Section 3.04 Governmental Authorization.

  (b) Investment Purpose. Holder understands and agrees that the consummation of this Agreement including the delivery of the Exchange Shares to the Holder in exchange for the Obligations as contemplated hereby constitutes the offer and sale of securities under the Securities Act and applicable state statutes. Holder is acquiring the Exchange Shares for its own account as principal, not as a nominee or agent, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or for, resale, distribution or fractionalization thereof in whole or in part and no other person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in the Exchange Shares.

(e) Reliance on Exemptions. Holder understands that the Exchange Shares are being offered and sold to Holder in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities Laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Holder’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Holder set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Holder to acquire the Exchange Shares.
   
(f) Transfer Restrictions. Holder agrees and warrants to not sell or otherwise transfer the Exchange Shares without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and Holder fully understand and agrees that Holder must bear the economic risk of Holder’s purchase, because, among other reasons, the Exchange Shares have not been registered under the securities laws of any state, and therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned, or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under the under the applicable securities laws of such states, or unless exemptions from such registration requirements are available. In particular, Holder is aware that the Shares are “restricted securities,” as such term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. Holder further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements, including the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Exchange Shares, and requirements relating to the Company that are outside of Holder’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.
   
(g) Information. Holder and Holder’s advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Exchange Shares which have been requested by Holder or their advisors. Holder and Holder’s advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. Holder understands that their investment in the Exchange Shares involves a significant degree of risk.
   
(h) No Public Market. Holder understands that no public market now exists for the Exchange Shares, and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Exchange Shares.

 

(i) Investment Experience. Holder, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Exchange Shares, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Holder is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Exchange Shares and, at the present time, has no need for liquidity with respect to its investment in the Company.
   
(j) Potential Loss of Investment. Holder is aware and acknowledges that the Exchange Shares involve a substantial degree of risk of loss of its entire investment and that there is no government or other insurance covering the Exchange Shares; and (b) because there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Exchange Shares it may not be possible for Holder to liquidate its investment readily

(k) No Advertising. At no time was Holder presented with or solicited by any leaflet, newspaper or magazine article, radio or television advertisement, or any other form of general advertising or solicited or invited to attend a promotional meeting otherwise than in connection and concurrently with such communicated offer with respect to the Exchange Shares. Holder is not purchasing the Exchange Shares as a result of any “general solicitation” or “general advertising,” as such terms are defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act, which includes, but is not limited to, any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Exchange Shares published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or on the internet or broadcast over television, radio or the internet or presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.
