Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "SECURITIES ACT"). The Contributor also understands that the Shares are
being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in

contained in this Agreement. The Contributor hereby further represents and
warrants as follows:
(a) CONTRIBUTOR BEARS ECONOMIC RISK. The Contributor has
substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private transactions of
securities in companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the
capacity to protect its own interests. The Contributor must bear the economic
risk of this investment indefinitely unless the Shares are registered pursuant
to the Securities Act, or an exemption from registration is available. The
Contributor understands that the Company has no present intention of registering
the Shares or any shares of the Company's Common Stock. The Contributor also
understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration
under the Securities Act will be available and that, even if available, such
exemption may not allow the Contributor to transfer all or any portion of the
Shares under the circumstances in the amounts or at the times the Contributor
might propose.
(b) ACQUISITION FOR OWN ACCOUNT. The Contributor is acquiring
the Shares for the Contributor's own account for investment only, and not with a
view towards their distribution within the meaning of the Securities Act and the
California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, as amended.
(c) CONTRIBUTOR CAN PROTECT ITS INTEREST. The Contributor
represents that by reason of the Contributor's business or financial experience,
the Contributor has the capacity to protect the Contributor's own interests in
connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.
(d) COMPANY INFORMATION. The Contributor has had an
opportunity to discuss the Company's business, management and financial affairs
with directors, officers and management of the Company and has had the
opportunity to review the Company's operations and facilities. The Contributor
has also had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from, the
Company and its management regarding the terms of this transaction.
(e) RULE 144. The Contributor acknowledges and agrees that the
Shares must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under
the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The
Contributor has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act as in effect from time to time, which
permits limited resale of shares purchased in a private transaction subject to
the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things: the
availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale
occurring following the required holding period under Rule 144 promulgated under
the Securities Act and the number of shares being sold during any three-month
period not exceeding specified limitations.

on transfer under state and/or federal securities laws as set forth herein or as
otherwise required by such laws at the time a transfer is proposed.
4.3 AUTHORIZATION; BINDING OBLIGATIONS. The Agreement, when executed
and delivered, will be a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable
