4. | Representations and Warranties of Purchaser and Restrictions on Transfer Imposed by the Securities Act The Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company as follows: |
4.1 Investment Intent
This Agreement is made with the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser’s
representations to the Company, evidenced by the Purchaser’s execution of this
Agreement, that the Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for investment for the
Purchaser's own account, not as nominee or agent, and not with a view to or for
resale in connection with, any distribution or public offering thereof within
the meaning of the Securities Act and applicable law. The Purchaser has the full
right, power, and authority to enter into and perform this
Agreement.
4.2 Shares Not
Registered The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the
offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement will not be registered under
the Securities Act on the grounds that the offering and sale of securities
contemplated by this Agreement are exempt from registration under the
3
Securities
Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof and exempt from registration pursuant to
applicable state securities or blue sky laws, and that the Company's reliance
upon such exemptions is predicated upon such Purchaser's representations set
forth in this Agreement. The Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the
Shares must be held indefinitely unless the Shares are subsequently registered
under the Securities Act and qualified under state law or unless an exemption
from such registration and such qualification is available.
4.3 No
Transfer Except as set forth in Section 4.4 hereunder, the
Purchaser covenants that in no event will the Purchaser dispose of any of the
Shares (other than in conjunction with an effective registration statement for
the Shares under the Securities Act in compliance with Rule 144 promulgated
under the Securities Act) unless and until (i) the Purchaser shall have notified
the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company
with a statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and
(ii) if reasonably requested by the Company, the Purchaser shall have furnished
the Company with an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and substance to the
Company to the effect that (x) such disposition will not require registration
under the Securities Act, and (y) appropriate action necessary for compliance
with the Securities Act and any other applicable state, local, or foreign law
has been taken, and (iii) the Company has consented, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.
4.4 Knowledge and
Experience The Purchaser (i) has
such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable
of evaluating the merits and risks of the Purchaser's prospective investment in
the Shares; (ii) has the ability to bear the economic risks of the Purchaser’s
prospective investment; (iii) has been furnished with and had access to such
information as the Purchaser has considered necessary to make a determination as
to the purchase of the Shares together with such additional information as is
necessary to verify the accuracy of the information supplied; (iv) has had all
questions which have been asked by the Purchaser satisfactorily answered by the
Company; and (v) has not been offered the Shares by any form of advertisement,
article, notice, or other communication published in any
newspaper, magazine, or similar medium; or broadcast over television or radio;
or any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any such
medium.
4.5 Legends. Each
certificate representing the Shares shall be endorsed with the following
legends:
(a) The
Purchaser is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S of
the Securities Act (“Regulation S”) (a
“Non-U.S.
Shareholder”) and he understands that the Shares are not registered under
the Securities Act and that the issuance thereof to the Purchaser is intended to
be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Regulation
S. The Purchaser has no intention of becoming a U.S.
Person. At the time of the origination of contact concerning this
Agreement and the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Purchaser was outside of the United States. Each certificate

REGULATION S, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR PURSUANT TO
AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS MAY NOT
BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT.”
(b) The Purchaser
understands that the Shares may not be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed
of without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and
that in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Shares
or any available exemption from registration under the Securities Act, the
Shares may have to be held indefinitely. The Purchaser further
acknowledges that the Shares may not be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated
under the Securities Act unless all of the conditions of Rule 144 are satisfied
(including, without limitation, compliance with the reporting requirements under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)).
