registration contained in the Securities Act based in part upon the
Investor’s representations contained in this

experience in evaluating and investing in private placement
transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company so

Securities is highly speculative and subject to substantial risks.
The Investor is capable of bearing the high degree of economic risk
and burdens of this investment, including but not limited to the
complete loss of all contributed capital, the lack of a public
market and limited transferability of the Note, which may make the
liquidation of this investment impossible for the indefinite
future. The financial condition of the Investor is such that the
Investor is under no present or contemplated future need to dispose
of any portion of the Securities to satisfy any existing or
contemplated undertaking, need or indebtedness. The Investor acknowledges that the Investor
must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely unless
the Securities are registered pursuant to the Securities Act, or an
exemption from registration is available. The Investor understands
that the Company has no present intention of registering the
Securities. The Investor also understands that there is no
assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities
Act will be available and that, even if available, such exemption
may not allow the Investor to transfer all or any portion of the
Securities under
