ARTICLE III
 
Representations and Warranties of Purchaser

Subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Sellers, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing, as follows:

 
 

 

Section 3.01.  Authority.  Purchaser has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.  Purchaser has duly and validly executed and delivered this Agreement and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the other parties hereto and thereto, this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles.

Section 3.02.  No Conflict.  The execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and shall not, by the lapse of time, the giving of notice or otherwise:  (a) constitute a violation of any law; or (b) constitute a breach of any provision contained in, or a default under, any governmental approval, any writ, injunction, order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority or any contract to which Purchaser is a party or by which Purchaser is bound or affected.

Section 3.03.  Consents and Approvals. No governmental approvals and no notifications, filings or registrations to or with any governmental authority or any other person is or will be necessary for the valid execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement and the closing documents to which it is a party, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or the enforceability hereof or thereof, other than those which have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect.

Section 3.04.  Litigation.  There are no claims pending or, to the knowledge of Purchaser, threatened, and Purchaser has no knowledge of the basis for any claim, which either alone or in the aggregate, seeks to restrain or enjoin the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.  There are no judgments or outstanding orders, injunctions, decrees, stipulations or awards against Purchaser which prohibits or restricts, or could reasonably be expected to result in any delay of, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 3.05.  Brokers, Finders and Financial Advisors.   No broker, finder or financial advisor has acted for Purchaser in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and no broker, finder or financial advisor is entitled to any broker’s, finder’s or financial advisor’s fee or other commission in respect thereof based in any way on any contract with Purchaser.

Section 3.06.  Restricted Common Stock.  The Purchaser understands that Suncross has not registered the Common Stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or the applicable securities laws of any state in reliance on exemptions from registration.  The Purchaser further understands that such exemptions depend upon the Purchaser’s investment intent at the time the Purchaser acquires the Common Stock, the Purchaser therefore represents and warrants that the Purchaser is purchasing the Common Stock for her own account for investment and not with a view to distribution, assignment, resale or other transfer of the Common Stock.  Except as specifically stated herein, no other person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in the Common Stock.  Because the Common Stock shares are not registered, the Purchaser is aware that he must hold them indefinitely unless they are registered under the Act and any applicable state securities laws or he must obtain exemptions from such registration.
