representations and warranties set forth herein and subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, Seller hereby sells, transfers, and assigns to
Purchaser, and Purchaser hereby purchases from Seller, the Shares for a purchase

2. Representations and Warranties of Seller. Seller hereby represents
and warrants to Purchaser as follows:
2. 1 Ownership of the Shares. Seller is the lawful record and
beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to, the Shares. The
Shares are owned by Seller free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security
interests, equities, claims, options, licenses, charges and assessments, and are
subject to no restrictions with respect to transferability by Seller to
Purchaser except compliance with applicable securities laws. Upon delivery of
the Shares to Purchaser, Seller shall have conveyed to Purchaser good and
marketable title in and to the Shares free and clear of all liens, encumbrances,
security interests, equities, claims, options, licenses, charges, assessments
and restrictions whatsoever. The Shares do not represent more than 10% of all
shares of Common Stock of Purchaser that Seller beneficially owns as of the
Effective Date, and for purposes of determining such percentage ownership, all
shares of Common Stock of Purchaser that are subject to outstanding options or
warrants, whether vested or unvested, held by Seller or an affiliate of Seller
as of the Effective Date shall be deemed beneficially owned by Seller. The
Shares do not exceed the maximum number of shares of Common Stock of Purchaser
that Seller, as of the Effective Date, could sell pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
2. 2 Authority. Seller represents and warrants that all
action by Seller necessary for the sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement
and the performance of Seller's obligations hereunder has been taken. Seller
further represents that this Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation
of Seller enforceable in accordance with its terms, that Seller has all right,
legal capacity, authority and requisite legal power to enter into this Agreement
and to carry out and perform Seller's obligations under the terms of this
Agreement. The execution and delivery of, and the performance of the obligations
under, this Agreement by Seller do not and will not contravene or result in any
breach of any law or of any regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any
court, tribunal, governmental body, authority, agency or instrumentality
applicable to Seller or the Shares, nor do or will such execution, delivery or
performance violate, conflict with or result in (or with notice or lapse of time
or both result in) a breach of or default under any term or provision of any
agreement, oral or written, to which Seller is a party or is bound or to which
the Shares are subject.
2. 3 Disclosure.
(a) (Seller to check and initial the box that applies):
Seller is currently an executive officer and/or a director
of Purchaser and, in such capacity, Seller is familiar with and fully informed
with respect to Purchaser's business, operations, financial condition, affairs
and prospects.
If Seller is a trust, then its trustee (or one of its
trustees) is a beneficial owner of the Shares, is currently an executive officer
and/or director of Purchaser and has executed this Agreement on behalf of such
trust, and by virtue of such relationship with Purchaser, such trustee is
familiar with and fully informed with respect to Purchaser's business,
operations, financial condition, affairs and prospects.
If Seller is a partnership, then its general partner (or an
officer or affiliate of its general partner) is a beneficial owner of the
Shares, is currently an executive officer and/or director of Purchaser and has
executed this Agreement on behalf of such partnership, and by virtue of such
relationship with Purchaser, such person is familiar with and fully informed
with respect to Purchaser's business, operations, financial condition, affairs
and prospects.

(or one of its executive officers) is a beneficial owner of the Shares, is
currently an executive officer and/or director of Purchaser and has executed
this Agreement on behalf of such corporation, and by virtue of such relationship
with Purchaser, such person is familiar with and fully informed with respect to
Purchaser's business, operations, financial condition, affairs and prospects.
(b) Seller has had an opportunity to seek the advice of counsel
with regard to the sale of the Shares under, and with regard to the other terms
of, this Agreement. Seller and/or Seller's advisors have had a reasonable
opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from Purchaser, or a person
or persons acting on its behalf, concerning this transaction, and to obtain
additional information, to the extent possessed by Purchaser or obtainable by
Purchaser without unreasonable effort or expense. To Seller's best knowledge and
belief,all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of Seller.

current financial data.

information concerning Purchaser or its business, operations, financial
condition, affairs or prospects that Seller has not disclosed in all material
respects to the Board of Directors of Purchaser.

broker's, finder's or other fee or commission in connection with this Agreement
or the transactions contemplated hereby by reason of any claim arising by,
through or under Seller.
2. 5 Adequacy of Consideration. The consideration Seller is receiving
in exchange for the consideration Seller is giving under this Agreement is fair,
just and reasonable. Seller is aware that the value of the Shares is subject to
considerable potential fluctuation and may now, or in the future, have an actual
value substantially above, or below, the Purchase Price Purchaser is paying
therefor, and it is possible that Seller might realize a higher price for the
Shares if Seller held them for an additional period. Seller has such knowledge
of business, financial and legal matters, and has had sufficient access to
experts on such matters, to assess the value of the Shares and the advisability
of this transaction.
2. 6 Miscellaneous Representations.
(a) Seller and/or Seller's advisors have such knowledge and
experience in financial, tax and business matters to enable Seller and/or them
to utilize the information made available to Seller and/or them in connection
with the sale of the Shares, to evaluate the merits and risks of the transaction
and to make an informed decision with respect thereto.
(b) Seller understands that the tax consequences to Seller
from the sale of the Shares depend on Seller's individual circumstances and
Seller has not received or relied on any advice from Purchaser or its agents or
representatives regarding such tax consequences.
3. Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser represents
and warrants that all action by Purchaser necessary for the purchase of the
Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the performance of Purchaser's obligations
hereunder has been taken. Purchaser further represents that this Agreement is a
legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser enforceable in accordance with
its terms. The execution and delivery of, and the performance of the obligations
under, this Agreement by Purchaser do not and will not contravene or result in
any breach of any law or of any regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of
any court, tribunal, governmental body, authority, agency or instrumentality,
nor do or will such execution, delivery or performance violate, conflict with or
result in (or with notice or lapse of time or both result in) a breach of or
default under any term or provision of any agreement, oral or written, to which
Purchaser is a party or is bound. Purchaser is not aware of any material
nonpublic information concerning Purchaser or its business, operations,
financial condition, affairs or prospects that Purchaser has not disclosed in
all material respects to Seller.
