SHARE PURCHASE LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

Private Sales Transaction

 

THIS AGREEMENT is entered into as of the 25th day of November, 2016 by and between Admaxoffers.com, LLC, a Georgia Limited Liability Corporation, Edward Zimbardi and Brenda Zimbardi, Georgia residents (hereafter referred to as the “Sellers”) and EZJR, Inc. (the “Buyer”), a Nevada corporation, referred to herein as the “Parties”.

 

WHEREAS, the Sellers report ownership of 1,800,000 Shares (“Selling Shares”) of the common stock of EZJR, Inc. (“the Company”), a Nevada Company, whose stock is quoted on the OTC-Bulletin Board, under the stock symbol EZJR (“Shares”);

 

WHEREAS, the Sellers desire to sell 500,000 of their Shares to EZJR and EZJR is desirous to purchase 500,000 Shares from the Sellers, in a private transaction, upon the terms and conditions set forth below.

 

WHEREAS, upon purchase of the 500,000 Shares, EZJR intends to cancel these shares and return them to its corporate treasury.

 

WHEREAS, the Sellers agree to lock-up their remaining Share ownership in EZJR, based on the terms and conditions set forth below.

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree to the following.

 

1. Purchase Price. The Sellers agree to sell, transfer and deliver to the Buyer and the Buyer agrees to purchase 500,000 shares of the EZJR, Inc. stock, free and clear of all encumbrances and liens created by the Sellers, for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 USD (“Purchase Price”).

 

2. Lock-up. Sellers understand that EZJR is seeking to raise capital in order to build its business. It is easier for the Company to raise capital when its stock price is not depressed. This lock-up agreement adds a level of protection to prevent the Sellers from liquidating their stock holdings and adversely affecting the market of the stock. It is further understood that some of their shares may be eligible for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, subject to certain limitations included in said Rule. The lock-up agreement shall remain effect until the Sellers’s remaining Shares are registered with the SEC.

 

3 Demand Registration Rights. EZJR agrees to register half of the Sellers’s remaining shares within 60-days of EZJR trading on any Exchange. Once the Registration Statement becomes effective for the Registered Shares, they are no longer subject to any lock-up agreement. If the Registration Statement is not filed in the 60-day period, EZJR will pay the Sellers a penalty of $1,000 per month until the Registration Statement is filed with the SEC. After the first Registration Statement becomes effective, 366 days later, EZJR agrees to register the remaining half of the shares owned by the Sellers. After each Registration Statement becomes effective, the shares being registered are no longer subject to any lock-up agreement. EZJR will provide all legal opinion letters to remove the legend of the Sellers’s remaining Shares after they are registered. The Sellers will be responsible for any transfer agent fees, and will be responsible to open their own brokerage account.

 

 

 

4. Stock Certificate Replacements. If the Sellers are unable to find their certificate(s), the Sellers agree to file an affidavit of Lost Certificate with Quicksilver Stock Transfer, and EZJR agrees to indemnify the Stock Transfer Agent, in order to replace the lost certificate(s).

 

5. Permitted Transfer. Upon the prior written consent of the Company the Stockholder may transfer (the “Permitted Transfer”) Shares as a bona fide gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or trust for the benefit of a family member; provided that each transferee, donee or distributee of the Shares shall sign and deliver to the Company a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this Agreement contemporaneously with such transaction.

 

6. Representations and Warranties of the Sellers. In order to induce the Buyer to enter into this Agreement and complete its transactions contemplated hereunder, Sellers represent and warrant to Buyer that:

 

6.1 Sellers have good and marketable title to the Selling Shares, and the Buyer will receive the Selling Shares, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances;

 

6.2 The Sellers’s ownership of these shares will be delivered to the Buyer in certificate form, with the appropriate signature guarantee (medallion) endorsement.

 

6.3 Sellers have good and sufficient power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and complete its transactions contemplated under this Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and the sale of the Selling Shares to Buyer will not violate any other agreement or instrument to which Sellers are a party or by which the Selling Shares are bound.
