WHEREAS, the Company has established the Think Partnership Inc. 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“Plan”), a copy of which can be obtained by written or telephonic request to the Company Secretary, and which Plan is made a part hereof; and

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) determined by Unanimous Written Consent of May 22, 2008 (the “Grant Date”), that the Employee be granted shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Stock”) subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions as hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual undertakings herein contained, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1.

Grant of Stock.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the Plan, as of the Grant Date the Company hereby grants to the Employee [No. Shares] shares (the “Shares”) of Stock.  As long as the Shares are subject to the Restrictions set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement, the Shares shall be deemed to be, and are referred to in this Agreement as, the “Restricted Shares.”

2.

Restrictions.  The Shares, Restricted Shares or rights granted hereunder may not be sold, assigned, transferred, exchanged, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of and shall be subject to the risk of forfeiture contained in Section 4 of this Agreement (such limitations on transferability and risk of forfeiture being herein referred to as “Restrictions”) until the Shares becomes vested and the Restrictions lapse in accordance with Section 3. The period of time between the date hereof and the date the Shares becomes vested and the Restrictions lapse as to Restricted Shares is referred to herein as the “Restriction Period.”

3.

Lapse of Restrictions.  The interest of the Employee in the Shares shall vest, and the Restrictions on the Restricted Shares granted under this Agreement shall simultaneously lapse, as to one-third of such Shares on the first anniversary of the Grant Date, and as to an additional one-third on each of the two succeeding anniversary dates, so as to be 100% vested on the third anniversary thereof, specifically conditioned upon the Employee’s continued employment with the Company on each vesting date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Employee is terminated “without cause” (as hereinafter defined) during the one year period following a “Change of Control” (as defined in the Plan), the interest of the Employee in the Shares shall vest as to 100% of the then unvested Restricted Stock upon such Change in Control.  Upon lapse of the Restrictions in accordance with this Section, the Comp any shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, deliver to the Employee an unrestricted certificate for the Shares with respect to which

such Restrictions have lapsed.  For purposes of this Agreement, “without cause” shall refer to the Employee being terminated for any reason other than any of the following events as determined in the sole judgment of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer: (1) the Employee’s neglect of, or negligence in, the performance of his duties; (2) the Employee’s failure or refusal to follow written instructions given to him by his manager or a Company executive; (3) the Employee’s violation of any provision of the Company’s Bylaws or of any of its other written policies, standards, or regulations; (4) the Employee’s being investigated, indicted, convicted or plea bargaining in regard to any criminal offense, other than a misdemeanor not involving moral turpitude or a minor traffic violations; (5) the Employee’s violation or breach of any material term, covenant or condition contained in t his Agreement; (6) the Employee’s commission of any act of fraud, undisclosed or unapproved self-dealing, diversion of any corporate opportunity to himself or any third party or malfeasance against or concerning the Company and/or its subsidiaries; (7) the Employee engaging in any activities which, or facilitating any third party to, compete with the then current or planned business of the Company, or engaging in any other act which is willfully disloyal, deliberately dishonest, or demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, or any of their reputations or business interests; or (8) failure of the Employee to perform his assignments and duties at a level which is deemed to be acceptable or satisfactory by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

4.

Forfeiture of Restricted Shares. In the event that the Employee or the Company terminates the Employee’s employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries for any reason whatsoever, such event shall constitute an “Event of Forfeiture” and all Shares which at that time are Restricted Shares shall thereupon be forfeited by the Employee to the Company without payment of any consideration by the Company, and neither the Employee nor any successor, heir, assign or personal representative of the Employee shall have any right, title or interest in or to such Restricted Shares or the certificates evidencing them.

5.

Legend.  All certificates representing any shares of Stock of the Company subject to the provisions of this Agreement shall have endorsed thereon the following legends:

SALE, TRANSFER, OR HYPOTHECATION OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS RESTRICTED BY THE PROVISIONS OF A RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT ENTERED INTO BY THE COMPANY AND THIS REGISTERED HOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY, AND ALL OF THE PROVISIONS OF WHICH ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN.

THIS SECURITY HAS BEEN ISSUED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), PURSUANT TO A THEN EFFECIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8, REGISTRATION NO. 333-13766. THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT SHALL REMAIN IN EFFECT. THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED BY THE HOLDER THEREOF AT ANY TIME, EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT, FILED UNDER THE ACT COVERING THE SECURITY, OR (2) UPON DELIVERY TO THE COMPANY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY OPINING THAT THIS SECURITY MAY BE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT OR ANY THEN APPLICABLE LAW.

6.

Escrow.  The certificate or certificates evidencing the Restricted Shares subject hereto shall be delivered to and deposited with the Secretary of the Company as Escrow Agent in this

Page 2 of 10

transaction to be held in escrow until such Restricted Shares are released to the Employee or forfeited in accordance with this Agreement. The Employee shall, simultaneously with the delivery of this Agreement, deliver to the Company a stock power, in blank, executed by the Employee.  The Restricted Shares may also be held in a restricted book entry account in the name of the Employee. Such certificates or such book entry shares are to be held by the Escrow Agent until termination of the Restriction Period, when they shall be released by said Escrow Agent to the Employee.  If any Restricted Shares are forfeited, the Company shall direct the transfer agent of the Common Stock to make the appropriate entries in its records showing the cancellation of the certificate or certificates for such Restricted Shares and to return the Shares represented thereby to the Company’s treasury.

7.

Employee Shareholder Rights.  During the Restriction Period, the Employee shall have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Stock except for the right to transfer the Restricted Shares, as set forth in Section 3 and except as set forth in Section 7.  Accordingly, the Employee shall have the right to vote the Stock and to receive any cash dividends paid to or made with respect to the Stock.

8.

Changes in Stock.  In the event that, as a result of any merger or sale of all or substantially all of the assets or other acquisition of the Company and by virtue of any such change, the Employee shall, in the Employee’s capacity as owner of unvested shares of Stock which have been awarded to the Employee (the “Prior Stock”), be entitled to new or additional or different shares or securities, such new or additional or different shares or securities shall thereupon be considered to be unvested Restricted Shares and shall be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions which were applicable to the Prior Stock pursuant to this Agreement.

9.

Disability Termination or Permanent and Total Disability of Employee. In the event of a Disability Termination or permanent and total disability of the Employee, any unpaid and undelivered but vested Stock shall be paid to the Employee if legally competent or to a legally designated guardian or representative if the Employee is legally incompetent.

10.

Death of Employee.  In the event of the Employee’s death after the vesting date but prior to the payment and delivery of Stock, said Stock shall be paid to the Employee's estate or designated beneficiary.

11.

Taxes.  The Employee shall be liable for any and all taxes, including withholding taxes, arising out of purchase or acquisition of the Shares or the vesting of Shares hereunder. If the Employee makes any tax election relating to the treatment of the Shares under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), at the time of such election the Employee shall promptly notify the Company of such election.  The Employee understands that the failure to timely make an election and complete the related filing may result in the recognition of ordinary income by the Employee, as the Restrictions lapse, on the difference between the purchase price and the fair market value of the Shares at the time such restrictions lapse.  The Company and the Employee acknowledge and agree that the purchase or acquisition price of the Shares is zero. The Employee agrees to seek and retain, at the Employee’s sole expense, such professional tax advice as the Employee deems appropriate and hereby releases and discharges the Company from any and all claims or liability in any way relating to taxes on the Shares.

Page 3 of 10

The following paragraph is for information purposes only and shall not constitute any form of tax advice, agreement, representation, warranty or otherwise by the Company:  The Employee acknowledges and understands that Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, taxes as ordinary income the difference between the amount paid for the Shares, if any, and the fair market value of the Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse.  The Employee understands that if such provision is applicable to him he may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are acquired or purchased rather than when and as the Restrictions Lapse by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days from the date of purchase or acquisition and with his income tax returns for the year to which the 83(b) election pertains.  Even if the fair market value of the Shares equals the amount paid for the Shares, the election must be made to avoid adverse tax consequences in the future.  The Employee understands that the failure to timely make this filing may result in the recognition of ordinary income by the Employee, as the Restrictions lapse, on the difference between the purchase or acquisition price and the fair market value of the Shares at the time such restrictions lapse.

THE EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS HIS SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S, TO TIMELY FILE ANY ELECTION UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE, UNDER SECTION 83(b) OR OTHERWISE, AND NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR ITS REPRESENTATIVES SHALL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION TO THE EMPLOYEE REGARDING ANY SUCH ELECTION, FILING OR TAX ADVICE ON THE EMPLOYEE’S BEHALF.

12.

SEC Reporting.  If the Employee is an officer or director of the Company required to report legal or beneficial ownership of Stock, or make any filings, pursuant to any applicable securities laws and rules or regulations promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Effective Date of this Agreement shall mark the date on which the Employee shall be deemed to have acquired the Stock for such reporting and filing purposes.  It shall be the sole and exclusive obligation of the Employee to comply with all such individual reporting and filing requirements and neither the Company nor its representative assumes any obligation, duty or responsibility whatsoever regarding such individual reporting or filing.

13.

Securities Laws Compliance.  It is the sole responsibility of the Employee to comply with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and all applicable federal or state securities laws, as they are in effect hereafter, and the requirements of any stock exchange or national market system on which the Shares may be listed at any subsequent time.  The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company is under no obligation to register, qualify or list the Shares with the SEC, any state securities commission or any stock exchange to effect such compliance, or, if registered, qualified or listed, to retain such status for any amount of time.  To the extent that the Shares are registered under the Company’s then effective registration statement on Form S-8, Registration No. 333-13766, the Employee may avail himself of the benefits of such registration, provided that the Company shall not b e obligated to maintain the effectiveness of such registration for any amount of time.  The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Shares may have to be held indefinitely unless they are properly registered under the 1933 Act and qualified or registered under other applicable securities laws, rules and regulations, or unless an exemption from such qualification or registration is available.  Without in any way limiting the Employee’s representations set forth above, the Employee further agrees that he shall in no event make any disposition of all or any portion of the Shares, unless and until

Page 4 of 10

(A) there is then in effect a registration statement under the 1933 Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with said registration statement, with ten (10) business days written notice given to the Company prior to any planned disposition; or (B) (1) the Employee shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, (2) the Employee shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of the Employee’s counsel, retained at the Employee’s sole expense, to the effect that such disposition will not require registration of such Shares under the 1933 Act, and (3) such opinion of the Employee’s counsel shall have been reasonably concurred in by counsel for the Company and the Company shall have advised Purchaser of such concurrence.

14.

Market Stand-Off.  In connection with any subsequent underwritten public offering of Stock by the Company, the Company (or a representative of the underwriter) may require that the Employee not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Shares during a period (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) following the effective date of the registration statement of the Company filed under the 1933 Act, related to such public offering.

15.

Investment Representations.  As a material inducement to the Company to issue the Shares to the Employee, and in order to establish the suitability for the Employee of such an investment, the Employee hereby makes the following representations and warranties, and authorizes the Company to rely upon the same:

       (a)  Investment Intent.  The Employee is aware of and familiar with the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach a knowledgeable and informed decision to acquire the Shares.  The Employee is acquiring the Shares for his own account and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution of the Shares.

       (b)  Relationship.  The Employee has a preexisting relationship with the Company as an employee.

       (c)  Experience.  The Employee and/or his professional advisors who are not compensated by or affiliated with the Company or a selling agent of the Company (“Representatives”), if any, have such business or financial experience so that the Employee understands the nature of his investment in the Shares and has the capacity to protect his own interests in connection with the purchase or acquisition of the Shares.

       (d)  Risks.  The Employee understands that an investment in the Company is speculative, that any possible profits therefrom are uncertain, and that he must bear the economic risks of the investment in the Company for an indefinite period of time, including the possible loss of his entire investment.  The Employee is able to bear these economic risks and to hold the Shares for an indefinite period.

       (e)  Information.  The Employee and his Representatives, if any, have received all information and data with respect to the Company which the Employee or his Representatives have requested and have deemed relevant in connection with an evaluation of the merits and risks of this investment in the Company, and do not desire any further information or data with respect to the Company prior to the purchase or acquisition of the Shares.

Page 5 of 10

       (f)  Domicile.  The Employee is a bona fide resident and domiciliary, not a temporary transient resident, of and has his principal residence in the State of Florida, and does not have any present intention of moving his principal residence from the State of Florida.

16.

Release of All Earnout Claims.  As a material condition precedent to the grant of the Shares herein made, the Employee hereby agrees to forfeit, release, sell, transfer and assign to the Company, and does hereby so forfeit, release, sell, transfer and assign, any claim, however described, to any and all rights to receive an Earnout Payment or a payment from the Bonus Pool, as such terms are defined in the Agreement dated as of February 17, 2006, by and among Think Partnership Inc., Litmus Acquisition Sub, Inc., Litmus Media, Inc., John Linden and Toby Teeter, as amended and superseded by the Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Second Amendment to Agreement, made and entered into on March 16, 2006 and August 10, 2006, respectively, by and among the same named parties, which Earnout Payment or Bonus Pool payment shall no longer be payable to the Employee under any circumstances or conditions.  The Company shall be exclusi vely entitled to receive and retain any Earnout Payment or Bonus Pool payment, if any.  Should any portion of this release of payments contained in this section of this Agreement be declared illegal or unenforceable for any reason by any court of competent jurisdiction and cannot be modified to be fully enforceable, or should the Employee ever contest his release, forfeiture, sale, transfer or assignment of such payments, the Employee shall be required to return, transfer, and/or deliver back to the Company all Shares or an equivalent number of shares of Stock regardless of whether the Employee then own the Shares.
