compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable
2.3 NO BREACH. The issue and sale of the Shares by the Corporation

of any of the terms of the Corporation's incorporating documents or any
agreement or instrument to which the Corporation is a party. The consummation of
the transactions or performance of the obligations contemplated by this
Agreement will not result in a breach of any term of, or constitute a default

which the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries is or are a party or by which
any of them is or are bound.
2.4 PENDING OR THREATENED CLAIMS. Neither the Corporation nor any

2.5 BROKERS AND FINDERS. No agent, broker, investment banker or
other firm or person acting on behalf or under the authority of the Company is

similar fee from the Company in connection with any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.
3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE INVESTOR. Each Investor
severally and not jointly hereby represents and warrants that:
3.1 AUTHORIZATION. When executed and delivered by the Investor, and
assuming execution and delivery by the Company, this Agreement and Warrant
constitute its valid and legally binding obligations, enforceable in accordance
with their terms. If Investor is a corporation, partnership, trust or estate:
(i) the individual executing and delivering this Agreement on behalf of the
Investor has been duly authorized and is duly qualified to execute and deliver
this Agreement on behalf of Investor in connection with the purchase of the
Shares and (ii) the signature of such individual is binding upon Investor. Each
Investor represents that it has full power and authority to enter into this
Agreement.
2
3.2 PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT. This Agreement is made with
each Investor in reliance upon such Investor's representation to the Company,
which by such Investor's execution of this Agreement such Investor hereby
confirms, that the Securities will be acquired for investment for such
Investor's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the
resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no
present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise
distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, each Investor further
represents that such Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such
person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities.
3.3 DISCLOSURE OF AND ACCESS TO INFORMATION. The Investor has had
an opportunity to discuss the Corporation's business, management and financial
affairs with its management and to obtain any additional information which the
Investor has deemed necessary or appropriate for deciding whether or not to
purchase the Securities, and has had an opportunity to receive, review and
understand the disclosures and information regarding the Company's financial
statements, capitalization and other business information as set forth in the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC
Filings") which are all incorporated herein by reference, together with all
exhibits referenced therein. The Investor acknowledges that no representations
or warranties, oral or written, have been made by the Company or any agent
thereof except as set forth in this Agreement.
3.4 INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE. The Investor has such knowledge and
experience in financial and business matters, including investments in other
start-up companies, that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the
investment in the Securities, and it is able to bear the economic risk of such
investment. Further, the individual executing this Agreement has such knowledge
and experience in financial and business matters that he/it is capable of
utilizing the information made available to him/it in connection with the
offering of the Securities, of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment
in the Securities and of making an informed investment decision with respect to
the Securities, including assessment of the Risk Factors set forth in the SEC
Filings which are incorporated herein by reference.
3.5 RESTRICTED SECURITIES. Such Investor understands that the
Shares it is purchasing are characterized as "restricted securities" under the
federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in
a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and
applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under
the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection,
each Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144, as presently in
effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.
The Investor is aware that there is currently a very limited "over-the-counter"
public market for the Company's common stock shares which are eligible for such
sales. There is no guarantee that a more established public market will develop
at any time in the future. The Investor understands that the Securities are all
unregistered and may not presently be sold in even this limited public market.
The Investor understands that the Securities cannot be readily sold or
liquidated in case of an emergency or other financial need. The Investor has
sufficient liquid assets available so that the purchase and holding of the
Securities will not cause it undue financial difficulties.
3.6 ACCREDITED INVESTOR. The Investor is an "accredited investor"
as that term is defined in Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The term "Accredited Investor" under Regulation D refers
to:
(i) A person or entity who is a director or executive officer
of the Corporation;
3
(ii) Any bank as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities
Act, or any savings and loan association or other institution as defined in
Section 3(a)(5)(A) of the Securities Act whether acting in its individual or
fiduciary capacity; any broker or dealer registered pursuant to Section 15 of
the Exchange Act; insurance Corporation as defined in Section 2(13) of the
Securities Act; investment Corporation registered under the Investment
Corporation Act of 1940; or a business development Corporation as defined in
Section 2(a)(48) of that Act; Small Business Investment Corporation licensed by
the U.S. Small Business Administration under Section 301(c) or (d) of the Small
Business Investment Act of 1958; any plan established and maintained by a state,
its political subdivisions, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or its
political subdivisions for the benefit of its employees, if such plan has total
assets in excess of $5,000,000; employee benefit plan within the meaning of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, if the investment decision is
made by a plan fiduciary, as defined in Section 3(21) of such Act, which is
either a bank, savings and loan association, insurance Corporation, or
registered investment adviser, or if the employee benefit plan has total assets
in excess of $5,000,000 or, if a self-directed plan, with investment decision
made solely by persons that are accredited investors;
(iii) Any private business development Corporation as defined
in Section 202(a)(22) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940;
(iv) Any organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the
Internal Revenue Code, corporation, Massachusetts or similar business trust, or
partnership, not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities
offered, with total assets in excess of $5,000,000;
(v) Any natural person whose individual net worth, or joint
net worth with that person's spouse, at the time of his purchase exceeds
$1,000,000;
(vi) Any natural person who had an individual income in excess
of $200,000 during each of the previous two years or joint income with that
person's spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of those years and has a
reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current year;
(vii) Any trust, with total assets in excess of $5,000,000,
not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities offered, whose
purchase is directed by a person who has such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters that he is capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of the prospective investment; or (viii) Any entity in which all of the
equity owners are accredited investors.
As used in this Section 3.6, the term "net worth" means the excess of total
assets over total liabilities. For the purpose of determining a person's net
worth, the principal residence owned by an individual should be valued at fair
market value, including the cost of improvements, net of current encumbrances.
As used in this Section 3.6, "income" means actual economic income, which may
differ from adjusted gross income for income tax purposes. Accordingly, the
undersigned should consider whether it should add any or all of the following
items to its adjusted gross income for income tax purposes in order to reflect
more accurately its actual economic income: Any amounts attributable to
tax-exempt income received, losses claimed as a limited partner in any limited
partnership, deductions claimed for depletion, contributions to an XXX or Xxxxx
retirement plan, and alimony payments
4
3.7 ECONOMIC RISK. Such Investor understands that an investment in
the Company involves substantial risks. Such Investor understands all of the
risks related to the purchase of the Securities. Such Investor further
understands that the purchase of the Securities will be a highly speculative
investment. Such Investor is able, without impairing the Investor's financial
condition, to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and to suffer
a complete loss of the Investor's investment.
3.8 BROKERS OR FINDERS. The Company has not, and will not, incur,
directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by such Investor, any
liability for brokerage or finders' fees or agents' commissions or any similar
charges in connection with this Agreement.
3.9 TAX LIABILITY. It has reviewed with its own tax advisors the
federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. It relies solely on such advisors
and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its
agents. It understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for
its own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
3.10 FURTHER LIMITATIONS ON DISPOSITION. Without in any way
limiting the representations set forth above, each Investor further agrees not
to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Shares unless and until:
(a) There is then in effect a Registration Statement under the
Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in
accordance with such Registration Statement; or
(b) (i) Such Investor shall have notified the Company of the
proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed
statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) if
requested by the Company, such Investor shall have furnished the Company with an
opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such
disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Act, provided
that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made
pursuant to Rule 144 of such Act; or
3.11 LEGENDS. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the
Shares may bear one or all of the following legends:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, INCLUDING A "LOCK-UP" PROVISION RESTRICTING THE
TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES FOR A PERIOD OF TIME NOT TO EXCEED ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY
(180) DAYS FROM THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE CORPORATION'S PUBLIC OFFERING.
(b) Any legend required by the laws of applicable state.
4. LOCK-UP. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Securities
may be subject to certain restrictions on transfer following a registered public
offering of the Corporation's securities as provided in this Section 4. In
connection with any registration of the Corporation's securities, the Investor
agrees, upon the request of the underwriters managing such offering of the
Company's securities, if applicable, or the Company if there are no
underwriters, not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for
the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Shares (other than those included
in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Corporation and,
if applicable, such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time,
not to exceed thirty (30) days before and one hundred eighty (180) days, after
the effective date of such registration as the Corporation or the underwriters
may specify; provided, however, that all executive officers, directors and
shareholders holding more than 1% of the fully diluted capital stock of the
Corporation are subject to the same restrictions as the Investor. The
Corporation and underwriters may request such additional written agreements in
furtherance of such standoff in the form reasonably satisfactory to the
underwriter and the Investor. The Corporation may also impose stop-transfer
instructions with respect to the shares subject to the foregoing restrictions
until the end of said one hundred eighty (180) day or shorter period.
Contemporaneous with the execution of this Agreement.
