Representations and Warranties of the Investors
Each Investor, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
4.1 No Registration. The Investor understands that the Shareshave 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 investment intent and the accuracy of the Investor’s representations as expressed herein or otherwise made pursuant hereto.
4.2 Investment Intent. The Investor is acquiring the Shares for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof.
4.3 Investment Experience. The Investor has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to HTL so that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in HTL and has the capacity to protect its own interests.
4.4 Speculative Nature of Investment. The Investor acknowledges that its investment in HTL is highly speculative and entails a substantial degree of risk and the Investor is in a position to lose the entire amount of such investment.
4.5 Access to Data. The Investor has had an opportunity to discuss HTL’s business, management and financial affairs with HTL’s management. The Investor has had an opportunity to ask questions of officers of HTL, which questions were answered to its satisfaction. The Investor acknowledges that any business plans prepared by HTL have been, and continue to be, subject to change and that any projections included in such business plans or otherwise are necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions underlying the projections will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results.
4.6 Accredited Investor. The Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(a), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
4.7 Foreign Investor. If the Investor is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), such Investor hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Shares.

- 4 -
4.8 Residency. The residency of the Investor (or, in the case of a partnership or corporation, such entity’s principal place of business) is correctly set forth on Exhibit A.
4.9 Restriction on Resales. The Investor acknowledges that the Sharesmust be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act and qualified by state authorities or unless an exemption from such registration or qualification is available. The HTL Parties are under no obligation to register or qualify the Shares. There is no assurance that the HTL Parties will register or be able to successfully complete the registrationof the Shares. The Investor further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Shares, and on requirements relating to HTL which are outside of the Investor’s control, and which the HTL Parties are under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy. The Investor further understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act will be available or, if available, that such exemption will allow Investor to dispose of or otherwise transfer any or all of the Shares in the amounts or at the times the Investor might propose.
4.10 Rule 144. The Investor is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act which permit limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including among other things, the existence of a public market for the shares, the availability of certain current public information about HTL, the resale occurring not less than one year after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold, the sale being effected through a “broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a “market maker” and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. The Investor understands that the current public information referred to above is not now available and the HTL Parties have no present plans to make such information available. The Investor acknowledges and understands that HTL may not be satisfying the current public information requirement of Rule 144 at the time the Investor wishes to sell the Shares and that, in such event, the Investor may be precluded from selling such securities under Rule 144, even if the other requirements of Rule 144 have been satisfied. The Investor acknowledges that, in the event all of the requirements of Rule 144 are not met, registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration will be required for any disposition of the Shares. The Investor understands that, although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell restricted securities received in a private offering other than in a registered offering or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk.
4.11 No Public Market. The Investor understands and acknowledges that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by HTL and that the HTL Parties have made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for HTL’s securities.

The Investor has not engaged any brokers, finders or agents, and none of the HTL Parties nor any other Investor has, nor will, incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by the Investor, any liability for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or any similar charges in connection with this Agreement.

The Investor acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review this Agreement, the exhibits and schedules attached hereto and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with its own legal counsel.
