3.           Representations and
Warranties of the Company.  The Company hereby represents and
warrants to the undersigned that:




(a)           Organization and
Qualification.  The Company and its “Subsidiaries” (which for
purposes of this Agreement means any entity in which the Company, directly or
indirectly, owns capital stock or holds an
equity or similar interest) are corporations or other legal entities duly
organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdictions in which they are organized, as set forth in the disclosure
schedule attached hereto (the “Disclosure Schedule”), and have the requisite
power and authorization to own their properties and to carry on their business
as now being conducted.  The Company and each Subsidiary is duly
qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity to do business and is
in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the
nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, as
set forth in the Disclosure Schedule, except to the extent that the failure to
be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse
Effect.  As used in this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means
any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, operations,
results of operations, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and
its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.  The Company has no Subsidiaries
except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule or in the SEC Documents (as
defined below).




(b)           Authorization; Enforcement;
Validity.  The Company has the requisite corporate power and
authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to
issue the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof and
thereof.  The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company
and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Securities,have been duly
authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors and no further consent or
authorization is required by the Company, its Board of Directors or its
stockholders.  This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by
the Company, and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the
Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as
such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws
relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’
rights and remedies, and except that any rights to indemnity or contribution
under this Agreement may be limited by federal and state securities laws and
public policy considerations.




(c)           Issuance of
Securities.  The Securities are duly authorized and upon
issuance thereof in accordance with this Agreement will be validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect
to the issue thereof, with the holder being entitled to all rights accorded to a
holder of Common Stock.  Assuming the accuracy of each of the
representations and warranties of the undersigned contained in Section 2 of this
Agreement, the issuance by the Company of the Securities is exempt from the
registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act.

(d)           No
Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the
Securities) will not (i) result in a violation of the certificate of
incorporation, any certificate of designations, preferences and rights of any
outstanding series of preferred stock or the bylaws of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which
with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to
others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of,
any material agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries is a party, except which are the subject of written waivers or
consents which have been obtained or effected on or prior to the date hereof or
(iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or
decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable
to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected, except in the case
of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such breaches or defaults as could not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.




(e)           Consents.  Except
as disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule or in the SEC Documents, the Company is
not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any
filing or registration with, any court, governmental agency or any regulatory or
self-regulatory agency or any other Person in order for it to execute, deliver
or perform any of its obligations under or contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms hereof or
thereof.  All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and
registrations which the Company is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding
sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the date hereof (other
than filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Securities
required under Regulation D or applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws), and
the Company and its Subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances which
might prevent the Company from obtaining or effecting any of the registrations,
applications or filings pursuant to the preceding sentence.
