3.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with each Investor in reliance upon such Investor’s representations and warranties to the Company, which by such Investor’s execution of this Agreement such Investor hereby confirms, that the Shares to be received by such Investor, the Warrant Shares and the Conversion Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) will be acquired for investment for such Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.

3.6 Restricted Securities. Each Investor understands that the Shares it is purchasing (and the Conversion Shares) 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 securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, each 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. Each Investor acknowledges that the Company filed a registration statement for a public offering of its common stock, which was withdrawn effective December 3, 2001. Each Investor

understands that this offering is not intended to be part of the public offering, and that the Investor will not be able to rely on the protection of Section 11 of the Securities Act.
3.7 Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Series F Preferred Stock (or the Conversion Shares) and the Warrants (or the Warrant Shares) may bear one or all of the following legends:
(a) “THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”). THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO A CERTAIN VOTING PROVISION ENTERED INTO BY AND AMONG THE INVESTORS.”
(b) “THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, MORTGAGED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OTHER THAN IN COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION S OF THE ACT OR WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR THE AVAILABILITY OF AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”
(c) Any other legends required by the laws of the State of Delaware or any other applicable blue sky or state securities laws.
