The Lender understands that the Note is “restricted security” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Lender must hold the Note indefinitely unless it is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Lender acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Note for resale. The Lender 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 Note, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Lender’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

4.5 No Public Market.

The Lender understands that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company, that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for any of the Company’s securities.
