the Securities may not be sold unless they and the transaction in which they are
to be sold has been registered under the Securities Laws or an exemption from
registration is available for such sale. Purchaser accepts that the Securities

answers from Sandbox 's representatives. Purchaser is knowledgeable and
experienced in financial and business matters and, on the basis of the
information it received concerning Sandbox 's condition and operations,

its investment in the Securities and the risks attending such investment.
Further, in light of its financial position, Purchaser is able to bear the
economic risks of investment in the Securities.

and agrees that Sandbox may imprint on any certificate evidencing the Securities
an appropriate legend or notification to the effect that such shares are not
freely transferable and may be transferred only in compliance with applicable
securities laws. Purchaser further consents and agrees that Sandbox may give
appropriate "stop order" instructions in this regard to any transfer agent for
the Securities.

against any and all liabilities, losses, damages and expenses (including
