ARTICLE V
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER
          Purchaser represents and warrants to the Seller and the Partnership as follows:
5.1     Authority.  Purchaser has full authority or capacity to execute and to perform this Agreement in accordance with its terms; the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the 









transactions contemplated hereby does not and will not result in a breach, violation or default or give rise to an event which, with the giving of notice or after the passage of time, would result in a breach, violation or default of any of the terms or provisions or of any indenture, agreement, judgment, decree or other instrument or restriction to which Purchaser is a party or by which Purchaser may be bound or affected; and no further authorization or approval, whether of governmental bodies or otherwise, is necessary in order to enable Purchaser to enter into and perform the same; and this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms.
5.2     Purchase Entirely for Own Account.  This Agreement is made with Purchaser in reliance upon Purchaser’s representation to the Partnership, which by Purchaser’s execution of this Agreement Purchaser hereby confirms, that the Interests to be purchased by Purchaser will be acquired for investment for 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 Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, such Purchaser further represents that such Purchaser does not 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 any of the Interests.
5.3     Disclosure of Information. Purchaser has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Interests. Purchaser further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Partnership regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Interests and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Partnership.
5.4     Investment Experience. Purchaser acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of its investment, has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Interests and recognizes that it may realize a loss of its entire investment in the Interests.
5.5     Accredited Purchaser.  Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect.
5.6     Restricted Securities.  Purchaser understands that the Interests it is purchasing are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Partnership in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), only in certain limited 









circumstances. In this connection, Purchaser represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.
5.7     Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Interests may bear one or all of the following legends:
“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE PARTNERSHIP THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT.”


5.8     Brokers. There has been no broker or finder involved in any manner in the negotiations leading up to the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of any transactions contemplated hereby, and Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Seller, the Partnership and the General Partner against and hold the Seller, the Partnership and the General Partner harmless from any claim made by a party for a broker’s or finder’s fee or other similar payment based upon any agreements, arrangements or understanding made by Purchaser.
5.9     No Untrue Representation or Warranty. No representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any attachment, written statement, schedule, exhibit, certificate or instrument furnished or to be furnished to the Seller pursuant hereto, or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact, or omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading.


ARTICLE VI
COVENANTS OF THE PARTIES
6.1     Further Assurances. Each of the parties agrees that, at any time after each closing, upon the request of the other party each will do, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or will cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and delivered, all such further acknowledgments, deeds, assignments, bills of sale, transfers, conveyances, instruments, consents and assurances as may reasonably be required for the better assigning, transferring, granting, conveying, assuring and confirming to Purchaser, its successors and permitted assigns, the Interests to be sold or assigned to Purchaser as provided herein.
6.2     Cooperation. The parties shall cooperate with each other fully with respect to actions required or requested to be undertaken with respect to tax audits, administrative actions or proceedings, litigation and any other 









matters that may occur after each closing, and each party shall maintain and make available to the other party upon request all corporate, tax and other records required or requested in connection with such matters.
6.3     Publicity.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that no publicity release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby or the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be issued without the advance approval of the form and substance thereof by each party hereto, which approval in any case shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
6.4     Consents. The Seller and the Partnership shall obtain all consents and approvals required as a result of the sale of the Interests to Purchaser.

6.5     Piggy-Back Registration Rights.  In the event that the Partnership, its successor or an entity that controls and/or, owns a majority of the equity interests of the Partnership or its successor offers its shares to the public by filing a registration statement with respect to any class of its equity securities and included in such registration statement are securities held for the account of one or more holders of equity securities of the Partnership or its successor, then the Partnership or its successor shall in each case give written notice of the proposed filing to Purchaser at least 20 business days before the anticipated filing date of the registration statement by the Partnership or its successor, which notice must offer to  Purchaser the opportunity to have any or all of the Interests of the Partnership or its successor held by it included in that registration statement. If Purchaser wishes to have any of those Interests registered under this Section 6.5, Purchaser must so advise the Partnership or its successor within 10 business days after the date of his receipt of that notice, specifying how many of the Interests it wishes to have so registered, and the Partnership or its successor shall include in that registration statement all Interests that Purchaser has requested be included therein, subject to the provisions of the next sentence. If the underwriter for the offering being registered shall determine and advise the Partnership or its successor in writing that marketing factors require a limitation in the number of Interests that can be sold in the offering then the Partnership or its successor will include in such registration the securities requested to be included pro rata among all partners with such rights on the basis of the number of Interests requested to be included by such holder.
6.6.     Additional Covenants. (i) None of the following actions shall be taken by the Partnership or the Seller after the Initial Closing without the approval of Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed:

(d)    Make, or commit to make, capital expenditures in any fiscal year in excess of the amount for such fiscal year reflected in a budget to be agreed upon by Purchaser or make any distributions to partners;
(e)    Sell, transfer, license, pledge or encumber any of the Partnership’s technology, intellectual property or material assets notwithstanding any conditions or covenants of this agreement; 
(f)    Sell substantially all of its assets or merger in a business combination with any third party or conduct an initial public offering;
(g)    Engage in a merger, reorganization or sale of equity of the Partnership; 
(i)    Amend the Partnership’s Articles of Organization or other organizational documents in a manner that could have an adverse effect on the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(k)    Make any material change in the nature of the business carried on at the date hereof.
