that Securities Act. Consultant agrees that during the term of this Agreement, it will not sell or transfer any of the Restricted
Shares, registered or unregistered, issued to it by the Company hereunder, except to the Company; nor will it pledge or assign
such Restricted Shares as collateral or as security for the performance of any obligation, or for any other purpose. The Company
was formerly a “shell company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”). Pursuant to Rule 144(i), securities issued by a former shell company (such as the Restricted Shares)
that otherwise meet the holding period and other requirements of Rule 144 nevertheless cannot be sold in reliance on Rule 144 unless
at the time of a proposed sale pursuant to Rule 144, the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act and has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act,
as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and
materials), other than Form 8-K reports.  As a result, the restrictive legends on certificates for the Restricted Shares cannot
be removed except in connection with an actual sale meeting the foregoing requirements or pursuant to an effective registration
statement.
