In order to induce the Lenders to enter into the Loan Agreement and make the Additional Advances thereunder, the Parties hereto do agree as follows:





1.           Purchase of Founders Shares.





(a)           On the Closing Date and simultaneous with the Closing Date Advance under the Loan Agreement, the Lenders or one or more persons or entities designated by the Lenders (the “Purchasers”)
shall purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 Founders Shares from each of Klaus and Mann, and the Founders shall each sell to the Purchasers an aggregate of 1,000,000 of their Founders Shares.





(b)           The purchase price for such 2,000,000 Founders Shares shall be $0.25 per share, or an aggregate of $500,000 (the “Purchase Price”).





(c)           Such Purchase Price shall be paid by the Purchasers on the Closing Date as follows:





(i)           $25,000 shall be paid in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to each of the Founders to accounts designated by them, or a total of $50,000; and





(ii)           the balance of such Purchase Price shall be paid by delivery to each of the Founders of a non-interest bearing $225,000 principal amount promissory note, in the form of Exhibit
A annexed hereto and made a part hereof (the “Purchase Notes”).





(iii)           Payment of the Purchase Notes shall be secured by a pledge of the 2,000,000 Founders shares being purchased pursuant to the Pledge Agreement in the form of Exhibit
B annexed hereto and made a part hereof (the “Pledge Agreement”).





(d)           On the Closing Date, in consideration of payment to the Founders of the Purchase Price, each of the Founders shall deliver stock certificates of the Borrower representing 2,000,000 Founders Shares, duly endorsed in blank
for transfer or accompanied by stock powers duly executed by each of the Founders in blank for transfer, to the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Pledge Agreement).





2.           Investors Option.





(a)           On the Closing Date and simultaneous with the Closing Date Advance, each of the Founders do hereby grant to Lenders an option to purchase the “Investors Option Shares” described below (the “Investors
Option”).   On or subsequent to the Closing Date, the Lenders shall have the absolute right to assign the Investors Option to any one or more persons or entities designated by the Lenders.





(b)           The Investors Option shall be allocated among the respective Investors in the percentages set forth on the signature page of this Agreement; provided, that any Investor may transfer or assign his or its allocable percentage
shares of Investor Option to any other Investor .





(c)           The Investors Option shall be exercisable by the Investors at any time or from time to time, commencing on the Closing Date and ending at 4 pm. New York time on December 31, 2009 (the “Investors

(d)           The Investors Option shall entitle all of the Investors to purchase from each of Founders up to 1,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Borrower, or an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of the
Borrower (the “Investors Option Shares”).  In the event and to the extent that the Investors Option is exercised, 50% of the 2,000,000 Investors Option Shares shall be purchased at the “Investors Option Price” set forth below from Klaus and 50% shall be purchased from Mann.





(e)            The Investors Option may be exercised by any one or more Investor upon ten (10) days prior written notice to the Founders and the Borrower (the “Option Exercise
Notice”); which Option Exercise Notice shall set forth the number of Investors Option Shares to be purchased.  Against delivery by the Founders of stock certificates of the Borrower, duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by stock powers executed in blank by each of the Founders, and representing the number of Investors Option Shares being purchased upon each exercise of the Investors Option, the Investors exercising such Investor Option shall pay the “Investors Option Price”
set forth below at a closing to be held not later than twenty (20) days following the date of the Option Exercise Notice (the “Option Exercise Closing”).  For the avoidance of doubt, the Founders shall not be required to deliver stock certificates representing the Investors Option Shares until such time as the Founders have received the Investors Option Price for such shares.





(f)           On each one or more occasion that the Investor Option shall be exercised, the applicable Investors shall pay to the Founders, a purchase price equal to $0.25 per share (the “Investors
Option Price”).   Such Investors Option Price shall be payable to such Founders at the Option Exercise Closing  by wire transfer of immediately available funds.





(g)           Adjustment of Investors Option Price. upon Subdivision or Combination of Class A Common Stock.  If the Borrower at any time after the date hereof subdivides
(by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of its Class A Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Investors Option Price  in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Class A Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of the Investor Option  will be proportionately increased.  If the Borrower  at any time after the date hereof  combines
(by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Investor Option Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Class A Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Investor Option  will be proportionately decreased.  Any adjustment under this Section 2(g) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision
or combination becomes effective.





(h)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, express or implied, contained in this Section 2, in the event that there exists an Event of Default (as defined in the Notes) (a “Note
Default”), the Founders (or either of them) shall have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate the Investors Option; provided, however, that not later than five (5) calendar days following such Note Default, the Founders shall give to all of the Investors written notice of any such Note Default by the Purchasers (the “Default Notice”), and
the Investors shall have the right (but not the obligation) for a period of twenty-five (25) calendar days following receipt of each such Default Notice to make the applicable payment to cure such Note Default and thereby retain the Investors Option for the duration of the Investors Option Term.





(i)           In the event that any one or more Investors elect to cure a Note Default, as provided in Section 2(h) above, the Collateral Agent under the Pledge Agreement shall transfer an applicable number of Founders Shares to the Investor(s)
electing to cure such Note Default.
