operations or prospects of the Company.
3.9 CERTAIN AGREEMENTS. All of the collaborative agreements, research
and development agreements, licensing agreements and other agreements with
corporate partners and governmental or educational entities that have been
previously disclosed by the Company in the SEC Reports referred to in paragraph
(b) of Section 4.5 hereof are valid and enforceable obligations of the Company
and, to the Company's best knowledge, the other parties thereto. Except for
breaches and defaults that would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a
material adverse effect on the Company or its assets, liabilities, operations,
financial condition, business or prospects, the Company is not in breach or
default under any such contracts or agreements nor
5
has any event occurred which, with the giving of notice or the passage of
time or both, would constitute a breach or default on the Company's part
thereunder. To the Company's best knowledge, none of the other parties to
such contracts or agreements is in breach or default thereunder nor has any
event occurred which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or
both, would constitute a breach or default on such other parties' part.

Purchaser hereby represents and warrants as follows:
6
(a) PURCHASER BEARS ECONOMIC RISK. Purchaser has substantial
experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of
securities in companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of

of this investment indefinitely unless the Shares are registered pursuant to
the Securities Act, or an exemption from registration is available.
Purchaser understands that the Company has no present intention of
registering the Shares. Purchaser also understands that there is no
assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act will
be available and that, even if available, such exemption may not allow the
Company to transfer all or any portion of the Shares under the circumstances,
in the amounts or at the times Purchaser might propose.
(b) ACCREDITED INVESTOR. Purchaser represents that it is an
accredited investor within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities
Act.

must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the
Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.
Purchaser has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act, which permits limited resale of shares
purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, including, among other things: the availability of certain
current public information about the Company, the resale occurring not less
than one year after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be
sold, the sale being through an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in
