ARTICLE I

Settlement of Section 4.8 Obligation and Certain Other Matters

Section 1.1.      Settlement of Section 4.8 Obligation. Effective as of the Effective Date (as defined in Section 1.4), the Section 4.8 Obligation is hereby discharged in its entirety, and neither Twinlab nor Twinlab Consolidated shall have any further obligation to 2014 Huntington or any other Person (as defined below) under, or in respect of, Section 4.8 of the SPA. Effective as of the Effective Date, and in consideration for the discharge of the Section 4.8 Obligation, Twinlab Consolidated shall issue and deliver to 2014 Huntington the Note. Effective as of the Effective Date, and in consideration for the issuance and delivery by Twinlab Consolidated of the Note, 2014 Huntington shall place the Subject Shares in escrow with Twinlab Consolidated, together with stock powers duly executed in blank or other instruments of transfer requested by Twinlab Consolidated (as the Twinlab Consolidated Shares are set forth on one stock certificate, (i) 2014 Huntington shall deliver such stock certificate to Twinlab Consolidated on the Effective Date, (ii) Twinlab Consolidated shall promptly thereafter split such stock certificate into two (2) stock certificates, with one stock certificate being in the amount of the Subject Shares and the other stock certificate being in the amount of the Remaining Shares and (iii) Twinlab Consolidated shall hold the stock certificate in the amount of the Subject Shares in escrow and shall return to Twinlab Consolidated the stock certificate in the amount of the Remaining Shares). If the Note is paid off, in full, on or prior to August 14, 2017, the Subject Shares shall automatically be released from escrow, and transferred and assigned, to Twinlab Consolidated for no further consideration. If the Note remains outstanding on August 15, 2017, Twinlab Consolidated shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pay One Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars ($140,000)(the “Twinlab Option Price”) to 2014 Huntingon to purchase seven hundred sixty four thousand one hundred ninety two (764,192) of the Subject Shares (the “Twinlab Purchase Option”). Twinlab Consolidated shall be required to exercise the Twinlab Purchase Option and pay the Twinlab Option Price to 2014 Huntington no later than August 22, 2017 and, upon such timely exercise and payment by Twinlab Consolidated, seven hundred sixty four thousand one hundred ninety two (764,192) of the Subject Shares shall be released from escrow and transferred and assigned to the Company. If the Note remains outstanding on August 15, 2017 and Twinlab Consolidated does not timely exercise the Twinlab Purchase Option and pay the Twinlab Option Price, the Subject Shares shall be returned from escrow to 2014 Huntington and shall cease to be subject to repurchase by Twinlab Consolidated. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, governmental agency or instrumentality, or any other entity.

Section 1.2.       Piggyback Registration Rights.

(a)     For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Registrable Securities” means the Remaining Shares and the Subject Shares held by 2014 Huntington; provided, that, the (i) Remaining Shares and the Subject Shares shall cease to constitute Registrable Securities at such time as they are freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and (ii) Subject Shares shall cease to constitute Registrable Securities if such Subject Shares are returned to the Company for cancellation in accordance with Section 1.1 or with respect to any Subject Shares purchased by the Company upon exercise of the Twinlab Purchase Option.

(b)     If Twinlab Consolidated, at any time on or after the Effective Date, proposes to register any of its securities under the Act (other than in connection with a registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms) whether for its own account or for the account of any holder or holders of its shares (any shares of such holder or holders (but not those of the Company) with respect to any registration are referred to herein as, “Other Shares”), Twinlab Consolidated shall each such time give prompt (but not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated effectiveness thereof) written notice to 2014 Huntington of its intention to do so. Upon the written request of 2014 Huntington made within ten (10) days after the receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by 2014 Huntington), except as set forth in Section 1.2(c) below, Twinlab Consolidated will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Act of all of the Registrable Securities which Twinlab Consolidated has been so requested to register by 2014 Huntington, by inclusion of such Registrable Securities in the registration statement which covers the securities which Twinlab Consolidated proposes to register; provided, however, that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, Twinlab Consolidated shall determine for any reason in its sole discretion either to not register, to delay or to withdraw registration of such securities, Twinlab Consolidated may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to 2014 Huntington and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration, (ii) in the case of a determination to delay registration, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities (including the Other Shares) and (iii) in the case of a determination to withdraw registration, shall be permitted to withdraw registration. Upon such withdrawal, the rights under this Section 1.2 shall continue in full force and effect.

(c)     If Twinlab Consolidated at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the Act as contemplated by this Section 1.2 and such securities are to be distributed by or through one or more underwriters, Twinlab Consolidated shall, if requested by 2014 Huntington, use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for such underwriters to include all the Registrable Securities requested to be offered and sold by 2014 Huntington among the securities to be distributed by such underwriters, provided that if the managing underwriter of such underwritten offering shall inform Twinlab Consolidated of its belief that inclusion in such distribution of all or a specified number of such securities proposed to be distributed by such underwriters would interfere with the successful marketing of the securities being distributed by such underwriters, then Twinlab Consolidated may, upon written notice to 2014 Huntington and holders of Other Shares, reduce pro rata in accordance with the number of shares of Common Stock desired to be included in such registration (if and to the extent stated by such managing underwriter to be necessary to eliminate such effect) the number of such Registrable Securities and Other Shares (but not the shares of Common Stock to be included in such registration for the account of Twinlab Consolidated) the registration of which shall have been requested by 2014 Huntington and each holder of Other Shares.

(d)     In connection with any registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1.2(b), Twinlab Consolidated shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto Twinlab Consolidated shall:

(i)     prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;

(ii)     notify 2014 Huntington of the effectiveness of each registration statement filed hereunder and prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to (1) keep such registration statement effective and the prospectus included therein usable for a period commencing on the date that such registration statement is initially declared effective by the SEC and ending on the date when all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement have been sold pursuant to the registration statement or cease to be Registrable Securities, and (2) comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement;

(iii)     furnish to 2014 Huntington such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as 2014 Huntington may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by 2014 Huntington;

(iv)     use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as 2014 Huntington may reasonably request and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable 2014 Huntington to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that Twinlab Consolidated shall not be required to: (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph; (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction; or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(v)     notify 2014 Huntington, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not materially misleading;

(vi)     in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Registrable Securities included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, Twinlab Consolidated shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order; and

(vii)     use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable 2014 Huntington to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

(e) Twinlab Consolidated shall pay all Registration Expenses relating to the registration obligations set forth in this Section 1.2. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Registration Expenses” means: (a) all registration, filing and FINRA fees, (b) all reasonable fees and expenses of complying with securities or blue sky laws, (c) all word processing, duplicating and printing expenses and (d) the fees and disbursements of counsel for Twinlab Consolidated and of its independent public accountants, including the expenses of any special audits or “cold comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance and compliance.

(f) If 2014 Huntington desires to include Registrable Securities in any registration, 2014 Huntington shall furnish to Twinlab Consolidated such information as Twinlab Consolidated may reasonably request in writing to enable Twinlab Consolidated to comply with the provisions hereof in connection with any registration referred to in this Agreement.
