(ii) At the time of the origination of contact concerning this Agreement and the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Purchaser was outside of the United States.

(iii) The Purchaser realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if, notwithstanding such representations, the Purchaser has in mind merely acquiring the Shares for a fixed or determinable period in the future, or for a market rise, or for sale if the market does not rise. The Purchaser does not have any such intention.

(iv) The Purchaser will not, during the period commencing on the date of issuance of the Shares and ending on the first anniversary of such date, or such shorter period as may be permitted by Regulation S or other applicable securities law (the “Restricted Period”), offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares in the United States, or to a U.S. Person for the account or for the benefit of a U.S. Person, or otherwise in a manner that is not in compliance with Regulation S.

(viii) The transactions contemplated by this Agreement have not been pre-arranged with a buyer located in the United States or with a U.S. Person, and are not part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(ix) Neither the Purchaser nor any person acting on its behalf has undertaken or carried out any activity for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States, its territories or possessions, for any of the Shares. The Purchaser agrees not to cause any advertisement of the Shares to be published in any newspaper or periodical or posted in any public place and not to issue any circular relating to the Shares, except such advertisements that include the statements required by Regulation S under the Securities Act, and only offshore and not in the U.S. or its territories, and only in compliance with any local applicable securities laws.

(x) The Purchaser has carefully reviewed and completed the investor questionnaire annexed hereto as Exhibit A.

(o) No Advertisements or Direct Selling Effort. The Purchaser is not receiving the Shares as a result of or subsequent to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or via the Internet, or presented at any seminar or meeting. The Purchaser has not acquired the Shares as a result of, and will not itself engage in, any “directed selling efforts” (as defined in Regulation S) in the United States in respect of any of the Shares which would include any activities undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for the resale of any of the Shares; provided, however, that the Purchaser may sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares pursuant to registration of any of the Shares pursuant to the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or under an exemption from such registration requirements and as otherwise provided herein.

(p) Legend. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares shall bear a restricted legend (the “Legend”), in the form and substance as set forth in Section 3(d) hereof, prohibiting the offer, sale, pledge or transfer of the securities, except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (ii) in accordance with the applicable provisions of Regulation S, promulgated under the Securities Act, (iii) pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act (if available), and (iv) pursuant to any other exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or for estate planning purposes (subject to any escrow restrictions).

(q) Economic Considerations. The Purchaser is not relying on Company, or its affiliates or agents with respect to economic considerations involved in this investment. The Purchaser has relied solely on his or her own advisors.

(r) Compliance with Laws. Any resale of the Shares during the “distribution compliance period” as defined in Rule 902(f) to Regulation S shall only be made in compliance with exemptions from registration afforded by Regulation S. Further, any such sale of the Shares in any jurisdiction outside of the United States will be made in compliance with the securities laws of such jurisdiction. The Purchaser will not offer to sell or sell the Shares in any jurisdiction unless the Purchaser obtains all required consents, if any.

(s) Investment Commitment. The Purchaser’s overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the Purchaser’s net worth, and an investment in the Shares will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive.

(t) Receipt of Information. The Purchaser has received all documents, records, books and other information pertaining to the Purchaser’s investment in Company that has been requested by the Purchaser.

(u) No Reliance. Other than as set forth herein, the Purchaser is not relying upon any other information, representation or warranty by Company or any officer, director, stockholder, agent or representative of Company in determining to invest in the Shares. The Purchaser has consulted, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Purchaser, with the Purchaser’s own advisers as to the financial, tax, legal and related matters concerning an investment in the Shares and on that basis believes that its investment in the Shares is suitable and appropriate for the Purchaser.

(v) No Governmental Review. The Purchaser is aware that no federal or state agency has (i) made any finding or determination as to the fairness of this investment, (ii) made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares or Company, or (iii) guaranteed or insured any investment in the Shares or any investment made by Company.

(w) Potential Loss of Investment. The Purchaser understands that an investment in the Shares is a speculative investment which involves a high degree of risk and the potential loss of his or her entire investment.

(x) Price Determined Arbitrarily. The Purchaser understands that the price of the Shares bear no relation to the assets, book value or net worth of Company and were determined arbitrarily by Company. The Purchaser further understands that there is a substantial risk of further dilution on his or her investment in Company.

No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by both Parties. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.

12. Survival of Agreements, Representations and Warranties, etc. All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
