No stop order or other order enjoining the sale of the Shares have been issued and no proceedings for such purpose are pending or, to the knowledge of the Controlling Stockholder or the Company, threatened by the SEC, or any commissioner of corporations or similar officer of any state having jurisdiction over this transaction. The sale of the Shares is legally permitted by all laws and regulations to which the Purchasers, the Controlling Stockholder, and the Company are subject.

4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS.

The Purchasers hereby represent, warrant, and covenant with the Company and the Controlling Stockholder as follows:

4.2 Due Execution. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Purchasers, and, upon due execution and delivery by the Company and the Controlling Stockholder, this Agreement will be a valid and binding agreement of the Purchasers.

4.3 Receipt and Review of SEC Reports. The Purchasers represent that they have received and reviewed the SEC Reports and have been given full and complete access to the Company for the purpose of obtaining such information as the Purchasers or their qualified representatives have reasonably requested in connection with the decision to purchase the Shares. The Purchasers represent that they have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the officers of the Company regarding its business prospects and the Shares, all as the Purchasers or their qualified representatives have found necessary to make an informed investment decision to purchase the Shares.

4.4 Restricted Securities. The Purchasers have been advised that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws and that the Shares are being offered and sold pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, and that the Company’s reliance upon this exemption is predicated in part on the Purchasers’ representations as contained herein.


	3

4.4.1 The Purchasers are "accredited investors" as defined under Rule 501 under the Securities Act.

4.4.2 The Purchasers acknowledge that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state and are being offered, and will be sold, pursuant to applicable exemptions from such registration for nonpublic offerings and will be sold as "restricted securities" as defined by Rule 144 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act. The Shares may not be resold in the absence of an effective registration thereof under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws unless, in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, an applicable exemption from registration is available.

4.4.3 The Purchasers are acquiring the Shares for their own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, a distribution, as that term is used in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, in a manner that would require registration under the Securities Act or any state securities laws.

4.4.4 The Purchasers understand and acknowledge that the Shares will bear the following legend:

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED FOR VALUE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND/OR THE SECURITIES ACT OF ANY STATE HAVING JURISDICTION OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT OR ACTS.

4.4.5 The Purchasers acknowledge that an investment in the Shares is not liquid and is transferable only under limited conditions. The Purchasers acknowledge that such securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Purchasers are aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which permits limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and that such Rule is not now available and, in the future, may not become available for resale of the Shares.

4.5 Purchaser Sophistication and Ability to Bear Risk of Loss. The Purchasers acknowledge that they are able to protect their interests in connection with the acquisition of the Shares and can bear the economic risk of investment in such securities without producing a material adverse change in Purchasers’ respective financial condition. The Purchasers otherwise have such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that they are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Shares.

4.6 Purchases by Groups. The Purchasers represent, warrant, and covenant that they are not acquiring the Shares as part of a group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

5. COVENANTS

5.1 Further Assurances; Cooperation. Each party hereto will, before, at, and after the Closing, execute and deliver such instruments and take such other actions as the other party or parties, as the case may be, may reasonably require in order to carry out the intent of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at any time after the Closing, at the request of the Company or the Purchaser, and without further consideration, the Controlling Stockholder (a) will execute and deliver such instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and confirmation and take such action as the Company or the Purchaser may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to more effectively transfer, convey and assign to the Purchasers, and to confirm the Purchasers’ title to, the Shares, and (b) will execute such documents as and take such action as the Company or the Purchasers may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to prepare and file any future SEC Reports that the Company seeks to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

5.2 Reverse Stock Split. The Purchasers and the Company agree that the Company shall not effectuate any reverse stock split of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company for a period of two-hundred seventy (270) days following the Closing Date (the "Black-Out Period") without notice to the Controlling Stockholder, except that the Company may conduct one (1) reverse stock split during the Black-Out Period in a ratio not greater than a 1 for 17.2222222 reverse stock split (the "Permissible Reverse Split"). In the event that the Company does conduct a reverse split during the Black-Out Period other than the Permissible Reverse Split, the Company shall issue to the Controlling Stockholder such additional shares of Common Stock to replace the number of shares of Common Stock lost as a result of the reverse split.
