(g)           The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall have the following effect at Closing, the financial rights, but not voting or any other control rights with respect to the fifty one percent (51%) of the shares of Cygnus held by Arnold Leonora individually shall be held in trust for the benefit of Alas and the assignment of such rights to Alas shall be irrevocable.  It is the intent of the parties to have 100% of the financial rights in Cygnus be acquired by Alas or the right to receive the maximum financial benefits associated with those shares allowable without jeopardizing the flight certificate held by Cygnus.  The Spanish Civil Aviation Authority requires that control of a company holding such flight certificates must be held by a national of the European Union, of which by virtue of his citizenship, Mr. Leonora is a member. Subsequent to Closing the parties will seek to amend this temporary assignment/beneficiary-trustee relationship to provide a more formal structure that may include the reincorporation of Cygnus as an S.R.L. so that financial and governance rights may be separated in a manner that will be in full compliance with all applicable rules and regulation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the event that the Spanish Civil Aviation Authority were to challenge this assignment of all financial rights associated with the fifty one percent (51%) of Cygnus’ shares, this arrangement shall be void ab initio but then, only to the extent that it could violate the requirements of the civil aviation authority and the remainder of those rights assigned shall be modified to give full force and effect to the intent of the parties.

  

  

  

6.           Timing of Closing.  The initial closing shall occur on June 25, 2013, at 10:00 A.M., Central Standard Time regardless of the Escrow Agent being in receipt of the items described above, whereby the records of the parties shall reflect this closing and the respective equity ownership as provided for herein, subject to final closing upon Escrow Agent’s receipt of all documents and audited financial statements by Alas.
