A minimum purchase of 5,000 Units per investor is required. No fractional Units will be sold in the Offering . The Placement Agent acknowledges that the Company may limit its acceptance of subscriptions in any manner it deems prudent in order to provide for the timely use of subscriber funds and may reject any subscription for any reason, and the Placement Agent agrees that any such rejection of a subscription obtained by the Placement Agent or by the Participating Agents shall be deemed not to be a sale made by the Placement Agent or by the Participating Agents.

With respect to federal securities laws, the Company will rely on one or more exemptions from registration for sales to Accredited Investors, including, without limitation, exemptions from registration provided by Sections 3(b), 4(2) and/or 4(6) of the Securities Act, Regulation S, and Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated as part of the rules and regulations under the Securities Act (the "Rules and Regulations"). With respect to the State Acts, the Company will not be subject to them pursuant to preemption based on Section 18 of the Securities Act or will rely upon limited offering exemptions of certain states approved by the Company. The Company shall use its best efforts to qualify or register the Units for sale, or exempt the Units from qualification or registration, under the State Acts as requested by the Placement Agent, and the Company shall continue such qualifications in effect for so long as may be necessary to complete the Offering. The Company or its counsel shall provide Placement Agent with all applications, forms and documents filed in each jurisdiction where the Units are to be qualified or registered or qualified or offered in an exempt transaction under the State Acts.

The Company will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that they may wish, to assume the defense thereof subject to the provisions herein stated, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Agent Indemnified Person.
