The minimum subscription is twenty-seven thousand five-hundred dollars ($27,500) or five thousand shares (5,000), provided, however, that subscriptions in lesser amounts may be accepted by the Company in its sole discretion.

The Company acknowledges that Joseph Gunnar and its affiliates are in the business of providing investment banking services (of all types contemplated by this agreement) to others.

Whether or not any Transaction is consummated or this Agreement is terminated or expires, the Company agrees, upon request, but no less frequently than monthly, to reimburse Joseph Gunnar promptly for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) incurred in connection with the preparation of documents or other matters relating to the Transaction, provided that Joseph Gunnar shall seek prior written approval from the Company for all expenses in aggregate in excess of $10,000.

ANNEX B

In further consideration of the agreements contained in the Agreement of which this Annex B is a part, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Joseph Gunnar, its affiliates, the respective members, directors, officers, partners, agents and employees of Joseph Gunnar, and any person controlling Joseph Gunnar or any of its affiliates (collectively, “Indemnified Persons”) from and against, and the Company agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability to the Company or its owners, parents, affiliates, security holders or creditors for, any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including actions or proceedings in respect thereof) (collectively, “Liabilities”) (A) related to or arising out of (i) the Company’s actions or failures to act (including statements or omissions made or information provided by the Company or its agents) in connection with the Transaction or (ii) actions or failures to act by an Indemnified Person with the Company’s consent or in reliance on the Company’s actions or failures to act in connection with the Transaction or (B) otherwise related to or arising out of the Agreement, Joseph Gunnar’s performance thereof or any other services Joseph Gunnar is asked to provide to the Company (in each case, including related activities prior to the date hereof), except that this clause (B) shall not apply to any Liabilities to the extent that they are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

If such indemnification is for any reason not available or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Person harmless, the Company agrees to contribute to the Liabilities involved in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and by Joseph Gunnar, on the other hand, in respect of the Agreement or, if such allocation is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect other equitable considerations such as the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of Joseph Gunnar on the other hand; provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Indemnified Persons shall not be responsible for expenses and Liabilities which in the aggregate are in excess of the amount of all fees actually received by Joseph Gunnar from the Company pursuant to the Agreement. Relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and Joseph Gunnar, on the other hand, in respect of the Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (i) the total value received or proposed to be received by the Indemnifying Parties in connection with any financing contemplated by the Agreement, bears to (ii) all fees actually received by or committed to Joseph Gunnar in connection with the Agreement.

Highly Confidential

The Company will not permit any settlement or compromise to include, or consent to the entry of any judgment that includes, a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, without such Indemnified Person’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld. If any Indemnified Person becomes involved in any capacity in any action, claim, suit, investigation or proceeding, actual or threatened, brought by or against any person, including stockholders of the Company, in connection with or as a result of the engagement or any matter referred to in the engagement the Company also agrees to reimburse such Indemnified Persons for their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for and responding to third party subpoenas or enforcing the engagement) as such expenses are incurred. The Company’s obligations pursuant to this Annex B shall inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of each Indemnified Person and are in addition to any rights that each Indemnified Person may have at common law or otherwise.

ANNEX C

BAD ACTOR DISQUALIFICATION QUESTIONNAIRE

Instructions: On September 23, 2013, the Commission issued a rule disqualifying securities offerings involving certain “felons and other ‘bad actors’” from reliance on Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act went into effect. The new rule triggers disclosure of bad actors and bad acts that occurred on or prior to September 23, 2013, and provides that bad actors/bad acts occurring after September 23, 2013 cause the disqualification from reliance on Rule 506. In order to confirm that the Company remains eligible to rely on Rule 506 and to comply with the related disclosure requirements, each director, executive officer, general partner or managing member of the company, or beneficial owner of 20% or more of the company’s outstanding voting equity securities, is required to complete and execute this Bad Actor Disqualification Questionnaire (this “Questionnaire”).

If you are a person described in clauses (a) or (b) above, you need to complete this Questionnaire. Please answer “Yes” or “No” with respect to each of the items set forth below. If you answer “Yes” to any of the following, please provide a detailed written description of all relevant facts and circumstances relating the applicable event, conviction, order, proceeding or action.

You hereby certify, represent and warrant that each of the above statements is true and correct and agree to immediately notify the company if such information becomes inaccurate in any respect. You further agree to immediately notify the company of any action, proceeding, investigation, event, action or development that could result in a “Yes” answer to any of the statements set forth above.
