representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement):
4.1 Requisite Power and Authority. Purchaser has all necessary power and authority to execute
and deliver this Agreement and the Related Agreements and to carry out their provisions. All
action on Purchaser’s part required for the lawful execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
Related Agreements has been taken. Upon their execution and delivery, this Agreement and the
Related Agreements will be valid and binding obligations of Purchaser, enforceable in accordance
with their terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights, (b) as
limited by general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable remedies, and

4.2 Investment Representations. Purchaser understands that neither the Shares nor the
Conversion Shares have been registered under the Securities Act. Purchaser also understands that
the Shares are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in the
Securities Act based in part upon Purchaser’s representations contained in the Agreement.
Purchaser hereby represents and warrants as follows:

Bears Economic Risk. Purchaser has substantial experience in evaluating and
investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company so
that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the
capacity to protect its own interests. Purchaser must bear the economic risk of this investment
indefinitely unless the Shares (or the Conversion Shares) are registered pursuant to the Securities
Act, or an exemption from registration is available. Purchaser understands that the Company has no
present intention of registering the Shares, the Conversion Shares or any shares of its Common
Stock. Purchaser also understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration
under the Securities Act will be available and that, even if available, such exemption may not
allow Purchaser to transfer all or any portion of the Shares or the Conversion Shares under the
circumstances, in the amounts or at the times Purchaser might propose.
(b) Acquisition
for Own Account. Purchaser is acquiring the Shares and the Conversion Shares
for Purchaser’s own account for investment only, and not with a view towards their distribution.
14

Can Protect Its Interest. Purchaser represents that by reason of its, or of its
management’s, business or financial experience, Purchaser has the capacity to protect its own
interests in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, and the Related
Agreements. Further, Purchaser is aware of no publication of any advertisement in connection with
the transactions contemplated in the Agreement.
(d) Accredited
Investor. Purchaser represents that it is an “accredited investor” within the
meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

the opportunity to review the Company’s operations and facilities. Purchaser has also had the
opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from, the Company and its management regarding
the terms and conditions of this investment.
(f) Rule 144.
Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares, and, if issued, the
Conversion Shares are “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act as in effect from time to time and must be held indefinitely unless they are
subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is
available. Purchaser has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144, which permits
limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, including, among other things: the availability of certain current public information
about the Company, the resale occurring following the required holding period under Rule 144 and
the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations.
(g) Residence.
If Purchaser is an individual, then Purchaser resides in the state or province
identified in the address of Purchaser set forth on Exhibit A; if Purchaser is a partnership,
corporation, limited liability company or other entity, then the office or offices of Purchaser in
which its investment decision was made is located at the address or addresses of Purchaser set
forth on Exhibit A.
(h) Foreign
Investors. If Purchaser is not a United States person (as defined by Section
7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), Purchaser hereby represents that it
has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with
any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal
requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange
restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any government or other consents that may need to
be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to
the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of the Shares. The Company’s offer and sale
and Purchaser’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Shares will
not violate any applicable securities or other laws of Purchaser’s jurisdiction.
