                Rule 144A; Rule

      regulations of the Commission, as amended, promulgated pursuant to the
      Securities Act ("Rules"), and that Purchaser has been advised that the
      Rules permit resales only under certain
      circumstances.  Purchaser understands that to the extent that
      Rule 144A or 144 is not available, Purchaser will be unable to sell any
      Shares without either registration under the Securities Act or the
      existence of another exemption from such registration
      requirement.

              

      

       

      
        	
              	
                (f)

              	
                General.  Purchaser
      understands that the Shares are being offered and sold in reliance on a
      transactional exemption from the registration requirements of federal and
      state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and
      accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements
      and understandings of Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the
      applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of Purchaser to
      acquire the Shares.  Purchaser understands that no United States
      federal or state agency or any government or governmental agency has
      passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the
      Shares.

              

      

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          
          

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

       

      
        	
              	
                (g)

              	
                No General
      Solicitation.  Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares
      were not offered to Purchaser by means of any form of general or public
      solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated
      advertisements or sales literature, including (i) any advertisement,
      article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper,
      magazine, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or (ii)
      any seminar or meeting to which Purchaser was invited by any of the
      foregoing means of communications.  Purchaser, in making the
      decision to purchase the Shares, has relied upon independent investigation
      made by it and has not relied on any information or representations made
      by third parties.

      "accredited investor" (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D), and a
      "qualified institutional buyer" ("QIB") as defined under Rule 144A of the

      financial matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
      an investment in the Shares.  Purchaser acknowledges that an
      investment in the Shares is speculative and involves a high degree of
      risk.

      Fees.  Purchaser has not employed any broker or finder or
      incurred any liability for any brokerage or investment banking fees,
      placement, commissions, finders' structuring fees, financial advisory fees
      or other similar fees in connection with this
  Agreement.

              

      

       

      
        	
              	
                (j)

              	
                No
      Shorting.  Purchaser has not engaged in any short sales

      agrees that at closing it will not be in a net short position with respect
      to the shares of Common Stock.

              

      

       

      
        	
              	
                (k)

      Risks. The Purchaser has
      had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management, and
      financial affairs with management of the Company and has been supplied

      information which the Purchaser has requested pertaining to the Company
      and its activities and an investment in the Company, including but not
      limited to the Private Placement Memorandum, a copy of which is attached

      liquidity in its investment.

      circumstances.  Purchaser understands that to the extent that

      Shares without either registration under the Securities Act or the
      existence of another exemption from such registration
      requirement.

      understands that the Shares are being offered and sold in reliance on a
      transactional exemption from the registration requirements of federal and
      state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and
      accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements
      and understandings of Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the
      applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of Purchaser to
      acquire the Shares.  Purchaser understands that no United States
      federal or state agency or any government or governmental agency has
      passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the
      Shares.

                No General
      Solicitation.  Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares

      solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated
      advertisements or sales literature, including (i) any advertisement,
      article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper,
      magazine, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or (ii)
      any seminar or meeting to which Purchaser was invited by any of the
      foregoing means of communications.  Purchaser, in making the
      decision to purchase the Shares, has relied upon independent investigation
      made by it and has not relied on any information or representations made
      by third parties.

      investment in the Shares is speculative and involves a high degree of
      risk.

      placement, commissions, finders' structuring fees, financial advisory fees
      or other similar fees in connection with this

      agrees that at closing it will not be in a net short position with respect
      to the shares of Common Stock.

      financial affairs with management of the Company and has been supplied
      with all documents, records, financial statements, books and other
      information which the Purchaser has requested pertaining to the Company
      and its activities and an investment in the Company, including but not
      limited to the Private Placement Memorandum, a copy of which is attached

      and understands the risks of (including, but not limited to, the Risk
      Factors described in the Private Placement Memorandum), and other

      Company made herein or information provided to the
      Purchaser.  The Purchaser confirms that, in making its, decision

      receive answers from, persons acting on behalf of the Company concerning

      by the Shares, and it is able to bear the economic risk of such investment
      including, without limitation, the risk that such investment might be held
      indefinitely by it and the risk of complete loss of the
      investment.  The Purchaser has adequate net worth to sustain a
      complete loss of its investment in the Company and has no need for
      liquidity in its investment.
