Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (GAAP), except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Buyer as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments.

(h) Litigation. There is no action, suit, inquiry, notice of violation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Buyer, threatened against or affecting the Buyer before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority (federal, state, county, local or foreign) (collectively, an Action) which (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of this Agreement or the Securities to be issued hereunder. Neither the Buyer nor any director or officer is or has been the subject of any action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty. There has not been, and to the knowledge of the Buyer, there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the SEC involving the Buyer or any current or former director or officer of the Buyer.

The Buyer is in compliance with any and all applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, and the Buyer maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with managements general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with managements general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Buyer has established disclosure controls and procedures [as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)] for the Buyer and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Buyer in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. The Buyers certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures of the Buyer as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the Evaluation Date). The Buyer presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting of the Buyer.
(j) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Buyers common stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and the Buyer has taken no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of its shares of common stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Buyer received any notification that the SEC is contemplating terminating such registration. The Buyer has not, in the twelve (12) months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any trading market on which its shares of common stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Buyer is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such trading market. The Buyer is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements. The Buyers registered shares of common stock are currently eligible for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation and the Buyer is current in payment of the fees to the Depository Trust Company (or such other established clearing corporation) in connection with such electronic transfer.
