3. Approvals. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that this subscription is subject to, and limited by, the appropriate consent and approvals by the Company’s Board of Directors and, if applicable, shareholders.
 
4. Acceptance or Rejection of Subscription. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that this subscription shall not be effective until accepted in writing by the Company, and that the Company reserves the right to reject this Subscription in whole or in part in its sole discretion. Subscriptions may be rejected for failure to conform to the requirements of the offering, insufficient documentation, oversubscription of the offering or for any such other reason as the Company may determine, in its sole discretion, to be in the best interests of the Company. In the event of rejection of this subscription Subscriber's funds, together with any earnings thereon, will promptly be returned to Subscriber without deduction and this Subscription Agreement shall have no further force or effect.
 
5. Acceptance of Subscription. In the event Subscriber's subscription is accepted by the Company, Subscriber's Securities shall be issued as of the date specified by the Company at the time of acceptance.
 




 
6. Subscriber's Representations and Warranties. Subscriber represents, warrants, acknowledges and agrees that:
 
(a) Subscriber is a resident of the state indicated on the signature page hereof, is legally competent to execute this Subscription Agreement, and:
 
(i) if Subscriber is an individual, has his or her principal residence in such state;
 
(ii) if Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company or other form of business organization, has its principal office in such state; or  
 
(iii) if Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company or other form of business organization, Subscriber has not been organized for the specific purpose of acquiring any of the Securities.
 
(b) Subscriber has not been offered the Securities by any form of general solicitation or general advertising, including but not limited to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, or any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or general advertising.
 
(c) Subscriber has had access during the course of this transaction and prior to the issuance of any of the Securities to all information necessary to enable Subscriber to evaluate the merits and risks of a prospective investment in the Company (including, without limitation, the periodic and other reports filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), and Subscriber has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the officers and directors of the Company, or a person or persons acting on its behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and all questions raised by Subscriber have been answered to the full satisfaction of Subscriber.
 
(d) There are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Securities and, accordingly, Subscriber will need to bear the economic risk of the investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time and will not be readily able to liquidate the investment in case of an emergency.
 
(e) Subscriber understands that the Company has a limited financial or operating history, each of the Securities is a speculative investment which involves a high degree of financial risk, and there is no assurance of any economic, income or tax benefit from such investment.
 
(f) In making this investment, Subscriber is relying solely upon the advice of Subscriber's personal tax advisors, and not the Company nor its advisers and counsel, with respect to the tax aspects of an investment in the Securities.
 
(g) If Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company, employee benefit plan or other entity, Subscriber is authorized and qualified to become a stockholder of the Company and the person signing this Subscription Agreement on behalf of such entity has been duly authorized by such entity to do so.
 
(h) No representations or warranties have been made to Subscriber by the Company or any officer, employee, agent or affiliate of the Company, and Subscriber's investment decision has been based solely upon Subscriber's independent evaluation and due diligence, if any, of the Company.

(i) Subscriber is experienced in evaluating and investing in early stage companies such as the Company. Subscriber is experienced in business matters and regards himself, herself or itself as a sophisticated investor able to evaluate investment and financial information and to choose independent professional advisors to assist in such evaluation and, either alone or with such advisers, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that Subscriber is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in each of the Securities and has the capacity to protect Subscriber’s own interests in connection with Subscriber’s proposed investment in the Securities.
 
(j) Subscriber’s aggregate commitments to investments that are not readily marketable are not disproportionate to Subscriber’s net worth and an investment in the Securities will not cause such aggregate commitment to become excessive. Subscriber has adequate means of providing for Subscriber’s current needs and possible personal and family contingencies. Subscriber will not be readily able to liquidate the investment in the case of an emergency, and Subscriber has no need for liquidity in this investment in the Company.
 
(k) Subscriber has a preexisting business or personal relationship with the Company or with one or more of its officers or directors. Subscriber is purchasing the Securities solely for Subscriber’s own account for investment (and not for the account of any other person), and not with a view to, or for, any resale, distribution, fractionalization or other transfer thereof, and Subscriber has no present plans to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement for any such resale, distribution, fractionalization or transfer.
 
(l) Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Company may at any time hereafter increase the amount of any of the Securities authorized to be issued by it, at the Company’s sole and absolute discretion.
 
7. Representations and Warranties Concerning Suitability and Accredited Investor Status. Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Company that Subscriber is an “Accredited Investor” (as defined under Regulation D as promulgated and amended by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act) on the basis of the representations made by Subscriber to the Company below. Subscriber hereby represents and warrants that:
 
(a) Subscriber has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Company and has obtained sufficient information from the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company.
 
(b) Subscriber has determined that the Securities are a suitable investment for Subscriber. Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk of the investment in the Company (including a complete loss thereof) and has adequate financial or other means for providing for Subscriber's current needs and contingencies and has no need for liquidity in this investment.
 
8. Indemnification. Subscriber recognizes that the offer and sale of the Securities to Subscriber were and will be based upon the representations, warranties, acknowledgments and agreements of Subscriber contained in this Subscription Agreement and hereby agrees to defend and indemnify the Company (and anyone acting on its behalf) with respect to the sale of the Securities, and to hold each such person or entity harmless from and against all losses, liabilities, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising by reason of or in connection with any misrepresentation or any breach of such warranty by Subscriber, or arising as a result of the sale or distribution of any of the Securities by the undersigned in violation of the Securities Act, or any applicable state securities laws, or Subscriber's failure to fulfill any of Subscriber's covenants or agreements set forth herein.
