Such Purchaser hereby represents and warrants as follows:

(a)        Purchaser Bears Economic Risk. Such Purchaser has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its own interests.

Such Purchaser understands that the Company has no present intention of registering the Purchased Series B Shares or any shares of the Common Stock. Such Purchaser also understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act will be available and that, even if available, such exemption may not allow such Purchaser to transfer all or any portion of the Purchased Series B Shares under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times that such Purchaser might propose or desire.

(b)        Acquisition for Own Account. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Purchased Series B Shares for such Purchaser’s own account for investment only, and not with a view to distribution, assignment or resale of the Purchased Series B Shares to others or to fractionalization of the Purchased Series B Shares in whole or in part, in each case, in violation of the Securities Act.

Such Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that in addition to any requirements under state securities laws, the Series B Preferred Shares are “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act as in effect from time to time (“Rule 144”) and must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Such Purchaser has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144, which permits limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things, the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale occurring following the required holding period under Rule 144, and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. Such Purchaser has been further advised that the Company has no present intention of satisfying the current public information requirements of Rule 144, and as a result such Purchaser will be able to rely on Rule 144 only under the limited circumstances described in that rule.
