Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the issuance, sale or delivery of the Series D Preferred Stock by the Company, nor the performance of the obligations of the Company and its securityholders hereunder or thereunder, nor any action by the Company contemplated hereunder or thereunder, violates any provisions of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, or violates or constitutes a breach of or a default under, or would result in the acceleration of or entitle any party to accelerate (whether after the giving of notice or lapse of time or both) any material obligation under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge, pledge, security interest or other encumbrance of any kind upon the property or assets (real, personal or mixed, tangible or intangible) of the Company pursuant to any provision of any material promissory note, security interest, bond, mortgage, indenture, lien, claim, charge, right, option, lease, agreement, license, pledge, encumbrance, instrument, commitment, law, ordinance, regulation, order, arbitration award, judgment or decree to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets (real, personal or mixed, tangible or intangible) are bound which would have a material adverse effect on the Company. 2 3 (e) Private Offering. The Company agrees that neither it, nor anyone acting on its behalf, will offer the Series D Preferred Stock so as to bring the issuance and sale of such securities within the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), nor offer any similar securities for issuance or sale to, or solicit any offer to acquire any of the same from, or otherwise approach or negotiate with respect thereto with, anyone if the sale of the Series D Preferred Stock and any such securities would be integrated as a single offering for the purposes of the Securities Act, including, without limitation, Regulation D thereunder. (f) Brokers. The Company has not retained, directly or indirectly, any broker or finder or incurred any liability or obligation for any brokerage fees or finder's fees with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. (g) Survival of Representations and Warranties. All the Company's representations and warranties herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any investigation by the Purchasers and the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock. SECTION 4. INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Series D Preferred Stock is not being registered under the Act, based, in part, on reliance that the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock is exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Act as not involving any public offering. Each Purchaser further acknowledges that the Company's reliance on such exemption is predicated, in part, on the several representations set forth below made by each Purchaser to the Company. (a) Such Purchaser is acquiring the Shares solely for such Purchaser's own account, for investment purposes only, and not with an intent to sell, or for resale in connection with any distribution of all or any portion of the Series D Preferred Stock within the meaning of the Act; (b) In evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Series D Preferred Stock, such Purchaser has relied upon the advice of such Purchaser's legal counsel, tax advisors, and/or investment advisors; (c) Such Purchaser is experienced in evaluating and investing in companies such as the Company. In addition, such Purchaser has a preexisting business relationship with the Company. As a result of such relationship, such Purchaser has access on a regular basis to the Company's financial statements and other records and information material to the Company's financial condition, operations and prospects. Such Purchaser has been given access to all books, records and other information of the Company which such Purchaser has desired to review and analyze in connection with such Purchaser's purchase of the Series D Preferred Stock hereunder. (d) Such Purchaser is aware that an investment in securities of a closely held corporation such as the Company is not liquid and will require such 3 4 Purchaser's capital to be invested for an indefinite period of time, possibly without return. Such Purchaser has no need for liquidity in this investment, has the ability to bear the economic risk of this investment, and can afford a complete loss of the Purchase Price; (e) Such Purchaser understands that the Series D Preferred Stock being purchased hereunder is characterized as "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws since the Series D Preferred Stock is being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Act only in certain limited circumstances. Such Purchaser represents that such Purchaser is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act; (f) At no time was an oral representation made to such Purchaser relating to the purchase or was such Purchaser presented with or solicited by any leaflet, public or promotional meeting, newspaper or magazine article, radio or television advertisement or any other form of general advertising relating to the purchase hereunder; and (g) Such Purchaser has read and understands the restrictions set forth in that certain Amended and Restated Securityholders Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment thereto dated as of September 28, 1999 (the "SECURITYHOLDERS AGREEMENT"). SECTION 5. STOCK CERTIFICATE LEGEND. Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the certificate evidencing the Series D Preferred Stock purchased by such Purchaser hereunder (or evidencing any other securities issued with respect thereto pursuant to any stock split, stock dividend, merger or other form of reorganization or recapitalization) shall bear, in addition to any other legends which may be required by this Agreement or applicable state securities laws, the following legend: "THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO SUCH SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION OR NO-ACTION LETTER ISSUED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT. THIS SECURITY IS ALSO SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AS SET FORTH IN THE SECURITYHOLDERS AGREEMENT, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON REQUEST FROM THE CORPORATION AND ANY SUCCESSOR THERETO." 4 5 SECTION 6.
