the Shares, and the Shareholder is not participating, pursuant to a contractual
agreement, arrangement or understanding, in a distribution of the Shares.

acknowledges that, in reliance upon the representations and warranties made by
Shareholder herein, the Shares are not being registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the 1933 Act or applicable United States state
securities laws, but instead are being issued under an exemption or exemptions
from the registration and qualification requirements of the 1933 Act or other
applicable state securities laws which impose certain restrictions on
Shareholder’s ability to transfer the Shares.
 
4.9    Restrictions on Transfer.  Subject to the Lock-Up, Shareholder
understands that Shareholder may not transfer any Shares unless such Shares are
registered under the 1933 Act and qualified under applicable state securities
laws or unless, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, exemptions from such
registration and qualification requirements are available.  Shareholder
understands that only the Company may file a registration statement with the SEC
or applicable state securities commissioners and that the Company is under no
obligation to do so with respect to the Shares. Shareholder has also been
advised that exemptions from registration and qualification may not be available
or may not permit Shareholder to transfer all or any of the Shares in the
amounts or at the times proposed by Shareholder.  Shareholder is aware that the
Shares may not be resold pursuant to Rule 144, as promulgated by the SEC under
the 1933 Act, unless all of the conditions of that rule are met.
 
4.10   Legends.  Shareholder understands and agrees that the Company will place
the legends set forth below or similar legends on any stock certificate(s)
evidencing the Shares, together with any other legends that may be required by

the Shares as contemplated by this Agreement and such execution, delivery and
compliance does not conflict with, or constitute a default under, any
instruments governing the Shareholder, any law, regulation or order, or any
agreement to which the Shareholder is a party or by which the Shareholder may be
bound.  The Shareholder hereby adopts, accepts and agrees to be bound by all the
