Re: Selling Agreement (the “Agreement”)

Gentlemen:

IVOW, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”), proposes to offer and sell (the “Offering”), to selected investors, upon the terms set forth herein and in the Confidential Private Placement Memorandum and other documents to be supplied to the investors (which collectively, together with the attachments and exhibits thereto, is referred to as the “Offering Document”), a copy of which has been delivered to you, up to 8,500,000 units (the “Units”); each Unit consisting of 1 share of Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) and a warrant to purchase 1 share of Common Stock (the “Warrants”). The Common Stock and Warrants shall have those provisions described in Exhibit B hereto, and shall be acceptable to the Selling Agent. (The Units are sometimes referred to hereafter as the “Offered Securities”). Xxxxxx Xxxxx Securities, Inc. (the “Selling Agent”) agrees to offer and sell on an exclusive “best efforts, all or none” basis, that number of Units that results in an aggregate sales price of at least $2,000,000 (the “Minimum Number”), and on a best efforts basis with respect to additional Units having an aggregate sales price of no more than $2,500,000 during the offering period described in the Offering Document (the “Offering Period”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Offering Document. It is intended that the offer, offer for sale and sale of the Offered Securities will be exempt from the federal registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), pursuant to Regulation D promulgated under Section 3(b) and/or Section 4(2), respectively, of the 1933 Act and will qualify for an exemption from registration, if necessary, under the applicable state securities laws and regulations.

The Seller hereby confirms its agreement with Selling Agent as follows:

1. Offer and Sale of Offered Securities by Selling Agent; Compensation; Closing.

1.1 On the basis of Selling Agent’s representations, covenants and warranties, the Seller appoints Selling Agent the agent of the Seller for the period commencing on the date of the completion of the Offering Document and ending on the date set forth in the Offering Document, unless extended by the Seller and Selling Agent by their mutual

agreement for a period not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days (“Offering Termination Date”), to use Selling Agent’s best efforts to offer and sell, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Offering Document, subject only to Selling Agent’s right to engage participating broker-dealers pursuant to Section 2 hereof. The Selling Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Offering Document to use its best efforts to offer and sell the Offered Securities as agent for the Seller during the period specified above, and to attempt to find suitable accredited purchasers for the Offered Securities acceptable to the Seller.

1.2 Prior to and subject to the closing, subscription proceeds from the sale of the Offered Securities will be deposited in an escrow account at Silicon Valley Bank (the “Escrow Agent”). The Seller will be responsible for setting up the Escrow Account, pursuant to an escrow agreement among the Seller, the Selling Agent and the Escrow Agent, which escrow agreement will be approved by the Selling Agent. Subscribers will be instructed to make their checks payable to “Silicon Valley Bank, Escrow Agent for IVOW, Inc.,” or shall cause the wire transfer of immediately available funds in favor of Silicon Valley Bank, Escrow Agent for IVOW, Inc., in accordance with instructions provided by the Selling Agent. Unless at least the Minimum Number of Units have been sold during the Offering Period (as the same may be extended by the mutual agreement of the Selling Agent and the Seller), the Offering will be terminated at the end of the Offering Period, no Offered Securities will be sold in the Offering and all subscription proceeds will be refunded to subscribers by the Escrow Agent, without interest thereon. If subscriptions for at least the Minimum Number of Units are received by the end of the Offering Period (as the same may be extended by the mutual agreement of the Selling Agent and the Seller), a closing (the “First Closing”) will occur as soon as possible after subscriptions for the Minimum Number have been accepted by the Seller. After the First Closing, one or more subsequent closings (the “Additional Closings”) will occur thereafter on such dates as mutually determined by the Seller and the Selling Agent, but in no event later than ten (10) days after the end of the Offering Period. (The First Closing and any Additional Closing shall each be referred to herein as a “Closing” and the last of the Closings shall be referred to as the “Final Closing”).

1.3 For purposes hereof, the Minimum Number of Units shall not be deemed to have been sold unless (x) subscription agreements, completed and fully executed by subscribers who are accredited investors have been received covering the Minimum Number of the Units and (y) all checks, drafts and wire transfers submitted by such subscribers in payment of the purchase price of such Units have been received by the Escrow Agent and have cleared so that there are “good funds” in the Escrow Account at least equal to the aggregate purchase price of the Minimum Number of Units.

1.4 As compensation for the Selling Agent’s services hereunder, the Seller shall pay to Selling Agent in cash a selling commission (“Commission”) upon each Closing, in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the aggregate offering price of the Offered Securities sold by the Selling Agent or its authorized agent at such Closing. At each Closing of the Offering, the Seller shall pay the Selling Agent its Commission relating to the sale of the Offered Securities that are subject of the Closing provided that the Seller or counsel for the

Seller has received all documents, including but not limited to, an executed Subscription Agreement for each investor (“Subscription Documents”) previously furnished to Selling Agent which the Selling Agent is required to deliver to the Seller or counsel for the Seller prior to Closing. All or any portion of such Commission may be re-allowed to Participating Broker-Dealers (as hereinafter defined). No Offered Securities shall be considered to have been sold by Selling Agent or any Participating Broker-Dealer selected by Selling Agent unless the purchaser is acceptable to the Seller, and no compensation will be payable with respect to any agreement for the purchase of Offered Securities if the Subscription Agreement therefor is not actually accepted by the Seller. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Seller shall not be required to pay a Commission to Selling Agent and Selling Agent shall not be entitled to a Commission, pursuant to this Section 1.4 or any other provision, if to do so would cause the Seller to violate federal or state securities laws, regulations or rules or any other law applicable to the Offering.

1.5 The Seller will pay all of its costs relating to the Offering contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, audit expenses, issuance costs and taxes, counsel fees for the preparation of the Offering Documents, filing fees and disbursements of counsel relating to the qualification of the Offered Securities under federal securities laws, and legal fees and expenses of counsel in connection with qualifying the Offered Securities under the state blue sky laws. To the extent required by law, the Seller shall qualify the Offered Securities for offer and sale in those jurisdictions designated by the Selling Agent. The Seller’s counsel shall be responsible for state blue sky securities laws compliance by the Seller.

1.6 The Seller shall pay the Selling Agent at each Closing a non-accountable expense allowance of 1.0% of the aggregate dollar value of Units sold at such Closing, $5,000 of which shall be advanced to Selling Agent contemporaneous with the execution of this Agreement.

1.7 Once the Offered Securities are sold, or the Offering Period terminates, the agency between the Seller and the Selling Agent shall terminate. The Selling Agent, on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, accepts such appointment as the limited agent of the Seller and agrees to use its best efforts to find purchasers for the Offered Securities.

1.8 Upon each Closing of the sale of the Offered Securities offered by the Seller hereunder, the Seller will issue to the Selling Agent at a purchase price of $.001 per warrant, warrants to purchase five percent (5%) of the Units sold in the Offering (“Selling Agent’s Warrants”). The Selling Agent’s Warrants shall be exercisable at any time during the five (5) years from the date of First Closing at an exercise price equal to one hundred and twenty percent (120%) of the offering price. The Selling Agent’s Warrants shall be in the form and shall contain the provisions set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.

1.10 Each Closing shall be held at the offices of the Selling Agent, 000 X. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, 0^xx Xxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx, XX 00000, or in an alternative location and at such time and date as Selling Agent and the Seller may mutually agree.

2. Participating Broker-Dealers. The Seller hereby authorizes Selling Agent to engage other qualified broker-dealers (the “Participating Broker-Dealers”) to assist the Selling Agent in the placement of the Offered Securities; provided that during all times that each such Participating Broker-Dealer shall offer and sell the Offered Securities, each such Participating Broker-Dealer shall be registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”), shall be a member in good standing of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (“NASD”), and shall be authorized to offer and sell the Offered Securities under the laws of the jurisdictions in which the Offered Securities will be offered and sold by such Participating Broker-Dealer. All Participating Broker-Dealers will be required to execute a Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement, the form of which is subject to the reasonable approval of the Seller, with Selling Agent containing substantially the same terms and conditions as this Agreement, including, without limitation, the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.2 below and provisions for indemnification of the Seller to the same extent as your indemnification provided in Section 7 below. Any commissions, fees, or expenses payable to such Participating Broker-Dealers will be paid by the Selling Agent and not by the Seller.

3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

3.1 The Seller represents, warrants and covenants to Selling Agent that, except as set forth in Schedule 3.1 hereof:

(a) The Seller and each subsidiary is a corporation duly formed and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation as in effect on the date of this Agreement, with adequate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to own its property and to conduct its business as described in the Offering Document; and the Seller and each subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which it owns or leases substantial properties or in which the conduct of its business requires such qualification except for such jurisdictions in which the failure to qualify in the aggregate would not have material and adverse effect on the earnings, affairs or business prospects of the Seller or any such subsidiary (a “Material Adverse Effect”) and in which jurisdictions such failure may be cured without such Material Adverse Effects; the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller has been duly and validly authorized and will not result in a breach of its Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws; and when executed and delivered by both parties hereto, this Agreement will be a valid and binding obligation of the Seller, assuming the due execution by the Selling Agent, enforceable in accordance with its terms (except to the extent that enforceability of the indemnification provisions may be limited under applicable securities laws and except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights or general principles of equity); and the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated and compliance

with the terms of this Agreement by the Seller do not and will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or any applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any government, government instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Seller, to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound;

(a) Selling Agent shall not have taken or failed to take any action at any time at or prior to Closing, which, in the opinion of the Seller or counsel for Seller, conflicts or would conflict with, or otherwise make unavailable, the exemption from registration requirements for the offer and sale of the Offered Securities under applicable securities laws and regulations.

(b) If any of the conditions specified in this Section 5 shall not have been fulfilled when and as required by this Agreement to be fulfilled, all the obligations of the Seller under this Agreement may be terminated in writing at any time at or prior to Closing, and any such termination shall be without liability to the parties, and further provided that the obligations under Section 7 and Section 9.1 shall nevertheless survive and continue thereafter.

(c) Except as contemplated herein or as set forth in the Offering Document, during the period subsequent to the date hereof, and prior to Closing, the Seller and each subsidiary: (i) shall have conducted its business in the usual and ordinary manner as the same was being conducted on the date hereof, and (ii) except in the ordinary course of its business, the Seller and each subsidiary shall not have incurred any liabilities or obligations (direct or contingent), or disposed of any assets, or entered into any material transaction or suffered or experienced any substantially adverse change in its condition, financial or otherwise, or in its working capital position. At Closing, the capitalization of the Seller shall be substantially the same as set forth in the Offering Document.

(f) The representations and warranties of the Seller made in this Agreement or in any document or certificate delivered to the Selling Agent pursuant hereto shall be true and correct on and as of the Closing with the same force and effect as though such representations and warranties have been made on and as of the Closing, and the Selling Agent shall have received a certificate, dated the Closing Date, to such effect executed by the Chairman of the Board or President of the Seller.

the SA Indemnified Parties in connection with investigation of or defending against any such loss, claim, expense, damage, liability, (or actions in respect thereof); provided, however, that the Seller shall not be required to indemnify the SA Indemnified Parties for any payment made to any claimant in settlement of any suit or claim unless such payment is agreed to by the Seller (which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld) or by a court having jurisdiction of the controversy. This indemnity agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any investigation made by Selling Agent or on Selling Agent’s behalf, shall survive consummation of the sale of the Offered Securities hereunder and shall be in addition to any liability which the Seller may otherwise have.

7.2 Selling Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and each person, if any, who controls the Seller within the meaning of the Acts, Seller’s affiliated entities, partners, employees, legal counsel and agents (the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) against any losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), joint or several, to which the Seller Indemnified Parties or any such controlling person may become subject, under the Acts or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or omission or any alleged untrue statement or omission in the Offering Document contained in or omitted from the Offering Document in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to the Seller by Selling Agent or any Participating Broker-Dealer or either of them specifically for use in preparation of the Offering Document or selling material, as the case may be; and will reimburse the Seller Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, expense, damage, liability, (or actions in respect thereof); provided, however, that Selling Agent shall not be required to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties for any payment made to any claimant in settlement of any suit or claim unless such payment is approved by a court having jurisdiction over the controversy or Selling Agent agrees to such settlement (which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld); and provided further that Selling Agent shall not be liable under this Section 7.2 for any losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities arising out of any act or failure to act on the part of any other person except Selling Agent, its partners, employees and agents (including registered representatives) or any Participating Broker-Dealer. This indemnity agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any investigation made by or on behalf of the Seller and shall survive consummation of the sale of the Offered Securities hereunder and the termination of this Agreement, and shall be in addition to any liability which Selling Agent may otherwise have. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount that the Selling Agent is required to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties, exceed in the aggregate the compensation received by the Selling Agent hereunder, except in the case of fraud on the part of the Selling Agent.

7.3 The indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party in writing promptly after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of any and all claims which have been served upon the indemnified party. In case any action is brought against any indemnified party upon any such claim, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense, or if it so elects, in accordance with arrangements satisfactory to any other indemnifying party or parties similarly notified, to

assume the defense thereof, with counsel who shall be satisfactory to such indemnified party and other indemnified parties who are defendants in such action; and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and the retaining of such counsel by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, other than the reasonable costs of investigation, unless the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are or may be defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party), in any of which circumstances such expenses shall be borne by the indemnifying party.

8. Termination of Agreement.

8.1 This Agreement shall terminate:

(a) If at any time after commencement of the Offering, any material condition of Selling Agent’s obligations hereunder shall not have been met or shall cease to be met and Selling Agent shall have given to the Seller notice of Selling Agent’s desire to terminate this Agreement on account of the nonfulfillment of such condition; or

(b) If the Seller, at any time, gives notice to Selling Agent to terminate the Offering; or
