In this regard, Subscriber understands and acknowledges that the Company has not represented or warranted that the Company has never been an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1)(i).

Tax Consequences. The Subscriber acknowledges that the tax consequences of investing in the Company will depend on particular circumstances, and neither the Company, the Company’s officers, any other investors, nor the partners, shareholders, members, managers, agents, officers, directors, employees, affiliates or consultants of any of them, will be responsible or liable for the tax consequences to the Subscriber of an investment in the Company.
