3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF INVESTOR.

Each of the Investors, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to the Company as to itself and not as to any other Investor, that:

3.1 Organization. The Investor represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Company that the Investor has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

This Agreement, when executed and delivered, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Investor, enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies.

3.3 No Conflicts.

The Investor is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental or regulatory or self-regulatory agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under or contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof.

3.4 Investment Representations.

(a) The Investor is an “accredited investor”, as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in financial and business matters that the Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities.

(b) The Investor (i) has adequate means of providing for its current financial needs and possible contingencies, and has no need for liquidity of investment in the Company, (ii) can afford to hold unregistered Securities for an indefinite period of time and sustain a complete loss of the entire amount of the subscription, and (iii) has not made an overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable that is so disproportionate as to cause such overall commitment to become excessive.

(c) The Investor agrees and understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to the Investor in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and that, in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the Securities, the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the Investor’s representations and warranties, and compliance with the Investor’s covenants and agreements, set forth in this Agreement. The Investor further agrees with the Company that (i) no Securities were offered or sold to the Investor by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising, and in connection therewith, the Investor did not (1) receive or review any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in a newspaper or magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, whether closed circuit or generally available; or (2) attend any seminar meeting or industry investor conference whose attendees were invited by any general solicitation or general advertising. The Investor hereby acknowledges that the offering of the Securities has not been reviewed by the SEC or any state regulatory authority

since the offering of the Securities is intended to be exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act pursuant to Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Investor understands that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer the Securities unless they are registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available.

(d) The Investor has had access to the Company’s SEC Documents and other public filings.

(e) With respect to corporate tax and other economic considerations involved in an investment in the Securities, the Investor is not relying on the Company. The Investor has carefully considered and has, to the extent the Investor believes such discussion necessary, discussed with its professional legal, tax, accounting and financial advisors the suitability of an investment in the Securities for its particular tax and financial situation and has determined that the Securities are a suitable investment for the Investor.

(f) The Company has made available to the Investor all documents and information that the Investor has requested relating to an investment in the Securities.

(g) Subject to the Company’s disclosures in this Agreement and the SEC Documents, the Investor recognizes that the Company has generated no revenues to date, is not expected to have any products commercially available for a number of years, if at all, and that investment in the Company involves substantial risks, including loss of the entire amount of such investment and has taken full cognizance of and understands all of the risk factors relating to the purchase of the Securities.

(h) The Investor has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities.

4. COVENANTS.

4.1 Confidentiality. Each Investor hereby acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure of information regarding the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement may cause the Company to violate Regulation FD and each Investor agrees to keep such information confidential. The Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of any Investor in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or trading market, without the prior written consent of such Investor, except (i) as required by the federal securities laws and in connection with the registration statement contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or trading market regulations.

4.2 Restrictions on Transfer.

(a) Each Investor hereby agrees, severally and not jointly, that, except in accordance with a registration statement filed pursuant to Section 5.2 of this Agreement, it will not dispose of any of such Investor’s Securities (other than pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) or pursuant to a registration statement filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act) unless and until such Investor shall have (A) notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company

with a statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition and (B) if requested by the Company, furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company and the Company’s counsel, to the effect that such disposition will not require registration under the Securities Act. The restrictions on transfer imposed by this Section 4.2 shall cease and terminate as to the Securities held by an Investor when: (x) such Securities shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and sold by the holder thereof in accordance with such registration, or (y) on delivery of an opinion of the kind described in the preceding sentence with respect to such Securities. Each certificate evidencing the Securities shall bear an appropriate restrictive legend as set forth in Section 4.2(b), except that such legend shall not be required after a transfer is made in compliance with Rule 144 or pursuant to a registration statement or if the opinion of counsel referred to above is issued and provides that such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act. The Company agrees that pursuant to the prior sentence, it will, no later than five Business Days (“Business Day” shall mean any day banks are open for business in New York, New York) following (a) receipt by the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Securities issued with a restrictive legend, accompanied by a certification of the Investor in form suitable for processing by the Company that a prospectus has been delivered (in the case of sale pursuant to prospectus, a “Prospectus Letter”) or customary supporting documentation, including legal opinion if required pursuant to Clause (B) above, “Supporting Documentation”) and (b) receipt by the Company of notice of such delivery to the transfer agent and Prospectus Letter or Supporting Documentation, as the case may be (such notice to be sent by facsimile to the attention of the Company’s president and CEO at the fax number set forth in Section 8.6 hereof) deliver or cause to be delivered (evidence of deposit for next day delivery with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service shall be deemed delivery) to such Investor a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section. In the event the Prospectus Letter or Supporting Documentation is not in form suitable for processing by to the Company, the five Business Days shall toll until the Company receives a Prospectus Letter or Supporting Documentation that is in form suitable for processing.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.2(a), no registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by an Investor of the Securities to a subsidiary, member, partner, stockholder or affiliate of that Investor, if the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if such transferee were an Investor hereunder.

(c) It is understood that, subject to Sections 4.2(a) and 4.2(b), the certificates evidencing the Securities will bear the following legends:

(i) THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AVAILABLE EXEMPTIONS FROM SUCH REGISTRATION, PROVIDED THAT THE SELLER DELIVERS TO THE COMPANY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH OPINION IS

REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY) CONFIRMING THE AVAILABILITY OF SUCH EXEMPTION.

(ii) Any legend required by the laws of any other applicable jurisdiction.

4.3 Securities Compliance. The Company shall take all action necessary to comply with any federal or state securities laws applicable to the transactions contemplated hereunder.

5. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

5.1 Registrable Shares. As used herein the term “Registrable Security” means (a) each of the Shares, (b) the shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and (c) any Common Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable on the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security that is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for, or in replacement of, the shares referenced in clause (a) above; provided, however, that with respect to any particular Registrable Security held by an Investor, such security shall cease to be a Registrable Security when, as of the date of determination, (a) it has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of pursuant thereto, or (b) registration under the Securities Act is no longer required for the immediate public distribution of any particular Registrable Shares held by that Investor and its affiliates. In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization or other change in corporate structure affecting the Common Stock, such adjustment shall be made in the definition of “Registrable Security” as is appropriate in order to prevent any dilution or enlargement of the rights granted pursuant to this Section 5.

5.2 Mandatory Registration.

(a) On or before 90 days following the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission the Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Shares for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 (the “Required Filing Date”). The Registration Statement required hereunder shall be on Form SB-2 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Shares on Form SB-2, in which case the Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event not later than the 120th day after the Closing Date, if no review by the SEC or the 150th day if reviewed by the SEC (the “Effectiveness Date”), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of the date when all Registrable Shares covered by the Registration Statement (a) have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (b) may be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent and the affected Investors or (c) the second anniversary of the date on which the

Registration Statement is declared effective (the “Effectiveness Period”) or such longer time as the Company may determine.

(b) If: (i) the Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to its Required Filing Date or (ii) the Company fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act, within five business days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that a Registration Statement will not be “reviewed”, or not subject to further review, or (iii) a Registration Statement filed or required to be filed hereunder is not declared effective by the Commission on or before the required Effectiveness Date, or (iv) after a Registration Statement is first declared effective by the Commission, it ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities for which it is required to be effective, or the Investors are not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, for in any such cases 75 business days (which need not be consecutive days) in the aggregate during any 12-month period (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event”) and for purposes of clause (i) or (iii) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (ii) the date on which such five business day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (iv) the date on which such 75 business day period is exceeded, being referred to as “Event Date”, then in addition to any other rights the Investors may have hereunder or under applicable law the Company shall pay to each Investor an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Investor pursuant to this Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such Investor on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured. The liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event and shall not exceed an aggregate of 8% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the Investors pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to the Investors a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company it would not be in the best interest of the Company for such registration statement to be filed, the Company shall have the right to defer taking such action with respect to such filing for a period of not more than seventy-five (75) days after the date of such certificate; provided, however, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any twelve (12) month period.

(d) In the event, the Investor fails to provide the Company with any information that is required to be provided in the Registration Statement with respect to such Investor pursuant to Section 5.3(k) within ten (10) days of receiving a request for such information from the Company, the Company shall send an additional request to the Investor (the “Additional Request”) and in the event the Investor fails to respond to the Company within five (5) days of receipt of the Additional Request, the Company shall be entitled to exclude such Investor’s Registrable Shares from the Registration Statement.

5.3 Covenants of the Company With Respect to Registration.

The Company covenants and agrees as follows:

(b) Following the effective date of the Registration Statement under Section 5.2, the Company shall, upon the request of the Investors, forthwith supply such reasonable number of copies of the Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus and prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act, and other documents necessary or incidental to the public offering of the Registrable Shares, as shall be reasonably requested by the Investors to permit the Investors to make a public distribution of the Registrable Shares registered in connection with the Registration Statement.

(c) The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Shares covered by such Registration Statement during the period of time such Registration Statement remains effective;

(d) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the Shares covered by such Registration Statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Investors; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions;

(e) During the period of time such Registration Statement remains effective, the Company shall notify each Investor of Registrable Shares covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act or the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing;

(f) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such Registrable Shares registered hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class issued by the Company are then listed;

(g) The Company shall provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Shares registered hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Shares, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration; and

(k) The obligations of the Company hereunder with respect to the Registrable Shares are subject to the Investors’ furnishing to the Company such information concerning the Investors, the Registrable Shares and the terms of the Investors’ offering of such Registrable Shares as are required to be included in the Registration Statement by Commission regulations or pursuant to a specific Commission comment on the Registration Statement.

5.4 Expenses. All expenses incurred in effecting a registration pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses) shall be borne by the Company. All transfer taxes, underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of the Registrable Shares shall be borne by the Investors thereof.

5.5 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Shares are included in a Registration Statement under this Section 5:

(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Investor, the partners, officers, directors, stockholders, members and managers of such Investor, each person, if any, who controls such Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (each, a “Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law; and the Company will pay to each such Investor, underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.5(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable to any Investor, underwriter or controlling person for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished

expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Investor, underwriter or controlling person.

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Investor will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the Registration Statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Investor will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.5(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.5(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Investor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided further that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 5.5(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Investor.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5.5 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 5.5, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 5.5, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 5.5.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that

resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that in no event shall any contribution by an Investor under this Section 5.5(d) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Investor. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.

(f) The obligations of the Company and Investors under this Section 5.5 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Shares in a registration statement and the termination of this Agreement.

5.6 Suspension of Sales.

(a) With respect to the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 5.2, subject to the payment of any liquidated damages which may accrue pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(iv), the Company may suspend sales of Registrable Shares under such Registration Statement for a period of not more than seventy-five (75) days in any twelve (12) month period with respect to such Registration Statement if, at any time the Company is engaged in confidential negotiations or other confidential business activities, the disclosure of which would be required if such sales were not suspended and the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith that such suspension would be in the Company’s best interest at such time; provided, that the Company shall not be permitted to suspend such sales for more than seventy-five (75) days in any twelve (12) month period. In order to suspend sales pursuant to this Section 5.6(a), the Company shall promptly (but in any event within five (5) business days), upon determining to seek such suspension, deliver to each holder of Registrable Shares a certificate signed by an executive officer of the Company stating that the Company is suspending such filing pursuant to this Section 5.6(a). Each holder of Registrable Shares hereby agrees to keep confidential any information disclosed to it in any such certificate (including the fact that a certificate was delivered).

(b) If the Company suspends such Registration Statement pursuant to Section 5.6(a) above, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable following the termination of the circumstances which entitled the Company to do so but in no event more than fifteen (15) days thereafter, take such actions as may be necessary to file or reinstate the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and/or give written notice to the selling Investors authorizing them to resume sales pursuant to such Registration Statement. If, as a result thereof, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement has been amended to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall enclose such revised prospectus with the notice to the selling Investors given pursuant to this Section 5.6(b), and the selling Investors shall make no

offers or sales of Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement other than by means of such revised prospectus.

5.7 Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Shares granted to an Investor by the Company under this Section 5 may be transferred or assigned by an Investor to a transferee or assignee of such Registrable Shares that (i) is a subsidiary, parent, current or former partner, current or former limited partner, current or former member, current or former manager or stockholder of an Investor, (ii) is an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control, or under common investment management, with an Investor, including without limitation a corporation, partnership or limited liability company that is a direct or indirect parent or subsidiary of the Investor, or (iii) is a transferee or assignee of not less than 50,000 shares of Registrable Shares (as presently constituted and subject to subsequent adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits and the like), provided that the Company is given written notice at the time of or within a reasonable time after said transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of said transferee or assignee and identifying the Securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned, and provided further that the transferee or assignee of such rights assumes the obligations of such Investor under this Section 5.

5.8 Reports Under Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit an Investor to sell Securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:

(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are used in SEC Rule 144, at all times;

(b) File with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;

(c) Furnish to any Investor, so long as the Investor owns any Registrable Shares, forthwith on request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Investor of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration; and

(d) Undertake any additional actions reasonably necessary to maintain the availability of the use of Rule 144.

5.9 Delay of Registration. No Investor shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 5.

Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no other Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment hereunder. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company has elected to provide all Investors with the same terms and

form of this Agreement for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Investors.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been executed as of the date first above written, by the duly authorized representatives of the parties hereto.
