Representations with respect to Purchaser preferred shares

The Company hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser, with respect to the Purchaser Preferred Shares, as follows:

Experience. The Company has experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions so that the Company is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Companys investment in Purchaser. The Company, by reason of the Company's business or financial experience or the business or financial experience of the Company's professional advisors who are unaffiliated with and who are not compensated by Purchaser or any affiliate or selling agent of Purchaser, directly or indirectly, has the capacity to protect the Company's own interests in connection with the purchase of the securities hereunder. The Company is an accredited investor, and intends for Purchaser to rely upon the Companys representations when accepting the Companys investment.

Investment. The Company is acquiring the Purchaser Preferred Shares for investment purposes only, for the Company's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distributions thereof within the meaning of the [YOUR COUNTRY] [DATE] Act. The Company understands that the Purchaser Preferred Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the [YOUR COUNTRY] [YEAR] Act and are being issued in accordance with a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the [YOUR COUNTRY] [YEAR] Act, which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Companys representations as expressed herein.

Rule [NUMBER]. The Company acknowledges that the Purchaser Preferred Shares must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the [YOUR COUNTRY] [YEAR] Act or an exemption from such registration requirement is available. The Company is aware of the provisions of Rule [NUMBER] promulgated under the [YOUR COUNTRY] [YEAR] Act, which permit limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

Access to Data. The Company has met with representatives of Purchaser and thereby has had the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, said representatives concerning Purchaser and the terms and conditions of this transaction, as well as to obtain any information requested by the Company. Any questions raised by the Company or its representatives concerning the transaction have been answered to the satisfaction of the Company and its representatives. The Companys decision to purchase the Purchaser Preferred Shares is based in part on the Companys own evaluation of the risks and merits of the purchase and Purchaser's proposed business activities.

Tax Consequences. The Company has reviewed with its own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of the investment in the Purchaser Preferred Shares. The Company is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of Purchaser or any of its agents and understands that the Company (and not Purchaser) shall be responsible for the Company's own tax liability (if any) that may arise as a result of the investment in the Purchaser Preferred Shares.

Transferability. The Company agrees, acknowledges and understands that, without the consent of Purchaser, the Purchaser Preferred Shares may not be sold, pledged, transferred or otherwise disposed of, provided that such restrictions shall not prevent the Company from converting the Purchaser Preferred Shares to shares of Purchaser Common Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Determination whereupon such shares may be transferred subject to applicable securities law restrictions.

Legends. The Company acknowledges and understands that the securities of Purchaser issued hereunder shall bear the following legends (and any other legends required under state securities laws in the opinion of legal counsel for Purchaser):

The Purchaser Preferred Shares shall bear the following legend:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE GIFTED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, RESOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF. THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (1) ARE CONVERTIBLE INTO SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OF THE COMPANY AT THE OPTION OF THE HOLDER, OR (2) UPON CERTAIN CONSENTS OF THE HOLDERS OF THE COMPANY'S SERIES [SPECIFY] PREFERRED STOCK, ALL PURSUANT TO AND UPON THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SPECIFIED IN THE COMPANY'S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION. A COPY OF SUCH ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION MAY BE OBTAINED, WITHOUT CHARGE, AT THE COMPANY'S PRINCIPAL OFFICE.
The Purchaser Preferred Shares and the shares of Purchaser Common Stock into which such Purchaser Preferred Share may be converted shall bear the following legends:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES [YOUR COUNTRY LAW] ACT OF [YEAR], AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR UNDER THE [YOUR COUNTRY] SECURITIES LAWS OF CERTAIN STATES. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND THE APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MIGHT BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE [YOUR COUNTRY] ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE [YOUR COUNTRY] STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
Brokerage and finder's fees

Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates has employed any broker, finder or agent, or agreed to pay or incurred any brokerage fee, finder's fee or commission with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or dealt with anyone purporting to act in the capacity of a broker, finder or agent with respect thereto as a result of which any claim for a fee can be asserted against Purchaser.
