10.

Disclosure.  Because this offering is limited to accredited investors as defined in Section 2(15) of the Act, and Rule 501 promulgated thereunder, in reliance upon the exemption contained in Section 4(2) of the Act and applicable state securities laws, the Notes are being sold without registration under the Act. I acknowledge receipt of the Offering Documents and all related documents and represent that I have carefully reviewed and understand the Offering Documents and its exhibits. I have received all information and materials regarding the Company that I have requested. I fully understand that the Company has a limited financial and operating history and that the Notes are speculative investments, which involve a high degree of risk of the loss of my entire investment. I fully understand the nature of the risks involved in purchasing the Notes and I am qualified by my know ledge and experience to evaluate investments of this type. I have carefully considered the potential risks relating to the Company and purchase of its Notes and have, in particular, reviewed each of the risks set forth in the Offering Documents. Both my advisors and I have had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company or persons acting on its behalf concerning the Company and the terms and conditions of a proposed investment in the Company and my advisors and I have also had the opportunity to obtain additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of information furnished about the Company. Accordingly, I have independently evaluated the risks of purchasing the Notes.

(g)

I have been given access to full and complete information regarding the Company and have utilized such access to my satisfaction for the purpose of obtaining information in addition to, or verifying information included in, the Offering Documents and related documents, and I have either met with or been given reasonable opportunity to meet with officers of the Company for the purpose of asking questions of, and receiving answers from, such officers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Notes and the business and operations of the Company and to obtain any additional information, to the extent reasonably available.

I have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Notes and have obtained, in my judgment, sufficient information from the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company.

(n)

I understand that (1) the Notes and the underlying securities have not been registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of certain states in reliance on specific exemptions from registration, (2) no securities administrator of any state or the federal government has recommended or endorsed this offering or made any finding or determination relating to the fairness of an investment in the Company and (3) the Company is relying on my representations and agreements for the purpose of determining whether this transaction meets the requirements of the exemptions afforded by the Securities Act and certain state securities laws.
