Ladies and Gentlemen:

 
DATE

 
Simlatus Corporation (the "Company") and Rockwell Capital Partners Inc (the "Investor") have entered into a 3(a)(10) Settlement dated as of DATE (the "Agreement") in the principal amount of $81,341.63 (the "Settlement").

 
A copy of the settlement is attached hereto. You should familiarize yourself with your issuance and delivery obligations, as Transfer Agent, contained therein. The shares to be issued are to be registered in the names of the registered holder of the securities submitted for conversion or exercise.
 
You are hereby irrevocably authorized and instructed to reserve a sufficient number of shares of common stock ("Common Stock") of the Company  (initially, 400,000,000 Shares for this specific transaction) for issuance upon full conversion of the Settlement in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event that the price per share of the Common Stock falls below 50% of the closing price on the date of this letter, the Investor may from time to time provide you with written notice to increase the number of shares of Common Stock so reserved, without any further action or confirmation of the Company, to such number of shares as equals five times the outstanding Note balance at the time of the notice divided by the lowest price traded of the Common Stock for the ten trading days prior to the date of the notice. In the event of a reverse stock split the reserve should remain unchanged unless instructed by the Investor and the Company.
 
The ability to convert the Settlement in a timely manner is a material obligation of the Company pursuant to the Settlement. Your firm is hereby irrevocably authorized and instructed to first issue shares of Common Stock of the Company (without any restrictive legend) to the Investor from the Company's authorized and unissued shares to the extent the same are available and not from the Transfer Agent Reserve (unless and until there are no authorized shares of Common Stock available for issuance other than those held in the Transfer Agent Reserve) without any further action or confirmation by the Company: (A) upon your receipt from the Investor of: (i) a notice of conversion ("Conversion Notice") executed by the Investor; and (ii) an opinion of counsel of the Investor, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions (and satisfactory to the transfer agent), to the effect that the shares of Common Stock of the Company issued to the Investor pursuant to the Conversion Notice are not "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 and should be issued to the Investor without any restrictive legend; and (B) the number of shares to be issued is less than 4.99% of the total issued common stock of the Company confirmed by a representation letter from Rockwell Capital Partners stating that the shares issued will keep Rockwell Capital Partners ownership below 4.99% and no other confirmation will be necessary. The representation letter signed by Rockwell Capital Partners stating they are below 4.99% ownership will be sufficient to issue the requested shares.

The Company hereby requests that your firm act immediately, without delay and without the need for any action or confirmation by the Company with respect to the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to any Conversion Notices received from the Investor. The request shall be honored and shares issued within 24 hours. The Investor understands and acknowledges that in the event that the Company is delinquent in billing with Presidents Stock Transfer, they will honor conversion requests with the additional payment of $200.00 per request.
 
The Company shall indemnify you and your officers, directors, principals, partners, agents and representatives, and hold each of them harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its attorneys) incurred by or asserted against you or any of them arising out of or in connection the instructions set forth herein, the performance of your duties hereunder and otherwise in respect hereof, including the costs and expenses of defending yourself or themselves against any claim or liability hereunder, except that the Company shall not be liable hereunder as to matters in respect of which it is determined that you have acted with gross negligence or in bad faith. You shall have no liability to the Company in respect to any action taken or any failure to act in respect of this if such action was taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, and you shall be entitled to rely in this regard on the advice of counsel.
 
The Board of Directors of the Company has approved the foregoing (irrevocable instructions) and does hereby extend the Company's irrevocable agreement to indemnify your firm for all loss, liability or expense in carrying out the authority and direction herein contained on the terms herein set forth.
 
The Company agrees that in the event that the Transfer Agent resigns as the Company's transfer agent, the Company shall engage a suitable replacement transfer agent that will agree to serve as transfer agent for the Company and be bound by the terms and conditions of these Irrevocable Instructions within five (5) business days. Furthermore, if the company decides to switch or terminate the current Transfer Agent, 30 day notice of termination must be given, and the fee for the irrevocable agreement transfer will be $350.00 per irrevocable agreement payable to the current transfer  agent prior  to termination.
 
You are also authorized to release any information you deem necessary towards  processing clearing and settlement of the shares arising from this reservation.
 
The Investor is intended to be and are third party beneficiaries hereof, and no amendment or modification to the instructions set forth herein may be made without the consent of the Investor.
 

Very truly yours,
 
 
Chief Executive Officer
