-5-
EXHIBIT N
3.3 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Securities will be acquired for investment for Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and the Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. The Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation in any of the Securities to such person or to any third person.
3.4 Access to Information. The Investor has been given access to the Company and has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the Company’s business, prospects, properties and condition (financial or otherwise) and the terms and conditions of the offering and sale of the Securities. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify in any respect the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 2 of this Agreement or the right of the Investor to rely thereon.
3.5 Investment Experience. The Investor acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself and bear the economic risk of its investment, including the complete loss thereof, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities.

3.6 Accredited Investor. The Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rule 501 of Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act.
3.7 Restricted Securities.

In this connection, the Investor is familiar with Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. The Investor understands Rule 144 is not currently available for the sale of the Securities.
3.8 Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Securities may bear one or all of the following legends:
(a) “NEITHER THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (B) IF REASONABLY REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. THESE SECURITIES AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.”

5.10 Expenses. Regardless of whether the Closing is effected, except as otherwise provided in the Note, each party shall pay all costs and expenses that it incurs with respect to the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that the Company agrees to promptly pay all legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by counsel to the Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
5.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, THE INVESTOR AND THE COMPANY HEREBY WAIVE, AND COVENANT THAT NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR THE INVESTOR WILL ASSERT, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY ISSUE IN ANY PROCEEDING, WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE, IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE, CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS
AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR THEREOF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE INVESTOR AND THE COMPANY HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE. The Company acknowledges that it has been informed by the Investor that the provisions of this Section 5.11 constitute a material inducement upon which the Investor is relying and will rely in entering into this Agreement. The Investor or the Company may file an original counterpart or a copy of this Section 5.11 with any court as written evidence of the consent of the Investor and the Company to the waiver of the right to trial by jury.
5.12 Further Assurances. At any time or from time to time after any Closing, the Company, on the one hand, and the Investor, on the other hand, agrees to cooperate with each other, and at the request of the other party, to execute and deliver any further instruments or documents and to take all such further action as the other party may reasonably request in order to evidence or effectuate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby relating to the purchase contemplated herein and to otherwise carry out the intent of the parties hereunder.
5.13 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such nonbreaching or nondefaulting party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring.
