 R E C I T A L S
 A.
 WHEREAS Optionee and Optionor entered into a Membership Interest Option Agreement effective February 28, 2015, and the parties wish to amend such agreement to extend the Option Term and to reflect changes in certain other financial terms being made primarily in contemplation of additional capital contribution and the granting of additional membership interests.
 B.
 Optionee desires to be granted from Optionor, and Optionor desires to grant to Optionee, an option to acquire all of the membership interests in the Optionor (the “Membership Interests”) for the price and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein are defined in accordance with the Sale Agreement entered contemporaneously herewith between Optionor and Optionee.
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and representations set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
 1.
 Recitals.  The recitals set forth above in Paragraph A are true and correct and are hereby incorporated herein.
 2.
 Options.

 Grant of Option.  Optionor hereby grants an irrevocable option during the Option Term, as defined below, (the “Option”) to Optionee to purchase from Optionor all the Membership Interests, which can be exercised as set forth below.  The Optionee shall not have the right to exercise the Option for less than all of the outstanding Membership Interests.
 (b)
 Exercise of Option.  Optionee shall have the right to exercise the Option to purchase the Membership Interests at any time beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the date that is two (2) years from the Effective Date (the “Option Term”) by sending an option notice, as described below, to Optionor hereunder (the date of such option notice shall be referred to herein as the  “Exercise Date”).
 (c)
 Option Notice.  In the event that Optionee desires to exercise the Option, Optionee shall send written notice to Optionor that Optionee is exercising the Option 
  
 

 

 

 
 

 to purchase the Membership Interests hereunder.  Optionor shall send notice to its members within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such notice. 
 (d)
 Closing.  The closing of a purchase of the Membership Interests after the timely exercise of an Option hereunder (the “Option Closing”), shall take place at the offices of the Optionor at such time as Optionor and Optionee shall mutually agree, which in no event shall be later than the date that is thirty (30) days following the timely exercise of the Option hereunder.
 (e)
 Distributions. The Option granted hereby does not prevent or encumber or affect in any respect any distribution by the Optionor to its members of the preferred return (equal to an annual rate of 30% of each Optionor member’s capital contribution to the Company) (the “Preferred Return”) accruing prior to the Option Closing.
 (f)
 Sale of Customer Accounts.  Subject to the Right of First Refusal (as hereinafter defined), Optionor agrees that it shall retain ownership of the customer accounts, attached on Exhibit A hereto (the “Customer Accounts”), for not less than six (6) months from the Effective Date, provided that a notice of offer shall not be delivered by Optionor to Optionee earlier than six (6) months after the Effective Date. Optionor may sell the Customer Accounts thereafter to a third party (“Third Party”) in a bona fide transaction.  In the event of sale of the Customer Accounts by the Optionor, an amount equal to the Option Price (or lesser sale proceeds), excluding any accounting fees, shall be distributed to the members of the Optionor at the time of such sale, and Optionee shall have no right to prevent such distribution to members of Optionor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Optionee shall continue to have an Option on membership interests (to acquire Optionor, including the undistributed sale proceeds in excess of the amount to be distributed as contemplated by this Section 2(f)). 
 (g)
 Encumbering Membership Interests.  During the Option Term, and until the Option Closing in the event of a timely exercise of the Option hereunder, neither Optionor nor its members will (i) encumber any of the assets or membership interests of Optionor to any party, other than Optionee or (ii) incur any liability whatsoever, whether actual or contingent, other than per the terms and provisions of the Operating Agreement and the Management Services Agreement between Optionor and Optionee dated of even date herewith (the “Management Agreement”). 
 (h)
 Liens on Optionor’s Assets.  To accommodate the exercise of the Option by Optionee, Optionor shall not place a lien on the Customer Accounts. 
 3.
 Payment.
 (a)
 Purchase Price.  The purchase price (the “Option Price”) for the Membership Interests to be purchased pursuant to this Agreement shall be equal to the sum of: (i) all of Optionor’s members’ initial capital contributions (which shall not be less than the purchase price for the Customer Accounts); (ii) $100,000 in additional capital arising from that certain Agreement to Amend dated December ____, 2015 between Optionor and Optionor’s members, to the extent this amount is not duplicated as

 4.
 Right of First Refusal.  Optionor grants to Optionee a right of first refusal on any sale of the Customer Accounts by Optionor (the “Right of First Refusal”).  Optionee shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the Customer Accounts at a purchase price and on those terms and conditions equal to that purchase price and those terms and conditions offered to Optionor by a third party in an arm’s length transaction (“Third Party Offer”).  Optionor shall give written notice to Optionee of a bona fide Third Party Offer.  Such notice shall detail the purchase price and other material terms and conditions. Optionee shall have one hundred and twenty (120) days from the date of such written notice to exercise its Right of First Refusal or the Option (and retain the Customer Accounts).
