(a) The Consultant represents that it is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act, and acknowledges that the issuance to the Consultant of the Shares contemplated hereby is being made in reliance, among other things, on a private placement exemption with respect to “accredited investors” under the Securities Act and similar exemptions under state law.

(b) The Consultant is acquiring the Shares solely for investment purposes, for the Consultant’s own account (and/or for the account or benefit of its members or affiliates) and not with a view to the distribution thereof, and the Consultant has (and any such members or affiliates have) no present arrangement to sell or distribute the Shares to or through any person or entity.

(c) The Consultant acknowledges and understands the Shares are being issued to it by the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering in the United States within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and, if in the future the Consultant decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares, such Shares may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (B) pursuant to an exemption from registration under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, if available, or (C) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in each case in accordance with the applicable securities laws of any state or any other jurisdiction.

(d) The Consultant is sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of an investment in the Shares.

(e) The Consultant is aware that an investment in the Shares is highly speculative and subject to substantial risks because, among other things, the Shares are subject to transfer restrictions and have not been registered under the Securities Act and therefore cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Consultant is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time.

(f) The Consultant, in making the decision to acquire the Shares, has relied upon an independent investigation of the Company and has not relied upon any information or representations made by any third parties or upon any oral or written representations or assurances from the Company, its officers, directors or employees or any other representatives or agents of the Company.
