Section 5.02 Banji Ownership of Shares. Banji represents and warrants to Crisp that:

 

(a) Banji is the sole legal and beneficial owner of the Repurchased Shares and has, and Crisp will acquire pursuant to this Agreement, good and valid title to the Repurchased Shares, free and clear of any Encumbrances (other than restrictions under applicable securities laws);

 

(b) Banji has not granted any option, warrant, conversion right, proxy, voting agreement, or other right with respect to the Repurchased Shares that would conflict with this Agreement;

 

(c) Banji is not an “affiliate” of Crisp within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and is not a director or executive officer of Crisp; and

Section 5.03 Securities Law; Information. Banji acknowledges and agrees that:

 

(a) Crisp and/or its Affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) now possess and/or may have access to and may hereafter possess and/or have access to certain non-public information concerning Crisp, its Affiliates and/or the Repurchased Shares (the “Non-Public Information”) which may constitute material information with respect to the foregoing;

 

(b) Crisp is relying on this Agreement and would not enter into a transaction to purchase the Repurchased Shares from Banji absent this Agreement. Banji agrees to sell the Repurchased Shares to Crisp notwithstanding that it is aware that such Non-Public Information exists and that Crisp has not disclosed all Non-Public Information to it. Banji acknowledges that it is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and a sophisticated seller with respect to the purchase and sale of securities such as the Repurchased Shares and that Crisp has no obligation to Banji to disclose such Non-Public Information and that if the Non-Public Information were fully disclosed to Banji, the Non-Public Information could foreseeably affect Banji’s willingness to enter into this Agreement and the price that Banji would be willing to accept to sell the Repurchased Shares.

Banji is experienced, sophisticated and knowledgeable in the trading of securities and other instruments of private and public companies and understands the disadvantage to which it may be subject on account of any disparity of the access to, and possession of, such Non-Public Information between the Parties. Banji has conducted an independent evaluation of the Repurchased Shares to determine whether to enter into this Agreement and, notwithstanding the absence of access by Banji to the Non-Public Information known by Crisp, Banji is desirous of entering into this Agreement and consummating the transactions contemplated hereby. Banji, because of, among other things, its business and financial experience, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and of protecting its own interests in connection with this Agreement.

 

 

 

 

(d) Banji is fully aware that, in agreeing to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Crisp is relying upon the truth and accuracy of Banji’s representations and warranties set forth herein.
