AGREEMENT
In consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:
1. Definitions.
1.01. Shares shall mean any shares now outstanding or hereafter issued of the Companys Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share; and shall further include any other shares of capital stock of the Company of any nature hereafter issued or issuable in substitution for such shares; and any other rights to any other equity or convertible equity of the Company.
1.02. Shareholders shall mean each Person, other than CC, who has executed this Agreement and each Person who is required to become a party to this Agreement in the future in accordance with the terms hereof.
1.03. CC Nominee shall mean Laird Q. Cagan, or any other individual reasonably acceptable to the Shareholders and requested by CC, to be appointed as director of the Company.
2. Election of CC Director.
2.01. During the term hereof, each of the Shareholders shall vote all Shares owned or held of record by such Shareholder, in order to elect the CC Nominee as a Director of the Company.
2.02.

1

All Shareholders shall cause to be removed any director who does not resign upon receipt of such notice.
3. Transfer of Shares.
3.01. No transfer or attempted transfer of any Shares shall be effective unless such Shares shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and unless and until the proposed transferee shall accept the terms and conditions of this Agreement by executing and delivering to the Company a Statement of Acceptance in the form reasonable acceptable to CC (the Statement of Acceptance). Upon the execution and delivery of the Statement of Acceptance, the transferee thereafter shall be deemed to be a Shareholder under this Agreement
3.02. The Company shall not transfer or reissue any Shares in violation of this Agreement or without proof of compliance herewith, and shall not issue, transfer or reissue any Shares (whether or not previously issued) unless they shall be restricted as herein provided by the proposed transferees acceptance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement as evidenced by the execution and delivery of a Statement of Acceptance in the form reasonably acceptable to CC. Upon the execution and delivery of the Statement of Acceptance, the transferee thereafter shall be deemed to be a Shareholder under this Agreement.
3.03. Any transfer or attempted transfer made in violation of this Agreement shall be void.
3.04 Except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, no Shareholder (nor its Permitted Transferees (as defined in Section 3.05)) may transfer any of its Shares (which, for purposes of this Agreement, shall include any hereinafter acquired shares of stock of the Company and this prohibition shall apply to any Permitted Transferee (as defined in Section 3.05) hereof), during the term of this Agreement.

Each Shareholder severally represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the Company that such Shareholder has not granted, and will not grant, any options, warrants, or rights to purchase any of its Shares which have either been issued or authorized by the Company for issuance.
3.05 The restrictions contained in this Agreement shall not apply with respect to any Transfer of Shares (the Transferred Shares) owned by a Shareholder (the Transferor) to any member of such Transferors Family Group (as defined herein) (collectively, the Permitted Transferees); provided, however, that in the case of a Transfer under this Section 3.05 then a Terminating Event (defined below) with respect to the Transferor shall cause the provisions of Section 5 to apply to the Transferred Shares and the Transferor shall continue to vote the Shares of the transferee as described in Section 2.

2
member, partner, or stockholder of a Shareholder or of an entity established by a Shareholder under clause (B). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto shall avoid the provisions of this Agreement by making one or more transfers to one or more Permitted Transferees and then disposing of all or any portion of such partys interest in any such Permitted Transferee.

3
