The Company’s officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures.

The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company is not insolvent or bankrupt and it has not filed for protection under applicable law. Moreover, there has been no petition in bankruptcy filed by the Company or against the Company.

SECTION 4.06. SEC Documents; Undisclosed Liabilities.
(a) Except for the September 30, 2015 quarterly report on Form 10-Q, Textmunication has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by Textmunication with the SEC, pursuant to Sections 13 and 15 of the Exchange Act, as applicable (the “Textmunication SEC Documents”).
(b) As of its respective filing date, each Textmunication SEC Document complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such Textmunication SEC Document, and did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Except to the extent that information contained in any Textmunication SEC Document has been revised or superseded by a later filed Textmunication SEC Document, none of Textmunication SEC Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c) Except as set forth in the filed Textmunication SEC Documents, Textmunication has no liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) required by GAAP to be set forth on a balance sheet of Textmunication or in the notes thereto. Textmunication Disclosure Letter sets forth all financial and contractual obligations and liabilities (including any obligations to issue capital stock or other securities of Textmunication) due after the date hereof. As of the date hereof, all liabilities of Textmunication have been paid off and shall in no event remain liabilities of Textmunication, the Company or the Shareholder following the Closing.
SECTION 4.07. Information Supplied. None of the information supplied or to be supplied by Textmunication for inclusion or incorporation by reference in any SEC filing of report by the Company contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.
SECTION 4.08. Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Except as disclosed in the filed Textmunication SEC Documents or in Textmunication Disclosure Letter, from the date of the most recent audited financial statements included in the filed Textmunication SEC Documents to the date of this Agreement, Textmunication has conducted its business only in the ordinary course, and during such period there has not been:

All Taxes shown to be due on such Tax Returns, or otherwise owed, have been timely paid, except to the extent that any failure to pay, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Textmunication Material Adverse Effect.
(b) The most recent financial statements contained in the filed Textmunication SEC Documents reflect an adequate reserve for all Taxes payable by Textmunication (in addition to any reserve for deferred Taxes to reflect timing differences between book and Tax items) for all Taxable periods and portions thereof through the date of such financial statements.

Except as set forth in Textmunication SEC Documents or in Textmunication Disclosure Letter, Textmunication has not received any written communication during the past two years from a Governmental Entity that alleges that Textmunication is not in compliance in any material respect with any applicable Law. Textmunication is in compliance with all effective requirements of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, that are applicable to it, except where such noncompliance could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Textmunication Material Adverse Effect.

Textmunication is not in violation of or in default under (nor does there exist any condition which upon the passage of time or the giving of notice would cause such a violation of or default under) any Contract to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets is bound, except for violations or defaults that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Textmunication Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 4.15. Title to Properties. Textmunication has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all of its properties and assets used in the conduct of its businesses. All such assets and properties, other than assets and properties in which Textmunication has leasehold interests, are free and clear of all Liens other than those set forth in Textmunication Disclosure Letter and except for Liens that, in the aggregate, do not and will not materially interfere with the ability of Textmunication to conduct business as currently conducted.

Textmunication’s officers have evaluated the effectiveness of Textmunication’s controls and procedures. There have been no significant changes in Textmunication’s internal controls or, to Textmunication’s knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect Textmunication’s internal controls.
SECTION 4.21. Solvency.

Textmunication does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).
SECTION 4.22. Application of Takeover Protections. Textmunication has taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under Textmunication’s charter documents or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Shareholder as a result of the Shareholder and Textmunication fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the issuance of Textmunication Shares and the Shareholder’s ownership of Textmunication Shares.
