The execution of this Agreement by its representative whose signature is set forth at the end hereof has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action.

Capitalization. There are sufficient authorized shares of common stock of the Issuing Company to cover the issuance of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement. There are restrictions on the transferability and sale of Shares imposed by or pursuant to federal securities law.

24.

Representations and Warranties By Executive. The Executive represents and warrants to the Company that, as of the date of this Agreement:

Executive has the right to enter into this Agreement, to grant the rights granted herein and to perform fully all of the obligations in this Agreement.

Executive’s entering into this Agreement with the Company and their performance of all of their obligations do not and will not conflict with or result in any breach or default under any other agreement to which they are subject.

Executive has the required skill, experience and qualifications to perform Services in connection with this Agreement, they shall perform the Services in connection with this Agreement in a professional and workmanlike manner in accordance with generally recognized industry standards for similar services and they shall devote sufficient resources to ensure that the Services in connection with this Agreement are performed in a timely and reliable manner.

Executive shall perform the services in connection with this Agreement in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations.

The Company will receive good and valid title to the products resulting from this Agreement, if any, free and clear of all encumbrances and liens of any kind.

If applicable, the periodic design documents and reports shall be the Executive’s original work (except for material in the public domain or provided by the Company) and, to the best of their knowledge, do not and will not violate or infringe upon the intellectual property right or any other right whatsoever of any person, firm, corporation or other entity.

Executive fully understands and agrees that Shares potentially being offered by the Issuing Company, might be offered at a price which might be arbitrarily determined without regard to any value of such Shares.

Executive fully understands that the Issuing Company has a limited net worth.

Executive acknowledges receipt of such information as they deem necessary or appropriate as a prudent and knowledgeable investor in evaluating the Shares issued as compensation.

Executive understands that there exist inherent risks in accepting the Shares as compensation, which risks include, but are not limited to, the lack of liquidity of the Shares, and the Issuing Company’s lack of history. Executive agrees to accept all risks associated with accepting the Shares as compensation.

Executive understands that the Issuing Company’s business is, by its nature, speculative; that Executive is aware that the financial resources of the Issuing Company are extremely limited and that it is very likely that the Issuing Company will require additional capital, and there is no assurance that such capital will be available if necessary; that Executive is familiar with the high degree of risk that is involved in the Issuing Company’s business, and that Executive is financially able and willing to accept the substantial risk involved in such investment, including the risk of loss of the entire amount invested.

Executive understands that the Shares have not been registered for sale under federal or state securities laws and that said securities are being issued to Executive pursuant to a claimed exemption from the registration requirements of such laws which is based upon the fact that said securities are not being offered to the public. Executive understands that in order to satisfy such requirement they must be acquiring the Shares with no view to making a public distribution of said securities and the representations and warranties contained in this Section are given with the intention that the Issuing Company may rely thereon for purposes of claiming such exemption; and that they understand that they must bear the economic risk of their investment in the securities for a substantial period of time, because the securities have not been registered under the federal or state securities laws, and cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under such laws, or unless an exemption from such registration is available.

Executive represents that they are acquiring the securities for their own account and for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Executive agrees that the Shares will not be offered for sale, sold or otherwise transferred for value and that no transfer thereof will be made by the Executive unless (a) a registration statement with respect thereto has become effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (b) there is presented to the Issuing Company an opinion of counsel for Executive reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Company that such registration is not required. Executive further agrees that the securities will not be offered for sale, sold or otherwise transferred unless, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Issuing Company, such sale or disposition does not and will not violate any provisions of any federal or state securities law or regulation.

25.

Acknowledgement of Binding Agreement. Executive acknowledges that this is a binding legal agreement and that Executive has read each page of this Agreement prior to its execution and that Executive fully understands its meaning and effect. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive has had the opportunity to have this Agreement reviewed by Executive’s attorney or has expressly elected to forego such review, and that by signing this Agreement, Executive intends to be legally bound by all its terms.
