sale of the Purchased Shares pursuant to this Agreement is intended to be exempt
from registration under the Securities Act, and from qualification under any
applicable state securities law by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act
and Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder, on the ground, among others, that no

Purchased Shares will be issued by the Company in connection with a transaction
that does not involve any public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act, the rules and regulations of the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission thereunder, or any comparable provision of applicable
securities laws or the rules and regulations of the regulatory authorities

(c) The Investor will acquire the Purchased Shares for investment for

(d) The Investor, during the course of this transaction and prior to
the purchase of the Purchased Shares, has had the opportunity to ask questions
of and receive answers from representatives of the Company concerning the terms
and conditions of the offering, and to obtain any additional information or
documents relative to the Company, its business and an investment, as the
Investor has deemed necessary. The Investor agrees and acknowledges, however,
that it has not been furnished any offering literature or prospectus concerning
the Company other than this Agreement and, in making its decision to acquire the
Purchased Shares hereunder, the Investor has relied solely upon this Agreement
and independent investigations made by the Investor. The Investor acknowledges
that no representations or warranties have been made to the Investor by the
Company, or any officer, employee, agent or affiliate of the Company, except as
contained in this Agreement.

(e) The Investor understands that the offering of Purchased Shares
pursuant to this Agreement is limited solely to "accredited investors," as that
term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act. The Investor
represents and warrants to the Company that the Investor is an "accredited
investor", as so defined, by virtue of the Investor meeting the criteria checked
by the Investor on the signature page hereto, and that the Investor's principal
place of business is as listed on the signature page hereto.

(f) The Investor has the capacity to protect its own interests in
connection with the purchase of the Purchased Shares. The purchase of the
Purchased Shares by the Investor is consistent with its general investment
objectives and the Investor understands that the purchase of the Purchased
Shares is a speculative investment that involves a high degree of risk. The
Investor can bear the economic risks of this investment and can afford a
complete loss of its investment in the Purchased Shares. The Investor
understands that there is no established market for the Company's capital stock
(including, without limitation, Common Stock) and there is no assurance that any
public market for such stock will develop. The Investor has no present need for
liquidity in connection with its purchase of the Purchased Shares.

(g) The Investor understands and acknowledges that the Purchased Shares
are "restricted securities" under United States securities laws and any
purported transfer of the Purchased Shares in violation of applicable law is
null and void. The Investor understands and acknowledges that the Company may,
at its discretion, refuse to register on its share transfer books any purported
transferee of the Purchased Shares in the event of an attempted transfer thereof
in violation of applicable law.

(h) If the Investor is a nonresident alien individual, corporation,
partnership, limited liability company, trust, estate or other entity, it is not
a U.S. person (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "INTERNAL REVENUE CODE"), and the United States Treasury
Regulations promulgated thereunder), and it acknowledges that the Company is
required, as a withholding agent, to withhold U.S. taxes and/or backup
withholding with respect to dividends and other distributions paid with respect
to the Purchased Shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code and Treasury Regulations, unless (x) an exemption from
such withholding is available, (y) the Investor provides to the Company in a
timely manner duly completed documentation evidencing qualification for such
exemption, and (z) the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the
Company may rely on such documentation for this purpose. The Investor has
provided to the Company a duly completed Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Form
W-8BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax
Withholding) and agrees to provide to the Company, in a timely manner, such
other duly completed documentation as the Company may request (including any
applicable alternative IRS Forms if Form W-8BEN is inapplicable to the Investor
and such duly completed updated IRS forms and other documentation as the Company
may request from time to time), all of which documentation must be in form and
substance satisfactory to the Company;


-4-

SECTION 4. INDEMNIFICATION. The Investor agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company and its affiliates, agents, representatives, employees,
directors, officers and stockholders from and against any and all loss,
liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to,
any and all expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or
defending against any litigation commenced or threatened or any claim
whatsoever) arising out of or based upon: (a) any false representation and
warranty of the Investor contained in this Agreement or any breach or failure by
the Investor to comply with any covenant and/or agreement made by the Investor
herein; or (b) any transfer of the Purchased Shares contrary to such
representations and warranties or covenants and agreements.

SECTION 5. TERMINATION. Either party may terminate this Agreement upon
material breach of this Agreement by the other party that has not been cured in
its entirety within fifteen (15) business days after written notice thereof has
been provided to the breaching party. The parties agree that a party's failure
to consummate the Installment Closings in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement constitute a material breach by such party of this
Agreement.

SECTION 6. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

(a) REMEDIES. In case any one or more of the covenants and/or
agreements set forth in this Agreement shall have been breached by any party
hereto, the party entitled to the benefit of such covenants or agreements may

action at law, including, but not limited to, an action for damages as a result
of any such breach and/or an action for specific performance of any such
covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement. The rights, powers and
remedies of the parties under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of
any other right, power or remedy which such parties may have under any other

or remedy of a party hereunder shall preclude any other or further assertion or
exercise thereof.

(f) SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any

of Nevada will govern all questions concerning the relative rights of the
Company and the holders of its securities (including, without limitation, the

with the internal laws of the State of Maryland, without giving effect to any
choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of

of any jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland. The parties each agree
that venue for any dispute arising under this Agreement shall be proper in any
state court located in Montgomery County in the State of Maryland or in the
United States District Court for the District of Maryland (if a basis for
federal jurisdiction exists) and each party hereby irrevocably waives any right
to object to the maintenance of a suit in such courts on the basis of improper
venue or of inconvenience of forum. Each party irrevocably consents to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any state court located in Montgomery County in
the State of Maryland or in the United States District Court for the District of
Maryland (if a basis for federal jurisdiction exists).

(h) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. The parties to this Agreement each hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to trial
by jury of any claim, demand, action or cause of action arising under this
Agreement, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract,
tort, equity, or otherwise. The parties to this Agreement each hereby
irrevocably agrees and consents that any such claim, demand, action or cause of
action shall be decided by court trial without a jury and that the parties to
this Agreement may file an original counterpart of a copy of this Agreement with
any court as written evidence of the consent of the parties hereto to the waiver
of their right to trial by jury.
