Dear Xxx,
Thank you for your patience as we continue to build out the infrastructure and grow Armada Water Assets, Inc. into a world-class all-inclusive water treatment and oil field services business. The purpose of this Letter Agreement is to codify our agreement to modify certain of the provisions of the stock purchase agreement pursuant to which we agreed to purchase the stock of Summit Holdings, Inc. on June 5, 2013.
In regards to the above, reference is made to that Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 5, 2013 ( the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), by and among Summit Holdings, Inc. (the “Corporation”), Xxx Xxxxxxxxxx and Xxx Xxxxxxxx (collectively, “Sellers”) and Armada Water Assets, Inc. (“Buyer”), pursuant to which Xxxxx purchased from the Sellers 100% of the outstanding capital stock of the Corporation. Reference is also made to the First Supplement to the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “First Supplement”) and the Second Supplement to the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Second Supplement”). Collectively, the Stock Purchase Agreement, the First Supplement and the Second Supplement shall be referred to as the “Consolidated Stock Purchase Agreements”.
For the purposes of this Letter Agreement, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto within the Consolidated Stock Purchase Agreements.
1. Modification of Payment Terms.
(a) For the purposes of this Letter Agreement, reference is made to the terms of payment contained within the Stock Purchase Agreement; namely, Sections 1.02(b) and 1.02(c) which provided that a portion of the Purchase Price shall be paid to Sellers, pro rata based on ownership of the shares, as follows:
(i) “One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) cash, payable in five (5) equal monthly installments of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) each, the first such installment to be paid one month following Closing on the same day of the month as the day of the month of the Closing Date, and each month thereafter until paid in full”; and
(ii) “ One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) cash, payable fifteen (15) days following the initial public offering ("IPO") of Buyer's stock, or by September 30, 2013, whichever comes first.”

(b) Solely for the purposes of modifying and setting forth the agreement between the Buyer and Xxx Xxxxxxxx (separately, “Xxxxxxxx”) as to the payment of the amounts of the Purchase Price attributable to Xxxxxxxx set forth in Sections 1.02(b) and 1.02(c) of the Stock Purchase Agreement (which the parties agree is $801,000), the Buyer hereby agrees to make the following payments to Xxxxxxxx, and Xxxxxxxx agrees to accept the following payments in lieu of the amounts otherwise set forth in Sections 1.02(b) and 1.02(c) of the Stock Purchase Agreement: :
(i) $150,000.00 – paid on November 15, 2013 (receipt of which is acknowledged by Xxxxxxxx);

The failure to pay any of the above payments when due, following failure to cure after not more than 10 days following the due date, with no requirement of written notice from Xxxxxxxx to the Company, shall cause the full amount remaining unpaid to mature and become due and payable at once, at Xxxxxxxx’x option. In the event an installment or the entire unpaid balance hereunder is not paid when due, the unpaid balance and accrued interest described above shall be considered principal and shall draw interest at the rate of eight (8) percent per annum, compounded annually, until paid. In case payment of any installment or the entire unpaid balance hereunder shall not be made when due and legal process to enforce payment becomes necessary, it is agreed that a reasonable amount shall be added to and become a part of this note as Xxxxxxxx’x costs of collection, including reasonable attorney fees and costs (including those incurred on appeal and in collecting the amount due Xxxxxxxx).

2. Modification of Promissory Note.
(a) For the purposes of this Letter Agreement, reference is made to Section 1.02(d) of the Stock Purchase Agreement and section 1 of the First Supplement, which collectively describe the terms of a promissory note that was intended to be delivered to the Sellers to evidence the Buyer’s agreement to pay the Sellers the aggregate sum of $2,500,000.
(b) Solely for the purpose of modifying and setting forth the agreement between the Buyer and Xxxxxxxx as to the payment of the amount of the Purchase Price attributable to Xxxxxxxx set forth in Section 1.02(d) of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Section 1 of the First Supplement, the Buyer agrees to pay to Xxxxxxxx the principal amount of $1,273,793 in accordance with the terms of that form of Convertible Promissory Note attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Note”), and Xxxxxxxx agrees to accept the Note in satisfaction of the Buyer’s obligation to deliver the portion of the Purchase Price set forth at section 1.02(d) of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Section 1 of the First Supplement. Xxxxxxxx agrees to waive any and all past defaults and/or breaches under the Note only, however, in connection with any defaults and/or breaches prior to the date hereof, and any such waiver is not intended to cover any future defaults.
3. Security Agreement. The parties understand and agree that Sections 1 and 2 of the Second Supplement require the Buyer to execute and deliver to Xxxxxxxx a Security Agreement and UCC Financing Statement securing in second position the assets of the Corporation. Xxxxxxxx acknowledges that the Corporation has represented to Xxxxxxxx that the existing loan agreement of the senior creditor of the Corporation restricts any junior financing. Xxxxxxxx also acknowledges that the Corporation has represented to Xxxxxxxx that the Corporation has requested the senior creditor to allow the Corporation to comply with Sections 1 and 2 of the Second Supplement and the senior creditor has refused such request. Accordingly, until the existing senior creditor either permits any such junior financing, or until the senior creditor is replaced by another senior lender that permits junior financing, the Buyer will be under no obligation to deliver a Security Agreement, UCC, or otherwise secure repayment of the Note.
4. Equity Incentive. In further consideration of Xxxxxxxx’x agreement to modify the Purchase Price otherwise contained within the Consolidated Stock Purchase Agreements as evidenced by this Letter Agreement, Buyer hereby agrees to grant to Xxxxxxxx an option to purchase 50,000 shares of the restricted common stock of the Buyer at an exercise price per share equal to that price at which the Buyer’s shares of common stock may be offered to the public in an initial public offering, and if no such initial public offering occurs within two years from the date hereof, the option exercise price shall be $1.00 per share. In all events, the terms of the Options shall be subject to to the terms contained within the form of Option Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B, including, but not limited to such adjustment to the exercise price and number of options granted as a result of, among other things, recapitalizations, reorganizations, reclassifications, stock-splits, stock dividends, and the like.
