not registered under the Act and shall hereafter be
referred to as the "Restricted Shares". The
Restricted Shares shall be exchanged as follows:
(1) At closing the Buyer shall
exchange 286,000 common shares of
Medley for 900,000 Restricted

written letter of direction signed

distribution computation to the
Buyer.
(2) The Restricted Shares not
exchanged at the closing shall be
retained solely in the possession
of the Sellers and shall be
available for a future exchange
with the Buyer according to the
following:
(a) Period 1: The four
months ending December
31, 1998. If net earnings
before taxes (the

The calendar years ending
1999, 2000, and 2001, the
earnings hurdle shall be

$732,400 in each year
respectively. For each
year that the net
earnings before taxes of

earnings hurdle in that
year, Sellers shall
exchange 25,000 shares of

net earnings before taxes
is less than the earnings
hurdle, but greater than
80% of the then
applicable earnings
hurdle, Sellers shall
exchange their Restricted
Shares indicated for that
period with an amount of
Medley shares equal to
the actual net earnings
before taxes divided by
the earnings hurdle, with
that number multiplied by
the number of Medley
shares to be exchanged
pursuant to the above.
If the net earnings is
greater than 33% of the earnings hurdle but
less 80% of the than the earnings hurdle,
than no exchange of shares shall take
place. However, the date for the unachieved
earning hurdle shall be extended for an
additional one (1) calendar year or half
year as applicable.
If the net earnings is
equal to or below 33% of the earnings
hurdle then Sellers will deliver to Buyer
the applicable shares for the period for no
additional Medley Shares and forfeit that
period's exchange rights.
As of December 31, 2003,

the Sellers due to the Company's failure to
achieve its earnings hurdle shall be
conveyed to Buyer or its assigns without
exchange of Medley Shares or consideration.
