Former Shell Company Clause Samples

Former Shell Company. The Company is not a “Shell Company” within the meaning of Rule 144(i) of Rule 405 of the Act, and has not been a Shell Company since the Company filed a Form 8-K on March 9, 2010. As of March 9, 2010, the Company had filed current “Form 10 information” with the Commission reflecting its status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1). Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Company was, at one time, a “shell company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. Pursuant to Rule 144(i) under the Securities Act, securities issued by a current or former shell company (such as the Securities) that otherwise meet the holding period and other requirements of Rule 144 nevertheless cannot be sold in reliance on Rule 144 until one year after the date on which such company filed current “Form 10 information” (as defined in Rule 144(i)) with the SEC reflecting that it ceased being a shell company (and that, in the Company’s case, such Form 10 Information was filed on May 14, 2010), and provided that at the time of a proposed sale pursuant to Rule 144, the issuer is subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports. As a result, shares issued without legend may need to be returned to have such legend affixed to them in the event that the Registration Statement is not effective and the Company ceases to be subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or fails to file a required report, subject to legend removal once a Legend Removal Condition has again been met.
