Securities Act Exemption Neither the Holder nor anyone acting on behalf of the Holder has received any commission or remuneration directly or indirectly in connection with or in order to solicit or facilitate the Exchange. The Holder understands that the Exchange contemplated hereby is intended to be exempt from registration by virtue of Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.

FINRA Exemption To enable Xxxxx to rely on Rule 5110(b)(7)(C)(i) of FINRA, the Company represents that the Company (i) has a non-affiliate, public common equity float of at least $150 million or a non-affiliate, public common equity float of at least $100 million and annual trading volume of at least three million shares and (ii) has been subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements for a period of at least 36 months.
Withholding Tax Exemption At least five Business Days prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, agrees that it will deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each Lender which so delivers a Form 1001 or 4224 further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent two additional copies of such form (or a successor form) on or before the date that such form expires (currently, three successive calendar years for Form 1001 and one calendar year for Form 4224) or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, in each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.
Offering Exemption Assuming the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties contained in Section 7, this issuance and delivery to the Holder of this Note is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and will be registered or qualified (or exempt from registration or qualification) under applicable state securities and “blue sky” laws, as currently in effect.
Federal Income Tax Treatment It is the intention of the Trust Depositor that the Trust be disregarded as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3(b)(1)(ii) as in effect for periods after January 1, 1997. The Equity Certificate constitutes the sole equity interest in the Trust and must at all times be held by either the Trust Depositor or its transferee as sole Owner. The Trust Depositor agrees not to take any action inconsistent with such intended federal income tax treatment. Because for federal income tax purposes the Trust will be disregarded as a separate entity, Trust items of income, gain, loss and deduction for any month as determined for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated entirely to the Owner; provided, that this sentence shall not limit or otherwise affect the provisions of the Transaction Documents pertaining to distributions of Trust Assets or proceeds thereof to Persons other than the Trust Depositor.
Exemption Where either party fails to perform this Agreement in full or in part due to Force Majeure, such party shall be exempted from its responsibilities hereunder, to the extent of the Force Majeure in question and except where PRC law provides otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, a party shall not be excused from performing its obligations hereunder where Force Majeure occurs following the delay by that party to perform this Agreement.
Exemption from Lien Except as set forth in Section 9 hereof, the securities and other assets held by the Custodian hereunder shall not be subject to lien or charge of any kind in favor of the Custodian or any person claiming through the Custodian. Nothing herein shall be deemed to deprive the Custodian of its right to invoke any and all remedies available at law or equity to collect amounts due it under this Agreement.
