(w)

Disclosure.  No representation or warranty by Seller

contained in this Agreement, and no statement contained in the Schedules or any other document, certificate or other instrument delivered or to be delivered by or on behalf of Seller pursuant to this Agreement, contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary, in light of the circumstances under which it was or will be made, in order to make the statements herein or therein not misleading.  Seller has disclosed to Buyer all material information relating to the Business of Seller or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


(x)

By executing this Agreement, Seller further represents that Seller does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or third person with respect to any of the Shares.

Restrictions on Transfer. Seller understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or registered or qualified under any state securities law, and may not be, directly or indirectly, sold, transferred, offered for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act and registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws or the availability of an exemption therefrom, such as Rule 144 which requires a minimum holding period of six (6) months. In any case where such an exemption is relied upon by Seller from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the registration or qualification requirements of such state securities laws, Seller shall furnish the Company with an opinion of counsel stating that the proposed sale or other disposition of such securities may be effected without registration under the Securities Act and will not result in any violation of any applicable state securities laws relating to the registration or qualification of securities for sale, such counsel and opinion to be satisfactory to the Company. Seller acknowledges that it is able to bear the economic risks of an investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time, and that its overall commitment to investments that are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to its net worth.


(bb)

Investment Experience. Seller and each Member has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in financial, tax and business matters in general, and investments in securities in particular, that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Securities, and Seller and each Member has made such investigations in connection herewith as it deemed necessary or desirable so as to make an informed investment decision without relying upon the Company for legal or tax advice related to this investment.

(cc)

Access to Information. Seller acknowledges that it has had access to and has reviewed all documents and records relating to the Company, including, but not limited to, the Company’s Annual Report on SEC Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 attached hereto as Exhibit A, any Annual Report on SEC Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on SEC Form 10-Q, or Current Report on SEC Form 8-K filed with the SEC after August 27, 2013 and before the date this Agreement is executed (as such documents have been amended since the date of their filing, collectively, the “Company SEC Documents”), that it has deemed necessary in order to make an informed investment decision with respect to an investment in the Shares; that it has had the opportunity to ask representatives of the Company certain questions and request certain additional information regarding the terms and conditions of such investment and the



17




finances, operations, business and prospects of the Company and has had any and all such questions and requests answered to its satisfaction; and that it understands the risks and other considerations relating to such investment. Seller understands any statement contained in the Company SEC Documents shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for the purposes of this Agreement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other document subsequently filed with the SEC modifies or supersedes such statement.


(dd)

Reliance on Representations. Seller understands that the Shares are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Seller’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Seller set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Seller to acquire the Shares. Seller represents and warrants to the Company that any information that Seller has heretofore furnished or furnishes herewith to the Company is complete and accurate, and further represents and warrants that it will notify and supply corrective information to the Company immediately upon the occurrence of any change therein occurring prior to the Company’s issuance of the Shares. Within five (5) days after receipt of a request from the Company, Seller will provide such information and deliver such documents as may reasonably be necessary to comply with any and all laws and regulations to which the Company is subject.


(ee)

Legends. The certificates and agreements evidencing the Shares shall have endorsed thereon the following legend (and appropriate notations thereof will be made in the Company’s stock transfer books), and stop transfer instructions reflecting these restrictions on transfer will be placed with the transfer agent of the Shares:


THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN TAKEN BY THE REGISTERED OWNER FOR INVESTMENT, AND WITHOUT A VIEW TO RESALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR DISPOSED OF WITHOUT AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH TRANSFER OR DISPOSITION DOES NOT VIOLATE THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, THE RULES AND REGULATIONS THEREUNDER OR OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS.
