The Purchaser acknowledges that it has been afforded the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Purchased Shares. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of the Purchaser or its representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of the Company’s representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents. The Purchaser acknowledges that it has not been provided with a prospectus, an offering memorandum or any other document in connection with its purchase of the Purchased Shares and the decision to purchase the Purchased Shares and execute this Agreement has not been based upon any verbal or written representation made by or on behalf of the Company (except for the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in the Transaction Documents) or any employee or agent of the Company and has been based entirely upon this Agreement and information contained in the SEC Reports and Canadian Filings.
(k)Independent Investment Decision. The Purchaser has independently evaluated the merits of its decision to purchase the Purchased Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents. The Purchaser understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchaser in connection with the purchase of the Purchased Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. The Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Purchased Shares.
(l)Reliance on Exemptions. The Purchaser understands that the Purchased Shares are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the prospectus and registration requirements of Canadian and United States federal, provincial and state securities laws, and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire the Purchased Shares.

To the knowledge of the Purchaser, the funds representing the Purchase Price advanced by the Purchaser (or on behalf of the Purchaser) are not proceeds of crime as defined in the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) (the “PCMLTFA”). To the best of the Purchaser’s knowledge, none of the purchase funds to be provided by the Purchaser (i) have been or will be derived from or related to any activity that is deemed criminal under the laws of Canada or any other applicable jurisdiction, or (ii) are being tendered on behalf of a Person or entity (A) with whom the Company would be prohibited from dealing with under applicable money laundering, terrorist financing, economic sanctions, criminal or other similar laws or regulations or (B) who has not been identified to the Purchaser. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company may in the future be required to disclose the Purchaser’s name and other information relating to this Agreement and the Purchaser’s purchase hereunder on a confidential basis pursuant to the PCMLTFA or similar laws or regulations, and the Company shall notify the Purchaser if the Company is required to provide such information concerning the Purchaser.
