perform fully Purchaser's obligations hereunder. Purchaser has taken all actions
necessary to authorize it to enter into and perform fully its obligations under
this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated herein. This
Agreement is, and as of the Closing, will be, the legal, valid and binding
obligation of Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
5.2 NO VIOLATION. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement
nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will (a) violate,
conflict with, or constitute a default under any contract or other instrument to

connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
5.4 SECURITIES REPRESENTATIONS.

investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time, can afford the loss
of the entire investment in the Shares, and will, after making an investment in
the Shares, have sufficient means of providing for Purchaser's current needs and
possible future contingencies. Additionally, Purchaser's overall commitment to
investments which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to
Purchaser's net worth and this Agreement will not cause such overall commitment
to become excessive.
(b) The Shares will not be sold by Purchaser without
registration under applicable securities acts or a proper exemption from such
registration.
(c) The Shares are being acquired by Purchaser for Purchaser's
own account and risk, for investment purposes, and not on behalf of any other
person or with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
thereof within the meaning of the Act. Purchaser is aware that there are
substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Shares.
(d) Purchaser has had access to any and all information
concerning the Company that Purchaser and Purchaser's financial, tax and legal
advisors required or considered necessary to make a proper evaluation of this
investment. The available information included all information filed by the
Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. In making the
decision to purchase the Shares herein agreed to, Purchaser and Purchaser's
advisors have relied upon their own independent investigations, and fully
understand that there are no guarantees, assurances or promises in connection
with any investment hereunder and understand that the particular tax
consequences arising from this investment in the Company will depend upon the
individual circumstances of Purchaser.
(e) Purchaser also understands and agrees that stop transfer
instructions relating to the Shares will be placed in the Company's transfer
ledger, and that the certificates evidencing the Shares sold will bear legends
in substantially the following form:
The Shares represented by this Certificate have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act") and are "restricted securities" as that term is defined
in Rule 144 under the Act. The securities may not be offered
for sale, sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Act or pursuant to
an exemption from registration under the Act, the availability
of which is to be established to the satisfaction of the
Company.
(f) Purchaser knows that the Shares are offered and sold
pursuant to exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and state securities law based, in part, on these warranties and
-6-
representatives, which are the very essence of this Agreement, and constitute a
material part of the bargained-for consideration without which this Agreement
would not have been executed. Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold the Company
harmless for any damages suffered by the Company as a result of any
misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty of Purchaser.
(g) By reason of Purchaser's business or financial experience
or the business or financial experience of Purchaser's professional advisors,
Purchaser has the capacity to protect Purchaser's own interest in connection
with this transaction or has a pre-existing personal or business relationship
with the Company or one or more of its officers, directors or controlling
persons consisting of personal or business contacts of a nature and duration
such as would enable a reasonably prudent purchaser to be aware of the
character, business acumen and general business and financial circumstances of
such person with whom such relationship exists.
(h) Purchaser is an "accredited investor" as defined under
Rule 501 of Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
5.5 PURCHASER COUNSEL. Purchaser acknowledges that Purchaser has had
the opportunity to review this Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto, the
Company's reports filed with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby with
Purchaser's own legal counsel. Purchaser is relying solely on Purchaser's legal
counsel and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of
the Company's representatives, including Xxxxxxxxxx & Associates, for legal
advice with respect to this investment or the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby.

any such claim with counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Party, at
the Indemnifying Party's own cost and expense, including the cost and expense of
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements in connection with such defense, in
-7-
which event the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay the fees and
disbursements of separate counsel for such in such action. In the event,
however, that such Indemnified Party's legal counsel shall determine that
defenses may be available to such Indemnified Party that are different from or
in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, in that there could
reasonably be expected to be a conflict of interest if such Indemnifying Party
and the Indemnified Party have common counsel in any such proceeding, or if the
Indemnified Party has not assumed the defense of the action or proceedings, then
such Indemnifying Party may employ separate counsel to represent or defend such
Indemnified Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel for such Indemnified Party. No settlement of any such
claim or payment in connection with any such settlement shall be made without
the prior consent of the Indemnifying Party which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.
