2
Shareholder has voting control, from time to time and at all times, in whatever manner as shall be necessary to ensure that:

2.2. Irrevocable Proxy and Power of Attorney. Each of the Shareholders hereby constitutes and appoints as its proxy and hereby grants a power of attorney to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and a designee of RMCF, and each of them, with full power of substitution, with respect to the matters set forth herein, including without limitation, election of persons as members of the Board in accordance with Section 1 hereto, and hereby authorizes each of them to represent and to vote, if and only if such Shareholder (i) fails to vote for the election of one or more directors of the Company or (ii) attempts to vote (whether by proxy, in person or by written consent), in a manner which is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, all of such Shareholder’s Shares in favor of the election of persons as members of the Board determined pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each of the proxy and power of attorney granted pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence is given in consideration of the agreements and covenants of the Company and the parties in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, as such, each is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable unless and until the earliest of (a) seven

Xxxxxxxxxx will be irreparably damaged in the event the provisions of Sections 1.1 or 1.2 of this Agreement, and/or Section 1.5 if related to Section 1.2, are not performed by the parties in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. Accordingly, it is agreed that X. Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx and X. Xxxxxxxxxx shall be entitled to an injunction to prevent breaches of Sections 1.1 or 1.2, and/or Section 1.5 if related to Section 1.2, of this Agreement, and to specific enforcement of those provisions of this Agreement in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state having subject matter jurisdiction.
(b) RMCF will be irreparably damaged in the event any of the provisions of Sections 1.1 through 1.4 this Agreement, and/or Section 1.5 if related to Sections 1.1 through 1.4, are not performed by the parties in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached.

4.2. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.

Any such counterpart shall be effective as a counterpart signature page hereto without regard to page, document or version numbers or other identifying information thereon, which are for convenience of reference only. The parties hereto may sign this Agreement in the original, or by facsimile (sent via e-mail or facsimile, or by any other generally acceptable electronic means).
4.5. Construction. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

The Company shall give prompt written notice of any amendment, termination or waiver hereunder to any party that did not consent in writing thereto. Any amendment, termination or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 4.8 shall be binding on each party and all of such party’s successors and permitted assigns, whether or not any such party, successor or assignee entered into or approved such amendment, termination or waiver. For purposes of this Section 4.8 the requirement of a written instrument may be satisfied in the form of an action by written consent of the Shareholders circulated by the Company and executed by the Shareholder parties specified, provided that it makes explicit reference to this Agreement.
4.8. Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-breaching or non-defaulting party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default previously or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

4.10. Severability.

4.12. Legend on Share Certificates. Each certificate representing any Shares transferred pursuant to Section 4.1 above after the Effective Date of this Agreement shall be endorsed by the Company with a legend reading substantially as follows:
6
“THE SHARES EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO A VOTING AGREEMENT, AS MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME (A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST FROM THE COMPANY), AND BY ACCEPTING ANY INTEREST IN SUCH SHARES THE PERSON ACCEPTING SUCH INTEREST SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THAT VOTING AGREEMENT, INCLUDING CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND OWNERSHIP SET FORTH THEREIN.”
The Company, by its execution of this Agreement, agrees that it will cause the certificates evidencing the Shares transferred pursuant to Section 4.1 above after the Effective Date of this Agreement to bear the legend required by this Section 4.12 of this Agreement, and it shall supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement to any holder of a certificate evidencing Shares upon written request from such holder to the Company at its principal office. The parties to this Agreement do hereby agree that the failure to cause the certificates evidencing the Shares to bear the legend required by this Section 4.12 herein and/or the failure of the Company to supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement as provided hereunder shall not affect the validity or enforcement of this Agreement.
4.13. Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, etc. In the event of any issuance of Shares of the Company’s voting securities hereafter to any of the Shareholders (including, without limitation, in connection with any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, or the like), such Shares shall become subject to this Agreement and shall be endorsed with the legend set forth in Section 4.12.

4.15. Further Assurances. At any time or from time to time after the date hereof, the parties agree to cooperate with each other, and at the request of any other party, to execute and deliver any further instruments or documents and to take all such further action as the other party may reasonably request in order to evidence or effectuate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and to otherwise carry out the intent of the parties hereunder.
4.16. Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. ALL QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEVADA. THE COMPANY AND THE PURCHASER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS SITTING IN THE STATE OF COLORADO FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE BROUGHT BY THE COMPANY OR THE PURCHASER HEREUNDER, IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR WITH ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR DISCUSSED HEREIN AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE COMPANY OR
7
THE PURCHASER, ANY CLAIM THAT IT IS NOT PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT, OR THAT SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IS IMPROPER. THE COMPANY AND THE PURCHASER HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY.
