Section 1.18 Acquisition of the Shares by the NLI Shareholders. The NLI Shareholders are acquiring the Shares (as defined in Section 3.01) for their own account without the participation of any other person and with the intent of holding the Shares for investment and without the intent of participating, directly or indirectly, in a distribution of the Shares, or any portion thereof, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution of the Shares, or any portion thereof. The NLI Shareholders have read, understood and consulted with their legal counsel regarding the limitations and requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). The NLI Shareholders will offer, sell, pledge, convey or otherwise transfer the Shares, or any portion thereof, only if: (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act and any and all applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws or in a transaction which is otherwise in compliance with the 1933 Act and such laws; or (ii) pursuant to a valid exemption from registration.
Section 1.19 Exemption from Registration. The Exchange and the transactions contemplated thereby, meet an exemption from registration pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act.
Section 1.20 Representations, Acknowledgements and Warranties of the NLI Shareholders. The NLI Shareholders represent, acknowledge and warrant the following to the Company, except as set forth on the NLI Schedules (as hereinafter defined, which shall contain any exceptions or qualifications to the representations and warranties are set forth below), and agree that such representations, acknowledgements and warranties shall be automatically reconfirmed on the Closing Date:
(a) Each NLI Shareholder recognizes that the Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act, nor under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold unless the resale of the Shares is registered under the 1933 Act or unless an exemption from registration is available. Each NLI Shareholder may not sell the Shares without registering them under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities laws unless exemptions from such registration requirements are available with respect to any such sale;
(b) Each NLI Shareholder is acquiring the Shares for its own account for long-term investment and not with a view toward resale, fractionalization or division, or distribution thereof, and does not presently have any reason to anticipate any change in his circumstances, financial or otherwise, or particular occasion or event which would necessitate or require the sale or distribution of the Shares. No one other than the NLI Shareholder will have any beneficial interest in said securities. Each NLI Shareholder agrees to set forth the terms of its ownership, record address and tax id number on the Type of Ownership Form, attached hereto as Exhibit A;
(c) Each NLI Shareholder acknowledges (the following defined as the “Acknowledgements”) that each of them:
a. is a “sophisticated investor”, and
b. has had an opportunity to and in fact has thoroughly reviewed the Company’s periodic report (Form 10-K and 10-Q) filings, current report filings (Form 8-K) and the audited and unaudited financial statements, risk factors, results of operations and related business disclosures described therein at http:///www. SEC. gov (“XXXXX”); has had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers and to request additional relevant information from a person or persons acting on behalf of the Company regarding such information; and has no pending questions as of the date of this Agreement;
(d) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such NLI Shareholder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares and of making an informed investment decision, and does not require a representative in evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares;
(e) recognizes that an investment in the Company is a speculative venture and that the total amount of consideration tendered in connection with the Exchange Offer is placed at the risk of the business and may be completely lost. The ownership of the Shares as an investment involves special risks;
(f) realizes that the Shares cannot readily be sold as they will be restricted securities and therefore the Shares must not be accepted in the Exchange Offer unless such NLI Shareholder has liquid assets sufficient to assure that such purchase will cause no undue financial difficulties and such NLI Shareholder can provide for current needs and possible personal contingencies;
(g) confirm and represent that each is able (i) to bear the economic risk of his investment, (ii) to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time, and (iii) to afford a complete loss of its investment. Each NLI Shareholder also represents that he has (i) adequate means of providing for its current needs and possible personal contingencies, and (ii) has no need for liquidity in this particular investment;
(h) confirm that all information which such NLI Shareholder has provided to the Company concerning such NLI Shareholder’s financial position and knowledge of financial and business matters is correct and complete as of the date hereof, and if there should be any material change in such information prior to the Closing Date, such NLI Shareholder will immediately provide the Company with such information;
(i) carefully considered and has, to the extent it believes such discussion necessary, discussed with his professional, legal, tax and financial advisors, the suitability of an investment in the Shares for its particular tax and financial situation and its advisers, if such advisors were deemed necessary, have determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for it;
(j) has not become aware of and has not been offered the Shares by any form of general solicitation or advertising, including, but not limited to, advertisements, articles, notices or other communications published in any newspaper, magazine, or other similar media or television or radio broadcast or any seminar or meeting where, to such NLI Shareholder’s knowledge, those individuals that have attended have been invited by any such or similar means of general solicitation or advertising; and
(k) understands that:
(i)pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act (“Rule 144”), a “shell company” is defined as a company that has no or nominal operations; and, either no or nominal assets; assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents; or assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. As such, the Company acknowledges that it was once a “shell company” pursuant to Rule 144 (the Company does not currently believe it is still considered a “shell company”, however there is a risk that the Securities and Exchange Commission could still take the position that the Company is a “shell company”), and as such, resales of the Company’s securities (including the Shares) pursuant to Rule 144 may not be made until all of the following criteria set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) have been met: (1) the Company has ceased to be a shell company, (2) Company is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), (3) Company has filed all of its required periodic reports (other than 8-k’s) for the prior one year period, and (4) a period of at least twelve months has elapsed from the date “Form 10 like information” was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) reflecting the Company’s status as a non-shell company.
(ii) Because the Company is not current in its filings as required by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (as stated herein the Company has not filed its Form 10-Q for the three months ended July 31, 2010), none of Company’s securities (including the Shares) can be resold pursuant to Rule 144, until at least a year after Company has complied with Rule 144(i)(2), and until such time as the Company has filed all of its required periodic reports for a period of one year.
(iii) As such, and because (1) the Company believes that it ceased being a “shell company” on August 11, 2010 (which would mean that assuming compliance with the other requirements of Rule 144(i)(2), which the Company is not in compliance with as provided in (2), no sales would be eligible to be made under Rule 144, until at the earliest August 11, 2011); (2) the Company is currently deficient in its periodic report filing and therefore not eligible for Rule 144 regardless of its believed status as a former “shell company”; and 3) the Commission could still take the position that the Company is a “shell company” and therefore not eligible to use Rule 144 until such time as it complies with Rule 144(i)(2) and otherwise ceases to be a “shell company”, the Shares will have no liquidity until and unless such Securities are registered with the Commission, or an exemption for resales can be relied upon other than Rule 144 and/or until a year after we have deemed to have complied with the requirements of Rule 144(i)(2) as described above, and only assuming we are current in our periodic filings.
(iv) As a result, the NLI Shareholders may never be able to sell the Shares. The Company has advised the NLI Shareholders that it may be substantially more difficult or impossible for the Company to fund its operations and pay its consultants with Company’s securities instead of cash. Furthermore, the Company represents that it will be substantially more difficult for the Company to obtain funding through the sale of debt or equity securities unless the Company agrees to register such securities with the Commission, which could cause the Company to expend additional resources in the future. The Company’s status as a former “shell company” (and potential status as a current “shell company”) is highly likely to prevent Company from raising any additional funds, engaging consultants, using Company securities to pay for any acquisitions, which could cause the value of the Company’s securities, if any, to decline in value or become worthless. Furthermore, as Company may not ever comply with Rule 144(i)(2), the NLI Shareholders may be forced to hold such Shares indefinitely, and such Shares may not have any liquidity.
Section 1.21. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx. The NLI Shareholders certify and confirm that they have not personally, nor through any third parties, purchased, nor caused to be purchased in the public marketplace any publicly-traded shares of the Company. The NLI Shareholders further certify and confirm that they have not communicated the nature of the transactions contemplated herein, are not aware of any disclosure of non-public information regarding the Company or the transactions contemplated herein, and are not a party to any xxxxxxx xxxxxxx in the Company’s securities. The NLI Shareholders further certify and confirm that they have not “tipped” any related parties nor third parties regarding the transactions contemplated herein, and/or advised any parties to purchase shares of the Company’s securities in the marketplace.
