6.1. JMJP agrees that it will timely take all steps necessary to complete the Transactions to include, without limitation, causing audited financial statements to be prepared in proper form for JMJP; obtaining consents of the Board of Directors and the shareholders of JMJP, as required; causing all necessary documents to be properly and timely prepared, executed, approved or ratified, and filed, as appropriate; making timely and fully all required payments related to the registration and listing of the Reporting Company’s securities for public trading, including filing fees; and timely taking all other actions reasonably required of it to complete the Transactions.

8. Actions and Understandings following the Business Combination.
8.1. JMJP understands the obligations and responsibilities that will arise in regard to its becoming a reporting company and the trading of its securities in the public market. JMJP understands that in order to achieve the greatest market interest in its securities it, its officers and its directors, all or some, will be required to continuously interact with the financial community. This interaction will include, without limitation, timely filing of reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including audited financial statements; annual reports to shareholders and shareholder meetings; issuing periodic press releases; and meetings and discussions with existing and prospective brokers, market makers, investment bankers and institutions.
8.2. JMJP understands that the completion of the Transactions will not, in itself, result in capital investment in the Reporting Company. The public status of the Reporting Company and its introduction to market makers and others in the financial community may result in investment interest. However, investment interest will depend upon the success of the Reporting Company, market conditions and other factors over which neither Tiber Creek nor its affiliates have any control.
8.3. JMJP understands that the ultimate judgement of the financial community of the investment merits of the Reporting Company will depend upon the Reporting Company’s ability to successfully carry out its business plans and operations, to operate at a profit and similar business considerations. JMJP represents in good faith that it currently has no reason to believe that it will not be able to complete the Transactions and to achieve its business objectives.
8.4. JMJP understands that the first trading in the Reporting Company’s securities may be limited, and that to increase the amount, depth and market price of its securities will require both time and effort by the Reporting Company to develop relations with market makers and to create strong and stable trading of the Reporting Company’s securities.
9. Compliance with Securities Law.

9.1. JMJP and its affiliates will need to furnish all information and documents concerning it and its affiliates required for the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement by the Reporting Company which information must be complete and accurate and not contain any material misstatement or omit any material information.

The Reporting Company must at all times observe and comply with Federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations incident to the issuance and trading of its securities and must take all steps reasonably required within its control to prohibit any persons, whether or not affiliated with the Reporting Company, from engaging in any transactions in contravention of such laws, rules and regulations.

9.3.

9.4. The Reporting Company should not issue any securities to any person for the promotion or maintenance of a trading market in the Reporting Company’s securities without first receiving an opinion of qualified counsel that such issuance will be in accord with securities laws, rules and regulations and should not, directly or indirectly, receive from such persons any capital by loan, investment or otherwise resulting from the sale or pledge of such securities.
