3. Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. To induce the Company to enter into this Agreement and sell the Shares to Purchaser, and understanding that the Company will rely thereon. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants as follows:

3.1 Purchased for Own Account. Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for invest-ment, for Purchaser’s own account and not with a view to any sale or distribution or with any intention of disposing of the same or any interest therein. By executing this Agreement, the Purchaser further represents that the Purchaser does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Shares. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares.

3.2 Restricted Securities. Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), qualified under the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, as amended, (the “Law”) or qualified or registered under any other state securities laws or statutes, and that they are being sold pursuant to exemptions from registration and qualification contained in the Act and the Law based in part upon the representations of Purchaser contained herein. Purchaser understands that the Shares must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Act and registered or qualified under the Law or applicable state securities laws or unless an exemption from such registration and qualification is applicable to any subsequent transfer. Purchaser will not sell or transfer the Shares without registration under the Act and registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, unless exempt therefrom.
