Each Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company, solely as to itself, as follows:

 

  

2

  

3.1 Authorization.  Each Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.  This Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

 

3.2 Investment.  Each Purchaser is acquiring the Shares solely for investment and for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof.  The Purchaser has no agreement or arrangement, formal or informal, with any person to sell or transfer all or any part of any of the Shares and the Purchaser has no plans to enter into any such agreement or arrangement.

 

3.3 Accredited Purchaser.  The Purchaser is an “Accredited Investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and has truthfully and accurately completed the Accredited Investor Questionnaire attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A and will submit to the Company such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably requested by the Company. The Purchaser represents to the Company that any information which the undersigned has heretofore furnished or is furnishing herewith to the Company is complete and accurate and may be relied upon by the Company in determining the availability of an exemption from registration under Federal and state securities laws in connection with the offering and sale of the Shares.

 

3.4 Adequate Information. The Purchaser and the Purchaser’s attorney, accountant, purchaser representative and/or tax advisor, if any (collectively, the “Advisors”), have had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company’s officers and any other persons authorized by the Company to answer such questions, concerning, among other related matters, this Agreement, the Shares, and the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Company and all such questions have been answered by the Company to the full satisfaction of the Purchaser and its Advisors, if any. The Purchaser also acknowledges that the Company may repurchase or issue and sell shares of the Common Stock of the Company at a per share purchase price that may be greater than the Purchase Price paid for the Shares and such Purchaser has had the opportunity to consult with its Advisors with respect to the tax implications regarding the purchase of the Shares.

 

3.5 Non-Reliance. In evaluating the suitability of an investment in the Company, the Purchaser has not relied upon any representation or other information (oral or written) other than as stated in this Agreement or as contained in documents so furnished to the Purchaser or its Advisors, if any, by the Company in writing. The Purchaser is not relying on the Company, or any of its respective employees or agents with respect to the legal, tax, economic and related considerations of an investment in any the Shares and the Purchaser has relied on the advice of, or has consulted with, only its own Advisors.

 

3.6 No General Solicitation. Each Purchaser is unaware of, is in no way relying on, and did not become aware of the offering of the Shares through or as a result of, any form of general solicitation or general advertising including, without limitation, any article, notice, advertisement or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television, radio or over the Internet, in connection with the offering and sale of the Shares and is not purchasing the Shares as a result of any seminar or meeting to which the Purchaser was invited by, or any solicitation of a subscription by, a person not previously known to the Purchaser in connection with investments in securities generally.

3.7 Investor Suitability. The Purchaser understands and agrees that purchase of the Shares is a high risk investment and the Purchaser is able to afford an investment in a speculative venture having the risks and objectives of the Company and has adequate means of providing for Purchaser’s current financial needs and foreseeable contingencies and has no need for liquidity from its investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time.  The Purchaser must bear the substantial economic risks of the investment in the Shares indefinitely because none of the Shares may be sold, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.  The investment is a suitable one for the Purchaser.

 

3.8 Specific Purpose. Each Purchaser that is an entity represents that it was not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares, is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby is authorized by, and will not result in a violation of any  law or its charter or other organizational documents, such entity has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to carry out the provisions hereof and thereof and to purchase and hold the Shares, the execution and delivery of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary action, this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of such entity and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such entity; or (iii) if executing this Agreement in a representative or fiduciary capacity, represents that it has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement in such capacity and on behalf of the Purchaser and the Purchaser has full right and power to perform pursuant to this Agreement and make an investment in the Company, and represents that this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser.  The execution and delivery of this Agreement will not violate or be in conflict with any order, judgment, injunction, agreement or controlling document to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound.

 

3.9 Brokers or Finders. Each Purchaser has taken no action which would give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finders’ fees or the like relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

3.10 Restricted Securities. None of the Shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares have not been recommended by any US Federal or State securities commission or regulatory authority and have not confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of this Agreement. The Purchaser understands that the offering and sale of the Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and, if deemed advisable by the Company, the provisions of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, based, in part, upon the representations, warranties and agreements of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement. The Purchaser understands that the Shares may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom.
