NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual promises and agreement hereinafter set forth, it is agreed as follows:


 


1. Payment of Accrued Compensation in Shares and Cash.  Conditional on completion of the Equity Financing, on the closing date of the Equity Financing the Company shall promptly pay Executive a cash payment in the amount equal to Executive’s Accrued Compensation multiplied by a percentage equal to the highest marginal federal individual income tax rate plus Executive’s share of applicable state, local and/or employment taxes (the “Cash Compensation”).  In addition, conditional on completion of the Equity Financing, on the closing date of the Equity Financing the Company shall promptly pay to Executive in the form of restricted common stock of the Company (the “Share Compensation”) the number of shares equal to (i) the Executive’s Accrued Compensation, minus the Cash Compensation, divided by (ii) the public offering price per share to be paid by investors in the Equity Financing, rounded to the nearest full share.


 


2. Termination.  This Agreement shall immediately terminate and shall have no force or effect, if the Equity Financing is not completed on or prior to August 31, 2011.


 


3. Miscellaneous.


 


a. Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by Florida law without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.


 


b. Non-Contravention.  Executive represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement do not and will not contravene, conflict with or otherwise violate the terms of any written or oral agreement among Executive and one or more third parties.


 


c. Arbitration.
