2.        REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES. The Purchaser hereby represents to the Company as follows:


 


(a)        The
Purchaser recognizes that the purchase of the Shares is extremely speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Such risks include,
among others: (i) the Company’s present financial condition and need for additional capital; (ii) limited liquidity of the
Purchaser's Shares and lack of trading market for the Shares; (iii) the low price of the Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred
Stock are convertible, which results in difficulty in depositing and monetizing such securities; (iv) limited transferability of
the Shares; and (v) the potential for sustaining a loss, including a loss of its entire investment in the Shares; and (vi) any
other risks or risk factors contained in the Company’s periodic and other reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and available on EDGAR (the “SEC Reports”).
Purchaser is capable of bearing the economic impact of such loss including the loss of their entire investment.


 


(b)       The
Purchaser has been advised of and acknowledges that (i) there is currently no market for the Series A Preferred Stock being purchased
herein, and it is not intended that any market will develop for the Series A Preferred Stock.


 


(c)       The
Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of an investment in the Company.

ask questions of and receive answers from duly authorized officers and/or other representatives of the Company and any additional
information which the Purchaser had requested. The Purchaser has also reviewed all information including the terms hereof and of

or applicable regulations thereunder. The Purchaser represents that the Shares are being purchased for the Purchaser's own account,
for investment purposes only and not with a view towards distribution or resale to others. The Purchaser agrees that the Purchaser

investment in the Shares pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder
