For purposes of this definition, control of an entity means the power, directly or indirectly, to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such entity whether by contract, securities ownership or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” shall have the respective meanings correlative to the foregoing.

“Common Stock” shall mean common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company.

2.   Agreement to Vote Shares; Irrevocable Proxy. The Holder hereby appoints Robert D’Loren, or in the event that Robert D’Loren is not the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, such person as the Board of Directors of the Company may appoint after the date of this Agreement (the “Proxy Holder”) its proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote or act by written consent during the term of this Agreement with respect to the Xcel Shares. Holder shall take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy and limited power of attorney. The proxy and limited power of attorney granted hereunder by Holder shall be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by Holder with respect to the matters contemplated hereunder. The power of attorney granted by Holder herein is a limited durable power of attorney and shall survive the dissolution, bankruptcy, death or incapacity of the Holder. The proxy and limited power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement. All parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Proxy Holder shall, and the Holder hereby irrevocably consents to, vote all Xcel Shares owned by the Holder in favor of matters recommended or approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, or, if such matters are neither recommended nor approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, then at the direction of the Board of Directors of the Company, in respect of all matters for which stockholder approval is sought or required.

3.   No Voting Trusts or Other Arrangements. The Holder agrees that it shall not, and shall not permit any entity under its control to, grant any proxies with respect to the Xcel Shares or subject any of the Xcel Shares to any arrangement with respect to the voting of the Xcel Shares other than pursuant to this Agreement.

4.   Transfer and Encumbrance.

(a)        The Holder represents and warrants that (i) Holder shall not grant any Liens on the Xcel Shares, other than those that may be created by the Purchase Agreement or the Lock-Up Agreement; (ii) Holder shall not grant any options, warrants or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character relating to the pledge, disposition or voting of the Xcel Shares; and (iii) Holder shall not enter into any voting trusts or voting agreements with respect to the Xcel Shares, other than this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement. The Holder represents and warrants as of the date of this Agreement (i) that Holder has full power and authority to enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform fully the Holder’s obligations hereunder, and (ii) this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Holder in accordance with its terms. The Holder covenants that the representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of the date of the issuance of each Xcel Share, if additional shares are ever issued.

(b)        In the event the Holder desires to Transfer any Xcel Shares to one or more partners or members of such Holder, if applicable, or to an Affiliate of such Holder (in each case, a “Related Party”), such Holder may Transfer such Xcel Shares only if, as precondition to such Transfer, the Related Party agrees in writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company and Proxy Holder, to be bound by this Agreement.

5.   No Obligation of Company. Nothing in this Agreement constitutes an obligation of the Company to issue any Xcel Shares, and the Holder acknowledges and agrees that the determination of issuance of any Xcel Shares shall be made in accordance with the Purchase Agreement or other agreement with the Company.

6.   Specific Performance. Each party hereto acknowledges that (i) it will be difficult to measure in money the damage to the other party if a party hereto fails to comply with any of the obligations imposed by this Agreement and (ii) in the event of any such failure, the other party will not have an adequate remedy at law or damages. Accordingly, each party hereto agrees that injunctive relief or other equitable remedy, in addition to remedies at law or damages, is the appropriate remedy for any such failure and will not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that the other party has an adequate remedy at law. Each party hereto agrees that it will not seek, and agrees to waive any requirement for, the securing or posting of a bond in connection with any other party’s seeking or obtaining such equitable relief.

7.   Entire Agreement. The Purchase Agreement, the Related Agreements and this Agreement supersede all prior agreements, written or oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and contains the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended or supplemented, and no provisions hereof may be modified or waived, except by an instrument in writing signed by all the parties hereto. No waiver of any provisions hereof by any party shall be deemed a waiver of any other provision hereof by any such party, nor shall any such waiver be deemed a continuing waiver of any provision hereof by such party.
