(j)
Communication of Offer. The offer to sell the Purchased Securities was directly communicated to such Subscriber by the Company.

4
Restricted Securities. Such Subscriber understands that the Purchased Securities have not been registered under the 1933 Act and such Subscriber will not sell, offer to sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any of the Purchased Securities unless pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, or unless an exemption from registration is available. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, such Subscriber may transfer (without restriction and without the need for an opinion of counsel) the Purchased Securities to its Affiliates (as defined below) provided that each such Affiliate is an “accredited investor” under Regulation D and such Affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, an “Affiliate” of any person or entity means any other person or entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such person or entity. Affiliate includes each Subsidiary of the Company. For purposes of this definition, “control” means the power to direct the management and policies of such person or firm, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.
No Governmental Review. Such Subscriber understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other governmental or state agency has passed on or made recommendations or endorsement of the Purchased Securities or the suitability of the investment in the Purchased Securities nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Purchased Securities.
(m)
Correctness of Representations. Such Subscriber represents that the foregoing representations and warranties are true and correct as of the date hereof and, unless such Subscriber otherwise notifies the Company prior to the Closing Date, shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date. The Subscriber understands that the Purchased Securities are being offered and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the registration requirement of Federal and state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Subscriber set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of the Subscriber to acquire the Purchased Securities.
(n)
Short Sales and Confidentiality. Other than the transaction contemplated hereunder, the Subscriber has not directly or indirectly, nor has any person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with the Subscriber, executed any disposition, including short sales (but not including the location and/or reservation of borrowable shares of Common Stock), in the securities of the Company during the period commencing from the time that the Subscriber first received a term sheet from the Company or any other person setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder until the date that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced as described in Section 7(m). The Subscriber covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company as described in Section 7(m), the Subscriber will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction). The Subscriber understands and acknowledges that the Commission currently takes the position that coverage of short sales of shares of the Common Stock “against the box” prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement with the Purchased Securities is a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Item 65, Section 5 under Section A, of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997, compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subscriber does not make any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in short sales in the securities of the Company after the date that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced as described in Section 7(m). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Subscriber that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Subscriber's assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Subscriber's assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Purchased Securities covered by this Agreement.
