stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) one
warrant (the “Warrant,”
collectively, the “Warrants”) to purchase 0.50
shares of Common Stock (and the fractional amount being the “Warrant Ratio”), in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, for a
purchase price of $0.81 per Unit (the “Purchase
Price”). Units will not be issued or

4. Representations,
Warranties and Covenants of the Investor.
The
Investor acknowledges, represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Company
and the Placement Agent (as to itself), that:
4.1 The
Investor (a) is knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in making, and is
qualified to make decisions with respect to, investments in shares presenting an
investment decision like that involved in the purchase of the Units, including
investments in securities issued by the Company and investments in comparable
companies, (b) has answered all questions on the Signature Page and the Investor
Questionnaire and the answers thereto are true and correct as of the date hereof
and will be true and correct as of the Closing Date and (c) in connection with
its decision to purchase the number of Units set forth on the Signature Page,
has received and is relying only upon the Disclosure Package and the documents
incorporated by reference therein and the Offering Information.
4.2 (a) No
action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction outside the United States
by the Company or the Placement Agent that would permit an offering of the Units, or possession or
distribution of offering materials in connection with the issue of the
Securities in any jurisdiction outside the United States where action for that
purpose is required, (b) if the Investor is outside the United States, it will
comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each foreign jurisdiction in
which it purchases, offers, sells or delivers Securities or has in its
possession or distributes any offering material, in all cases at its own expense
and (c) the Placement Agent is not authorized to make and have not made any
representation, disclosure or use of any information in connection with the
issue, placement, purchase and sale of the Units, except as set forth or
incorporated by reference in the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or
any free writing prospectus.
4.3 (a) The
Investor has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this
Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and has taken
all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement, and (b) this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding
obligation of the Investor enforceable against the Investor in accordance with
its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ and
contracting parties’ rights generally and except as enforceability may be
subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such
enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and except as
to the enforceability of any rights to indemnification or contribution that may
be violative of the public policy underlying any law, rule or regulation
(including any federal or state securities law, rule or
regulation).
4.4 The
Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement, the Prospectus, the
Disclosure Package, the Offering Information or any other materials presented to
the Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of the Units constitutes legal, tax or
investment advice. The Investor has consulted such legal, tax and
investment advisors and made such investigation as it, in its sole discretion,
has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of
Units. The Investor also understands that there is no
established public trading market for the Warrants being offered in the
Offering, and that the Company does not expect such a market to
develop. In addition, the Company does not intend to apply for
listing the Warrants on any securities exchange. Without an active
market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.
8
4.5 Since the
date on which the Placement Agent first contacted the Investor about the
Offering, the Investor has not disclosed any information regarding the Offering
to any third parties (other than its legal, accounting and other advisors) and
has not engaged in any purchases or sales involving the securities of the
Company (including, without limitation, any Short Sales involving the Company’s
securities). The Investor covenants that it will not engage in any
purchases or sales in the securities of the Company (including Short Sales)
prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are
publicly disclosed. The Investor agrees that it will not use any of
the Securities acquired pursuant to this Agreement to cover any short position
in the Common Stock if doing so would be in violation of applicable securities
laws. For purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without
limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under
Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, whether or not against the box, and all
types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sales contracts, options,
puts, calls, short sales, swaps, “put equivalent positions” (as defined in Rule
16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) and similar arrangements (including on a total
return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or
foreign regulated brokers.
5. Survival of
Representations, Warranties and Agreements; Third Party
Beneficiary. Notwithstanding any investigation made by any
party to this Agreement or by the Placement Agent, all covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made by the Company and the Investor herein will
survive the execution of this Agreement, the delivery to the Investor of the
Shares and Warrants being purchased and the payment therefor. The
Placement Agent and Lazard Fréres & Co. shall be third party beneficiaries
with respect to the representations, warranties and agreements of the Investor
in Section 4 hereof.
6. Notices. All
