6.12           Price Adjustment.   For a period of eighteen months after the Closing, if the Company closes on the sale or issuance of Common Stock at a sale price, or warrants, options, convertible debt or equity securities with a exercise or conversion price per share which is less than the purchase price per share of Common Stock then the Investors will be issued additional shares of Common Stock by application of the weighted average method.  For purpose of determining the exercise price of warrants issued by the Company, the purchase price, if any, paid per share for the warrants shall be added to the exercise price of the warrants.

 

6.13           Insider Selling.  No Restricted Stockholders (as defined below) may sell any shares of Common Stock in the public market prior to the earlier of 24 months from the initial Closing Date or the Restriction Termination Date; provided, however, that if any Restricted Stockholder who is a director (and not an executive officer of the Company) shall cease to be a director, such Person may sell not more than a total of 50,000 shares of Common Stock in the public market during the period set forth in this sentence.  “Restricted Stockholders” shall mean any Person who is an officer, director or Affiliate of the Company on the date hereof or who becomes an officer or director of the Company subsequent to the initial Closing Date.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Restricted Stockholders shall not, directly or indirectly, offer to sell, grant an option for the purchase or sale of, transfer, pledge assign, hypothecate, distribute or otherwise encumber or dispose of any securities in the Company in a transaction which is not in the public market unless the transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 6.14.

The Lead Investor and the Investors shall not be considered Restricted Stockholders.

 

6.14           Employment and Consulting Contracts. For three years after the initial Closing, the Company shall obtain approval from the Board of Directors that any awards other than salary are customary, appropriate and reasonable for any officer, director or consultants whose compensation is more than $100,000 per annum.  This Section 6.15 does not apply to attorneys, accountants and other persons who provide professional services to the Company.

 

6.15           Deliveries of Make Good Escrow Shares based on Net Income.

 

6.15.1                       The Company hereby represents to the Investors that the Company’s Net Income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010 shall be at least $14,810,000 (the “2010 Target Number”).   As the Investors are relying on such expected profit in making their investment hereunder, and in order to attempt to make whole the Investors in the event these numbers are not met,  the Company shall deliver to the Escrow Agent at the Closing the Make Good Escrow Shares.

 

6.15.2                        In the event the Company’s Net Income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 is less than the 2010 Target Number, the “2010 Percentage Shortfall” shall be computed by dividing the amount of the shortfall by the 2010 Target Number. Thus, for example, if the Company had Net Income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010 of $10,000,000 (representing a shortfall of $4,810,000 million), the 2010 Percentage Shortfall would be 32.47% ($4,810,000 million divided by $14,810,000).

6.15.3                        If the 2010 Percentage Shortfall is equal to or greater than 10%, then the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Make Good Escrow Shares to the Investors (in the ratio of their initial purchase of Common Stock) as follows:

 

6.15.4                        the Investors shall receive 50,000 shares of Common Stock for each one percent percentage of the 2010 Percentage Shortfall up to a maximum of  2,000,000 shares.  For example if the 2010 Percentage Shortfall was 34.47% the Investors would get 1,723,500 shares (i.e 34.47 times 50,000)

 

6.15.5                        In the event the Net Income for the year ended December 31, 2011 is less than $25,000,000 (the “2011 Target Number”) the “2011 Percentage Shortfall” shall be computed by dividing the amount of the shortfall by the 2011 Target Number.

 

6.15.6                        If the 2011 Percentage Shortfall is equal to or greater than ten percent (10%), then the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Make Good Escrow Shares to the Investors (in the ratio of their initial purchase of Common Stock) as follows: the Investors shall receive 50,000 shares of Common Stock for each one percent percentage of the 2011 Percentage Shortfall up to a maximum of  2,000,000 shares less whatever shares were paid out as a result of any 2010 Percentage Shortfall.

 

6.15.7                        The distribution of shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section shall be made within five (5) business days after the Company files its Form 10-K for December 31, 2010 with the SEC and for December 31, 2011, as the case may be.

 

6.15.8                        The parties understand that, pursuant to the Securities Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent will not make any deliveries of shares without the signed written instructions from the Company and the Investors.

 

6.16           No Outside Interests.  The Company’s chairman, chief executive officer and chief financial officer will devote their full time and attention to the business of the Company and shall not have any business interests or activities other than as chairman, chief executive officer or chief financial officer, as the case may be, except that he or she may devote time, which shall not be material and which shall not interfere with his or her duties as the Company’s chairman, chief executive officer or chief financial officer, as the case may be, to personal passive investments and charitable and community activities.

 

6.17           Related Party Transactions.   For so long as that the Investors continue to own in the aggregate at least 25% of the Common Stock issued hereunder, all transactions with “related persons” (as defined by Item 404 of Regulation S-K) shall require the approval of the Board of Directors comprised of a majority of independent directors.
