A. The Purchaser is purchasing the Securities for the Purchaser’s own account (not as a nominee or agent) for investment purposes and not with a view towards resale or distribution of any part thereof. The Purchaser has no present arrangement or intention to sell or distribute the Securities, or to grant participation in the Securities.

B. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the United States Securities & Exchange Commission has not reviewed the Offering and that the Securities have not been registered under the Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons unless the Securities are registered under the Act, sold in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S of the Act or pursuant to an available exemption from registration. The certificate representing the Securities or any shares issued upon exercise of the Warrants will bear the following legend and the Purchaser agrees to abide by the terms thereof:
The Securities (and any shares issuable upon exercise of warrants) represented hereby have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), and have been issued in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act provided by Regulation S promulgated under the Act. Such Securities (and any shares issuable upon exercise of warrants) may not be re-offered for sale or resold or otherwise transferred except in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S, pursuant to an effective registration under the Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Act.
