*As noted herein, as of the date hereof, it is the intention of the parties that there be outstanding on a fully-diluted, post-Share Exchange basis 5,000,000 shares of NLM Common Stock and that the Members would own an aggregate of 4,400,000 shares and stockholders and warrantholders of NLM would own 600,000 on a fully-diluted basis (585,627 shares of Common Stock and warrants to acquire 14,373 shares of Common Stock); based on 97,110,482 shares of NLM outstanding pre-Share Exchange on a fully-diluted basis (94,784,166 shares of Common Stock and warrants to acquire 2,326,316 shares of Common Stock), this would require and result in a Reverse Split at a ratio of 1-for-161.8508. The parties acknowledge that market conditions may dictate a Reverse Split ratio different than this (but in no event would any change result in any ownership percentage other than 88% of the shares of NLM Common Stock post-Share Exchange fully-diluted being owned by the Members and 12% of the shares of NLM post-Share Exchange fully-diluted being owned by the existing stockholders of NLM.
