INVESTORS ARE STRONGLY ADVISED TO CONFIRM THE ACCURACY OF ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM THIS SITE PRIOR TO MAKING ANY INVESTMENT DECISION.

OTC Risk Warnings

Because many securities traded Over-The-Counter (OTC) are relatively illiquid, or “thinly traded,” which tends to increase volatility in market prices, an investment in an OTC security involves a high degree of risk. These speculative and illiquid securities are often difficult for investors to buy or sell without significantly affecting the quoted price. It should be noted that the liquidation of a position in an OTC security may not even be possible within a reasonable period of time.

Dependable information regarding issuers of OTC securities, their prospects, or the risks associated with the business of any particular issuer or an investment in the issuer’s securities may not be available. For this reason, it may be difficult to properly value an investment in an OTC security or accurately determine the risks involved with investing in such a security. For more information about investing in microcap securities, please read the content on the SEC’s website, including the SEC’s investor publication titled “Microcap Stock: A Guide for Investors” available at https://www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/microcapstock.htm

Issuers of OTC securities quoted on the OTC Link system are not required to provide any kind of information to investors. While many issuers register OTC securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and regularly provide reports to investors in connection with such registration, they are not required to continue such registration or regularly provide such reports because their securities are quoted on OTC Link. Securities may continue to be quoted on the OTC Link system if issuers are delinquent in their reporting obligation to the SEC or other federal or state regulatory agencies. Quotation of a security on the OTC Link system or the Yellow Sheets does not in itself create any ongoing filing or reporting obligations with the SEC for any issuer. In fact, issuers may not even be aware that their securities are quoted on the OTC Link system.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be liable in respect of any Claims that a court of competent jurisdiction has judicially determined by final judgment (and the time to appeal has expired or the last right of appeal has been denied) which resulted solely or in part from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Party or the violation of any securities laws or regulations by an Indemnified Party. The Company further agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of IRP settle compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which IRP and any Indemnified Party may seek indemnification hereunder (regardless of whether IRP or any Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such Proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of IRP and each other Indemnified Party hereunder from all liability arising out of such proceeding.

In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in any case in which (i) an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to an Engagement Agreement but it is judicially determined by the entry of a final judgment decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the time to appeal has expired or the last right of appeal has been denied) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, or (ii) contribution may be required by the Company in circumstances for which an Indemnified party is otherwise entitled to indemnification under the Agreement, then, and in each such case, the Company shall contribute to the aggregate losses, Claims, damages and/or liabilities in an amount equal to the amount for which indemnification was held unavailable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, IRP shall not be obligated to contribute any amount hereunder that exceeds the amount of fees previously received by IRP pursuant to an Agreement.

The Company further agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connection with IRP’s engagement hereunder except for Claims that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by final judgment (and the time to appeal has expired or the last right of appeal has been denied) resulted solely or in part from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or the violation of any securities laws or regulations by an Indemnified Party. The indemnity, re imbursement and contribution obligations of the Company set forth herein shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Company or an Indemnified Party.

The indemnity, reimbursement and contribution provisions set forth herein shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any withdrawal, termination or consummation of or failure to initiate or consummate any Matter referred to herein, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any party hereto or any person controlling (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities act of 1933 as amended, or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) any party hereto, (iii) any termination or the completion or expiration of an Engagement Agreement with IRP and (iv) regardless of whether IRP shall or shall not be called upon to render any public relations advice, whether formal or informal, in the course of such engagement.

Compensation Disclosure

The IRP website provides readers with information regarding publicly traded companies that have retained IRP to provide advertising branding, marketing, news syndication and public relations services on their behalf. IRP receives compensation from the companies in the form of cash and/or securities in the companies. Such compensation, especially compensation in the form of securities, may create an actual or potential conflict of interest. In addition, to the extent that parties, including the companies discussed, investors or others, further disseminate content or other statements provided by IRP, such parties operate outside of IRP’s control and such further dissemination is without the permission and authority of IRP. Such further dissemination may not be accompanied by appropriate disclaimers or other disclosures, and IRP assumes no responsibility for and expressly disclaims responsibility for any such statements, omissions or dissemination.

Because IRP receives compensation for disseminating information, we may have a conflict of interest in terms of disseminating information about the companies that retain us. Readers should consider this in reaching their independent decision as to how to use the information contained in the IRP website.

It is the practice of IRP to sell all securities received as compensation upon the expiration of the applicable holding period as set forth generally in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 (Rule 144), notwithstanding the fact that IRP may be advertising or distributing materials on such securities and their issuers at the time of the sale of such securities. More generally, IRP may sell any securities that it holds at any time that it legally may do so, as it deems appropriate.

In addition, writers and editors who provide or review content contained on IRP’s website may buy, sell or maintain positions in securities of the companies discussed on IRP’s website. Such trading, which necessarily reflects an individual’s personal resources and financial condition, may be inconsistent with statements on IRP’s website. IRP assumes no responsibility for and expressly disclaims responsibility for any statements or omissions about compensation to all writers and editors who provide or review content.
