(i) Participant has been advised to consult with its own attorney or attorneys regarding all legal matters concerning an investment in the Company and the tax consequences of purchasing the Securities, and has done so, to the extent Participant considers necessary.

The Participant (on its own behalf and, if applicable, on behalf of any person for whose benefit the Participant is subscribing) further acknowledges and consents to the fact the Company may be required by applicable securities laws and stock exchange rules to provide regulatory authorities any personal information provided by the Participant respecting itself (and any beneficial purchaser). By executing this Agreement, the Participant is deemed to be consenting to the foregoing collection, use and disclosure of the Participant’s (and any beneficial purchaser’s) personal information. The Participant also consents to the filing of copies or originals of any of the Participant’s documents described herein as may be required to be filed with any stock exchange or securities regulatory authority in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. The Participant represents and warrants that it has the authority to provide the consents and acknowledgments set out in this paragraph on behalf of all beneficial purchasers.

3. Representations and Warranties by the Company. The Company represents and warrants to Participant that:

(a) Due Formation. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to own or lease its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now being conducted. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, other than those jurisdictions in which the failure to so qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the business, operations or financial condition of the Company.

(b) Capitalization. The Company is authorized under its Certificate of Formation, as amended, to issue 200,000,000 shares of common stock. The Company’s disclosure of its issued and outstanding capital stock in its most recent SEC Filing containing such information is accurate in all material respects as of the date indicated in such SEC Filing. All of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable; none of such shares were issued in violation of any pre-emptive rights; and such shares were issued in compliance in all material respects with applicable state and federal securities law and any rights of third parties. No Person is entitled to pre-emptive or similar statutory or contractual rights with respect to the issuance by the Company of any securities of the Company, including, without limitation, the Securities. Except for stock options, warrants, convertible notes and other convertible securities described in the SEC Filings, there are no outstanding warrants, options, convertible securities or other rights, agreements or arrangements of any character under which the Company is or may be obligated to issue any equity securities of any kind, except as contemplated by this Agreement. There are no voting agreements, buy-sell agreements, option or right of first purchase agreements or other agreements of any kind among the Company and any of the securityholders of the Company relating to the securities of the Company held by them, except as set forth in the SEC Filings. No Person has the right to require the Company to register any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, whether on a demand basis or in connection with the registration of securities of the Company for its own account or for the account of any other Person, except as set forth in the SEC Filings. The issuance and sale of the Shares hereunder will not obligate the Company to issue shares of common stock or other securities to any other Person and will not result in the adjustment of the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of any outstanding security. The Company does not have outstanding stockholder purchase rights or “poison pill” or any similar arrangement in effect giving any Person the right to purchase any equity interest in the Company upon the occurrence of certain events.

(c) Authority; Enforceability. This Subscription delivered together with this Subscription or in connection herewith have been duly authorized, executed, and delivered by the Company and are legal, valid and binding agreements, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium, and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity; and the Company has the requisite corporate power and authority and has taken all requisite corporate action necessary for, and no further action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders is necessary for, (i) the authorization, execution and delivery of this Subscription, (ii) the authorization of the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, and (iii) the authorization, issuance (or reservation for issuance) and delivery of the Shares.

(d) No General Solicitation.

(e) Governmental Consents. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any federal, state or local governmental authority on the part of the Company is required in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription, except for the approval of the NYSE American. Subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Participant set forth in Section 2 hereof, the Company has taken all action necessary to exempt (i) the issuance and sale of the Shares and (ii) the other transactions contemplated by this Subscription, from the provisions of any stockholder rights plan or other “poison pill” arrangement, any anti-takeover, business combination or control share law or statute binding on the Company or to which the Company or any of its assets and properties is subject that is or could reasonably be expected to become applicable to the Participant as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation, the issuance of the Shares and the ownership, disposition or voting of the Securities by the Participant or the exercise of any right granted to the Participant pursuant to this Subscription or the other transaction documents relating hereto.

(f) No Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, currently threatened against the Company or any of its subsidiaries that questions the validity of this Subscription or the right of the Company to enter into it, or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or that might result, either individually or in the aggregate, in any material adverse changes in the assets, condition or affairs of the Company, financially or otherwise, or any change in the current equity ownership of the Company, nor is the Company aware that there is any basis for the foregoing. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is a party or subject to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court or government agency or instrumentality.

(g) Compliance with Other Instruments.

(i) The Company is not in violation or default (and no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a default by the Company), of any provisions of its formation documents, bylaws or of any instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract to which it is a party or by which it is bound or, to its knowledge, of any provision of federal or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, nor has the Company received written notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or not such default or violation has been waived). The execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a breach or default under any such provision, instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract or an event which results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company.

Neither the Company nor any agent on its behalf has solicited or will solicit any offers to sell or has offered to sell or will offer to sell all or any part of the Shares to any person or persons so as to bring the sale of such Shares by the Company within the registration provisions of the Securities Act or any state securities laws.
