(y) (i) Seller is acquiring the Stock Portion for investment and not
with a view toward distribution. Seller acknowledges and understands
that it must bear the economic risk of an investment in the Stock
Portion being acquired pursuant hereto for an indefinite period of time
since such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act
and, therefore, cannot be sold unless they are either subsequently
registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such
registration is available and favorable opinions of counsel in form and
substance satisfactory to Purchaser to that effect are obtained.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this shall not preclude the resale of
the Stock Portion to the public subsequent to the Closing Date pursuant
to an effective registration statement as contemplated in Section 3.04
hereof. The certificates representing the Stock Portion (unless such
securities have been registered) shall bear on their face the following
legend:
The shares represented by this Certificate have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"), as amended.
These shares have been acquired for investment and not for
distribution or resale. They may not be mortgaged, pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise transferred without an effective
registration statement for such shares under the Securities Act or
an opinion of counsel for the Corporation that such registration is
not required.
(ii) Seller, taking into account the personnel and resources it can
practically bring to bear on the purchase of the Stock Portion
contemplated hereby, is knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in
making, and is qualified to make, decisions with respect to
Page 11

investments in Stock Portion presenting an investment decision like
that involved in the purchase of the Stock Portion.
(iii) Seller has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive
answers from representatives of Purchaser or persons acting on its
behalf concerning the terms and conditions of the proposed investment
in Purchaser, has had the opportunity to obtain additional information
necessary to verify the accuracy of information previously furnished
about Purchaser, and has requested, received, reviewed and considered

purchase the Stock Portion.
(iv) Seller is an "accredited investor" as such term is defined in
Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

any violation of, nor any notice regarding a pending site visit or investigation
pursuant to, the Occupational Health and Safety Act and the regulations issued

(bb) Neither Seller nor any of its officers, employees or agents, nor
any other person acting on behalf of any of them, has, directly or indirectly,

plural shall be deemed to include the singular. The agreements contained in this
Agreement shall not be construed as independent covenants. "Any" shall be deemed
to read "any and all" whenever applicable. "Anytime" shall be deemed to read
