RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Shareholder is the registered owner of the number of shares of Common Stock set forth on the signature page hereof that were issued pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement (the "Shares"); and

WHEREAS, as a material inducement to the Company to register the register the Shares for public resale under the Securities Act, the Company and the Shareholder have agreed to enter into this Agreement and to restrict the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, hypothecation or alienation of the Shares, all on the terms set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, the Shareholder may transfer its Shares to its affiliates or associates (individually, a “Transferee”), at such value as determined by the Shareholder to be appropriate, provided that the Transferee (or the legal representative of the Transferee) executes an agreement to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement in connection with the resale of any Shares, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to and to be executed by the Company. Transfers pursuant to this Section 1 shall not be subject to the requirements of Section 2. Upon completion of a transfer under this Section 1, the Transferee shall be a “Shareholder” under this Agreement for all purposes.
 
 2. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, and except as the Shareholder may be otherwise restricted from selling Shares under applicable United States Federal or state securities laws, rules and regulations, the Shareholder may only sell Shares subject to the following conditions:

2.1. For the six months after the effective date of the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") that registers the Shares under the Securities Act, the Shareholder may not sell, pledge, hypothecate, transfer, assign or in any other manner dispose of the Shares.

2.2. Upon the expiration of the six-month period described in subsection 2.1, above, for a period of thirty six months thereafter, the Shareholder shall be allowed to sell 1/36th of the Shares during each month thereafter. Upon the expiration of said thirty-six month period, the Shareholder shall be entitled to sell or otherwise dispose of its Shares in any manner it sees fit.
 
 
 

 
 
2.3. All Shares shall be sold on a non-cumulative basis, meaning that if the Shareholder did not sell all of the Shares it was entitled to sell during a particular month, it may not cumulate the unsold portion of that month's allotment to the next month's allotment, and so forth. Shareholder agrees that all sales will be made at no less than the best “asked” prices, and no sales will be made at the “bid” prices for the Shares.

2.4. Except as otherwise provided herein, all Shares shall be sold in “broker’s transactions” and the Shareholder will comply with the “manner of sale” requirements as those terms are defined in Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission during the Lock-Up/Leak-Out Period.

2.5. An appropriate legend describing this Agreement shall be imprinted on each stock certificate representing the Shares, and the transfer records of the Company’s transfer agent shall reflect such appropriate restrictions.

2.6. Shareholder agrees that it will not engage in any short selling of the Common Stock during the term of this Agreement.
 
3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, waive any of the conditions or restrictions contained herein to increase the liquidity of the Common Stock or if such waiver would otherwise be in the best interests of the development of the trading market for the Common Stock. Upon issuance of such waiver the Shareholder shall be promptly notified of the waiver given and the time frame during which such waiver shall be effective. Any waiver shall be specific to the period described in the notice.

4. In the event of: (a) a completed tender offer to purchase all or substantially all of the Company’s issued and outstanding securities or (b) a merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company with or into an unaffiliated entity that results in a subsequent change in control of the Company, then this Agreement shall terminate as of the closing of such event and the Shares restricted pursuant hereto shall be released from such restrictions.

5. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other agreements between the parties, the Shareholder shall be entitled to exercise its beneficial rights of ownership of its Shares, including the right to vote its Shares for any and all purposes.

6. The number of Shares that may be sold during any month by the Shareholder shall be appropriately adjusted should the Company declare a dividend or distribution, undergo a forward split or a reverse split or otherwise reclassify its class of Common Stock.

7. If the Shareholder fails to fully adhere to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, then it shall be liable to the Company for any damages suffered by reason of any such breach of the terms and conditions hereof. Shareholder agrees that in the event of a breach of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement by it, that in addition to all other remedies that may be available in law or in equity to the Company, a preliminary and permanent injunction, without bond or surety, and an order of a court requiring Shareholder to cease and desist from violating the terms and conditions of this Agreement and specifically requiring Shareholder to perform its obligations hereunder is fair and reasonable by reason of the inability of the parties to this Agreement to presently determine the type, extent or amount of damages that the Company may suffer as a result of any breach or continuation thereof by Shareholder. If the Company prevails in an action to enforce this Agreement, it shall be entitled to receive from a the Shareholder reimbursement for all fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith, including reasonable fees of counsel.
