The SEC Documents have complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed with the Commission, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As of their respective dates, to the best of Royaltech’s knowledge during those respective dates, the financial statements of Royaltech included in the SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto.

G. Litigation. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, (i) there is no action, suit, proceeding, or investigation pending or currently threatened against Royaltech, and (ii) in Royaltech’s reasonable judgment, none of such disclosures are likely to question the validity of this Agreement, or the right of Royaltech to enter into such agreements, or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or which might result, either individually or in the aggregate, in any material adverse change in the assets, condition, affairs, or property of Royaltech, financially or otherwise, or any change in the current equity ownership of Royaltech, including, without limitation, actions pending or to Royaltech’s knowledge threatened involving the prior employment of any of Royaltech’s employees, their use in connection with Royaltech’s business of any information or techniques allegedly proprietary to any of their former employers, or their obligations under any agreements with prior employers.

The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any such provision, instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree, or material contract or an event which results in the creation of any lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any assets of Royaltech.
IV. Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser represents and warrants to Royaltech as follows:
