(a) Investment Representations and Covenants. The Holder is knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in making, and is qualified to make, decisions with respect to investments in securities including the Exchange Shares it is receiving hereunder. The Holder is acquiring the Exchange Shares in the ordinary course of its business and for its own account for investment only and with no present intention of distributing any of such Exchange Shares or any arrangement or understanding with any other persons regarding the distribution of such Exchange Shares within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. The Holder will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) any of the Exchange Shares except in compliance with the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws and the respective rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Holder understands that its acquisition of the Exchange Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any state securities laws in reliance on specific exemptions therefrom, which exemptions may depend upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of its investment intent as expressed herein.

(b) Authorization; Validity of Agreement. The Holder has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions

-7-

(c) No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Holder will not result in any violation of, be in conflict with or constitute a default under, any law, statute, regulation, ordinance, material contract or agreement, instrument, judgment, decree or order to which the Holder is a party or by which it is bound, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Holder to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) No Legal, Tax or Investment Advice. The Holder understands that nothing in this Agreement, the SEC Documents or any other materials presented to the Holder in connection with the exchange for the Exchange Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. The Holder has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its exchange for the Exchange Shares. The Holder acknowledges that it has not relied on any representation or warranty from the Company or any other Person in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(e) Restrictive Legend. The Holder understands that, until such time as a registration statement covering the Exchange Shares has been declared effective or the Exchange Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Exchange Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for the Exchange Shares):

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN FORM, SUBSTANCE AND SCOPE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.”
