3.            Section 4.10 of the Subscription Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

4.10.           “Lock-Up” Agreement.  The Subscriber agrees that, during the period from the date hereof until that date that is fifteen (15) months following the date on which the Company's Common Stock begins to be listed or quoted on either the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex, NASDAQ Global Market, NASDAQ Capital Market or the OTC Bulletin Board (the "Listing Date") that, it, he or she shall not, directly or indirectly sell, assign, exchange, distribute, offer to sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short sale), hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Shares of the Company held by it, him or her and purchased further to this Subscription Agreement, at any time during such period, except that one-tenth (1/10) of the Shares acquired hereunder shall be automatically released from this lock-up provision on the date that is ninety (90) days after the Listing Date (the “Initial Release Date”) and thereafter the Shares will be released every thirty (30) days after the Initial Release Date on a pro rata basis over the next nine months, provided that the Subscriber provide written confirmation (the “Confirmation”) to WestPark and the Company that he, she or it (i) is and has at all times been in compliance with the provisions of Section 2.20 herein and (ii) does not wish to have the Shares subject to such partial release to continue to bear the Lock-Up Legend (as defined below) , it being understood and agreed that the failure to provide such written confirmation shall be sufficient grounds to allow WestPark to decline, in its sole discretion, to allow the automatic release of such Shares until the expiration in totality of the referenced lock-up.  WestPark Capital, Inc., in its discretion, may release some or all the Shares earlier than the schedule set forth in this section provided however that any such earlier release shall be made pro rata with respect to all shares sold in the Offering.  In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to and place restrictive legends with the Company’s Transfer Agent (the “Transfer Agent”) on the certificates evidencing the Shares of the Company (the “Lock-Up Legend”), and the Subscriber agrees to further execute a lock-up agreement which encompasses the terms of this Section 4.10, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, the Lock-Up Legend being set forth and defined in such agreement.

4.           The fourth (4th) full paragraph of the Lock-Up Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

One-tenth (1/10) of the undersigned’s shares of the Company’s Common Stock acquired in the Private Offering shall be released from the Lock-Up Restrictions on the date that is ninety (90) days subsequent to the date on which the Company’s Common Stock begins to be listed or quoted on either the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE AMEX, NASDAQ Global Market, NASDAQ Capital Market or the OTC Bulletin Board (the “Initial Release Date”), and the undersigned’s shares will automatically be released from the Lock-Up Restrictions every thirty (30) days after the Initial Release Date on a pro rata basis over the next nine months, until all of the shares are released from the Lock-Up Restrictions, provided that, the undersigned provide written confirmation to WestPark and the Company that he/she/it (i) is and has at all times been in compliance with the provisions of Section 2.20 of the Subscription Agreement by and among the Company, Attainment Holdings Limited and the undersigned, and (ii) does not wish to have the shares subject to such partial release to continue to bear the Lock-Up Legend (as defined below) it being understood and agreed that the failure to provide such written confirmation shall be sufficient grounds to allow WestPark to decline, in its sole discretion, to allow the automatic release of such shares until the expiration in totality of the referenced lock-up.  WestPark Capital, Inc., in its discretion, may release from the Lock-up Restrictions some or all the undersigned’s shares of the Company’s Common Stock earlier than the schedule set forth in this Lock-up Agreement.
