Prior to the time of purchase of any Offered Shares, Participant received a copy of the Memorandum. Participant has carefully reviewed this Agreement, the Memorandum, including all exhibits thereto, all reports, schedules, forms statements and other documents required to be filed thereunder and the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the foregoing materials, together with the Agreement and the Memorandum, and any documents which may have been made available upon request as reflected therein, collectively referred to as the “Public Information”). 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 Memorandum and the Public Information, on which Participant has relied upon in deciding to invest in the Offered Shares, including without limitation, any information with respect to future operations of the Company or the economic returns which may accrue as a result of the purchase of the Offered Shares.
Exhibit A-3
(b)
Participant acknowledges that Participant has not seen, received, been presented with, or been solicited by any leaflet, public promotional meeting, newspaper or magazine article or advertisement, radio or television advertisement, or any other form of advertising or general solicitation with respect to the Offered Shares.
(c)
The Offered Shares are being purchased for Participant’s own account for long-term investment and not with a view to immediately re-sell the Offered Shares. No other person or entity will have any direct or indirect beneficial interest in, or right to, the Offered Shares. Participant or its agents or investment advisors have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that will enable Participant to utilize the information made available to it in connection with the purchase of the Offered Shares to evaluate the merits and risks thereof and to make an informed investment decision.
(d)
The Participant hereby acknowledges that the Offering has not been reviewed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) nor any state regulatory authority since the Offering is intended to be exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act, pursuant to Regulation D.

(f)
Participant represents that Participant meets the criteria for participation because: (i) Participant has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company or one or more of its partners, officers, directors or controlling persons; or (ii) by reason of Participant’s business or financial experience, or by reason of the business or financial experience of its financial advisors who are unaffiliated with, and are not compensated, directly or indirectly, by the Company or any affiliate or selling agent of the Company, Participant is capable of evaluating the risk and merits of an investment in the Offered Shares and of protecting its own interests.

(i)
Participant understands that the Offered Shares are illiquid, and until registered with the Securities Exchange Commission, or an exemption from registration becomes available, cannot be readily sold as there will not be a public market for them, and that Participant may not be able to sell or dispose of the Offered Shares, or to utilize the Offered Shares as collateral for a loan. Participant must not purchase the Offered Shares 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 Offered Shares, combined with other investments of Participant, is reasonable in relation to its net worth.

(k)
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 Offered Shares, and have done so, to the extent Participant considers necessary.
(l)
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, managers, 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.
