(b) Purchase
Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is
made with the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser’s representation to the
Company, which by the Purchaser’s execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser
hereby confirms, that the Securities to be acquired by the Purchaser will be
acquired for investment for the Purchaser’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 the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any
participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing
this Agreement, the Purchaser further represents that the Purchaser does not
presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any
person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third
person, with respect to the Securities. The Purchaser has not been formed for
the specific purpose of acquiring any of the Securities.
(c) Knowledge. Purchaser acknowledges that
he has had access to the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and has reviewed in particular the risk factors for investors
contained in those filings. Purchaser further acknowledges that the Company has
continued to sustain operating losses since the last financial statements filed.
The Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition
and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed
and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities.
(d) Restricted
Securities. The Purchaser

conversion thereof) pursuant to a specific exemption from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act. The Purchaser understands that the
Securities are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state
securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must hold the
Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from
such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser further
acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is
available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not
limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities,
and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s
control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to
satisfy.
