AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made
this _____ day of April, 2008, by and between NB Design and Licensing, Inc., a
Nevada corporation (“NB”), Organic Alliance, Inc., a Texas corporation
(“Organic”), and the security holders of Organic (the “Organic Security
Holders”) who are listed on Exhibit 1.1 hereto and have executed Subscription
Agreements in the form attached in Exhibit 1.2, hereto.
WHEREAS, NB desires to acquire all of
the issued and outstanding common stock of Organic from the Organic Security
Holders in exchange for newly issued unregistered shares of common stock of
NB;
WHEREAS, Organic desires to assist NB
in acquiring all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Organic pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, all of the Organic Security
Holders, by execution of Exhibit 1.2 hereto, agree to exchange all 10,916,917
common shares they hold in Organic for 9,299,972 common shares of
NB.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
mutual promises, covenants and representations contained herein, the parties
hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE
I
Exchange
of Securities
1.1 Issuance of Securities.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, NB agrees to issue and
exchange 9,299,972 fully paid and non-assessable unregistered shares of NB’s
$.0001 par value common stock (the “NB Shares”) for all 10,916,917 issued and
outstanding shares of the no par value common stock of Organic
(the “Organic Shares”) held by the Organic Security Holders. All
NB Shares will be issued directly to the Organic Security Holders on the Closing
Date (as hereinafter defined), pursuant to the schedule set forth in
Exhibit 1.1.
1.2 Exemption from Registration.
The parties hereto intend that all NB common stock to be issued to the Organic
Security Holders shall be exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), pursuant to Section 4(2) and/or
Regulation D of the Act and rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder. In furtherance thereof, each of the Organic Security
Holders will execute and deliver to NB on the closing date of this Agreement
(the “Closing Date”) a copy of the Subscription Agreement set forth in Exhibit
1.2 hereto.
1.3 Private
Placement. Prior to the Closing Date and as a condition to
closing, Organic shall raise a minimum of $200,000 of equity capital (the
“Private Placement”). The 9,299,972 shares of NB issuable to the
Organic Security Holders shall include the shares Organic issued under the
Private Placement.
-1-
1.4 NB Common Stock Outstanding.
NB has 200,028 shares currently outstanding. On the Closing Date, Organic shall
purchase from certain NB stockholders 500,000 shares of NB common stock for
$200,000 or $.40 per share, which shares shall be cancelled and retired by
Organic. Accordingly, following the closing of the Agreement, NB shall have a
total of 10,000,000 shares outstanding, comprised of 9,299,972 shares (93% of
the total shares outstanding) held by the Organic Security Holders and 700,028
shares (7% of the total shares outstanding) retained by the original NB
stockholders.
1.5 Derivative
Securities. NB has issued six classes of common stock purchase
warrants (“Warrants”) with 1,000,028 warrants outstanding in each class. The
Warrants expire on December 31, 2008, with 2,000,056 Warrants exercisable at
$2.00 per share, 2,000,056 Warrants exercisable at $4.00 per share and 2,000,056
Warrants exercisable at $6.00 per share. In connection therewith, NB
agrees to reduce the exercise price of all such Warrants to $1.00 per share and
to extend the exercise period of the Warrants to December 31,
2011. In exchange for the exercise price reduction and extension of
the exercise period, it shall be a condition for closing that the holders of at
least 80% of the Warrants (the “NB Principals”) agree that the Warrants they
hold shall be subject to a call provision by NB on 10 days notice to the holders
if (i) the bid price of NB’s common stock is quoted at $1.25 per share or higher
and the average share volume exceeds 300,000 shares for at least one day, and
(ii) the shares underlying the Warrants are subject to a current registration
statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Both the share
price and volume must be met on the same day for the call provision to be
effective.
The NB
Principals agree by execution of this Agreement that they may sell no more than
an aggregate of 300,000 shares until the later of (a) such time as 50% of the
Warrants have been exercised, or (b) six months from the effective date of the
registration statement covering the 700,028 shares and the shares underlying the
Warrants held by the NB Principals as described in Section 8.1(c).
NB shall
also have the option during the life of the Warrants to exchange all or any part
of the Warrants held by the NB Principals for 500,000 shares of NB common
stock. If less than all of the Warrants are called by NB to be
exchanged then the number of shares issuable to the NB Principals shall be
apportioned accordingly.

Waiver.
(a) Termination. This
Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date, whether
before or after approval of matters presented in connection with the share
exchange by the stockholders of NB or by the stockholders of
Organic:
(1) By
mutual written consent of Organic and NB;
(2) By
either Organic or NB;
|
(i)
|
If
any court of competent jurisdiction or any governmental, administrative or
regulatory authority, agency or body shall have issued an order, decree or
ruling or taken any other action permanently enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
or
|
|
(ii)

2008, unless the failure to consummate the transaction is the result of a
material breach of this Agreement by the party seeking to terminate this
Agreement. If the failure to consummate the transaction is the
result of a material breach by Organic, including its inability to raise
the $210,000 of equity financing required in Section 1.3, then NB shall
retain the $15,000 deposit made to it by Organic with the letter of intent
executed by the parties on February 15,

|
(3) By
Organic, if NB breaches any of its representations or warranties hereof or fails

obligations under this Agreement.
(b) Effect of
Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by
either NB or Organic, as provided herein, this Agreement shall forthwith become
void and have no effect,
without any liability or obligation on the part of Organic or NB, except as set
forth in 9.17(a)(2)(ii) above with respect to the $15,000 deposit by Organic,
and such termination shall not relieve any party hereto for any intentional
breach prior to such termination by a party hereto of any of its representations
or warranties or any of its covenants or agreements set forth in this
Agreement.
-13-
(c) Extension;
Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing Date, the parties
may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of
any of the obligation of the other acts of the other parties, (b) waive any
inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any
document delivered pursuant hereto or waive compliance with any of the
agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part
of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in
an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The failure
of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement
or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.
(d) Procedure for Termination,
Amendment, Extension or Waiver. A termination of this
Agreement, an amendment of this Agreement or an extension or waiver shall, in
order to be effective, require in the case of Organic or NB, action by its
respective Board of Directors or the duly authorized designee of such Board of
Directors.

EXHIBIT
1.2
SUBSCRIPTION
AGREEMENT
In connection with my exchange of $.001
par value common stock of Organic Alliance, Inc. (“Organic”), for
the $.0001 par value common stock of NB Design and Licensing, Inc. (“NB”),
pursuant to the Agreement Concerning The Exchange of Securities by and among NB
Design and Licensing, Inc. and Organic Alliance, Inc. and the Security Holders
of Organic Alliance, Inc. (the “Exchange Agreement”), I acknowledge the matters
set forth below and promise that the statements made herein are true. I
understand that NB is relying on my truthfulness in issuing its securities to
me.
I hereby represent and warrant to NB
that I have the full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this
Subscription Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby. This Subscription Agreement is a legal, valid and binding
obligation of mine, enforceable against me in accordance with its
terms. I own the securities in Organic that I am exchanging for
securities of NB free and clear of all pledges, liens, encumbrances, security
interests, equities, claims, options, preemptive rights, rights of first
refusal, or any other limitation on my ability to vote such securities or to
transfer such securities to NB. I have full right, title and interest
in and to the Organic securities that I am exchanging.
I understand that NB’s common stock
(the “Securities) is being issued to me in a private transaction in exchange for
my securities in Organic and in reliance upon the exemption provided in section
4(2) and/or Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Act”) for non-public offerings and pursuant to the Exchange
Agreement. I understand that the Securities are “restricted” under
applicable securities laws and may not be sold by me except in a registered
offering (which may not ever occur) or in a private transaction like this
one. I know this is an illiquid investment and that therefore I may
be required to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time, but under
no circumstances less than one year from the date of their
issuance.
I am acquiring the Securities solely
for my own account, for long-term investment purposes only and not with a view
to sale or other distribution. I agree not to dispose of any
Securities unless and until counsel for NB shall have determined that the
intended disposition is permissible and does not violate the Act, any applicable
state securities laws or rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder.
All information, financial and
otherwise, or documentation pertaining to all aspects of my acquisition of the
Securities and the activities and financial information of NB has been made
available to me and my representatives, if any, and I have had ample opportunity
to meet with and ask questions of senior officers of NB, and I have received
satisfactory answers to any questions I asked.
In acquiring the Securities, I have
been afforded access to the Exchange Agreement and have made such independent
investigations of NB as I deemed appropriate. I am an “accredited
investor” as that term is defined in Regulation D, Rule 501 of the Act and am an
experienced investor,
have made speculative investments in the past and am capable of analyzing the
merits of an investment in the Securities.
I understand that the Securities are
highly speculative, involve a great degree of risk and should only be acquired
by individuals who can afford to lose their entire
investment. Nevertheless, I consider this a suitable investment for
me because I have adequate financial resources and income to maintain my current
standard of living even after my acquisition of the Securities. I
know that NB currently has only negligible assets and liabilities, and that
although I could lose my entire investment, I am acquiring the Securities
because I believe the potential rewards are commensurate with the
risk. Even if the Securities became worthless, I could still maintain
my standard of living without significant hardship to me or my
family.
By signing this Subscription Agreement,
I also accept and agree to be bound by and to abide by the terms and conditions
of the Exchange Agreement as if I had executed the Exchange Agreement
itself.
