THE PURCHASER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
 
The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:
 
Section 4.1    AUTHORIZATION.  This Agreement constitutes the Purchaser’s valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general equitable principles.  The Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and this Agreement and the Purchaser’s obligations hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary company action on the part of the Purchaser.

Section 4.6    RESTRICTED SECURITIES.  The Purchaser understands that the Shares constitute “restricted securities” under the Securities Act inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under the Securities Act and applicable regulations thereunder such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, the Purchaser represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 of the Commission, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.  The Purchaser understands that the Company is under no obligation to register any of the Shares or any of the Conversion Shares under the Securities Act.

Section 4.7    BROKERS.  The Purchaser has not retained any broker or finder in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or taken any action such as would entitle any broker or finder to a fee or commission in respect of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and/or the issuance of the Shares.
