California corporation (the “Company”) and CAPITAL GROWTH FINANCIAL, LLC, the representative of the
underwriters, a Florida limited liability company (hereinafter referred to variously as the

W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Representative has agreed pursuant to the underwriting agreement (the
“Underwriting Agreement”) between the Representative, on behalf of the several underwriters, the
Company and the Selling Security Holders named therein, to underwrite, on a firm commitment basis,
the Company’s proposed public offering (“Public Offering”) of up to [5,997,174] units (exclusive of
[899,576] over allotment units) (“Public Units”) at a public offering price of [$6.00] per Public
Unit, each Public Unit consisting of one (1) share of the Company’s common stock no par value per
share (“Common Stock”) and one (1) Redeemable Common Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase one-half of
one share of Common Stock (“ Public Warrant”); and
WHEREAS, the Company proposes to issue to the Representative options (“Representative’s Unit
Purchase Options”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 416,667 Units [10% of the Public Units sold in
the Offering excluding Public Units being sold by the Selling Security Holders and Public Units
issuable in the event the over-allotment option is exercised] (the “Representative Units”) of the
Company at a purchase price of $.001 per Representative’s Unit Purchase Option, exercisable at
[120%] of the public offering price of the Public Units; and
WHEREAS, the Representative Units shall be identical to the Public Units and each
Representative Unit shall consist of (i) one share (“Representative Share”) of Common Stock of the
Company (“Common Stock”) and (ii) one Warrant (“Representative Warrant”); and
WHEREAS, the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options to be issued pursuant to this Agreement
will be issued by the Company on the Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Underwriting
Agreement) in consideration for, and as part of the compensation in connection with the Public
Offering;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the payment by the Representative to the
Company of an aggregate of Four Hundred Seventeen Dollars ($417.00 or $0.001 per Representative
Unit), the agreements herein set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Grant. The Holder is hereby granted the right to purchase, at any time from
____________2007 [one year from the Effective Date] until 5:00 P.M., Pacific Time, on ____________,
2011, up to an aggregate of [416,667] Representative Units at an initial exercise price per
Representative Unit (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8 hereof) of [120%] of the Public
Offering Price (the “Exercise Price”).
2. Representative’s Unit Purchase Option Certificates. The Representative’s option
certificates (the “Representative’s Unit Purchase Option Certificates”) delivered and to be
delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be in the form set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto
and made a part hereof, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions, and other
variations as required or permitted by this Agreement.
3. Exercise of Representative’s Unit Purchase Options.
3.1 General. The Representative’s Unit Purchase Options initially are exercisable at
the exercise price (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8 hereof) per
Representative Unit, as set forth in Section 6 hereof, payable by (i) certified or official
bank check in New York Clearing House funds, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8
hereof; or (ii) through a cashless exercise.
3.2 Cashless Exercise. In lieu of the payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the
number of Representative Units for which the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options are
exercisable in the manner required hereby, the Holder shall have the right (but not the
obligation) to convert any exercisable but unexercised portion of the Representative’s Unit
Purchase Options into Representative Units (“Conversion Right”) as follows: upon exercise
of the Conversion Right, the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the
Holder of any of the Exercise Price in cash) that number of Representative Units (or,
following separation of the Public Units, that number of Representative Shares and
Representative Warrants comprising that number of Representative Units) equal to the
quotient obtained by dividing (x) the “Value” (as defined below) of the portion of the
Representative’s Unit Purchase Options being converted by (y) the Current Market Value (as
defined below). The “Value” of the portion of the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options
being converted shall equal the remainder derived from subtracting (a) (i) the Exercise
Price multiplied by (ii) the number of Representative Units underlying the portion of the
Representative’s Unit Purchase Options being converted from (b) the Current Market Value of
a Public Unit multiplied by the number of Representative Units underlying the portion of the
Representative’s Unit Purchase Options being converted. As used herein, the term “Current
Market Value” per Public Unit at any date means: (A) in the event that neither the Public
Units nor Public Warrants are still trading, the remainder derived from
2
subtracting (x) the exercise price of the Representative Warrants multiplied by the
number of Representative Shares issuable upon exercise of the Representative Warrants
underlying one Representative Unit from (y)(i) the Current Market Price of the Common Stock
multiplied by (ii) the number of Representative Shares underlying one Representative Unit,
which shall include the shares of Common Stock underlying the Representative Warrants; (B)
in the event that the Public Units, Common Stock and Public Warrants are still trading, (i)
if the Public Units are listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq
National Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor exchange),
the last sale price of the Public Units in the principal trading market for the Public Units
as reported by the exchange, Nasdaq or the NASD, as the case may be, on the last trading day
preceding the date in question; or (ii) if the Public Units are not listed on a national
securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or the
NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor exchange), but are traded in the residual
over-the-counter market, the closing bid price for Public Units on the last trading day
preceding the date in question for which such quotations are reported by the Pink Sheets,
LLC or similar publisher of such quotations; and (C) in the event that the Public Units are
not still trading but the Common Stock and Public Warrants underlying the Public Units are
still trading, the Current Market Price of the Common Stock plus the product of (x) the
Current Market Price of the Public Warrants and (y) the number of Representative Shares
underlying the Representative Warrants included in one Representative Unit. The
“Current Market Price” shall mean (i) if the Common Stock (or Public Warrants, as
the case may be) is listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq
National Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor exchange),
the last sale price of the Common Stock (or Public Warrants) in the principal trading market
for the Common Stock as reported by the exchange, Nasdaq or the NASD, as the case may be, on
the last trading day preceding the date in question; (ii) if the Common Stock (or Public
Warrants, as the case may be) is not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on
the Nasdaq National Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or the NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or
successor exchange), but is traded in the residual over-the-counter market, the closing bid
price for the Common Stock (or Public Warrants) on the last trading day preceding the date
in question for which such quotations are reported by the Pink Sheets, LLC or similar
publisher of such quotations; and (iii) if the fair market value of the Common Stock cannot
be determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, such price as the Board of Directors of
the Company shall determine, in good faith. In the event the Public Warrants have expired
(or are redeemed) and are no longer exercisable, no “Value” shall be attributed to the
Representative Warrants underlying the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options.
Additionally, in the event that the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options are exercised
pursuant to this Section and the Public Warrants are still trading, the “Value” shall be
reduced by the difference between the Representative Warrant Exercise Price and the exercise
price of the Public Warrants multiplied by the number of Representative Warrants underlying
the portion of the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options being converted.
3.3 Limitation. A Holder may only elect a Cashless Exercise if the class of securities
issuable by the Company on such exercise is publicly traded.
3
3.4 Mechanics of Exercise. Upon surrender at the Company’s principal offices in
California (presently located at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 90012),
of Representative’s Unit Purchase Options with the appropriate portion of the annexed Form
of Election to Purchase duly executed, together with payment of the Exercise Price for the
Representative Units purchased (except to the extent of a Cashless Exercise), the registered
holder of a Representative’s Unit Purchase Option (“Holder” or “Holders”) shall be entitled
to receive a certificate or certificates for the Representative Units so purchased. The
Representative Units shall be identical to the Public Units. The purchase rights represented
by each Representative’s Unit Purchase Option are exercisable at the option of the Holder
thereof, in whole or in part (but not as to fractional shares of Common Stock underlying the
Representative Units). In the case of the purchase of less than all the Representative Units
purchasable under any Representative’s Unit Purchase Option Certificate, the Company shall
cancel the Representative’s Unit Purchase Option Certificate upon the surrender thereof, and
shall execute and deliver a new Representative’s Unit Purchase Option Certificate of like
tenor for the balance of the Representative Units purchasable thereunder.
4. Issuance of Certificates. Upon the exercise of Representative’s Unit Purchase Options, the
issuance of certificates for the Representative Units, Representative Warrants and Representative
Shares or other securities, properties or rights underlying such Representative’s Unit Purchase
Option, shall be made forthwith (and in any event within five (5) business days thereafter) without
charge to the Holder thereof including, without limitation, any tax which may be payable in respect
of the issuance thereof, and such certificates shall (subject to the provisions of Sections 5 and 7
hereof) be issued in the name of, or in such names as may be directed by, the Holder thereof;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in
respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificates in a name
other than that of the Representative and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver
such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have
paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Company that such tax has been paid.
The Representative’s Unit Purchase Options and the certificates representing the
Representative Units, Representative Warrants and Representative Shares issuable upon exercise of
the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options, as well as the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the Representative Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) shall be executed on behalf of the Company by
the manual or facsimile signature of the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors or any
President or Vice President of the Company under its corporate seal reproduced thereon, attested to
by the manual or facsimile signature of the then present Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the
Company. The Representative’s Unit Purchase Options shall be dated the date of the execution by the
Company upon initial issuance, division, exchange, substitution or transfer. The certificates
representing the Representative Units, Representative Warrants, Representative Shares and Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise of the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options shall be identical in
form and substance to those issued and sold to the public in connection with the Public Offering,
including the terms of redemption for the Public Warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at
the time of exercise of a Representative’s Unit Purchase Option, the Representative Units into
which the Representative’s
4
Unit Purchase Option are exercisable have been separated and no longer trade as Public Units,
then, upon exercise of the Representative’s Unit Purchase Option, and in lieu of Representative’s
Units, the Company shall issue to the registered Holder, in the manner provided in the first
paragraph of this Section 4:
(i) such number of Representative Shares as would have been included in each of the
Representative Units had Representative Units been issued upon exercise of the Representative’s
Unit Purchase Option by such Holder, registered in such name(s) as may be designated by the Holder
not inconsistent with Section 5 hereof; and
(ii) such number of Representative Warrants as would have been included in the
Representative’s Units had Representative Units been issued upon exercise of the Representative’s
Unit Purchase Option by such Holder, registered in such name(s) as may be designated by the Holder
not inconsistent with Section 5 hereof.
5. Restriction On Transfer of Representative’s Unit Purchase Option. Neither the
Representative’s Unit Purchase Options nor the securities of NGTV issuable thereunder may be sold
during the Offering, or sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of
any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective
economic disposition of the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options or the NGTV securities issuable
thereunder by any person during the 180 days immediately following the effective date of the
Registration Statement or the commencement of the Offering, whichever is later, except transfers to
any NASD member participating in the Offering or its officers or partners, or except as otherwise
specifically permitted by NASD Conduct Rule 2710(g)(2).
6. Exercise Price.
6.1 Initial and Adjusted Exercise Price. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8
hereof, the initial exercise price of each Representative’s Unit Purchase Option shall be
[$7.20] (120% of Unit Offering Price) per Unit. The exercise price shall be adjusted from
time to time in accordance with the provisions of Section 8 hereof.
6.2 Exercise Price. The term “Exercise Price” herein shall mean the initial exercise
price or the adjusted exercise price, as the context may require.
7. Registration Rights.
7.1 Demand Registration Under the Securities Act of 1933. At any time commencing
after ____________, 2007 [one (1) year from the Effective Date] through and including

the Company of such request.
7.2 Piggyback Registration. If, at any time commencing after ____________, 2006,
through and including ____________, 2011 [five (5) years from the Effective Date], the
Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Act (other than in connection
with a merger or pursuant to Form S-8 or similar form) it will give written notice by
registered or certified mail, at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing of each such
registration statement, to the Representative and to all other Holders of Representative’s
Unit Purchase Options, Representative Units, Representative Warrants, Representative Shares
and Warrant Shares underlying the Representative Units, of its intention to do so. If any of
the Representatives or other Holders of Representative’s Unit Purchase Options,
Representative Units, Representative Warrants, Representative Shares or Warrant Shares
underlying the Representative Units, notify the Company within twenty (20) days after
receipt of any such notice of its or their desire to include any of the Representative
Units, Representative Warrants, Representative Shares and/or Warrant Shares beneficially
owned by them in such proposed registration statement, the Company shall afford each of the
Representative and each such Holder, the opportunity to have any of their Representative
Units, Representative Warrants, Representative Shares and/or Warrant Shares registered under
such registration statement.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.2, the Company shall have the right at
any time after it shall have given written notice pursuant to this Section 7.2 (irrespective
of whether a written request for inclusion of any such securities shall have been made) to
elect not to file any such proposed registration statement, or to withdraw the same after
the filing but prior to the Effective Date thereof.

registration request.
7.4 Covenants of the Company With Respect to Registration. In connection with any
registration under Section 7.1 or 7.2 hereof, the Company covenants and agrees as follows:
(a) The Company shall use its best efforts to file a registration statement
within sixty (60) days of receipt of any demand therefor in accordance with Section
7.1, shall use its best efforts to have any registration statement

prospectuses as shall reasonably be requested. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, the Company shall be entitled to postpone the filing of any registration
statement otherwise required to be prepared and filed by it pursuant to this Section
7.4(a) if (i) the Company is under contract or other binding legal obligation for a
material acquisition, reorganization or divestiture, or (ii) the Company is publicly
committed to a self-tender or exchange offer and the filing of a registration
statement would cause a violation of Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. In the event of such postponement, the Company shall be required to file
the registration statement pursuant to this Section 7.4(a) upon the earlier of (i)
the consummation or termination, as applicable, of the event requiring such
postponement or (ii) 90 days after the receipt of the initial demand for such

(b) The Company shall pay all costs (excluding fees and expenses of Holder(s)
counsel and any underwriting or selling commissions), fees and expenses in
connection with all registration statements filed pursuant to Sections 7.1 and 7.2
hereof including, without limitation, the Company’s legal and accounting fees,
printing expenses, and blue sky fees and expenses. If the Company shall fail to
comply with the provisions of Section 7.4(a), the Company shall, in addition to any
other equitable or other relief available to the Holder(s), be liable for any or all
incidental, special and consequential damages and damages due to loss of profit
sustained by the Holder(s) requesting registration of their Representative Units,
Representative Shares, Representative Warrants and Warrant Shares underlying the
Representative Units.
(c) The Company will take all necessary action which may be required in
qualifying or registering the Representative Shares, Representative Warrants and
Warrant Shares underlying the Representative Units included in a registration
statement for offering and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such states
as reasonably are requested by the Holder(s), provided that the Company shall not be
obligated to execute or file any general consent to service of process or to qualify
as a foreign corporation to do business under the laws of any such jurisdiction.
(d) The Company shall indemnify the Holder(s) of Representative’s Unit Purchase
Options, Representative Units, Representative Shares and Representative Warrants to
be sold pursuant to any registration statement and each person, if any, who controls
such Holders within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), against all loss,
claim, damage, expense or liability (including all expenses reasonably incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against any claim whatsoever) to which any of
them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, arising from
such registration statement but only to the same extent and with the same effect as
the provisions pursuant to which
7
the Company has agreed to indemnify the Representative contained in Section 7
of the Underwriting Agreement.
(e) The Holder(s) of Representative’s Unit Purchase Options, Representative
Units, Representative Shares, Representative Warrants and Warrant Shares underlying
the Representative Units to be sold pursuant to a registration statement, and their
successors and assigns, shall severally, and not jointly, indemnify the Company, its
officers and directors and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, against all
loss, claim, damage or expense or liability (including all expenses reasonably
incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any claim whatsoever) to
which they may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, arising
from information furnished by or on behalf of such Holders, or their successors or
assigns, for specific inclusion in such registration statement to the same extent
and with the same effect as the provisions contained in Section 7 of the
Underwriting Agreement pursuant to which the Representative has agreed to indemnify
the Company.
(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the
Holder(s) to exercise their Representative’s Unit Purchase Options or their Unit
Warrants prior to the initial filing of any registration statement or the
effectiveness thereof.
(g) If the Representative Units, Representative Shares, Representative Warrants
and Warrant Shares underlying the Representative Units are to be sold in an
underwritten public offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to furnish to
each Holder participating in the offering and to each such underwriter, a signed
counterpart, addressed to such underwriter, of (i) an opinion of counsel to the
Company dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement, and (ii) a
“cold comfort” letter dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement
signed by the independent public accountants who have issued a report on the
Company’s financial statements included in such registration statement, in each case
covering substantially the same matters with respect to such registration statement
(and the prospectus included therein) and, in the case of such accountants’ letter,
with respect to events subsequent to the date of such financial statements, as are
customarily covered in opinions of issuer’s counsel and in accountants’ letters
delivered to underwriters in underwritten public offerings of securities.
(h) The Company shall as soon as practicable after the Effective Date of the
registration statement, and in any event within 15 months thereafter, have made
“generally available to its security holders” (within the meaning of Rule 158 under
the Act) an earnings statement (which need not be audited) complying with Section
11(a) of the Act and covering a period of at least 12 consecutive months beginning
after the Effective Date of the registration statement.
8
(i) The Company shall deliver promptly to each Holder participating in the
offering requesting the correspondence and memoranda described below, and the
managing underwriters, copies of all correspondence between the Commission and the
Company, its counsel or auditors and all Company memoranda (excluding memoranda to
and from counsel) relating to discussions with the Commission or its staff with
respect to the registration statement and permit each Holder and underwriter to do
such investigation, upon reasonable advance notice, with respect to information
contained in or omitted from the registration statement as it deems reasonably
necessary to comply with applicable securities laws or rules of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (“NASD”). Such investigation shall include
access to books, records and properties and opportunities to discuss the business of
the Company with its officers and independent auditors, all to such reasonable
extent and at such reasonable times and as often as any such Holder shall reasonably
request.
(j) The Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement with the managing
underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting, if any, which underwriter shall be
subject to approval by a Majority of Holders requesting to be included in such
underwriting. Such underwriting agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory in form
and substance to the Company, each Holder and such managing underwriters, and shall
contain such representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and such other
terms as are customarily contained in agreements of that type used by the managing
underwriter(s).
The Holders shall be parties to any underwriting agreement relating to an
underwritten sale of their Representative Units, Representative Shares,
Representative Warrants and Warrant Shares underlying the Representative’s Units and
may, at their option, require that any or all the representations, warranties and
covenants of the Company to or for the benefit of such underwriter(s) shall also be
made to and for the benefit of such Holders. Such Holders shall not be required to
make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the
underwriter(s) except as they may relate to such Holders, their intended methods of
distribution, and except for matters related to disclosures with respect to such
Holders, contained or required to be contained, in such registration statement under
the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.
(k) For purposes of this Agreement, computation of a “Majority of Holders”
shall exclude Representative’s Unit Purchase Options, Representative Units,
Representative Shares and Representative Warrants, that are, at the time of
computation, then subject to a current registration statement or have been resold to
the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act or a registration statement filed with
the Commission under the Act.
8. Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Securities. The Exercise Price and number of
securities issuable with respect to the Representative Warrants shall be adjusted on the
9
same terms and conditions, and at the same time, as any adjustments in the Exercise Price and
number of shares issuable with respect to the Public Warrants required by the terms of the Public
Warrants.
9. Exchange and Replacement of Representative’s Unit Purchase Option. Each Representative’s
Unit Purchase Option Certificate is exchangeable without expense, upon the surrender thereof by the
registered Holder at the principal executive office of the Company, for a new Representative’s Unit
Purchase Option Certificate of like tenor and date representing in the aggregate the right to
purchase the same number of Representative Units as provided in the original Representative’s Unit
Purchase Options in such denominations as shall be designated by the Holder thereof at the time of
such surrender.
Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of any Representative’s Unit Purchase Option Certificate, and, in case of
loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and
reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and
cancellation of the Representative’s Unit Purchase Option Certificate, if mutilated, the Company
will make and deliver a new Representative’s Unit Purchase Option Certificate of like tenor, in
lieu thereof.
10. Elimination of Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue
certificates representing fractions of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the
Representative’s Unit Purchase Options, nor shall it be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu
of fractional interests, it being the intent of the parties that all fractional interests shall be
eliminated by rounding any fraction up to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock or
other securities, properties or rights.
11. Reservation and Listing of Securities. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep
available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the
exercise of the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options, such number of shares of Common Stock or
other securities, properties or rights as shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof. The Company
covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options and/or the
Representative Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price therefor, all Representative Units,
Representative Warrants, Representative Shares, Representative Warrants or Warrant Shares shall be
duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and not subject to the preemptive rights of any
stockholder. As long as the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options and/or Representative Units
shall be outstanding, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Representative Units,
Representative Shares, Representative Warrants and Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the
Representative’s Unit Purchase Options and Representative Units to be listed (subject to official
notice of issuance) on all securities exchanges on which the Common Stock issued to the public in
connection herewith may then be listed and/or quoted on the American Stock Exchange.
12. Notices to Representative’s Option Holders. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be
construed as conferring upon the Holders the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a
stockholder in respect of any meetings of stockholders for the election of directors or
10
any other matter, or as having any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company. If,
however, at any time prior to the expiration of the Representative’s Unit Purchase Options or
Representative Warrants and their exercise, any of the following events shall occur:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its shares of Common Stock for
the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution payable otherwise than
in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution payable otherwise than out of current or
retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such dividend or distribution
on the books of the Company; or
(b) the Company shall offer to all the holders of its Common Stock any additional shares of capital stock of the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company, or any option, right or warrant to subscribe
therefor; or
(c) a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company (other than in connection
with a consolidation or merger) or a sale of all or substantially all of its property assets
and business as an entirety shall be proposed;
then, in any one or more of such events the Company shall give written notice of such event
at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date fixed as a record date or the date of closing
the transfer books for the determination of the stockholders entitled to such dividend,
distribution, convertible or exchangeable securities or subscription rights, or entitled to
vote on such proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale. Such notice shall
specify such record date or the date of closing the transfer books, as the case may be.
Failure to give such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of any
action taken in connection with the declaration or payment of any such dividend, or the
issuance of any convertible or exchangeable securities, or subscription rights, options or
warrants, or any proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale.
13. Notices. All notices requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to have been duly made when delivered, or mailed by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested:
(a) If to the registered Holder of Representative’s Unit Purchase Options,
Representative Units, Representative Shares, Representative Warrants and Warrant Shares to
the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company; or
(b) If to the Company, to the address set forth in Section 3 hereof or to such other
address as the Company may designate by notice to the Holders.
14. Supplements and Amendments. The Company and the Representative may from time to time
mutually supplement or amend this Agreement without the approval of any holders of Representative’s
Unit Purchase Options (other than the Representative) in order to cure any ambiguity, to correct or
supplement any provision contained herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any
provisions herein or to make any other provisions in regard to matters or
11
questions arising hereunder which the Company and the Representative may deem necessary or
desirable and which the Company and the Representative deem shall not adversely affect the
interests of the Holders of Representative’s Unit Purchase Options.
15. Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Company, the Holders and their respective successors and assigns
hereunder.
16. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate at the close of business on ____________, 2011.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification provisions of Section 7 shall survive such
termination until the close of business on ____________, 2012.
17. Governing Law: Submission to Jurisdiction.
(a) This Agreement and each Representative’s Unit Purchase Option issued hereunder
shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of Florida and for all
purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of such State without giving effect
to the rules of said State governing the conflicts of laws.
(b) The Company, the Representative and, by acceptance of Representative’s Unit
Purchase Options, the Holders hereby agree that any action, proceeding or claim against it
arising out of, or relating in any way to, this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in
the courts of the State of Florida or of the United States of America Federal Courts located
in the State of Florida, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction
shall be exclusive. The Company, the Representative and the Holders hereby irrevocably waive
any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction or inconvenient forum. Any such process or
