of the Company Capital Stock owned or held by such Company Stockholder at that time, and (e) waive all appraisal or dissenter’s rights, in each case, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and as a condition precedent to Parent’s obligation to Merger Consideration to such Company Stockholder.

11

1.17 No Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, none of the Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to a holder of shares of Company Capital Stock for any Merger Consideration or any amount of cash properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

1.18 Lost Certificates. If any Company Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent) of that fact by the Person claiming such Company Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Company Certificate, the Parent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificate, the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Article I. For purposes of this Agreement, “Person” means any natural person, Governmental Authority, corporation, general or limited partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, association or unincorporated entity of any kind.

1.19 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time and from time to time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest in the Surviving Corporation full right, title and possession of all assets, properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be and are fully authorized and directed, in the name of and on behalf of the Company and Merger Sub, to take, or cause to be taken, all such lawful and necessary action as is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

From and after the Effective Time, Parent will continue to honor and fulfill all obligations of Parent or any Parent Subsidiary pursuant to any written indemnification agreements with any Parent Indemnified Persons in effect as of the date hereof. In addition, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall maintain in effect any and all exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of Parent’s and any of its Subsidiaries’ certificate of incorporation and by-laws or similar organization documents in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any acts or omissions arising out of or pertaining to the Merger) or in any indemnification agreements of Parent or its Subsidiaries with any Parent Indemnified Person in effect as of the date hereof, and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any individuals who at the Effective Time were Parent Indemnified Persons, and all rights to indemnification in respect of any Action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such Action or resolution of such claim.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall purchase and maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy or policies, and, if such policy or policies do not cover the Parent Indemnified Persons for events occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall purchase and obtain a six (6) year extended reporting period or tail policy or policies covering each for events occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, which insurance shall be of at least the same coverage and amounts and contain terms and conditions which are no less advantageous to each Parent Indemnified Person than the coverage, amounts, terms and conditions of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy maintained by Parent and its Subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parent shall bear the burden and cost of obtaining such policy or policies.

49

(c) The rights of each Parent Indemnified Person hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such Parent Indemnified Person may have under the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Parent or any other similar organizational documents of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, any other indemnification agreement or arrangement , the BCL or otherwise. This Section 5.10 shall survive the consummation of the Merger, and is intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Parent Indemnified Persons, their heirs and personal representatives, shall be binding on Parent, the Surviving Corporation and their successors and assigns and may not be amended, altered or repealed after the Effective Time without the prior written consent of the affected Parent Indemnified Persons. In the event that Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their successors or assigns: (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation (as the case may be) are obligated to honor the indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 5.10. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries or their respective officers, directors and employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.10 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

(a) Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including any acts or omissions arising out of or pertaining to the Merger), whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, now existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers or employees, as the case may be, of the Company or its Subsidiaries as provided in their respective certificates of incorporation or by-laws or other organization documents or in any agreement shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall maintain in effect any and all exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of the Company’s and any of its Subsidiaries’ certificate of incorporation and by-laws or similar organization documents in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time or in any indemnification agreements of the Company or its Subsidiaries with any of their respective current or former directors, officers or employees in effect as of the date hereof, and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any individuals who at the Effective Time were current or former directors, officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and all rights to indemnification in respect of any Action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such Action or resolution of such claim.

50

(b) From and after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall continue to indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director (or member of any committee of a board of directors), officer, employee or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, together with such Person’s heirs, executors or administrators, a “Company Indemnified Person”) against any and all damages, expenses, attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any Action or investigation arising out of or pertaining to any action or omission occurring or alleged to have occurred whether before or after the Effective Time (including acts or omissions in connection with such Persons serving as an officer, director (or member of any committee of a board of directors), employee, agent or other fiduciary in any entity if such service was at the request or for the benefit of the Company, and any acts or omissions arising out of or pertaining to the Merger), or any Action instituted by any Company Indemnified Person to enforce this Section 5.11, including, in each case, the advancing of expenses to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law in effect on the date of this Agreement or as amended to increase the scope of permitted indemnification; provided, however, that the Company Indemnified Person to whom such expenses are advanced shall be required to provide an undertaking to Parent to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Company Indemnified Person is not entitled to indemnification.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall purchase and maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy or policies, and, if such policy or policies do not cover the Company's current or former directors for events occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall purchase a six (6) year extended reporting period or tail policy or policies covering the Company’s current and former directors and officers for events occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, which insurance shall be of at least the same coverage and amounts and contain terms and conditions which are no less advantageous to the Company’s current and former directors and officers than the coverage, amounts, terms and conditions of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy maintained by the Company as of the date of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parent shall bear the burden and cost of obtaining such policy or policies and shall provide the Company with a copy thereof.

(d) The rights of each Company Indemnified Person hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such Company Indemnified Person may have under the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company or any other similar organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation, any other indemnification agreement or arrangement, the DGCL or otherwise.

Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective officers, directors and employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.11 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

51

5.12 Directors and Officers of Parent. Parent and the Company shall take all necessary action (including, but not limited to, an amendment to the Parent’s bylaws increasing the size of its Board of Directors to nine members) so that following the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of the Parent shall consist of nine directors, five of whom shall be designated by the Company and four of whom shall be designated by Parent. The directors designated by Parent shall be: Robert Fagenson, Ira Greenstein, Robert Bzdick and David Klein, and the five directors designated by the Company shall be Jeff Ronaldi, Will Rosellini, Peter Hardigan, Warren Hurwitz and one other person to be designated by the Company (reasonably acceptable to Parent) on or prior to the filing of the first amendment to the Proxy Statement. If Parent’s stockholders approve the proposal to amend the Certificate of Incorporation of Parent to provide for a Staggered Board, the members of the class coming up for election in the annual meetings of stockholders for 2013 (“Class I”), 2014 (“Class II”) and 2015 (“Class III”) shall be David Klein, Ira Greenstein and Will Rosellini for Class I, Robert Bzdick, Peter Hardigan, and the Company’s fifth designee for Class II and Warren Hurwitz, Jeff Ronaldi, and Robert Fagenson for Class III. If Parent’s stockholders do not approve the proposal to amend the Certificate of Incorporation of Parent to provide for a Staggered Board, then the Board of Directors of the Parent following the Effective Time shall initially consist of eight directors, four of whom shall be the persons designated by the Company above and the other four shall be the persons designated by Parent above; provided, that, prior to Closing, Parent and the Company shall jointly identify a ninth person to be nominated for a position on the board of directors of Parent following the Effective Time. The following persons will serve as executive officers of Parent immediately following the Effective Time: Will Rosellini (Chief Executive Officer), Peter Hardigan (Chief Investment Officer), Phillip Jones (Chief Financial Officer) and Robert Bzdick (Executive Vice President).

5.13 Additional Issuance of Parent Common Stock. At the Effective Time, if the Company has at least $7,500,000 in cash on hand (which, for purposes of calculating such amount, shall include amounts, not to exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate, paid prior to the Effective Time to the attorneys, accountants and other professionals regarding services to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, “Professional Fees”)) and the Company and its Subsidiaries have no liabilities or obligations required to be accrued under GAAP (except those set forth on Section 2.7 of the Company Disclosure Schedule), then Parent shall issue an additional 2,500,000 shares of Parent Common Stock to the Company Stockholders. In addition, if at the Effective Time, the Company has more than $7,500,000 in cash on hand (which, for purposes of calculating such amount, shall include the amount of Professional Fees paid prior to the Effective Time) and the Company and its Subsidiaries have no liabilities or obligations required to be accrued under GAAP (except those set forth on Section 2.7 of the Company Disclosure Schedule), then Parent shall issue a number of additional shares of Parent Common Stock to the Company Stockholders to be determined by dividing such excess by $3.00, provided that if such excess is more than $1,500,000 (i.e., the Company has more than $9,000,000 in cash on hand which, for purposes of calculating such amount, shall include the amount of Professional Fees paid prior to the Effective Time), the Parent shall not be obligated to issue any additional shares of Parent Common Stock with respect to such excess over $1,500,000 (such shares along with the 2,500,000 shares referenced in the prior sentence, collectively the “Additional Shares”). The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to distribute any cash in excess of $9,000,000 (which, for purposes of calculating such amount, shall include the amount of Professional Fees paid prior to the Effective Time) to its stockholders immediately prior to the Closing Date. By way of example only, if the Company has $8,000,000 in cash on hand (which, for purposes of calculating such amount shall include the amount of Professional Fees paid prior to the Effective Time) at the Effective Time, then Parent shall issue (i) 2,500,000 shares of Parent Common Stock, plus (ii) 166,667 shares of Parent Common Stock to the Company Stockholders. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of calculating whether the Company has satisfied the condition of having $7,500,000 in cash or is entitled to Additional Shares, the Company shall receive a credit for all payments of Professional Fees made by the Company prior to the Closing Date for which Parent would have been required to pay under Section 7.3(a) hereof assuming the Closing of the Merger has occurred.

5.14 Private Placement. Prior to execution of this Agreement, Parent has issued and sold to the Company (or at the Company’s option one or more investors) between 833,333 and 1,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock for an aggregate net purchase price to Parent of between $2,500,000 and $3,000,000 (the “Private Placement”). If the Company was the investor in any shares of Parent Common Stock in the Private Placement, then, at Closing, Parent shall issue an additional number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock purchased by the Company in the Private Placement and the shares of Parent Common Stock sold to the Company in the Private Placement shall be cancelled and extinguished at Closing (any such shares issued in lieu of cancelled shares shall be referred to herein as “Exchanged Shares”).

5.15 Warrant Registration. Immediately following the Closing, Parent shall use its best efforts to file a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “S-3”) with the SEC for the exercise of the New Warrants and the $.02 Warrants, if applicable, and the sale of the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable thereunder and cause such S-3 to become effective.

5.16 Tax Opinion. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enable the Company to receive a written opinion, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to it, dated as of the Closing Date to the effect that, on the basis of the facts, representations and assumptions set forth or referred to in such opinion, for United States federal income tax purposes the Merger more likely than not will constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. In rendering such opinion, such counsel shall be entitled to rely upon customary assumptions and representations reasonably satisfactory to such counsel, including representations set forth in certificates of officers of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company.

5.17 Professional Fees. On or prior to the Closing, each of the Company and Parent shall submit to the other a statement of all Professional Fees paid or accrued by the Company or Parent and its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and such amounts shall constitute all of the Professional Fees of such party for purposes of this Agreement.

9.7 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in the exercise of any right hereunder will impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

EXHIBIT A

ESCROW AGREEMENT

THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT, dated as of _ , 2012 (the “Agreement”), by and among DOCUMENT SECURITY SYSTEMS, INC. (the “Parent”), HUDSON BAY MASTER FUND LTD., as representative (the “Stockholders’ Representative”) of the stockholders (the “Stockholders”) of LEXINGTON TECHNOLOGY GROUP, INC. (the “Company”), and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”).

WHEREAS, the Parent and the Company have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among Parent, DSSIP, Inc., the Company and Stockholders’ Representative, dated as of ___________, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”; capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Merger Agreement);

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 1.8 of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver 7,100,000 shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Escrow Shares”) to the Escrow Agent to be held in escrow;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Stockholders have appointed the Stockholders’ Representative to represent them for certain purposes in connection with the provisions of the Merger Agreement and this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent has agreed to hold, invest and/or release the Escrow Shares pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants, representations and warranties contained herein and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Appointment of Escrow Agent. The Parent, the Stockholders and the Company hereto hereby constitute and appoint the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act in accordance with and subject to such terms.

2. Deposit of Escrow Shares. On the Effective Date, Parent shall deposit with the Escrow Agent the Escrow Shares in the form of certificates, or, if requested at Closing, in book entry, in the name of the Stockholders, to be held and disbursed subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

3. Disbursement of the Escrow Shares.

(a) The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares and disburse the Escrow Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement until the earlier of (i) the last date upon which the closing price per share of Parent Common Stock exceeds $5.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and similar events) for 40 Trading Days (as hereinafter defined) within a continuous 90 Trading Day period following the Closing Date (the “Stock Target Date”) or (ii) __________, 2013 (the “Termination Date”). The number of Escrow Shares beneficially owned by each Stockholder is set forth on Schedule 1 hereto. Such Schedule shall list each Stockholder and such Stockholders’ interest in the Escrow Shares. The Escrow Agent shall have no further duties hereunder after the disbursement or destruction of the Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section 3. For purposes of this Agreement, “Trading Day” means, as applicable, (x) with respect to all price determinations relating to the Parent Common Stock, any day on which Parent Common Stock is traded on the Principal Market, provided that “Trading Day” shall not include any day on which Parent Common Stock is scheduled to trade on such exchange or market for less than 4.5 hours or any day that Parent Common Stock is suspended from trading during the final hour of trading on such exchange or market (or if such exchange or market does not designate in advance the closing time of trading on such exchange or market, then during the hour ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time) or (y) with respect to all determinations other than price determinations relating to Parent Common Stock, any day on which The New York Stock Exchange (or any successor thereto) is open for trading of securities. For purposes of this Agreement, “Principal Market” means the NYSE MKT, or if NYSE MKT is not the principal trading market for Parent Common Stock, then the principal securities exchange or securities market on which Parent Common Stock is then traded, or the over-the-counter market or the electronic bulletin board for such security.

(b) Within three days following the Stock Target Date or the Termination Date, as the case may be, the Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent (“Joint Written Instructions”) providing for the disbursement of the Escrow Shares to the Stockholders or Parent, as the case may be. If Joint Written Instructions are not provided, then Sections 3(c) and 3(d) below and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement shall govern the disposition of the Escrow Shares. The disbursement of Escrow Shares, if any, to the Stockholders shall be made directly from the Escrow Agent to each Stockholder at the address provided by such Stockholder in the letter of transmittal submitted by such Stockholder pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The parties hereto agree that in no event shall the Stockholders' Representative be obligated to receive or disburse any Escrow Shares on behalf of any Stockholder.

(c) If Joint Written Instructions have not been delivered to the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 3(b), then (i) the Stockholders’ Representative may demand delivery of the Escrow Shares upon written notice to both the Escrow Agent and the Parent (the “Stockholders’ Demand”) and (ii) the Parent may demand delivery of the Escrow Shares upon written notice to both the Escrow Agent and the Stockholders’ Representative (“Parents’ Demand”). In the event of a Stockholders’ Demand, if the Parent does not object to such disbursement by providing a written notice of its objection (the “Parent Objection”) to both the Escrow Agent and the Stockholders’ Representative within 10 days of the date of the Stockholders’ Demand, the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Shares to the Stockholders within three business days after the expiration of such 10 day period. In the event of Parents’ Demand, if the Stockholders’ Representative does not object to such disbursement by providing a written notice of its objection (the “Stockholders’ Objection”) to both the Escrow Agent and the Parent within 10 days of the date of Parent’s Demand, the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Shares to the Parent within three business days after the expiration of such 10 day period. A Parent Objection or Stockholders’ Objection, as applicable, shall set forth in detail the basis of such objection.

2

(d) If the Stockholders’ Representative timely delivers a Stockholders’ Objection or the Parent timely delivers a Parent Objection, as the case may be, the Escrow Agent shall not disburse, and shall continue to hold the Escrow Shares or the disputed portion thereof, as the case may be, pending receipt of either (i) delivery instructions signed by the Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative, specifying the agreement of the parties as to the action to be taken by the Escrow Agent (“Joint Payment Instructions”) or (ii) a notice from either the Parent or the Stockholders’ Representative stating that the dispute has been submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction for judgment and that a judgment with respect to such matters has been rendered or such dispute has been submitted to a panel of arbitrators with proper jurisdiction and that a final non-appealable award with respect to such arbitration has been rendered (in each case, a “Judgment Notice”) which is accompanied by a copy of a final, nonappealable order of such court or such arbitration panel, as the case may be (each an “Order”), pursuant to which such court or panel of arbitrators has determined whether and to what extent the party seeking the Escrow Shares is entitled to the amount requested. Upon receipt of Joint Payment Instructions or a Judgment Notice accompanied by an Order, as the case may be, the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Shares as instructed in the Joint Payment Instructions or Judgment Notice, as applicable, within three business days after receipt of such Joint Payment Instructions or Judgment Notice accompanied by an Order. A copy of the Judgment Notice or Order shall be delivered to each party at the same time as it is delivered to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent may rely on its own reasonable judgment as to whether an order constitutes an Order.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if at any time the Escrow Agent shall receive Joint Written Instructions to release the Escrow Shares, then within three business days after receipt of such Joint Written Instructions, the Escrow Agent shall release the Escrow Shares in accordance with such Joint Written Instructions. The parties will cooperate in good faith in executing such Joint Written Instructions whenever reasonably necessary to ensure distributions of escrowed funds to the party entitled thereto under the terms of the this Agreement.

(f) Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, each Stockholder shall at all times retain and have the full and absolute right to exercise all rights and indicia of ownership with respect to the Escrow Shares owned by such Stockholder, including, without limitation, voting and consensual rights and the Stockholders’ Representative shall have no right, by virtue of its capacity as Stockholders’ Representative, to direct the vote or disposition of any of the Escrow Shares; provided, however, that the Stockholders shall have no right to transfer, pledge or encumber or otherwise dispose of in any manner whatsoever any Escrow Shares, except as otherwise may be provided herein. For tax purposes the Escrow Shares shall be treated as having been actually issued and transferred to the Stockholders and the Stockholders shall be considered the owners of the shares from the date of issue. All dividends or distributions or proceeds in stock or other property issued in respect of the Escrow Shares shall be deposited into the Escrow Account and become part of the Escrow Shares and shall ultimately be distributed to the person or entity which receives the Escrow Shares. Any such dividends or distributions or proceeds deposited into the Escrow Shares shall be attributed to each Stockholder in his, her or its proportionate interest as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto.

4. Concerning the Escrow Agent.

4.1 Good Faith Reliance. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, and may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained) which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons.

| 4. | Section 3 of the Certificate of Incorporation is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following:

1. Designation and Amount. The class of preferred stock hereby classified shall be designated the “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”. The initial number of authorized shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be _________ (____), which shall not be subject to increase without the consent of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Each share of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall have a par value of $0.02.

2. Dividends.

Payments under the preceding sentence shall be made concurrently with the dividend or distribution to the holders of Common Stock.

3. Liquidation Preference. Upon any Liquidation Event (as defined below), after provision for payment of all debts and liabilities of the Corporation, any remaining assets of the Corporation shall be distributed pro rata to the holders of Common Stock and the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as if the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 hereof immediately prior to such distribution. For purposes of this Certificate of Amendment, a "Liquidation Event" means the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries (as defined below), the sale of assets of which constitute all or substantially all of the assets of the business of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in a single transaction or series of transactions.

(v) "Parent Entity" of a Person means an entity that, directly or indirectly, controls the applicable Person and whose common stock or equivalent equity security is quoted or listed on an Eligible Market, or, if there is more than one such Person or Parent Entity, the Person or Parent Entity with the largest public market capitalization as of the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction.

(ix) "Successor Entity" means the Person, which may be the Corporation, formed by, resulting from or surviving any Fundamental Transaction or the Person with which such Fundamental Transaction shall have been made, provided that if such Person is not a publicly traded entity whose common stock or equivalent equity security is quoted or listed for trading on an Eligible Market, Successor Entity shall mean such Person's Parent Entity.

(x) "Trading Day" means any day on which the Common Stock is traded on the Principal Market, or, if the Principal Market is not the principal trading market for the Common Stock, then on the principal securities exchange or securities market on which the shares of Common Stock are then traded; provided that "Trading Day" shall not include any day on which the shares of Common Stock are scheduled to trade on such exchange or market for less than 4.5 hours or any day that the shares of Common Stock are suspended from trading during the final hour of trading on such exchange or market (or if such exchange or market does not designate in advance the closing time of trading on such exchange or market, then during the hour ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York Time).

(b) Assumption. The Corporation shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless (i) the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate of Amendment in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders and approved by the Required Holders prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each Holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in exchange for such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Certificate of Amendment including, without limitation, having a stated value equal to the Stated Value of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by such Holder and having similar ranking to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and satisfactory to the Required Holders and (ii) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Certificate of Amendment referring to the "Corporation" shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Corporation and shall assume all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate of Amendment with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Corporation herein. Upon consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock), such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Certificate of Amendment, which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had such Holder converted the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in full (without regard to any limitations on conversion, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (provided, however, to the extent that a Holder’s right to receive any such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity would result in the Holder exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to receive such shares to such extent (or to beneficially own any shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity as a result of such consideration to such extent) and the portion of such shares shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time such Holder shall be delivered such shares to the extent as if there had been no such limitation). The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

5. Voting Rights.

(a) General. The Holders shall not be entitled to vote, except (i) as otherwise required by applicable law and (ii) subject to Section 6(i), that each issued and outstanding share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which each such share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 4 hereof), at each meeting of stockholders of the Corporation (or pursuant to any action by written consent) with respect to matters presented to the stockholders of the Corporation for their action or consideration in connection with (A) a Fundamental Transaction or (B) the issuance by the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions or series of related transactions, of shares of Common Stock, Options (as defined below) or Convertible Securities (as defined below) if, in the aggregate, the number of such shares of Common Stock together with the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exercise, as applicable, of such Options and Convertible Securities is more than 20% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to any such issuance (such issuance, the "Twenty Percent Issuance").

(b) Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Protective Provisions. In addition to any other rights provided by law, the Corporation shall not and shall not permit any direct or indirect Subsidiary (as defined below) of the Corporation to, without first obtaining the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock:

(i) increase the authorized number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; or

(ii) amend, alter or repeal the preferences, special rights or other powers of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock so as to affect adversely the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

6. Conversion. Subject to Section 6(i), each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of Common Stock at any time or times, at the option of any Holder as provided in this Section 6, provided, however, that in connection with any Liquidation Event, the right of conversion shall terminate at the close of business on the full Business Day next preceding the date fixed for the payment of any amounts distributable on liquidation to the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

(a) Certain definitions. For purposes of this Certificate of Amendment, the following definitions shall apply:

(i) "Bloomberg" means Bloomberg Financial Markets.

(ii) "Conversion Amount" means the Stated Value.

(iii) "Conversion Price" means $0.02, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

(iv) "Subsidiary" means, with respect to the Corporation, any entity in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, owns any of the capital stock or holds an equity or similar interest.

(b) Conversion. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6 shall be determined by multiplying each such share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock by the fraction set forth below (the "Conversion Rate"):

Conversion Amount
Conversion Price

No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the conversion of any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

The applicable Conversion Rate and Conversion Price from time to time in effect is subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided.

(c) Mechanics of Conversion. The conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be conducted in the following manner:

(i) Holder's Delivery Requirements. To convert Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock on any date (a "Conversion Date"), the Holder shall (A) transmit by facsimile (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on such date, a copy of a properly completed notice of conversion executed by the registered Holder of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock subject to such conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the "Conversion Notice") to the Corporation and if the Corporation has appointed a registered transfer agent, the Corporation’s registered transfer agent (the "Transfer Agent") (if the Corporation does not have a registered transfer agent, references hereto to the "Transfer Agent" shall be deemed to be references to the Corporation) and (B) if required by Section 6(c)(iv), surrender to a common carrier for delivery to the Corporation as soon as practicable following such date the original certificates representing the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock being converted (or compliance with the procedures set forth in Section 9) (the "Preferred Stock Certificates").

(ii) Corporation's Response. Upon receipt by the Corporation of a copy of a Conversion Notice, the Corporation shall (A) as soon as practicable, but in any event within two (2) Trading Days, send, via facsimile, a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to such Holder and the Transfer Agent, if applicable, which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein and (B) on or before the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date of receipt by the Corporation of such Conversion Notice (the "Share Delivery Date"), (1) provided the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder's or its designee's balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system, or (2) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled. If the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the Preferred Stock Certificate(s) submitted for conversion, as may be required pursuant to Section 6(c)(iv), is greater than the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock being converted, then the Corporation shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Preferred Stock Certificate(s) (the "Preferred Stock Delivery Date") and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder a new Preferred Stock Certificate representing the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock not converted.

(iii) Corporation's Failure to Timely Convert.

(A) Cash Damages. If within three (3) Trading Days after the Corporation's receipt of the facsimile copy of a Conversion Notice the Corporation shall fail to credit a Holder's balance account with DTC or issue and deliver a certificate to such Holder for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder is entitled upon such Holder's conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (a "Conversion Failure"), and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Corporation (a "Buy-In"), then the Corporation shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the Holder's request and in the Holder's discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the "Buy-In Price"), at which point the Corporation's obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Common Stock) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the Closing Sale Price on the Conversion Date. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Corporation's failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

(B) Void Conversion Notice; Adjustment of Conversion Price. If for any reason a Holder has not received all of the shares of Common Stock to which such Holder is entitled prior to the tenth (10th) Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date with respect to a conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, then the Holder, upon written notice to the Corporation, with a copy to the Transfer Agent, may void its Conversion Notice with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that have not been converted pursuant to such Holder's Conversion Notice; provided that the voiding of a Holder's Conversion Notice shall not effect the Corporation's obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to Section 6(c)(iii)(A) or otherwise.

(iv) Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder thereof shall not be required to physically surrender the Preferred Stock Certificate unless (A) the full or remaining number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the Preferred Stock Certificate are being converted, in which case the Holder shall deliver such Preferred Stock Certificate to the Corporation promptly following such conversion, or (B) a Holder has provided the Corporation with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock upon physical surrender of any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The Holder and the Corporation shall maintain records showing the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Corporation, so as not to require physical surrender of the certificate representing the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Corporation establishing the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to which the record holder is entitled shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Series A Convertible Preferred Stock represented by a certificate are converted as aforesaid, a Holder may not transfer the certificate representing the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock unless such Holder first physically surrenders the certificate representing the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to the Corporation, whereupon the Corporation will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of such Holder a new certificate of like tenor, registered as such Holder may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock represented by such certificate. A Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of a certificate, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock represented by such certificate may be less than the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock stated on the face thereof. Each certificate for Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall bear the following legend:

ANY TRANSFEREE OF THIS CERTIFICATE SHOULD CAREFULLY REVIEW THE TERMS OF THE CORPORATION'S CERTIFICATE OF Amendment RELATING TO THE SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE, INCLUDING SECTION 6(c)(iv) THEREOF. THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE LESS THAN THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK STATED ON THE FACE HEREOF PURSUANT TO SECTION 6(c)(iv) OF THE CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT RELATING TO THE SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE.

(d) Reservation of Shares.

(i) The Corporation shall have such number of its duly authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for each Series A Convertible Preferred Stock equal to 130% of the number of shares of Common Stock necessary to effect the conversion at the Conversion Rate with respect to each such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as of the Initial Issuance Date. The Corporation shall at all times when the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be outstanding reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued stock, for the purposes of effecting the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Required Reserve Amount"). The initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for conversions of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and each increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the Holders based on the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by each Holder at the time of issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the "Authorized Share Allocation"). In the event a Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Holder's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the number of reserved shares of Common Stock reserved for such transferor. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (other than pursuant to a transfer of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence) shall be allocated to the remaining Holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, pro rata based on the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock then held by such Holders. Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price below the then par value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take any corporate action that may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully-paid and nonassessable shares of such Common Stock at such adjusted conversion price.

(ii) If at any time while any of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding the Corporation does not have a sufficient number of duly authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an "Authorized Share Failure"), then the Corporation shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Corporation's authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Corporation to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Corporation shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Corporation shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its stockholders' approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal.

(e) Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Rate, the Corporation shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that is not disputed and shall transmit an explanation of the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations to the Holder via facsimile within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such Holder's Conversion Notice or other date of determination. If such Holder and the Corporation are unable to agree upon the determination of the arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Rate within two (2) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being transmitted to the Holder, then the Corporation shall within one (1) Business Day submit via facsimile the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Rate to any "big four" international accounting firm. The Corporation shall cause, at the Corporation's expense (unless the accounting firm determines in favor of the Corporation, in which case the Holder shall be responsible for such expense), the accountant to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Corporation and the Holders of the results no later than five (5) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such accountant's determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent error.

(f) Record Holder. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date.

(g) Effect of Conversion. All shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock which shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and to vote, shall forthwith cease and terminate except only the right of the holder thereof to receive shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor and payment of any accrued but unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared). Subject to Section 6(c)(iii)(B), any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock so converted shall be retired and canceled and shall not be reissued, and the Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized Series A Convertible Preferred Stock accordingly.

(h) Transfer Taxes. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock so converted and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

(i) Maximum Percentage. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Corporation shall not effect any conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and no Holder shall have the right to convert any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the beneficial owner of such shares (together with such Person's affiliates) would have acquired, through conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or otherwise, beneficial ownership of a number of shares of Common Stock that exceeds 9.99% (the "Maximum Percentage") of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. The Corporation shall not give effect to any voting rights of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and any Holder shall not have the right to exercise voting rights with respect to any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant hereto, to the extent that giving effect to such voting rights would result in such Holder (together with its affiliates) being deemed to beneficially own in excess of the Maximum Percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise, assuming such exercise as being equivalent to conversion. For purposes of the foregoing, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a Person and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such Person or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Corporation (including, without limitation, any notes or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 6(i) beneficially owned by such Person or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 6(i), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of this Section 6(i), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (1) the Corporation's most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, or Form 8-K, as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Corporation, or (3) any other notice by the Corporation or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written request of any Holder, the Corporation shall within one (1) Business Day following the receipt of such notice, confirm orally and in writing to any such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Corporation, including the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, by such Holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Corporation, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% specified in such notice; provided, that (i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Corporation, and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder providing such written notice and not to any other Holder. In the event that the Corporation cannot pay any portion of any dividend, distribution, grant or issuance hereunder to a Holder solely by reason of this Section 6(i) (such shares, the "Limited Shares"), notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Corporation shall not be required to pay cash in lieu of the payment that otherwise would have been made in such Limited Shares, but shall hold any such Limited Shares in abeyance for such Holder until such time, if ever, that the delivery of such Limited Shares shall not cause the Holder to exceed the Maximum Percentage, at which time such Holder shall be delivered such Limited Shares to the extent as if there had been no such limitation. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 6(i) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.

7. Anti-Dilution Provisions. The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with this Section 7.

(a) Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Certificate of Designations, the following definitions shall apply:

(i) "Convertible Securities" means any stock or securities (other than Options) directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock.

(ii) "Options" means any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities.

(iii) "Principal Market" means the Eligible Market that is the principal securities exchange market for the Common Stock.

(b)Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Corporation at any time after the Initial Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Corporation at any time after the Initial Issuance Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased.

(c) Voluntary Adjustment By Corporation. The Corporation may at any time reduce the then current Conversion Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate and approved by the Board of Directors in accordance with New York law.

(d) Notices.

(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and Conversion Price pursuant to Section 7 hereof, the Corporation will give written notice thereof sent by mail, first class, postage prepaid to each Holder at its address appearing on the stock register, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of such adjustment, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6(e).

(ii) Except as otherwise required by law, the Corporation will give written notice to each Holder at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which the Corporation closes its books or takes a record (I) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (II) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or (III) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Twenty Percent Issuance, any Fundamental Transaction or any Liquidation Event.

(iii) The Corporation will also give written notice to each Holder at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which any Twenty Percent Issuance, any Fundamental Transaction or any Liquidation Event will take place.

8. Status of Converted Stock. In the event any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be converted pursuant to Section 6 hereof, the shares so converted shall be canceled and shall not be issuable by the Corporation.

9. Suspension from Trading. If on any day after the Initial Issuance Date, the sale of any of the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Conversion Shares") (without giving effect to the Maximum Percentage) issuable hereunder cannot be made (i) because of the suspension of trading by the Principal Market, or, if the Principal Market is not the principal trading market for the Common Stock, then on the principal securities exchange or securities market on which the shares of Common Stock are then traded (other than due to an event that causes the suspension of trading on such Principal Market or principal securities exchange or securities market of all securities generally) (a "Maintenance Failure"), then, as partial relief for the damages to any Holder by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Conversion Shares (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity, including, without limitation, specific performance), the Corporation shall pay to each Holder, for each full consecutive fifteen (15) Trading Day period during which there is a Maintenance Failure, an amount in cash equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the product of (I) the total number of Conversion Shares issuable hereunder (without giving effect to the Maximum Percentage) and (II) the highest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock during the period beginning on the Trading Date immediately prior to the first date of the Maintenance Failure and ending on the date such Maintenance Failure is cured or (ii) because of a failure to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on one or more Eligible Markets (a "Delisting Maintenance Failure"), then, as partial relief for the damages to any Holder by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Conversion Shares (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity, including, without limitation, specific performance), the Corporation shall pay to each Holder, for each full consecutive fifteen (15) Trading Day period during which there is a Delisting Maintenance Failure, an amount in cash equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the Conversion Amount then held by such Holder. The payments to which a Holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 9 are referred to herein as "Suspension Payments". Suspension Payments shall be paid on the third Business Day after each full fifteen (15) day period during which there is a Maintenance Failure or a Delisting Maintenance Failure, as applicable

10. Lost or Stolen Certificates. Upon receipt by the Corporation of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Certificates representing the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of an indemnification undertaking (with surety, if reasonably requested by the Corporation) by the holder thereof to the Corporation in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Certificate(s), the Corporation shall execute and deliver new preferred stock certificate(s) of like tenor and date; provided, however, the Corporation shall not be obligated to re-issue preferred stock certificates if the holder contemporaneously requests the Corporation to convert such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into Common Stock.

11. Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Certificate of Amendment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Certificate of Amendment, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief). No remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy. Nothing herein shall limit a holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock's right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms of this Certificate of Amendment. The Corporation covenants to each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock thereof and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Corporation (or the performance thereof). The Corporation acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Corporation therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

12. Notice. Whenever notice or other communication is required to be given under this Certificate of Amendment, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with contact information provided by each Holder to the Corporation and set forth in the register for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock maintained by the Corporation as set forth in Section 15.

13. Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

14. Transfer of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. A Holder may assign some or all of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and the accompanying rights hereunder held by such Holder without the consent of the Corporation; provided that such assignment is in compliance with applicable securities laws.

15. Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Register. The Corporation shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Corporation as it may designate by notice to the Holders), a register for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, in which the Corporation shall record the name and address of the persons in whose name the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have been issued, as well as the name and address of each transferee. The Corporation may treat the person in whose name any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is registered on the register as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, but in all events recognizing any properly made transfers.

16. Stockholder Matters. Any stockholder action, approval or consent required, desired or otherwise sought by the Corporation pursuant to the BCL, this Certificate of Amendment or otherwise with respect to the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof may be effected by written consent of the Corporation's stockholders or at a duly called meeting of the Corporation's stockholders, all in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the BCL and the applicable provisions hereof. This provision is intended to comply with the applicable sections of the BCL permitting stockholder action, approval and consent affected by written consent in lieu of a meeting.

17. General Provisions. In addition to the above provisions with respect to Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be subject to and be entitled to the benefit of the provisions set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation with respect to preferred stock of the Corporation generally.

18. Disclosure. Upon receipt or delivery by the Corporation of any notice in accordance with the terms of this Certificate of Amendment, unless the Corporation has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, the Corporation shall within one (1) Business Day after any such receipt or delivery publicly disclose such material, nonpublic information on a Current Report on Form 8-K or otherwise. In the event that the Corporation believes that a notice contains material, nonpublic information relating to the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, the Corporation so shall indicate to the Holders contemporaneously with delivery of such notice, and in the absence of any such indication, the Holders shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Corporation or its Subsidiaries.

DOCUMENT SECURITY SYSTEMS, INC.

Common Stock Warrant

Document Security Systems, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby certifies that ________, or its registered assigns (the “Registered Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms of this Common Stock Warrant (the “Warrant”) set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at any time after the date hereof and on or before [___________ __ 2022][TEN YEARS] (the “Expiration Date”), up to ________ (_______) shares of common stock of the Company (the “Warrant Stock”), par value $0.02 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a per share exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) equal to two cents ($.02) per share (subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 2). This Warrant is one of the $.02 Warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) issued pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among the Company, DSSIP, Inc., Lexington Technology Group, Inc. and the Company Representative (as defined therein), dated as of October 1, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”).

1. Exercise.

(a) Method of Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder, in whole or in part, by delivering the form appended hereto as Exhibit A duly executed by such Registered Holder (the “Exercise Notice”), at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate in writing prior to the date of such exercise, accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price payable with respect to the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon such exercise. The Exercise Price must be paid by cash, check or wire transfer in immediately available funds for the Warrant Stock being purchased by the Registered Holder, except as provided in Section 1(c).

(b) Effective Time of Exercise. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company (the “Exercise Date”) as provided in this Section 1. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for Warrant Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 1(d) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Stock represented by such certificates.

(c) Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if at any time between the three (3) month anniversary of the Issuance Date and the Expiration Date the Registered Holder wishes to exercise this Warrant and there is no effective Registration Statement under the Securities Act registering the resale of the Warrant Stock by the Registered Holder at such time, then the Registered Holder may elect to exercise this Warrant or a portion hereof, and to pay for the Warrant Stock by way of a cashless exercise. If the Registered Holder wishes to effect a cashless exercise, the Registered Holder shall deliver the Exercise Notice duly executed by such Registered Holder or by such Registered Holder’s duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate in writing prior to the date of such exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Warrant Stock computed according to the following equation:

; where

X = the number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued to the Registered Holder.

Y = the Warrant Stock purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant Stock being exercised.

A = the Fair Market Value (defined below) of one share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date.

B = the Exercise Price (as adjusted pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant).

C = the Closing Sale Price ending on the Trading Day before the Exercise Date if exercised on the Exercise Date before 4:00:00 p.m, New York time, or if exercised on the Exercise Date after 4:00:00 p.m. New York time, then the Closing Sale Price on the Exercise Date.

For purposes of this Section 1(c), the “Fair Market Value” of one share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date shall have one of the following meanings:

(1) if the Common Stock is traded on (A) a national securities exchange or (B) over- the-counter, the Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the average of the VWAP (as hereinafter defined) over a ten (10) Trading Day (as hereinafter defined) period ending on the Trading Day before the Exercise Date; or

(2) if neither (1)(A) nor 1(B) is applicable, the Fair Market Value shall be at the commercially reasonable price per share which the Company could obtain on the Exercise Date from a willing buyer (not a current employee or director) for shares of Common Stock sold by the Company, from authorized but unissued shares, as determined jointly by the Company’s Board of Directors and the Registered Holders (as hereinafter defined) representing more than 50% of the aggregate amount of all of the then outstanding Warrants. “Registered Holders” means all of the holders of the Warrants issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

For illustration purposes only, if this Warrant entitles the Registered Holder the right to purchase 100,000 shares of Warrant Stock and the Registered Holder were to exercise this Warrant for 50,000 shares of Warrant Stock at a time when the Exercise Price was reduced to $1.00 and the Fair Market Value and the Closing Sale Price of each share of Common Stock was $2.00 on the Exercise Date, as applicable, the cashless exercise calculation would be as follows:

X = 50,000 ($2.00-$1.00)

$2.00

X = 25,000

Therefore, the number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued to the Registered Holder after giving effect to the cashless exercise would be 25,000 shares of Warrant Stock and the Company would issue the Registered Holder a new Warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of Warrant Stock, reflecting the portion of this Warrant not exercised by the Registered Holder. For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Stock issued in the cashless exercise transaction described pursuant to Section 1(c) shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Registered Holder, and the holding period for the shares of Warrant Stock shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date of the Registered Holder’s acquisition of the Warrant.

(d) Delivery to Registered Holder. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part, and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter (the “Warrant Stock Delivery Date”), the Company will (i) cause the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to deliver the Warrant Stock to the Registered Holder or its designee by crediting the account of the Registered Holder’s or such designee’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system, or (ii) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in DWAC, deliver a certificate or certificates to the Registered Holder or its designee for the number of shares of Warrant Stock to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled. In the event that the Registered Holder exercises the Warrant in part only, the Company shall issue a new warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Warrant Stock equal (giving effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such shares purchased by the Registered Holder upon such exercise as provided in Section 1(a).

(e) Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Registered Holder, if the Company fails to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Stock pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Stock Delivery Date, and if after such date the Registered Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Registered Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Registered Holder of the Warrant Stock which the Registered Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Registered Holder the amount by which (x) the Registered Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of shares of Warrant Stock that the Company was required to deliver to the Registered Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Registered Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of shares of Warrant Stock for which such exercise was not honored or deliver to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Registered Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Registered Holder $1,000. The Registered Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Registered Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.

(f) Registered Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Registered Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise, to the extent (but only to the extent) that the Registered Holder or any of the Registered Holder’s affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (as defined herein) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Registered Holder that the Company is not representing to the Registered Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Registered Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 1(f) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Registered Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Registered Holder, and the submission of an Exercise Notice shall be deemed to be the Registered Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Registered Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. Upon the written or oral request of a Registered Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm orally and in writing to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Registered Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Registered Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 1(f), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall in no event exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Registered Holder and the provisions of this Section 1(f) shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(f) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

2. Adjustments.

(a) Stock Splits and Stock Dividends. If the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in Common Stock shall be paid in respect of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record date of such dividend, be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company will not declare or effect any stock split, subdivision, dividend or combination of its Common Stock while any portion of this Warrant remains exercisable unless the Company simultaneously effects a reduction on the par value per share of its Common Stock to permit the exercise in full of any remaining portion of this Warrant after giving effect to the adjustments required under the provisions of this Section 2(a).

(b) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (each, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Registered Holder shall have the right to receive, for each share of Warrant Stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Registered Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Registered Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Registered Holder’s right to exercise such warrant into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 2(b) and insuring that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

(c) Adjustment Certificate. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall promptly mail to the Registered Holder a certificate setting forth (i) a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price after such adjustment and (iii) the kind and amount of stock or other securities or property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment.

3. Transfers.

(a) Warrant Register. The Company will maintain a register containing the name and address of the Registered Holder of this Warrant. Until any transfer of this Warrant is made in the warrant register, the Company may treat the Registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes; provided, however, that if this Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not be required to) treat the bearer hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any Registered Holder may change such Registered Holder’s address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change.

4. Rights Upon Cash Dividend or Distribution of Assets. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if the Company shall declare or make any cash dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Registered Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Registered Holder would have participated therein if the Registered Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Registered Holder’s right to participate in any such Distributions would result in the Registered Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Registered Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or the beneficial ownership of any such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and such Distribution to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Registered Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Registered Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

5. Termination. This Warrant (and the right to purchase securities upon exercise hereof) shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the Expiration Date.

6. Notices of Certain Transactions. In case:

(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, or

(b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or

(c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, or

(d) of any Fundamental Transaction,

then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the Registered Holder of this Warrant a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up or Fundamental Transaction is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up) are to be determined. Failure to send such notice shall not act to invalidate any such transaction.

7. Reservation of Stock. The Company covenants that at all times it will have authorized, reserve and keep available, solely for the issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of Warrant Stock and other stock, securities and property, as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company covenants that all Warrant Stock that may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue). The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant by the Registered Holder. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Stock may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation.

8. Replacement of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

9. Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given upon receipt, when delivered personally or by courier, overnight delivery service or confirmed facsimile, or 48 hours after being deposited in the regular mail as certified or registered mail (airmail if sent internationally) with postage prepaid, addressed (a) if to the Registered Holder, to the address of the Registered Holder most recently furnished in writing to the Company and (b) if to the Company, to the address set forth on the signature page of this Warrant or as subsequently modified by written notice to the Registered Holder.

10. No Rights as Stockholder. Until the exercise of this Warrant, the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall not have or exercise any rights by virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.

11. No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder. In lieu of any fractional shares which would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall round the amount of Warrant Stock issuable to the nearest whole share.

12. Amendment or Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived upon written consent of the Company and the Registered Holder.

13. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision of this Warrant.

14. Governing Law. This Warrant and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

15. Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the fair market value, the Company or the Registered Holder, as the case may be, shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations, as the case may be, via facsimile (i) within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the applicable notice giving rise to such dispute to the Company or the Registered Holder, as the case may be, or (ii) if no notice gave rise to such dispute, at any time after the Registered Holder learned of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute. If the Registered Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation, as the case may be, of the fair market value within three (3) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Company or the Registered Holder, as the case may be, then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days submit via facsimile the disputed determination of the fair market value to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Registered Holder and reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Company shall cause, at its expense, the investment bank to perform the determinations or calculations, as the case may be, and notify the Company and the Registered Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives such disputed determinations or calculations, as the case may be. Such investment bank’s determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.

16. Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Warrant, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(a) “Business Day” means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in The City of New York are authorized or required by law to remain closed.

(b) “Bloomberg” means Bloomberg, L.P.

(c) “Closing Sale Price” means, for any security as of any date, the last closing trade price for such security on the Principal Market, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if the Principal Market begins to operate on an extended hours basis and does not designate the closing trade price, then the last trade price of such security prior to 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no last trade price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the ask prices of any market makers for such security as reported by the Principal Market. If the Closing Sale Price cannot be calculated for a security on a particular date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Sale Price of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and the Registered Holder. If the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures in Section 15. All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during such period.

(d) “Principal Market” means the NYSE MKT, or if NYSE MKT is not the principal trading market for the Common Stock, then the principal securities exchange or securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded, or the over-the-counter market or the electronic bulletin board for such security.

(e) “Trading Day” means, as applicable, (x) with respect to all price determinations relating to the Common Stock, any day on which the Common Stock is traded on the Principal Market, provided that “Trading Day” shall not include any day on which the Common Stock is scheduled to trade on such exchange or market for less than 4.5 hours or any day that the Common Stock is suspended from trading during the final hour of trading on such exchange or market (or if such exchange or market does not designate in advance the closing time of trading on such exchange or market, then during the hour ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time) unless such day is otherwise designated as a Trading Day in writing by the Registered Holder or (y) with respect to all determinations other than price determinations relating to the Common Stock, any day on which The New York Stock Exchange (or any successor thereto) is open for trading of securities.

(f) “VWAP” means, for any security as of any date, the dollar volume-weighted average price for such security on the Principal Market during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time, and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg through its “Volume at Price” function or, if the foregoing does not apply, the dollar volume-weighted average price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time, and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no dollar volume-weighted average price is reported for such security by Bloomberg for such hours, the average of the highest closing bid price and the lowest closing ask price of any of the market makers for such security as reported by the Principal Market. If VWAP cannot be calculated for such security on such date on any of the foregoing bases, the VWAP of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and the Registered Holder. If the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures in Section 15. All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during such period.

DOCUMENT SECURITY SYSTEMS, INC.

Common Stock Warrant

Document Security Systems, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby certifies that ________, or its registered assigns (the “Registered Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms of this Common Stock Warrant (the “Warrant”) set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at any time after the date hereof and on or before [___________ __ 2017][FIVE YEARS] (the “Expiration Date”), up to ________ (_______) shares of common stock of the Company (the “Warrant Stock”), par value $0.02 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a per share exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) equal to Four Dollars and Eighty Cents ($4.80) per share (subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 2). This Warrant is one of a series of warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) issued pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among the Company, DSSIP, Inc., Lexington Technology Group, Inc. and the Company Representative (as defined therein), dated as of October 1, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”).

1. Exercise.

(a) Method of Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder, in whole or in part, by delivering the form appended hereto as Exhibit A duly executed by such Registered Holder (the “Exercise Notice”), at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate in writing prior to the date of such exercise, accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price payable with respect to the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon such exercise. The Exercise Price must be paid by cash, check or wire transfer in immediately available funds for the Warrant Stock being purchased by the Registered Holder, except as provided in Section 1(c).

(b) Effective Time of Exercise. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company (the “Exercise Date”) as provided in this Section 1. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for Warrant Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 1(d) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Stock represented by such certificates.

(c) Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if at any time between the three (3) month anniversary of the Issuance Date and the Expiration Date the Registered Holder wishes to exercise this Warrant and there is no effective Registration Statement under the Securities Act registering the resale of the Warrant Stock by the Registered Holder at such time, then the Registered Holder may elect to exercise this Warrant or a portion hereof, and to pay for the Warrant Stock by way of a cashless exercise. If the Registered Holder wishes to effect a cashless exercise, the Registered Holder shall deliver the Exercise Notice duly executed by such Registered Holder or by such Registered Holder’s duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate in writing prior to the date of such exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Warrant Stock computed according to the following equation:

; where

X = the number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued to the Registered Holder.

Y = the Warrant Stock purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant Stock being exercised.

A = the Fair Market Value (defined below) of one share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date.

B = the Exercise Price (as adjusted pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant).

C = the Closing Sale Price ending on the Trading Day before the Exercise Date if exercised on the Exercise Date before 4:00:00 p.m, New York time, or if exercised on the Exercise Date after 4:00:00 p.m. New York time, then the Closing Sale Price on the Exercise Date.

For purposes of this Section 1(c), the “Fair Market Value” of one share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date shall have one of the following meanings:

(1) if the Common Stock is traded on (A) a national securities exchange or (B) over- the-counter, the Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the average of the VWAP (as hereinafter defined) over a ten (10) Trading Day (as hereinafter defined) period ending on the Trading Day before the Exercise Date; or

(2) if neither (1)(A) nor 1(B) is applicable, the Fair Market Value shall be at the commercially reasonable price per share which the Company could obtain on the Exercise Date from a willing buyer (not a current employee or director) for shares of Common Stock sold by the Company, from authorized but unissued shares, as determined jointly by the Company’s Board of Directors and the Registered Holders (as hereinafter defined) representing more than 50% of the aggregate amount of all of the then outstanding Warrants. “Registered Holders” means all of the holders of the Warrants issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

For illustration purposes only, if this Warrant entitles the Registered Holder the right to purchase 100,000 shares of Warrant Stock and the Registered Holder were to exercise this Warrant for 50,000 shares of Warrant Stock at a time when the Exercise Price was reduced to $1.00 and the Fair Market Value and the Closing Sale Price of each share of Common Stock was $2.00 on the Exercise Date, as applicable, the cashless exercise calculation would be as follows:

X = 50,000 ($2.00-$1.00)

$2.00

X = 25,000

Therefore, the number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued to the Registered Holder after giving effect to the cashless exercise would be 25,000 shares of Warrant Stock and the Company would issue the Registered Holder a new Warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of Warrant Stock, reflecting the portion of this Warrant not exercised by the Registered Holder. For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Stock issued in the cashless exercise transaction described pursuant to Section 1(c) shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Registered Holder, and the holding period for the shares of Warrant Stock shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date of the Registered Holder’s acquisition of the Warrant.

(d) Delivery to Registered Holder. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part, and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter (the “Warrant Stock Delivery Date”), the Company will (i) cause the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to deliver the Warrant Stock to the Registered Holder or its designee by crediting the account of the Registered Holder’s or such designee’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system, or (ii) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in DWAC, deliver a certificate or certificates to the Registered Holder or its designee for the number of shares of Warrant Stock to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled. In the event that the Registered Holder exercises the Warrant in part only, the Company shall issue a new warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Warrant Stock equal (giving effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such shares purchased by the Registered Holder upon such exercise as provided in Section 1(a).

(e) Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Registered Holder, if the Company fails to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Stock pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Stock Delivery Date, and if after such date the Registered Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Registered Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Registered Holder of the Warrant Stock which the Registered Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Registered Holder the amount by which (x) the Registered Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of shares of Warrant Stock that the Company was required to deliver to the Registered Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Registered Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of shares of Warrant Stock for which such exercise was not honored or deliver to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Registered Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Registered Holder $1,000. The Registered Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Registered Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.

(f) Registered Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Registered Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise, to the extent (but only to the extent) that the Registered Holder or any of the Registered Holder’s affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (as defined herein) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Registered Holder that the Company is not representing to the Registered Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Registered Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 1(f) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Registered Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Registered Holder, and the submission of an Exercise Notice shall be deemed to be the Registered Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Registered Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. Upon the written or oral request of a Registered Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm orally and in writing to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Registered Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Registered Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 1(f), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall in no event exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Registered Holder and the provisions of this Section 1(f) shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(f) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

2. Adjustments.

(a) Stock Splits and Stock Dividends. If the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in Common Stock shall be paid in respect of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record date of such dividend, be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be proportionately decreased.

(b) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (each, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Registered Holder shall have the right to receive, for each share of Warrant Stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Registered Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Registered Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Registered Holder’s right to exercise such warrant into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 2(b) and insuring that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

(c) Distributions. In addition to any other adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if the Company shall declare or make any cash dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the then current Exercise Price shall be reduced by the amount or fair market value (determined jointly by the Company and the Registered Holders) of such Distribution; provided, that the Exercise Price shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the par value per share of the Common Stock. If the amount or fair market value of all such Distributions exceeds the then current Exercise Price, then the Registered Holder shall receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, an amount payable in cash equal to the amount of such excess.

(d) Adjustment Certificate. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall promptly mail to the Registered Holder a certificate setting forth (i) a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price after such adjustment and (iii) the kind and amount of stock or other securities or property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment.

3. Transfers.

(a) Warrant Register. The Company will maintain a register containing the name and address of the Registered Holder of this Warrant. Until any transfer of this Warrant is made in the warrant register, the Company may treat the Registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes; provided, however, that if this Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not be required to) treat the bearer hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any Registered Holder may change such Registered Holder’s address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change.

4. RESERVED.

5. Termination. This Warrant (and the right to purchase securities upon exercise hereof) shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the Expiration Date.

6. Notices of Certain Transactions. In case:

(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, or

(b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or

(c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, or

(d) of any Fundamental Transaction,

then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the Registered Holder of this Warrant a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up or Fundamental Transaction is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up) are to be determined. Failure to send such notice shall not act to invalidate any such transaction.

If the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures in Section 15. All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during such period.

(d) “Principal Market” means the NYSE MKT, or if NYSE MKT is not the principal trading market for the Common Stock, then the principal securities exchange or securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded, or the over-the-counter market or the electronic bulletin board for such security.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Company and Executive entered into that certain employment agreement, effective as of June 10, 2004 (“Employment Agreement”), which sets forth the terms and conditions of Executive’s employment with the Company; and

WHEREAS, Company and Executive desire to amend the Employment Agreement so that the Employment Agreement complies with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the Company and Executive agree as follows:

| 1. | Defined Terms. Any capitalized term used herein but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Employment Agreement.

| 2. | Amendments. The Employment Agreement is hereby amended, as follows:

| a. | Section 2 of the Employment Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:

“2. Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue, unless otherwise terminated as provided herein, until the later of (a) December 31, 2012, or (b) the closing date, termination or expiration, of that certain merger by and among the Company, DSSIP, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Lexington Technology Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Term”).”

| b. | Section 9(b)(i) and (ii) are hereby deleted in their entirety and replaced as follows:

“(b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8(e) or otherwise by Company without “Good Cause”:

(i) Executive shall be paid all unpaid salary, earned bonuses, vacation and other benefits accrued through the date of termination on or before a date that is 2 months and 15 days following the calendar year in which this Agreement is terminated, and shall receive such other benefits, such as health insurance continuation coverage under COBRA, as may be required by law;

(ii) Executive shall receive as severance payment in an amount equal to eighteen (18) months of Executive’s annual salary at the rate in effect as of the date of Executive’s termination. Such severance payment shall be made in a lump sum on the earlier of (A) the date that is six months after the date of the Executive’s separation from service, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), with the Company or (B) the Executive’s date of death.”

| c. | Section 10(a) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:

“(a) For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to the Company:

(i) upon (x) the acquisition of more than 50% of the ownership of the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v) or (y) the acquisition of at least 80% of the gross fair market value of the assets of the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii). A change in control shall not include the acquisition of additional control by a shareholder of the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vi)(C); or

(ii) if any person or entity, together with all “affiliates” and “associates” (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) of such person or entity, shall become the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than 50% of either (A) the combined voting power of the Company’s then-outstanding securities having the right to vote in an election of the Company’s Board of Directors (“Voting Securities”) or (B) the then-outstanding shares of all class of stock of the Company.”

| d. | A new Section 14(h) is hereby added to the Employment Agreement as follows:

“Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to contrary, if any amounts due to the Executive hereunder constitute compensation deferred (“Deferred Compensation”) under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan, for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, and such Deferred Compensation is subject to interest and excise tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code (such interest and excise tax collectively referred to herein as “409A Excise Tax”), the Company shall pay to Executive an additional amount (“409A Gross-Up Payment”) such that the net amount retained by Executive, after deduction of any Federal, state and local income and employment taxes, shall equal the sum of the Federal, state and local income and employment taxes imposed upon the 409A Gross-Up Payment and the 409A Excise Tax. For purposes of determining the amount of the 409A Gross-Up Payment, the Executive shall be deemed to pay Federal income tax at the highest marginal rate of Federal income taxation in the calendar year in which the 409A Gross-Up Payment is to be made and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation in the state and locality of Executive’s residence in the calendar year in which the 409A Gross-Up Payment is to be made, net of the maximum reduction in Federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. Should any amount of Deferred Compensation payable hereunder become includible in Executive’s gross income because this Agreement fails to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder, a payment may be made to Executive under this Agreement equal to the amount of Deferred Compensation so includible in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409-3(j)(4)(vii); provided, however, that the amount of such payment may not exceed the amount required to be included in Executive’s gross income as a result of a failure of this Agreement to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder.”

- 2 -

| e. | A new Section 14(i) is hereby added to the Employment Agreement as follows:

“Notwithstanding anything set forth above in Subsection 9(d) of the Agreement or the new Section 14(h) with respect to payments the Company may make to, or on behalf of, the Executive, with respect to a 280G Gross-Up Payment and/or a 409A Gross-Up Payment, the maximum amount the Company will pay pursuant to Subsection 9(d) and new Section 14(h) shall be an aggregate of $50,000.”

| 3. | Subject to the modifications set forth in Section 2 of this Amendment, the Employment Agreement remains in effect.

| 4. | This Amendment (i) constitutes the entire agreement between the Company and Executive with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior discussions, agreements and understandings relating thereto, and (ii) may not be amended or modified except by a writing signed by the Company and Executive.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and Executive have executed this Amendment as of the date first written above.

(b) Section 2 of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“Term. The Term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue through December 31, 2014, unless otherwise terminated or extended as provided herein (the “Term”). Following the initial Term, this Agreement shall be renewed automatically for a succeeding period of five (5) years (the “Renewal Period”) on the same terms and conditions as set forth herein unless either party shall, at least ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the initial Term, provide written notice to the other party of its intention not to renew this Agreement. The period during which Executive is employed by the Company, including the initial Term and any Renewal Period, is hereinafter referred to as the “Employment Period”.

| Re: | Severance Provisions

Dear Phil:

The purpose of this letter is to set forth the terms of your severance in the event of the termination of your employment with Document Security Systems, Inc. (the “Company”). The effective date of this letter (the “Effective Date”) shall be the date of the consummation of the transactions contemplated under that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 1, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, DSSIP, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Lexington Technology Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation. If the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement are not consummated whether or not the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, then this letter shall be automatically terminated contemporaneously therewith and be of no force or effect.

1. Termination of Employment. At all times, your employment with the Company is “at-will”, which means that employment with the Company may be terminated at anytime by either you or the Company with or without Cause or Good Reason (in each case as hereinafter defined), upon written notice to the other party, subject only to the entitlements and liabilities set forth in paragraphs 2 through 4, below; provided, that the Company shall only terminate your employment by approval of the Board of Directors.

2. Accrued Compensation. Upon termination of your employment for any reason by the Company, including, without limitation on account of death or Disability (as hereinafter defined), the Company will pay or provide you (or, in the case of your death, your estate): (i) any unpaid base salary earned through the date of termination payable when otherwise due in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices and any accrued but unused vacation in accordance with the Company’s policy; (ii) reimbursement for any unreimbursed expenses incurred through the date of termination for which you submitted sufficient documentation no later than thirty (30) days after your termination of employment and which are reasonable and necessary business and entertainment expenses in connection with the performance of your duties and responsibilities to the Company, such reimbursements to be made no later than ninety (90) days after your termination; and (iii) all other payments, benefits or fringe benefits to which you may be entitled under the terms of any applicable compensation arrangement or benefit, equity or fringe benefit plan or program or grant up to the date of termination (collectively, “Accrued Compensation”).

3. Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason. In the event your employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause, excluding on account of death or Disability, or by you for Good Reason, and provided you execute a customary general release, which shall include a customary non-disparagement provision, of claims provided to you by the Company (the "Release"), and such Release is effective and irrevocable prior to the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of your termination, you will be entitled to, and the Company will pay to you:

(a) As severance pay, your then current base salary following the date of your termination, payable in equal biweekly installments in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices, as if your employment had continued for an additional twelve (12) months; provided, however, that any installments that otherwise would have been paid prior to the expiration of the period for revoking the Release shall be accumulated and paid on the first payroll date immediately following the expiration of such revocation period and all other installments shall be paid when otherwise due hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the sixty (60) day period for executing and not revoking the Release begins in one calendar year and ends in another calendar year, then any severance installments that otherwise would have been paid in the first calendar year shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the first payroll date in the second calendar year after the expiration of the revocation period and all other installments shall be paid when otherwise due hereunder.

(b) provided you have elected continued coverage under the Company's group health plans pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986, as amended ("COBRA"), for the first twelve (12) months of such COBRA coverage, your portion of the COBRA premiums shall be no more than the portion of the premiums you would have paid for such coverage under the health plan as an active employee and the Company will provide a monthly subsidy toward the remaining cost of coverage. If you obtain other employment that offers substantially similar health benefits or otherwise are no longer eligible for COBRA coverage during that twelve month period, the Company's obligations under this Subsection (b) shall terminate. To the extent you are eligible for COBRA coverage beyond such twelve month period, you will be responsible for the full amount of the COBRA premium. To the extent required to avoid adverse tax consequences or penalties under Section 105(h) of the Code if the health plan is self-insured or any similar provision applicable to a fully-insured health plan under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as it may be amended from time to time, the Company will instead directly pay you during the twelve-month or lesser remaining period a fully taxable monthly payment equal to the Company's contribution toward the COBRA premiums. The Company will gross-up such payment for tax purposes so that the economic benefit is the same to you as if such benefit was being provided on a non-taxable basis to you.

Any tax gross-up payment shall be paid to you no later than the end of your taxable year following the year in which the applicable taxes are actually remitted to the taxing authorities. In the event of a tax audit or litigation addressing the existence or amount of any such liability, then any additional gross-up payments must be made by the end of your taxable year following the year in which the taxes that are the subject of the audit or litigation are remitted to the taxing authority, or where as a result of such audit or litigation no taxes are remitted, the end of your taxable year following the taxable year in which the audit is completed or there is a final and nonappealable settlement or other resolution of the litigation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payments, reimbursements or benefits under this Subsection (b) are considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code Section 409A") and the sixty (60) day period for executing and not revoking the Release begins in one calendar year and ends in another calendar year, then any such payments, reimbursements or benefits that otherwise would have been paid or provided in the first calendar year shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the first payroll date in the second calendar year after the expiration of the revocation period and all other amounts shall be paid or provided when otherwise due hereunder.

4. Termination for Cause or Without Good Reason. In the event your employment with the Company is terminated for Cause by the Company or by you without Good Reason, you will only be entitled to, and the Company will only pay to you the Accrued Compensation.

5. Definition of Cause. For purposes of this letter, “Cause” will mean (i) your willful misconduct or gross negligence with regard to the Company that is materially adverse to the Company; (ii) your willful and continued failure to attempt to substantially perform your duties with the Company which failure is not remedied within fifteen (15) days of written notice from the Company specifying the details thereof; (iii) your commission of a felony or crime involving moral turpitude or the commission of any act or omission involving dishonesty in the performance of your duties and responsibilities as an employee of the Company, or fraud; (iv) your misappropriation of funds or assets of the Company for personal use or willful violation of the Company’s policies or standards of business conduct; or (v) your breach of any provision contained in the Restrictive Covenant Agreement (as defined below).

6. Definition of Good Reason. For purposes of this agreement, “Good Reason” will mean, without your express written consent, the occurrence of any of the following events which is not remedied within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Company of written notice from you specifying the details thereof (the "Cure Period"): (i) any material diminution (except temporarily during period of Disability) in your duties or responsibilities; (ii) a reduction by the Company in your base salary; (iii) a material breach by the Company of any provisions of this agreement or any other agreement between you and the Company which such breach is not remedied by the Company within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of written notice of the same; and (iv) your being required to relocate to a principal place of employment more than fifty (50) miles from your present office location. You must provide the written notice to the Company of the Good Reason event within sixty (60) days of the initial occurrence of the event. Your actual termination due to such event must occur no later than thirty (30) days after the end of the Cure Period to be considered a termination for Good Reason.

7. Termination on Death. Your employment shall terminate automatically upon your death and your estate shall only be entitled to receive the Accrued Compensation.

8. Termination Due to Disability. Your employment shall terminate in the event that, due to physical or mental illness or injury, you are unable to perform the essential functions of your position(s), with or without reasonable accommodation, for a total of three (3) months in any 12-month period (“Disability”). If your employment is terminated under this Section, you shall be entitled only to receive the Accrued Compensation.

9. No Duty to Mitigate; No Offset. You will be under no obligation to seek other employment and, except as provided in this letter, there will be no offset against any amounts owing to you under this letter on account of any remuneration attributable to any subsequent employment that you may obtain.

10. Restrictive Covenants. You shall be bound by the terms and conditions of that certain Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Agreement, dated as of even date herewith (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”), between the Company and you, which is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof.

11. Bonus; Options. On the Effective Date of this letter, the Company shall make payment of a bonus to you in an amount equal to $25,000. In addition, on September 21, 2012, the Company granted to you options to acquire 25,000 shares of the common stock, par value $0.02 per share, of the Company at an exercise price equal to $4.26 per share subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2004 Employee Stock Option Plan. Such options shall vest in full on the Effective Date but otherwise terminate in the event of the termination of the Merger Agreement.

12. Code Section 409A Compliance.

a. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Code Section 409A or comply with an exemption from the application of Code Section 409A and, accordingly, all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A.

b. Neither you nor the Company shall take any action to accelerate or delay the payment of any monies and/or provision of any benefits in any matter which would not be in compliance with Code Section 409A.

c. A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the form or timing of payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement under which (and to the extent) deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A is paid, references to a “termination” or “termination of employment” or like references shall mean separation from service. A “separation from service” shall not occur under Code Section 409A unless you have completely severed your relationship with the Company or you have permanently decreased your services to 20% or less of the average level of bona fide services over the immediately preceding 36 month period (or the full period if you have been providing services for less than 36 months). A leave of absence shall only trigger a termination of employment that constitutes a separation from service at the time required under Code Section 409A. If you are deemed on the date of separation from service with the Company to be a “specified employee”, within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B) and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time, or if none, the default methodology, then with regard to any payment or benefit that is required to be delayed in compliance with Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of your separation from service or (ii) the date of the your death. In the case of benefits required to be delayed under Code Section 409A, however, you may pay the cost of benefit coverage, and thereby obtain benefits, during such six-month delay period and then be reimbursed by the Company thereafter when delayed payments are made pursuant to the next sentence. On the first day of the seventh month following the date of your separation from service or, if earlier, on the date of your death, all payments delayed pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to you in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

d. With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits subject to Code Section 409A, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided that the foregoing clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Code Section 105(b) solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect. All reimbursements shall be reimbursed in accordance with the Company’s reimbursement policies but in no event later than the calendar year following the calendar year in which the related expense is incurred or such earlier date as set forth herein.

e. If under this Agreement, an amount is to be paid in two or more installments, for purposes of Code Section 409A, each installment shall be treated as a separate payment.

f. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall not be liable to you or any other person if any payment or benefit which is to be provided pursuant to this Agreement and which is considered deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A otherwise fails to comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Code Section 409A.

13. Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify you and hold you harmless to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against and in respect to any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), losses, and damages resulting from your good faith performance of your duties and obligations with the Company. If any claim, action, suit, or proceeding is brought against you for which you may seek indemnification under this subsection, you shall promptly notify the Company in writing thereof, and the Company shall have the right to assume and control the defense thereof, unless an actual or potential conflict of interest between the Company’s interests and your interests exists.

Upon termination of your employment for any reason by the Company, including, without limitation on account of death or Disability (as hereinafter defined), the Company will pay or provide you (or, in the case of your death, your estate): (i) any unpaid base salary earned through the date of termination payable when otherwise due in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices and any accrued but unused vacation in accordance with the Company’s policy; (ii) reimbursement for any unreimbursed expenses incurred through the date of termination for which you submitted sufficient documentation no later than thirty (30) days after your termination of employment and which are reasonable and necessary business and entertainment expenses in connection with the performance of your duties and responsibilities to the Company, such reimbursements to be made no later than ninety (90) days after your termination; and (iii) all other payments, benefits or fringe benefits to which you may be entitled under the terms of any applicable compensation arrangement or benefit, equity or fringe benefit plan or program or grant up to the date of termination (collectively, “Accrued Compensation”).

| 3. | Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason. In the event your employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause, excluding on account of death or Disability, or by you for Good Reason, and provided you execute a customary general release, which shall include a customary non-disparagement provision, of claims provided to you by the Company (the "Release"), and such Release is effective and irrevocable prior to the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of your termination, you will be entitled to, and the Company will pay to you:

(a) As severance pay, your then current base salary following the date of your termination, payable in equal biweekly installments in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices, as if your employment had continued for an additional twelve (12) months; provided, however, that any installments that otherwise would have been paid prior to the expiration of the period for revoking the Release shall be accumulated and paid on the first payroll date immediately following the expiration of such revocation period and all other installments shall be paid when otherwise due hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the sixty (60) day period for executing and not revoking the Release begins in one calendar year and ends in another calendar year, then any severance installments that otherwise would have been paid in the first calendar year shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the first payroll date in the second calendar year after the expiration of the revocation period and all other installments shall be paid when otherwise due hereunder.

(b) provided you have elected continued coverage under the Company's group health plans pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986, as amended ("COBRA"), for the first twelve (12) months of such COBRA coverage, your portion of the COBRA premiums shall be no more than the portion of the premiums you would have paid for such coverage under the health plan as an active employee and the Company will provide a monthly subsidy toward the remaining cost of coverage. If you obtain other employment that offers substantially similar health benefits or otherwise are no longer eligible for COBRA coverage during that twelve month period, the Company's obligations under this Subsection (b) shall terminate. To the extent you are eligible for COBRA coverage beyond such twelve month period, you will be responsible for the full amount of the COBRA premium. To the extent required to avoid adverse tax consequences or penalties under Section 105(h) of the Code if the health plan is self-insured or any similar provision applicable to a fully-insured health plan under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as it may be amended from time to time, the Company will instead directly pay you during the twelve-month or lesser remaining period a fully taxable monthly payment equal to the Company's contribution toward the COBRA premiums. The Company will gross-up such payment for tax purposes so that the economic benefit is the same to you as if such benefit was being provided on a non-taxable basis to you.

Any tax gross-up payment shall be paid to you no later than the end of your taxable year following the year in which the applicable taxes are actually remitted to the taxing authorities. In the event of a tax audit or litigation addressing the existence or amount of any such liability, then any additional gross-up payments must be made by the end of your taxable year following the year in which the taxes that are the subject of the audit or litigation are remitted to the taxing authority, or where as a result of such audit or litigation no taxes are remitted, the end of your taxable year following the taxable year in which the audit is completed or there is a final and nonappealable settlement or other resolution of the litigation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payments, reimbursements or benefits under this Subsection (b) are considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code Section 409A") and the sixty (60) day period for executing and not revoking the Release begins in one calendar year and ends in another calendar year, then any such payments, reimbursements or benefits that otherwise would have been paid or provided in the first calendar year shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the first payroll date in the second calendar year after the expiration of the revocation period and all other amounts shall be paid or provided when otherwise due hereunder.

| 4. | Termination for Cause or Without Good Reason. In the event your employment with the Company is terminated for Cause by the Company or by you without Good Reason, you will only be entitled to, and the Company will only pay to you the Accrued Compensation.

| 5. | Definition of Cause. For purposes of this letter, “Cause” will mean (i) your willful misconduct or gross negligence with regard to the Company that is materially adverse to the Company; (ii) your willful and continued failure to attempt to substantially perform your duties with the Company which failure is not remedied within fifteen (15) days of written notice from the Company specifying the details thereof; (iii) your commission of a felony or crime involving moral turpitude or the commission of any act or omission involving dishonesty in the performance of your duties and responsibilities as an employee of the Company, or fraud; (iv) your misappropriation of funds or assets of the Company for personal use or willful violation of the Company’s policies or standards of business conduct; or (v) your breach of any provision contained in the Restrictive Covenant Agreement (as defined below).

| 6. | Definition of Good Reason. For purposes of this agreement, “Good Reason” will mean, without your express written consent, the occurrence of any of the following events which is not remedied within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Company of written notice from you specifying the details thereof (the "Cure Period"): (i) any material diminution (except temporarily during period of Disability) in your duties or responsibilities; (ii) a reduction by the Company in your base salary; (iii) a material breach by the Company of any provisions of this agreement or any other agreement between you and the Company which such breach is not remedied by the Company within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of written notice of the same; and (iv) your being required to relocate to a principal place of employment more than fifty (50) miles from your present office location. You must provide the written notice to the Company of the Good Reason event within sixty (60) days of the initial occurrence of the event. Your actual termination due to such event must occur no later than thirty (30) days after the end of the Cure Period to be considered a termination for Good Reason.

| 7. | Termination on Death. Your employment shall terminate automatically upon your death and your estate shall only be entitled to receive the Accrued Compensation.

| 8. | Termination Due to Disability. Your employment shall terminate in the event that, due to physical or mental illness or injury, you are unable to perform the essential functions of your position(s), with or without reasonable accommodation, for a total of three (3) months in any 12-month period (“Disability”). If your employment is terminated under this Section, you shall be entitled only to receive the Accrued Compensation.

| 9. | No Duty to Mitigate; No Offset. You will be under no obligation to seek other employment and, except as provided in this letter, there will be no offset against any amounts owing to you under this letter on account of any remuneration attributable to any subsequent employment that you may obtain.

| 10. | Restrictive Covenants. You shall be bound by the terms and conditions of that certain Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Agreement, dated as of even date herewith (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”), between the Company and you, which is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof.

| 11. | Bonus; Options. On the Effective Date of this letter, the Company shall make payment of a bonus to you in an amount equal to $10,000. In addition, on September 21, 2012, the Company granted to you options to acquire 15,000 shares of the common stock, par value $0.02 per share, of the Company at an exercise price equal to $4.26 per share subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2004 Employee Stock Option Plan. Such options shall vest in full on the Effective Date but otherwise terminate in the event of the termination of the Merger Agreement.

| 12. | Code Section 409A Compliance.

| a. | The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Code Section 409A or comply with an exemption from the application of Code Section 409A and, accordingly, all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A.

| b. | Neither you nor the Company shall take any action to accelerate or delay the payment of any monies and/or provision of any benefits in any matter which would not be in compliance with Code Section 409A.

| c. | A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the form or timing of payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement under which (and to the extent) deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A is paid, references to a “termination” or “termination of employment” or like references shall mean separation from service. A “separation from service” shall not occur under Code Section 409A unless you have completely severed your relationship with the Company or you have permanently decreased your services to 20% or less of the average level of bona fide services over the immediately preceding 36 month period (or the full period if you have been providing services for less than 36 months). A leave of absence shall only trigger a termination of employment that constitutes a separation from service at the time required under Code Section 409A. If you are deemed on the date of separation from service with the Company to be a “specified employee”, within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B) and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time, or if none, the default methodology, then with regard to any payment or benefit that is required to be delayed in compliance with Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of your separation from service or (ii) the date of the your death. In the case of benefits required to be delayed under Code Section 409A, however, you may pay the cost of benefit coverage, and thereby obtain benefits, during such six-month delay period and then be reimbursed by the Company thereafter when delayed payments are made pursuant to the next sentence. On the first day of the seventh month following the date of your separation from service or, if earlier, on the date of your death, all payments delayed pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to you in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

| d. | With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits subject to Code Section 409A, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided that the foregoing clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Code Section 105(b) solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect. All reimbursements shall be reimbursed in accordance with the Company’s reimbursement policies but in no event later than the calendar year following the calendar year in which the related expense is incurred or such earlier date as set forth herein.

| e. | If under this Agreement, an amount is to be paid in two or more installments, for purposes of Code Section 409A, each installment shall be treated as a separate payment.

| f. | Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall not be liable to you or any other person if any payment or benefit which is to be provided pursuant to this Agreement and which is considered deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A otherwise fails to comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Code Section 409A.

| 13. | Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify you and hold you harmless to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against and in respect to any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), losses, and damages resulting from your good faith performance of your duties and obligations with the Company. If any claim, action, suit, or proceeding is brought against you for which you may seek indemnification under this subsection, you shall promptly notify the Company in writing thereof, and the Company shall have the right to assume and control the defense thereof, unless an actual or potential conflict of interest between the Company’s interests and your interests exists.
