(the “Exchange Shares”) pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement.

bears to the number of shares of QLI Common Stock held by all the QLI
Shareholders as of the date of the Closing.

premises and for and in consideration of the foregoing recitals which are hereby
incorporated by reference, the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set

Dilution. EXSG shall neither effect, nor fix any record date with
