WHEREAS, each Purchaser desires to acquire the number of Placement Warrants set forth opposite his or her name on Schedule A hereto;

WHEREAS, the Placement Warrants shall be governed by the Warrant Agreement filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (the “Warrant Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Purchasers are entitled to registration rights with respect to the Placement Warrants and the Ordinary Shares underlying such Placement Warrants (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”) on the terms set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

1.           Purchase of Placement Warrants. The Purchasers hereby agree, directly or through nominees, to purchase an aggregate of 2,185,067 Placement Warrants at a purchase price of $0.75 per Placement Warrant, or an aggregate of $1,638,800 (the “Purchase Price”).

transferee’s written agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. During the Restriction Period, no Purchaser shall pledge or grant a security interest in his or her Placement Warrants or grant a security interest in his or her rights under this Agreement.  In addition, with respect to the Placement Warrants purchased by Chardan Capital Markets LLC or any other member of FINRA, the holder of such Placement Warrants agrees that, in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(1), it will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or hypothecate any Placement Warrant (in whole or in part) or any interest herein for a period of 180 days following the Effective Date to anyone other than (i) an underwriter or a selected dealer participating in the Offering or (ii) any successor, officer or partner of Chardan Capital Markets LLC or of any such underwriter, selected dealer or successor.

6.           Waiver of Liquidation Distributions. In connection with the Placement Warrants purchased pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchasers hereby waive any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any liquidating distributions by the Company in the event of a liquidation of the Company upon the Company’s failure to timely complete a Business Combination. For purposes of clarity, any Ordinary Shares purchased in the IPO or the aftermarket by the Purchasers shall be eligible to receive any liquidating distributions by the Company.

7.           Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser hereby represents and warrants on behalf of itself to the Company that:

7.1.        Such Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

7.2.        The Placement Warrants are being acquired by such Purchaser for such Purchaser’s own account, only for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution or public offering thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.

  

  

  

 

7.3.        Such Purchaser has the full right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and this Agreement is a valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with its terms.

8.           Waiver and Indemnification. The Purchasers hereby waive any and all rights to assert any present or future claims, including any right of rescission, against the Company with respect to their purchase of the Placement Warrants, and each Purchaser agrees jointly and severally to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from all losses, damages or expenses that relate to claims or proceedings brought against the Company by any Purchaser of the Placement Warrants or their transferees, heirs, assigns or any subsequent holders of the Placement Warrants.

9.           Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement or any counterpart may be executed via facsimile transmission, and any such executed facsimile copy shall be treated as an original.

10.           Governing Law. This Agreement shall for all purposes be deemed to be made under and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of any other jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereby agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive.

EXHIBIT 10.1

WARRANT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of December 13, 2010, by and between Tuffnell Ltd., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and (“Warrant holder”).  Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 14 hereof.

In consideration of the mutual terms, conditions, representations, warranties and agreements herein set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

	 	
Section 1.

	
Issuance of Warrants.

The Company hereby issues and grants to Warrant holder 250,000 Warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “ Common Stock ”)  commencing on December 13, 2010  (the “ Warrant Commencement Date ”), and terminating  on November 4, 2012  (the “ Warrant Expiration Date ”), the holder shall have the right, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions to exercise set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement, to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock (the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants being collectively referred to herein as the “ Warrant Shares ”) at an exercise price of $1.00  per Warrant Share (the “ Exercise Price
”).  The number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of each Warrant and the Exercise Price are all subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding, the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, reduce the Exercise Price.

 

	 	
Section 2.

	
Form of Warrant Certificates.

Promptly after the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto, the Company shall cause to be executed and delivered to Warrant holder one or more certificates evidencing the Warrants (the “Warrant Certificates”).  Each Warrant Certificate delivered hereunder shall be substantially in the form set forth in  Exhibit A attached hereto and may have such letters, numbers or other identification marks and legends, summaries or endorsements printed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and that are not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or as may be required by applicable law, rule or regulation.  Each Warrant Certificate shall be dated the date of execution by the Company.

 

	 	
Section 3.

	
Execution of Warrant Certificates.

Each Warrant Certificate delivered hereunder shall be signed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President or a Vice President, Secretary or an Assistant Secretary.  Each such signature may be in the form of a facsimile thereof and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates.

If any officer of the Company who signed any Warrant Certificate ceases to be an officer of the Company before the Warrant Certificate so signed shall have been delivered by the Company, such Warrant Certificate nevertheless may be delivered as though such person had not ceased to be such officer of the Company.

  

1

  

	 	
Section 4.

	
Registration.

Warrant Certificates shall be issued in registered form only.  The Company will keep or cause to be kept books for registration of ownership and transfer of each Warrant Certificate issued pursuant to this Agreement.  Each Warrant Certificate issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be numbered by the Company and shall be registered by the Company in the name of the holder thereof (initially the Warrant holder).  The Company may deem and treat the registered holder of any Warrant Certificate as the absolute owner thereof (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone) for the purpose of any exercise thereof and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

	 	
Section 5.

	
No Transfers.

A. Restrictions on Transfer.  No Warrant may be sold, pledged, hypothecated, assigned, conveyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of (each a “ transfer”) unless (i) the transfer complies with all applicable United States securities laws and (ii) the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

B. Cancellation.  Warrant Certificates surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be canceled by the Company.

 

	 	
Section 6.

	
Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificates.

If any Warrant Certificate is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue, upon surrender and cancellation of any mutilated Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for any lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant Certificate, a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing an equal number of Warrants.  In the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant Certificate, a new Warrant Certificate shall be issued by the Company only upon the Company’s receipt of reasonably satisfactory evidence of such loss, theft or destruction and, if requested, an indemnity or bond reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

 

	 	
Section 7.

	
Exercise of Warrants.

A. Exercise.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7, Warrants may be exercised, in whole or in part (but not as to any fractional part of a Warrant), at any time or from time to time on and after the Warrant Commencement Date and on or prior to 5:00 p.m. on the Warrant Expiration Date.

The Warrant shall be exercisable only on and after the Warrant Commencement Date. If the Company determines in its sole and absolute discretion to accelerate the date that this Warrant first becomes exercisable to a date which is earlier than the first anniversary date of the date hereof, the Company shall send notice to the Warrant holder prior to the date thereof.

In order to exercise any Warrant, Warrant holder shall deliver to the Company at its office referred to in Section 15 the following: (i) a written notice in the form of the Election to Purchase appearing at the end of the form of Warrant Certificate attached as  Exhibit A  hereto of such Warrant holder’s election to exercise the Warrants, which notice shall specify the number of such Warrant holder’s Warrants being exercised; (ii) the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates evidencing the Warrants being exercised; and (iii) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price.

  

2

  

All rights of Warrant holder with respect to any Warrant that has not been exercised, on or prior to 5:00 p.m. on the Warrant Expiration Date shall immediately cease and such Warrants shall be automatically cancelled and void.

B. Payment of Exercise Price.  Payment of the Exercise Price with respect to Warrants being exercised hereunder may, at the election of Warrant holder, be made as follows:  (i) by the payment to the Company, in cash, by check or wire transfer, of an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrants then being exercised; or (ii) by surrendering to the Company for cancellation Warrant Certificates evidencing Warrants to acquire a number of Warrant Shares equal to (x) the aggregate Exercise Price divided by (y) the fair market value of one Warrant Share (a “ cashless exercise ”).

If a Warrant holder elects a cashless exercise, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to Warrant holder upon such exercise shall be computed using the following formula:

X =           Y(A-B)

                 A

X =           the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to Warrant holder

Y =           the number of Warrant Shares underlying the Warrants being exercised

A =           the fair market value of one Warrant Share

B =           the Exercise Price

(a) As used herein, the “fair market value of one Warrant Share” means an amount equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which a Warrant Share is convertible times the average, over the 5 trading-day period ending on the trading day which is two trading days prior to the date of surrender, of the closing sales prices (or, if on any day there is no closing sales price, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked price) in the United States Over-the -Counter Bulletin Board as reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Incorporated, or any similar successor organization.

(b)           For the purpose of this section, the “closing” shall mean 4:00 p.m., New York City time.

C. Payment of Taxes.  The Company shall be responsible for paying any and all issue, documentary, stamp or other taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares on exercise of a Warrant.

  

3

  

D. Delivery of Warrant Shares.  Upon receipt of the items referred to in Section 7A, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter, execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered, to or upon the written order of Warrant holder, and in the name of Warrant holder or Warrant holder’s designee, a stock certificate or stock certificates representing the number of Warrant Shares to be issued on exercise of the Warrant(s).  If the Warrant Shares shall in accordance with the terms thereof have become automatically convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock prior to the time a Warrant is exercised, the Company shall in lieu of issuing shares of Common Stock, issue to the Warrant holder or its designee
on exercise of such Warrant, a stock certificate or stock certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of such Warrant are convertible.  The certificates issued to Warrant holder or its designee shall bear any restrictive legend required under applicable law, rule or regulation.  The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall be registered in the name of Warrant holder or such other name as shall be designated in said notice.  A Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such stock certificate or stock certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and such holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date that such notice, together with payment of the aggregate Exercise Price and the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates evidencing the Warrants to be
exercised, is received by the Company as aforesaid.  If the Warrants evidenced by any Warrant Certificate are exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the stock certificates, deliver to the holder thereof a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the Warrants that were not exercised or surrendered, which shall in all respects (other than as to the number of Warrants evidenced thereby) be identical to the Warrant Certificate being exercised.  Any Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall be canceled by the Company.

 

	 	
Section 8.

	
Adjustment of Number of Warrant Shares Issuable Upon Exercise of a Warrant and Adjustment of Exercise Price.

A. Adjustment for Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, Recapitalizations.  The number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant and the Exercise Price shall each be proportionately adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization or the like affecting the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock that occurs after the date hereof.

B. Adjustments for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger.  If after the date hereof, the Company (or any other entity, the stock or other securities of which are at the time receivable on the exercise of the Warrants), consolidates with or merges into another entity or conveys all or substantially all of its assets to another entity, then, in each such case, Warrant holder, upon any permitted exercise of a Warrant (as provided in Section 7), at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which such Warrant holder would have been entitled upon the
consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance if such Warrant holder had exercised the Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 8.  The successor or purchasing entity in any such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance (if other than the Company) shall duly execute and deliver to Warrant holder a written acknowledgment of such entity’s obligations under the Warrants and this Agreement.

  

4

  

  

C. Notice of Certain Events.

Upon the occurrence of any event resulting in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares (or other stock or securities or property) receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants or the Exercise Price, the Company shall promptly thereafter (i) compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrants, (ii) prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based, and (iii) mail copies of such certificate to Warrant holder.

D. Adjustment to the Exercise Price.

The Company has the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to reduce the Exercise Price. Upon any such determination, the Company shall notice to the Warrant holder thereof.

 

	 	
Section 9.

	
Reservation of Shares.

The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, or its authorized and issued Common Stock held in its treasury, the aggregate number of the Warrant Shares deliverable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue the Warrant Shares upon the due and punctual exercise of the Warrants, through 5:00 p.m. on the Warrant Expiration Date.

 

	 	
Section 10.

	
No Impairment.

The Company shall not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, willfully avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of the Warrants or this Agreement, and shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of Warrant holder under the Warrants and this Agreement against wrongful impairment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company:  (i) shall not set or increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefore upon exercise, and (ii)
shall take all actions that are necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants.

 

	 	
Section 11.

	
Representations and Warranties of Warrant holder.

(ii) Warrant holder understands that the Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and acknowledges that the Warrants and the Warrant Shares must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration becomes available.

(iii) Warrant holder is acquiring the Warrants for Warrant holder’s own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof.

  

5

  

(iv)           All the representations made by the Warrant holder on the date hereof in the Subscription Agreement between the Company and the Warrant holder shall be true and correct as of the date the Warrant holder exercises the Warrant.

No Rights or Liabilities as Stockholder.

 

No holder, as such, of any Warrant Certificate shall be entitled to vote, receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Common Stock which may at any time be issuable on the exercise of the Warrants represented thereby for any purpose whatever, nor shall anything contained herein or in any Warrant Certificate be construed to confer upon the holder of any Warrant Certificate, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), or to receive notice of
meetings or other actions affecting stockholders or to receive dividend or subscription rights, or otherwise, until such Warrant Certificate shall have been exercised in accordance with the provisions hereof and the receipt and collection of the Exercise Price and any other amounts payable upon such exercise by the Company.  No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by Warrant holder to purchase Warrant Shares shall give rise to any liability of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
