ABSOLUTE. THERMACELL is purchasing for its own account for the purpose of
investment and not with a view for sale in connection with any distribution
thereof. THERMACELL has been advised prior to investing that the Absolute
interests may not be resold without an exemption from registration. THERMACELL's
representatives have the knowledge and experience to evaluate the merits and
risks of the purchase of the ABSOLUTE membership interests. THERMACELL
acknowledges that Thomas F. Duszynski and Don Huggins are the representatives of
THERMACELL. Neither of the THERMACELL representatives has any material

relationship to Absolute. Thermacell has the financial ability to bear the
economic risk of holding the ABSOLUTE membership interests for an indefinite
period of time and to suffer the complete loss of its investment in the ABSOLUTE
membership interests. Thermacell sought out Absolute, solicited the acquisition
of the ABSOLUTE membership interests and proposed the merger transaction to the
holders of Absolute membership interests.

IX. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ABSOLUTE MEMBERS

Each ABSOLUTE Member hereby represents and warrants, with respect to
only such ABSOLUTE Member, to THERMACELL and Merger Sub as follows:

9.1. Authority. Each ABSOLUTE Member (other than a natural person) has
full corporate, partnership or trust (as the case may be) authority to execute,
deliver and perform this Agreement and each other agreement, document or
instrument required to be delivered by it hereby or in connection herewith
(collectively, the "ABSOLUTE Member Documents"). Each ABSOLUTE Member (including
a trustee of a trust that is an ABSOLUTE Member) that is a natural person has
the right, capacity and all requisite authority to execute, deliver and perform
the ABSOLUTE Member Documents. The execution, delivery and performance by each
ABSOLUTE Member (other than a natural person or a trust) of the ABSOLUTE Member
Documents has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or partnership (as
the case may be) action of such ABSOLUTE Member. This Agreement has been, and
each other ABSOLUTE Member Documents when executed and delivered in accordance
with this Agreement will be, duly executed and delivered by each ABSOLUTE
Member. This Agreement constitutes, and each of the other ABSOLUTE Member
Documents when executed and delivered in accordance with this Agreement will
constitute, a valid and binding obligation of each ABSOLUTE Member, enforceable
against such ABSOLUTE Member in accordance with its terms.

9.2. Absence of Conflict. The execution, delivery or performance of the
ABSOLUTE Member Documents will not (a) violate any provision of the certificate
or articles of incorporation, bylaws, certificate of partnership, partnership
agreement, declaration of trust or other organizational document of each
ABSOLUTE Member (other than a natural person) or (b) violate any statute or law
or any judgment, decree, order, regulation or rule of any court or other
governmental body applicable to each ABSOLUTE Member.

9.3. Investment Representations.

a. The Merger Stock to be received by each ABSOLUTE Member
pursuant to this Agreement will be held by such ABSOLUTE Member for its/his/her
own account for the purpose of investment and not with a present view for sale
in connection with any distribution thereof.

b. Each ABSOLUTE Member's financial position is such that
it/he/she can afford to bear the economic risk of holding the Merger Stock
it/he/she receives pursuant to this Agreement for an indefinite period of time,
and each ABSOLUTE Member can afford to suffer the complete loss of its/his/her
investment in such Merger Stock.

c. Each ABSOLUTE Member has been provided an opportunity to
ask questions of, and has received answers satisfactory to such ABSOLUTE Member
from, THERMACELL and its representatives regarding the business and affairs of
THERMACELL and such other information as it/he/she desired in order to evaluate
an investment in the Merger Stock.

d. Each ABSOLUTE Member understands that the Merger Stock
comprising the merger consideration to be received by it/him/her pursuant to
this Agreement has not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable
state securities laws in reliance upon specific exemptions from registration
thereunder. Each ABSOLUTE Member agrees that the Merger Stock to be received by
it/him/her pursuant to this Agreement may not be sold, offered for sale,
exchanged, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of except pursuant to a
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 or pursuant to an
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and
in compliance with state securities laws, and the certificates for the Merger
Stock will bear a legend to such effect. Upon registration, if any, there can be
no assurance that a public market for the Merger Stock shares will exist. If
shares of the Merger Stock are converted into shares of THERMACELL common stock,
there likewise can be no assurance that a public market for such common shares
will exist or that trading of such common shares can commence, or if commenced
can be maintained, on the OTC:BB. As a result, a holder of THERMACELL tradable
securities may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations
as to the price of, the shares. In addition, THERMACELL securities may be
subject to "penny stock" rules that impose sales practice and market making
requirements on broker-dealers who sell and/or make a market in such securities.
This could affect the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell and/or
make a market in THERMACELL securities and the ability of holders of THERMACELL
securities to sell their stock in the secondary market.

9.4 Tax Matters. No ABSOLUTE Member is a foreign person subject
to withholding under Section 1445 of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder.
