executed by the Company based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Offered Securities under the securities or Blue Sky laws thereof or filed with the Commission or any securities association or securities exchange (each, an “Application”), (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Application a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or (iv) in connection with the acceptance of or the performance or non-performance of the Und erwriters obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to the extent that such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage arises from the sale of the Shares in the public offering to any person found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from the gross negligence and willful misconduct of the Underwriters.  This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.
 
(b) The Underwriters will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each director of the Company and each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Underwriters, but only insofar as losses, claims, liabilities, expenses or damages arise out of or are based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with information relating to the Underwriters furnished in writing to the Company by the Underwriters expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.  This indemnity agreemen t will be in addition to any liability that the Underwriters might otherwise have.  The Company acknowledges that, for all purposes under this Agreement: (i) the fourth to last paragraph under the heading “Plan of Distribution” in the Prospectus and (ii) the names of the Underwriters, constitute the only information relating to the Underwriters furnished in writing to the Company by the Underwriters expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus.
 
(c) Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 8 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Section 8, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provisions of this Section 8 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party.  If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its c ommencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying

 party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense.  The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that a conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified part y and the indemnifying party that would prevent the counsel selected by the indemnifying party from representing the indemnified party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (3) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties.  It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties.  All such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party promptly as they are incurred.  The Company will not, without the prior written consent of Grandview (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification has been sought hereunder (whether or not the Underwriters or any person who controls any of the Underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act is a party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Underwriters and each such controlling person from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.  An indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably with held, conditioned or delayed).
 
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 8 is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable from the Company or the Underwriters, the Company and the Underwriters will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, but after deducting any contribution received by the Company from persons other than the Underwriters such as persons who control the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, officers of the Company who signed the Reg istration Statement and directors of the Company, who also may be liable for contribution) to which the Company and the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on

 the one hand and the Underwriters on the other.  The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting Company expenses) received by the Company as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus bear to the fee received by the Underwriters hereunder.  If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other, with respect to the statements or omission s which resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations with respect to such offering.  Such relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 8(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein.  The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, for purpose of this Section 8(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), the Underwriters shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the fee received by it, and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  For purposes of this Section 8(d), any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to th e provisions hereof.  Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 8(d), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify will not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 8(d).  No party will be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

9. Termination.
 
(a) The obligations of the Underwriters under this Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the completion of the distribution of the Shares, by notice to the Company from Grandview, without liability on the part of the Underwriters to the Company if, prior to delivery and payment for the Shares, in the sole judgment of Grandview: (i) trading in the Common Stock of the Company shall have been suspended by the Commission or by NASDAQ Capital Market, or, if the Common Stock is not listed on NASDAQ Capital Market, if trading shall have been suspended by the OTC Bulletin Board, (ii) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market shall have been suspended or limited or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on any of such exchange or additional material governmental restrictions, not in force on the date of this Agreement, shall have been imposed upon trading in securities generally by any of such exchange or by order of the Commission or any court or other governmental authority, (iii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities, or (iv) any material adverse change in the financial or securities markets in the United States or any outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis (including any material act of terrorism) shall have occurred, the effect of any of which is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of Grandview, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated by the Prospectus.
 
(b) If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to any of the provisions hereof, or if the sale of the Shares provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth herein is not satisfied, in each case because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof, the Company will, subject to demand by Grandview, reimburse the Underwriters for all actual out-of-pocket accountable expenses directly incurred in connection herewith and Grandview will reimburse the Company any sums advanced for such purposes not offset by its actual out-of-pocket expenses.

FORM OF INDIVIDUAL LOCK-UP AGREEMENT
 
This AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of the date set forth on the signature page of this Agreement by ______ (“Holder”), maintaining an address at ___________________, in connection with its ownership of shares of common stock of [______], a [_____] company (the “Company”). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Underwriting Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which consideration are hereby acknowledged, Holder agrees as follows:

Background

A. The holder understands that the Company and _______ (the “Underwriter”) intend to enter into the Underwriting Agreement, relating to the initial public offering of up to 1,400,000 shares of its common stock (the “Maximum Offering”), par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at $5.00 per share, to investors on a “best efforts” basis (the “Offering”).
 
B. The Company intends to apply for the listing of its Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Nasdaq”).
 
C. Holder is the beneficial owner of the amount of shares of Common Stock of the Company designated on the signature page hereto.
 
D. In order to induce the Company and Underwriter to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the Offering, and in recognition of the benefit that such Offering will confer upon the Holder as a stockholder of the Company, the Holder agrees that he will sell any of the Lockup Shares (defined below) for a period of three (3) months after the Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
 
1.           Sale Restriction.  Holder hereby agrees that during the Restriction Period, the Holder will not offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, lend, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock or any options, warrants or other rights to purchase shares of Common Stock or any other security of the Company which Holder owns or has a right to acquire as of the date hereof (collectively, the “Lockup Shares”). Any subsequent issuance to and/or acquisition by Holder of shares of Common Stock or options or in struments convertible into shares of Common Stock will be subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on transfer, the Holder may, at any time and from time to time during the Restriction Period, transfer the Lockup Shares (i) as bona fide gifts or transfers by will or intestacy, (ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the Holder, provided that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (iii) to a partnership which is the general partner of a partnership of which the Holder is a general partner, provided, that, in the case of any gift or transfer described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), each donee or transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions contained herein in the same manner as such terms and conditions apply to the undersigned. For purposes hereof, “immediate family” means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin.
 
 
 

 
 
2.           Ownership. During the Restriction Period, the Holder shall retain all rights of ownership in the Lockup Shares, including, without limitation, voting rights and the right to receive any dividends that may be declared in respect thereof.

3.           Company and Transfer Agent. The undersigned confirms that he understands that Underwriter and the Company will rely upon the representations set forth in this agreement in proceeding with the Offering.  The undersigned agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent against the transfer of Common Stock except in compliance with this agreement. .

4.           Notice.  All notices, communications and instructions required or desired to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be deemed to be duly given if sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or overnight courier to the following addresses:
 
 
 
 If to the Company:
 
   
 [_________]
 
 With copies to:

 If to the Underwriter:

 With copies to:

 If to the Holder, to the address set forth on the signature page hereto.
 
5.           Miscellaneous.

b.           This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.  Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be brought only in the state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in the state of New York.  The parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens.  The partie s executing this Agreement and other agreements referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith agree to submit to the in personam jurisdiction of such courts and hereby irrevocably waive trial by jury.  The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs.  In the event that any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law.  Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.  Notices hereunder shall be given in the same manner as set forth in the Subscription Agreement.  Each party hereby irrevocab ly waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or any other Offering documents by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.  Holder irrevocably appoints the Company its true and lawful agent for service of process upon whom all processes of law and notices may be served and given in the manner described above; and such service and notice shall be deemed valid personal service and notice upon Holder with the same force and validity as if served upon Holder.
 
c.           The restrictions on transfer described in this Agreement are in addition to and cumulative with any other restrictions on transfer otherwise agreed to by the Holder or to which the Holder is subject to by applicable law.

d.           This Agreement shall be binding upon Holder, its legal representatives, successors and assigns.

e.           This Agreement may be signed and delivered by facsimile signature and delivered electronically.

g. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, altered or supplemented, except by a written agreement executed by the Company and Underwriter.
 
h. If for any reason the Underwriting Agreement shall be terminated prior to the Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Underwriting Agreement), the agreement set forth above shall likewise be terminated.
 
i. This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and/or contemporaneous understandings and agreements of any kind and nature (whether written or oral) among the parties with respect to such subject matter.
