(b) The Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement has been duly authorized, if applicable, by the Purchaser, and this Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Purchaser. (c) The Purchaser acknowledges the Purchaser's understanding that the offering and sale of the Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and the provisions of Regulation D promulgated thereunder ("Regulation D"). In furtherance thereof, the Purchaser represents and warrants to and agrees with the Company and its affiliates as follows: (i) The Purchaser understands that the basis for the exemption from registration may not be present if, notwithstanding such representations, the Purchaser's intention is merely to acquire the Shares for a fixed or determinable -4- period in the future, or for a market rise, or for sale if the market does not rise. Accordingly, the Purchaser does not have any such intention; (ii) The Purchaser has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of the Purchaser's investment, has adequate means for providing for the Purchaser's current needs and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity with respect to the Purchaser's investment in the Company; and (iii) The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares. If other than an individual, the Purchaser also represents it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Shares. (d) The Purchaser is an "accredited investor," as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D as described in Appendix I hereto. ---------- (e) The Purchaser: (i) Has been furnished with copies of the Documents. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Documents supercede all written information regarding the Company which the Purchaser may have received prior to the date of the Documents.

(f) The Purchaser is not relying on the Company or its affiliates with respect to economic considerations involved in this investment.

The Purchaser further represents, warrants and agrees that the Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer the Shares purchased hereunder, without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that the Purchaser fully understands and agrees that the Purchaser must bear the economic risk of the Purchaser's purchase because, among other reasons, the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless it is subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under the applicable securities laws of such states or an exemption from such registration is available. In particular, the Purchaser is aware that the Shares are "restricted securities," as such term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), and may not be sold pursuant to Rule 144 unless all of the conditions of Rule 144 are met. The Purchaser also understands that, except as otherwise provided herein, the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares on the Purchaser's behalf or to assist the Purchaser in complying with any exemption from registration under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws. The Purchaser further understands that sales or transfers of the Shares are further restricted by state securities laws and the provisions of this Agreement. (h) No representations or warranties have been made to the Purchaser by the Company, or any officer, employee, agent, affiliate or subsidiary of the Company, other than the representations of the Company contained herein, and in subscribing for the Shares the Purchaser is not relying upon any representations other than those contained herein. (i) Any information which the Purchaser has heretofore furnished to the Company with respect to the Purchaser's financial position and business experience is correct and complete as of the date of this Agreement and, if there should be any material change in such information, the Purchaser will immediately furnish such revised or corrected information to the Company. (j) The Purchaser understands and agrees that the certificates for the Shares shall bear the following legend, or a similar legend to the same effect, until (i) such Shares shall have been registered under the Securities Act and effectively been disposed of in accordance with a registration statement that has been declared effective; or (ii) in the opinion of counsel for the Company such Shares may be sold without registration under the Securities Act or any applicable "Blue Sky" or state securities laws: -6- "THE COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND IS SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AS SET FORTH IN THIS CERTIFICATE. THE COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY, TO THE EFFECT THAT THE PROPOSED SALE, TRANSFER, OR DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTUATED WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT." (k) The Purchaser understands that an investment in the Shares purchased hereunder is a speculative investment which involves a high degree of risk and the potential loss of his entire investment. (l) The Purchaser's overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the Purchaser's net worth, and an investment in the Shares will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive.

The Shares were not offered to the -------------------- Purchaser in the United States and, at the time of execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser was outside the United States. (q) No Government Recommendation or Approval. The Purchaser ---------------------------------------- understands that no United States federal or state agency or similar agency of any other country, has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Company or the offering of the Shares hereunder. -7- (r) No Directed Selling Efforts in Regard to this Transaction. To the --------------------------------------------------------- best knowledge of the Purchaser, neither the Company nor any person acting for the Company has conducted any "directed selling efforts" as that term is defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S and no Distributor (as such term is defined in Regulation S) is participating in the offering of the Shares. (s) No Public Solicitation. The Purchaser knows of no public ---------------------- solicitation or advertisement of an offer in connection with the proposed issuance and sale of the Shares. (t) Investment Intent. The Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for his ----------------- own account as principal, not as a nominee or agent, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or for, resale, distribution or fractionalization thereof in whole or in part and no other person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in such shares of Shares. No Shares are being acquired, directly or indirectly, for the account or benefit of a U.S. person or a person in the United States. The Purchaser acknowledges that he must bear the economic risk of his investment indefinitely unless his Shares of Common Stock are resold in compliance with Regulation S, are registered pursuant to the Securities Act, or an exemption from such registration is available. The Purchaser has no present plan or intention to sell the Shares in the United States pursuant to any predetermined arrangements. Neither the Purchaser or any of its affiliates nor, to the Purchaser's best knowledge, any person acting on his behalf has or has the intention of entering into any put option, short position, or other similar instrument position or any other type of hedging transaction with respect to the Shares of Common Stock.

(w) No Plan or Scheme to Evade. The Purchaser understands that the -------------------------- exemption from registration under the Securities Act afforded by Regulation S is not available with respect to any transaction or series of transactions that, although in technical compliance with the requirements of Regulation S, are part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the Securities Act, and the Purchaser therefore confirms that its entry into this Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are not part of any such plan or scheme by the Purchaser to evade such provisions. (x) No Brokers. The Purchaser has taken no action which would give ---------- rise to any -8- claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder's fees, distributor remuneration or similar payments by the Company or a placement agent relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
