On the Purchase Date, Purchaser will deliver the Aggregate Purchase Price to the Company and the Company will enter the Shares in Purchaser’s name as of such date in the books and records of the Company or, if applicable, a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company.

3. Future Transactions. The Company and Purchaser acknowledge that (i) the Company’s agreement to sell the Shares is based, in part, on the expectation that Purchaser will aid the Company in developing certain markets for the Company’s analytical services, and (ii) there may be future needs for investments or injections of additional capital by Purchaser to fund the Company’s business.

(a) Option to Purchase Additional Shares. In the event Purchaser elects to invest additional funds in the Company on or before the first anniversary of the Effective Date, in amounts and otherwise on terms acceptable to the Company’s Board of Directors, Purchaser, at its sole discretion, shall have the option to structure the transaction as a loan in an arm’s length transaction or as an additional purchase of common stock of the Company at a pre-money valuation for the Company of $2,500,000.

-1-

(b) Option to Repurchase the Restricted Shares. Upon the occurrence of any Repurchase Trigger Event (as defined in subsection (ii), below), and upon the Company’s subsequent, timely election to exercise this option, the Purchaser shall sell to the Company, and the Company shall repurchase from the Purchaser, all, but not less than all, of the Restricted Shares under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this subsection 3(b) (the “Repurchase Option”).

(i) The Company must give written notice to the Purchaser that the Company is proceeding to repurchase the Restricted Shares within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the Trigger Event that entitles the Company to exercise the Repurchase Option. The Company’s notice shall reference the Trigger Event that the Company is relying upon. The failure of the Company to exercise the Repurchase Option after the occurrence of a Trigger Event shall not prevent the Company from exercising the option upon the occurrence of a subsequent Trigger Event.

(ii) The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute a Repurchase Trigger Event:

(1) The failure of Purchaser to exercise commercially reasonable efforts during calendar year 2019 to facilitate discussions with potential clients for the Company’s services, specifically with regards to products outside the purview of those listed in RCW 69.50.010(bb)), that collectively have the potential to purchase at least One Million Dollars in services from the Company at prices and on terms of sale substantially similar to the prevailing market prices and conditions for similar services.

(2) The Company has received notice of any sanction or penalty as a result of an action or regulatory proceeding brought against Purchaser, or any of its officers or directors where such action or regulatory proceeding is directly related to such officers or directors activities on behalf of Purchaser, for violation of any rule of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).

(3) The Company has received notice that Purchaser, or any of its officers or directors who are not promptly terminated or removed, is subject to the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

(4) The Company has received notice that Purchaser willfully or recklessly misrepresented or omitted to state any material fact in the negotiation and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(iii) The purchase price per share of the Shares being repurchased by the Company shall be an amount equal the Purchaser’s original cost per share, as adjusted for any stock splits or similar events (the “Repurchase Price”). The Company shall pay the aggregate Repurchase Price to the Purchaser within thirty (30) days after the date of the written notice to the Purchaser required by subsection (i) above, either in cash, or by transferring to Purchaser a sufficient number of shares of the restricted common stock of Purchaser referred to in Section 2, above, or by any combination thereof. For this purpose, Purchaser’s common stock shall be valued at the per share price that is the greater of (x) the value assigned to Purchaser’s common stock at the Purchase Date, or (y) the value of such stock on the date when the repurchase is made. The shares being repurchased shall be delivered to the Company by the Purchaser at the same time as the delivery of the Repurchase Price to the Purchaser.

(iv) Until such time as the Company exercises this Repurchase Option, Purchaser (or any successor in interest) shall have all the rights of a shareholder (including voting and dividend rights) with respect to the Shares, including the Restricted Shares; subject, however, to the limitations on transfer identified in Section 4, below.

(v) The Company may assign its rights under the Repurchase Option at any time, whether or not such right is then exercisable, to one or more persons as may be selected by the Company. The exercise or non-exercise of this Repurchase Option following the occurrence of any Trigger Event shall not adversely affect the Company’s right to exercise this Repurchase Option with respect to any subsequent Trigger Event. This Repurchase Option will expire if it is not exercised by the Company prior to December 31, 2020.

(i) (c) Option to Force the Sale of the Restricted Shares. Upon the occurrence of any Forced Sale Trigger Event (as defined in subsection (ii), below), and upon the Purchaser’s subsequent, timely election to exercise this option, the Purchaser shall sell to the Company, and the Company shall repurchase from the Purchaser, all, but not less than all, of the Restricted Shares under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this subsection 3(c) (the “Forced Sale Option”). The Purchaser must give written notice to the Company that the Purchaser is proceeding to force the repurchase of the Restricted Shares within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the Forced Sale Trigger Event that entitles the Purchaser to exercise the Forced Sale Option. The Purchaser’s notice shall reference the Forced Sale Trigger Event that the Purchaser is relying upon. The failure of the Purchaser to exercise the Forced Sale Option after the occurrence of a Forced Sale Trigger Event shall not prevent the Purchaser from exercising the option upon the occurrence of a subsequent Forced Sale Trigger Event.

(ii) The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute a Forced Sale Trigger Event:

(1) As a result of the Company’s, or any of its officers or directors actions, an action or regulatory proceeding is brought against the Purchaser, or any of its officers or directors and , for violation of any rule of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), and such action or regulatory proceeding is not dismissed or settled within sixty days after its commencement and without any sanction or penalty against the Purchaser, or any of its officers or directors.

(iv) Until such time as the Purchaser exercises this Forced Sale Option, Purchaser (or any successor in interest) shall have all the rights of a shareholder (including voting and dividend rights) with respect to the Shares, including the Restricted Shares; subject, however, to the limitations on transfer identified in Section 4, below.\

4. Limitations on Transfer. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares purchased under this Agreement are subject to (i) the provisions of the this Agreement and the Related Agreements, (ii) terms and conditions that apply to the Company’s Common Stock, as set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, as may be in effect at the time of any proposed transfer (the “Bylaw Provisions”), and (iii) any other limitation or restriction on transfer created by applicable laws.

(b) Termination of Rights. The transfer restrictions set forth herein, shall terminate upon (i) the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement relating solely to the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to a business combination or an employee incentive or benefit plan) or (ii) any transfer or conversion of Shares made pursuant to a statutory merger or statutory consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation or corporations if the common stock of the surviving corporation or any direct or indirect parent corporation thereof is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

(c) Lock-Up Agreement.

5. Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the purchase of the Shares, Purchaser represents to the Company the following:

(a) Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Purchaser is purchasing the Shares for investment for Purchaser’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or under any applicable provision of state law. Purchaser does not have any present intention to transfer the Shares to any other person or entity and shall not transfer the Shares to any other person or entity for one year from the Effective Date without the consent of the Company’s Board of Directors.

(b) Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein.

(c) Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the securities.

(d) Purchaser is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Purchaser understands that the Company provides no assurances as to whether he or she will be able to resell any or all of the Shares pursuant to Rule 144, which rule requires, among other things, that the Company be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the Shares has held the Shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain circumstances, that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding this Section 4(d), Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set forth in Section 4(e) below.

(e) Purchaser further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

(f) Purchaser represents that Purchaser is not subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act. Purchaser also agrees to notify the Company if Purchaser becomes subject to such disqualifications after the date hereof.

(g) Purchaser understands that Purchaser may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Purchaser’s purchase or disposition of the Shares. Purchaser represents that Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants Purchaser deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Purchaser is not relying on the Company for any tax advice.
