Representations and Warranties of the Company.

Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser.  


Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller and Company as follows:


(a)

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Purchaser.  This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Purchaser enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as (i) the enforceability hereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditor's rights generally and (ii) the availability of equitable remedies may be limited by equitable principles of general applicability.


(b)

Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance by such Purchaser with any of the provisions hereof will: violate, or conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the termination of, or accelerate the performance required by, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of such Purchaser under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any material note, bond, indenture, mortgage, deed or trust, license, lease, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which such Purchaser is a party or by which such Purchaser or any of such Purchaser’s properties or assets may be bound or affected, except for such violations, conflicts, breaches or defaults as do not have, in the aggregate, any material adverse effect; or violate any material order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to such Purchaser or to any of their properties or assets, except for such violations which do not have, in the aggregate, any material adverse effect.

(vi)

Neither Purchaser nor any of its officers or directors has been found by a court in a civil action or by the SEC to have violated any federal or state securities law, which judgment in such civil action or finding has not been subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated.


In respect of Purchaser and principals of Purchaser that are residents of countries other than the United States, the references above to courts, federal or state agencies shall be deemed to refer to the comparable tribunal or entity in the country in which such individuals reside.
