SECTION 3
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE INVESTOR
Investor represents and warrants to the Company that the following representations are true and complete in all material respects as of the Closing Date:
3.1 Authorization. This Agreement constitutes the Investor’s valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms except as may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) the effect of rules of law governing the availability of equitable remedies. Investor represents that Investor has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement.
3.2 Validity. When executed and delivered by the Investor, and assuming execution and delivery by the Company, this Agreement shall constitute a valid obligation of the Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
3.3 Domicile. The Investor is a resident in the jurisdiction as set forth on the Signature Page hereto.
3.4 Investment Representations. As an inducement to the Company to issue the Shares to Investor, and in order to establish the suitability for Investor of such an investment, Investor hereby makes the following representations and warranties, and authorizes the Company to rely upon the same:
(a) Investment Intent. Investor is aware of and familiar with the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach a knowledgeable and informed decision to acquire the Shares. Investor is acquiring the Shares for investment for Investor’s own account, not for resale, without any intention of or view toward or for participating, directly or indirectly, in a distribution of the Shares or any portion thereof.
(b) Accredited Investor. The Investor presently qualifies and shall as of the Closing qualify as an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act.
(c) Representatives. Investor has consulted with such professional advisors (the “Representatives”), if any, as Investor has seen fit in connection with this proposed investment.
(d) Experience. Investor and Investor’s Representatives, if any, have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of Investor’s investment in the Shares.
(e) Risks. Investor understands that an investment in the Company is speculative, that any possible profits therefrom are uncertain, and that Investor must bear the economic risks of the investment in the Company for an indefinite period of time. Investor is able to bear these economic risks and to hold the Shares for an indefinite period.
(f) Information. Investor and Investor’s Representatives, if any, have received all information and data with respect to the Company which Investor or Investor’s Representatives have requested and have deemed relevant in connection with an evaluation of the merits and risks of this investment in the Company, and do not desire any further information or data with respect to the Company prior to the purchase of the Shares.
(g) Securities Laws. Investor understands that (i) the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, that the Shares must be held by Investor indefinitely, and that Investor must, therefore, bear the economic risk of such investment indefinitely, unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the Securities Act or is exempt from such registration. Investor further understands that the Shares have not been registered under the “blue sky” laws of any state.
(h) Transfers. Investor understands that the Shares may have to be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and qualified or registered under other applicable securities laws, rules and regulations, which is highly unlikely, or unless an exemption from such qualification or registration is available.
(i) Legends. Investor understand and agrees that (i) the legends set forth in Section 6 will be placed on the certificate(s) evidencing the Shares; (ii) the stock records of the Company will be noted with respect to such restrictions; and (iii) the Company will not be under any obligation to register the Shares or to comply with any exemption available for sale of the Shares without registration.
(j) Further Limitations on Disposition. Investor covenants that in no event shall it dispose of any of the Shares (other than pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated by under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) or any similar or analogous rule) unless and until (a) the Investor shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (b) if requested by the Company, the Investor shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and substance to the Company and the Company’s counsel to the effect that (x) such disposition shall not require registration under the Securities Act and (y) appropriate action necessary for compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable state, local, or foreign law has been taken. Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in the foregoing sentence, if the Investor is a partnership it may transfer Shares to its constituent partners or a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the estate of any such partner or retired partner or transfer by gift, will, or intestate succession to any such partner’s spouse or lineal descendants or ancestors without the necessity of registration or opinion of counsel if the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Agreement to the same extent if such transferee were the Investor; provided, however, that Investor hereby covenants not to effect such transfer if such transfer either would invalidate the securities laws exemptions pursuant to which the Shares were originally offered and sold or would itself require registration and/or qualification under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws.
(k) Valuation of Shares. Investor understands that the Shares have been valued by the Board of Directors of the Company and that the Company believes this valuation represents a fair attempt at reaching an accurate appraisal of their worth. Investor understands, however, that the Company can give no assurances that the Price Per Share is in fact the fair market value of the Shares and that it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service could successfully assert that the value of the Shares on the date of purchase is greater than so determined.
(l) No Tax Advice. Investor understands that Investor may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Investor’s purchase or disposition of the Shares. Investor represents that Investor has consulted any tax consultants Investor deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Investor is not relying on the Company or the Company’s counsel for any tax advice.
3.5 Survival. The representations and warranties of Investor made pursuant to Section 3 hereof shall survive the Closing.
SECTION 4
CONDITIONS TO INVESTOR’S OBLIGATIONS AT CLOSING

RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS AND STOP-TRANSFER ORDERS

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT COVERING SUCH SECURITIES, THE SALE IS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT, OR THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY STATING THAT SUCH SALE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT OR HYPOTHECATION IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT.”
(b) Other Legends. The certificates evidencing the Shares shall also bear any legend required by law of the State of Pennsylvania or required pursuant to any state, local, or foreign law governing such securities.
6.2 Stop-Transfer Notices. Investor agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.
6.3 Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement, or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.
6.4 Removal of Legend and Transfer Restrictions. Any legend endorsed on a certificate pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) and (b) and the stop transfer instructions with respect to such legended securities shall be removed, and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of such securities, if such securities are registered under the Securities Act and a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act is available with respect to such Shares or if such holder satisfies the requirements of Rule 144.
