(a) Prior to the time of purchase of any Securities, Participant has had an opportunity to review the Company’s reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents filed by it with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC Reports”), and Participant has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive any additional information from persons acting on behalf of the Company to verify Participant’s understanding of the terms thereof and of the Company’s business and status thereof. Participant acknowledges that no officer, director, broker-dealer, placement agent, finder or other person affiliated with the Company has given Participant any information or made any representations, oral or written, other than as provided in the SEC Reports and herein, on which Participant has relied upon in deciding to invest in the Securities, including without limitation, any information with respect to future acquisitions, mergers or operations of the Company or the economic returns which may accrue as a result of the purchase of the Securities.

Participant must not purchase the Securities unless Participant has liquid assets sufficient to assure Participant that such purchase will cause it no undue financial difficulties, and that Participant can still provide for current and possible personal contingencies, and that the commitment herein for the Securities, combined with other investments of Participant, is reasonable in relation to its net worth.

(i) Participant understands that the right to transfer the Securities will be restricted unless the transfer is not in violation of the Securities Act, the California Securities Law, and any other applicable state or foreign securities laws (including investment suitability standards), that the Company will not consent to a transfer of the Securities unless the transferee represents that such transferee meets the financial suitability standards required of an initial participant, and that the Company has the right, in its absolute discretion, to refuse to consent to such transfer.

(j) Participant has been advised to consult with its own attorney or attorneys regarding all legal matters concerning an investment in the Company and the tax consequences of purchasing the Securities, and have done so, to the extent Participant considers necessary.

(k) Participant acknowledges that the tax consequences of investing in the Company will depend on particular circumstances, and neither the Company, the Company’s officers, any other investors, nor the partners, shareholders, members, directors, agents, officers, directors, employees, affiliates or consultants of any of them, will be responsible or liable for the tax consequences to Participant of an investment in the Company. Participant will look solely to and rely upon its own advisers with respect to the tax consequences of this investment

(l) All information which Participant has provided to the Company concerning Participant, its financial position and its knowledge of financial and business matters, and any information found in the Certificate of Accredited Investor Status, is truthful, accurate, correct, and complete as of the date set forth herein.
