This Agreement is made with the Initial Holder in reliance upon the Initial Holder’s representation to the Company, which by the Initial Holder’s execution of this Agreement, the Initial Holder hereby confirms, that the Warrants to be acquired by the Initial Holder will be acquired solely for the purpose of investment for its own account and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The Holder (either alone or together with its advisors) has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Warrants or Warrant Units and is capable of bearing the economic risks of such investment. The Holder is not acquiring the Warrants as a result of any “general solicitation” or “advertising”, as those terms are defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

(b) Restrictions on Transfer and Exercise of the Warrants and Warrant Units. The Initial Holder acknowledges that neither the Warrants nor the Warrant Units have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act. The Holder understands that the Warrants and Warrant Units are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Holder must hold the Warrant or Warrant Units indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Holder acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Warrant or the Warrant Units for resale except as set forth in the Limited Liability Company Agreement (as defined in the Investment Agreement). The Holder further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Warrant or the Warrant Units, and on requirements relating to the Company that are outside of the Holder’s control, and that the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy. The Holder understands that no public market now exists for the Warrant or the Warrant Units, and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Warrant or the Warrant Units. The Holder is an “accredited investor”, as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

10. Registration of Transfer and Exchange. Subject to Section 5 of this Agreement:

(a) The Company shall keep, or cause to be kept, at its principal place of business or at such other location designated by the Company, a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Company may prescribe, the registrar and transfer agent (the “Securities Registrar”) shall register the holder of the Warrants and the transfers thereof as provided herein (“Securities Register”). The initial Securities Registrar, with respect to the Warrants, shall be the President of the Company, and thereafter, the Securities Registrar, with respect to the Warrants, may be removed and/or appointed as authorized by the Company.

(b) All Warrants shall be held and owned under the express condition that the provisions of this Section 11 are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Warrant Certificates and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies, notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

(c) Every new Warrant Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 11 shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Warrant Certificate shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Warrant Certificates duly issued hereunder.

12. Persons Deemed Holders.
