The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser as follows:

Section 2.1 Authority and Approvals. The Seller has the power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, and all action necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transaction has been duly and validly taken. The Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Seller. Assuming this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Purchaser, this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms.

Section 2.2 The Shares. The Seller is the record and beneficial owner of the Shares. Except for this Agreement, there is no agreement, arrangement or understanding with any other Person regarding the sale or transfer of any Shares, and there exist no liens, claims, options, proxies, voting agreements, charges or encumbrances of any kind affecting the Shares, other than any restrictions on transfer that may be imposed by Law. Upon transfer of the Shares to the Purchaser at the Closing against payment of the Purchase Price, the Purchaser will acquire ownership of the Shares, free and clear of all liens, claims, options, proxies, voting agreements, charges or encumbrances of any kind affecting the Shares, other than any restrictions on transfer that may be imposed by Law.

Section 2.3 Investment Purpose; Affiliate Status; Holding Period. The Seller represents that it (a) acquired the Shares for investment purposes only and not with a view toward distribution or resale in violation of any applicable securities Laws, (b) is selling the Shares, as principal, for its own account and not as a broker or agent for another party, (c) is not an “affiliate” of the Company as defined in Rule 144(a)(i) under the Securities Act, (d) has beneficially owned the shares for a least one (1) year, and (e) acquired and fully paid for the Shares at least one (1) year ago calculated in accordance with Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act.

Section 2.4 No General Solicitation; etc. The Seller acknowledges that (a) neither the Purchaser nor any of its Representatives has either directly or indirectly, including through a broker or finder engaged in any general solicitation relating to the purchase of the Shares; and (b) the Purchase Price was determined through private arm’s length negotiations between the Purchaser and the Seller, and neither the Purchaser nor the Seller is under any obligation or compulsion to enter into this Agreement.

Section 2.5 Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will not (i) violate, conflict with, or result in the breach, acceleration, default or termination of, or otherwise give any other contracting party the right to terminate, accelerate, modify or cancel any of the terms, provisions, or conditions of the organizational documents of the Seller or any material agreements or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it or its assets may be bound, or (ii) constitute a violation of any material applicable Law.

Section 2.6 Broker’s Fees. The Seller has no liability or obligation to pay any fees or commissions to any broker, finder or agent with respect to the Transaction.

Section 2.8 Excluded Information.

(a) The Seller acknowledges that the Purchaser is an existing stockholder of the Company and that the Purchaser may have access to and may possess nonpublic information regarding the Company not known to the other Party (the “Excluded Information”).

Such Excluded Information may include information received (A) by the Purchaser or its Representatives in their capacities as directors, stockholders or affiliates of the Company, (B) from the Company on a confidential basis, or (C) on a privileged basis from the attorneys, financial advisers or other

Representatives of the Company. Although such Excluded Information may be indicative of a value of the Shares that is substantially different than the Purchase Price, the Seller is experienced, sophisticated and knowledgeable in trading securities of public and private companies and understands the disadvantages to which the Seller may be subject on account of the disparity of information as between the Purchaser and the Seller, and the Seller has nonetheless deemed it appropriate to engage in the sale of the Shares hereunder. In respect of this Section 2.8, the Seller further represents, warrants and acknowledges that it: (a) is a sophisticated seller with respect to its Shares, (b) has adequate information concerning its Shares, (c) has conducted, to the extent it deemed necessary, an independent investigation of such matters as, in its judgment, is necessary for it to make an informed investment decision with respect to the sale of its Shares to the Purchaser and with respect to the Purchaser as the buyer of its Shares, and (d) has not relied upon the Purchaser for any investigation into, assessment of, or evaluation with respect to the sale of its Shares to the Purchaser or with respect to the Purchaser as the purchaser of the Shares.

(b) The Seller hereby:

(1) agrees that neither the Purchaser nor its directors, officers, partners, stockholders, members, investors, employees, attorneys, agents or Representatives shall have any liability to the Seller or its affiliates with respect to the existence, possession or non-disclosure of any Excluded Information, whether arising directly or indirectly, primarily or secondarily, by contract or operation of law or otherwise, including as a matter of contribution, indemnification, set-off, rescission, or reimbursement;

(2) waives any right, claim or cause of action, at law or in equity, arising from or relating to, directly or indirectly, the existence, possession or non-disclosure of any Excluded Information, including without limitation pursuant to Sections 10(b) and 20A of the Exchange Act, or the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act, and relinquishes all rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to a seller of securities with respect to the Shares to the maximum extent permitted by law, as well as all rights to participate in any claim, action or remedy others may now or hereafter have with respect to the foregoing; and

(3) with respect to the disposition and sale of the Shares, releases and discharges the Purchaser and its directors, officers, partners, stockholders, members, investors, employees, attorneys, agents or Representatives and all successors and assigns thereto (each a “Purchaser Released Party”) of and from any and all suits, demands, obligations, liabilities, claims and causes of action, contingent or otherwise, of every kind and nature, at law and in equity, which the Seller and/or its affiliates, successors or assigns may have against any Purchaser Released Party, to the extent arising from or in connection with the existence, possession or non-disclosure of any Excluded Information whether asserted, unasserted, absolute, contingent, known or unknown.

(c) The Seller hereby represents to each Purchaser Released Party that (i) it has not assigned any claim or possible claim against the Purchaser Released Parties, (ii) it fully intends to release all claims against the Purchaser Released Parties as set forth above, and (iii) it has been advised by, and has consulted with, counsel with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and has been fully apprised of the consequences of the waivers and releases set forth in this Section 2.8.

Assuming this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Seller, this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms.

Section 3.2 Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will not (i) violate, conflict with, or result in the breach, acceleration, default or termination of, or otherwise give any other contracting party the right to terminate, accelerate, modify or cancel any of the terms, provisions, or conditions of the organizational documents of the Purchaser or any material agreements or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it or its assets may be bound, or (ii) constitute a violation of any material applicable Law.

Section 3.3 Investment Experience. Purchaser is a sophisticated investor and has (a) by reason of its business and financial experience, the capacity to protect its own interests in connection with the purchase of the Shares hereunder, (b) such knowledge and experience in financial, tax and business matters to enable Purchaser to evaluate the merits and risks associated with the purchase of the Shares hereunder and to make an informed investment decision with respect thereto, (c) adequate information concerning the Shares, (d) conducted, to the extent it deemed necessary, an independent investigation of such matters as, in its judgment, is necessary for it to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Shares and the purchase of the Shares hereunder, and (e) not relied upon the Seller for any investigation into, assessment of, or evaluation with respect to the Shares and/or the purchase of the Shares hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Purchaser has reviewed with its own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of its investment in the Shares and the Transaction. The Purchaser is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Seller or any of its agents regarding the tax consequences of the Transaction.

Section 3.7 Blue Sky Laws; Future Transfer. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or qualified under any state security laws (“Blue Sky Laws”) and may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred by the Purchaser without compliance with the registration provisions of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares are being transferred hereby under an exemption or exemptions from the registration and qualification requirements of the Securities Act and Blue Sky Laws which impose certain restrictions on the Purchaser’s ability to transfer the Shares. The Purchaser is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including without limitation the applicable holding periods thereunder.

Such Excluded Information may include information received (A) by the Seller or its Representatives in their capacities as directors, officers, stockholders or affiliates of the Company, (B) from the Company on a confidential basis, or (C) on a privileged basis from the attorneys, financial advisers or other Representatives of the Company.

(b) The Purchaser hereby:

(1) agrees that neither the Seller nor its directors, officers, partners, stockholders, members, investors, employees, attorneys, agents or Representatives shall have any liability to the Purchaser or its affiliates with respect to the existence, possession or non-disclosure of any Excluded Information, whether arising directly or indirectly, primarily or secondarily, by contract or operation of law or otherwise, including as a matter of contribution, indemnification, set-off, rescission, or reimbursement;

(3) with respect to the disposition and sale of the Shares, releases and discharges the Seller and its directors, officers, partners, stockholders, members, investors, employees, attorneys, agents or Representatives and all successors and assigns thereto (each a “Seller Released Party”) of and from any and all suits, demands, obligations, liabilities, claims and causes of action, contingent or otherwise, of every kind and nature, at law and in equity, which the Purchaser and/or its affiliates, successors or assigns may have against any Seller Released Party, to the extent arising from or in connection with the existence, possession or non-disclosure of any Excluded Information whether asserted, unasserted, absolute, contingent, known or unknown.

(c) The Purchaser hereby represents to each Seller Released Party that (i) it has not assigned any claim or possible claim against the Seller Released Parties, (ii) it fully intends to release all claims against the Seller Released Parties as set forth above, and (iii) it has been advised by, and has consulted with, counsel with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and has been fully apprised of the consequences of the waivers and releases set forth in this Section 3.9.
