// Mark imported privae keys as exportable.
$exportable = 1;

// If userProtected is 1, the user is to be notified through a dialog box or other method when certain attempts to use this key are made. 
$userProtected = 0;

// If machineKeyset is 1, the private keys are stored under the local computer and not under the current user.

// If allowExport is 1, then the imported key can later be exported back to a PFX.
// (It also allows for applications to directly access the private key material.)
