Members by E2S constitutes "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144
under the Securities Act of 1933 ("1933 Act") and that the Buyer Stock cannot

attorneys, accountants or other financial advisors ("Member's
Representative").

not agreeing to maintain such Seller's percentage ownership in Buyer
(including any Member's percentage ownership in Buyer that results from

additional equity and other securities for any purpose as determined by Buyer,
which issuance of securities may reduce such Seller's percentage ownership
interest in Buyer.

opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the transfer of Buyer Stock and to obtain any
additional information which Buyer or its management possesses or can acquire
without unreasonable effort or expense and in compliance with securities laws
and regulations, which is necessary to verify the accuracy of the information
provided.
4.16 Response to Inquiries. Buyer has answered all inquiries that each
Member and such Member's Representative(s), if any, have made of it concerning

Buyer Stock, and (iv) at the present time, can afford a complete loss of such
investment.
4.18 No Agency Endorsement. Each Seller understands that no federal or
state agency has passed upon the Buyer Stock or made any finding or
determination as to the fairness of the investment or any recommendation or
endorsement of the Buyer Stock.
4.19 Investment Purpose. E2S and, upon distribution of Buyer Stock to
the Member, each Member is acquiring the Buyer Stock for its or his own
account, for investment, and not for distribution, assignment or resale to
others in whole or in part. No other person has any direct or indirect
beneficial interest in the Buyer Stock to be issued pursuant to this
Agreement. Neither E2S nor any Member has any agreement or arrangement,

or attorney fees. "Claim" includes (without limitation) any Claims by a third

aggrieved party shall provide reasonable written notice to defaulting party of
the breach. From the date of notice, the defaulting party shall have 30 days
to cure the Claim. If the Claim continues after the 30-day cure period, then
the aggrieved party shall have all remedies provided by this Agreement and by
law.
10.4 Indemnity. Notwithstanding any investigation of the Business or
Assets of E2S made by or on behalf of Buyer prior to closing, E2S and Members,
for a period of two years from Closing, jointly and severally agree to defend,

Purchase Price Offset right by Buyer in good faith, whether or not ultimately
determined to be justified, will not constitute a breach or event of default
this Agreement. If Sellers shall dispute the reduction of Royalty Fees by
delivering notice to Buyer on or before the date that the deduction shall
occur, Buyer shall withhold delivery of the disputed Royalty Fees pending
resolution of the dispute pursuant to this Agreement.
10.6 Attorney Fees and Costs. If a dispute shall arise as to whether
any party is in default under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be
awarded reasonable attorney fees and costs in any suit, action or proceeding,
including trial, arbitration, mediation or appeal, as awarded by the court,
arbitrator or mediator.
10.7 Rights Cumulative. Except as expressly provided in this
Agreement, and to the extent permitted by law, any remedies described in this
Agreement are cumulative and not alternative to any other remedies available
at law or in equity.
10.8 Nonwaiver of Remedies. The failure or neglect of a party to
enforce any remedy available by reason of the failure of any other party to
observe or perform a term or condition set forth in this Agreement shall not
constitute a waiver of the term or condition. A waiver by a party (i) shall
not affect any term or condition other than the one specified in the waiver,
and (ii) shall waive a specified term or condition only for the time and in a
manner specifically stated in the waiver.
