covenants, terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Holder agrees to deliver to the Company the

     2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Holder. The Holder hereby makes
the following representations and warranties to the Company, and covenants for the benefit of the
Company, as follows:



          (a) If a Holder is an entity, such Holder is a corporation, limited liability company or
partnership duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.




          (b) This Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by the Holder and
is a valid and binding agreement and obligation of the Holder enforceable against the Holder in
accordance with its terms, subject to limitations on enforcement by general principles of equity
and by bankruptcy or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and the
Holder has full power and authority to execute and deliver the Agreement and the other agreements
and documents contemplated hereby and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder.




          (c) The Holder understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance on
specific provisions of Federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the
truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and
understandings of the Holder set forth herein for purposes of qualifying for exemptions from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and
applicable state securities laws.

promulgated under the Securities Act.




          (e) The Holder is and will be acquiring the Securities for the Holder’s own account, and not

Securities Act, by virtue of Section 3(a)(9) and/or 4(2) thereof. The Holder understands that the
Securities purchased hereunder have not been registered under the Securities Act and that none of
the Securities can be sold or transferred unless they are first registered under the Securities Act
and such state and other securities laws as may be applicable or the Company receives an opinion of
counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company that an exemption from registration under the
Securities Act is available (and then the Securities may be sold or transferred only in compliance
with such exemption and all applicable state and other securities laws).

condition of the Company and its subsidiaries and/or any condition, circumstance, or situation that
would prohibit or otherwise materially interfere with the ability of the Company to perform any of
its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.




          (b) The Securities have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and, when paid
for or issued in accordance with the terms hereof, the Securities shall be validly issued and
outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and rights of
refusal of any kind.




          (c) This Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered on behalf of the

Company in accordance with its terms, subject to limitations on enforcement by general principles
of equity and by bankruptcy or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally,
and the Company has full power and authority to execute and deliver the Agreement and the other
agreements and documents contemplated hereby and to perform its obligations hereunder and
thereunder.




          (d) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement by the Company, will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach of
or a default under any of the terms or provisions of, (A) the Company’s certificate of
incorporation or by-laws, or (B) of any material provision of any indenture, mortgage, deed of
trust or other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or
any of its material properties or assets is bound, (ii) result in a violation of any provision of
any law, statute, rule, regulation, or any existing applicable decree, judgment or order by any
court, Federal or state regulatory body, administrative agency, or other governmental body having
jurisdiction over the Company, or any of its material properties or assets or (iii) result in the
creation or imposition of any material lien, charge or encumbrance upon any material property or
assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any agreement or
instrument to which any of them is a party or by which any of them may be bound or to which any of
their property or any of them is subject except in the case of clauses (i)(B), (ii) or (iii) for
any such conflicts, breaches, or defaults or any liens, charges, or encumbrances which would not
have a Material Adverse Effect.




          (e) The delivery and issuance of the Securities in accordance with the terms of and in
reliance on the accuracy of the Holder’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement
will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.




          (f) No consent, approval or authorization of or designation, declaration or filing with any
