5.3The Creditor represents and warrants that it is a resident of the jurisdiction specified in the Creditor’s address as set out in the first page to this Agreement and that it does not presently intend to trade any of the Offered Securities in or from a jurisdiction in Canada.  If the Creditor does, in the future, intend to trade the Offered Securities in or from a jurisdiction in Canada, it will, in addition to complying with the provisions of Section 4.2, re-submit all certificates representing the Offered Securities to the Company for purposes of having the legend set out in Section 13(1) of MI 51-105 endorsed on such certificates. 

 

5.4The Creditor acknowledges that an investment in the Company is highly speculative, and involves a high degree of risk as the Company is in the early stages of developing its business, and may  


Page 4 of 10


require substantial funds in addition to the proceeds of this private placement, and that only creditors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the Company.  The Creditor is an investor in securities of businesses in the development stage and acknowledges that the Creditor is able to fend for himself/herself/itself, can bear the economic risk of the Creditor’s investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters such that the Creditor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Company’s securities as contemplated in this Agreement.

5.8The Creditor understands that the Offered Securities will be characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that, under the Securities Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder, such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. The Creditor represents that the Creditor is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.
