8. Warrant Holder is acquiring the Shares for investment for Warrant Xxxxxx's
own account and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
distribution, and not otherwise with any present intention of selling,
transferring or otherwise distributing the Shares.
9. Warrant Holder understands that the Shares have not been registered under
the Securities Act of 1933 ("1933 Act") by reason of their issuance in a
transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery
requirements of the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act.

or registered under any state securities law ("State Securities Law") by
reason of applicable exemptions thereunder.
(b) Warrant Holder understands that the applicability of the exemptions

things, the bona fide nature of Warrant Holder's intent to acquire the
Shares' for investment and not with a view to their resale or
distribution.
(c) Warrant Holder understands that Warrant Holder must hold the Shares
indefinitely, that Warrant Holder may not dispose of the Shares unless
registered under the 1933 Act and registered or qualified under
applicable State Securities Laws, or there are exemptions from
registration and qualification.
(d) Warrant Holder further understands that Warrant Holder cannot be
assured that any exemption from the registration or qualification
requirements will be available if Warrant Holder should desire to sell
or transfer the Shares, and therefore that Warrant Holder may not be
able to sell or otherwise transfer the Shares under the circumstances,
in the amount, or at the time that Warrant Holder may desire.
10. Warrant Holder understands that certificates evidencing the Shares will be
imprinted with such legend or legends as in the opinion of legal counsel for

prohibits the transfer of the Shares unless the Shares are registered or
such registration is not required, substantially as follows:
THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD,
TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS (1) THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE

FOR THE HOLDER OF THE SECURITIES REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY,
STATING THAT SUCH SALE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT OR HYPOTHECATION IS EXEMPT
