Company constitutes investment, accounting, legal or tax advice. The Undersigned
is relying solely upon himself and his professional advisors, if any, for such
advice.
4. The Undersigned has relied solely upon his own independent
investigation in making a decision to purchase the Securities. The Securities
are a speculative investment which involves a substantial degree of risk with no
assurance of any income from such investment and the possibility that the
Securities may become worthless. The Undersigned acknowledges that both the

Undersigned acknowledges that he must therefore be prepared to bear the economic
risks for an indefinite period, and the total loss of his investment.

person to sell, transfer or pledge to such person, or anyone else, the
Securities, or any interest therein, and the Undersigned has no plans to enter
into any such contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement.
6. The Undersigned understands that he may not dispose of the Securities,
or any interest therein, unless and until legal counsel for the Company shall
have determined that the intended disposition does not violate the law of any
jurisdiction. The Undersigned acknowledges that the Securities are
non-transferable, that both the Notes and Shares will bear legends describing
the limitations on transfers, and that it will not be possible for the
Undersigned to liquidate his investment in case of an emergency. The Undersigned
agrees to only resell such Securities pursuant to registration under the
Securities Act, pursuant to the resale provisions promulgated under Regulation
S, under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from
registration, and agrees not to engage in hedging transactions with regard to
such securities unless in compliance with the Securities Act.

Person. The Undersigned represents and warrants that he is not a resident of the
United States and that he was outside of the United States when (i) the
agreement was negotiated, (ii) he received this agreement, and (iii) this
agreement was executed.
8. The Undersigned represents that he is knowledgeable and experienced in
making and evaluating investments. The investments of the Undersigned in, and
his commitments to, all non-liquid investments (including an investment in the
Company) are reasonable in relation to his net worth, and the Undersigned has
the ability to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Company.
9. The Undersigned represents, warrants, and acknowledges that (a) the
Securities were not offered or distributed to the Undersigned through an
advertisement in printed media of general and regular paid circulation, radio or
television, and (b) he did not attend any seminars or meetings regarding this
offering, in which the attendees were invited by any general solicitation or
general advertising.
10. The Undersigned acknowledges that no governmental authority,
regulatory body, stock exchange or any other entity has made any finding or
determination as to the merits of this investment.
11. The Undersigned acknowledges that the Company, in its sole discretion,
reserves the unconditional right to accept or reject, in whole or in part, this
subscription, with or without cause, and to waive any requirements of this
subscription. The Undersigned acknowledges that the Company has the
unconditional right to refund to the Undersigned all funds so tendered, or any
portion thereof, to the Company, within one hundred twenty days of receipt, even
if the Company has already utilized the funds. To the extent this subscription
may ultimately be rejected, subscriptions received by the Company shall be
refunded, without interest. The Undersigned acknowledges that the Company may

12. The Undersigned represents that he is an "accredited investor" as such
term is defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, as set forth at
Appendix III hereto, and has checked the applicable category of "accredited
investor" on Appendix III.

damage, expense (including attorney's fees and expenses) and claims arising out
of, in connection with or resulting (i) from the sale or distribution of the

regulation, and (ii) any misrepresentation by the Undersigned or any breach of
