2. BUYER'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
Each Buyer represents and warrants, severally and not jointly,
that:
(a) Investment Purpose. Each Buyer is acquiring the Securities
for its own
account for investment only and not with a view towards, or for
resale
in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof,
except
pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities
Act;
provided, however, that by making the representations herein,
such
Buyer reserves the right to dispose of the Securities at any
time in
accordance with or pursuant to an effective registration
statement
covering such Securities or an available exemption under the
Securities Act. Such Buyer does not presently have any agreement
or
understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to
distribute
any of the Securities.
(b) Accredited Investor Status. Each Buyer is an "Accredited
Investor" as
that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D.
(c) Reliance on Exemptions. Each Buyer understands that the
Securities are
being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions
from
the registration requirements of United States federal and
state
securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the
truth
and accuracy of, and such Buyer's compliance with, the
representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and
understandings of such Buyer set forth herein in order to
determine
the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such
Buyer
to acquire the Securities.
(d) Information. Each Buyer and its advisors (and his or, its
counsel), if
any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the
business,
finances and operations of the Company and information he
deemed
material to making an informed investment decision regarding
his
purchase of the Securities, which have been requested by such
Buyer.
Each Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the
opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its
management.
Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence
investigations
conducted by such Buyer or its advisors, if any, or its
representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Buyer's right
to
rely on the Company's representations and warranties contained
in
Section 3 below. Each Buyer understands that its investment in
the
Securities involves a high degree of risk. Each Buyer is in a
position
regarding the Company, which, based upon employment, family
relationship or economic bargaining power, enabled and enables
such
Buyer to obtain information from the Company in order to
evaluate the
merits and risks of this investment. Each Buyer has sought
such
accounting, legal and tax advice, as it has considered necessary
to
make an informed investment decision with respect to its
acquisition
of the Securities.
(e) No Governmental Review. Each Buyer understands that no
United States
federal or state agency or any other government or governmental
agency
has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of
the
Securities, or the fairness or suitability of the investment in
the
Securities, nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed
the
merits of the offering of the Securities.
(f) Transfer or Resale. Each Buyer understands that except as
provided in
the Registration Rights Agreement: (i) the Securities have not
been
and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any
state
securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned
or
transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder, (B)
such
Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel,
in a
generally acceptable form, to the effect that such Securities to
be
sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or
transferred
pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements, or
(C)
such Buyer provides the Company with reasonable assurances (in
the
form of seller and broker representation letters) that such
Securities
can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144,
Rule
144(k), or Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act, as
amended
(or a successor rule thereto) (collectively, "Rule 144"), in
each case
following the applicable holding period set forth therein; (ii)
any
sale of the Securities made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made
only
in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule
144 is
not applicable, any resale of the Securities under circumstances
in
which the seller (or the person through whom the sale is made)
may be
deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the
Securities
Act) may require compliance with some other exemption under
the
Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC
thereunder; and
(iii) neither the Company nor any other person is under any
obligation
to register the Securities under the Securities Act or any
state
securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of
any
exemption thereunder.
(g) Legends. Each Buyer agrees to the imprinting, so long as is
required
by this Section 2(g), of a restrictive legend in substantially
the
following form:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN
ACQUIRED SOLELY FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND NOT WITH A VIEW
TOWARD RESALE AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD,
TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE
SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS,
OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM,
THAT
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
Certificates evidencing the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares
shall not
contain any legend (including the legend set forth above), (i)
while a
registration statement (including the Registration Statement)
covering
the resale of such security is effective under the Securities
Act,
(ii) following any sale of such Conversion Shares or Warrant
Shares
pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Conversion Shares or
Warrant
Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if such
legend
is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities
Act
(including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by
the
staff of the SEC). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue
a
legal opinion to the Company's transfer agent promptly after
the
effective date (the "Effective Date") of a Registration
Statement if
required by the Company's transfer agent to effect the removal
of the
legend hereunder. If all or any portion of the Convertible
Debentures
or Warrants are exercised by a Buyer that is not an Affiliate of
the
Company (a "Non-Affiliated Buyer") at a time when there is
an
effective registration statement to cover the resale of the
Conversion
Shares or the Warrant Shares, such Conversion Shares or Warrant
Shares
shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that
following
the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no
longer
required under this Section 2(g), it will, no later than three
(3)
Trading Days following the delivery by a Non-Affiliated Buyer to
the
Company or the Company's transfer agent of a certificate
representing
Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, issued
with a
restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the "Legend
Removal
Date"), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Non-Affiliated
Buyer
a certificate representing such shares that is free from all
restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any
notation
on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of
the
Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in
this
Section. Each Buyer acknowledges that the Company's
agreement
hereunder to remove all legends from Conversion Shares or
Warrant
Shares is not an affirmative statement or representation that
such
Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares are freely tradable. Each
Buyer,
severally and not jointly with the other Buyers, agrees that
the
removal of the restrictive legend from certificates
representing
Securities as set forth in this Section 3(g) is predicated upon
the
Company's reliance that the buyer will sell any Securities
pursuant to
either the registration requirements of the Securities Act,
including
any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an
exemption
therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a
Registration
Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of
distribution set forth therein.
(h) Authorization, Enforcement. This Agreement has been duly and
validly
authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of such Buyer and
is a
valid and binding agreement of such Buyer enforceable in
accordance
with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited
by
general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar
laws
relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of
applicable
creditors' rights and remedies.
(i) Receipt of Documents. Each Buyer and his or its counsel
has
received and read in their entirety: (i) this Agreement and
each
representation, warranty and covenant set forth herein and
the
Transaction Documents (as defined herein); (ii) all due
diligence
and other information necessary to verify the accuracy and
completeness of such representations, warranties and
covenants;
(iii) the Company's Form 10-KSB] for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2006; (iv) the Company's Form 10-QSB for the
fiscal
quarter ended September 30, 2007 and (v) answers to all
questions
each Buyer submitted to the Company regarding an investment
in
the Company; and each Buyer has relied on the information
contained therein and has not been furnished any other
documents,
literature, memorandum or prospectus.
(j) Due Formation of Corporate and Other Buyers. If the Buyer(s)
is a
corporation, trust, partnership or other entity that is not
an
individual person, it has been formed and validly exists and has
not
been organized for the specific purpose of purchasing the
Securities
and is not prohibited from doing so.
(k) No Legal Advice From the Company. Each Buyer acknowledges,
that it had
the opportunity to review this Agreement and the
transactions
contemplated by this Agreement with his or its own legal counsel
and
investment and tax advisors. Each Buyer is relying solely on
such
counsel and advisors and not on any statements or
representations of
the Company or any of its representatives or agents for legal,
tax or
investment advice with respect to this investment, the
transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or the securities laws of any
jurisdiction.
