(m) Regulation S. Neither the Company nor any affiliate or any person acting on the Company’s behalf, has made or is aware of any “directed selling efforts” in the United States, which is defined in Regulation S to be any activity undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for any of the Shares being purchased hereby.

(p) Company Funding Agent. In the event the Company has any agreement for compensation with any party to raise the funds on behalf of the Company (“Company Funding Agent Agreement”), the Company will disclose the terms of that Company Funding Agent Agreement to Purchaser prior to the execution of this Agreement. Following the execution of this Agreement, the Attorney-in-Fact shall be the Company contact for all information relating to the status of funding, location of Shares, settlement of the payment of the Purchase Price and any other information requests of the Company.

The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section 3.1.

3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a) Organization; Authority. The Purchaser is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation with the requisite power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The acquisition of the Shares to be purchased by the Purchaser hereunder has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Purchaser. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors rights and remedies or by other general principles of equity.

(b) Investment Intent. The Purchaser is acquiring the Shares to be purchased by it hereunder, for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Shares, or any part thereof or interest therein. Purchaser’s right, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Shares shall be in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws.

(c) Experience of Purchaser. The Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of

an investment in the Shares to be acquired by it hereunder, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment.

(d) Ability of Purchaser to Bear Risk of Investment. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares to be acquired by it hereunder and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

(e) Reliance. The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) the Shares being offered and sold to it hereunder are being offered and sold without registration under the Securities Act in a private placement that is exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and (ii) the availability of such exemption depends in part on, and that the Company will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of, the foregoing representations and such Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.

(f) Regulation S. Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (A) the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, are being sold in reliance upon an exemption from registration afforded by Regulation S; and that such Shares have not been registered with any state securities commission or authority; (B) pursuant to the requirements of Regulation S, the Shares may not be transferred, sold or otherwise exchanged unless in compliance with the provisions of Regulation S and/or pursuant to registration under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an available exemption hereunder; and (C) Purchaser is under no obligation to register the Shares under the Securities Act or any state securities law, or to take any action to make any exemption from any such registration provisions available except as agreed in Section 3.1 (c) above.

Purchaser is not a U.S. person and is not acquiring the Shares for the account of any U.S. person; (B) no director or executive officer of Purchaser is a national or citizen of the United States; and (C) it is not otherwise deemed to be a “U.S. Person” within the meaning of Regulation S.

Purchaser was not formed specifically for the purpose of acquiring the Shares purchased pursuant to this Agreement.

Purchaser is purchasing the Shares for its own account and risk and not for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person as defined in Regulation S and no other person has any interest in or participation in the Shares or any right, option, security interest, pledge or other interest in or to the Shares. Purchaser understands, acknowledges and agrees that it must bear the economic risk of its investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time and that prior to any such offer or sale, the Company may require, as a condition to effecting a transfer of the Shares, an opinion of counsel, acceptable to the Company, as to the registration or exemption therefrom under the Securities Act and any state securities acts, if applicable.

Purchaser will, after the expiration of the Restricted Period, as set forth under Regulation S Rule 903(b) (3) (iii) (A), offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares only in accordance with Regulation S, or pursuant to an available exemption under the Securities Act and, in any case, in accordance with applicable state securities laws or following the effective date of a Registration of the Shares by the Company. The transactions contemplated

by this Agreement have neither been pre-arranged with a purchaser who is in the U.S. or who is a U.S. Person, nor are they part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the United States federal securities laws.

The offer leading to the sale evidenced hereby was made in an “offshore transaction.” For purposes of Regulation S, Purchaser understands that an “offshore transaction” as defined under Regulation S is any offer or sale not made to a person in the United States and either (A) at the time the buy order is originated, the purchaser is outside the United States, or the seller or any person acting on his behalf reasonably believes that the purchaser is outside the United States; or (B) for purposes of (1) Rule 903 of Regulation S, the transaction is executed in, or on or through a physical trading floor of an established foreign exchange that is located outside the United States or (2) Rule 904 of Regulation S, the transaction is executed in, on or through the facilities of a designated offshore securities market, and neither the seller nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the transaction has been prearranged with a buyer in the U.S.

Neither the Purchaser nor any affiliate or any person acting on the Purchaser’s behalf, has made or is aware of any “directed selling efforts” in the United States, which is defined in Regulation S to be any activity undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for any of the Shares being purchased hereby.

Purchaser understands that the Company is the seller of the Shares which are the subject of this Agreement, and that, for purpose of Regulation S, a “distributor” is any underwriter, dealer or other person who participates, pursuant to a contractual arrangement, in the distribution of securities offered or sold in reliance on Regulation S and that an “affiliate” is any partner, officer, director or any person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with any person in question. Purchaser agrees that Purchaser will not, during the Restricted Period set forth under Rule 903(b)(iii)(A), act as a distributor, either directly or through any affiliate, nor shall it sell, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey the Shares other than to a non-U.S. Person.

Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares will bear a legend in the following form:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN OFFERED AND SOLD IN AN “OFFSHORE TRANSACTION” IN RELIANCE UPON REGULATION S AS PROMULGATED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. ACCORDINGLY, THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OTHER THAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATION S, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, THE AVAILABILITY OF WHICH IS TO BE ESTABLISHED TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE COMPANY.

All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party to which the Indemnified Party is entitled hereunder (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten (10) Business Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party.

No right of indemnification under this Section shall be available as to a particular Indemnified Party if there is a non-appealable final judicial determination that such Losses arise solely out of the negligence or bad faith of such Indemnified Party in performing the obligations of such Indemnified Party under this Agreement or a breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under this Section is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold such Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses in respect of which this Section would apply by its terms (other than by reason of exceptions provided in this Section), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other and the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions or omissions that resulted in such

Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether there was a judicial determination that such Losses arise in part out of the negligence or bad faith of the Indemnified Party in performing the obligations of such Indemnified Party under this Agreement or the Indemnified Party’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include any attorneys’ or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party.

(d) Non-Exclusivity. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any obligation or liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.

5.10 Counterpart Signatures.

In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof.

5.11 Publicity. The Company and the Purchaser shall consult with each other in issuing any press releases or otherwise making public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and neither party shall issue any such press release or otherwise make any such public statement without the prior written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; unless counsel for the

5.12 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a reasonable substitute therefore, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.

5.13 Limitation of Remedies. With respect to claims by the Company or any person acting by or through the Company, or by the Purchaser or any person acting through the Purchaser, for remedies at law or at equity relating to or arising out of a breach of this Agreement, liability, if any, shall, in no event, include loss of profits or incidental, indirect, exemplary, punitive, special or consequential damages of any kind.

If the Purchase Price is not received by the Company within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the Shares to the Custodian in the name of the Purchaser, the Company may, at its discretion, demand recall of the Shares, issue or cause to be issued a stop transfer order or other order impeding the sale and delivery of any of the Shares, and terminate this Agreement. The Company may recall the Shares by providing notice to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.3. If the Company recalls the Shares, the Purchaser will use its best efforts, and will use its best efforts to cause the Custodian to, transmit and deliver the Shares to the Company within 20 days following the deliver of the recall notice pursuant to Section 5.3.

The Company hereby agrees that it hereby binds itself, if requested in writing to the aforementioned address of the Company, by the Purchaser or their designate or assignee, that it shall deliver, within five (5) days of such demand, an opinion of counsel regarding the transferability or status of the Shares; provided, however, that if the Company’s counsel requires additional information or representations from or with respect to the Purchaser and/or its designate or assignee, then such opinion shall

not be required until five (5) days following the delivery of such additional information or representations.

5.17. Duty for Due Diligence.
