designees will be acquired for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution
of any part thereof, and that Buyer has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the
same. By executing this Agreement, Buyer further represents that Buyer does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or
arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of such
shares of VBF Common Stock. Buyer has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring such shares of VBF Common Stock.


4.2
Disclosure of Information. Buyer has had an opportunity to discuss VBF’s business, management, financial affairs and the
terms and conditions of the offering of the shares of VBF Common Stock to be acquired by Buyer with VBF’s management and has had
an opportunity to review VBF’s facilities. Buyer understands that such discussions, as well as any written information delivered
by VBF to Buyer, were intended to describe the aspects of VBF’s business which VBF believes to be material. Buyer reviewed SIGO
and VBF’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or OTC Markets, including all of Buyer’s audited financial
statements, current reports, and material quarterly and annual disclosures. further acknowledges and agrees that its purchase of the restricted
securities involves risks. Buyer (i) either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment, and make an informed decision to so invest,
and has so evaluated the risks and merits of such investment; (ii) has the ability to bear the economic risks of this investment and can
afford a complete loss of such investment; (iii) understands the terms of, and the risks associated with the acquisition of the restricted
shares, including, without limitation, a lack of liquidity, price transparency or pricing availability and risks associated with the industry
in which VBF operates; and, (iv) has had the opportunity to review such disclosures regarding its business, financial condition and its
prospects as Buyer determined to be necessary in connection with the acquisition of the VBF Common Stock. Buyer is an “accredited
investor" as that term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Securities and Exchange Act.


4.3
Restricted Securities. Buyer understands that the shares of VBF Common Stock to be acquired by Buyer have not been registered
under the Securities Act. Buyer understands that the shares of VBF Common Stock are being issued to Buyer pursuant to Section 4(2) under

4.4
Rule 144. Buyer is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits
limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from
an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Buyer understands that VBF provides
no assurances as to whether it will be able to resell any or all of the shares of VBF Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144, which rule requires,

of securities take place only after the holder of the shares has held the shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain
circumstances, that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding
this Section, Buyer acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set forth in Section 4.5 below.

Resale Securities Restrictions. Buyer further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are
not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A promulgated under the Securities Act, or some other
registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the staff of the Securities
and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that Persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered
offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration
is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at

the Indemnified Person shall in that case jointly assume the defense thereof. If in the reasonable good faith opinion of any Indemnified
Person a conflict of interest exists in respect of such claim (including that the Indemnified Person has defenses available to it that
may conflict with those of the Indemnifying Person), such Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel to represent
such Indemnified Person and in that event the legal fees and expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with
the defense thereof shall be paid by the




    	18 



    	 



    

 


Indemnifying
Person. If the Indemnifying Person assumes such defense, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof
and, at its own expense, to employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Person, separate from the counsel employed by the
Indemnifying Person, it being understood that the Indemnifying Person shall control such defense. The Indemnifying Person shall be liable
for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Person for any period during which the Indemnifying Person has not assumed
the defense thereof. The Indemnified Person shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Person in the defense or settlement thereof, and the
Indemnifying Person shall reimburse the Indemnified Person for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. The
Indemnifying Person shall not, in the defense of a third party claim, make any payment of any of such claims, consent to the entry of
any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to any third party claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the judgment or proposed settlement (i) involves only the payment
of money damages and does not involve any finding or admission of any violation of Law, (ii) includes, as an unconditional term thereof,
a release of such Indemnified Person given by the claimant or the plaintiff from any liabilities arising from such Third Party Claim,
and (iii) does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief, directly or indirectly, upon such Indemnified Person or result in an
admission of any wrongdoing by the Indemnified Person. If the Indemnifying Person fails to vigorously defend the Third Party Claim, then
the Indemnified Person will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Person, the Third Party Claim by
all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be prosecuted by the Indemnified Person (with the consent of the Indemnifying Person,
which consent will not be unreasonable withheld conditioned or delayed), but only to the extent that the Indemnified Person is entitled
to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE 7.


		7.5	Procedures Relating to Indemnification for Non-Third-Party Claims.  In order for an Indemnified
Person to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim or demand
that is not a Third-Party Claim, such Indemnified Person must provide the Indemnifying Person with a Claim Notice; provided, however,
that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except, and solely to the extent that,
the Indemnifying Person shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure provided. The Claim Notice shall
set forth the amount, if known, or, if not known, an estimate of the foreseeable maximum amount of claimed Losses (which estimate shall
not be conclusive of the final amount of such Losses) and a description of the basis for such claim. The Indemnifying Person will have
thirty (30) days from receipt of such Claim Notice to dispute the claim and will reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnified Person
in determining the validity of the claim for indemnification. If the Indemnifying Person does not give notice to the Indemnified Person
that it disputes such claim (which such dispute notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the reasons for such dispute) within thirty
(30) days after its receipt of the Claim Notice, the claim specified in such Claim Notice shall be conclusively deemed a Loss subject
to indemnification hereunder.



		7.6	Survival of Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements.  The representations
and warranties of VBF, SIGO and Livacich contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing and
remain in full force (i) indefinitely, including, without limitation, with respect to Section 3.1 (Organization, Power, Standing),
Section 3.2 (Authorization and Approval of Agreements), and Section 3.7 (Leased Real Property; Tangible Property; Title
to Acquired Assets), (ii) for a period of sixty (60) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including
extensions), with respect to matters covered by Section 3.9 (Tax Matters), and (iii) for a period of twenty-four (24) months following
the Closing Date with respect to all other representations, warranties and covenants, except that any representation or warranty that
would otherwise terminate and will continue to survive if a written notice of a breach thereof shall have been timely given to the breaching
party by the other party on or prior to such termination date, until the related claim for indemnification is satisfied or otherwise resolved
as





    	19 



    	 



    

 


		7.7	provided in this ARTICLE 7. The representations and warranties of Buyer or Buyer contained in this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing and remain in full force (x) indefinitely, with respect to Section
4.1 (Organization, Corporate Power, Authority), Section 4.2 (Authorization of Agreement), and (y) for a period of period of
twenty-four (24) months following the Closing Date with respect to all other representations, warranties and covenants, except that any
representation or warranty that would otherwise terminate in accordance with clause (x) and (y) will continue to survive if a written
notice of a breach thereof shall have been timely given to the breaching party by the other party on or prior to such termination date,
until the related claim for indemnification is satisfied or otherwise resolved as provided in this ARTICLE 7.



		7.8	Sole Remedy. Provided that Closing has occurred, except with respect to claims related to
fraud or willful misconduct, claims made pursuant to this ARTICLE 7 shall constitute the sole remedy for Losses under the terms
of this Agreement and in connection with the Transactions.



		7.9	Right to Indemnification. The rights of Buyer to indemnification or any other remedy under
this Agreement shall not be impacted or limited by any knowledge that Buyer may have acquired, or could have acquired, whether before
or after the Closing Date, nor by any investigation or diligence by Buyer. VBF hereby acknowledges that, regardless of any investigation
made (or not made) by or on behalf of Buyer, and regardless of the results of any such investigation, Buyer has entered into the Transactions
in express reliance upon the representations and warranties of VBF and SIGO made in this Agreement.



		7.10	Characterization of Indemnification Payments. The Parties shall treat any indemnification
payment made pursuant to this Article 7 as an adjustment to the purchase price unless the Indemnified Person provides an opinion
of a nationally recognized tax counsel that any such amount will not constitute an adjustment to the purchase price for federal income
tax purposes.
