The Investor will promptly notify the Company of any material fact or circumstance that would cause any of the foregoing representations to be untrue, incomplete, or misleading.
(e) Restricted Securities.

Prior to the time that the Investor was first contacted by the Company or either of the Agents such Investor had a pre-existing and substantial relationship with the Company or one of the Agents. The Investor will not issue any press release or other public statement with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company. Other than to other parties to this Agreement, the Investor has maintained and will continue to maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to Investor in connection with this transaction, including the existence and terms of this transaction.
