WHEREAS, the Holder desires to tender the Notes for cancellation, including having (i) the Note Principal owed to Holder by the Company exchanged for shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and (ii) the Note Interest waived and deemed fully satisfied, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;
WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue the Holder shares of the Company’s Common Stock in exchange for the Holder tendering the Notes for cancellation;
WHEREAS, even though the Conversion Price of the Notes is currently at $0.00005 per share, the Holder agrees to accept the higher effective conversion price stated herein of $0.0002 per share, to help reduce dilution to the Company; and

AGREEMENT
1. EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES:
a) On the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company agrees to issue [Share amount] shares of its common stock (post-reverse stock split referenced in Section 2 below) (the “Shares”) at a per-share purchase price of $0.02 per share, in exchange for the Holder agreeing to cancel the Notes, including the Note Principal being considered fully satisfied and the Note Interest being waived in its entirety. The Purchase Price will be paid by the Holder to the Company through a Notice of Debt Satisfaction in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, evidencing the satisfaction of the Note Principal in exchange for the Shares and stating that the Holder is forever waiving the Note Interest.

2. CLOSING AND DELIVERY:
a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the consummation of the exchange of the Principal Amount under the Notes for the Shares (the “Closing”) shall occur automatically upon the Company completing an estimated 1-for-100 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock (the “Closing Date”).
b) In advance of the Closing:
(i) The Company and the Holder shall execute this Agreement. Subsequent to the Closing, at a time chosen by the Company in its sole discretion, the Company will issue a stock certificate to the Holder to evidence the Shares.
(ii) The Holder shall deliver to the Company the signed Notice of Debt Satisfaction.
(iii) The exchange of the Shares for the cancellation of the Notes will be effective automatically upon the effectiveness of the above-referenced reverse stock split.
3. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS BY HOLDER: The Holder hereby represents, warrants and agrees as follows:
a) Purchase for Own Account. Holder represents that he is acquiring the Shares solely for his own account and beneficial interest for investment and not for sale or with a view to distribution of the Shares or any part thereof, has no present intention of selling (in connection with a distribution or otherwise), granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same, and does not presently have reason to anticipate a change in such intention.
b) Ability to Bear Economic Risk. Holder acknowledges that an investment in the Shares involves a high degree of risk, and represents that he is able, without materially impairing his financial condition, to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of his investment.
c) Access to Information. The Holder acknowledges that the Holder has been furnished with such financial and other information concerning the Company, the directors and officers of the Company, and the business and proposed business of the Company as the Holder considers necessary in connection with the Holder’s investment in the Shares. As a result, the Holder is thoroughly familiar with the proposed business, operations, properties and financial condition of the Company and has discussed with officers of the Company any questions the Holder may have had with respect thereto. The Holder understands:
| Page 2 of 8 |
(i) The risks involved in this investment, including the speculative nature of the investment;
(ii) The financial hazards involved in this investment, including the risk of losing the Holder’s entire investment;
(iii) The lack of liquidity and restrictions on transfers of the Shares; and
(iv) The tax consequences of this investment.
The Holder has consulted with the Holder’s own legal, accounting, tax, investment and other advisers with respect to the tax treatment of an investment by the Holder in the Shares and the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares.
d) Shares Part of Private Placement. The Holder has been advised that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or qualified under the securities law of any state, on the ground, among others, that no distribution or public offering of the Shares is to be effected and the Shares will be issued by the Company in connection with a transaction that does not involve any public offering within the meaning of section 4(a)(2) of the Act and/or Regulation D as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Act, and under any applicable state blue sky authority. The Holder understands that the Company is relying in part on the Holder’s representations as set forth herein for purposes of claiming such exemptions and that the basis for such exemptions may not be present if, notwithstanding the Holder’s representations, the Holder has in mind merely acquiring the Shares for resale on the occurrence or nonoccurrence of some predetermined event. The Holder has no such intention.
e) Further Limitations on Disposition. Holder further acknowledges that the Shares are restricted securities under Rule 144 of the Act, and, therefore, if the Company, in its sole discretion, chooses to issue any certificates reflecting the ownership interest in the Shares, those certificates will contain a restrictive legend substantially similar to the following:
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”). THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.
| Page 3 of 8 |
THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF A LOCK-UP PROVISION IN THAT CERTAIN SECURITIES EXCHANGE AND COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR ASSIGNED OTHER THAN AS PERMITTED THEREIN, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.
Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, Holder further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Shares, unless and until:
(i) There is then in effect a Registration Statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such Registration Statement; or
(ii) Holder shall have obtained the consent of the Company and notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by the Company, Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration under the Act or any applicable state securities laws.
Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by such Holder to a partner (or retired partner) of Holder, or transfers by gift, will or intestate succession to any spouse or lineal descendants or ancestors, if all transferees agree in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if they were Holders hereunder as long as the consent of the Company is obtained.
f) Accredited Investor Status. The Holder is an accredited investor.
g) Holder Authorization. The Holder, if not an individual, is empowered and duly authorized to enter into this Agreement under any governing document, partnership agreement, trust instrument, pension plan, charter, certificate of incorporation, bylaw provision or the like; this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Holder enforceable against the Holder in accordance with its terms; and the person signing this Agreement on behalf of the Holder is empowered and duly authorized to do so by the governing document or trust instrument, pension plan, charter, certificate of incorporation, bylaw provision, board of directors or stockholder resolution, or the like.
| Page 4 of 8 |
h) No Backup Withholding. The Social Security Number or taxpayer identification shown in this Agreement is correct, and the Holder is not subject to backup withholding because (i) the Holder has not been notified that he or she is subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest and dividends or (ii) the Internal Revenue Service has notified the Holder that he or she is no longer subject to backup withholding.
i) Lockup of Shares. For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the twenty four (24) month anniversary thereof (the “Lockup Period”), Holder will not directly or indirectly, (i) offer, sell, offer to sell, contract to sell, hedge, pledge, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or sell (or announce any offer, sale, offer of sale, contract of sale, hedge, pledge, sale of any option or contract to purchase, purchase of any option or contract of sale, grant of any option, right or warrant to purchase or other sale or disposition), or otherwise transfer or dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any person at any time in the future), any portion of the Shares (collectively the “Lock-Up Securities”), beneficially owned, within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, by such holder on the date hereof or hereafter acquired or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of any portion of the Lock-Up Securities, whether or not any such swap or transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of any of the Lock-Up Securities”.
