The Eco-Tek Shareholders have read, understood and consulted with their legal counsel regarding the limitations and requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).  The Eco-Tek Shareholders will offer, sell, pledge, convey or otherwise transfer the Shares, or any portion thereof, only if: (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act and any and all applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws or in a transaction which is otherwise in compliance with the 1933 Act and such laws; or (ii) pursuant to a valid exemption from registration.

The Eco-Tek Shareholders represent, acknowledge and warrant the following to the Company, except as set forth on the Eco-Tek Schedules (as hereinafter defined, which shall contain any exceptions or qualifications to the representations and warranties are set forth below), and agree that such representations, acknowledgements and warranties shall be automatically reconfirmed on the Closing Date:







(a) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder recognizes that the Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act, nor under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold unless the resale of the Shares is registered under the 1933 Act or unless an exemption from registration is available.  Each Eco-Tek Shareholder may not sell the Shares without registering them under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities laws unless exemptions from such registration requirements are available with respect to any such sale;









  





  











  






(b) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder is acquiring the Shares for its own account for long-term investment and not with a view toward resale, fractionalization or division, or distribution thereof, and it does not presently have any reason to anticipate any change in its circumstances, financial or otherwise, or particular occasion or event which would necessitate or require the sale or distribution of the Shares.  No one other than the Eco-Tek Shareholder will have any beneficial interest in said securities.  Each Eco-Tek Shareholder agrees to set forth the terms of its ownership, record address and tax id number if applicable on the Type of Ownership Form, attached hereto as Exhibit A;







(c) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder acknowledges that it:







a. is a “sophisticated investor”, and

Each Eco-Tek Shareholder acknowledges that due to its receipt of and review of the information described above, it has received similar information as would be included in a Registration Statement filed under the 1933 Act;







(d) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that the Eco-Tek Shareholder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares and of making an informed investment decision, and does not require a representative in evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares;







(e) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder recognizes that an investment in the Company is a speculative venture and that the total amount of consideration tendered in connection with the Exchange Offer is placed at the risk of the business and may be completely lost.  The ownership of the Shares as an investment involves special risks. Each Eco-Tek Shareholder has had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers regarding the Company and to request additional relevant information from a person or persons acting on behalf of the Company regarding such information; and has no pending questions as of the date of this Agreement;









  





  











  






(f) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder realizes that the Shares cannot readily be sold as they will be restricted securities and therefore the Shares must not be accepted in the Exchange Offer unless such Eco-Tek Shareholder has liquid assets sufficient to assure that such purchase will cause no undue financial difficulties and such Eco-Tek Shareholder can provide for current needs and possible personal contingencies;







(g) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder confirms and represents that it is able (i) to bear the economic risk of its investment, (ii) to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time, and (iii) to afford a complete loss of its investment.  Each Eco-Tek Shareholder also represents that it has (i) adequate means of providing for its current needs and possible personal contingencies, and (ii) has no need for liquidity in this particular investment;







(h) All information which each Eco-Tek Shareholder has provided to the Company concerning such Eco-Tek Shareholder's financial position and knowledge of financial and business matters is correct and complete as of the date hereof, and if there should be any material change in such information prior to the Closing Date,  such Eco-Tek Shareholder will immediately provide the Company with such information;







(i) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder has carefully considered and has, to the extent it believes such discussion necessary, discussed with its professional, legal, tax and financial advisors, the suitability of an investment in the Shares for its particular tax and financial situation and its advisers, if such advisors were deemed necessary, have determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for him, her, or it;







(j) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder has not become aware of and has not been offered the Shares by any form of general solicitation or advertising, including, but not limited to, advertisements, articles, notices or other communications published in any newspaper, magazine, or other similar media or television or radio broadcast or any seminar or meeting where, to such Eco-Tek Shareholder’s Knowledge, those individuals that have attended have been invited by any such or similar means of general solicitation or advertising;









  





  











  






(k) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder confirms and acknowledges that the Company is under no obligation to register or seek an exemption under any federal and/or state securities acts for any sale or transfer of the Shares by Eco-Tek Shareholders, and each Eco-Tek Shareholder is solely responsible for determining the status, in his, her or its hands, of the Shares acquired in connection herewith and the availability, if required, of exemptions from registration for purposes of sale or transfer of the Shares;







(l) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder confirms and acknowledges that no federal or state agency has made any finding or determination as to the fairness of the Shares for investment or any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares.  The Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act or the securities laws of any State and are being offered and sold in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and such state laws;







(m) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder confirms and acknowledges that such Eco-Tek Shareholder is aware of the fact that the Company currently has two (2) strikes (i.e., two previous late filings) with the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (the “OTCBB”) and that pursuant to OTCBB rules relating to the timely filing of periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), any OTCBB issuer which fails to file a periodic report (Form 10-Q or 10-K) by the due date of such report (not withstanding any extension granted to the issuer by the filing of a Form 12b-25), three times during any 24 month period is automatically de-listed from the OTCBB. Such removed issuer would not be re-eligible to be listed on the OTCBB for a period of one year, during which time any subsequent late filing would reset the one-year period of de-listing. Additionally, if a market maker fails to quote an issuer’s common stock on the OTCBB for a period of more than four consecutive days, such issuer will be automatically delisted from the OTCBB.  If the Company is late in its SEC filings one additional time prior to the filing of its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the Company will be delisted from the OTCBB and prohibited from relisting for a period of at least one year;


 


(n) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder represents, acknowledges and warrants his or her understanding that, pursuant to Rule 144 of the Act (“Rule 144”), a “shell company” is defined as a company that has no or nominal operations; and, either no or nominal assets; assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents; or assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets.  As such, the Company is a “shell company” pursuant to Rule 144, and resales of its securities pursuant to Rule 144 may not be made until all of the following criteria set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) have been met: (1) the Company has ceased to be a shell company, (2) the Company is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), (3) the Company has filed all of its required periodic reports (other than Form 8-K’s) for the prior one year period, and (4) a period of at least twelve months has elapsed from the date “Form 10 like information” was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) reflecting the Company’s status as a non-shell company.  As a result, because none of the Company’s securities can be resold pursuant to Rule 144 until at least a year after the Company has complied with Rule 144(i)(2), no non-registered or “restricted” shares of the Company’s common stock, including, but not limited to the Shares, will be able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 until and unless such securities are registered with the Commission, an exemption for the sales can be relied upon other than Rule 144 and/or until a year after the Company has complied with the requirements of Rule 144(i)(2) as described above.  As a result, the Eco-Tek Shareholder may never be able to sell any Securities.  Furthermore, as the Company may not ever comply with Rule 144(i)(2), the Eco-Tek Shareholder may be forced to hold such Securities indefinitely; and









  





  











  






(o) Each Eco-Tek Shareholder agrees and confirms that such Eco-Tek Shareholder may have Section 16 and Schedule 13D filing obligations with the SEC immediately upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and such Eco-Tek Shareholder agrees to take whatever action necessary to make and file such required filings with the SEC.

To Eco-Tek’s Knowledge, no Person has interfered with, infringed upon, misappropriated or otherwise come into conflict with any Intellectual Property rights of Eco-Tek.

ARTICLE VII


INDEMNIFICATION







Section 7.01 Indemnification by the Eco-Tek Shareholders.  Subject to the provisions of this Article, the Eco-Tek Shareholders agree to jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold the Company and its Affiliates, parents, stockholders, subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (such indemnified persons are collectively hereinafter referred to as “the Company Indemnified Persons”), harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage or deficiency (including interest, penalties, judgments, costs of preparation and investigation, and attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Losses”) that any of the Company Indemnified Persons may suffer, sustain, incur or become subject to arising out of or due to: (a) the non-fulfillment of any covenant, undertaking, agreement or other obligation of Eco-Tek or any other party (other than the Company) under this Agreement or any Schedule hereto; (b) any action taken by Eco-Tek prior to the Closing Date, or the operations of Eco-Tek prior to Closing; (c) any misstatement, breach of or inaccuracy of any representation of Eco-Tek or any Eco-Tek Shareholder in this Agreement; (d) the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Eco-Tek or Eco-Tek Shareholder in this Agreement; or (e) any liabilities of Eco-Tek which are not disclosed to the Company at or prior to Closing and which the Company is required to satisfy subsequent to Closing (including all fees and expenses associated therewith); provided however, that Eco-Tek and Eco-Tek Shareholders will not be liable under clause (d) of this Section 7.01 unless the aggregate amount of Losses exceeds $10,000 (the “Threshold”), in which event Eco-Tek or Eco-Tek Shareholders shall be liable for all Losses up to, including and exceeding the amount of the Threshold.  “Losses” as used in this Article is not limited to matters asserted by third parties, but includes Losses incurred or sustained in the absence of third party claims.  Payment is not a condition precedent to recovery of indemnification for Losses.







Section 7.02 Indemnification by the Company.  Subject to the provisions of this Article, the Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Eco-Tek Shareholders (the “Eco-Tek Indemnified Persons”), harmless from and against any and all Losses that any Eco-Tek Indemnified Person may suffer, sustain, incur or become subject to arising out of or due to: (a) the non-fulfillment of any covenant, undertaking, agreement or other obligation of the Company under this Agreement or; (b) any action taken by Eco-Tek and/or the operations of Eco-Tek after the Closing; which, however, does not include any action that was caused by or as a fault of an action which originally occurred prior to the Closing Date or could be partially attributed as a Loss to the Company under Section 7.01 of this Agreement; (c) any misstatement, breach of or inaccuracy of any material representation of the Company in this Agreement; or (d) the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Company in this Agreement provided however, that the Company will not be liable under clause (d) of this Section 7.02 unless the aggregate amount of Losses exceeds the Threshold, in which event the Company shall be liable for all Losses up to, including and exceeding the amount of the Threshold.  The Company shall in no event be responsible for indemnifying or defending any affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors or assigns of Eco-Tek or the Eco-Tek Shareholders following the Closing for any matter whatsoever.


 




  





  











  






Section 7.03 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.  The representations, warranties, covenants and other provisions of this Agreement which by their terms or by implication are to have continuing effect after the expiration or termination of this Agreement shall survive the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, and shall remain in full force and effect.


 


Section 7.04  Notice and Opportunity to Defend.  If a claim for Losses (a “Claim”) is to be made by any Company Indemnified Person or Eco-Tek Indemnified Person (any such indemnified person, hereinafter a “Claimant”) seeking indemnification hereunder, such Claimant shall notify the indemnifying party or parties (any such indemnifying party, a “Respondent”) promptly.  If such event involves (a) any claim or (b) the commencement of any action or proceeding by a third person, Claimant shall give Respondent written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action or proceeding as provided above.  Delay or failure to so notify Respondent shall only relieve Respondent of its obligation to the extent, if at all, that Respondent is prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure.  Respondent shall have a period of 30 days within which to respond thereto.  If Respondent accepts responsibility or does not respond within such 30 day period, then Respondent shall be obligated to compromise or defend, at its own expense and by counsel chosen by Respondent, which counsel shall be acceptable to such Company Indemnified Person or Eco-Tek Indemnified Person, as the case may be, such matter, and Respondent shall provide Claimant with such assurances as may be reasonably required by Claimant to assure that Respondent will assume and be responsible for the entire liability at issue.  If Respondent fails to assume the defense of such matter within said 30 day period, Claimant will (upon delivering notice to such effect to Respondent) have the right to undertake, at Respondent’s cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such matter on behalf of such Claimant.  The Claimant agrees to cooperate with Respondent and its counsel in the defense against any such asserted liability.  In any event, Claimant shall have the right to participate at its own expense in the defense of such asserted liability.  Any compromise of such asserted liability by Respondent shall require the prior written consent of Claimant, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld and in the event Claimant defends any such asserted liability, then any compromise of such asserted liability by Claimant shall require the prior written consent of Respondent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.


 


 




  





  











  






Section 7.05 Remedies Exclusive. The remedies conferred by this Article are intended to be exclusive of and shall supersede any other remedy available under law or at equity.


 


Section 7.06  Emergency Relief.   Notwithstanding anything in this Article to the contrary, either party may seek emergency relief from a court for any remedy that may be necessary to protect any rights or property of such party pending the establishment of the arbitral tribunal or its determination of the merits of the controversy.


 


Section 7.07 Right to Set Off.  In the event that the Company shall have a claim against any Eco-Tek Shareholder for which the Company has not been fully indemnified as contemplated above, the Company shall have the right to set off the amount of such claim against any Eco-Tek Shareholder, against any amounts due such Eco-Tek Shareholder hereunder or any other agreement or understanding by and between the Company and any Eco-Tek Shareholder.







ARTICLE VIII


CONFIDENTIALITY







Section 8.01 Confidentiality.  At all times after the Closing, each Eco-Tek Shareholder shall retain in strictest confidence, and shall not disclose to any third parties or use for their benefit (other than in order to fulfill the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) or for the benefit of others any confidential information comprising or related to the Company or any of the Company's Affiliates, Eco-Tek, or Eco-Tek’s property, including its Intellectual Property, including, without limitation, trade secrets, source code, customer lists, marketing plans or strategies, product development techniques or plans, or technologies (collectively “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall not include information which (i) is or becomes part of the public domain without breach of this Agreement, (ii) was known to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the other party (except in connection with information of Eco-Tek, which shall be considered Confidential Information for all purposes), (iii) is independently received by the receiving party without the use of confidential information, or (iv) is explicitly approved for release by written authorization of the disclosing party.  In the event that the receiving party is legally required to disclose any confidential information, the receiving party shall promptly notify the disclosing party of such requirement and, if requested by the disclosing party, shall reasonably cooperate in the disclosing party’s efforts to prevent or limit such disclosure.


 




  





  











  






8.02 Enforceability.


 


 


(a)  It is the desire and intent of the Parties that the provisions of Article VIII shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.  If any particular provision or portion of Article VIII shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, Article VIII shall be deemed amended to delete therefrom such provision or portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such amendment to apply only with respect to the operation of this Section 8.02 in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.  Eco-Tek and each Eco-Tek Shareholder agrees that it would be difficult to measure the damages to the Company and its affiliates from the breach by Eco-Tek or Eco-Tek Shareholders of the provisions of Article VIII, that injury to the Company from such breach would be impossible to calculate, and that monetary damages would therefore be an inadequate remedy; accordingly, Eco-Tek and the Eco-Tek Shareholders agree that the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other remedies it might have, to injunctions or other appropriate orders to restrain any such breach without showing or proving any actual damages.


 


(b) The undertakings and covenants of Eco-Tek and the Eco-Tek Shareholders contained in Article VIII are an integral part of the transactions set forth in this Agreement and the consideration paid by the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be consideration to include consideration for such undertakings and covenants.
