2.Accredited Investor Status. The Investor is an Accredited Investor and is a resident of the state or other jurisdiction set forth opposite such Investor's name on the Exhibit A. The Investors acknowledge and agree that the offer and sale of the Securities under this Agreement are solely to Accredited Investors, and that each Investor must be an Accredited Investor in order to purchase the Securities under this Agreement. The Investors further acknowledge that the Company is relying on Investors' representations under this section in order to rely on certain securities registration exemptions under the Securities Act or any state securities laws.
3.Broker's, Finder's or Similar Fees. There are no brokerage commissions, finder's fees or commissions payable by the Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby based on any agreement, arrangement or understanding with the Investor or any action taken by the Investor as set forth on Schedule 4.3 hereof; provided, however, that the investors will pay consulting fees to certain individuals identified in Section 9(b) below.
4.Investment Intent. The Investor hereby confirms that the Securities to be acquired by the Investor will be acquired for investment for the Investor's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part hereof, and that the Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, the Investor further represents that the Investor does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement, or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer, or grant participation to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities. The Investor has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities.
5.Disclosure of Information. The Investor has been given access to full and complete information regarding the Company, including information filed with the SEC and made public on EDGAR, specifically the risk factors included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and has had an opportunity to discuss the Company's business, management, financial affairs, and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Notes and Warrants with the Company's management and has had an opportunity to inspect the Company's facilities, and the Investor has utilized such access to the Investor's satisfaction.
6.Speculative Securities. The Investor understands that in investment in the Securities is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. The Investor acknowledges that the Company may not have sufficient financial resources on the date of maturity to repay the Notes. The Investor believes the investment is suitable for Investor based on Investor's investment objectives and financial needs. The Investor has adequate means for providing for Investor's current financial needs and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity of investment with respect to the Securities. The Investor can bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time and can afford a complete loss of such investment.
7.Restricted Securities. The Investor understands that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Investor's representations as expressed in this Agreement. The Investor understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Investor must hold the Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Investor acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Securities for resale. The Investor further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements, including but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Investor's control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.
8.No Public Market. The Investor understands that a very limited public market exists for the Company's





Common Stock, but no market exists for any other securities issued by the Company, and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Securities. Accordingly, Investor understands that Investor must hold the Securities indefinitely and may never be able to resell them for their original purchase price, or at all, and thus may lose Investor's entire investment in the Company.
9.Legends. The Investor understands that the Securities and any securities issued in respect of or exchange for the Securities may bear one or both of the following legends:

(a)
THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR APPLICABLE BLUE SKY LAWS, AND IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS. THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE BLUE SKY LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

(b)
Any legend required by the blue sky laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the Securities represented by the certificate bearing such legend.
