Section
5.4 Securities Representations.

 

(a)
Investment Purposes. Each Seller is acquiring the Blue Star Shares for its own account as principal, not as a nominee or agent,
for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or for, resale, distribution or fractionalization thereof in whole or in part in
any transactions that would be in violation of the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue-sky” laws. No other Person
has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in, and such Seller does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with
any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third party, with respect to, the Blue Star Shares or any
part thereof that would be in violation of the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue-sky” laws or other applicable
Law.

No Obligation to Register Blue Star Shares. Each Seller understands that the Purchaser is under no obligation to register the
Blue Star Shares under the Securities Act, or to assist such Seller in complying with the Securities Act or the securities laws of any
state of the United States or of any foreign jurisdiction. Such Seller understands that the Blue Star Shares must be held indefinitely
unless the sale thereof is subsequently registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or exemptions from such
registration are available. All certificates evidencing the Blue Star Shares will bear a legend stating that the Blue Star Shares have
not been registered under the Securities Act or state securities laws and they may not be transferred or resold unless they are registered
under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or exempt therefrom.

 

(d)

securities, taxation, investments and other business matters as to evaluate investments of the kind described in this Agreement. By reason
of the business and financial experience of such Seller or its professional advisor, such Seller can protect its own interests in connection

    	14

     

    

 

(e)
Exemption from Registration. Each Seller acknowledges its understanding that the offering and sale of the Blue Star Shares is
intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. In furtherance thereof, in addition to the other representations and
warranties of such Seller made herein, such Seller further represents and warrants to and agrees with the Purchaser as follows:

 

(i)
Such Seller has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of its investment, has adequate means for providing for its current needs
and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity with respect to the Blue Star Shares;

Such Seller has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
the prospective investment in the Blue Star Shares;

 

(iii)

concerning the Purchaser and all other information to the extent the Purchaser possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable
effort or expense; and

 

(iv)
Such Seller has reviewed the documents filed by the Purchaser with the SEC and has also considered the uncertainties and difficulties
frequently encountered by companies such as the Purchaser.

 

(f)
No Reliance. Other than as set forth herein, each Seller is not relying upon any other information, representation or warranty
by the Purchaser or any officer, director, stockholder, agent or representative of the Purchaser in determining to invest in the Blue
Star Shares. Such Seller has consulted, to the extent deemed appropriate by such Seller, with such Seller’s own advisers as to
the financial, tax, legal and related matters concerning an investment in the Blue Star Shares and on that basis believes that its investment
in the Blue Star Shares is suitable and appropriate for such Seller.

 

(g)
No Governmental Review. Each Seller is aware that no federal or state agency has (i) made any finding or determination as to the
fairness of this investment, (ii) made any recommendation or endorsement of the Blue Star Shares or the Purchaser, or (iii) guaranteed
or insured any investment in the Blue Star Shares or any investment made by the Purchaser.

 

Section
5.5 Full Disclosure. No representation or warranty of any Seller in this Agreement omits to state a material fact necessary to
make the statements herein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. There is no fact known to a Seller
that Materially Adversely affects or, as far as can be reasonably foreseen, materially threatens, the assets, business, prospects, financial
condition, or results of operations of the Company that has not been set forth in this Agreement.
