(f)  Investment Intent.  The Shares are being acquired for Purchaser's own account for investment purposes only, not as a nominee or agent and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same.  By executing this Agreement, Purchaser further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or third person with respect to any of the Shares.

(h)  Investment Experience.  Purchaser has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in financial, tax and business matters in general, and investments in securities in particular, that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Shares, and Purchaser has made such investigations in connection herewith as it deemed necessary or desirable so as to make an informed investment decision without relying upon the Company for legal or tax advice related to this investment.  In making its decision to acquire the Shares, Purchaser has not relied upon any information other than information provided to it by the Company or its representatives and contained herein, including the representations and warranties and covenants of the Company contained herein

(i)  Access to Information.  Purchaser acknowledges that it has had access to and has reviewed all documents and records relating to the Company, including, but not limited to, the Company's Annual Report on SEC Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2015, June 30, 2015, and September 30, 2015, and any Current Reports on SEC Form 8-K filed with the SEC after June 30, 2015 and before the date this Agreement is executed (as such documents have been amended since the date of their filing, collectively, the "Company SEC Documents"), that it has deemed necessary in order to make an informed investment decision with respect to an investment in the Shares; that it has had the opportunity to ask representatives of the Company certain questions and request certain additional information regarding the terms and conditions of such investment and the finances, operations, business and prospects of the Company and has had any and all such questions and requests answered to its satisfaction; and that it understands the risks and other considerations relating to such investment.  Purchaser understands any statement contained in the Company SEC Documents shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for the purposes of this Agreement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other document subsequently filed with the SEC modifies or supersedes such statement.

(j)  Reliance on Representations.  Purchaser understands that the Shares are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and Purchaser's compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Purchaser to acquire the Shares.  Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that any information that it has heretofore furnished or furnishes herewith to the Company is complete and accurate, and further represents and warrants that it will notify and supply corrective information to the Company immediately upon the occurrence of any change therein occurring prior to the Company's issuance of the Shares.  Within five (5) days after receipt of a request from the Company, Purchaser will provide such information and deliver such documents as may reasonably be necessary to comply with any and all laws and regulations to which the Company is subject in connection with the transactions contemplated under the Transaction Documents.

(l)  Investment Risks.  Purchaser understands that purchasing Shares will subject it to certain risks, including, but not limited to, those set forth in the Company SEC Documents and the following: (i) the offering price of the Shares offered hereby has been determined solely by the Company and does not necessarily bear any relationship to the value of the Company's assets, current or potential earnings of the Company, or any other recognized criteria used for measuring value and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the offering price of the Shares is representative of the actual value of the Shares; and (ii) in order to capitalize the Company, execute its business plan, and for other corporate purposes, the Company has issued, and expects to issue additional shares of Common Stock, securities exercisable or convertible into shares of Common Stock, or debt.  Such securities have been and may be issued for a purchase price consisting of cash, services or other consideration that may be materially different than the purchase price of the Shares.  The issuance of any such securities may result in substantial dilution to the relative ownership interests of the Company's existing shareholders and substantial reduction in net book value per share.  Additional equity securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the holders of Common Stock, and any debt financing may involve restrictive covenants that may limit the Company's operating flexibility.

(i)  During the five (5) year period ending on the Closing Date, neither Purchaser nor any subsidiary, director or officer of Purchaser or any subsidiary, or any employee, agent, or representative acting with authorization of Purchaser or any subsidiary, has directly or indirectly, whether through affiliates, partners, officers, employees, agents or representatives, paid, offered, promised, authorized or agreed to give any monies, gift or other thing of value or benefit, whether in cash or kind, and whether or not pursuant to a written contract, to any "Foreign Official", as defined in the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (the "FCPA") or employee of any Governmental Body (as that term is defined below) (including an official or employee of any public international organization or government-owned business or enterprise), or to any political party, employee or director thereof, or any candidate for a political position or any political subdivision for the sole purpose of influencing any act or decision of such official or employee, in violation of any Law, including but not limited to the FCPA (A) to further the business of the Purchaser or any of its subsidiaries, or (B) to assist the Purchaser or any of its subsidiaries in connection with any actual or proposed transaction in connection with the operations of the Purchaser or any of its subsidiaries.

13.  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Company may not assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement without the express prior written consent of the Purchaser.  Except as provided in Section 7, nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any person not a party hereto (and their successors and assigns) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.
