ARTICLE IV
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
OF THE INVESTOR
As an inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement,
the Investor hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
SECTION 4.01. Authorization. The Investor has all requisite
corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and, assuming the
due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties thereto, this
Agreement when executed and delivered by the Investor will constitute its valid
and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws relating to
creditors' rights and general principles of equity. The execution of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been
duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Investor.
SECTION 4.02. Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This
Agreement is made with the Investor in reliance upon the Investor's
representation to the Company, which by the Investor's execution of this
Agreement the Investor hereby confirms, that Shares to be received by such
Investor will be acquired for investment for the Investor's own account (or the
account of its respective Affiliates), not as a nominee or agent, for the
purpose of investment and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any
part thereof in violation of any applicable Law, and that
15
such Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in
or otherwise distributing the same to any other Person in violation of any
applicable Law. By executing this Agreement, the Investor further represents
that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with
any Person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such Person or to any
third Person, with respect to any of the Shares. The Investor understands that
the offer and sale of the Shares has not been, and will not be, registered under
the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among
other things, the bona fide nature of the Investor's investment intent and the
accuracy of the Investor's representations as expressed herein.
SECTION 4.03. Disclosure of Information. The Investor
represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers
from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the
Shares and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the
Company. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations
and warranties of the Company in Article III of this Agreement or the right of
the Investor to rely thereon.
SECTION 4.04. Investment Experience. The Investor acknowledges
that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its
investment, 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 Shares. The Investor further represents that it has not been organized
for the sole purpose of acquiring the Shares. The Investor can bear the economic
risk of its investment and is able, without impairing the Investor's financial
condition, to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a
complete loss of the Investor's investment.
SECTION 4.05. Restricted Securities. The Investor understands
that the Shares it is purchasing are characterized as "restricted securities"
under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the
Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such
laws and applicable regulations such Shares may be resold without registration
under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In the absence
of any effective registration statement covering the Shares or an available
exemption from registration under the Securities Act, the Shares must be held
indefinitely. In this connection, such Investor represents that it is familiar
with Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations
imposed thereby and by the Securities Act, including without limitation the Rule
144 condition that current information about the Company be available to the
public. Such Investor understands and agrees that, except as provided herein,
the Company is not under any obligation to register the Shares under the
Securities Act or to comply with Regulation A or any other exemption and that
Rule 144 is not currently available for sales of the Shares.
SECTION 4.06. Brokers' Fees. The Investor has taken no action
which would give rise to any claim by any other Person for any brokerage
commissions, finders' fees or the like relating to the sale of the Shares to the
Investor.
SECTION 4.07. No Public Market. The Investor understands and
acknowledges that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued
by the Company and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market
will ever exist for the Company's securities.
16
SECTION 4.08. Securities Filings. To the knowledge of the
Investor, all disclosures required to be made by the Investor under federal and
state securities laws have been made and are true, accurate and complete in all
material respects.
ARTICLE V
INDEMNIFICATION
SECTION 5.01. Survival of Representations and Warranties. The
representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement shall
survive until the 18th month after the Closing; provided, however, that the
representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.07, 3.13 and
3.19 shall survive until the expiration of the relevant statute of limitations.
Neither the period of survival nor the liability of the Company for breaches of
representations and warranties shall be reduced by any investigation made at any
time by or on behalf of the Investor pursuant to any provisions of this
Agreement. If written notice of a claim has been given prior to the expiration
of the applicable survival period by an Investor to the Company, then the
relevant representations and warranties shall survive as to such claim, until
such claim has been finally resolved.
SECTION 5.02. Indemnification by the Company.
(a) The Investor and its Affiliates, and their respective
officers, directors, employees, managers, agents, successors and assigns (in
each case, on the date hereof, each an "Indemnified Party") shall be indemnified
and held harmless by the Company (the "Indemnifying Party") for and against any
and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses, interest,
awards, judgments and penalties (including reasonable attorneys' and
consultants' fees and expenses) actually suffered or incurred by them (including
in any action brought or otherwise initiated by any of them) (hereinafter a
"Loss"), arising out of or resulting from (i) the breach of any representation
or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or (ii) the breach of any
covenant or agreement by the Company in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.02(a), unless and until the aggregate
amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Indemnifying
Party equals or exceeds $10,000, after which the Indemnifying Party shall be
liable for all Losses; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party's total
indemnity obligation hereunder shall not exceed the Payment Amount.
(b) To the extent that the Company's undertakings set forth in
this Section 5.02 may be unenforceable, the Company shall contribute the maximum
amount that it is permitted to contribute under applicable Law to the payment
and satisfaction of all Losses incurred by any Indemnified Party.
17
SECTION 5.03. Notice of Loss; Third Party Claims.
(a) During the period in which the indemnification obligations
under this Article V are in effect, an Indemnified Party shall give the
Indemnifying Party written notice of any matter which an Indemnified Party has
reasonably determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification
under this Agreement, within sixty (60) days of such determination, stating the
estimated amount of the Loss, if known, and method of computation thereof, and
containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which
such right of indemnification is claimed or arises; provided, however, that the
failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any
of its obligations under this Article V except to the extent the Indemnifying
Party shall be materially prejudiced thereby.
(b) If an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any third
party claim, action, suit, arbitration, inquiry, proceeding, investigation
audit, demand or assessment (each, a "Third Party Claim") against it or which
may give rise to a claim for Loss under this Article V, within thirty (30) days
of the receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying
Party written notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the
failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any
of its obligations under this Article V except to the extent that the
Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure, and shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or liability that it
may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Article V. If the
Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the
Indemnified Party hereunder against any Losses that may result from such Third
Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control
the defense of such Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its
choice if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party
within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such notice from the Indemnified
Party; provided, however, that if either: (x) the Indemnifying Party does not so
assume such defense or (y) there exists or is reasonably likely to exist a
conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable judgment
of the Indemnified Party for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled
to retain its own counsel (up to one counsel for all Indemnified Parties), at
the reasonable expense of the Indemnifying Party. In the event that the
Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake any such defense against any
such Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate
with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the
Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party's expense, all witnesses,
pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party's
possession or under the Indemnified Party's control relating thereto as is
reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. Similarly, in the event the
Indemnified Party is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any
such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the
Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party,
at the Indemnifying Party's expense, all such witnesses, records, materials and
information in the Indemnifying Party's possession or under the Indemnifying
Party's control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnified
Party. No such Third Party Claim may be settled by the Indemnifying Party
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be
unreasonably withheld), unless such settlement contains a full release of such
Indemnified Party.
18
SECTION 5.04. Survival of Covenants and Agreements. The
covenants and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement shall
survive the Closing and will remain in full force and effect in accordance with
their terms.

acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
SECTION 6.05. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof
and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral,
between the Company and the Investor with respect to the subject matter hereof.
SECTION 6.06. Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned
by operation of law or otherwise without the express written consent of the
Company and the Investor (which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole

or more Affiliates of the Investor without the consent of the Company.
SECTION 6.07. Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended or

warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered by
the other party pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance with any of the
agreements of the other party or conditions to such party's obligations
contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth
in an instrument in writing signed by the party to be bound thereby. Any waiver
of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any
other term or condition of this Agreement. The failure of either party hereto to
assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such
rights. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to,
and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.
SECTION 6.09. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for the
provisions of Article VII relating to indemnified parties, this Agreement shall

SECTION 6.10. Specific Performance. The Company and Investor
acknowledge and agree that they would be irreparably damaged if any of the

adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, in
addition to any other right or remedy to which the Company or the Investor may
be entitled, at law or in equity, they shall be entitled to enforce any
provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to
temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or
threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting
any bond or other undertaking.
SECTION 6.11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed

applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State. All
Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and
determined exclusively in any New York federal court sitting in the Borough of
Manhattan of The City of New York, provided, however, that if such federal court
does not have jurisdiction over such Action, such Action shall be heard and
determined exclusively in any New York state court sitting in the Borough of
Manhattan of The City of New York. Consistent with the preceding sentence, the
parties hereto hereby (a) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or
state court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan of The City of New York for the
purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by
any party hereto and (b) irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert by way of
motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not
subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its
property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is
brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or
that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may not
be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts.

HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY
ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES
THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED,
EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF
LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT
HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
BY THIS AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.12.
SECTION 6.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and
