(d) The undersigned understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or to assist the undersigned in complying with the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States or of any foreign jurisdiction.

In furtherance thereof, in addition to the other representations and warranties of the undersigned made herein, the undersigned further represents and warrants to and agrees with the Company and its affiliates as follows:

(i)

The undersigned realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if, notwithstanding such representations, the undersigned has in mind merely acquiring the Securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, or for a market rise, or for sale if the market does not rise. The undersigned does not have any such intention;

(ii)
