In furtherance thereof, the Subscriber represents and warrants to the Company and its affiliates as follows:
(i) The Subscriber realizes that the basis for the exemption from registration may not be available if, notwithstanding the Subscriber’s representations contained herein, the Subscriber is merely acquiring the Shares for a fixed or determinable period in the future, or for a market rise, or for sale if the market does not rise. The Subscriber attests that it does not have any such intention.
(ii) The Subscriber realizes that the basis for exemption would not be available if the offering of the Shares is part of a plan or scheme to evade registration provisions of the Securities Act or any applicable state or federal securities laws.
