(i) Buyer Liquidity. Each Buyer has adequate means of providing for such Buyer’s current financial needs and foreseeable contingencies and has no need for liquidity of its investment in the Notes for an indefinite period of time.
(j) High Risk Investment; Review of Risk Factors. The Buyer is aware that an investment in the Notes involves a number of very significant risks and has carefully reviewed and understands the risks of, and other considerations relating to, the purchase of the Notes.

(l) Information. Each Buyer and its Advisors have been furnished with all documents and materials, including the Transaction Documents (defined below) and the Information package relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and information that Buyer requested and deemed material to making an informed investment decision regarding its purchase of the Notes. Each Buyer and its Advisors have been afforded the opportunity to review such documents and materials, as well as the Company’s SEC Filings, as such term is defined below (hard copies of which were made available to the Buyer upon request to the Company or were otherwise accessible to the Buyer via the SEC’s XXXXX system), and the information contained therein. Each Buyer and its Advisors have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its management. Each Buyer understands that such discussions, as well as any written information provided by the Company, were intended to describe the aspects of the Company’s business and prospects which the Company believes to be material, but were not necessarily a thorough or exhaustive description, and except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the completeness of such information and makes no representation or warranty of any kind with respect to any information provided by any entity other than the Company. Some of such information may include projections as to the future performance of the Company, which projections may not be realized, may be based on assumptions which may not be correct and may be subject to numerous factors both beyond and within the Company’s control. Additionally, the Buyer understands and represents that he is purchasing the Notes notwithstanding the fact that the Company may disclose in the future certain material information the Buyer has not received, including its financial results for its current fiscal quarter. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Buyer or its Advisors shall modify, amend or affect such Buyer’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in Section 3 below.

(m) Capitalization. The Buyer is aware of the Company’s current capitalization as set forth in Section 3(c) and Schedule 3(c) below.

-6-
(n) No Other Representations or Information.

No oral or written representations have been made, or oral or written information furnished, to the Buyer or its Advisors, if any, in connection with the offering of the Notes.
(o) No Governmental Review. Each Buyer understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Notes, or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Notes, nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Notes.
(p) Transfer or Resale. (A) Each Buyer understands that: (i) the Notes have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder, or (B) such Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such securities to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements; (ii) any sale of such securities made in reliance on Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor rule thereto) (“Rule 144”) may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of such securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require compliance with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (iii) except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register such securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder.
(B) Each Buyer understands that on December 10, 2014, the Company ceased to be a “shell company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Pursuant to Rule 144(i), securities issued by a former shell company (that is, the Notes (and the Conversion Shares)) 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 Company (a) is no longer a shell company; and (b) has filed current “Form 10 information” (as defined in Rule 144(i)) with the SEC reflecting that it is no longer a shell company, and provided that at the time of a proposed sale pursuant to Rule 144, the Company 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, the restrictive legends on certificates for the Securities cannot be removed except in connection with an actual sale meeting the foregoing requirements or pursuant to an effective registration statement.
(q) Legends. Each Buyer understands that the certificates or other instruments representing the Notes (and the Conversion Shares) shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”).

The Buyer agrees that it will treat such information in a confidential manner, will not use such information for any purpose other than evaluating an investment in the Notes, will not, directly or indirectly, trade or permit the Buyer’s agents, representatives or affiliates to trade in any securities of the Company while in possession of such information and will not, directly or indirectly, disclose or permit the Buyer’s agents, representatives or affiliates to disclose any of such information without the Company’s prior written consent. The Buyer shall make its agents, affiliates and representatives aware of the confidential nature of the information contained herein and the terms of this section including the Buyer’s agreement to not disclose such information, to not trade in the Company’s securities while in the possession of such information and to be responsible for any disclosure or other improper use of such information by such agents, affiliates or representatives.

(y) (For ERISA plan Buyers only).

The Buyer fiduciary or Plan (a) is responsible for the decision to invest in the Company; (b) is independent of the Company or any of its affiliates; (c) is qualified to make such investment decision; and (d) in making such decision, the Buyer fiduciary or Plan has not relied primarily on any advice or recommendation of the Company or any of its affiliates;

(z) The Buyer should check the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) website at xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxx/xxxx before making the following representations. The Buyer represents that the amounts invested by it in the Company in the Notes were not and are not directly or indirectly derived from activities that contravene federal, state or international laws and regulations, including anti-money laundering laws and regulations. Federal regulations and Executive Orders administered by OFAC prohibit, among other things, the engagement in transactions with, and the provision of services to, certain foreign countries, territories, entities and individuals. The lists of OFAC prohibited countries, territories, persons and entities can be found on the OFAC website at xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxx/xxxx.

Please be advised that the Company may not accept any amounts from a prospective investor if such prospective investor cannot make the representation set forth in the preceding paragraph. The Buyer agrees to promptly notify the Company should the Buyer become aware of any change in the information set forth in these representations. The Buyer understands and acknowledges that, by law, the Company may be obligated to “freeze the account” of the Buyer, either by prohibiting additional subscriptions from the Buyer, declining any redemption requests and/or segregating the assets in the account in compliance with governmental regulations, and a broker may also be required to report such action and to disclose the Buyer’s identity to OFAC. The Buyer further acknowledges that the Company may, by written notice to the Buyer, suspend the redemption rights, if any, of the Buyer if the Company reasonably deems it necessary to do so to comply with anti-money laundering regulations applicable to the Company or any broker or any of the Company’s other service providers. These individuals include specially designated nationals, specially designated narcotics traffickers and other parties subject to OFAC sanctions and embargo programs;

(o) ANTI MONEY LAUNDERING REQUIREMENTS
The USA PATRIOT Act
|
What is money laundering?
|
How big is the problem and why is it important?
|
The USA PATRIOT Act is designed to detect, deter, and punish terrorists in the United States and abroad. The Act imposes new anti-money laundering requirements on brokerage firms and financial institutions. Since April 24, 2002, all brokerage firms have been required to have new, comprehensive anti-money laundering programs.
To help you understand these efforts, we want to provide you with some information about money laundering and our steps to implement the USA PATRIOT Act.
|
Money laundering is the process of disguising illegally obtained money so that the funds appear to come from legitimate sources or activities. Money laundering occurs in connection with a wide variety of crimes, including illegal arms sales, drug trafficking, robbery, fraud, racketeering, and terrorism.
|
The use of the U.S. financial system by criminals to facilitate terrorism or other crimes could well taint our financial markets. According to the U.S. State Department, one recent estimate puts the amount of worldwide money laundering activity at $1 trillion a year.
|
What are we required to do to eliminate money laundering?
|
|
Under new rules required by the USA PATRIOT Act, our anti-money laundering program must designate a special compliance officer, set up employee training, conduct independent audits, and establish policies and procedures to detect and report suspicious transaction and ensure compliance with the new laws.
|
As part of our required program, we may ask you to provide various identification documents or other information. Until you provide the information or documents we need, we may not be able to effect any transactions for you.
