The Advisor does not have any present intention to transfer the Compensation Shares to any other party. The Advisor understands that the exemption from registration under the Securities Act for the issuance of the Compensation Shares depends in part upon the bona fide nature of Advisor’s investment intent as expressed herein. The Advisor understands that the Compensation Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Advisor must hold the Compensation Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Advisor acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Compensation Shares for resale. The Advisor further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Compensation Shares, and requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Advisor’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy. The Advisor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to make it capable of evaluating the risks of the prospective investment and to make an informed investment decision. The Advisor is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Compensation Shares. The Advisor is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 ofRegulation D ofthe Securities Act.
