(b)result in any fees, duties, taxes, assessments or other amounts relating to any of the Assets becoming due or payable other than sales tax payable by YWH in connection with the purchase and sale.
|

4.08REPRESENTATIONS RELATING TO ISSUANCE OF YWH'S COMMON STOCK. IC hereby represent and warrant to YWH as follows:
(i)The Shares to be acquired by IC are solely for its account and for investment and IC has no plan, intention, contract, understanding, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer to any person the Shares, or any portion thereof, except to its members, which assignment shall occur as a matter of law;
(ii)IC understands that neither the Shares nor the sale thereof to it has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), or under any state securities laws. IC understand that no registration statement has been filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, nor with any other regulatory authority and that, as a result, any benefit which might normally accrue to a holder of the Shares by an impartial review of such a registration statement by the Securities and Exchange Commission or other regulatory authority will not be forthcoming. IC understands that it cannot sell the Shares unless such sale is registered under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws or exemptions from such registration become available. In this connection, IC understand that YWH has advised the Transfer Agent for the Common Shares that the Shares are “restricted securities” under the 1933 Act and that they may not be transferred by IC to any person without the prior consent of YWH, which consent of YWH will require an opinion of counsel to the effect that, in the event the Shares are not registered under the 1933 Act, any transfer as may be proposed by IC must be entitled to an exemption from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act. To this
end, IC acknowledge that a legend to the following effect will be placed upon their respective certificate representing, in the aggregate, the Shares and that the Transfer Agent has been advised of such facts:
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY BE OFFERED AND SOLD ONLY IF REGISTERED PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE ACT OR IF AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER IS AVAILABLE, THE AVAILABILITY OF WHICH MUST BE ESTABLISHED TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE COMPANY.
IC understands that the foregoing legend on their certificate(s) for the Shares limits their value, including their value as collateral.
