2. Fees. As consideration for the services to be provided by GMVP hereunder, upon full execution of the Agreement NGBL shall issue to GMVP 2.5 billion shares of NGBL common stock (the “Securities”). The Securities shall not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and accordingly shall be considered restricted securities. The Parties shall execute a Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) in connection with this Agreement.
 
3. Term and Termination. Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time upon 10 business days’ written notice.
 
4. Relationship Among the Parties.. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to (i) constitute the parties as joint venturers, partners, co-owners or otherwise as participants in a joint undertaking; (ii) constitute a party as an agent, legal representative or employee of the other party; or (iii) authorize or permit a party or any director, officer, employee, agent or other person acting on its behalf to incur on behalf of the other party any obligation of any kind, either express or implied, or do, sign or execute any things, deeds, or documents which may have the effect of legally binding or obligating the other party in any manner in favor of any individual, business, trust, unincorporated association, corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company or other entity of any kind. The parties agree that the relationship among the parties shall be that of independent contractors.
 
5. Confidential Information. Each party will maintain the confidentiality of the other party’s proprietary and confidential information in accordance with the terms of a confidentiality agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) to be entered into by the parties.
 
6. Securities Law Matters. In connection with the issuance of the Shares by NGBL to GMVP, GMVP hereby represents and warrants to NGBL as of the date hereof as follows:
   
	 
	1
	
 
	 

   
(i) Purchase for Own Account. GMVP is acquiring the Securities solely for GMVP’s own account and beneficial interest for investment and not for sale or with a view to distribution of the Securities or any part thereof, has no present intention of selling (in connection with a distribution or otherwise), granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same, and does not presently have reason to anticipate a change in such intention.
 
(ii) Information and Sophistication. GMVP hereby: (A) acknowledges that GMVP has received all the information GMVP has requested from NGBL and GMVP considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire the Securities, (B) represents that GMVP has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from NGBL regarding the terms and conditions of the Securities and to obtain any additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of the information given GMVP and (C) further represents that GMVP has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that GMVP is capable of evaluating the merits and risk of this investment.
 
(iii) Ability to Bear Economic Risk. GMVP acknowledges that investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk, and represents that GMVP is able, without materially impairing GMVP’s financial condition, to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of GMVP’s investment.
 
(iv) Restrictive Legends. GMVP acknowledges that the Securities shall be issued bearing restrictive legends as required by federal and state laws.
 
(v) Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, GMVP further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until:
 
(1) There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or
 
(2) GMVP shall have notified NGBL of the proposed disposition and furnished NGBL with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by NGBL, GMVP shall have furnished NGBL with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to NGBL, that such disposition will not require registration under the Act or any applicable state securities laws; provided that no such opinion shall be required for dispositions in compliance with Rule 144 under the Act, except in unusual circumstances. The parties acknowledge that Rule 144 will allow dispositions of the Securities by GMVP made in compliance with the requirements of such rule. Such requirements would include, among other things, the satisfaction by GMVP of the holding period requirement set forth in Rule 144(d) (currently six months or one year, as applicable).
 
(3) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (1) and (2) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by GMVP to a partner (or retired partner) or member (or retired member) of GMVP in accordance with partnership or limited liability company interests, or transfers by gift, will or intestate succession to any spouse or lineal descendants or ancestors, if all transferees agree in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if they were GMVPs hereunder.

GMVP has exercised reasonable care to determine (i) the identity of each person that is a GMVP Covered Person; and (ii) whether any GMVP Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. GMVP will comply with its disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e).
 
(viii) Forward-Looking Statements. With respect to any forecasts, projections of results and other forward-looking statements and information provided to GMVP, GMVP acknowledges that such statements were prepared based upon assumptions deemed reasonable by NGBL at the time of preparation.
