and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, (ii) has and
at all times relevant hereto has had all requisite power and authority to
conduct its business as now conducted and as presently contemplated, to
execute and deliver this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to
which it is a party and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby
and thereby, (iii) is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing
in each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned or
leased by it or in which the transaction of its business makes such

not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to perform
its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to
which it is a party.
(b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party (i)
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of

contractual restriction binding on or otherwise affecting the Company or
any of its properties, (iii) do not and will not result in or require the
creation of any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance upon

any suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any
permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company's
operations or any of its properties.
3
(c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to
or filing with, any governmental authority or other regulatory body, which
has not been received or made, is required in connection with the due
execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement or the
other Transaction Documents to which it is a party.
(d) Each of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to
which the Company is a party is a legal, valid and binding obligation of
the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as in effect on the

reports or documents, including any financial statements or schedules
included or incorporated by reference therein, contained, when filed, any

Company which has no assets and which does not conduct any business or
operations.
4
(i) With respect to the UCC-1 Financing Statements identified on the
list attached to Schedule 5(i) hereof, all indebtedness pursuant to which
such financing statements were filed has been paid or otherwise
extinguished in full and no further obligations remain outstanding which
would permit any person named as the secured party in any such financing
statement to exercise any right against any of the properties or assets of
the Company.
(j) The representations and warranties of the Company contained in
each of the Transaction Documents are true and correct.
6. Covenants of the Company.
From the date hereof and for so long as any Notes shall remain

(a) Representations and Warranties of the Investors. Each Investor,
severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company that:
(b) It has full power and authority and has taken all required action
necessary to permit it to execute and deliver and to carry out the terms of
this Agreement and all other documents or instruments required hereby.
8
(c) This Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of it enforceable
in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforcement of remedies, to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization and similar
laws affecting creditors' rights generally and to general equitable
principles.
(d) It acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to discuss the
business, affairs and current prospects of the Company with the Company's
officers. It further acknowledges having had access to information about
the Company that it has requested or considers necessary for purposes of
purchasing the Note(s). The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify
the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the right of the Investors
to rely thereon.
(e) It is its present intention to acquire the Note(s) purchased by
it, and any securities of the Company issuable upon any conversion of such
Note(s) (the "Conversion Securities"), for its own account and that such
Note(s) and such Conversion Securities are being or will be acquired by it
for the purpose of investment and not with a view to distribution. It
agrees that it will not sell or transfer any Note or Conversion Security
without registration under applicable federal and state securities laws, or
the availability of exemptions therefrom. It agrees that each Note, and
each certificate or other instrument representing Conversion Securities,
will bear a restrictive legend stating that the Note, or such Conversion
Securities, has not been registered under applicable federal and state
securities laws and referring to restrictions on its transferability and
sale, and any other legend required by applicable law or agreement.
(e) It is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). It has the
ability to bear the economic risks of its investment pursuant to this
Agreement. It understands that an investment in the Company involves
substantial risks and that the purchase of the Note(s) will be a highly
speculative investment. It is able, without impairing its financial
condition, to hold the Note(s) and the Conversion Securities for an
indefinite period and to suffer a complete loss of its investment. If such
Investor is not a resident of the United States, such investor also
represents and warrants that such Investor satisfies analogous "accredited
investor" requirements under the jurisdiction of its residence or otherwise
meets requirements that would permit the sale of Notes to such Investor
without qualification or registration in the jurisdiction in which such
Investor resides. Each such Investor also agrees to execute and deliver
such certificates or other evidence that the Company may request in
connection with the foregoing representation.
(f) It understands that the Note(s) and Conversion Securities may not
be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of without registration under
the Act or an exemption therefrom, and that, in the absence of an effective
registration statement covering the Note(s) or Conversion Securities, as
applicable, or an available exemption from registration under the Act, the
Note(s) or Conversion Securities must be held indefinitely.
8. Amendments, Waivers, Etc. This Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents may be amended and the provisions hereof and thereof may be waived
only by an instrument signed in writing by the Company and by Investors holding
at least a majority of the outstanding principal balance of the issued and
outstanding Notes.
9
9. Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless and defend all Indemnified Persons (as hereinafter defined) from and
against any and all Indemnified Claims (as hereinafter defined). THE FOREGOING
INDEMNIFICATION SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH INDEMNIFIED CLAIMS ARE IN ANY
WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM OR THEORY OF
STRICT LIABILITY, OR ARE CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR
OMISSION OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON. Upon notification and demand, the Company
agrees to provide defense of any Indemnified Claim and to pay all reasonable
costs and expenses of counsel selected by any Indemnified Person in respect
thereof. Any Indemnified Person against whom any Indemnified Claim may be
asserted may, upon the prior written consent of the Company, not to be
unreasonably withheld, settle or compromise any such Indemnified Claim and the
obligations of such Indemnified Person, if any, pursuant to any such settlement
or compromise shall be deemed included within the Indemnified Claims. Except as
specifically provided in this section, the Company waives all notices from any
Indemnified Person. The provisions of this Section 9 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement. As used in this Section 9, "Affiliate" means,
with respect to any person or entity, any other person or entity that directly
or indirectly controls, or is controlled by or under common control with, such
person or entity; "Indemnified Claims" means any and all claims, demands,
actions, causes of action, judgments, liabilities, damages and consequential
damages, penalties, fines, costs, fees, expenses and disbursements (including,
without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other
professional consultants and experts in connection with any investigation or
defense) of every kind, known or unknown, existing or hereafter arising,
foreseeable or unforeseeable, which may be imposed upon, threatened or asserted
against or incurred or paid by any Indemnified Person at any time and from time
to time, because of, resulting from, in connection with or arising out of any
transaction, act, omission, event or circumstance in any way connected with the
Transaction Documents (including but not limited to enforcement of an Investor's
rights thereunder or the defense of an Investor's actions thereunder), excluding
with respect to any Indemnified Persons, any of the foregoing resulting from
such Indemnified Person's gross negligence, breach of the Transaction Documents,
violation of applicable law or willful misconduct; and "Indemnified Persons"
means each Investor and each of their respective officers, directors, employees
and Affiliates.

in accordance with, the law of the State of Texas, except as required by
