(f) Buyer Relationship with Brokers The Buyer’s substantive relationship with any broker for the transactions contemplated hereby or subagent thereof (collectively, “Brokers”) through which the Buyer is subscribing for the Notes predates such Broker’s contact with the Buyer regarding an investment in the Notes.
(g) Solicitation. The Buyer is unaware of, is in no way relying on, and did not become aware of the offering of the Notes through or as a result of, any form of general solicitation or general advertising including, without limitation, any article, notice, advertisement or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes and is not subscribing for the Notes and did not become aware of the offering of the Notes through or as a result of any seminar or meeting to which the Buyer was invited by, or any solicitation of a subscription by, a person not previously known to the Buyer in connection with investments in securities generally.

(i) Buyer’s Advisors. The Buyer and the Buyer’s attorney, accountant, purchaser representative and/or tax advisor, if any (collectively, the “Advisors”), as the case may be, has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax, and business matters, and, in particular, investments in securities, so as to enable it to utilize the information made available to it in connection with the Notes to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Notes and the Company and to make an informed investment decision with respect thereto.
(j) Buyer Liquidity. Each Buyer has adequate means of providing for such Buyer’s current financial needs and foreseeable contingencies and has no need for liquidity of its investment in the Notes for an indefinite period of time.
(k) High Risk Investment; Review of Risk Factors. The Buyer is aware that an investment in the Notes, and upon closing of the Merger and at least the Minimum PPO and conversion of the Notes, the Common Stock, including the Common Stock underlying the Conversion Warrants and Conversion Unit Warrants, involves a number of very significant risks and has carefully reviewed and understands the risks of, and other considerations relating to, the purchase of the Notes, and upon closing of the Merger and at least the Minimum PPO and conversion of the Notes, the Common Stock, including the Common Stock underlying the Conversion Warrants and Conversion Unit Warrants, and in particular, acknowledges that the Company is a shell company and its ability to repay the Notes is based on the consummation of the Transactions.
(l) Reliance on Exemptions. Each Buyer understands that the Notes are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Buyer’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Buyer set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Buyer to acquire such securities.
7 |
(m) Information. Each Buyer and its Advisors have been furnished with all documents and materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and information that Buyer requested and deemed material to making an informed investment decision regarding its purchase of the Notes and the underlying securities. Each Buyer and its Advisors have been afforded the opportunity to review such documents and materials, as well as the Company’s SEC Filings, as such term is defined below (hard copies of which were made available to the Buyer upon request to the Company or were otherwise accessible to the Buyer via the SEC’s XXXXX system), and the information contained therein. Each Buyer and its Advisors have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its management. Each Buyer understands that such discussions, as well as any written information provided by the Company, were intended to describe the aspects of the Company’s business and prospects which the Company believes to be material, but were not necessarily a thorough or exhaustive description, and except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the completeness of such information and makes no representation or warranty of any kind with respect to any information provided by any entity other than the Company. Some of such information may include projections as to the future performance of the Company, which projections may not be realized, may be based on assumptions which may not be correct and may be subject to numerous factors both beyond and within the Company’s control. Additionally, the Subscriber understands and represents that he is purchasing the Notes notwithstanding the fact that the Company may disclose in the future certain material information the Subscriber has not received, including its financial results for its current fiscal quarter. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Buyer or its Advisors shall modify, amend or affect such Buyer’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in Section 3 below. Each Buyer has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Notes.
(n) No Other Representations or Information. In evaluating the suitability of an investment in the Notes, the Buyer has not relied upon any representation or information (oral or written) other than as stated in this Agreement. No oral or written representations have been made, or oral or written information furnished, to the Buyer or its Advisors, if any, in connection with the offering of the Notes.
(o) No Governmental Review. Each Buyer understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Notes (or the Common Stock, including the Common Stock underlying the Conversion Warrants and Conversion Unit Warrants), or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Notes (and the Common Stock, including the Common Stock underlying the Conversion Warrants and Conversion Unit Warrants), nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Notes (or the Common Stock, including the Common Stock underlying the Conversion Warrants and Conversion Unit Warrants).
8 |
(p) Transfer or Resale. (A) Each Buyer understands that: (i) the Notes have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder, or (B) such Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such securities to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements; (ii) any sale of such securities made in reliance on Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor rule thereto) (“Rule 144”) may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of such securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require compliance with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (iii) except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C), neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register such securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. The Company reserves the right to place stop transfer instructions against the shares and certificates for the Conversion Shares to the extent specifically set forth under this Agreement. There can be no assurance that there will be any market or resale for the Notes (or the Common Stock, including the Common Stock underlying the Conversion Warrants and Conversion Unit Warrants), nor can there be any assurance that the Notes (or the Common Stock, including the Common Stock underlying the Conversion Warrants and Conversion Unit Warrants) will be freely transferable at any time in the foreseeable future.
(B) Each Buyer understands that the Company is currently a “shell company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Pursuant to Rule 144(i), securities issued by a current or former shell company (that is, the Notes(and the Conversion Shares)) that otherwise meet the holding period and other requirements of Rule 144 nevertheless cannot be sold in reliance on Rule 144 until one year after the Company (a) is no longer a shell company; and (b) has filed current “Form 10 information” (as defined in Rule 144(i)) with the SEC reflecting that it is no longer a shell company, and provided that at the time of a proposed sale pursuant to Rule 144, the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports. As a result, the restrictive legends on certificates for the Securities cannot be removed except in connection with an actual sale meeting the foregoing requirements or pursuant to an effective registration statement.
(q) Legends. Each Buyer understands that the certificates or other instruments representing the Notes (and the Common Stock, including the Common Stock underlying the Conversion Warrants and Conversion Unit Warrants) shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

(o) ANTI MONEY LAUNDERING REQUIREMENTS
The USA PATRIOT Act | What is money laundering? |
How big is the problem and why is it important? | ||
The USA PATRIOT Act is designed to detect, deter, and punish terrorists in the United States and abroad. The Act imposes new anti-money laundering requirements on brokerage firms and financial institutions. Since April 24, 2002, all brokerage firms have been required to have new, comprehensive anti-money laundering programs.
To help you understand these efforts, we want to provide you with some information about money laundering and our steps to implement the USA PATRIOT Act. |
Money laundering is the process of disguising illegally obtained money so that the funds appear to come from legitimate sources or activities. Money laundering occurs in connection with a wide variety of crimes, including illegal arms sales, drug trafficking, robbery, fraud, racketeering, and terrorism. |
The use of the U.S. financial system by criminals to facilitate terrorism or other crimes could well taint our financial markets. According to the U.S. State Department, one recent estimate puts the amount of worldwide money laundering activity at $1 trillion a year. |
27 |
What are we required to do to eliminate money laundering? | ||
Under new rules required by the USA PATRIOT Act, our anti-money laundering program must designate a special compliance officer, set up employee training, conduct independent audits, and establish policies and procedures to detect and report suspicious transaction and ensure compliance with the new laws. |
As part of our required program, we may ask you to provide various identification documents or other information. Until you provide the information or documents we need, we may not be able to effect any transactions for you. |
(p) Omnibus Signature Page. This Agreement is intended to be read and construed in conjunction with the Registration Rights Agreement. Accordingly, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and such related agreements, it is hereby agreed that the execution by the Buyer of this Agreement, in the place set forth on the Buyer Omnibus Signature Page below, shall constitute agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof and the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement, with the same effect as if each of such separate but related agreement were separately signed.
