(f) Status of Investor. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares pursuant to this Agreement.

(g) Knowledge and Experience; Economic Risk. The Purchaser has sufficient knowledge and experience in business and financial matters and with respect to investment in securities of privately held companies so as to enable it to analyze and evaluate the merits and risks of the investment contemplated hereby and is capable of protecting its interest in connection with this transaction. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of such investment, including a complete loss of the investment.
(h) Access to Information. The Purchaser acknowledges that it and its representatives have had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from officers and representatives of the Company concerning the Company and its business and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to obtain any additional information which the Company possesses or can acquire that is necessary to verify the accuracy of the information regarding the Company herein set forth or otherwise desired in connection with the Purchaser’s purchase of the Shares purchasable by it hereunder.

(l) Authorization of this Agreement. The Purchaser has duly authorized, executed and delivered this Agreement, and this Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms (except as enforceability may be limited by (x) applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium and similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (y) general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law)).
