Seller reviewed the Company鈥檚 proposed ledger entry and the Schedule 3 chain-of-title table. To Seller鈥檚 knowledge, they accurately state Seller鈥檚 ownership and the Shares to be transferred.

2.4 Vesting and Repurchase Status

3.2 No Prior Transfer or Contract

Seller has not sold, assigned, transferred, offered, promised, lent, hedged or agreed to dispose of any interest in the Shares except under the Purchase Agreement.

3.4 Trust and Estate Matters

4.2 Required Notices and Approvals

Seller delivered every required transfer notice accurately and on time. Schedule 5 identifies each consent, waiver, election, expiration or approval necessary for Closing and the evidence obtained. Seller has not induced a waiver through a false or incomplete description of the transaction.

4.3 No Undisclosed Preferential Term

The price, consideration and material terms disclosed to ROFR and co-sale holders are the same as those in the final Purchase Agreement, except for differences expressly disclosed and approved on Schedule 5. Seller will not receive an undisclosed payment or benefit from Purchaser or an Affiliate.

5.3 Lawful Resale Pathway

Seller has provided facts reasonably requested by counsel to evaluate the contemplated resale pathway, including acquisition date, payment status, Affiliate status, Company reporting status, prior sales and manner of sale. Seller understands this Certificate is not a legal opinion and that counsel, not Seller, must determine whether an exemption or safe harbor is available.

5.4 Information Duties and Trading Policy

Seller is not making the sale in breach of a duty of trust or confidence, a confidentiality agreement, an insider-trading or secondary-liquidity policy, or a Company blackout. Seller disclosed any current or former service relationship and any material nonpublic information issue to counsel and followed the Company-approved information process.

5.5 Sanctions and Source of Proceeds

Seller is not a sanctioned person, is not acting for a sanctioned person, and will not direct proceeds to a prohibited person or jurisdiction. Seller will provide customary identity and tax documentation to the closing agent.

6. Taxes and Reporting

6.2 Tax Documentation

Seller delivered a properly completed [FORM W-9 / APPLICABLE FORM W-8 / OTHER] and will promptly update inaccurate information. Seller鈥檚 address and residency are stated on Schedule 1.

7.3 Closing Bring-Down

Seller shall notify Purchaser and the Company before release of funds if a certification becomes inaccurate. Acceptance of funds without notice constitutes a bring-down of this Certificate at Closing, except for a matter expressly updated in a signed supplement accepted by Purchaser and the Company.

8. Reliance and Survival

Purchaser, the Company, their counsel, the transfer agent and the escrow agent may rely on this Certificate for the limited purposes of the Closing, without being required to investigate facts uniquely within Seller鈥檚 knowledge. The certifications survive Closing for [SURVIVAL PERIOD], except title, authority, broker, tax and fraud-related matters survive for [PERIOD OR APPLICABLE LIMITATION], as conformed to the Purchase Agreement. This Certificate does not expand a negotiated limitation of liability unless expressly stated.

9. Knowledge Standard

For this Certificate, 鈥淪eller鈥檚 knowledge鈥� means [ACTUAL KNOWLEDGE AFTER REASONABLE INQUIRY OF THE PERSONS LISTED ON SCHEDULE 8]. Counsel must tailor this definition for an individual, entity, trust or estate; no unidentified knowledge group should remain.

10. Miscellaneous

This Certificate is governed by the same law and dispute provisions as the Purchase Agreement. It may be signed electronically and in counterparts. An amendment or qualification is effective only if written, specifically identified and accepted by Purchaser and the Company before Closing. If this Certificate conflicts with the Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Agreement controls as to remedies and allocation of risk, while this Certificate controls as the factual certification delivered at Closing.
