Representations and Warranties of ARBK
. ARBK represents and warrants as
follows:
(a)
Investment Purpose . As
of the date hereof, ARBK is purchasing the Preferred Shares and the
shares of GRWW Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Preferred Shares (the “Conversion Shares”) (the
Preferred Shares and the Conversion Shares, the
“Securities”) for its own account and not with a
present view towards the public sale or distribution thereof,
except pursuant to sales registered or exempted from registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933
Act”); provided
, however
, that by making the representations herein, ARBK
does not agree to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or
other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the
Securities at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a
registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act. ARBK
recognizes and understands the current articles of incorporation of
GRWW do not authorize a sufficient number of shares of GRWW Common
Stock to allow it to convert any of the Preferred Shares, which can
only be authorized by holders of GRWW Common Stock in a meeting of
shareholders that is not currently scheduled. Accordingly, ARBK
recognizes that until this occurs, it has no right to convert any
of the Preferred Shares to GRWW Common Stock.
(b)
Accredited Investor Status . ARBK is an “accredited investor” as that term is
defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D (an “Accredited
Investor”).
(c)
Reliance on Exemptions . ARBK understands that the Securities are being offered and
sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions from the
registration requirements of United States federal and state
securities laws and that GRWW is relying upon the truth and
accuracy of, and ARBK’s compliance with, the representations,
warrant
