THIS
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT is made as of December 3, 2008 (the “Agreement”), among
OMNIRELIANT HOLDINGS, INC., a corporation existing under the laws of Nevada (the
“Purchaser”), XXXXXXX.XXX, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and
ABAZIAS, INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Seller”).
ARTICLE
I
SALE AND
PURCHASE OF SHARES
1.1 Sale and Purchase of
Shares.
Upon the
terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, on the Closing Date Seller
shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to the Purchaser, and the
Purchaser shall purchase from Seller, all Shares of the Company owned by Seller
set forth opposite such Seller's name on Schedule 1.1 attached
hereto.
ARTICLE
II
PURCHASE
PRICE AND PAYMENT
2.1 Amount of Purchase
Price. The
purchase price for the Shares (the “Purchase Price”) shall be (i) a loan in the
amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the “Loan”) and; (ii)
issuance of thirteen million and one thousand (13,001,000) shares of Purchaser’s
Series E zero coupon convertible preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”),
subject to adjustment as set forth herein. The rights and privileges of the
Preferred Stock are set forth on Exhibit A.
2.2 Payment of Purchase
Price. The
Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price to the Seller (the “Closing Payment”), as
follows:
1
(i) The
Loan, in the form of the Note attached hereto as Exhibit B, made on August 12,
2008 (the “Cash Purchase Price”).
(ii) On
the Closing (as defined below), the Purchaser shall issue the Preferred Stock to
the Seller as described in Section 2.3 below.
2.3 Distribution of Preferred Stock.
Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at or following the Closing, the
following shall occur:
(a) Pro-Rata Right to
Preferred Stock. Each stockholder of common stock, par value $0.001 per share of
the Parent, (the “Parent Common Stock”) issued and outstanding on the Record
Date shall receive the following: a number of shares of Preferred Stock equal to
(i) the total shares of Preferred Stock multiplied by (ii) such stockholder’s
pro rata share of Parents Common Stock owned by such stockholder of Parent
(the “Pro Rata Ratio”). By way of example, if a stockholder owned five (5%)
percent of Parent Common Stock, such stockholder would be entitled to receive 5%

of Purchaser x 0.05. For purposes of this Agreement, Record
Date shall mean the date on which all stockholder’s of record of the Parent are
entitled to vote on this Agreement.

Stock that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall receive from
Purchaser one additional share of Preferred Stock.

to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 hereof
(or the waiver thereof by the party entitled to waive that condition), the

hereof (the "Closing") shall take place at the offices of Sichenzia Xxxx
Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP, 00 Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 (or at such other place as

This
Agreement may be terminated prior to the Closing as follows:

Closing shall not have occurred by the close of business on such date, provided
that the terminating party is not in default of any of its obligations
hereunder;
(b) by mutual
written consent of the Seller and the Purchaser; or
2
(c) by the
Seller or the Purchaser if there shall be in effect a final non-appealable order
of a governmental body of competent jurisdiction restraining, enjoining or
otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby;
it being agreed that the parties hereto shall promptly appeal any adverse

furnishing the same.
With the
exception of those items listed in Section 6.6, in the event that this Agreement
is validly terminated as provided herein, then each of the parties shall be
relieved of their duties and obligations arising under this Agreement after the
date of such termination and such termination shall be without liability to the

this Section 3.4 shall relieve the Purchaser or Seller of any liability for a
breach of this Agreement and/or the confidentiality provisions of the
Confidentiality Agreement executed by the parties as of the date of this
Agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), which confidentiality provisions
shall remain in full force and effect.
ARTICLE
IV
For
purposes of this Agreement, any statement made to the knowledge of the Company
shall mean the knowledge of the Seller. Seller shall be deemed to
have “knowledge” of a particular fact or other matter if Seller is actually
aware of such fact or other matter, or should, by reason of his or her position
as an owner, director or executive officer of the Company, reasonably be
expected to be aware of such fact or other matter. Additionally, all
representations made by the Seller in the Note Purchase Agreement dated August
12, 2008 and attached hereto as Exhibit C shall have full force and effect shall
be incorporated herein.
The
Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser that:
3
(a) The
Company has full power and authority (corporate and otherwise) to carry on its
business and has all permits and licenses that are necessary to the conduct of
its business or to the ownership, lease or operation of its properties and
assets, except where the failure to have such permits and licenses would not
have a Material Adverse Effect.
(b) The
execution of this Agreement and the delivery hereof to the Purchaser and the
sale contemplated herein have been, or will be prior to Closing, duly authorized
by the Company’s Board of Directors and by the Company’s stockholders having
full power and authority to authorize such actions.

right, power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and
provisions of this Agreement; and this Agreement has been duly and validly
executed and delivered on behalf of Seller and the Company and constitutes a
valid and binding obligation of each Seller and the Company enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting generally
the enforcement of creditor’s rights.
(d) The
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions
herein contemplated, nor compliance with the terms of this Agreement will
violate, conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under any
statute, regulation, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, or other agreement or
instrument to which the Company or Seller is a party or by which it or any of
them is bound, any charter, regulation, or bylaw provision of the Company, or
any decree, order, or rule of any court or governmental authority or arbitrator
that is binding on the Company or Seller in any way, except where such would not
have a Material Adverse Effect.
(a) The
Company’s authorized capital stock consists of 1000 shares of Common Stock,
$0.001 par value per share, of which 1000 shares have been issued to Seller and
constitute the Shares as defined above. All of the Shares are duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

clear of any liens, pledges, encumbrances, charges, claims or restrictions of
any kind, except as set forth in Schedule 4.3, and have, or will have on the

enter into and perform this Agreement without any other or further
authorization, action or proceeding, except as specified herein.
4
(c) There
are no authorized or outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls,
contracts, demands, commitments, convertible securities or other agreements or
arrangements of any character or nature whatever under which Seller or the
Company are or may become obligated to issue, assign or transfer any shares of
capital stock of the Company except as set forth in Schedule
4.3. Upon the delivery to Purchaser on the Closing Date of the
certificate(s) representing the Shares, Purchaser will have good, legal, valid,
marketable and indefeasible title to all the then issued and outstanding shares
of capital stock of the Company, free and clear of any liens, pledges,
encumbrances, charges, agreements, options, claims or other arrangements or
restrictions of any kind.
5
(a) The Company has filed
all forms, reports and documents required to be filed with the SEC since its
October 3, 2003 merger with Hunno Technologies, Inc. All such required forms,
reports and documents (including those that the Company may file subsequent to
the date hereof) are referred to herein as the “Company SEC Reports.” As of
their respective dates, the Company SEC Reports (i) were prepared in accordance
with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may
be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder applicable to such
Company SEC Reports, and (ii) did not at the time they were filed (or if amended
or superseded by a filing prior to the date of this Agreement, then on the date
of such filing) contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.
(b) Each
of the consolidated financial statements (including, in each case, any related
notes thereto) contained in the Company SEC Reports (the “Company Financials”),
including any Company SEC Reports filed after the date hereof until the Closing,
as of their respective dates, (i) complied as to form in all material respects
with the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, (ii)

Exchange Act) and (iii) fairly presented the consolidated financial position of
the Company and its Subsidiaries at the respective dates thereof and the
consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for the periods indicated,
except that the unaudited interim financial statements were or are subject to
normal and recurring year-end adjustments which were not, or are not expected to
be, material in amount. The balance sheet of the Company as of
September 30, 2008, is hereinafter referred to as the “Company Balance Sheet
Date.” Except as disclosed in the Company Financials, neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any liabilities (absolute, accrued,
contingent or otherwise) of a nature required to be disclosed on a balance sheet
or in the related notes to the consolidated financial statements prepared in
accordance with GAAP which are, individually or in the aggregate, material to
the business, results of operations or financial condition of the Company and
its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, except liabilities (i) provided for in the
Company Balance Sheet, or (ii) incurred since the date of the Company Balance
Sheet in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices and
which would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect
except for the Loan.
6
None of
the information supplied or to be supplied by the Company for inclusion or
incorporation by reference in (i) the S-4 will at the time it becomes effective
under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements therein not misleading and (ii) the proxy
statement/prospectus to be sent to the stockholders of the Company and
stockholders of Parent in connection with the meetings of Parent’s stockholders
and Company's stockholders to consider the adoption of this Agreement
(collectively the “Company Stockholders' Meeting”) (such joint proxy
statement/prospectus as amended or supplemented is referred to herein as the
“Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) shall not, on the date the Joint Proxy
Statement/Prospectus is first mailed to the Company's stockholders and Parent's
stockholders, at the time of the Company Stockholders' Meeting and at the
Closing Date, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made,
not false or misleading, or omit to state any material fact necessary to correct
any statement in any earlier communication with respect to the solicitation of
proxies for the Company Stockholders' Meeting which has become false or
misleading. The Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus will comply as to form in all
material respects with the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder. If at any time prior to the Closing Date, any event
relating to the Company or any of its affiliates, officers or directors should
be discovered by the Company which should be set forth in an amendment to the
S-4 or a supplement to the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, the Company shall
promptly inform Purchaser.

respects, except for immaterial amounts where such would not have a Material
Adverse Effect. The Company has paid all Taxes shown to be due on
such Returns. Except as listed on Schedule 4.12 hereto, the Company
is not currently the beneficiary of any extensions of time within which to file

writing that it is the subject of any pending, proposed, or threatened action,
investigation, proceeding, audit, claim or assessment by or before the Internal
Revenue Service or any other governmental authority, nor does the Company have
any reason to believe that any such notice will be received in the future.
Except as set forth on Schedule 4.12, neither the Internal Revenue Service nor
any state or local taxation authority has ever audited any income tax return of
the Company. The Company has not filed any requests for rulings with
the Internal Revenue Service. Except as provided to the Company’s
accountants, no power of attorney has been granted by the Company or its
affiliates with respect to any matter relating to Taxes of the
Company. There are no Tax liens of any kind upon any property or
assets of the Company, except for inchoate liens for Taxes not yet due and

(v) Except

affiliates, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the "Purchaser
Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against:
(i) any and
all liabilities of the Company of every kind, nature and description, absolute
or contingent, existing as against the Company prior to and including the
Closing Date or thereafter coming into being or arising by reason of any state
of facts existing, or any transaction entered into, on or prior to the Closing
Date, except to the extent that the same have been fully provided for in the
Schedules attached hereto or were incurred in the ordinary course of business
between the Company Balance Sheet Date and the Closing Date;
30
(ii) any and
all losses, liabilities, obligations, damages, costs and expenses based upon,
attributable to or resulting from the failure of any representation or warranty
of the Seller set forth in Section 4 hereof, or any representation or warranty
contained in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of the Seller pursuant to

(iii) any and
all losses, liabilities, obligations, damages, costs and expenses based upon,

with respect to which indemnification is provided hereunder (collectively,
"Losses").
(b) Subject
to Sections 9.2 and 10.2 hereof, Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
the Seller and their respective affiliates, agents, successors and assigns
(collectively, the "Seller Indemnified Parties") harmless from and
against:
(i) any and
all Losses based upon, attributable to or resulting from the failure of any
representation or warranty of the Purchaser set forth in Section 5 hereof, or
any representation or warranty contained in any certificate delivered by or on
behalf of the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, to be true and correct as of
the date made;
(ii) any and
all Losses based upon, attributable to or resulting from the breach of any
covenant or other agreement on the part of the Purchaser under this Agreement or
arising from the ownership or operation of the Company from and after the
Closing Date, unless such claim is for a pre-Closing matter; and
(iii) any and
all Expenses incident to the foregoing.
9.2 Limitations on
Indemnification for Breaches of Representations and
Warranties.
An
indemnifying party shall not have any liability under Section 9.1(a)(ii) or
Section 9.1(b)(i) hereof unless the aggregate amount of Losses and Expenses to
the indemnified parties exceeds $10,000 (the “Basket”) (except for Losses and
Expenses based upon, attributable to or resulting from the failure of any
representation or warranty to be true and correct under Section 4, for which the
Basket shall not apply) and, in such event, the indemnifying party shall be
required to pay the entire amount of such Losses and Expenses in excess of the
Basket. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the maximum
liability Seller shall be required to pay hereunder, in the aggregate, shall be
the aggregate amount of cash and shares of the Purchaser (valued as of their
date of issuance) paid or delivered to the Seller (the “Cap”). In
addition, if any Loss or Expense of Purchaser is covered by insurance, Seller
shall not be required to indemnify Purchaser for the amount of such Losses or
Expenses to the extent of such insurance proceeds and Seller shall only pay
Purchaser the excess of the Losses and Expenses, if any, over such insurance
proceeds, subject to the Cap. Following the Closing, other than in
cases of fraud, this Article 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the
parties hereto and their successors and assigns with respect to any and all
claims for Losses and Expenses sustained or incurred arising out of this
Agreement.
31
(a) In the
event that any legal proceedings shall be instituted or that any claim or demand
("Claim") shall be asserted by any person or entity in respect of which payment
may be sought under Section 9.1 hereof (regardless of the Basket referred to
above), the indemnified party shall reasonably and promptly cause written notice
of the assertion of any Claim of which it has knowledge which is covered by this
indemnity to be forwarded to the indemnifying party. The indemnifying
party shall have the right, at its sole option and expense, to be represented by
counsel of its choice, which must be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party, and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Claim
which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder. If the
indemnifying party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal
with any Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, it
shall within five (5) days (or sooner, if the nature of the Claim so requires)
notify the indemnified party of its intent to do so. If the
indemnifying party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise
deal with any Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder,
fails to notify the indemnified party of its election as herein provided or
contests its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party for such Losses under
this Agreement, the indemnified party may defend against, negotiate, settle or
otherwise deal with such Claim. If the indemnified party defends any
Claim, then the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party for the
Expenses of defending such Claim upon submission of periodic
bills. If the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of any
Claim, the indemnified party may participate, at his or its own expense, in the
defense of such Claim; provided, however, that such indemnified party shall be
entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense
of the indemnifying party if, (i) so requested by the indemnifying party to
participate or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the indemnified
party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the indemnified party and
the indemnifying party that would make such separate representation advisable;
and provided, further, that the indemnifying party shall not be required to pay
for more than one such counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with
any Claim. The parties hereto agree to cooperate fully with each
other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such
Claim.
(b) After any
final judgment or award shall have been rendered by a court, arbitration board
or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the
time in which to appeal therefrom, or a settlement shall have been consummated,
or the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have arrived at a
mutually binding agreement with respect to a Claim hereunder, the indemnified
party shall forward to the indemnifying party notice of any sums due and owing
by the indemnifying party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter
and the indemnifying party shall be required to pay all of the sums so due and
owing to the indemnified party by wire transfer of immediately available funds
within 10 business days after the date of such notice.
32
(c) The
failure of the indemnified party to give reasonably prompt notice of any Claim
shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the indemnifying party's
obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the indemnifying
party can demonstrate actual loss and prejudice as a result of such
failure.
(d) With
respect to amounts payable by Seller hereunder to the Purchaser hereunder, it is
agreed that Seller shall first be obligated to pay all amounts in cash, up to
the cash value of the Preferred Stock actually received by the Seller pursuant
to Article II of this Agreement. Seller may then deliver shares of
Purchaser Preferred Stock to the Purchaser to pay any additional amounts due
hereunder. Any shares of Purchaser common stock so used to make
payments hereunder shall be valued at the closing price of such shares on the
day prior to the date of delivery to the Purchaser, endorsed for
transfer. Any additional amounts which Seller shall be required to
pay after the delivery of any shares of Purchaser common stock shall be made in
cash.

hereto; provided, however, that any claims or actions with respect thereto
(other than claims for indemnifications with respect to the representation and
warranties contained in Sections 4.3, 4.11, 4.28 and 5.8 which shall

dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with or related to
this Agreement, the successful or prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs in connection with that action or
proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which it or they may be
entitled.
This Agreement (including the schedules
and exhibits hereto )represents the entire understanding and agreement between
the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and can be amended,
supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written
instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the party
against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, modification or
waiver is sought. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement,
including without limitation, any investigation by or on behalf of any party,
shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of
compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained
herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision
of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing
waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent
breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay
in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy
by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by
law.

Company has filed with the Commission all SEC Documents that the Company was
required to file with the Commission on or after December 31,
2006. The Company is not aware of any event occurring or expected to
occur on or prior to the Closing Date that would require the filing of, or with
respect to which the Company intends to file, a Form 8-K after the
Closing. Each SEC Document filed on or after December 31, 2006, as of
the date of the filing thereof with the Commission (or if amended or superseded
by a filing prior to the Execution Date, then on the date of such amending or
superseding filing), complied in all material respects with the requirements of
the Securities Act or Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder and, as of the date of such filing (or if amended or
superseded by a filing prior to the Execution Date, then on the date of such
filing), such SEC Document (including all exhibits and schedules thereto and
documents incorporated by reference therein) did not, contain an untrue
statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. To the best
of the Company’s knowledge, all documents required to be filed as exhibits to
the SEC Documents filed on or after December 31, 2006 have been filed as
required. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Documents, the
Company has no liabilities, contingent or otherwise, other than liabilities
incurred in the ordinary course of business which, under GAAP, are not required
to be reflected in the financial statements included in the Disclosure Documents
and which, individually or in the aggregate, are not material to the
consolidated business or financial condition of the Company and the Company
Subsidiary taken as a whole. As of their respective dates, the
financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents filed on or
after December 31, 2006 complied as to form in all material respects with
applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of
the Commission with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied at the times and during
the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial
statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim
statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or
summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial
position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of its
operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of
unaudited statements, to normal year-end adjustments). The Company
will prepare the financial statements to be included in any reports, schedules,
registration statements and definitive proxy statements that the Company is
required to file or files with the Commission after the date hereof in
accordance with GAAP (except in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the
extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary
statements).

lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under any provision of any
instrument or contract to which it is a party or by which it or any of its
Property is bound, or in violation of any provision of any Governmental
Requirement applicable to the Company or any Company Subsidiary. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction

thereby will not result in any violation of any provisions of the Company’s or
any Company Subsidiary’s charter, bylaws or any other governing document or in a
default under any provision of any instrument or contract to which the Company

offer.

as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, the Company and the Company Subsidiary
have no liabilities under any Environmental Law, nor, to the Company's
knowledge, do any factors exist that are reasonably likely to give rise to any
such liability, affecting any of the properties owned or leased by the Company
or any Company Subsidiary that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or

Effect. Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary has violated
any Environmental Law applicable to it now or previously in effect, other than

Executive
also covenants that at any time after the termination of such employment,
directly or indirectly, he will not use any Confidential Information or divulge
or disclose any Confidential Information to any person, firm or corporation,
unless such information is in the public domain through no fault of Executive or
except when required to do so by a court of law, by any governmental agency
having supervisory authority over the business of the Company or by any
administrative or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with apparent
jurisdiction to order Executive to divulge, disclose or make accessible such
information.
All
written Confidential Information (including, without limitation, in any computer
or other electronic format) which comes into Executive’s possession during the
course of Executive’s employment shall remain the property of the
Company. Upon termination of Executive’s employment, the Executive
agrees to return immediately to the Company all written Confidential Information
(including, without limitation, in any computer or other electronic format) in
Executive’s possession.
3
(a)
The
Company may terminate Executive's employment prior to the expiration of the Term
(“Termination”). If
such termination by the Company is for any reason other than a
Termination for Cause (as defined in Section 4.1(b) hereof), or Executive’s
death or disability, then:
(i) all
unvested options, warrants and other equity grants shall vest
immediately,
(ii) Executive
shall be entitled to a continuation of health and other medical benefits and
coverage at the cost and expense of the Company for a period of not less than
eighteen (18) months, in consideration for all of which the parties hereto shall
exchange mutual releases of claims,
(iii) Executive
shall be entitled to retain the signing bonus issued pursuant to Section 1.9
above, and
(iv) Executive
shall be entitled to receive Incentive Compensation pursuant to Section
1.6.
(b) For
purposes of this Agreement, the term "Termination for Cause" means, a
termination by reason of any of the following:
(i) Executive’s
conviction of or entrance of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a felony;
or
(ii) Executive
is engaging or has engaged in material fraud, material dishonesty, or other acts
of willful and continued misconduct in connection with the business affairs of
the Company;
provided, however, that (x) no
conduct by Executive shall be deemed willful for purposes of this Section 4.1 if
Executive believed in good faith that such conduct was in or not opposed to the
best interests of the Company, and (y) Cause shall in no event be deemed to
exist with respect to clause (ii) above, unless Executive shall have first
received written notice from the Board of Directors advising Executive of the
specific acts or omissions alleged to constitute misconduct, and such misconduct
continues after Executive shall have had a reasonable opportunity (which shall
be defined as a period of time consisting of at least fifteen (15) days from the
date Executive receives said notice) to correct the acts or omissions so
complained of.
(c) For
purposes of this Agreement, Executive’s employment shall be deemed to have been

hereof;
4
(ii)

(iv)
any other material breach by the Company of this Agreement.
(d) If
all, or any portion, of the payments provided under this Agreement, either alone
or together with other payments and benefits which Executive receives or is
entitled to receive from the Company, would constitute an “excess parachute
payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code
(whether or not under an existing plan, arrangement or other agreement) (each
such parachute payment, a “Parachute Payment”),
and would result in the imposition on the Executive of an excise tax under
Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, then, in addition to any other
benefits to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement, the Executive
shall be paid by the Company an amount in cash equal to the sum of the excise
taxes payable by the Executive by reason of receiving Parachute Payments plus
the amount necessary to put the Executive in the same after-tax position (taking
into account any and all applicable federal, state and local excise, income or
other taxes at the highest possible applicable rates on such Parachute Payments
(including without limitation any payments under this Section 4.1(d)) as if no
excise taxes had been imposed with respect to Parachute Payments.

Landlord.

regulations of the federal, state, county, municipal and other authorities, and
the fire insurance underwriters. However, Tenant shall not by
this provision be required to make alterations to the exterior of the
building or alterations of a structural nature.

Tenant nor anyone claiming through the Tenant shall have the right to file
mechanics liens or any other kind of lien on the Premises and the filing of this
Lease constitutes notice that such liens are invalid. Further, Tenant agrees to
(1) give actual advanced notice to any contractors, subcontractors or suppliers
of goods, labor, or services that such liens will not be valid, and (2) take
whatever additional steps that are necessary in order to keep the premises free
of all liens resulting from construction done by or for the Tenant.
