Section 3.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. Cerone understands that the Common Stock is not registered under the Securities Act on the grounds that the sale provided for in this Agreement and the issuance of securities hereunder is exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, and that the Company’s reliance on such exemption is predicated on the representations set forth herein. This Agreement is made in reliance upon the representation of Cerone to Company, which by his execution of this Agreement, Cerone hereby confirms, that the Common Stock to be received by ‘him will be acquired for investment for his own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that he has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Cerone further represents that he does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the shares of Common Stock.

Section 3.3 Investment Experience. Cerone acknowledges that he is able to fend for himself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities of companies in a similar stage of development and in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Common Stock.

Section 3.4 Accredited Investor. Cerone represents that he is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect.

Section 3.5 Compliance with Securities Laws. Cerone represents that he:
