_____________________________

_____________________________

I hereby acknowledge that I have been informed as follows:

1.           The shares of common stock of the Company to be issued to me pursuant to the exercise of said option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and accordingly, must be held indefinitely unless such shares are subsequently registered under the 1933 Act, or an exemption from such registration is available.

2.           Routine sales of securities made in reliance upon Rule 144, if applicable, under the 1933 Act can be made only after the holding period and in limited amounts in accordance with the terms and conditions provided by that Rule, and in any sale to which that Rule is not applicable, registration or compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act will be required.

3.           The Company is under no obligation to me to register the shares or to comply with any such exemptions under the 1933 Act.

4.           The availability of Rule 144, if applicable, is dependent upon adequate current public information with respect to the Company being available and, at the time that I may desire to make a sale pursuant to the Rule, the Company may neither wish nor be able to comply with such requirement.

In consideration of the issuance of certificates for the shares to me, I hereby represent and warrant that I am acquiring such shares for my own account for investment, and that I will not sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of such shares in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the same, except as permitted by the provisions of Rule 144, if applicable, or some other applicable exemption under the 1933 Act. In view of this representation and warranty, I agree that there may be affixed to the certificates for the shares to be issued to me, and to all certificates issued hereafter representing such shares (until in the opinion of counsel, which opinion must be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to counsel for the Company, it is no longer necessary or required) a legend as follows:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND HAVE BEEN TAKEN BY THE ISSUEE FOR HIS OR HER OWN ACCOUNT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO THEIR DISTRIBUTION.  SAID SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNLESS (A) THEY HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER SAID ACT, OR (B) THE TRANSFER AGENT (OR THE COMPANY, IF IT IS THEN ACTING AS ITS OWN TRANSFER AGENT) IS PRESENTED WITH EITHER A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY OR A “NO-ACTION” LETTER OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE VOLUNTARILY OR INVOLUNTARILY SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, ENCUMBERED OR DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT UNDER LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES, AND SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL. THESE RESTRICTIONS AND RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL ARE SET FORTH IN FULL IN THE 2009 STOCK OPTION PLAN AND IN A STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ATTACHMENTS), COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.

I further agree that the Company may place a stop order with its Transfer Agent, prohibiting the transfer of such shares, so long as the legend remains on the certificates representing the shares.

Very truly yours,
 
   
“Optionee”
