The Buyer understands and acknowledges that the SEC currently takes the position that coverage of short sales of shares of the Common Stock “against the box” prior to the effective date of a registration statement with the Securities is a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Item 65, Section 5 under Section A, of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997, compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance.
