Stock of the Company, the undersigned desire to enter into this Agreement and
restrict the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, hypothecation or
alienation of the Common Stock, all on the terms set forth below.

mutual covenants contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement,
Alexander may transfer its shares of Common Stock to its affiliates, partners

representative of the transferee) executes an agreement to be bound by all of
the terms of this Agreement.
2. Alexander may only sell Shares subject to the following
conditions:
2.1. Alexander shall be allowed to sell Shares in blocks of

sale price plus .25 basis points. (For example, Xxxxxxxxx xxxxx 5,000 Shares

on one occasion only, sell an additional 5,000 Shares at that price.
2.5. The Shares may not be sold at a price below $1.00 per
share.
2.6. Alexander shall be allowed to sell up to fifteen (15%)
percent of its Shares held as of the date hereof during each three month
period; provided, however, that in the event Alexander does not sell its full
15% during any three-month period, Alexander may sell the difference between
15% of the Shares held as of the date hereof and the Shares actually sold
during such three-month period in the next successive three-month period.
2.7. Alexander agrees that it will not engage in any short
selling of the Shares.
3. All 75,000 of the Shares owned as outlined herein shall be
included in the next registration statement to be filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Registration Statement") of Wizzard for the
benefit of Alexander, at no cost to him.

"Effective Date"), Alexander may commence the resale of the Shares as provided
herein, and these resale limitations shall continue with respect to all shares
for a period of twelve months from the Effective Date.

of the restrictions hereunder, whether such Shares are owned on the date
hereof or are hereafter acquired (whether by issuance, transfer, upon exercise
of any warrants or options currently held by Alexander or otherwise).
6. This Agreement shall terminate twelve months from the
Effective Date, and thereafter all provisions contained herein shall cease and
be of no further force or effect.
7. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein,
the Company may, at any time and from time to time, waive any of the
conditions or restrictions contained herein to increase the liquidity of the
Common Stock or if such waiver would otherwise be in the best interests of the
development of the trading market for the Common Stock.
8. In the event of a tender offer to purchase all or
substantially all of the Company's issued and outstanding securities, or a
merger, consolidation or other reorganization with or into an unaffiliated
entity, this Agreement shall terminate and the Shares restricted pursuant
hereto shall be released from such restrictions if the requisite number of the
record and beneficial owners of the Company's securities then outstanding are
voted in favor of such tender offer, merger, consolidation or reorganization.
9. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other
agreements between the parties, Alexander shall be entitled to its respective
beneficial rights of ownership of the Shares, including the right to vote the
Shares for any and all purposes.
10. The Shares and per share price restrictions covered by this
Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted should the Company make a dividend
or distribution, undergo a forward split or a reverse split or otherwise
reclassify its shares of Common Stock.
11. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts
with the same force and effect as if all parties had executed the same
document.
12. All notices, instructions or other communications required
or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be given in writing
and delivered by certified mail, return receipt requested, overnight delivery
or hand-delivered to all parties to this Agreement at the addresses set forth
above. All notices shall be deemed to be given on the same day if delivered
by hand or on the following business day if sent by overnight delivery or the
second business day following the date of mailing.
13. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be
amended except by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto.

accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado applicable to contracts
entered into and to be performed wholly within said State.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have duly executed and
delivered this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
