 Dear Stockholder: 
  
 As a condition to Solomon Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) filing
a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Registration Statement”) and commencing a trading market in its securities, the undersigned stockholder hereby agrees
not to offer to sell, contract to sell or otherwise sell, dispose of, loan, pledge or grant any rights with respect to (collectively, a “Disposition”) any shares of common stock, any options or warrants to purchase any shares of common
stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of common stock (collectively, “Securities”), owned directly by the undersigned or with respect to which the undersigned has the power of disposition (whether individually
or jointly, or for the undersigned’s own account, as a fiduciary or otherwise), determined as of the Effective Date (as defined herein) for a period of one (1) year from the date the Registration Statement is declared effective (“Effective
Date”) by the SEC (“Lock-Up Period”). 
  
 Any of
the restrictions in this agreement may be waived, in whole or in part, with the prior written consent of the Company. The undersigned agrees that the Company may issue “stop transfer” instructions to the transfer agent to enforce the
provisions of this agreement and the certificates representing the Securities subject to this agreement may contain a restrictive legend describing the terms contained herein stating substantially the following: 
  
 “The securities evidenced by this certificate are subject to a Lock-Up
Agreement dated August 8, 2003 between the holder of this certificate and Solomon Technologies, Inc., a copy of which is on file with Solomon Technologies, Inc. and may not be sold, conveyed, encumbered, hypothecated or otherwise transferred except
with the prior written consent of Solomon Technologies, Inc” 
  
 The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the holder of the Securities from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or reasonably expected to lead to or result in a Disposition of Securities during
the Lock-Up Period even if such Securities would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale (whether or not against the box) or any purchase,
sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any put or call option) with respect to any Securities or with respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that includes, relates to or derives any significant
part of its value from Securities.
