Certain Matters Relating to the Shares of Common Stock. 2 i. The Stockholder is acquiring the Common Stock for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for, distribution, resale or fractionalization thereof, in whole or in part, in each case under circumstances which would require registration thereof under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any state securities laws. ii. The Stockholder has not been given any oral or written information, representations or assurances by the Company or any representative thereof in connection with the Stockholder's acquisition of the Common Stock other than as contained in this Agreement, and the Stockholder is relying on its own business judgment and knowledge concerning the business, financial condition and prospects of the Company in making the decision to acquire the Common Stock.

The Stockholder agrees that there may be affixed to the certificate(s) representing the Common Stock (until in the opinion of counsel, which opinion must be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to counsel for the Company, it is no longer necessary or required) the following legend: "The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and may not be sold, transferred, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of an effective registration statement as to the securities under the Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company and its counsel that such registration is not required." 4. Indemnification. Each Stockholder acknowledges that such Stockholder understands the meaning and legal consequences of the representations and warranties in Section 3 hereof, and hereby agrees, severally and not jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and affiliates, from and against any and all loss, damage or liability due to, or arising out of, a breach of any such representations or warranties made by such Stockholder.

Except with respect to the rights of the indemnified parties under Section 4, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any creditor or any other person, other than the parties hereto or their respective successors, any rights, remedies, benefits, obligations or liabilities of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. 6. Miscellaneous. a. This Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by a party against whom enforcement of such modification, waiver, or termination is sought. b. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. 4 c.
