1.2 Repurchase
Option. For a period of one year from the date of this
Agreement (the “Repurchase Period”), the Company shall have an irrevocable,
exclusive option, but not the obligation, to repurchase all or any portion of
the Warrant (the "Repurchase Option"). The Repurchase Option shall be
exercisable at a price equal to the Purchase Price (the "Repurchase Price"). The
Repurchase Option shall be exercisable by the Company, at any time, by

election to exercise its Repurchase Option. The Repurchase Notice shall provide
(i) that the Company is exercising its Repurchase Option in connection with this
Agreement; (ii) whether the Company is repurchasing all of or a portion of, the
Warrant (the Repurchased Warrant”) and (iii) the aggregate Repurchase Price to
be paid for the Repurchased Warrant. The Repurchase Notice shall be
accompanied by a check made out in the name of the Purchaser, or other
immediately available funds, for an amount equal to the Repurchase Price. Upon
delivery of the Repurchase Notice and the Repurchase Price, the Warrant so
repurchased and all rights and interests therein or relating thereto shall be
deemed canceled and the Company shall have the right to retain and transfer to
its own name the Repurchased Warrant. The Repurchase Option set forth in this
Section may be assigned by the Company in whole or in part in its sole
discretion. The Repurchase Option set forth in this Section may be assigned by
the Company in whole or in part in its sole discretion. If at any time
during the Repurchase Period, the Company consummates (a) a merger or other
business combination with an operating business or (b) a transaction pursuant to
which the Company ceases to be a “shell company,” as defined by Rule 12b-2 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and a “blank check company,” as
defined by Rule 419 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Repurchase
Option shall terminate thereupon.

SECTION
3: REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER
The
undersigned Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company as
follows:
3.1 Transfer
Restrictions. Neither the Warrant, nor, upon issuance, the
Warrant Shares, has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities
Act”) and cannot be sold or otherwise transferred without an effective
registration or an exemption therefrom, and as of the date hereof, may not be
sold pursuant to the exemptions provided by Section 4(1) of the Securities Act,
in accordance with the letter from Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx, Chief of the Office of
Small Business Policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of
Corporation Finance, to Xxx Worm of NASD Regulation, Inc., dated January 21,
2000.
3.2 Experience. The
undersigned has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters
that the undersigned is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investment
in the Company and of making an informed investment decision. The
undersigned has adequate means of providing for the undersigned's current needs
and possible future contingencies and the undersigned has no need, and
anticipates no need in the foreseeable future, to sell the Warrant for which the
undersigned subscribes or, upon issuance, the Warrant Shares. The
undersigned is able to bear the economic risks of this investment and,
consequently, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the undersigned
is able to hold the Warrant or, upon issuance, the Warrant Shares, for an
indefinite period of time and has sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of the
undersigned's entire investment in the Company in the event such loss should
occur. Except as otherwise indicated herein, the undersigned is the sole party
in interest as to its investment in the Company, and it is acquiring the Warrant
solely for investment for the undersigned’s own account and has no present
agreement, understanding or arrangement to subdivide, sell, assign, transfer or
otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Warrant subscribed for or, upon
issuance, the Warrant Shares, to any other person.
3.3 Investment; Access to
Data. The undersigned has carefully reviewed and understands
the risks of, and other considerations relating to, a purchase of the Warrant
and the underlying Warrant Shares and an investment in the Company. The
undersigned has been furnished materials relating to the Company, the private
placement of the Warrants or anything else that it has requested and has been
afforded the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the
terms and conditions of the offering and obtain any additional information which
the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or
expense. Representatives of the Company have answered all inquiries
that the undersigned has made of them concerning the Company, or any other
matters relating to the formation and operation of the Company and the offering
and sale of the Warrants. The undersigned has not been furnished any offering
literature other than the materials that the Company may have provided at the
request of the undersigned; and the undersigned has relied only on such
information furnished or made available to the undersigned by the Company as
described in this Section. The undersigned is acquiring the Warrant for
investment for the undersigned's own account, not as a nominee or agent and not
with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
thereof. The undersigned acknowledges that the Company is a start-up
company with no current operations, assets or operating history, which may
possibly cause a loss of Purchaser’s entire investment in the
Company.

(b) The
execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this Agreement and
compliance therewith and the purchase and sale of the Warrant will not result in
a violation of and will not conflict with, or result in a breach of, any of the
terms of, or constitute a default under, any provision of state or Federal law
to which Purchaser is subject, or any mortgage, indenture, agreement,
instrument, judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation or other restriction to
which the Purchaser is a party or by which the undersigned Purchaser is bound,
