5 | Representations and Warranties of Investor |
Each of the Investors represents and warrants to the Company, severally, the following to be true and correct as at the date hereof and at the Closing, except as otherwise specifically indicated below:
5.1 | Organization and Existence. The Investor is a corporation or a limited partnership duly incorporated and registered and validly existing under the laws of its incorporation, and has all corporate powers and authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its business as now conducted. |
5.2 | Corporate Authorization; Enforceability. The execution and delivery by the Investor of this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation and performance by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action on its part. The Investor has the full power and authority to execute and perform this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which it is a party. This Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which it is a party, as applicable, constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Investor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. |
- 14 -
5.3 | No Violation; Consents and Approvals. The execution and performance by the Investor of this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which it is a party: (A) does not violate, conflict with, or result in a breach or violation of or constitute a default under (a) any agreement, contract, license, instrument, lease or other obligation to which the Investor is a party or by which it is bound, (b) any judgment, order, decree, ruling or injunction, (c) any Law applying to it, or (d) as at the Closing, any of its corporate documents (and the Investor undertakes to amend and register its corporate documents accordingly as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement to the extent required); and (B) does not require the consent or approval of any Person or any registration or filings with, notices to, or Permit of any third party (including any Governmental Agency or other Person), which consent or approval shall not be obtained prior to the Closing. |
5.4 | Purchase Entirely for Own Account; No Public Market. The applicable portion of the Issued Shares (collectively, the “Purchased Shares”) will be acquired for investment for the Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and the Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. The Investor does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement to sell, transfer or grant participation rights to any person with respect to any of the Purchased Shares. The Investor has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Purchased Shares. The Investor understands that the Purchased Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the “Securities Act”) and no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Company’s securities. |
5.5 | Disclosure of Information. The Investor represents that it has had an opportunity to complete a due diligence review and had an opportunity to discuss and receive answers from the Company’s management regarding their business, operations, properties, prospects, technology, plans, management, financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Purchased Shares. The foregoing, however, does not limit, modify or qualify the Warranties made in Section 4 or the right of the Investors to rely on them.

5.6 | Investment Experience; Accredited Investor; Non-U.S. Person. The Investor is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating and understanding the merits and risks of the investment in the Purchased Shares and has the capacity to protect its own interests, in addition the Investor is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition as presented to it by the Company, and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Purchased Shares (on the basis of and without derogating from the Warranties under Section 4). Moreover, the Investor acknowledges that due to the inherent risk involved in such investment, the Investor’s investment may be substantially or totally lost. The Investor is either (i) an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, or (ii) a Non U.S. Person as defined under Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. To the extent that the Investor is a non U.S. Person, such Investor (x) is not acquiring Purchased Shares for the account or benefit of any U.S. Person, (y) is not, at the time of execution of this Agreement, and will not be, at the time of the Closing, in the United States and (z) is not a “distributor” (as defined in Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act). |
