WHEREAS, the Shareholders are executing this Agreement in order to induce Top Favour and its shareholders to consummate the Transaction;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements and covenants set forth herein and in the Exchange Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

 

SECTION 1.01                           Controlling Ownership.  Within 15 days of the date of this Agreement, the Shareholders shall take all actions necessary, including converting into shares of the Common Stock the principal and accrued interest of a promissory note assigned to them by Bullion Reef Holdings Ltd., such that the Shareholders, together with their affiliates, shall hold at least 49% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock (“Controlling Ownership”).  Until the Transaction is either consummated or terminated, the Shareholders shall maintain Controlling Ownership, provided, however, that the Shareholders are not required to spend more than $400,000 acquiring shares of Common Stock to maintain Controlling Ownership, whether through the exercise of stock options or warrants or in any other manner.  All such acquisitions shall be made subject to federal and state laws.

 

 

ARTICLE II

 

 

SECTION 2.01                           Vote in Favor of Transaction.  During the period commencing on the date hereof and terminating on the consummation or termination of the Transaction, each Shareholder, in his or her capacity as a shareholder of the Company (or successor), agrees to vote (or cause to be voted) all Shares directly or indirectly owned by the Shareholder or over which the Shareholder has the beneficial ownership or the right to vote and all Shares which such Shareholder acquires directly or indirectly or has the beneficial ownership or right to vote in the future, at any meeting of the Shareholders of the Company and in any action by written consent of the Shareholders of the Company, if any, in favor of the Transaction and the other matters set forth in the Exchange Agreement.

 

SECTION 2.02                           Directors.  In the event that Top Favour and its shareholders have satisfied their conditions to the Closing (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), but if any member of the Company’s Board of  Directors other than Abdul Ladha have failed to tender their resignations as a director as contemplated in the Exchange Agreement and/or are unwilling to appoint Top Favour’s designees to the Company Board of Directors as specified in the Exchange Agreement, then, if the Shareholders do not at that date have voting control over at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Shareholders shall acquire additional shares of Common Stock (referred to in this Section 2.02 as the “Additional Stock”).  The Shareholders shall not be required to spend more than $400,000 in acquiring the Additional Stock, provided, however, that the Shareholders may deduct from the $400,000 the cost of Common Stock required to be purchased to maintain Controlling Ownership under Section 1.01 above.  For example, if the Shareholders spend $50,000 to maintain Controlling Ownership, then they will be required to spend no more than $350,000 to acquire the Additional Stock.  Provided further, that the object of this Section 2.02 is to try to give the Shareholders a majority of the voting power.  Therefore, the Shareholders must purchase only enough Additional Stock to give them a majority of the voting power, but, if the purchase of all of the Additional Stock required to be purchased under this Section 2.02 will not be sufficient to give them a majority of the voting power, then they must purchase all of the Additional Stock.  All such acquisitions shall be made subject to federal and state laws.  Abdul Ladha agrees to resign from the Board of Directors in the manner set forth in the Exchange Agreement.  Once the Shareholders have purchased any shares of Common Stock they are required to purchase pursuant to this Section 2.02, they shall vote in favor of Top Favour’s designees to the Board of Directors in lieu of the current directors either by signing a written consent or by casting their votes at a meeting of the Company’s shareholders, at Top Favour’s option.

 

 

 

SECTION 2.03                           Term of Agreement.  The obligations of the Shareholders pursuant to this Article I shall terminate upon the consummation or termination of the Transaction.

 

ARTICLE III

 

 

SECTION 3.01                           Vote in Favor of Corporate Matters.  During the term of this Agreement, each Shareholder hereby agrees and covenants to vote or cause to be voted all of his or her Shares then owned by him or her, or over which he or she has voting power, and all Shares which such Shareholder acquires directly or indirectly or has the beneficial ownership or right to vote in the future, at any regular or special meeting of shareholders, or, in lieu of any such meeting, to give his written consent in any action by written consent of the shareholders, in favor of all actions as shall be necessary or desirable in connection with or related to the Transaction including, without limitation, any amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company to effect any actions specified therein, so long as such actions are contemplated by the Exchange Agreement.
