      LOCK-UP
AGREEMENT

       

      This
LOCK-UP AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated
as of April 22, 2010 by and among Silver Pearl Enterprises, Inc., a Nevada
corporation, (the “Company”), and
Delight Reward Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation (the “Affiliate”).

       

      WHEREAS,
the Company intends to consummate a private placement transaction with certain
accredited investors and/or qualified institutional buyers (the “Purchasers”), whereby
the Company will issue units (the “Units”), each
consisting of (i) nine shares of the Company’s 6% Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Shares”),
convertible into nine shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per
share (the “Common
Stock”), (ii) one share of Common Stock and (iii) a Series A Warrant (the
“Series A
Warrant”) and Series B Warrant (the “Series B Warrant”
and, together with the Series A Warrant, the “Warrants”), with each
of the Warrants exercisable to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock
equal to ten percent (10%) of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
underlying the Units and underlying the Preferred Shares purchased by each
Purchaser (the “Financing
Transaction”);

       

      WHEREAS,
in connection with the Financing Transaction, the Company entered into a
Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Purchase Agreement”),
by and among the Company and the Purchasers, and certain other agreements,
documents, instruments and certificates necessary to carry out the purposes
thereof (collectively, the “Transaction
Documents”); and

       

      WHEREAS,
in order to induce the Company and the Purchasers to enter into the Financing
Transaction, the Affiliates have agreed not to sell any shares of the Company’s
Common Stock that the Affiliates presently own on the date hereof, or may
acquire on or after the date hereof, except in accordance with the terms and
conditions set forth herein (collectively, the “Lock-Up Shares”).
Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings
assigned to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

       

      NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and conditions hereinafter
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

       

      1. Restriction on Transfer;
Term.

       

      (a) The
Affiliates hereby agree not to offer, sell, contract to sell, assign, transfer,
hypothecate, gift, pledge or grant a security interest in, or otherwise dispose
of, or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be
expected to, result in the disposition of (whether by actual disposition or
effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise, directly or
indirectly) (each, a “Transfer”), any of
the Lock-Up Shares until a date that is six (6) months following the date that
the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is
declared effective by the Commission (the “Lock-Up
Period”).  The Affiliates further agree that, during the twelve
(12) months immediately following the Lock-Up Period, any Affiliate shall not
Transfer more than one-twelfth (1/12) of such Affiliate’s total holdings of
Common Stock as of the date hereof during any one (1) calendar
month.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Affiliate shall be permitted
to engage in a Transfer in a private sale of the Lock-Up Shares, provided that
such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms of
this Agreement.

       

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          1

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

       

      (b) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in Section 1(a) above shall not apply
to (A) transfers (i) as a bona fide gift or gifts, provided that the donee or
donees thereof agree to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth
herein, (ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned
or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided that the trustee of the
trust agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and
provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for
value, (iii) with the prior written consent of the Purchasers holding a majority
of the Preferred Shares outstanding at such time, (iv) effected pursuant to any
exchange of “underwater” options with the Company or (v) to an affiliate or to
any wholly owned subsidiary of the Affiliate provided that such affiliate or
subsidiary agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein,
and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for
value, or (B) the acquisition or exercise of any stock option issued pursuant to
the Company’s stock option plans, including any exercise effected by the
delivery of Common Stock of the Company held by the undersigned.  For
purposes of this Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by
blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin. None of the
restrictions set forth in this Agreement shall apply to Common Stock acquired in
open market transactions.

       

      2. Ownership.  During
the Lock-Up Period, the Affiliates shall retain all rights of ownership in the
Lock-Up Shares, including, without limitation, voting rights and the right to
receive any dividends that may be declared in respect thereof, except as
otherwise provided in the Securities Escrow Agreement with respect to the Escrow
Shares (as defined in the Securities Escrow Agreement) whereby any benefits,
rights, title or otherwise may be transferred to and inure to the benefit of the
Purchasers.

       

      3. Company and Transfer
Agent.  The Company is hereby authorized and required to
disclose the existence of this Agreement to its transfer agent. The Company and
its transfer agent are hereby authorized and required to decline to make any
transfer of the Common Stock if such transfer would constitute a violation or
breach of this Agreement, the Securities Escrow Agreement and/or the Securities
Purchase Agreement.

       

      4. Notices.  All
notices, demands, consents, requests, instructions and other communications to
be given or delivered or permitted under or by reason of the provisions of this
Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be in
