The Purchaser is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or to purchase the Security in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, the Purchaser is assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein.
