All such insurance is fully in force, except where the failure to be in full force has not had and would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has no reason to believe that it will not be able to renew or extend its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or will not be able to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business without an increase in cost significantly greater than general increases in cost experienced for similar companies in similar industries with respect to similar coverage.

The Company is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), and no proceeds of any Warrants will be used in a manner as would cause the transactions contemplated hereby to violate Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
