a. Account. The Investor is acquiring the Shares for investment for its own account, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, and it has no present intention of selling or distributing any of the Shares. The Investor understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. as amended (the “Securities Act”) by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment as expressed herein.
b. Access to Data. The Investor has had an opportunity to discuss the Corporation's business, management and financial affairs with its management and to obtain any additional information which the Investor has deemed necessary or appropriate for deciding whether or not to purchase the Securities, and has had an opportunity to receive, review and understand the disclosures and information regarding the Corporation's financial statements, capitalization and other business information as set forth in Corporation's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC Filings”) which are all incorporated herein by reference, together with all exhibits referenced therein. Investor understands that any information obtained from the Corporation that has not been disclosed in the Corporation's SEC Filings is confidential and may not be disclosed to any third party or used by the Investor for purposes of trading in the Corporation's publicly traded stock until such information is publicly released by the Corporation. The Investor acknowledges that no other representations or warranties, oral or written, have been made by the Corporation or any agent thereof except as set forth in this Agreement.
