The undersigned makes the following representations, warranties and covenants with the intent that the same will be relied upon by the Company:

Section 2.1        Information.   The undersigned acknowledges that the undersigned has been offered the opportunity to obtain information, to verify the accuracy of the information received by the undersigned, to evaluate the merits and risks of this investment and to ask questions and receive satisfactory answers concerning the terms and conditions of this investment. The Company has made its officers available to the undersigned to answer questions concerning the Company and the investment being made hereby. In making the decision to purchase the Units, the undersigned has relied and will rely solely upon independent investigations made by the undersigned. The undersigned is not relying on the Company with respect to any tax or other economic considerations involved in this investment. Other than as set forth in Article 3 hereof, no representations or warranties have been made to the undersigned by the Company. The undersigned has been encouraged by the Company to consult with the undersigned’s own attorneys and other advisors with respect to all matters concerning this investment, has been given adequate opportunity to so consult, and has done so to the extent the undersigned has deemed appropriate. The undersigned has reviewed the package of materials accompanying this Agreement, including a Private Placement Memorandum, and the undersigned understands that copies of the Company’s other organizational documents (Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws) are available from the Company upon request.

Section 2.2        Not a Registered Offering.   The undersigned understands that the Units and the securities underlying the Units to be issued hereunder have not been and are not being registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) nor with the governmental entity charged with regulating the offer and sale of securities under the securities laws and regulations of the state of residence of the undersigned, and that such Units are being offered and sold pursuant to the exemptions from registration provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) and in Regulation D (Regulation D”) promulgated under the 1933 Act by the SEC, and pursuant to limited exemptions provided in the “Blue Sky” laws of the state of residence of the undersigned, and that no governmental agency has recommended or endorsed the Units or made any finding or determination relating to the fairness of the investment terms or the suitability of an investment in the Units by the undersigned. The undersigned is unaware of, and is in no way relying on, any form of general solicitation or general advertising in connection with the offer and sale of the Units. The undersigned is purchasing the Units without being furnished any Offering or sales literature or prospectus, other than the Private Placement Memorandum and other materials contained in the subscription package of which this Agreement is a part.

Section 2.3        Purchase for Investment.   The undersigned is subscribing for and acquiring the Units solely for his, her or its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to, or with any intention of, a distribution, sale or subdivision to or for the account of any other individual, corporation, firm, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association or person.

Section 2.4        Accredited Investor and other Investment Representations.   The undersigned represents and warrants that the undersigned is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the 1933 Act and that the undersigned has accurately completed the Accredited Investor Certification which appears at the end of this Agreement.

Section 2.5        Restrictions on Transfer: Other Restrictions.

(a)        The undersigned understands and agrees that because the offer and sale of the Units subscribed for herein have not been registered under federal or state securities laws, the Units (including any securities issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof) acquired may not at any time be sold or otherwise disposed of by the undersigned unless they are registered under the 1933 Act or there is applicable to such sale or other disposition one of the exemptions from registration set forth in the 1933 Act, the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder and applicable state law. The Company has no obligation to register the securities underlying the Units or to permit their sale other than in strict compliance with the 1933 Act, SEC rules and regulations thereunder, and applicable state law. The undersigned recognizes that as a result of the aforementioned restrictions, there is currently no public market for the Units subscribed for hereunder. Unless and until the securities underlying the Units are registered for resale, the undersigned expects to hold the Units (and any securities issuable upon conversion thereof) for an indefinite period and understands that the undersigned will not readily be able to liquidate this investment even in case of an emergency.

(b)        Reserved.

(c)        In addition to any legends required by the authorities of any state in connection with the issuance or sale of the Units, the certificate(s) evidencing the Shares and the Warrants (and any securities issued upon conversion or exercise thereof) shall have endorsed on the front or back thereof legends substantially as follows:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT COVERING THESE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE ACT OR UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”

Section 2.6        Investment Risks.   The undersigned represents that he, she or it has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he, she or it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Units. The undersigned recognizes that the Company is a development stage company with no financial or operating history; that the development and testing of medical treatments and therapies is difficult, time-consuming and expensive; that an investment in the Company is highly speculative and involves very significant risks; and that these risks include (but are not limited to) the risks specifically listed in the Private Placement Memorandum accompanying this Agreement. If the Company is unable to overcome or successfully manage these and other risks, it may never become profitable or be able to implement its intended business plan, and investors may lose their entire investment. The undersigned is capable of bearing the economic risks of an investment in the Units, including, but not limited to, the possibility of a complete loss of the undersigned’s investment, as well as limitations on the transferability of the securities underlying the Units, which may make the liquidation of an investment in the Units difficult or impossible for the indefinite future. The undersigned acknowledges that he, she or it has been advised to seek his, her or its own independent counsel from attorneys, accountants and other advisors with respect to an investment in the Units.

Section 2.7        Residence.   The undersigned, if a natural person, is a bona fide resident of the state set forth in his or her address on the signature page to this Agreement. The undersigned, if an entity, has its principal place of business at the mailing address set forth on the signature page of this Agreement.

Section 2.8        Investor Information; Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants.   The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Article 2 shall survive the execution and acceptance hereof and the issuance of the Units to the undersigned. Any information that the undersigned is furnishing to the Company in this Agreement is correct and complete as of the date of this Agreement, and if there should be any material change in such information prior to the undersigned’s admission as a shareholder of the Company, the undersigned will immediately furnish such revised or corrected information to the Company.

Section 2.15        Brokerage Commissions and Finders’ Fees.   Neither the undersigned nor anyone acting on behalf of the undersigned has taken any action which has resulted, or will result, in any claims for brokerage commissions or finders’ fees by any person in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. However, the undersigned acknowledges that the Company may in its discretion pay finders’ fees and/or brokerage commissions to one or more persons engaged by the Company in connection with this offering.

Registration Rights

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

If the Company shall decide to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the 1933 Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to each Subscriber a written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen days after the date of such notice, any such Subscriber shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement, all or any part of Subscriber’s shares of Common Stock underlying the Series C Preferred Stock and the Warrants (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”) such Subscriber requests to be registered; provided, however, that, the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this section that are eligible for resale without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act or that are the subject of a then effective registration statement; provided, further, however:

(i)        if the registration statement is an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 and is not on a Form S-3, and the SEC advises the Company that all of the Registrable Securities which such Subscribers have requested to be registered may not be included under Rule 415(a)(i), then the number of Registrable Securities to be registered for each Subscriber shall be reduced pro-rata among all the Subscribers to an amount to which is permitted by the SEC for resale under Rule 415(a)(i) and each Subscriber shall have the right to designate which of its Registrable Securities shall be omitted from the registration statement; provided, further, however, the Registrable Securities hereunder shall have first priority over shares being registered by any other third parties other than the Company; and

(ii)        if the registration so proposed by the Company involves an underwritten offering of the securities so being registered for the account of the Company, to be distributed by or through one or more underwriters of recognized standing, and the managing underwriter of such underwritten offering shall advise the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the distribution of all or a specified portion of the Registrable Securities which the Subscriber have requested the Company to register and otherwise concurrently with the securities being distributed by such underwriters will materially and adversely affect the distribution of such securities by such underwriters (such opinion to state the reasons therefor), then the Company will promptly furnish each such Subscriber of Registrable Securities with a copy of such opinion, and by providing such written notice to each such Subscriber, such Purchaser may be denied the registration of all or a specified portion of such Registrable Securities (in case of such a denial as to

 

-5-


a portion of such Registrable Securities, such portion to be allocated pro rata among the Subscribers); provided, however, shares to be registered by the Company for issuance by the Company shall have first priority, each holder of Registrable Securities hereunder shall have second priority, and any other shares being registered on account of other third parties shall have third priority.

8A.        Applicable to Individuals ONLY. Please answer the following questions concerning your financial condition as an “accredited investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D). If the purchaser is more than one individual, each individual must initial an answer where the question indicates a “yes” or “no” response and must answer any other question fully, indicating to which individual such answer applies. If the purchaser is purchasing jointly with his or her spouse, one answer may be indicated for the couple as a whole:

 

8.1        

Does your net worth* (or joint net worth with your spouse) exceed $1,000,000?

 

______

______

Yes

No

______

______

No

 

8.3        

Are you an executive officer of the Company?

 

______

______

No

* For purposes hereof, net worth shall be deemed to include ALL of your assets, liquid or illiquid MINUS any liabilities. For purposes of calculating net worth, (i) YOUR primary residence shall not be included as an asset, (ii) to the extent that the indebtedness that is secured by the primary residence is in excess of the fair market value of the primary residence, the excess amount shall be included as a liability, and (iii) if the amount of outstanding indebtedness that is secured by the primary residence exceeds the amount outstanding 60 days prior to the execution of this Questionnaire, other than as a result of the acquisition of the primary residence, the amount of such excess shall be included as a liability.

** For purposes hereof, the term “income” is not limited to “adjusted gross income” as that term is defined for federal income tax purposes, but rather includes certain items of income which are deducted in computing “adjusted gross income”. For investors who are salaried employees, the gross salary of such investor, minus any significant expenses personally incurred by such investor in connection with earning the salary, plus any income from any other source including unearned income, is a fair measure of “income” for purposes hereof. For investors who are self-employed, “income” is generally construed to mean total revenues received during the calendar year minus significant expenses incurred in connection with earning such revenues.
