C. AUTHORIZATION; BINDING OBLIGATIONS. All corporate action on the part of
the Corporation, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the due

obligations of the Corporation hereunder and the authorization, sale, issuance
and delivery of the shares pursuant hereto has been taken. This agreement, when
executed and delivered, will be the valid and binding obligation of the
Corporation enforceable against the Corporation, in accordance with its terms,
except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or other laws of general application affecting enforcement of

contract, agreement, instrument or contract to which it is party or by which it
or any of its property is bound or of any judgment, decree, order, writ,
statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Corporation or its properties
which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on
the financial condition, results of operations, or assets of the Corporation.
The execution, delivery, and performance of and compliance with this agreement
and the issuance and sale of the shares pursuant hereto, will not, with or
without the passage of time or giving of notice, result in any violation or

2
Bylaws, or of any provision of any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement,
instrument or contract to which it is party or by which it or any of its
