(a) The Limitation Period (i.e., the survival period for, and the period within which any and all remedies must be exercised, except as such period may be extended to the limited extent and under the prescribed conditions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 6.01) with respect to any actual or alleged breach, misperformance or non-performance of the provisions of ARTICLE III shall be one (1) year from the Closing Date.

Section 6.15 Conflict Waiver; Attorney-Client Privilege.

(a) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, members, shareholders, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates, that:

(i) Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, LLC has acted as counsel to the Company and Sellers (collectively, the “Seller Group”), in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Buyer agrees, and shall cause the Company to agree, that, following consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, such representation and any prior representation of the Company by Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, LLC (or any successor) (“Seller Group Law Firm”) shall not preclude Seller Group Law Firm from serving as counsel to the Seller Group or any director, member, shareholder, partner, officer or employee of the Seller Group, in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(ii) Buyer shall not, and shall cause the Company not to, seek or have Seller Group Law Firm disqualified from any such representation based on the prior representation of the Company by Seller Group Law Firm. Each of the parties hereto hereby consents thereto and waives any conflict of interest arising from such prior representation, and each of such parties shall cause any of its Affiliates to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation. Each of the parties acknowledges that such consent and waiver is voluntary, that it has been carefully considered, and that the parties have consulted with counsel or have been advised they should do so in connection herewith. The covenants, consent and waiver contained in this Section 6.15(a) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Seller Group Law Firm is entitled whether pursuant to law, contract or otherwise.

(b) All communications between the Seller Group or the Company, on the one hand, and Seller Group Law Firm, on the other hand, relating to the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Privileged Communications”) shall be deemed to be attorney-client privileged and the expectation of client confidence relating thereto shall belong solely to the Seller Group and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer or the Company. Accordingly, Buyer and the Company shall not have access to any Privileged Communications or to the files of Seller Group Law Firm relating to such engagement from and after Closing and may not use or rely on any Privileged Communications in any claim, dispute, action, suit or proceeding against or involving any of the Seller Group. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Closing, (i) the Seller Group (and not Buyer or the Company) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and none of Buyer or the Company shall be a holder thereof, (ii) to the extent that files of Seller Group Law Firm in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only the Seller Group (and not Buyer nor the Company) shall hold such property rights and (iii) Seller Group Law Firm shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to Buyer or the Company by reason of any attorney-client relationship between Seller Group Law Firm and the Company or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company), on the one hand, and a third party other than any of the Seller Group, on the other hand, Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company) may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications to such third party; provided, however, that neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates (including the Company) may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Seller Group, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event that Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company) is legally required by Governmental Order or otherwise legally required to access or obtain a copy of all or a portion of the Privileged Communications, to the extent (x) permitted by applicable Law, and (y) advisable in the opinion of Buyer's counsel, then Buyer shall immediately (and, in any event, within five (5) Business Days) notify Sellers in writing so that Sellers can seek a protective order.

(c) This Section 6.15 is intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, Seller Group Law Firm. This Section shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of Seller Group Law Firm.

Section 6.16 Non-recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be brought against the Persons that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, manager, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or other Representative of any party hereto or of any Affiliate of any party hereto, or any of their successors or permitted assigns, shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of any party hereto under this Agreement or for any claim or Action based on, in respect of or by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Exhibit A

PROMISSORY NOTE


$____________________		Dated as of: ____________________

For value received, XXXXXX X. XXXXX, an Individual residing in the state of Indiana (the “Debtor”), agrees to pay to the order of ____________________, a ____________________ (“Holder”), the principal sum of ____________________ and ____________________/100 U.S. Dollars ($____________________) together with interest thereon as specified herein. The principal and interest shall be payable in sixteen (16) consecutive installments commencing on the ninetieth (90^th) day following the date on which the registration by Aqua Power Systems, Inc. (“APSI”) of its securities with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) has been qualified or declared effective and continuing every ninetieth (90^th) day thereafter (each such date, a “Payment Date”). Debtor shall be responsible for making such payments without Holder sending a bill or statement therefor.

This Promissory Note (this “Note”) is delivered pursuant to Section 2.02 of that certain Multiparty Stock Purchase Agreement by and among Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx, Xxxxx X. Xxxxx, Bulwark Capital, L.L.C. and Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx (the “Purchase Agreement”) and Debtor’s obligations hereunder are secured by that certain Assignment and Pledge of Stock dated on or about the date hereof (“Assignment”) executed by Debtor in favor of Holder pledging ____________________ (____________________) shares of common stock of Tradition Transportation Group, Inc. (the “Company”) held by Debtor or any person to which Debtor transfers such shares. Holder is not required, but may choose at its sole discretion, to rely on any security granted to it for the payment of this Note in the case of default, but may proceed directly against the Debtor. In addition, Xxxxxx’s consent to Xxxxxx’s sale of shares of common stock of the Company to APSI is expressly conditioned upon APSI’s assumption of all obligations of Debtor under this Note, the Assignment, and the Purchase Agreement.

Interest shall accrue daily on the outstanding principal amount of this Note (and on any past-due interest payment) at a rate of three percent (3.0%) per annum commencing on the date that the Commission declares the registration of Aqua Power Systems’ securities effective, and shall be paid in accordance with the schedule described above. If any payment of principal or interest on this Note is due on a day that is not a business day, such payment shall be due on the next succeeding business day, and such extension of time shall be taken into account in calculating the amount of interest payable under this Note. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days and charged for the actual number of days elapsed.

In addition to exercising any rights Holder has been granted by Debtor under the Assignment, Debtor, as evidenced by its signature below, authorizes Holder to seek any other legal means of collection if Debtor is in default of this Note.

If (a) Debtor fails to pay the principal and accrued interest on this Note on or before the applicable Payment Date, or (b) pursuant to or within the meaning of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state law relating to insolvency or relief of debtors, Debtor shall (i) commence a voluntary case or proceeding; (ii) consent to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; (iii) consent to the appointment of a trustee, receiver, assignee, liquidator or similar official; (iv) make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (v) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due, (each, an “Event of Default”) then this Note and all of the obligations hereunder shall become due immediately. Debtor shall notify Holder in writing of the occurrence of any Event of Default within five (5) days after Debtor acquires knowledge of such occurrence.

The whole or part of the principal due hereunder may be prepaid at any time without penalty provided there exists at the time of prepayment no default hereunder. Payments shall be applied first to the payment of any fees, expenses or past due amounts owing by the Debtor to Holder, second to interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance, if applicable, and third to the principal balance.

Except as expressly set forth herein, the Debtor hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance or enforcement of this Note. If an Event of Default occurs, Holder shall be entitled to recover from Debtor all reasonable costs and expenses of collection of Holder and its affiliates, including court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees, in the event collection procedures are commenced by Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note or the Assignment after any amount hereunder becomes due and payable.

If any provision of this Note is deemed by any court, having jurisdiction thereon to be invalid or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect; if any provision of this Note is deemed by any such court to be unenforceable because such provision is too broad in scope, such provision shall be construed to be limited in scope to the extent such court shall deem necessary to make it enforceable; and if any provision is deemed inapplicable by any such court to any person or circumstances, it shall nevertheless be construed to apply to all other persons and circumstances.

No delay or omission on the part of Holder in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right under this Note. No waiver of any right shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Holder nor shall a waiver on one occasion be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right on any future occasion.

This Note shall only be amended if such amendment is agreed to by both Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx, in writing, and executed by both Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx. Any notice hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 6.03 of the Purchase Agreement.

This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Indiana, without regard to its rules of conflict of laws.

THIS ASSIGNMENT AND PLEDGE OF STOCK (“Assignment”) is made and entered into as of ____________________ (the “Effective Date”), by and between XXXXXX X. XXXXX, an individual residing in the state of Indiana (the “Grantor”), and ____________________, a ____________________ (the “Secured Party”).

Recitals

A. In accordance with that Stock Purchase Agreement, dated ____________________, by and among Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx, Xxxxx X. Xxxxx, Bulwark Capital, L.L.C. and Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx (“Purchase Agreement”), Secured Party sold ____________________ (____________________) shares of Grantor’s common stock in Tradition Transportation Group, Inc. (“Shares”) on the terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Xxxxxxx has executed a Promissory Note in favor of Secured Party in the original principal amount of $____________________ for that portion of the Purchase Price not paid at the Closing (as amended, modified, or restated, the “Note”).

B. As a material inducement for Secured Party to enter into the Purchase Agreement and to accept the Note in lieu of full payment on the date herewith, Grantor has agreed to deliver this Assignment to Secured Party.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Grantor and Secured Party hereby agree as follows:

Agreement

1. Incorporation of Recitals and of Certain Provisions of the Purchase Agreement. The above recitals are hereby incorporated in this Assignment by reference and made a part hereof. The provisions of ARTICLE IV (Representations and Warranties of Buyer) and ARTICLE VI (Miscellaneous) of the Purchase Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into this Assignment as if fully set forth herein and shall apply mutatis mutandis to this Assignment.

2. Assignment and Grant of Security Interest. This Assignment is intended to be a security agreement pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code as presently in effect in the State of Indiana (the “Code”) for any of the items specified below as part of the Collateral, which, under applicable law, may be subject to a security interest pursuant to the Code. Grantor hereby assigns and conveys to Secured Party, and hereby grants Secured Party a first priority security interest in, all of its right, title and interest in and to (a) ____________________ (____________________) Shares, and all certificates, if any, representing such Shares, and all dividends, distributions of whatever nature, profits, liquidation proceeds, cash, instruments and other property or proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, arising out of, or in exchange for, any or all of such Shares; (b) all proceeds of any of the foregoing, and other amounts or property of any kind whatsoever due or to become due to Grantor thereunder or with respect thereto; (c) all replacements of and additions to any of the foregoing; and (d) all of the foregoing whether now owned or hereafter acquired (all of the foregoing interests of all of the Grantor being hereinafter collectively referred to as the (“Collateral”).

3. Security for Indebtedness. The Collateral shall secure the payment and performance of all of Grantor’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement, the Note and this Assignment, and any amounts expended by or on behalf of Secured Party for the protection and preservation of the security interest granted herein (collectively, the “Indebtedness”).

4. Further Assurance by Grantor; Representations and Covenants.

(a) Grantor has the requisite legal capacity and authority to enter into this Assignment and the Note (the “Grantor Documents”). The Grantor Documents have been executed and delivered by Grantor and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of Grantor enforceable against Grantor in accordance with their terms.

(b) The execution and delivery of the Grantor Documents by Grantor, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not (i) result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or result in the creation of any lien (other than that created under this Assignment in favor of Secured Party) upon the properties or assets of Grantor under, any provision of any agreement, Note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other contractual obligation to which Grantor is a party or by which Grantor’s properties and assets are bound or (iii) contravene or violate any provision of any law, rule or regulation.

(c) Grantor agrees that from time to time, at its sole expense, Grantor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents and take all further action that may be necessary or advisable, or that Secured Party may reasonably request, in order to protect the security interest granted hereby or to enable Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Xxxxxxx agrees not to take any action that is designed to frustrate the intent and purpose of the security interest created hereby.

(d) Grantor hereby authorizes Secured Party to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, with respect to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor where permitted by law.

(e) Grantor will defend the right, title and interest hereunder of the Secured Party, as a security interest in the Collateral granted by such Grantor, against the claims and demands of all persons whomsoever and will not sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral while any Indebtedness remains outstanding.

(f) Without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, the Grantor shall not create or suffer to be created pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code any other security interest in the Collateral, including replacements and additions thereto, or any other claims, liens or encumbrances (other than that created by this Assignment in favor of Secured Party).

5. Delivery of Collateral. On the Effective Date, all certificates or instruments representing or evidencing any of the Collateral shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of Secured Party pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, and shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to Secured Party. Upon an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), Secured Party shall have the right, at any time in its discretion, to transfer to or to register in the name of Secured Party or any of its nominees any or all of the Collateral.

6. Events of Default. An “Event of Default” under this Assignment shall be deemed to have occurred if any of the following occur: (a) the occurrence of an “Event of Default” as such term is defined and used in the Note; (b) any default in the payment or performance under, failure to comply with any covenant of, or breach of any representation or warranty in, this Assignment, the Purchase Agreement or the Indebtedness; or (c) the sale or transfer, or the attempted sale or transfer, of any of the Shares without the prior written consent of the Secured Party except that the Secured Party consents to the sale by Grantor of the Shares to Aqua Power Systems, Inc. (“APSI”) provided that APSI expressly assumes in writing, the obligations of Grantor to Secured Party under this Assignment, the Note, and the Purchase Agreement.

7. Remedies Upon Default. If any Event of Default, as defined in Section 6 hereof, shall have occurred:

(a) Secured Party may exercise, in respect of the Collateral, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code, and may also (without notice except as specified below) sell the Collateral at public or private sale, at Secured Party’s office or elsewhere, for cash, credit or future delivery and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as Secured Party may deem to be commercially reasonable as allowed under the Code. Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

(b) All cash proceeds received by Secured Party in respect of any sale of, collection from (whether or not pursuant to a sale), or other realization upon (whether or not pursuant to a sale) all or any part of the Collateral may, in the sole discretion of Secured Party, be held by Secured Party as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable to Secured Party pursuant to Section 8 hereof) by Secured Party, against all or any part of the Indebtedness, in such order as the Secured Party shall elect, in its sole discretion. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by Secured Party and remaining after payment in full of all the Indebtedness shall be paid over to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

(c) The Secured Party may transfer the whole or any part of the Collateral into the name of the Secured Party or the name of its nominee and thereafter exercise all voting and other rights in connection with the Collateral.

(d) Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Grantor hereby waives any claims against Secured Party by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale, if commercially reasonable, was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one of offeree.

(e) Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.

(f) Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Assuming that such sales are made in compliance with federal and state securities laws, Secured Party shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any public or private sale.

(g) Grantor recognizes that Secured Party may elect in its sole discretion to sell all or a part of the Collateral to one or more purchasers in privately negotiated transactions in which the purchasers will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Grantor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale (including, without limitation, a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), and Grantor and Secured Party agree that such private sales shall be made in a commercially reasonable manner and that Secured Party has no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay sale of any Collateral to permit the issuer thereof to register the Collateral for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act.

(h) If Secured Party disposes of the Collateral, Xxxxxxx agrees to pay any deficiency remaining after application of the net proceeds to any indebtedness secured hereby.

8. Expenses. Grantor will, upon demand, pay to Secured Party the amount of any and all expenses, including the fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which Secured Party may incur in connection with (a) the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (b) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Secured Party hereunder, or (c) the failure by any Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

9. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of Secured Party and the security interest hereunder, and all obligations of Grantor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Note, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; or

10. Continuing Assignment and Security Interest. This Assignment shall create a continuing assignment of and security interest in the Collateral and shall: (a) remain in full force and effect until payment and performance in full of all of the Indebtedness; (b) be binding upon Grantor and their respective successors and assigns; and (c) inure to the benefit of Secured Party, its representatives, successors, transferees and assigns. Upon the payment and performance in full of all of the Indebtedness owed by Grantor to Secured Party, the assignment and security interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantor. Upon any such termination, Secured Party will execute and deliver to Grantor such documents as Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.
