EXECUTIVE’S REPRESENTATIONS AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

2.1 Executive’s Representations. In connection with the issuance and acquisition of Shares under this Agreement, the Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a) The Executive is acquiring and will hold the Acquired Stock for investment for his account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.

(b) The Executive understands that the Acquired Stock has not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom and that the Acquired Stock must be held indefinitely, unless it is subsequently registered under the Securities Act or the Executive obtains an opinion of counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, that such registration is not required. The Executive further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Acquired Stock.

(c) The Executive is aware of the adoption of Rule 144 by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, which permits limited public resales of securities acquired in a non-public offering, subject only to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Executive acknowledges and understands that the conditions for resale set forth in Rule 144 have not been satisfied and that the Company has no plans to satisfy these conditions in the foreseeable future.

(d) The Executive will not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Acquired Stock in violation of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the rules promulgated thereunder, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The Executive agrees that he will not dispose of the Acquired Stock unless and until he has complied with all requirements of this Agreement applicable to the disposition of the Acquired Stock and he has provided the Company with written assurances, in substance and form satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, that (A) the proposed disposition does not require registration of the Acquired Stock under the Securities Act or all appropriate action necessary for compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act or with any exemption from registration available under the Securities Act (including Rule 144) has been taken, and (B) the proposed disposition will not result in the contravention of any transfer restrictions applicable to the Acquired Stock under the Rules of the California Corporations Commissioner.

2

(e) The Executive has been furnished with, and has had access to, such information as he considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to invest in the Acquired Stock, and the Executive has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the issuance of the Acquired Stock.

(f) The Executive is aware that his investment in the Company is a speculative investment that has limited liquidity and is subject to the risk of complete loss. The Executive is able, without impairing his financial condition, to hold the Acquired Stock for an indefinite period and to suffer a complete loss of his investment in the Acquired Stock.

(g) The Executive either has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company or any of its officers, directors or controlling persons, or by reason of the Executive’s business or financial experience or the business or financial experience of his professional advisors, who are unaffiliated with and who are not compensated by the Company or any affiliate or selling agent of the Company, directly or indirectly, the Executive could be reasonably assumed to have the capacity to protect his own interests in connection with the issuance of the Acquired Stock.

2.2 Additional Shares or Substituted Securities. In the event of the declaration of a stock dividend, the declaration of an extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than stock, a spin-off, a stock split, a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding securities without receipt of consideration, any new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including money paid other than as an ordinary cash dividend) that by reason of such transaction are distributed with respect to any shares of Acquired Stock, or into which such shares of Acquired Stock thereby become convertible shall be deemed to be shares of Acquired Stock. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the distribution of such securities or property shall be made to the number and/or class of the Acquired Stock.

2.3 Securities Law Restrictions. Regardless of whether the offering and sale of Shares under this Agreement have been registered under the Securities Act or have been registered or qualified under the securities laws of any state, the Company at its discretion may impose restrictions upon the sale, pledge or other transfer of the Acquired Stock (including the placement of appropriate legends on stock certificates or the imposition of stop-transfer instructions) if, in the judgment of the Company, such restrictions are necessary or desirable in order to achieve compliance with the Securities Act, the securities laws of any state or any other law.

2.4 Market Stand-Off. The Executive hereby agrees that he shall not, to the extent requested by the Company or an underwriter of securities of the Company, sell or otherwise transfer or dispose, directly or indirectly, of any shares of Acquired Stock for up to one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act; provided that, all executive officers and directors of the Company then holding common stock of the Company enter into similar agreements. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company shall have the right to place restrictive legends on the certificates representing the shares subject to this Section and to impose stop transfer instructions with respect to such shares until the end of such period.

2.5 No Retention Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Executive any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining the Executive) or of the Executive, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate his Service at any time and for any reason, with or without Cause.

2.6 Legends. The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree that the following legend, together with such additional legends as may be provided for in any other agreements by or among the parties, shall be typed on each certificate evidencing any of the securities issued hereunder held at any time by any of the Executive or his permitted transferees:
