During the period commencing on the Closing and ending on the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the Qualified Listing and (y) the third anniversary of the Closing, Founder Parties may not sell, assign, lend, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Founder Shares, whether with or without consideration and whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law (“Transfer,” and such correlative transaction, a “Transfer”) except as provided in Sections 3.2  to 3.4  below and except the 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock pledged to Allied Merit International Investment, Inc. pursuant to certain stock pledge agreement dated as of July 15, 2008.

The restrictions on Transfer provided in this Section 3 shall not be applicable to any Transfer by a Founder Party to a Founder’s spouse, the siblings, ancestors and descendants (whether natural or adopted) of such Founder, and any trust for the benefit of the Founder or any of the foregoing, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.  Any such transferee shall be referred to herein as a “Permitted Transferee” and any such transfer be referred to as a “Permitted Transfer.”

(c)

In the case of any such Permitted Transfer, the transferring Founder Party shall have provided the Holders with written notice of such proposed Transfer at least 30 days prior to consummating such Transfer stating the name and address of the Permitted Transferee, the relationship between the transferring Founder Party and the Permitted Transferee, and the Permitted Transferee shall have executed a copy of this Agreement as a Founder Party of the Company.  

(d)

If any such Permitted Transferee to whom Founder Shares have been transferred by a Founder Party ceases to be a Permitted Transferee, such shares of Common Stock shall be transferred back to the transferring stockholder immediately prior to the time such Person ceases to be a Permitted Transferee of such stockholder.

(e)

In the case of any transfer to a Permitted Transferee, the transferring Founder Party and such Permitted Transferee shall be jointly and severally liable for any breach of this Agreement by such Permitted Transferee.

3.2

Right of First Refusal.  

(a)

In the event that any Founder Party proposes to Transfer any Founder Shares, such Founder Party shall give each Holder a written notice (the “Holders Notice”) of the price, terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, including the identity of the proposed transferee of such Founder Shares and a copy of any written proposal, term sheet, letter of intent or other agreement relating to the proposed Transfer.  Each Holder shall have twenty (20) days from the date of the Holders Notice to agree to acquire all or any portion of such Holder’s First Refusal Pro Rata Share of such Founder Shares, for the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the Holders Notice, by giving written notice to such Founder Party stating therein the quantity of such Founder Shares to be acquired.  If any Holder fails to agree to acquire its full First Refusal Pro Rata Share within such twenty (20) day period, such Founder Party transferring such Founder Shares will give the H olders who did so agree (the “Electing Holders”) notice (the “Second Holders Notice”) of the number of Founder Shares which were not subscribed for.  The Electing Holders shall have ten (10) days from the date of the Second Holders Notice to agree to acquire their respective First Refusal Pro Rata Share of all or any part of the Founder Shares not subscribed for by such other Holders.  For purposes of the second election under this Section 3.2 (a), securities held by Holders other than Electing Holders shall be excluded for the purpose of calculating an Electing Holder’s “First Refusal Pro Rata Share.”

Subject to the provisions of Section 3.3, in the event a Holder fails to exercise the right of first refusal within said twenty (20) day period plus the ten (10) day period specified above (collectively, the “Notice Period”), such Founder Party shall have sixty (60) days thereafter to Transfer the Founder Shares not elected to be subscribed upon the terms and conditions no more favorable to the transferee of such Founder Shares than specified in the Holder Notice.  In the event such Founder Party has not transferred the Shares within said sixty (60) day period, such Founder Party shall not thereafter Transfer any Founder Shares without first offering such Shares to the Holders in the manner provided in Section 3.2 (a).

3.3

Co-Sale Rights of Holders.

(a)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 3.2, neither the Founder Party nor Permitted Transferee may Transfer any of the Founder Shares which have not been elected to be subscribed by the Holders pursuant to Section 3.2 until each of the Holders shall have been given the opportunity, exercisable within twenty (20) days from the date of the Holders Notice, to sell to the proposed purchaser or purchasers, upon the same terms and conditions offered to the Founder Parties or Permitted Transferee, up to such Holder’s Co-Sale Pro Rata Share of the Founder Shares proposed to be sold.

(b)

Holders who fail to notify the Founder Party or such Permitted Transferee within twenty (20) days after the Holders Notice shall be deemed to have waived their rights under this Section 3.3.  Any Transfer made pursuant to this Section 3.3 (b) shall be consummated within sixty (60) days of the end of the Notice Period and shall be conditioned upon the agreement of the proposed transferee that such proposed transferee will acquire from each Holder timely electing to participate in such Transfer pursuant to this Section 3.3, such Holder’s Co-Sale Pro Rata Share of the Founder Shares proposed to be sold.  

(c)

Each Holder shall effect its participation in the Transfer by promptly delivering to the Founder Party for Transfer to the prospective transferee one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, which represent:

(i)

the number of shares of Common Stock which such Holder elects to sell; or

10


 

(ii)

that number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that is at such time convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder elects to sell; provided, however, that if the prospective transferee objects to the delivery of Series A Preferred Stock in lieu of Common Stock, such Holder shall convert such Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock and deliver Common Stock as provided above.  The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with the actual sale of such shares to the proposed purchaser.

(d)

The stock certificate or certificates that the Holder delivers to the Founder or such Permitted Transferee pursuant to Section 3.3 (c) shall be transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the Transfer of the Founder Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the Holders Notice, and the Founder Party shall concurrently therewith remit to such Holder that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Holder is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale.  To the extent that any prospective transferee prohibits such assignment or otherwise refuses to acquire shares or other securities from a Holder exercising its rights of co-sale hereunder, the Founder Party shall not Transfer to such prospective transferees any Founder Shares unless and until, simultaneously with such Transfer, the Founder Party shall purchase such shares or other securities from such Holder.

3.4

Restrictions on Transfer of Series A Preferred Stock.  

(a)

Except the restrictions set forth in Section 3.4 (b) below or as required by law, the Series A Preferred Shares shall not subject to any transfer restriction or limitations.

(b)

If a Holder proposes to sell any Series A Preferred Shares in a private negotiated transaction to a third party whose main operation business, to the knowledge of such selling Holder, is the processing or sale of goat milk (such third party, a “Company’s Competitor”), such Holder shall first notify the Founders and give the Founders the right of first refusal to purchase all of Series A Preferred Shares offered to sale on the same terms as the Company’s Competitor.  The Holder shall have rights to proceed the proposed transfer if the Founders waive such right of first refusal, fail to accept the offer within twenty (20) days after such notice is given, or do not pay the purchase price in full within sixty (60) days after the Founder exercising the right of first refusal.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

6.1

Demand Registration.

(a)

Registration.  Subject to the terms of this Section 6, at any time after the date of this Agreement, any Holders holding at least 20% or more in voting power of the then outstanding Registrable Securities (the “Initiating Holders”) may request the Company in writing to file a Registration Statement providing for the resale of the Registrable Securities that they hold for which the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public, net of Selling Expenses, would exceed US$500,000.  Such Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 or Form F-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or Form F-3, such registration shall be on Form S-1 or Form F-1 or such other appropriate form in accordance herewith and the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder).  Upon receipt of such a request, the Company shall (i) promptly (and in any event within 10 days) give written no tice of the proposed Registration to all other Holders and (ii) uses its best efforts to file such Registration Statement within forty-five (45) days of the receipt of such request covering all Registrable Securities specified in the request, together with any Registrable Securities of any Holder who requests in writing to join such Registration within ten (10) days after the Company’s delivery of written notice.  The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof.  The Company shall be obligated to effect no more than two Registrations within any twelve-month period; provided if the sale of all of the Registrable Securities requested to be included pursuant to this Section 6.1 (a) is not consummated for any reason other than due to the action or inaction of the Holders including Registrable Securities in such Registration, such Registration shall not be deemed to constitute one Registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 6.1 (a).

13


 

(b)

Limitations.  

(i)

The Company shall not be obligated to Register or qualify Registrable Securities pursuant to Section6.1 (a)  if, within ten (10) days of the receipt of any request of Initiating Holders to Register any Registrable Securities under Section 6.1 (a), The Company gives notice to such Initiating Holders of its bona fide intention to effect the filing for its own account of a Registration Statement with the Commission within sixty (60) days of receipt of that request (other than an Exempt Registration as defined below), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause that Registration Statement to become effective.

(ii)

The Company shall not be obligated to Register or qualify Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 6.1(a) if, after receiving a request from Initiating Holders pursuant to Section 6.1(a) hereof, the Board of the Company concludes in good faith, and upon the advice of legal counsel, that the filing of a Registration Statement under Section 6.1(a) would be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders in the near future because such action would (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Company; (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, and that, as a result, it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to defer the filing of such registrat ion statement at such time. If the Company furnishes to the Initiating Holders a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to the foregoing effect, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not to exceed ninety (90) days from the receipt of any request duly submitted by Initiating Holders under Section 6.1 (a) to Register Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any one-year period; and provided further that the Company shall not register any Securities for the account of itself or any other stockholder during such period (other than an Exempt Registration).

14


 

(c)

Underwritten Offerings.  If, in connection with a request to Register Registrable Securities under Section 6.1 (a), the Initiating Holders seek to distribute such Registrable Securities in an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of the request, and the Company shall include such information in the written notice to the other Holders described in Section .  In such event, the right of any Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Majority Initiating Holders) to the extent provided herein.  All Holders proposing to distribute their Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company (which underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Majority Initiating Holders).  Notwithstanding any other provisio n of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter advises the Company that market factors (including the aggregate number of securities requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell Securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the underwriters may exclude such number of Registrable Securities from the underwriting as required, but only after excluding all other Securities from the underwriting (including, without limitation, any Securities which the Company may seek to include in the underwriting for its own account).  If a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities is required pursuant to this Section 6.1 (c), the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting by selling Holders shall be allocated among such Holders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities which the Holders request to include in the Registration.  Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the Registration.

6.2

(b)

Right to Terminate Registration.  The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any Registration initiated by it under Section 6.2 (a) prior to the effectiveness of such Registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to participate therein.  The expenses of such withdrawn Registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 6.4.

(c)

Underwriting Requirements.  In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of the Company’s Securities, the Company shall not be required to Register the Registrable Securities of a Holder under this Section 6.2 unless such Holder shall include such Registrable Securities in the underwriting and such Holder enters into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriters selected by the Company (which underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Holders) and setting forth such terms for the underwriting as have been agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters.  In the event the underwriters advise Holders seeking Registration of Registrable Securities in writing that market factors (including the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell Securities pursuant to the Registration ) require a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the underwriters may exclude some or all Registrable Securities from the Registration and underwriting, but only after excluding all other Securities from the underwriting (other than any Securities which the Company may seek to include in the underwriting for its own account) (provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this section, in no event shall, after such exclusion, the Registrable Securities included in the underwriting would constitute less than 25% of the total Securities proposed to be sold in the offering), and the number of Securities and Registrable Securities that may be included in the Registration and the underwriting shall be allocated (i) first, to the Company, (ii) thereafter, among the Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities which the Holders woul d otherwise be entitled to include in the Registration, and (iii) finally to any other stockholders entitled to include Securities in such Registration Statement.

15


 

(d)

Exempt Transactions.  The Company shall have no obligation to Register any Registrable Securities under this Section 6.2 in connection with a Registration by the Company (i) relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in accordance with a Benefits Plan, or (ii) relating to a corporate reorganization or other transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act (collectively, “Exempt Registrations”).

The Company acknowledges that the U.S. income tax consequences to the Investor and the Investor U.S. Equity Holders of the investment in the Company will be significantly affected by whether the Company and/or any of the entities in which it owns an equity interest at any time is (i) a “passive foreign investment company” (within the meaning of Section 1297 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) (a “PFIC”) or (ii) classified as a partnership or a branch for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(c)

The Company shall determine annually, with respect to its taxable year (i) whether the Company is or may become a PFIC (including whether any exception to PFIC status may apply) or whether the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is  or may be classified as a partnership or branch for U.S. federal income tax purposes and notify the Investor of its finding.  If the Company is or may become a PFIC, it will (i) determine with respect to each taxable year whether each of the entities in which the Company owns or proposes to acquire an equity interest (directly or indirectly) is or may become a PFIC and, (ii) upon request from the Investor or any of the Investor U.S. Equity Holders, provide such information as the Investor and any of the Investor U.S. Equity Holders may request to permit them to elect to treat the Company and/or any such entity as a “qualified electing fund” (within the meaning of Section 1295 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company shall also obtain and provide reasonably promptly upon request any and all other information deemed necessary by the Investor and the Investor U.S. Equity Holders to comply with the provisions of this agreement, including English translations of any information requested.

23


 

(d)

The Company shall, if requested by the Investor or any the Investor U.S. Equity Holders, cooperate in determining whether it would be desirable, reasonable and appropriate for the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries to elect to be classified as a partnership or branch for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, if so, to take all reasonable steps to cause any such elections to be made.

(e)

The Company shall provide to the Investor within 45 days following the end of the Company’s taxable year for which the Company was (or may have been) a PFIC, a complete and accurate “PFIC Annual Information Statement,” in the form of Appendix A attached hereto, as applicable, for the Company and for each Subsidiary that was a PFIC for such taxable year and in which the Company owns an equity interest at any time during such year.

(i)

In the event of two or more arbitrations having been commenced under any of the Transaction Documents, the tribunal in the arbitration first filed (the “Principal Tribunal”) may in its sole discretion, upon the application of any party to the arbitrations, order that the proceedings be consolidated before the Principal Tribunal if (A) there are issues of fact and/or law common to the arbitrations, (B) the interests of justice and efficiency would be served by such a consolidation, and (C) no prejudice would be caused to any party in any material respect as a result of such consolidation, whether through undue delay or otherwise.  Such application shall be made as soon as practicable and the party making such application shall give notice to the other parties to the arbitrations.  

(ii)

25


 

(v)

The Parties hereby waive any objections they may have as to the validity and/or enforcement of any arbitral awards made by the Principal Tribunal following the consolidation of disputes or arbitral proceedings in accordance with this Section 8.3 where such objections are based solely on the fact that consolidation of the same has occurred.

8.4

Amendments.  Except as otherwise permitted herein, this Agreement and its provisions may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by a writing signed by each of (i) the Company, (ii) the Series A Majority Holders, and (iii) stockholders representing more than 75% in voting power of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock held by Parties hereto on a fully diluted and as converted basis.

8.7

Charter Documents.  In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between any of the terms of this Agreement and any of the terms of the Charter Documents for any of the Group Companies, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail, and accordingly, the Parties hereto shall exercise all voting and other rights and powers to procure any required alteration to such Charter Documents to resolve such conflict or inconsistency.  Each Party hereto agrees that it shall not enter into any other agreements or arrangements of any kind with respect to the voting of any Securities of the Company or deposit any Securities in other voting trust or similar arrangement.

8.9

Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by applicable Law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties.  The Parties will endeavor in good faith negotia tions to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

8.10

Remedies Cumulative.  Each and all of the various rights, powers and remedies of a Party hereto will be considered to be cumulative with and in addition to any other rights, powers and remedies which such Party may have at law or in equity in the event of the breach of any of the terms of this Agreement.  The exercise or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy will neither constitute the exclusive election thereof nor the waiver of any other right, power or remedy available to such Party.

8.11

No Presumption.  The Parties agree that this Agreement was jointly drafted by them, that each has been represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement, and that any applicable Law that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the Party that drafted it has no application and is expressly waived.  If any claim is made by a Party relating to any conflict, omission or ambiguity in the provisions of this Agreement, no presumption or burden of proof or persuasion will be implied because this Agreement was prepared by or at the request of any Party or its counsel, and no Party will claim or assert otherwise.

8.12

Aggregation of Shares.  All Securities of the Company held or acquired by Affiliates of an Investor shall be aggregated for purposed of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement.

8.13

No Waiver.  Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions hereof will not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor will any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance with, any right, power or remedy power hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right, power or remedy at any other time or times.

27


 

8.14

Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
