WHEREAS, as consideration under the Share Exchange Agreement, the Shareholder was issued an aggregate of _______ shares of Common Stock at the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement (the "Consideration Shares").
WHEREAS, as a condition of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Shareholder agreed to restrict the sale, assignment, transfer, encumbrance or other disposition of the Consideration Shares by the Shareholder as hereinafter provided.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the terms and conditions contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. LOCK UP OF SHARES; PERMITTED LEAK OUTS.
(a) The Shareholder hereby agrees that, the Shareholder will not during the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on twelfth (12th) month from the date the Company's shares are listed and posted for trading on NASDAQ (the "Lock Up Period") (i) offer, pledge, gift, donate, 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 Consideration Shares, or (ii) enter into any swap, option (including, without limitation, put or call options), short sale, future, forward or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Consideration Shares ((i) and (ii) being hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Lock Up").
(b) On the termination of the Lock Up Period, ________ Consideration Shares shall be released from the Lock Up.
(c) The Shareholder hereby authorizes the Company during the relevant Lock Up Period to cause any transfer agent for the Consideration Shares to decline to transfer, and to note stop transfer restrictions on the stock register and other records relating to the Consideration Shares subject to the Lock Up for which the Shareholder is the record holder and, in the case of Consideration Shares subject to this Agreement for which the Shareholder is the beneficial but not the record holder, agrees during the Lock Up Period to cause the record holder to cause the relevant transfer agent to decline to transfer, and to note stop transfer restrictions on the stock register and other records relating to the Consideration Shares subject to the Lock Up, if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Agreement.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the prior written consent of the Company the Shareholder may transfer (the "Permitted Transfer") Consideration Shares as a bona fide gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or trust for the benefit of a family member; provided that each transferee, donee or distributee of the Consideration Shares shall sign and deliver to the Company a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this letter contemporaneously with such transaction.
(e) Following the release of the Consideration Shares from the Lock Up, the Shareholder agrees to limit the resales of such Consideration Shares in the public market as follows:

(ii) any permitted resales by the Shareholder shall be at the then current bid price of the Common Stock.
3. TRANSFER; SUCCESSOR AND ASSIGNS. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the parties. As provided above, any Permitted Transfer shall require the transferee to execute a lock up agreement in accordance with the same terms set forth herein. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
4. COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS. In the event of a Permitted Transfer, as a condition to the Company agreeing to such Permitted Transfer, the Shareholder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the transfer is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and that the transfer otherwise complies with the terms of this Agreement.

7. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.

13. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. Any term of this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Company and the Shareholder. No delay or failure on the part of the Company in exercising any power or right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any power or right.
14. SEVERABILITY.
