None of the commitments under the Term Sheets have been withdrawn, terminated or rescinded prior to the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company agrees and acknowledges that the Term Sheets are non-binding and indicative in nature, do not constitute agreements, solicitations of offers, or any commitment for capital. The Company further agrees and acknowledges that the Term Sheets are subject to contract in form and substance satisfactory to the applicable Transaction Investor, following completion of such Transaction Investor’s due diligence, compliance, internal approval processes and other conditions set forth in the applicable definitive agreements.
