Representations and Warranties Relating to the Shares

 

(a)        EGM is acquiring the Shares for investment for its own account and
not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
thereof. EGM understands and acknowledges that the Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”),
or any state or foreign securities laws, by reason of a specific exemption from
the registration provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state and
foreign securities laws, which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of the investment intent as expressed herein. EGM further represents that
it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any
person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participation to any third person
with respect to any of the Shares.

 

(b)        EGM understands that an active public market for the Company's common
stock may not now exist and that there may never be an active public market for
the Shares acquired under this Agreement.

 

(c)        Neither EGM nor, to its knowledge, any person or entity controlling,
controlled by or under common control with it, nor any person or entity having a
beneficial interest in it, nor any person on whose behalf EGM is acting: (i) is
a person listed in the Annex to Executive Order No. 13224 (2001) issued by the
President of the United States (Executive Order Blocking Property and
Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support
Terrorism); (ii) is named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and
Blocked Persons maintained by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control; (iii)
is a non-U.S. shell bank or is providing banking services indirectly to a
non-U.S. shell bank; (iv) is a senior non-U.S. political figure or an immediate
family member or close associate of such figure; or (v) is otherwise prohibited
from investing in the Company pursuant to applicable U.S. anti-money laundering,
anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules or orders (categories
(i) through (v), each a "Prohibited Seller"). EGM agrees to provide the Company,
promptly upon request, all information that is reasonably necessary or
appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist
and asset control laws, regulations, rules and orders. EGM consents to the
disclosure to U.S. regulators and law enforcement authorities by the Company and
its affiliates and agents of such information about such member as is reasonably
necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money-laundering,
anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules and orders. EGM
acknowledges that if, following its investment in the Shares, the Company
reasonably believes that such member is a Prohibited Seller or is otherwise
engaged in suspicious activity or refuses to promptly provide information that
the Company requests, the Company has the right or may be obligated to prohibit
additional investments, segregate the assets constituting the investment in
accordance with applicable regulations or immediately require such member to
transfer the Shares. EGM further acknowledges that such member will have no
claim against the Company or any of its affiliates or agents for any form of
damages as a result of any of the foregoing actions.

(d)        EGM or its duly authorized representative realizes that because of
the inherently speculative nature of business activities and investments of the
kind contemplated by the Company, the Company's financial position and results
of operations may be expected to fluctuate from period to period and will,
generally, involve a high degree of financial and market risk that can result in
substantial or, at times, even total loss of the value of the Shares.

 

Notices. All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be validly given,
made or served if in writing and delivered in person or when received by
facsimile transmission, or five days after being sent first class certified or
registered mail, postage prepaid, or one day after being sent by a nationally
recognized overnight carrier to the party for whom intended at the address set
forth after each parties signatures.

 

Severability. If any clause or provision of the Agreement is illegal, invalid or
unenforceable under applicable present or future laws effective during the Term,
the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected. In lieu of each clause or
provision of this Agreement, that is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, there
shall be added as a part of this Agreement a clause or provision as nearly
identical as may be possible, and as may be legal, valid, and enforceable. In
the event that any clause or provision of this Agreement is illegal, invalid, or
unenforceable as aforesaid and the effect of such illegality, invalidity, or
unenforceability is that either party no longer has the substantial benefit of
its bargain under this Agreement and a clause or provision as nearly identical
as may be possible cannot be added, then, in such event, such party may in its
discretion cancel and terminate this Agreement provided such party exercises
such right within a reasonable time after such occurrence.
