** Corp Code 25102 (f) as follows:
25102. The following transactions are exempted from the provisions
of Section 25110:
....
(f) Any offer or sale of any security in a transaction (other
than an offer or sale to a pension or profit-sharing trust of
the issuer) that meets each of the following criteria:
(1) Sales of the security are not made to more than 35 persons,
including persons not in this state.
(2) All purchasers either have a preexisting personal or business
relationship with the offeror or any of its partners, officers,
directors or controlling persons, or managers (as appointed or
elected by the members) if the offeror is a limited liability
company, or by reason of their business or financial experience
or the business or financial experience of their professional
advisors
who are unaffiliated with and who are not compensated by the issuer
or any affiliate or selling agent of the issuer, directly or
indirectly, could be reasonably assumed to have the capacity to
protect their own interests in connection with the transaction.
