To best of Borrower’s knowledge, all of such rights are valid, enforceable and in good standing. The sale of Note to the Purchaser and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated hereby and under the Transaction Documents will not adversely affect any rights in the Intellectual Property of any Borrower or any Subsidiary. The operation of the business of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries does not knowingly infringe in any way on or conflict with any patent, trademark, trade name, or any registered or unregistered copyright, Trade Secret, contract, license or other right, of any Person, and neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary licenses any such knowingly infringing right from others. Except as set forth on Schedule 4(o), no claim is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened or has been made within the past five years, to the effect that any such infringement or conflict has occurred.
