2.7 The execution and delivery of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default under (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to a loss of a material benefit under any provision of any mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement or instrument, permit, concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or its properties or assets.

3.8 Use of Purchase Price. The Subscriber understands, acknowledges and agrees that management of the Company shall have sole and absolute discretion concerning the use of the Purchase Price as well as the timing of its expenditures.

3.9 Restricted Securities. The Subscriber understands that the Shares have not been, although they may be, 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 Subscriber’s representations as expressed herein. The Subscriber understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Subscriber must hold the Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the SEC and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Subscriber acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Shares. The Subscriber 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 Shares, and on requirements relating to the Company that are outside of the Subscriber’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

3.10 No General Solicitation.

3.16 The Subscriber understands that the purchase of the Shares is a highly speculative investment and that an investment in the Shares is suitable only for sophisticated investors and requires the financial ability and willingness to accept the possibility of the loss of all or substantially all of such investment as well as the risks and lack of liquidity inherent in an investment in the Company;

3.17 Confidential Information. The Subscriber agrees that such Subscriber and its employees, agents and representatives will keep confidential and will not disclose, divulge or use (other than for purposes of monitoring its investment in the Company) any confidential information which such Subscriber may obtain from the Company pursuant to financial statements, reports and other materials submitted by the Company to such Subscriber pursuant to this Agreement, unless such information is (i) known to the public through no fault of such Subscriber or his or its employees or representatives; (ii) becomes part of the public domain other than by a breach of this Agreement; (iii) becomes known by the action of a third party not in breach of a duty of confidence; or (iv) is required to be disclosed to a third party pursuant to any applicable law, government resolution, or decision of any court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that a Subscriber may disclose such information (i) to its attorneys, accountants and other professionals in connection with their representation of such Subscriber in connection with such Subscriber’s investment in the Company, (ii) to any prospective permitted transferee of the Securities, or (iii) to any general partner or affiliate of such Subscriber, so long as the prospective transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section.

(ii) At the time of the origination of contact concerning this Agreement and the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Subscriber was outside of the United States.

(ix) Neither the Subscriber nor any person acting on his or her behalf has undertaken or carried out any activity for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States, its territories or possessions, for any of the Shares. The Subscriber agrees not to cause any advertisement of the Shares to be published in any newspaper or periodical or posted in any public place and not to issue any circular relating to the Shares, except such advertisements that include the statements required by Regulation S under the Securities Act, and only offshore and not in the U.S. or its territories, and only in compliance with any local applicable securities laws.

(x) The Subscriber has carefully reviewed and completed the investor questionnaire annexed hereto as Exhibit A.

The parties hereto agree to act honestly and in good faith in the performance of their respective obligations hereunder.

5.15 Waivers. No waiver by any party of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any other provisions, condition or requirement hereof and thereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder and thereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it thereafter.

5.16 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by a party hereto without the prior written consent of the Company or the Subscriber, as applicable, provided, however, that, subject to federal and state securities laws and as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Subscriber may assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder in whole or in part (i) to a third party acquiring all or substantially all of its Shares in a private transaction or (ii) to an affiliate, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Company or the other subscribers participated in this Offering, after notice duly given by such Subscriber to the Company provided, that no such assignment or obligation shall affect the obligations of such Subscriber hereunder and that such assignee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred securities, by the provisions hereof that apply to the Subscriber. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties.
