WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, prior to the date hereof, the Indemnitors were the management team of Shogun Energy, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vanity (“Shogun”);

WHEREAS, on December 31, 2010, Vanity entered into a share exchange agreement (“Exchange Agreement”) by and among Vanity, Shogun, Mr. Knapp and the other shareholders of Shogun (the “Shogun Shareholders” and collectively with Mr. Knapp, the “Shareholders”) pursuant to which the Shareholders exchanged an aggregate of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Shogun in exchange for 500,000 shares of Vanity’s series A preferred stock (the “Exchange”); and
 
WHEREAS, on or about the date hereof, Vanity entered into a rescission of the share exchange agreement (“Rescission Agreement”) by and among Vanity, Shogun, Mr. Knapp, Roxanne Knapp and the other shareholders of Shogun pursuant to which the parties have agreed, among other things, to rescind the Rescission Agreement (the “Rescission”).
 
NOW, THEREFORE, as partial consideration for the execution of the Rescission Agreement by Vanity, the Indemnitors hereby covenant and agree as follows:

1.              Indemnitors, shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Vanity and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors, and any of their agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Exchange Agreement and the Rescission Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (each, an “Indemnified Liability” and collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Indemnitors or Shogun in the Exchange Agreement and the Rescission Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Indemnitors or the Shogun contained in the Exchange Agreement and the Rescission Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of Vanity) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Exchange Agreement and the Rescission Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, or (ii) any claims made by investors in a financing transaction based upon any matter relating to Vanity that occurred on or prior to the date hereof or (d) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by any government or any agency, bureau, board, commission, court, department, official, political subdivision, tribunal or other instrumentality of any government (“Government Entity”) arising out of or resulting from any failure by Shogun (i) to timely pay any national, provincial or local income, sales and use, excise, franchise, real and personal property, gross receipt, capital stock, production, business and occupation, disability, employment, payroll, severance or withholding tax or charge imposed by any Government Entity, any interest and penalties (civil or criminal) related thereto or to the nonpayment thereof, and any loss or tax liability incurred in connection with the determination, settlement or litigation of any tax liability arising therefrom (“Taxes”) due and payable thereby (or subject to withholding and remittance thereby), (ii) to timely file any tax return, declaration, reports, estimates, claim for refund, claim for extension, information returns, or statements relating to Taxes, including any schedule or attachment thereto (“Tax Return”), (iii) to comply with any applicable law relating to Taxes.

2.           Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any Indemnitors under this Indemnification Agreement, deliver to the Indemnitors a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the Indemnitors shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Indemnitors so desire, jointly with any other Indemnitors similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitors and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one counsel for such Indemnitee to be paid by the Indemnitors, if the named parties to such proceeding include both the Indemnitors and the Indemnitee and, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnitee, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnitee and the Indemnitors would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding.  The Indemnitee shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitors in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the Indemnitors and shall furnish to the Indemnitors all information reasonably available to the Indemnitee which relates to such action or claim.  The Indemnitors shall keep the Indemnitee fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto.  No Indemnitor shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the Indemnitors shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent.  No Indemnitor shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnitee.  Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the Indemnitors shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made.  The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnitors within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such Indemnitors of any liability to the Indemnitee, except to the extent that the Indemnitors is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

3.           The indemnification required by this Indemnification Agreement shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the defense against any of the Indemnified Liabilities, reasonably promptly upon the receipt by such Indemnitee of written bills (with such appropriate supporting information as is reasonably requested by the Indemnitors that damages have been incurred and the amount thereof (together with such appropriate supporting information as is reasonably requested by the Indemnitors); provided that the Indemnitee, as applicable, shall reimburse all such payments to the extent it is finally judicially determined that such Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

4.           To the extent that the undertaking by the Indemnitors hereunder may be unenforceable for any reason, the Indemnitors shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.
 
5.           All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications under this Indemnification Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given upon receipt by the parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice):
