Except for matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Parent and each Subsidiary have filed all necessary federal, state and foreign income and franchise tax returns and has paid or accrued all taxes shown as due thereon, and the Parent has no knowledge of a tax deficiency which has been asserted or threatened against the Parent or any Subsidiary.
(x) Foreign Corrupt Practices. None of the Parent, any Subsidiary or, to the knowledge of the Parent, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Parent or any Subsidiary, has: (i) directly or indirectly, used any funds for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds, (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Parent (or made by any person acting on its behalf of which the Parent is aware) which is in violation of law or (iv) violated in any material respect any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

(z) Indebtedness. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to, or liable under (x) any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $25,000 (other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), or (y) any guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the Parent’s balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business.

(aa) Internal Controls. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Parent is in compliance with the provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 currently applicable to the Parent. The Parent and each Subsidiary maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Parent has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Parent and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Parent, including the Subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Parent’s most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Parent's certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Parent's controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Parent presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Parent's internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 308 of Regulation S-K) or, to the Parent's knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Parent's internal controls. The Parent maintains and will continue to maintain a standard system of accounting established and administered in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act.
(bb) OFAC. None of the Parent, any Subsidiary or, to the knowledge of the Parent, any director, officer, agent, employee or Affiliate of the Parent is currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department (“OFAC”); and the Parent will not, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of the offering, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other person, for the purpose of financing the activities of any person currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.
(cc) Investment Company. The Parent is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Notes, will not be or be an affiliate of, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(dd) Full Disclosure. All of the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Parent to Purchaser regarding the Parent, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(f) There are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending against Purchaser or Purchaser’s assets before any court or governmental agency (nor, to Purchaser’s knowledge, is there any threat thereof) which would impair in any way Purchaser’s ability to enter into and fully perform Purchaser’s commitments and obligations under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
