Additionally, Lender understands the Company will need to raise additional capital to pay off the Debenture when it matures.  Furthermore, any shares received on conversion of the Debenture will be restricted, may not be able to be resold and a trading market for such shares may not develop. Lender further acknowledges that and investment in the Debenture and the shares of common stock receivable on conversion of the Debenture involve substantial risk.

(a)

In order to provide documentation for reliance upon exemptions from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements for such transactions, the signing of this Agreement and the delivery of appropriate separate representations, including the “suitability letter” attached hereto as appendix “A” shall constitute the parties acceptance of, and concurrence in, the following representations and warranties:


(i)

Lender acknowledges that neither the SEC nor the securities commission of any state or other federal agency has made any determination as to the merits of the loan or Debenture, and that this transaction involves certain risks, including the possible loss of all funds loaned.


(ii)

Lender has received and read the Agreement and understand the risks related to the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated.


(iii)

Lender has such knowledge and experience in business and financial matters that he is capable of evaluating each business.


(iv)

Lender has been provided with copies of all materials and information requested by Lender or their representatives, including any information requested to verify any information furnished (to the extent such information is available or can be obtained without unreasonable effort or expense), and the parties have been provided the opportunity for direct communication regarding the transactions contemplated hereby.


(v)

All information which Lender has provided to the Company or their representatives concerning his suitability and intent to loan the Company funds is complete, accurate, and correct.


(vi)

Lender has not offered or sold any securities of the Company or interest in this Agreement and has no present intention of dividing the Debenture to be received or the rights under this Agreement with others or of reselling or otherwise disposing of any portion of such Debenture or rights, either currently or after the passage of a fixed or determinable period of time or on the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any predetermined event or circumstance.


(vii)

Lender understand that the Debenture has not been registered, but is being acquired by reason of a specific exemption under the Securities Act as well as under certain state statutes for transactions not involving any public offering and that any disposition of the subject Debenture may, under certain circumstances, be inconsistent with this exemption and may make Lender an “underwriter,” within the meaning of the Securities Act.  It is understood that the definition of “underwriter” focuses upon the concept of “distribution” and that any subsequent disposition of the subject Debenture can only be effected in transactions which are not considered distributions.  Generally, the term "distribution" is considered synonymous with “public offering” or any other offer or sale involving general solicitation or general advertising.  Under present law, in determining whether a distribution occurs when securities are sold into the public market, under certain circumstances one must consider the availability of public information regarding the issuer, a holding period for the securities sufficient to assure that the persons desiring to sell the securities without registration first bear the economic risk of their investment, and a





-6-



limitation on the number of securities which the stockholder is permitted to sell and on the manner of sale, thereby reducing the potential impact of the sale on the trading markets. These criteria are set forth specifically in rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.


(b)

In connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the Company and Lender shall each file, with the assistance of the other and their respective legal counsel, such notices, applications, reports, or other instruments as may be deemed by them to be necessary or appropriate in an effort to document reliance on such exemptions, and the appropriate regulatory authority in the states where Lender reside unless an exemption requiring no filing is available in such jurisdictions, all to the extent and in the manner as may be deemed by such parties to be appropriate.


(c)

In order to more fully document reliance on the exemptions as provided herein, the Company and Lender shall execute and deliver to the other, at or prior to the closing, such further letters of representation, acknowledgment, suitability, or the like as the Company or Lender and its counsel may reasonably request in connection with reliance on exemptions from registration under such securities laws including but not limited to an investment letter.


(d)

The Company and Lender acknowledge that the basis for relying on exemptions from registration or qualifications are factual, depending on the conduct of the various parties, and that no legal opinion or other assurance will be required or given to the effect that the transactions contemplated hereby are in fact exempt from registration or qualification.
