The Company will provide, at the Company’s expense, such other legal opinions in the future as are reasonably necessary for the issuance and resale of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants pursuant to an effective registration statement, Rule 144 under the 1933 Act or an exemption from such registration.
7.1
Conversion of Preferred Stock. The terms of the Series A Preferred Stock are provided for in the Certificate of Designation.
(a)
Upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock or part thereof as provided for in the Preferred Stock, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action, including obtaining and delivering, an opinion of counsel to assure that the Company’s transfer agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of a Subscriber (or its permitted nominee) or such other persons as designated by such Subscriber and in such denominations to be specified at conversion representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the Company’s Common Stock and that the certificates representing such shares shall contain no legend other than the usual 1933 Act restriction from transfer legend. Examples of such legends are provided for in Section 4 of this Agreement. If and when a Subscriber sells the Shares, assuming (i) a registration statement including such Shares is effective and the prospectus, as supplemented or amended, contained therein is current and (ii) such Subscriber or its agent confirms in writing to the transfer agent that such Subscriber has complied with the prospectus delivery requirements, the restrictive legend will be removed and the Shares will be free-trading, and freely transferable. In the event that the Shares are sold in a manner that complies with an exemption from registration, the Company will promptly instruct its counsel to issue to the transfer agent an opinion permitting removal of the legend (indefinitely, if in accordance with the relevant provisions of Rule 144 of the 1933 Act).
The Company agrees and acknowledges that despite the pendency of a not yet effective registration statement which includes for registration the Securities, the Subscriber is permitted to and the Company will issue to the Subscriber Shares upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants. Such Shares will, if required by law, bear the legends described in Section 4 above and if the requirements of Rule 144 under the 1933 Act are satisfied be immediately resalable thereunder.

Failure to have sufficient shares reserved pursuant to this Section 9(f) at any time shall be a material default of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and an Event of Default under the Preferred Stock.
(g)

Confidentiality/Form 8-K. From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, the Company agrees that, except in connection with a Form 8-K or any registration statement or statements regarding the Subscribers’ securities or in correspondence with the Commission regarding the same or as otherwise required in connection with any other filing required to be made with the SEC, it will not disclose publicly or privately the identity of the Subscribers unless expressly agreed to in writing by a Subscriber or only to the extent required by law and then only upon five days prior notice to Subscriber.

Upon delivery by the Company to the Subscribers after the Closing Date of any notice or information, in writing, electronically or otherwise, and while Preferred Stock, Shares, Warrants, or Warrant Shares are held by such Subscribers, unless the Company has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or Subsidiaries, the Company shall within one business day after any such delivery publicly disclose such material, nonpublic information on a Report on Form 8-K. In the event that the Company believes that a notice or communication to a Subscriber contains material, nonpublic information, relating to the Company or Subsidiaries, the Company shall so indicate to such Subscriber prior to delivery of such notice or information. Subscriber will be granted sufficient time to notify the Company that Subscriber elects not to receive such information. In such case, the Company will not deliver such information to Subscriber. In the absence of any such indication, such Subscriber shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice and information do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries.
Non-Public Information. The Company covenants and agrees that except for schedules and exhibits to this Agreement which information thereon will be publicly disclosed within four (4) business days after the Closing Date, neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf will at any time provide any Subscriber or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Subscriber shall have agreed in writing to receive such information. The Company understands and confirms that each Subscriber shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

(ii)
amend its certificate of incorporation, by-laws or its charter documents so as to adversely affect any rights of the Subscribers;

(a)
The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Subscribers, the Subscribers’ officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, control persons and principal shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Subscriber or any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by the Company or breach of any warranty by the Company in this Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or other Transaction Documents delivered pursuant hereto, or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by the Company of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by the Company hereunder, or any other Transaction Documents entered into by the Company and Subscriber relating hereto.
In no event shall the liability of any Subscriber or permitted successor hereunder or under any Transaction Document or other agreement delivered in connection herewith or under any circumstances be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Subscriber upon the sale of Securities.
(c)
Each Subscriber agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company, the Subsidiary and each of its officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, control persons and principal shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company, Subsidiary or any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by the Subscriber or breach of any warranty by the Subscriber in this Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or other Transaction Documents delivered pursuant hereto, or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by the Subscriber of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by the Subscriber hereunder, or any other Transaction Documents entered into by the Company and Subscriber relating hereto.
11.
Additional Post-Closing Obligations.
11.1.
Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time Preferred Stock is outstanding there is not an effective registration statement covering all of the Shares and Warrant Shares and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the 0000 Xxx) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to each holder of any of the Securities entitled to registration rights under this Section 11.1 written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen calendar days after receipt of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of the Shares or Warrant Shares such holder requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights. The obligations of the Company under this Section may be waived by any holder of any of the Securities entitled to registration rights under this Section 11.1. The holders whose shares are included or required to be included in such registration statement are granted the same rights, benefits, liquidated or other damages and indemnification granted to other holders of Securities included in such registration statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the registration rights granted hereunder to the holders of Securities shall not be applicable for such times as such Shares and Warrant Shares may be sold by the holder thereof without restriction pursuant to Section 144(b)(1) of the 1933 Act. In no event shall the liability of any holder of Securities or permitted successor in connection with any Shares of Warrant Shares included in any such registration statement be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Subscriber upon the sale of the Shares and Warrant Shares sold pursuant to such registration or such lesser amount applicable to other holders of Securities included in such registration statement.
11.2.
Delivery of Unlegended Shares.
(a)
Within seven (7) business days (such third business day being the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Date”) after the business day on which the Company has received (i) a notice that Shares or Warrant Shares or any other Common Stock held by a Subscriber have been sold pursuant to the registration statement described in Section 11.1 or Rule 144, (ii) a representation that the prospectus delivery requirements, or the requirements of Rule 144, as applicable and if required, have been satisfied, and (iii) the original share certificates representing the shares of Common Stock that have been sold, and (iv) in the case of sales under Rule 144, customary representation letters of the Subscriber and/or Subscriber’s broker regarding compliance with the requirements of Rule 144, the Company at its expense, (y) shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver to its transfer agent (with copies to Subscriber) an appropriate instruction and opinion of such counsel, directing the delivery of shares of Common Stock without any legends including the legend set forth in Section 4(i) above (the “Unlegended Shares”); and (z) cause the transmission of the certificates representing the Unlegended Shares together with a legended certificate representing the balance of the submitted Shares certificate, if any, to the Subscriber at the address specified in the notice of sale, via express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.
(b)
In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, if the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, upon request of a Subscriber, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and such Subscriber is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Unlegended Shares by crediting the account of Subscriber’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system. Such delivery must be made on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.
(c)
The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11.2 hereof later than two business days after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date could result in economic loss to a Subscriber. As compensation to a Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payment fees (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to such Subscriber for late delivery of Unlegended Shares in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date for each $10,000 of purchase price of the Unlegended Shares subject to the delivery default. If during any 360 day period, the Company fails to deliver Unlegended Shares as required by this Section 11.2 for an aggregate of thirty (30) days, then each Subscriber or assignee holding Securities subject to such default may, at its option, require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Shares and Warrant Shares subject to such default at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) the actual purchase price of such Shares or Warrant Shares, or (ii) the highest closing price of the Common Stock during the aforedescribed thirty day period and the denominator of which is the lowest conversion price during such thirty day period (“Unlegended Redemption Amount”). The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.
(d)
In addition to any other rights available to a Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to a Subscriber Unlegended Shares as required pursuant to this Agreement, within seven (7) business days after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date and a Subscriber or a broker on such Subscriber’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Subscriber of the shares of Common Stock which such Subscriber was entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to such Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by such Subscriber) the amount by which (A) such Subscriber’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares together with interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum, accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if a Subscriber purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to $10,000 of purchase price of shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, the Company shall be required to pay such Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. The Subscriber shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to such Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In.
(e)
In the event a Subscriber shall request delivery of Unlegended Shares as described in Section 11.2 or Warrant Shares upon exercise of Warrants and the Company is required to deliver such Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11.2 or the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Warrants, the Company may not refuse to deliver Unlegended Shares or Warrant Shares based on any claim that such Subscriber or any one associated or affiliated with such Subscriber has been engaged in any violation of law, or for any other reason, unless, an injunction or temporary restraining order from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining delivery of such Unlegended Shares or exercise of all or part of said Warrant shall have been sought and obtained by the Company or at the Company’s request or with the Company’s assistance, and the Company has posted a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of 120% of the amount of the aggregate purchase price of the Common Stock and Warrant Shares which are subject to the injunction or temporary restraining order, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains judgment in Subscriber’s favor.
11.3.
In the event commencing one hundred and eighty-one (181) days after the Closing Date, a Subscriber is not permitted to resell any of the Shares or Warrant Shares without any restrictive legend, and such sales are not permitted as a result of the unavailability to Subscriber of Rule 144(b) under the 1933 Act or any successor rule (a “144 Default”), and the sole reason for the 144 Default is that the Company is not current in its SEC periodic filings, and Subscriber is not an Affiliate or “control person” of the Company, then the Company shall pay such Subscriber as liquidated damages and not as a penalty an amount equal to two percent (2%) for each thirty (30) days (or such lesser pro-rata amount for any period less than thirty (30) days) thereafter of the purchase price of the Shares and Warrant Shares owned by such Subscriber during the pendency of the 144 Default. Liquidated damages shall not be payable pursuant to this Section 11.3 in connection with Shares and Warrant Shares for such times as such Shares and Warrant Shares may be sold by the holder thereof without restriction pursuant to Section 144(b)(1) of the 1933 Act.
12.
(a)
Right of First Refusal. Through six (6) months after the Closing Date (which period shall be tolled during the pendency of an Event of Default that is not cured during any applicable cure period), the Subscribers shall be given not less than seven (7) business days prior written notice of any proposed sale (the “Other Offering”) by the Company of its Common Stock or other securities or equity linked debt obligations, except in connection with (i) full or partial consideration in connection with a strategic merger, acquisition, consolidation or purchase of substantially all of the securities or assets of corporation or other entity which recipients of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights, (ii) the Company’s issuance of securities in connection with strategic license agreements and other partnering arrangements so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and which recipients of such securities are not at any time granted registration rights and, (iii) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or the issuances or grants of options to purchase Common Stock pursuant to stock option plans and employee stock purchase plans described on Schedule 5(d) hereto, (iv) as a result of the exercise of Warrants or conversion of Preferred Stock which are granted or issued pursuant to this Agreement, and (v) as described on Schedule 12(a) (collectively the foregoing are “Excepted Issuances”). The Subscribers who exercise their rights pursuant to this Section 12(a) shall have the right during the seven (7) business days following receipt of the notice to subscribe to purchase a pro-rata portion of such offered Common Stock, debt or other securities, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the notice of sale for the Other Offering, in the same proportion as the amount of Preferred Stock (on an as-converted basis to Common Stock) held by the Subscriber to the total amount of outstanding Common Stock of the Company at the date of the Offering. The Subscriber’s failure to provide notice to the Company during such seven (7) day period shall be deemed to be an election by the Subscriber not to participate in the Offering. The closing of the sale of Company equity to a Subscriber who elects to purchase such equity shall be conducted in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Offering. In the event such terms and conditions are modified during the notice period, the Subscribers shall be given prompt notice of such modification and shall have the right during the seven (7) business days following the notice of modification to exercise such right.
(b)
Favored Nations Provision. Other than in connection with the Excepted Issuances, from the date of this Agreement and until the sooner to occur of (i) thirty (30) months after the Closing Date, or (ii) until the Preferred Stock is no longer outstanding, if the Company shall agree to or issue (the “Lower Price Issuance”) any Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable directly or indirectly for shares of Common Stock or representing the direct or indirect right to acquire Common Stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding) to any person or entity at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than the Conversion Price in effect at such time, or less than the Warrant exercise price in effect at such time, without the consent of each Subscriber, then the Company shall issue to each Subscriber for each such occasion, additional shares of Common Stock so that the average per share price of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares then owned by Subscriber is equal to such other lower price per share and the Conversion Price and Warrant exercise price shall automatically be reduced to such other lower price. The average purchase price of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares shall be calculated separately for the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares. The delivery to such Subscriber of the additional shares of Common Stock shall be not later than the closing date of the transaction giving rise to the requirement to issue additional shares of Common Stock. Each Subscriber is granted the registration rights described in Section 11.1 hereof in relation to the additional Shares and Warrant Shares issuable as a result of the foregoing adjustment. For purposes of the issuance and adjustment described in this paragraph, the issuance of any security of the Company carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock, except Excepted Issuances, shall result in the adjustments described above upon the sooner of the agreement to or actual issuance of such convertible security, warrant, right or option and again at any time upon any subsequent issuances of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the Conversion Price or Warrant exercise price in effect upon such issuance. Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company for no consideration or for consideration that cannot be determined at the time of issue will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.001 per share of Common Stock. The Subscriber is also given the right to elect to substitute any term or terms of any other offering in connection with which such Subscriber has rights as described in this Section 12(b), for any term or terms of the offering giving rise to the Lower Price Issuance. The rights of each Subscriber set forth in this Section 12 are in addition to any other rights the Subscriber has pursuant to this Agreement, the Preferred Stock, any Transaction Document, and any other agreement referred to or entered into in connection herewith or to which such Subscriber and Company are parties.
(c)
Maximum Exercise of Rights. In the event the exercise of the rights described in Sections 12(a) or 12(b) would or could result in the issuance of an amount of Common Stock of the Company that would exceed the maximum amount that may be issued to a Subscriber calculated in the manner described in Section 7.3 of this Agreement, then the issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock of the Company to such Subscriber will be deferred in whole or in part until such time as such Subscriber is able to beneficially own such Common Stock without exceeding the applicable maximum amount set forth calculated in the manner described in Section 7.3 of this Agreement. The determination of when such Common Stock may be issued shall be made by each Subscriber as to only such Subscriber.
Subscriber s’ Trading Activity .. For so long as each Subscriber holds any of the Securities, each Subscriber shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in any short sales ( as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the 0000 Xxx) or “derivative” or hedging transactions intended to negatively impact the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities; (ii) have a “short” position in the Common Stock, (iii) engage in hedging activities at any times during the period that the Securities are outstanding, or (iv) have any affiliation with or control over any arm’s length counter-party in any transaction described in (i), (ii) or (iii). Each Subscriber further represents and warrants it had not engaged in any activities described in the previous sentence at any time prior to the execution of this Agreement.

(d)
Law Governing this Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, including but not limited to New York statutes of limitations, without regard to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be brought only in the civil or state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in the State and county of New York. The parties and the individuals executing this Agreement and other agreements referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith on behalf of the Company agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive trial by jury. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.
(e)
Specific Enforcement, Consent to Jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by law, the Company and Subscriber acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to one or more preliminary and final injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity. Subject to Section 13(d) hereof, each of the Company, Subscriber and any signatory hereto in his or her personal capacity hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction in New York of such court, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. Nothing in this Section shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(f)
Independent Nature of Subscribers. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each Subscriber under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Subscriber, and no Subscriber shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Subscriber under the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that each Subscriber has represented that the decision of each Subscriber to purchase Securities has been made by such Subscriber independently of any other Subscriber and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company which may have been made or given by any other Subscriber or by any agent or employee of any other Subscriber, and no Subscriber or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Subscriber (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. The Company acknowledges that nothing contained in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Subscriber pursuant hereto or thereto (including, but not limited to, the (i) inclusion of a Subscriber in a registration statement and (ii) review by, and consent to, such registration statement by a Subscriber) shall be deemed to constitute the Subscribers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscribers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that each Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of the Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Subscriber to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that it has elected to provide all Subscribers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because Company was required or requested to do so by the Subscribers. The Company acknowledges that such procedure with respect to the Transaction Documents in no way creates a presumption that the Subscribers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.
(g)
Damages. In the event a Subscriber is entitled to receive any liquidated damages pursuant to the Transactions, such Subscriber may elect to receive the greater of actual damages or such liquidated damages.
(h)
Consent. As used in the Agreement, “consent of the Subscribers” or similar language means the consent of holders of not less than 70% of the total of the Shares issued and issuable upon conversion of outstanding Preferred Stock owned by Subscribers on the date consent is requested.
(i)
Equal Treatment. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered and paid to all the Subscribers and their permitted successors and assigns.
(j)
Maximum Payments. Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to a Subscriber and thus refunded to the Company.
(m)
Captions: Certain Definitions. The captions of the various sections and paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted only for the purposes of convenience; such captions are not a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed in any manner to modify, explain, enlarge or restrict any of the provisions of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement the term “person” shall mean and include an individual, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a limited liability company, a trust, an unincorporated organization and a government or any department or agency thereof.
(n)
Severability. In the event that any term or provision of this Agreement shall be finally determined to be superseded, invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable pursuant to applicable law by an authority having jurisdiction and venue, that determination shall not impair or otherwise affect the validity, legality or enforceability: (i) by or before that authority of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement, which shall be enforced as if the unenforceable term or provision were deleted, or (ii) by or before any other authority of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
(o)
Successor Laws. References in the Transaction Documents to laws, rules, regulations and forms shall also include successors to and functionally equivalent replacements of such laws, rules, regulations and forms. A successor rule to 144(b)(1) under the 1933 Act shall include any rule that would be available to a non-Affiliate of the Company for the sale of Common Stock not subject to volume restrictions and after a six month holding period.
(p)

LOCKUP AGREEMENT
This AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of the __ day of June, 2008, by [__________] (“Holder”), in connection with his ownership of shares of common stock, $.001 par value (“Common Stock”), of IdeaEdge, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”).
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which consideration are hereby acknowledged, Holder agrees as follows:
1.
Background.
(a)
Holder is the beneficial owner of the amount of shares of Common Stock designated on the signature page hereto.
(b)
Holder acknowledges that the Company has entered into or will enter into at or about the date hereof a subscription agreement (“Subscription Agreement”) with subscribers (“Subscribers”) to convertible Preferred Stock which are convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock (“Preferred Stock”) and warrants which may be exercised for shares of the Company’s Common Stock (“Warrants”). Holder understands that, as a condition to proceeding with the above offering, the Subscribers have required, and the Company has agreed to obtain on behalf of such Subscribers, an agreement from Holder to refrain from selling any securities of the Company from the date of the Subscription Agreement until the earlier of (i) the repayment and/or conversion into Common Stock of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the principal amount of all Preferred Stock issued to the Subscribers pursuant to the Subscription Agreement held by the Subscribers into shares of Common Stock; and (ii) one year after the Closing Date (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), which period will be tolled during the pendency of an Event of Default (as defined in the Preferred Stock) (the “Restriction Period”), except as described below.
2.
Share Restriction.
(a)
Holder hereby agrees that during the Restriction Period, Holder will not sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock or any options, warrants or other rights to purchase shares of Common Stock or any other security of the Company which Holder owns or has a right to acquire as of the date hereof, other than in connection with an offer made to all stockholders of the Company in connection with a merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving the Company. Holder further agrees that the Company is authorized to and the Company agrees to place “stop orders” on its books to prevent any transfer of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company held by Holder in violation of this Agreement. The Company agrees not to allow to occur any transaction inconsistent with this Agreement.
(b)
Any subsequent issuance to and/or acquisition by Holder of Common Stock or options or instruments convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock is subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
(c)
Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on transfer, Holder may, at any time and from time to time during the Restriction Period, transfer the Common Stock (i) as bona fide gifts or transfers by will or intestacy, (ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of Holder, provided that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, or (iii) to a partnership of which Holder is the general partner, provided, that, in the case of any gift or transfer described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), each donee or transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions contained herein in the same manner as such terms and conditions apply to the undersigned. For purposes hereof, “immediate family” means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin.
3.
Miscellaneous.
(a)
At any time, and from time to time, after the signing of this Agreement, Holder will execute such additional instruments and take such action as may be reasonably requested by Subscribers to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.
(b)
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be brought only in the state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in the City and State of New York. The parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens. The parties executing this Agreement and other agreements referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith agree to submit to the in personam jurisdiction of such courts and hereby irrevocably waive trial by jury. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.
(c)
The restrictions on transfer described in this Agreement are in addition to and cumulative with any other restrictions on transfer otherwise agreed to by Holder or to which Holder is subject to by applicable law.
(d)
This Agreement shall be binding upon Holder, its legal representatives, successors and assigns and may not be amended or modified without the consent of the Subscribers as determined pursuant to Section 13(h) of the Subscription Agreement.
(e)
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This Agreement may be signed and delivered by facsimile and such facsimile signed and delivered shall be enforceable.
(f)
The Company agrees not to take any action or allow any act to be taken which would be inconsistent with this Agreement. The Company hereby further agrees to diligently enforce the terms of this Agreement and acknowledges that failure to do so is an Event of Default under the Preferred Stock.
(g)
All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served, (ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable overnight courier service with charges prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, or facsimile, addressed as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed effective (a) upon hand delivery or delivery by facsimile, with accurate confirmation generated by the transmitting facsimile machine, at the address or number designated below (if delivered on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received), or the first business day following such delivery (if delivered other than on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received), (b) on the first business day following the date deposited with an overnight courier service with charges prepaid, or (c) on the third business day following the date of mailing pursuant to subpart (a)(ii) above, or upon actual receipt of such mailing, whichever shall first occur.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Holder and the Company have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

Schedule 5(a) Subsidiaries
The following corporation is the only subsidiary of the Company, IdeaEdge, Inc. It was incorporated in California on April 3, 2007.
IdeaEdge, Inc.
Schedule 5(d) – Additional Issuances / Capitalization
The following amounts are as of the last Business Day [as defined in Section 13(p)] preceding the Closing Date and will be true and accurate as of the Closing Date.
There are 3,500,000 options to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock eligible for issuance under the Company’s 2007 Stock Option Plan as amended. Total options issued and outstanding under the Plan total 3,220,000 and exercise prices range from $0.50 to $0.95 per share.
There are 100,000 warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.71 per share.
There are 37,984,761 shares of common stock outstanding, while common stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis (including shares eligible to be purchased under outstanding options and warrants) totals 41,304,761.
Schedule 5(f)(i)
The terms of the License Agreement with FremantleMedia for the American Idol license allows Fremantle to terminate the license agreement in the event there is a change in the ownership or control of our Company which results in the Subsidiary shareholders existing as of the date of the execution of the license agreement not collectively maintaining the largest ownership percentage of the Company. This provision is a precaution against the Company being acquired by an entity which FremantleMedia may deem as unsuited for the license. After giving effect to the issuance of Securities under the Transaction Documents, including subsequent issuances under the most favored nations and right of first refusal clauses, the issuance of Securities under the Transaction Documents could result in such a change of ownership or control of the Company. However, the Company does not place material value on this license agreement, and the Company believes a waiver of this provision could be obtained from Fremantle in the event the change in the ownership or control of the Company were to occur.
