You also represent that you have not entered into such an agreement, arrangement or understanding prior to the date hereof. | 
| 9. | No Representation of Accuracy. Although the Company will endeavor to include in the Evaluation Material information which it believes to be relevant for the purpose of your | 
4
| investigation, you understand that none of the Company or its Representatives have made or make any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the Evaluation Material. You agree that none of the Company or its Representatives shall have any liability to you or any of your Representatives resulting from the selection, use or content of the Evaluation Material by you or your Affiliates or Representatives. |

This letter agreement shall be binding upon the parties, their successors and their permitted assigns. |
