6.
Securities Law Representations of Director. In connection with the issuance of the Shares, Director represents and warrants
to Company as follows:


 


(a)
Director acknowledges that the Shares will initially be “restricted securities” (as such term is defined in Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) (“Rule 144”) and that the certificates evidencing the Shares
will include this legend:


 


THE
SHARES (OR OTHER SECURITIES) REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. THE SHARES
MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL THAT AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION
UNDER SUCH ACT IS AVAILABLE.


 




    	 	2	 



    	 



    

 


(b)
Director further acknowledges that the Shares cannot be sold unless registered with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission and qualified by appropriate state securities regulators, or unless Director obtains written consent from Company and
otherwise complies with an exemption from such registration and qualification (including, without limitation, compliance with
Rule 144).


 


(c)
Director has adequate means of providing for current needs and contingencies, has no need for liquidity in the investment, and
is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares offered by Company of the size contemplated. Director represents
that Director is able to bear the economic risk of the investment and at the present time can afford a complete loss of such investment.
Director has had a full opportunity to inspect the books and records of the Company and to make any and all inquiries of Company
officers and directors regarding the Company and its business as Director has deemed appropriate.


 


(d)
Director is an “Accredited Investor” as defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”)
or Director, either alone or with Director’s professional advisers who are unaffiliated with, have no equity interest in
and are not compensated by Company or any affiliate or selling agent of Company, directly or indirectly, has sufficient knowledge
and experience in financial and business matters that Director is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment
in the Shares offered by Company and of making an informed investment decision with respect thereto and has the capacity to protect
Director’s own interests in connection with Director’s proposed investment in the Shares.


 


(e)
Director is acquiring the Shares solely for Director’s own account as principal, for investment purposes only and not with
a view to the resale or distribution thereof, in whole or in part, and no other person or entity has a direct or indirect beneficial
interest in such Shares.


 


(f)
Director will not sell or otherwise transfer the Shares without registration under the Act or an exemption therefrom and fully
understands and agrees that Director must bear the economic risk of Director’s purchase for an indefinite period of time
because, among other reasons, the Shares have not been registered under the Act or under the securities laws of any state and,
therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the Act
and under the applicable securities laws of such states or unless an exemption from such registration is available.


 


7.
Amendments and Waiver. No supplement, modification, or amendment of this Agreement will be binding unless executed in writing

respective successors and assigns.

of any other provision of this Agreement.


 


10.
Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
Washington applicable to contracts made and to be performed in that state without giving effect to the principles of conflicts
of laws. Any action to arising from this Agreement shall be brought solely in the state and Federal courts located in the County

shall be deemed an original instrument, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Any party
may execute this Agreement by facsimile signature and the other party will be entitled to rely on such facsimile signature as
