4.1           Organization; Validity; Enforcements.  (a) The Purchaser is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Texas and has all requisite limited liability company power and authority to own and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, (b) the Purchaser has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in this Agreement and the Investor’s Rights Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, (c) all limited liability company action on the part of the Purchaser and its officers and members necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Investor’s Rights Agreement and the performance of all obligations of the Purchaser hereunder and thereunder has been taken or will be taken prior to the Initial Closing,  (d) the making and performance of this Agreement and the Investor’s Rights Agreement by the Purchaser and the consummation of the transactions herein and therein contemplated will not violate or conflict with, result in the breach or violation of, or constitute, either by itself or upon notice or the passage of time or both, a default under any material agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, lease, franchise, license, indenture, permit or other instrument to which the Purchaser is a party, or any statute or any authorization, judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation of any court or any regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental agency or body applicable to the Purchaser, (e) no consent, approval, authorization or other order of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental agency or body is required on the part of the Purchaser for the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Investor’s Rights Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Investor’s Rights Agreement, (f) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Investor’s Rights Agreement, this Agreement and the Investor’s Rights Agreement shall constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, and (iii) to the extent the indemnification and contribution provisions contained in the Investor’s Rights Agreement and in Section 9.3 hereof may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws, and (g) there is not in effect any order enjoining or restraining the Purchaser from entering into or engaging in any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Investor’s Rights Agreement.
 
4.2           Purchase Entirely for Own Account.  The Securities are being acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof.
 
 
11

 
 
4.3           Information. The Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company; provided, however, that neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by the Purchaser or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect the Purchaser’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in Section 3.  The Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Securities. The Purchaser understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax liabilities that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
 
4.4           Investment Experience.  The Purchaser understands that the purchase of the Securities involves substantial risk.  The Purchaser is an investor in securities of companies in the developmental stage and acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of its investment and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Securities.  The Purchaser has undertaken an independent analysis of the merits and the risks of an investment in the Securities, based on the Purchaser’s own financial circumstances.  Purchaser also represents it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Securities.
 
4.5           No General Solicitation.  The Purchaser acknowledges that it has not seen, received, been presented with, or been solicited by any leaflet, public promotional meeting, newspaper or magazine article or advertisement, radio or television advertisement, or any other form of advertising or general solicitation with respect to the Securities.
 
4.6           Accredited Purchaser.  The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect and Purchaser has executed the Certificate of Accredited Investor Status, attached hereto as Exhibit D.
 
4.7           Restricted Securities.  The Purchaser understands that the Securities are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.  In this connection, the Purchaser represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby.  The Purchaser will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) any of the Securities, nor will the Purchaser engage in any short sale that results in a disposition of any of the Securities by the Purchaser, except in compliance with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and any applicable state securities law.
 
4.8           Consultation With Own Attorney.  The Purchaser has been advised to consult with its own attorney or attorneys regarding all legal matters concerning an investment in the Company and the tax consequences of purchasing the Securities, and has done so, to the extent Purchaser considers necessary.
 
 
12

 
 
4.9            Tax Consequences.  The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax consequences of investing in the Company will depend on particular circumstances, and neither the Company, the Company’s officers, any other investors, nor the partners, shareholders, members, managers, agents, officers, directors, employees, affiliates or consultants of any of them, will be responsible or liable for the tax consequences to Purchaser of an investment in the Company.  The Purchaser will look solely to and rely upon its own advisers with respect to the tax consequences of this investment.
 
4.10           Information Provided by Purchaser.  All information which the Purchaser has provided to the Company concerning the Purchaser, its financial position and its knowledge of financial and business matters, and any information found in the Certificate of Accredited Investor Status, is truthful, accurate, correct, and complete as of the date set forth herein or therein.
 
4.11           Legends.  The Purchaser understands that, at all times until such time as (a) a registration statement registering the Shares, the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares has been declared effective or (b) the Conversion Shares, the Shares and Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Conversion Shares, the Shares and the Warrant Shares will bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form:
 
“NEITHER THESE SECURITIES NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE CONVERTIBLE OR EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.  THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT.”
 
4.12           Reliance on Exemptions.  The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire the Securities.
 
4.13           No Government Review.  The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.

17

 
 
10.3           Purchaser will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its executive officers, including such officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, but only if such settlement is effected with the prior written consent of the Purchaser) insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser herein; and will reimburse the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person of the Company for any legal and other expense reasonably incurred by the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the Purchaser’s liability under this Section 9.3 shall not exceed the amount of net proceeds (excluding sales commissions and other selling expenses) received by the Purchaser on the sale of the Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.
 
10.4           Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9.3 of notice of the threat or commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 9.3 promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 9.3 to the extent it is not prejudiced as a result of such failure.  In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded, based on an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying party, that there may be a conflict of interest between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties.  Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 9.3 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (a) the indemnified party shall have employed such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, reasonably satisfactory to such indemnifying party, representing all of the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (b) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.  The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action without its written consent, provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
 
 
18

 
 
10.5           If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10.5 is required by its terms but is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Sections 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 in respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein (a) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Purchaser from the placement of the Securities contemplated by this Agreement or (b) if the allocation provided by clause (a) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (b) above but the relative fault of the Company and the Purchaser in connection with the statements or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties in this Agreement that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the amount paid by the Purchaser to the Company pursuant to this Agreement for the Securities purchased by the Purchaser that were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement bears to the difference (the “Difference”) between the amount the Purchaser paid for the Securities that were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement and the amount received by the Purchaser from such sale.  The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Purchaser on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or the inaccurate or the alleged inaccurate representation and/or warranty relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Purchaser and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.4, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim.  The provisions set forth in Section 10.4 with respect to the notice of the threat or commencement of any threat or action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 10.5; provided, however, that no additional notice shall be required with respect to any threat or action for which notice has been given under Section 10.4 purposes of indemnification.  The Company and the Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9.3 were determined solely by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.3, the Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the Difference exceeds the amount of any damages that the Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
