It is understood by both parties that a mutual press release may be issued upon the execution of the LOI and the following execution of any definitive agreements.

Lion has had full access to all the information Lion considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Star Common Stock to be acquired under the Definitive Agreement.

Lion understands that its investment in the Star Common Stock involves a high degree of risk and is able to afford a complete loss of such investment. Lion has sought such accounting, legal, and tax advice as he has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision in respect of its acquisition of the Star Common Stock.
  
 8. No Governmental Review. Lion understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Star Common Stock or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Star Common Stock nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Star Common Stock. 
  
 9. Transfer or Resale. Lion understands: (i) the Star Common Stock has not been and are not being registered under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder, (B) Lion shall have delivered to Star an opinion of counsel, in a form reasonably acceptable to Star, to the effect that such Star Common Stock to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration, or (C) Lion provides Star with assurance reasonably acceptable to Star that such Star Common Stock can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A promulgated under the 1933 Act, as amended, (or a successor rule thereto) (collectively, “Rule 144”); (ii) any sale of the Star Common Stock made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of the Star Common Stock under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act) may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) thereunder; and (iii) neither of Star or any other person is under any obligation to register the Star Common Stock under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, Lion shall not sell his Star Common Stock unless they are registered in a filing for such purpose with the SEC (a “Filing”). Star agrees to undertake Filings, from time to time, as it deems in its sole discretion, are in the best interests of Star and its shareholders.
