In connection with, and in consideration of, the sale of the Securities to the undersigned, the undersigned hereby represents and warrants to the Company and its officers, directors, employees, agents and shareholders that the undersigned:

(a)           Has had an opportunity to perform due diligence related to the Company and ask questions of an officer of the Company and is satisfied with the results of such due diligence review.

(c)           Can bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time, can afford to sustain a complete loss of such investment, has no need for liquidity in connection with an investment in the Securities, and can afford to hold the Securities indefinitely.

(d)           Realizes that the Securities have not been registered for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or applicable state securities laws (the “State Laws”), and they may be sold only pursuant to registration under the Act and State Law, or an opinion of counsel that such registration is not required.

(e)           Realizes that the Securities may become publicly-traded in the future and that the market price of the Securities, from time to time, may be less than the price paid by the Subscriber for said Securities.

(f)           Is experienced and knowledgeable in financial and business matters, capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investing in the Securities and does not need or desire the assistance of a knowledgeable representative to aid in the evaluation of such risks (or, in the alternative, has a knowledgeable representative whom such investor intends to use in connection with a decision as to whether to purchase the Securities).

2.      Investment Intent

The undersigned has been advised that the Securities have not been registered under the Act or relevant State Laws but are being offered, and will be offered, and sold pursuant to exemptions from the Act and State Laws, and that the Company’s reliance upon such exemption is predicated in part on the undersigned’s representations contained herein.  The undersigned represents and warrants that the Securities are being purchased for the undersigned’s own account and for long term investment and without the intention of reselling or redistributing the Securities; that the undersigned has made no agreement with others regarding any of the Securities; and that the undersigned’s financial condition is such that it is not likely that it will be necessary for the undersigned to dispose of any of the Securities in the foreseeable future.  The undersigned is aware that (1) there is presently no public market for the Securities, and in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission a purchase of securities with an intent to resell by reason of any foreseeable specific contingency or anticipated change in market values, or any change in the liquidation or settlement of any loan obtained for the acquisition of any of the Securities and for which the Securities were or may be pledged as security would represent an intent inconsistent with the investment representations set forth above, and (2) the transferability of the Securities is restricted and (a) requires the written consent of the Company, and (b) will be further restricted by a legend placed on the certificate(s) representing the Securities containing substantially the following language:

The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under either the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or applicable state securities laws and may not be sold, transferred, assigned, offered, pledged or otherwise distributed for value unless there is an effective registration statement under such Act and such laws covering such securities, or the Company receives an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company stating that such sale, transfer, assignment, offer, pledge or other distribution for value is exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of such Act and such laws.

The undersigned further represents and agrees that if contrary to the undersigned’s foregoing intentions, the undersigned should later desire to dispose of or transfer any of the Securities in any manner, the undersigned shall not do so without first obtaining (1) an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such proposed disposition or transfer may be made lawfully without the registration of such Securities pursuant to the Act and applicable State Laws, or (2) registration of such Securities (it being expressly understood that the Company shall not have any obligation to register such Securities except as explicitly provided by written agreement).
 
3.      Residence

The undersigned represents and warrants that the undersigned is a bona fide resident of the State of (circle one)   , (other)  and that the Securities are being accepted by the undersigned in the undersigned’s name solely for the undersigned’s own beneficial interest and not as nominee for, on behalf of, for the beneficial interest of, or with the intention to transfer to, any other person, trust or organization.
