3.1 Shares Unregistered. Executive acknowledges and represents that Executive has been advised by the Company that:


 


(a) the offer and sale of Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act;


 


             (b) the Shares must be held indefinitely and Executive must continue to bear the economic risk of the investment in the Shares unless the offer and sale of the Shares are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available;


 


(c) there is no established market for the Shares and it is not anticipated that there will be any public market for the Shares in the foreseeable future;


 


(d) a restrictive legend in the form set forth below shall be placed on the certificates representing the Shares:








 


THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  SUCH SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, DELIVERED AFTER SALE, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED BY THE ISSUER WITH THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION COVERING SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.




 


 (e) a notation shall be made in the appropriate records of the Company indicating that the Shares are subject to restrictions on transfer and, if the Company should at some time in the future engage the services of a securities transfer agent, appropriate stop-transfer instructions will be issued to such transfer agent with respect to the Shares.


 


3.2 Additional Investment Representations. Executive represents and warrants that:


 


(a) Executive’s financial situation is such that Executive can afford to bear the economic risk of holding the Shares for an indefinite period of time, has adequate means for providing for Executive’s current needs and personal contingencies, and can afford to suffer a complete loss of Executive’s investment in the Shares;


 


(b) Executive’s knowledge and experience in financial and business matters are such that Executive is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Shares;


 


(c) Executive understands that the Shares are a speculative investment which involves a high degree of risk of loss of Executive’s investment therein, there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Shares and on the Closing Date and for an indefinite period following the Closing Date there will be no public market for the Shares and, accordingly, it may not be possible for Executive to liquidate Executive’s investment in case of emergency, if at all;

(d)  Executive understands and has taken cognizance of all the risk factors related to the purchase of the Shares and, other than as set forth in this Agreement, no representations or warranties have been made to Executive or Executive’s representatives concerning the Shares or the Company or their prospects or other matters;


 


(e) Executive has been given the opportunity to examine all documents and to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the Company and its representatives concerning the Company, the Company’s organizational documents and the terms and conditions of the purchase of the Shares and to obtain any additional information which Executive deems necessary;


 


(f) all information which Executive has provided to the Company and the Company’s representatives concerning Executive and Executive’s financial position is complete and correct as of the date of this Agreement; and


 


(h) Executive is or is not an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, as indicated on the signature page hereto.

             (b) “Confidential Information” shall not include any information that is (a) generally known to the industry or the public other than as a result of Executive’s breach of this covenant or any breach of other confidentiality obligations by third parties; (b) made legitimately available to Executive by a third party without breach of any known confidentiality obligation; or (c) required by law to be disclosed or in any judicial or administrative process; provided that Executive shall give prompt written notice to the Company of such requirement, disclose no more information than is so required, and cooperate, at the Company’s cost, with any attempts by the Company to obtain a protective order or similar treatment.


 


(c) Except as required by law, Executive will not disclose to anyone, other than Executive’s immediate family and legal or financial or tax advisors or lender, each of whom Executive agrees to instruct not to disclose, the existence or contents of this Agreement (unless this Agreement shall be publicly available as a result of a regulatory filing made by the Company).
