W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, the Company has offered the Subscriber an opportunity to purchase shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") pursuant to a private offering (the "Offering"); and

WHEREAS, the Subscriber desires to purchase the Shares being offered on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. The Subscriber hereby subscribes and agrees to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the number of Shares set forth immediately before the signature page hereof at a purchase price of $[enter dollar amt. per common share]per Share. This Agreement represents an irrevocable offer by the Subscriber to subscribe for such number of Shares, except as expressly provided herein. This Agreement, subject to the terms hereof, shall become a contract for the sale of said Shares upon the acceptance thereof by the Company.

2. The Company reserves the unrestricted right to accept or reject this subscription, in whole or in part, and to withdraw this offer at any time. The subscription will not become effective unless and until accepted by the Company.

3. This subscription is accompanied by the undersigned's certified or official bank check or wire transfer of immediately available funds in the dollar amount set forth on page 4 hereof.

4. If this subscription is not accepted by the Company, the Company shall promptly return the undersigned's payment.

5. The Subscriber hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth below with the express intention that they be relied upon by the Company in determining the suitability of the Subscriber to purchase Shares. The Subscriber hereby agrees to advise the Company if any of Subscriber's representations in this Section 5 materially change prior to completion of this subscription.

(a) The Subscriber acknowledges that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or under any applicable state securities laws on the grounds that the issuance of the shares to Subscriber is exempt from

-1-

registration. The Subscriber further acknowledges that reliance on such exemption is, in part, based upon the representations, warranties and covenants of Subscriber contained herein.

(b) The Subscriber is acquiring the Shares for the Subscriber's own account as principal for the Subscriber's investment and not with a view to or for resale in connection with any distribution thereof.

(c) The Subscriber is a citizen of the U.S. and a resident of the State of [enter state of resident of shareholder] and will be the beneficial owner of the Shares standing in his/her name.

(d) The Subscriber has been furnished and has carefully reviewed information about the Company to allow him to make an informed investment decision prior to purchasing the Shares and has been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Company concerning the business plans of the Company, its present financial condition and the terms and conditions of the Offering and to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense necessary to verify the accuracy of the information contained therein or information that has been otherwise provided by the Company.

(e) The Subscriber acknowledges and is aware that: the Shares have not been approved or disapproved by the Securities and Exchange Commission or by any state securities commission, the Shares are a speculative investment which involve material risk of loss of the Subscriber's entire investment, and there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Shares.

(f) The Subscriber fully understands and agrees that the Subscriber must bear the economic risk of investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time because, among other reasons, the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or under any applicable state securities laws and, therefore, cannot be sold, pledged, assigned, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under applicable securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available. The Subscriber further understands and agrees that the Company will not honor any attempt by the Subscriber to sell, pledge, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of Shares in the absence of an effective registration statement for such Shares or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that an exemption from any applicable registration requirements is available. The Subscriber further understands that, other than the Selling Shareholder Agreement between the Company and Subscriber, dated [enter transaction date], the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares or make an exemption from registration available and that the Company has not represented that it will make any attempt to so register the Shares or to make such an exemption available. The Subscriber agrees to hold the Company, its officers and directors, and its and their respective successors and assigns, harmless and to indemnify them against all liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by them as a result of any sale or distribution of the Shares by the Subscriber in violation of the Securities Act or any state securities laws.

(g) The Subscriber understands that the certificate(s) representing the Shares will bear restrictive legends substantially in the following form:

THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND SUCH OTHER SECURITIES LAWS. THE SHARES MAY NOT BE RE-OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND SUCH REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION AS MAY BE NECESSARY UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

(h) The Subscriber has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as the Subscriber has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision.

(i) The Subscriber is aware that no federal or state agency has made any finding or determination as to the fairness of an investment in the Shares, nor any recommendation or endorsement of any such investment.

(j) The Subscriber recognizes that it is important under the Securities Act and state securities laws that the Company determine if potential investors are "Accredited Investors," as defined in Appendix A attached hereto. Subscriber represents that Subscriber is an Accredited Investor.

The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein shall survive the delivery of, and the payment for, the Shares.

6. This Agreement and subscription herein shall survive the death or disability of any individual Subscriber and the dissolution or termination of any subscribing entity, and this Agreement shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of any such Subscriber. All pronouns and any variations thereof used herein shall be deemed neuter, singular or plural as the identity of the Subscriber may require.
