To the extent that less than substantially all of the Notes are sold, the Company may be prevented from fully implementing its immediate business plans absent additional financing. Purchaser represents that he is aware that no minimum amount of proceeds need be raised by the Company as a prerequisite to close on the sale of a Note and to utilize the proceeds from such sale, it being understood that upon acceptance of this subscription by the Company, the proceeds from the sale of the Note will, subject to the closing obligations of the Company set forth herein, be immediately available to the Company.







                    4.8  Due Execution.

         4.9  Affiliate; No Investigations. Neither the Purchaser nor any officers, directors, shareholders or affiliates of the Purchaser are now, nor have ever been, an officer, director, or more than 10% shareholder of the Company or in any other way an affiliate of the Company. The term "affiliate", as defined in Rule 144(a)(1), is defined as is a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Company. Neither the Purchaser Investor nor any of its officers, members of its board of directors or any 5% holder of the Purchaser’s stock, is currently under investigation by any federal or state regulatory authority.
