SECTION 4.
----------
4.1 Purchaser Representations and Warranties. The Purchaser hereby
----------------------------------------
acknowledges, represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Company and its
affiliates as follows:
(a) The Purchaser has received, read carefully and understands the
Documents and has had an adequate opportunity to consult his own attorney,
accountant or investment advisor (his "Advisors") with respect to the
suitability of the investment contemplated hereby for the Purchaser. The
Purchaser further acknowledges that the Purchaser and his Advisors have also
made such other investigation, review, examination and inquiry concerning the
Company and its business and affairs as they have deemed appropriate so as to
understand the nature of the investment in the Shares, including without
limitation, the merits and risks thereof.
(b) The Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for the Purchaser's own account
as principal, not as a nominee or agent, for investment purposes only, and not
with a view to, or for, resale, distribution or fractionalization thereof in
whole or in part in violation of the Securities Act. Further, the Purchaser
does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any
person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third
person, with respect to the Shares for which the Purchaser is subscribing.
(c) The Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into this
Subscription Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. The execution and
delivery of this Subscription Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement
have been duly authorized by the Purchaser, and this Subscription Agreement
constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Purchaser.
(d) The Purchaser acknowledges the Purchaser's understanding that the
offering and sale of the Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under
the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and the provisions of
Regulation D promulgated thereunder ("Regulation D"). In furtherance thereof,
the Purchaser represents and warrants to and agrees with the Company and its
affiliates as follows:
(i) The Purchaser understands that the basis for the exemption from
registration may not be present if, notwithstanding such representations,
the Purchaser's intention is merely to acquire 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. Accordingly, the Purchaser does not have any such
intention;
(ii) The Purchaser has the financial ability to bear the economic
risk of the Purchaser's investment, which is speculative in nature, has
adequate means for providing for the Purchaser's current needs and personal
contingencies and has no need for liquidity with respect to the Purchaser's
investment in the Company; and
-5-
(iii) The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
the prospective investment in the Shares. If other than an individual, the
Purchaser also represents it has not been organized for the purpose of
acquiring the Shares.
(e) The Purchaser is an "accredited investor," as that term is defined in
Rule 501 of Regulation D (as described in Appendix I hereto).
----------
(f) The Purchaser:
(i) Has been furnished with copies of the Documents. The Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that the Documents supercede all written
information regarding the Company that the Purchaser may have received
prior to the date of the Documents. The Purchaser has carefully read the
Documents and has relied solely (except as indicated in subsections (ii)
and (iii) below) on the information contained in the Documents (including
all exhibits thereto), provided, however, that the foregoing does not limit
or modify the representations and warranties of the Company contained in
Section 3 hereof or the right of the Purchaser to rely thereon;
(ii) Has been provided an opportunity for a reasonable period of time
prior to the date hereof to obtain additional information concerning the
offering of the Shares hereunder and the Company to the extent the Company
possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or
expense;
(iii) Has been given the opportunity for a reasonable period of time
prior to the date hereof to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the
Company or its representatives concerning the terms and conditions of the
offering of the Shares and other matters pertaining to this investment, and
has been given the opportunity for a reasonable period of time prior to the
date hereof to obtain such additional information necessary to verify the
accuracy of the information contained in the Documents or that which was
otherwise provided in order for the Purchaser to evaluate the merits and
risks of purchase of the Shares to the extent the Company possesses such
information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense;
(iv) Has not been furnished with any oral representation or oral
information in connection with the offering of the Shares which is not
contained herein or in the Documents; and
(v) Has determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for the
Purchaser and that at this time the Purchaser could bear a complete loss of
such investment.
-6-
(g) The Purchaser is not relying on the Company or its affiliates with
respect to economic considerations involved in this investment.
(h) This offer is not transferable or assignable by the Purchaser unless
the Purchaser complies with the terms of transfer hereof. The Purchaser further
represents, warrants and agrees that the Purchaser will not sell or otherwise
transfer any of the Shares issued in connection with the this Subscription
Agreement, without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption
therefrom, and that the Purchaser fully understands and agrees that the
Purchaser must bear the economic risk of the Purchaser's purchase because, among
other reasons, none of the Shares have been registered under the Securities Act
or under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold,
pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless subsequently registered under
the Securities Act and under the applicable securities laws of such states or an
exemption from such registration is available. In particular, the Purchaser is
aware that the Shares are "restricted securities," as such term is defined in
Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), and may not be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 unless all of the conditions of Rule 144 are met. The
Purchaser also understands that, except as otherwise provided in the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is under no obligation to register
any of the Shares on the Purchaser's behalf or to assist the Purchaser in
complying with any exemption from registration under the Securities Act or
applicable state securities laws. The Purchaser further understands that sales
or transfers of the Shares are further restricted by state securities laws and
the provisions of this Subscription Agreement.
(i) No representations or warranties have been made to the Purchaser by
the Company, or any officer, employee, agent, affiliate or subsidiary of the
Company, other than the representations of the Company contained herein, and in
subscribing for the Shares the Purchaser is not relying upon any representations
other than those contained herein.
(j) Any information which the Purchaser has heretofore furnished to the
Company with respect to the Purchaser's financial position and business
experience is correct and complete as of the date of this Subscription Agreement
and, if there should be any material change in such information, the Purchaser
will immediately furnish such revised or corrected information to the Company.
(k) The Purchaser understands and agrees that the certificates for the
Shares shall bear the following legend, or a similar legend to the same effect,
until (i) the Shares shall have been registered under the Securities Act
pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and effectively been disposed of
in accordance with a registration statement that has been declared effective; or
(ii) in the opinion of counsel for the Company such Shares may be sold without
registration under the Securities Act or any applicable "Blue Sky" or state
securities laws:
-7-
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE
NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND ALL SUCH SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AS SET FORTH IN THIS
CERTIFICATE. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE
SOLD, TRANSFERRED, OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE
OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN
OPINION OF COUNSEL, REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO COUNSEL FOR THE
COMPANY, TO THE EFFECT THAT THE PROPOSED SALE, TRANSFER, OR
DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTUATED WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER
THE ACT."
(l) 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 pursuant to the offering hereunder will not cause such
overall commitment to become excessive.
(m) The Purchaser: is not (i) a director, officer, or substantial security
holder of the Company (a "Related Party"), (ii) a subsidiary, affiliate or other
closely-related person of a Related Party, or (iii) any person, company or
entity in which a Related Party has a substantial direct or indirect interest.
(n) No Federal or state agency has made any findings or determination as to
the fairness of the offering of the Shares hereunder (or any part thereof) for
public investment, or any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares (or any
part thereof).
