Any event or transaction which increases or creates a risk on the investments or on the securities covered by the registration; 14.1.2.

If the changes shall result in a derogation of the rights of existing security holders or purchasers of securities or, membership certificates who have paid a portion of the selling price, the Issuer may include in the above-mentioned publication an offer to rescind all transactions that have been completed for sale to date, without making any deduction pursuant to SRC Rule 14.2.4 and wait for thirty (30) days for the purchasers to respond to the rescission offer before initiating the amended offering; 14.2.4. If the conditions under SRC Rule 14.23 are present, the purchasers may, within thirty (30) days from the date of such notification, renounce their purchase of the said securities. Upon such renunciation, the Issuer, or any person acting on behalf of the Issuer in connection with the distribution of the said securities, shall, within ten (10) days from receipt of notification of such election, return the payments made by security holders or purchasers of securities, or membership certificates. Purchasers who decide not to renounce their purchase of securities shall be subject to the terms of the amended offering; and 14.2.5. In case of an increase in the volume or offering price of the securities to a level higher than the range previously disclosed by the Issuer, the amended registration statement or prospectus shall be accompanied by a filing fee based on the difference between the highest aggregate amount in relation to the previous range and the total amount based on the new volume or price. For amendments other than the offering price, the filing fee for the amended registration statement or prospectus shall be in such amount as the Commission may determine. 14.3. If the Commission learns that the prospectus is on its face incomplete or inaccurate in any material respect, or there is a material omission in it, it may require Issuer to comply with SRC Rule 14.2, or suspend or revoke its registration under Section 13 or 15 of the Code. 14.4. If non-material information stated in the prospectus changes, the Issuer shall file a report on SEC Form 17-C on the said changes prior to making any amendments in the registration statement. The proposed amendments shall be considered part of the original disclosure unless the Commission, within twenty (20) business days from receipt of such report, requires the Issuer to explain such changes. 14.5. Every amendment of a registration statement shall be signed by the persons specified in Section 12.4 of the Code or by any executive officer duly authorized by the board of directors. The final registration statement and prospectus shall, however, be signed by all the required signatories under Section 12.4 of the Code. 14.6. The Issuer shall file with the Commission one (1) complete, unmarked copy of every amendment, including exhibits and other papers and documents filed as part of the amendment and one (1) additional copy, marked to indicate clearly and precisely, by underlining or in some other appropriate manner, the changes effected in the registration statement by the amendment.

The Commission may, taking into consideration the interests of the investors, order the publication in a national newspaper of general circulation of its order rendering effective the amended registration statement. 15.1. If, at any time, the information contained in the registration statement filed is or has become misleading, incorrect, inadequate or incomplete in any material respect, or the sale or offering for sale of the security registered thereunder may work or tend to work a fraud, the Commission may require from the issuer such further information as may in its judgment be necessary to enable the Commission to ascertain whether the registration of such security should be revoked on any ground specified in the Code. The Commission may also suspend the right to sell and offer for sale such security pending further investigation, by entering an order specifying the grounds for such action, and by notifying the issuer, underwriter, dealer or broker known as participating in such offering. 15.2. The refusal to furnish information required by the Commission may be a ground for the issuance of an order of suspension pursuant to Subsection 15.1. Upon the issuance of any such order and notification to the issuer, underwriter, dealer or broker known as participating in such offering, no further offer or sale of any such security shall be made until the same is lifted or set aside by the Commission. Otherwise, such sale shall be void. 15.3. Upon issuance of an order of suspension, the Commission shall conduct a hearing. If the Commission determines that the sale of any security should be revoked, it shall issue an order prohibiting sale of such security. Until the issuance of a final order, the suspension of the right to sell, though binding upon the persons notified thereof, shall be deemed confidential, and shall not be published, unless it shall appear that the order of suspension has been violated after notice. If, however, the Commission finds that the sale of the security will neither be fraudulent nor result in fraud, it shall forthwith issue an order revoking the order of suspension, and such security shall be restored to its status as a registered security as of the date of such order of suspension.
