No charge of discrimination has been filed against threatened against Parent (or any of its members, managers or employees) with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or similar governmental body.

(xx) Reporting Company/Shell Company. The Parent is a publicly-held company subject to reporting obligations pursuant to Sections 15 and 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Pursuant to the provisions of the Exchange Act, the Parent has timely filed all reports, and, to Parent’s knowledge, other materials required to be filed by the Parent thereunder, with the Securities and Exchange Commission during the preceding twelve months. As of the Closing Date, the Parent is not a “shell company”, as such term is used in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Parent has never been a “shell company,” it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that the foregoing representations are based on the good faith understanding of the Parent, the Parent Majority Shareholder and the Parent Executive, following a reasonable examination and investigation regarding applicable law and facts.

SECTION 7

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS

7.1 Investment Intent. Each of the Seller and the Seller Preferred Stockholders is acquiring the Purchase Price Shares for their own account with the present intention of holding such securities for purposes of investment, and that they each have no intention of distributing such Purchase Price Shares or selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of such Purchase Price Shares in a public distribution, in any of such instances, in violation of the federal securities laws of the United States of America.

7.2 Restricted Shares. Each of the Seller and the Seller Preferred Stockholders understand that (a) the Purchase Price Shares are “restricted securities,” as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); (b) such Purchase Price Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, and are being or will be issued in reliance on exemptions for private offerings contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act; (c) the Purchase Price Shares may not be distributed, re-offered or resold except through a valid and effective registration statement or pursuant to a valid exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act; and (d) until such time as the Purchase Price Shares become eligible for sale by it or them, either pursuant to the registration of such shares under the Securities Act, or pursuant to a valid exemption from such registration, the certificates evidencing the Purchase Price Shares shall contain the following legend:

“The shares of common stock or the specific series of preferred stock, as applicable evidenced by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Such shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless they have been so registered or the issuer of such shares shall have received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the issuer to the effect that registration thereof for purposes of transfer is not required under the Act or the securities laws of any state.”

7.3 Resale Limitations.

Each of the Seller and the Seller Preferred Stockholder is aware that (a) the Purchase Price Shares will not be registered under the Securities Act; and (b) because the issuance of the Purchase Price Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act, an investment in the Purchase Price Shares cannot be readily liquidated if the holder desires to do so, but rather may be required to be held indefinitely.

Each of the Seller and the Seller Preferred Stockholder is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, or is otherwise experienced in investments and business matters, has made investments of a speculative nature and has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax and other business matters as to enable it or him to evaluate the merits and risks of, and to make an informed investment decision with respect to, this Agreement. Each of the Seller and the Seller Preferred Stockholder understands that his acquisition of the Purchase Price Shares is a speculative investment, and each of the Seller and the Seller Preferred Stockholder represents that it or he is able to bear the risk of such investment for an indefinite period, and can afford a complete loss thereof.
