5. Representations and Warranties of the Lender. In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Lender hereby represents and warrants to the Borrower that:

5.1 Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance of this Note have been duly authorized by all necessary action by or on behalf of the Lender.

5.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Lender acknowledges that this Note is issued to the Lender in reliance upon the Lender’s representation to the Borrower that the Note will be acquired for investment for the Lender’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Lender has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Note, the Lender further represents that the Lender does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participations in this Note to such person or entity.

5.3 Disclosure of Information. The Lender acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review this Note and the publicly filed reports of the Issuer with the SEC and has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire this Note. The Lender further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Borrower regarding the terms and conditions of this Note, the business and future prospects of the Borrower and the financial condition of the Borrower. Except for the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in Section 4, the Lender has not relied upon representations concerning the Borrower or this Note, written or oral, in making the decision to acquire this Note. Except for the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in Section 4, no representations or warranties, written or oral, have been made to the Lender, or to the Lender’s advisors, by the management of the Borrower with respect to the business or future prospects of the Borrower, the financial condition of the Borrower and/or the economic, tax or any other aspects or consequences of the acquisition of this Note.

5.6 Restricted Securities. The Lender understands that this Note is characterized as a “restricted security” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as it is being acquired from the Borrower in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Act, only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection the Lender represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 as promulgated by the SEC under the Act, as presently in effect (“Rule 144”), and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.
