3.07Brokers. No broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder's or other fee or commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Seller.
3.08Securities.
(a)Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Stock Consideration to be acquired by Seller will be acquired for investment for Seller’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or applicable state law, and Seller has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same in violation of the Securities Act or applicable state law. Seller does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or entity or to any third party, with respect to any of the Stock Consideration.
(b)Restricted Securities. Seller understands that the Stock Consideration shares have not been, and will not be, registered under 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 intent and the accuracy of Seller’s representations as expressed herein. Seller understands that the Stock Consideration shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, Seller must hold the Consideration Stock indefinitely unless they are registered under the Securities Act and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. Seller further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Consideration Stock, and on requirements relating to Purchaser which are outside of Seller’s control and which Purchaser is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.
(c)Disclosure of Information. Seller is aware of the Purchaser’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about Purchaser to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Consideration Stock.
(d)Accredited Investor. Seller is an accredited investor an within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Act.
(e)Rule 144. Seller is aware of the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly from the issuer thereof (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, in case the Seller has held the securities for at least one year or is an affiliate of the Purchaser: (i) the resale occurring not less than one year after the party has purchased and paid for the securities to be sold and (ii) in the case of an affiliate: (A) the availability of certain public information about the Company; (B) the sale being made through a broker in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a market maker (as these terms are defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); (C) the amount of securities being sold during any three-month period not exceeding certain specified limitations and (D) the filing of a Notice of Sale on Form 144 as appropriate.
5
(f)No Public Market. Seller understands that at the time, if any, it wishes to sell the Consideration Stock, there may be no public market upon which to make such a sale, and that, even if such a public market then exists the Purchaser may not be satisfying the current public information requirements of Rule 144, and that, in such event, the Seller would be precluded from selling the Consideration Stock under Rule 144 unless (1) a one-year minimum holding period had been satisfied and (2) the Seller was not at the time of sale nor at any time during the three-month period prior to such sale an affiliate of the Purchaser.
(g)Additional Matters. Seller understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Act, compliance with Regulation A under the Act, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transaction do so at their own risk.
