Restricted
Securities. Fund.com understands that the Units it is

Fund.com represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in

state statute, rule or regulation applicable to Fund.com. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the LLC Agreement, and

the parties agree to submit themselves to the personal jurisdiction of those
courts and not to raise any objection to venue being had in those

Agreement. Fund.com agrees to indemnify and to hold harmless the

asserted liability) for which Fund.com or any of its representatives is
responsible.
The
Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Fund.com from any liability for

which the Company or any of its officers, employees or representatives is
responsible.
7.9
Expenses. Irrespective
of whether the Closing is effected, each of the Company and Fund.com shall bear

entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and necessary disbursements in
addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled.
7.10

effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each holder of
any securities purchased under this Agreement at the time outstanding (including
securities into which such securities are convertible), each future holder of
all such securities, and the Company.
12
7.11
Publicity. Neither
the Company nor Fund.com may issue any public announcement relating to this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written
approval of the other party, except as required by law, based on advice of
counsel, in which case the parties will in good faith attempt to agree on any
public announcements or publicity statements. Fund.com shall have an
opportunity to review and modify any provisions of any government filing which
provision mentions it, and the Company agrees to confer with Fund.com in advance
of any material public disclosure that mentions Fund.com, provided Fund.com will
not unreasonably withhold or delay consent to such disclosure.
7.12
Severability. If
one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under
applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement and the
balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so
excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
7.13
Entire
Agreement. This Agreement and the documents referred to herein
constitute the entire agreement among the parties and no party shall be liable
or bound to any other party in any manner by any warranties, representations, or
covenants except as specifically set forth herein or therein.
Section 8. Indemnification.
8.1
Indemnification
of the Company and Fund.com. The Founder and Founder LLC,
severally and jointly, agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless each of the
Company and Fund.com and any of their affiliates (each, an “Indemnified Party”),
against and in respect of any and all actions, suits, proceedings, losses,
damages, claims, liabilities, demands, assessments, judgments, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (“Damages”), whether or
not incurred by an Indemnified Party, in connection with the matters set forth
on Section 8.1 of the Disclosure Schedule.
8.2
Notice and Opportunity
to Defend. If there occurs an event which an Indemnified Party
asserts is an indemnifiable event pursuant to Section 8.1, it shall notify the
Founder and Founder LLC (each, an “Indemnifying Party”)
promptly, but no later than ninety (90) days, after such indemnifiable event by
providing written notice of any claim, event or matter as to which indemnity may
be sought (a “Claim
Notice”). Each Claim Notice shall contain a reasonable
estimate of the Damages (each such estimate, a “Damage Estimate”)
against which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification, to the extent such
an estimate can be made. The failure of the Indemnified Party to give
notice as provided in this Section 8.2 shall not relieve any Indemnifying Party
of its obligations under this Section 8, except to the extent that such failure
materially prejudices the rights of any such Indemnifying Party. The
Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall not,
except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any
judgment or entry into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional
term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of
a release from all Liability in respect of such claim or
litigation. The Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any
such claim without prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnified Party
shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as the
Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably
required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting
therefrom.
8.3 Resolution of
Claims. In the event that any Indemnifying Party objects to
the amount of any Damages claimed in any Claim Notice or disputes the
Indemnifying Party’s liability therefor, the Indemnifying Party shall, prior to
thirty (30) calendar days following the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of such
Claim Notice (the “Response Date”),
deliver to the Indemnified Party a written notice (a “Response Notice”)
specifying in reasonable detail each amount set forth in such Claim Notice to
which the Indemnifying Party objects and the nature and basis for each such
objection. If the Indemnified Party shall not have received a
Response Notice prior to the Response Date, the Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed to the Claim Notice and to
have acknowledged the correctness of the amounts claimed therein and the
Indemnifying Party’s liability therefor. If the Indemnified Party
shall have received a Response Notice prior to the Response Date, the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall negotiate in good faith
concerning the related Claim Notice and the amounts claimed and other matters
set forth therein until such Claim Notice, amounts and matters shall have been
finally determined. A Claim Notice, any amounts claimed therein and
any other matters set forth therein shall be deemed to be “finally determined”
for purposes of this Agreement when such Claim Notice, amounts and matters have
been resolved (i) by a written agreement of the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party, or (ii) by order of a court having
jurisdiction.
8.4 Sole
Recourse. The sole recourse of any Indemnified Party for
indemnification under this Agreement shall be to (i) the interests in the
Company held by Founder LLC, (ii) the interests in Founder LLC held by the
Founder and (iii) the interests set forth on Section 8.4 of the Disclosure
Schedule held by the Founder.
13
8.5
Limitations on
Disposition of Interests. Until the matters set forth on
Section 8.1 of the Disclosure Schedule have been released and extinguished
pursuant to a written binding release between the parties thereto of all such
matters, (a) Founder LLC shall not sell, transfer, assign or
otherwise dispose (“Dispose”) any of its
interests in the Company, except for payment of solicitation agent services (b)
Founder shall not Dispose of any of his interests in Founder LLC, except for
estate planning purposes, (c) Founder LLC shall not issue any additional
interests, and (d) Founder shall not Dispose of any of the interests set forth
on Section 8.4 of the Disclosure Schedule held by him; except with respect to
clauses (c) and (d) of this Section 8.5, issuances or Dispositions,
respectively, to the Founder’s spouse, child (natural or adopted), or any other
direct lineal descendant or sibling thereof (or his spouse) (all of
the foregoing collectively referred to as “family members”), or any custodian or
trustee of any trust, partnership or limited liability company (or similar
vehicle) for the benefit of, or the ownership interests of which are owned
wholly by, the Founder or any such family members; provided, that the Founder
shall deliver prior written notice to the Company of such transfer and such
interest shall at all times remain subject to the terms and restrictions set
forth in this Agreement and such transferee shall, as a condition to such
issuance, deliver a counterpart signature page to this Agreement as confirmation
that such transferee shall be bound by all the terms and conditions of this
Agreement as the Founder (but only with respect to the securities so transferred
to the transferee); and provided, further, that in the case of
any such Disposition, such Disposition is made pursuant to a transaction in
which there is no consideration actually paid for such Disposition.

See
Disclosure for Section 3.3
2.10
(a)
The
Company has engaged the counsel of Morgan Lewis & Bockius LLP (“Morgan
Lewis”). The Company currently has outstanding obligations to Morgan Lewis in
excess of $25,000 ($149,439.62 as of August 31, 2008). The Morgan Lewis

Section 3
Representation and Warranties of the Founder and Founder LLC
3.3
The
Founder is currently engaged in the dispute resolution process as outlines in
the Operating Agreement for Arrow Investment Advisors, LLC. Arrow claims a
breach of fiduciary duty, and also asserts that the Company is a subsidiary of
Arrow. The Founder has rejected these claims and believes he has both the legal
and factual basis to support his position and satisfactorily address and counter
all such allegations. The Founder intends to pursue such legal action as may be
required to defend against any claims detrimental to the Founder and has engaged
counsel for this purpose. The Company and the Founder are currently considering
whether to commence legal action asserting their respective rights in connection
with the foregoing and related matters. The Founder has offered to make
available to Fund.com such information as it may require in connection with the
matters described in this paragraph, consistent with the Founder’s
confidentiality obligations to third parties and any requirement to preserve
attorney-client privilege.
