Compensation:

OPMG/PhoneGuard is the licensee of the Software Application at issue for the Territory referenced herein and is a publicly traded company on the OTC Markets as “OPMG”, with 433,794,654 shares of common stock outstanding and a market cap of approximately $4,771,741. TBC will be issued by OPMG/PhoneGuard EIGHTEEN MILLION (18,000,000) shares of common stock, TWELVE MILLION (37,000,000) one-year warrants, that are exercisable at $0.01 per share for the above referenced warrants and TWENTY FIVE MILLION (25,000,000) one-year warrants exercisable at $0.02 per share (together the “Issued Shares” and the warrants together the “Warrants”). If the Endorsement Party and Consulting Party renew their agreements with OPMG/PhoneGuard the terms of the Warrants shall be extended for the same terms as the renewal agreements not to exceed a total exercise period of three years (the initial year plus up to two more years).
TBC’s shares and Warrants (and the shares into which they are convertible) shall be protected from dilution as follows: TBC shall have (i) so-called “full ratchet” anti-dilution protection from subsequent issuances of Common Stock (or warrants or other instruments convertible into Common Stock) either for no consideration or for a lower cost per share than the exercise price of the Warrants (as set forth below), except for Exempt Issuances (as defined below), and Company further agrees to an adjustment to be negotiated in good faith with TBC to protect the value of TBC’s Warrants from the financial dilution inherent in any issuance of Common Stock (or warrants or other instruments convertible into Common Stock) at a price per share (or exercise price per share) of less than the fair market value of such security at the time of issuance (if higher than the Exercise Price of the Warrants), provided that no such adjustment shall be required in the case of public offering of any such security at a customary discount from fair market value per common practice in the securities industry among arms-length parties trying in good faith to maximize the value of the offering to the issuer (ii) the pre-emptive rights set forth below, (iii) customary adjustments for stock splits or share dividends as set forth below, and (iv) protection against Company’s distribution of cash or property prior to TBC’s exercise of the Warrants as set forth below. Exempt Issuances shall mean issuances amounting, in the aggregate, to less than ten percent (10%) of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the date hereof, in connection with strategic partnerships. OPMG/PhoneGuard covenants that the shares, when issued pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The number of and kind of securities purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows: (a) if OPMG/PhoneGuard shall at any time prior to the expiration of the Warrants subdivide the shares or underlying Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine the shares or underlying Common Stock, or issue additional shares of its Common Stock as a dividend, the number of shares issuable on the exercise of the Warrants shall be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the purchase price payable per share, but the aggregate purchase price payable for the total number of shares purchasable under the Warrants (as adjusted) shall remain the same. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization, or change in the capital stock of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination, or stock dividend provided above), then the Company shall make appropriate provision so that the holder of the Warrants shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of the Warrants to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of the Warrants, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization, or change by a holder of the same number of shares as were purchasable by the holder immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization, or change. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the holder so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities and property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the purchase price per share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate purchase price shall remain the same. Company and TBC agree that in the event of distributions of cash (including dividends, for the avoidance of doubt) or property (other than Common Stock) prior to TBC’s exercise of the Warrants, TBC shall be entitled to its share of such distributions on a real time basis, as and when they are made, to the same extent as if TBC had exercised all of its Warrants prior to any such distribution. Except for Exempt Issuances, if Company shall issue, on or after the date upon which the Warrants are issued to TBC, any additional Common Stock, warrants or other securities convertible into Common Stock, either without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price applicable to the Warrants in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such additional securities, the Exercise Price for the Warrants in effect immediately prior to each such issuance shall forthwith (except as otherwise provided in this clause) be adjusted to an Exercise Price equal to the price paid (or payable in the case of a warrant, etc.) per share for such additional security, and the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable shall be proportionately increased so that TBC shall still have the right to acquired the same aggregate percentage interest of the fully-diluted Common Stock as may be calculated from the numbers above . When any adjustment is required to be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company shall promptly notify the holder of such event and of the number of shares or other securities or property thereafter purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company agrees during the term the rights under the Warrants are exercisable to reserve and keep available from its authorized and unissued shares for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the Warrants such number of shares of Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of the Warrants as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of the rights under the Warrants. Company agrees not take any action with the intent of undermining the effect of the anti-dilution provisions, and agrees to act in good faith and make appropriate adjustments to the conversion price (and number of shares into which the Warrants are convertible) for events which are not specifically dealt with herein. In the event OPMG/PhoneGuard desires to issue additional Common Stock (or warrants or other instruments convertible into Common Stock) at a price per share (or exercise price per share) greater than the fair market value of such security at the time of issuance and greater than the Exercise Price of the Warrants, OPMG/PhoneGuard shall give written notice of the intent to issue such additional securities to TBC. For a period of time after such notice by OPMG/PhoneGuard equivalent to the time remaining on the unexercised Warrants, if any, plus thirty (30) days, TBC shall have an irrevocable first option to purchase at the issuing price up to the number of shares (or rights to purchase shares) of the additional Common Stock or security. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing pre-emption right shall not be applicable in the case of stock issued by Company for the purpose of acquiring an unaffiliated company in a merger, except to the extent other holders of Common Stock are entitled to such pre-emption rights.
