3.             Representations and Warranties of Employee.  Employee represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

(a)           This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by Employee and, assuming it has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Employee, in accordance with its terms.

 

(b)           Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Employee nor the performance by Employee of his or her obligations hereunder will: (i) violate any statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation, applicable to Employee or any of the properties or assets of Employee; or (ii) violate, breach, be in conflict with or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or permit the termination of any provision of, or result in the termination of, the acceleration of the maturity of, or the acceleration of the performance of any obligation of Employee under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any properties, assets or business of Employee under, any material contract or any order, judgment or decree to which Employee is a party or by which her or she or any of his or her assets or properties is bound or encumbered except for such violations, breaches, conflicts, defaults or other occurrences which, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on his or her obligation to perform his or her covenants under this Agreement.

 

(c)           Accredited Investor.  Employee is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

(d)           Investment Intent.  The Securities are being acquired for the Employee’s own account for investment purposes only, not as a nominee or agent and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and Employee has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same.  By executing this Agreement, Employee further represents that Employee does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or third person with respect to any of the Securities.

 

(e)           Restrictions on Transfer.  Employee understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any state securities law, and may not be, directly or indirectly, sold, transferred, offered for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act and registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws or the availability of an exemption therefrom.

 

4.             Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The Company represents and warrants to Employee as follows:

where the failure to be or have any of the foregoing would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.  The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other entity to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of its properties owned or held under lease or the nature of their activities makes such qualification necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified or in good standing as would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

(i)            The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and perform its obligations under this Agreement.  The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and all other necessary corporate action on the part of the Company have been duly authorized by its board of directors, and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company is necessary to authorize this Agreement.  This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming that it has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Employee, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

 

(ii)           The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the New Option have been duly reserved for issuance upon exercise of the New Option and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the New Option, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, with no personal liability resulting solely from the ownership of such shares, and will be free and clear of all liens, charges, restrictions, claims and in encumbrances imposed by or through the Company.

 

(c)           No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.  Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company nor the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder will: (i) conflict with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; (ii) violate any statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation, applicable to the Company or any of the properties or assets of the Company; or (iii) violate, breach, be in conflict with or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or permit the termination of any provision of, or result in the termination of, the acceleration of the maturity of, or the acceleration of the performance of any obligation of the Company, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any properties, assets or business of the Company under, any material contract or any order, judgment or decree to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its assets or properties is bound or encumbered except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such violations, breaches, conflicts, defaults or other occurrences which, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on its obligation to perform its covenants under this Agreement.
