NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Merger Agreement.
2. Representations and Warranties of Stockholder. Stockholder represents and warrants to the Company:
(a) The Stockholder is a natural person, corporation, limited partnership, limited liability company, or limited company. If Stockholder is a corporation, limited partnership, limited liability company, or limited company, Stockholder is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, organized or constituted. The Stockholder has all necessary power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Stockholder have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Stockholder and no other proceedings on the part of the Stockholder are necessary to authorize this Agreement, or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.
(b) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Stockholder and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Stockholder, enforceable against the Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except to the extent such enforcement is limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar legal requirements of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and by general equitable principles.
(c) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance by the Stockholder of the covenants and obligations hereunder will not result in any breach or violation of or be in conflict with or constitute a default under any term of any agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree, law, regulation or arrangement to which such the Stockholder is a party or by which the Stockholder (or any of his, her, or its assets) is bound.
3. Leak-Out. For so long as the Stockholder owns any Merger Shares, she, he or it will not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Parent:
(a) sell any Merger Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market or securities exchange or trading market where the Merger Shares are traded (the “Trading Market”) in excess of 10% of the daily trading volume for the Parent Common Stock on the Trading Market on such trading day; and
(b) otherwise sell, grant an option for the purchase or sale of, transfer, pledge, assign, hypothecate, distribute or otherwise encumber or dispose of any Merger Shares or any beneficial interest therein (collectively a “Transfer”), unless, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Agreement with respect to the Merger Shares subject to the Transfer as if such transferee had been originally named as the Stockholder under this Agreement.
4. Miscellaneous Provisions.
(a) Amendments, Modifications and Waivers. No amendment, modification or waiver in respect of this Agreement shall be effective against any party unless it shall be in writing and signed by the Stockholder and the Parent.
(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties to this Agreement and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
(c) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to any applicable principles of conflicts of law thereof. The parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Las Vegas, Nevada for any action, dispute or proceeding arising out of this Agreement.
(d) Assignment and Successors. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their respective successor and permitted assigns. This Agreement and all the provisions hereof may not be assigned by the Stockholder or the Parent without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, this Agreement shall be binding on the transferee of any Transfer of Merger Shares.

(e) No Third Party Rights. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
(g) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.
(h) Specific Performance; Injunctive Relief. The Stockholder acknowledges that the Parent may be irreparably harmed and that there may be no adequate remedy at law for a breach of any of the covenants or agreements of the Stockholder set forth in this Agreement. Therefore, the Stockholder hereby agrees that, in addition to any other remedies that may be available to the Parent upon any such breach, the Parent shall have the right to seek specific performance, injunctive relief or any other remedies available to such party at law or in equity.
