Enclosed with this letter are amended and restated versions (the “Amended Agreements”) of the following agreements which were originally entered into between Eos Petro, Inc. and Clouding IP, LLC on December 26, 2012 (the “Original Agreements”): (1) an Oil & Gas Services Agreement; (2) a Warrant to Purchase Common Stock; (3) a Loan Agreement and Secured Promissory Note; and (4) a Leasehold Mortgage, Assignment, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing.
The Amended Agreements modify the following provisions of the Original Agreements:
(1) all of the agreements are now between Clouding IP, LLC and Cellteck, Inc., not Eos Petro, Inc. (Cellteck Inc. is Eos Petro, Inc.’s parent company). Since Cellteck is incorporated under Nevada law, the governing law in all of the agreements other than the Mortgage has also been changed to Nevada.
(2) the shares issuable to Clouding IP, LLC under the Loan Agreement and Secured Promissory Note have been changed from shares of common stock of Eos Petro, Inc. to shares of Series B Preferred Stock of Cellteck, Inc.
(3) The obligation to record the loan within seven business days has been removed from the Loan Agreement and Secured Promissory Note.
(4) “Failure to Deliver Common Stock” has been removed from the events of default in the Loan Agreement and Secured Promissory note.
(5) the shares issuable to Clouding IP, LLC upon exercise of the Warrant to Purchase Common Stock have been changed to shares of common stock of Cellteck, Inc. Furthermore, to protect such shares from dilution upon the occurrence of an upcoming reverse stock split:
(a) the warrants will not be exercisable until effectuation of the reverse stock split; and
(b) anti-dilution provisions specifically relating to the upcoming reverse stock split have been inserted.
(6) the cashless exercise option has been removed from the Warrant to Purchase Common Stock.
(7) the warrants issuable to Clouding IP, LLC under the Oil & Gas Services Agreement are issuable in consideration of Clouding IP, LLC’s services without the need for Clouding to make an additional $5,000 payment.
The Amended Agreements amend and restate the Original Agreements in their entirety. By signing this letter and the attached Amended Agreements, the undersigned parties hereby acknowledge that: (i) they have read, understand and consent to the modifications made to the Original Agreements in the Amended Agreements; and (ii) the Original Agreements are voided in their entirety by the attached Amended Agreements and have no further effect.
