and the holders of record (the "third party beneficiaries") of the Company's
outstanding securities, including the Company's Common Stock, $.0001 par
value (the "Stock") at the date hereof and during the pendency of this
letter agreement that the Holder will not transfer, sell, contract to sell,
devise, gift, assign, pledge, hypothecate, distribute or grant any option to
purchase or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, its shares of
Stock of the Company owned beneficially or otherwise by the Holder except in
connection with or following completion of a merger, acquisition or other
transaction by the Company resulting in the Company no longer being
classified as a blank check company as defined in Section 7(b)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Any attempted sale, transfer or other disposition in violation of
this letter agreement shall be null and void.
The Holder further agrees that the Company (i) may instruct its transfer
agent not to transfer such securities (ii) may provide a copy of this letter
agreement to the Company's transfer agent for the purpose of instructing the
Company's transfer agent to place a legend on the certificate(s) evidencing

securities is subject to the terms of this letter agreement and (iii) may
issue stop-transfer instructions to its transfer agent for the period
contemplated by this letter agreement for such securities.
This letter agreement shall be binding upon the Holder, its agents, heirs,
successors, assigns and beneficiaries.
Any waiver by the Company of any of the terms and conditions of this letter
agreement in any instance must be in writing and must be duly executed by
the Company and the Holder and shall not be deemed or construed to be a
waiver of such term or condition for the future, or of any subsequent breach
thereof.
The Holder agrees that any breach of this letter agreement will cause the
Company and the third party beneficiaries irreparable damage for which there
is no adequate remedy at law. If there is a breach or threatened breach of
this letter agreement by the Holder, the Holder hereby agrees that the
Company and the third party beneficiaries shall be entitled to the issuance
of an immediate injunction without notice to restrain the breach or
threatened breach. The Holder also agrees that the Company and all third
party beneficiaries shall be entitled to pursue any other remedies for such
a breach or threatened breach, including a claim for money damages.
