The representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of the Underwriting Agreement, and only as of the specified dates provided therein. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Underwriting Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties thereto, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties rather than establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors.
