4.           Representations of Subscriber.  In connection with the purchase of the Shares and Warrants, the Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
 
 
a.
The Subscriber is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.
 
 
b.
The Shares and Warrants are being purchased for the Subscriber’s own account without the participation of any other person, with the intent of holding the Shares and Warrants for investment and without the intent of participating, directly or indirectly, in a distribution of the Shares and not with a view to, or for a resale in connection with, any distribution of the Shares and Warrants or any portion thereof, nor is the undersigned aware of the existence of any distribution of the Company’s securities.  Furthermore, the undersigned has no present intention of dividing such Shares and Warrants with others or reselling or otherwise disposing of any portion of such Shares and Warrants, either currently or after the passage of a fixed or predeterminable period of time, or upon the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any predetermined event or circumstance.
 
 
c.
The Subscriber has no need for liquidity with respect to his purchase of the Shares and Warrants and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares and Warrants for an indefinite period of time and is further able to afford a complete loss of such investment.
 
 
d.
The Subscriber represents that his financial commitment to all investments (including his investment in the Company) is reasonable relative to his net worth and liquid net worth.
 
 
e.
The Subscriber recognizes that the Shares and Warrants will be sold to the Subscriber without registration under any United States federal or other law relating to the registration of securities for sale.
 
 
f.
The Subscriber is aware that any resale of the Shares and Warrants and shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants (“Warrant Shares”) cannot be made except in accordance with the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or an exemption therefrom.
 
 
g.
The Subscriber represents and warrants that all offers and sales of the Shares and Warrants shall be made pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act or pursuant to registration under the Act, and the Subscriber will not engage in any hedging or short selling transactions with regard to the Shares and Warrants.
 
2
 

 

 
 
h.
The Subscriber is not acquiring the Shares and Warrants based upon any representation, oral or written, by any person with respect to the future value of, or income from, the Shares and Warrants but rather upon an independent examination and judgment as to the prospects of the Company.
 
 
i.
The Subscriber understands that the Company has had a limited operating history, and as a result, its operations have produced limited recurring revenues from its services and products; it has incurred expenses and has sustained losses.  Consequently, its operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a biotechnology company.  The Subscriber appreciates and understands the risks involved with investing in a Company with a limited operating history and has read and understands the risk factors and other information set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on December 20, 2013, and Form 10-K/A filed on May 1, 2014,  and the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly periods ended December 31, 2013 filed on February 10, 2013 and May 2, 2014, respectively, and for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2013 filed in  May 2014.  These reports and any future filings made with the SEC under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), can be obtained by visiting the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website at http://www.sec.gov.  The Subscriber agrees that it is not relying on any other written information which may have been provided by the Company.
 
 
j.
The Subscriber represents, warrants and agrees that it will not sell or otherwise transfer the Shares and Warrants without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and fully understands and agrees that the Subscriber must bear the economic risk of its purchase because, among other reasons, the Shares and Warrants have not been registered under the Securities 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 Securities Act and under the applicable securities laws of such states, or an exemption from such registration is available.  In particular, the Subscriber is aware that the Shares are, and the Warrant Shares will be, “restricted securities,” as such term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and they may not be sold pursuant to Rule 144 unless all of the conditions of Rule 144 are met.
 
 
k.
The Company, by and through itself and/or legal counsel, has made no representations or warranties as to the suitability of the Subscriber’s investment in the Company, the length of time the undersigned will be required to own the Shares and Warrants, or the profit to be realized, if any, as a result of investment in the Company.  Neither the Company nor its counsel has made an independent investigation on behalf of the Subscriber, nor has the Company, by and through itself and counsel, acted in any advisory capacity to the Subscriber.
 
3
 

 

 
 
l.
The Company, by and through itself and/or legal counsel, has made no representations or warranties that the past performance or experience on the part of the Company, or any partner or affiliate, their partners, salesmen, associates, agents, or employees or of any other person, will in any way indicate the predicted results of the ownership of the Shares and Warrants.
 
 
m.
The Company has made available for inspection by the undersigned, and his purchaser representative, if any, the books and records of the Company.  Upon reasonable notice, such books and records will continue to be made available for inspection by investors upon reasonable notice during normal business hours at the principal place of business of the Company.

5.           Agreements of Subscriber.  The Subscriber agrees as follows:
 
 
a.
The sale of the Shares and Warrants by the Company has not been recommended by any United States federal or other securities commission or regulatory authority.  Furthermore, the foregoing authorities have not confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of this Subscription Agreement or of any of the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
