Ladies and Gentlemen:
Introduction. This agreement (this “Agreement”) constitutes the agreement between Imperial Garden & Resort, Inc., a British Virgin Islands corporation (the “Company”), on the one hand, and Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc. (the “Selling Agent”), on the other hand, pursuant to which the Selling Agent shall serve as an agent for the Company in connection with the proposed Offering (the “Offering”) on an ‘‘best efforts/all or none’’ basis of a minimum offering amount of $15,000,000 and thereafter on a ‘‘best efforts’’ basis to the maximum offering amount of up to $50,000,000 of the Company’s ordinary shares, par value US$0.01 per share (respectively, such registered shares sold in the Offering, the “Securities” and the “Ordinary Share”) to various investors (each an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”). The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the Selling Agent as follows:
Section 1. | Agreement to Act as Selling Agent. |
(a) On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein contained, and subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Selling Agent shall be the exclusive Selling Agent in connection with the Offering, which shall be undertaken pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement (as defined below), with the terms of such Offering to be subject to market conditions and negotiations between the Company and the Selling Agent. The Selling Agent will act on a best efforts basis and the Company agrees and acknowledges that there is no guarantee of the successful sale of the Securities, or any portion thereof, in the prospective Offering. Under no circumstances will the Selling Agent or any of its respective “Affiliates” (as defined below) be obligated to financially underwrite or purchase any of the Securities for its own account or otherwise provide any financing. The Selling Agent shall act solely as the Company’s agent and not as principal. The Selling Agent shall have no authority to bind the Company with respect to any prospective offer to purchase Securities and the Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase Securities and may reject any such offer, in whole or in part in its distribution. Subject to the Company’s written consent, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, the Selling Agent may (i) create a syndicate of additional Selling Agent for the Offering comprised of broker-dealers who are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and/or (ii) rely on such Selling Agent who are FINRA members to participate in placing a portion of the Offering. The Selling Agent may also retain other brokers or dealers to act as sub-agents or selected dealers on its behalf in connection with the Offering. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of, the Securities shall be made at one closing (the “Closing” and the date on which the Closing occurs, the “Closing Date”). As compensation for services rendered, on the Closing Date, the Company shall pay to the Selling Agent the fees and expenses set forth below:
(i) Cash: A cash fee (the “Cash Fee”) equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Securities at the Closing, which such Cash Fee will be allocated by the Selling Agent among the Selling Agent and/or the members of the selling syndicate and soliciting dealers in its sole discretion.
(ii) Such number of Ordinary Share Purchase Warrants (the “Selling Agent Warrants”) to the Selling Agent or its permitted designees at the Closing to purchase, in the aggregate, shares of Ordinary Share equal to 6.0% of the aggregate number of Securities sold in the Offering. The Selling Agent Warrants shall be in customary form reasonably acceptable to Selling Agent, have a term of 3 years and an exercise price of 125% of the price of Securities sold in the Offering. The Selling Agent Warrants shall not be transferable or exercisable for six months from the date of the Offering except as permitted by FINRA Rule 5110(g)(1).
(iii) | Expenses: |
A. | Subject to compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(B), the Company agrees to pay the Selling Agent a non-accountable expense fee equal to an aggregate of $270,000 (“Expense Fee”), and an accountable advance of $30,000 has heretofore been paid to the Selling Agent (the $30,000 paid to the Selling Agent, the “Advance”). Such Expenses Fee includes but is not limited to that relating to (i) background checks of our officers and directors, and preparation of printed documents for closing and (ii) deal mementos with costs incurred by the Selling Agent in connection with this offering. Such Expense Fee will be allocated by the Selling Agent among the Selling Agent and/or the members of the selling syndicate and soliciting dealers in its sole discretion and shall be exclusive of the fees of Selling Agent’s respective counsels, as set forth in Section 1(a)(iii)(B) below. Any amounts advanced pursuant to this Section 1(a)(iii)(A) that are unused shall be returned to the Company. The Selling Agent is obligated to reimburse expenses actually incurred and reimbursable, which are permitted to be reimbursed under FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(D). |
B. | The Company also agrees to pay the fees and expenses of the Selling Agent’s legal counsel related to the Offering, which fees shall not exceed $100,000 (the “Legal Fees”). Any amounts paid pursuant to this Section 1(a)(iii)(B) shall be non-refundable. |
(b) The term of the Selling Agent’s exclusive engagement will be until the earlier of (i) any time after the minimum offering amount of the ordinary shares is raised, or (ii) 120 days from the date of this prospectus (the “Exclusive Term”). If we can successfully raise the minimum offering amount within the offering period, the proceeds from the Offering will be released to the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions concerning confidentiality, indemnification and contribution contained herein will survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement, and the Company’s obligation to pay fees actually earned and payable and to reimburse expenses actually incurred and reimbursable pursuant to Section 1 hereof and which are permitted to be reimbursed under FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(D), will survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit the ability of the Selling Agent or its respective Affiliates to pursue, investigate, analyze, invest in, or engage in investment banking, financial advisory or any other business relationship with Persons (as defined below) other than the Company. As used herein (i) “Persons” means an individual or corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association, joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company, government (or an agency or subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind and (ii) “Affiliate” means any Person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by or is under common control with a Person as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
(c) If during the Exclusive Term, or within fifteen (15) months after the date of termination or expiration of this Agreement if no Closing has occurred, securities are sold by the Company to investors directly introduced to the Company by any of the Selling Agent on behalf of the Company, then the Company shall pay to the Selling Agent, at the time of each such sale, the cash fees set forth in this Section 1(a)(i) with respect to any such sale. Upon termination of this Agreement and at the request of the Company, the Selling Agent will provide the Company with a list of investors so identified by the Selling Agent, respectively, on behalf of the Company.

(d) [Intentionally omitted]
(e) It is understood and agreed that the Selling Agent will allocate 65% of the Cash Fee for payment with regard to any retail/non-institutional investors introduced by the Selling Agent or any sub-agents engaged by the Selling Agent to participate in the Offering. Such portion of the Cash Fee will be allocated to the Selling Agent or sub-agent that makes the introduction to such retail/non-institutional investor(s). The remaining 35% of the Cash Fee shall be divided equally between the Selling Agent for any gross proceeds received from a retail/non-institutional investor(s).

As of its date, the Prospectus did not and will not contain as of the date thereof any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided, however, that the preceding representations and warranties contained in this sentence shall not apply to any Selling Agent Information).

SCHEDULE A – INDEMNIFICATION
The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Selling Agent, its respective officers, directors, principals, employees, affiliates, and shareholders, and its respective successors and assigns, harmless from and against any and all loss, claim, damage, liability, deficiencies, actions, suits, proceedings and costs (including, but not limited to, reasonable legal fees and other expenses and reasonable disbursements incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any action, suit or proceeding, including any inquiry or investigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, or in appearing or preparing for appearance as witness in any proceeding, including any pretrial proceeding such as a deposition) (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of, based upon, or in any way related or attributed to, any material breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by the Company contained in this Agreement in connection with the Offering. The Company will not, however, be responsible for any Losses that have resulted from the Selling Agent Information or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any individual or entity seeking indemnification or contribution hereunder.
If Selling Agent receives written notice of the commencement of any legal action, suit or proceeding with respect to which the Company is or may be obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to this Schedule A, Selling Agent shall, within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such written notice, give the Company written notice thereof (a “Claim Notice”). Failure to give such Claim Notice within such thirty (30) day period shall not constitute a waiver by Selling Agent of its respective right to indemnity hereunder with respect to such action, suit or proceeding. Upon receipt by the Company of a Claim Notice from Selling Agent and/or with respect to any claim for indemnification which is based upon a claim made by a third party (“Third Party Claim”), the Company may assume the defense of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing, as described below. Selling Agent shall cooperate in the defense of the Third Party Claim and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend all such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trial and appeals as may be reasonably required in connection therewith. Selling Agent shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, which shall be at the Company’s expense if (i) the Company and Selling Agent shall have mutually agreed in writing to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the Company shall have failed in a timely manner to assume the defense and employ counsel or experts reasonably satisfactory to Selling Agent in such litigation or proceeding or (iii) the named parties to any such litigation or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include the Company and Selling Agent and representation of the Company and Selling Agent by the same counsel or experts would, in the reasonable opinion of Selling Agent be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the Company and Selling Agent. The Company shall not satisfy or settle any Third Party Claim for which indemnification has been sought and is available hereunder, without the prior written consent of Selling Agent which consent shall not be delayed and which shall not be required if Selling Agent is granted a general release in connection therewith. The indemnification provisions hereunder shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
The Company further agrees, upon demand by Selling Agent to promptly reimburse Selling Agent for, or pay, any reasonable fees, expenses or disbursements as to which Selling Agent has been indemnified herein with such reimbursement to be made currently as such fees, expenses or disbursements are incurred by Selling Agent. Notwithstanding the provisions of the aforementioned indemnification, any such reimbursement or payment by the Company of fees, expenses, or disbursements incurred by Selling Agent shall be repaid by Selling Agent in the event of any proceeding in which a final judgment (after all appeals or the expiration of time to appeal) is entered in a court of competent jurisdiction against Selling Agent based solely upon its respective gross negligence or intentional misconduct in the performance of its respective duties hereunder, and provided further, that the Company shall not be required to make reimbursement or payment for any settlement effected without the Company’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable or is insufficient to hold any of the Selling Agent harmless, the Company agrees to contribute the amount paid or payable by any Selling Agent in such proportion as to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the applicable Selling Agent, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Company and any of the Selling Agent as well as any relevant equitable considerations. In no event shall any Selling Agent contribute in excess of the fees actually received by it pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
For purposes of this Agreement, each officer, director, shareholder, and employee or affiliate of any Selling Agent and each person, if any, who controls a Selling Agent (or any affiliate) within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights as a Selling Agent with respect to matters of indemnification by the Company hereunder.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned understands that Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc. (the “Representative”) proposes to enter into an Selling Agency Agreement (the “Selling Agency Agreement ”) with [ ]., a British Virgin Islands corporation (the “Company”), providing for the public offering (the “Public Offering”) of shares of common stock, par value $[ ] per share, of the Company (the “Shares”).
To induce the Representative to continue its efforts in connection with the Public Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representative, the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the effective date of the registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) relating to the Public Offering and ending one hundred and eighty (180) days after such date (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of our securities or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Shares owned or acquired on or prior to the closing date of the Public Offering (including any Shares acquired after the closing date of the Public Offering upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of such securities other than issuances of options to purchase Shares, pursuant to any stock option, stock bonus, or other stock plan or arrangement described in the prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement) (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”); (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Lock-Up Securities, in cash or otherwise; (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any Lock-Up Securities; or (4) publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement relating to any Lock-Up Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may transfer Lock-Up Securities without the prior written consent of the Representative in connection with (a) transactions relating to Lock-Up Securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Public Offering; provided that no filing under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with subsequent sales of Lock-Up Securities acquired in such open market transactions; (b) transfers of Lock-Up Securities as a bona fide gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or trust for the benefit of a family member (for purposes of this lock-up agreement, “family member” means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); (c) transfers of Lock-Up Securities to a charity or educational institution; or (d) if the undersigned, directly or indirectly, controls a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfers of Lock-Up Securities to any shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of similar equity interests in, the undersigned, as the case may be; provided that in the case of any transfer pursuant to the foregoing clauses (b), (c) or (d), (i) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (ii) each transferee shall sign and deliver to the Representative a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this lock-up agreement and (iii) no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act shall be required or shall be voluntarily made. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Lock-Up Securities except in compliance with this lock-up agreement.
22
If (i) during the last 17 days of the Lock-Up Period, the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs, or (ii) prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Company announces that it will release earnings results or becomes aware that material news or a material event will occur during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the Lock-Up Period, the restrictions imposed by this lock-up agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of such material news or material event, as applicable, unless the Representative waives, in writing, such extension.
The undersigned agrees that, prior to engaging in any transaction or taking any other action that is subject to the terms of this lock-up agreement during the period from the date hereof to and including the 34th day following the expiration of the initial Lock-Up Period, the undersigned will give notice thereof to the Company and will not consummate any such transaction or take any such action unless it has received written confirmation from the Company that the Lock-Up Period (as may have been extended pursuant to the previous paragraph) has expired.
If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, (i) the undersigned agrees that the foregoing restrictions shall be equally applicable to any issuer-directed or “friends and family” Shares that the undersigned may purchase in the Public Offering; (ii) the Representative agrees that, at least three (3) business days before the effective date of any release or waiver of the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of Lock-Up Securities, the Representative will notify the Company of the impending release or waiver; and (iii) the Company has agreed in the Selling Agency Agreement to announce the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two (2) business days before the effective date of the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted by the Representative hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective two (2) business days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (a) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer of Lock-Up Securities not for consideration and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this lock-up agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of such transfer.
No provision in this lock-up agreement shall be deemed to restrict or prohibit the exercise, exchange or conversion by the undersigned of any securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into Shares, as applicable; provided that the undersigned does not transfer the Shares acquired on such exercise, exchange or conversion during the Lock-Up Period, unless otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of this lock-up agreement. In addition, no provision herein shall be deemed to restrict or prohibit the entry into or modification of a so-called “10b5-1” plan at any time (other than the entry into or modification of such a plan in such a manner as to cause the sale of any Lock-Up Securities within the Lock-Up Period) or a sale or exchange of 100% of the Company’s outstanding Shares.
The undersigned understands that the Company and the Representative are relying upon this lock-up agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Public Offering. The undersigned further understands that this lock-up agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.
The undersigned understands that, if the Selling Agency Agreement is not executed by March 31, 2018, or if the Selling Agency Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Shares then this lock-up agreement shall be void and of no further force or effect.
Whether or not the Public Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Public Offering will only be made pursuant to an Selling Agency Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Representative.
