Purchaser   is   acquiring   the   Note and the   Warrants   for the   Purchaser's   own

account, for investment only and not with a view towards, or in connection with,

the public sale or distribution   thereof,   except   pursuant to sales   registered

under or exempt from the Securities Act.

 

            b.   Accredited   Purchaser   Status.   The Purchaser is an   "accredited

Investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501 (a) of Regulation D. The Purchaser

and business   matters that the Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and

risks of an investment made pursuant to this Agreement.

 

            c. Reliance on Exemptions.   The Purchaser   understands   the Note and

the   Warrants are being   offered and sold to in reliance on specific   exemptions

from the registration   requirements of the applicable   United States federal and

accuracy of, and Purchaser's   compliance with, the representations,   warranties,

acknowledgments,   understandings,   agreements and covenants of the Purchaser set

forth herein in order to determine the   availability   of such exemptions and the

eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire the Note, and the Warrants.

 

            d. Information.   The Purchaser and the advisors of the Purchaser, if

any, have been furnished with all material information relating to the business,

finances and operations of the Company and material   information relating to the

offer and sale of the Note,   and the   Warrants   that have been   requested by the

Purchaser.   The Purchaser and Purchaser's   advisors,   if any, have been afforded

the   opportunity   to ask all such questions of the Company as they have in their

discretion   deemed   advisable.    Purchaser    understands   that   the   Purchaser's

investment   in the Note   and,   the   Warrants   involves   a high   degree   of risk.

Purchaser has sought such accounting,   legal and tax advice as it has considered

necessary to an informed investment decision with respect to the investment made

pursuant to this Agreement.

 

            e. Transfer or Resale. Purchaser understands that: (i) the Note, the

Warrants, the Warrant Shares, and the Note Shares have not been registered under

the   Securities   Act of 1933,   as amended   (the   "Securities   Act") or any state

securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold,   assigned or transferred

unless either (a) subsequently   registered thereunder or (b) the Purchaser shall

have delivered to the Company an opinion by counsel   reasonably   satisfactory to

the   Company,   in form,   scope   and   substance   reasonably   satisfactory   to the

Company,   to the effect that the Note, the Note Shares,   the Warrants and/or the

Warrant Shares,   as the case may be, to be sold,   assigned or transferred may be

sold,   assigned or transferred   pursuant to an exemption from such registration,

and (ii) except as expressly provided herein,   neither the Company nor any other

person is under any   obligation   to register such Note,   the Notes   Shares,   the

Warrant   Shares   and/or   the   Warrants   under   the   Securities   Act or any state
