GLOBALINK and ONEWORLD understand and agree that the consummation of
the Contemplated Transactions, including the issuance of the GLOBALINK
Common Stock and cash payment to ONEWORLD Stockholder in exchange for
the ONEWORLD Common Stock as contemplated herein, constitutes the offer
and sale of securities under the Securities Act and applicable state
statutes. GLOBALINK and ONEWORLD agree that such transactions shall be
consummated in reliance on exemptions from the registration and
prospectus delivery requirements of such statutes, which depend, among
other items, on the circumstances under which such securities are
acquired.
(a) In order to provide documentation for reliance upon the
exemptions from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements
for such transactions, each stockholder of ONEWORLD shall execute and
deliver to GLOBALINK a Suitability Letter and an Investment
Representation Letter in substantially the same form as that attached
hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit B, respectively.
(b) In connection with the Contemplated Transactions, GLOBALINK
and ONEWORLD shall each file, with the assistance of the other party
and their respective legal counsel, such notices, applications,
reports, or other instruments as may be deemed by them to be necessary
or appropriate in an effort to document reliance on such exemptions,
and the appropriate regulatory authority in the states where the
stockholders of ONEWORLD reside unless an exemption requiring no filing
is available in such jurisdiction, all to the extent and in the manner
as may be deemed by such party to be appropriate.
(c) In order to more fully document reliance on the exemptions as
provided herein, ONEWORLD, the ONEWORLD Stockholder, and GLOBALINK
shall execute and deliver to the other party, at or prior to the
Closing, such further letters of representation, acknowledgment,
suitability, or the like as ONEWORLD or GLOBALINK and their respective
counsel may reasonably request in connection with reliance on
exemptions from registration under such securities laws.
(d) The ONEWORLD Stockholder acknowledges that the basis for
relying on exemptions from registration or qualifications are factual,
depending on the conduct of the various parties, and that no legal
opinion or other assurance will be required or given to the effect that
the Contemplated Transactions are in fact exempt from registration or
qualification.
18
Section 4.08 Sales of Securities Under Rule 144, If Applicable.
(a) GLOBALINK will use its best efforts to at all times satisfy
the current public information requirements of Rule 144 promulgated
under the Securities Act so that its stockholders can sell restricted
securities that have been held for one (1) year or more or such other
restricted period as required by Rule 144 as it is from time to time
amended.
(b) Upon being informed in writing by any person holding
restricted stock of GLOBALINK that such person intends to sell any
shares under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (including
any rule adopted in substitution or replacement thereof), GLOBALINK
will certify in writing to such person that it is compliance with Rule
144 current public information requirement to enable such person to
sell such person's restricted stock under Rule 144, as may be
applicable under the circumstances.
(c) If any certificate representing any such restricted stock is
presented to GLOBALINK's transfer agent for registration or transfer in
connection with any sales theretofore made under Rule 144, provided
such certificate is duly endorsed for transfer by the appropriate
person(s) or accompanied by a separate stock power duly executed by the
appropriate person(s), in each case with reasonable assurances that
such endorsements are genuine and effective and is accompanied by a
legal opinion that such transfer has complied with the requirements of
Rule 144, as the case may be, GLOBALINK will promptly instruct its
transfer agent to register such transfer and to issue one or more new
certificates representing such shares to the transferee and, if
appropriate under the provisions of Rule 144, as the case may be, free
of any stop transfer order or restrictive legend.
(d) This Section 4.08 shall survive the closing of this Agreement
for a period of two (2) years.

following conditions:
(a) A person (herein called the "proposing transferor") desiring to

called the "transfer notice") to the Company that he desires to
transfer those shares. The transfer notice shall specify the price
which shall be expressed in lawful money of Canada and the terms of
payment upon which the proposing transferor is prepared to transfer
those shares and shall constitute the Company his agent for the sale
thereof to any member or members of the Company at the price and upon
the terms of payment so specified. The transfer notice shall also
state whether the proposing transferor has had an offer to purchase
those shares or any of them from or proposes to sell those shares or
any of them to any particular person or persons who are not members and
if so, the names and addresses of those persons shall be specified in
the transfer notice. The transfer notice shall constitute an offer by
the proposing transferor to the other members of the Company holding
shares in the class or classes included in the transfer notice and
shall not be revocable except with the sanction of the directors. If
the transfer notice pertains to shares of more than one class, then the
price and terms of payment for each class of shares shall be stated
separately in the transfer notice.
(b) The directors shall forthwith upon receipt of the transfer notice
transmit a copy of it to each member, other than the proposing
transferor, holding shares of the class or classes set forth in the
transfer notice and request that member to state in writing within 28
days from the date of the transfer notice whether he is willing to
purchase any of the shares offered in the transfer notice and if so,
the maximum number he is willing to purchase. A member shall only be
entitled to purchase shares of the class or classes of shares held by
him.
(c) Upon the expiration of the 28 day notice period provided in Article
22.2(b) if the directors shall have received from the members entitled
to receive the transfer notice sufficient acceptances to purchase all
the shares offered in the transfer notice, the directors shall
thereupon apportion those shares among the members so accepting pro
rata in proportion to the number of shares held by each of them
respectively and in the case of more than one class of shares, then pro
rata in respect of each class. If the directors shall not have
received sufficient acceptances to purchase all the shares offered in
the transfer notice they may , but only with the consent of the
proposing transferor who shall not be obliged to sell in the aggregate
less than all the shares offered in the transfer notice, apportion the
shares offered in the transfer notice among the members accepting pro
rata in proportion to the number of shares held by each of them
respectively but only up to the number of shares accepted by each of
them respectively. After an apportionment has been so made and upon
payment of the price for the shares apportioned, the proposing
transferor shall be bound to transfer those shares in accordance with
that apportionment and if he fails to do so the Company shall cause the
name of the purchasing members to be entered in the register of members
as the holders of those shares and shall cancel the share certificates
representing those shares whether they have been produced to the
Company or not. Payment to the Company of the purchase price shall be
sufficient payment by the purchasing member and entry of the transfer
in the register of members shall be conclusive evidence of the validity
of the transfer.
(d) The proposing transferor shall be at liberty for a period of 90
days after the expiration of the 28 day period provided in Article
22.2(b) to transfer to any person those shares offered in the transfer
notice which have not been apportioned to a member pursuant to Article
22.2(c, provided that he shall not sell any of them at a price less
than that specified in the transfer notice or on terms more favourable
to a purchaser than those specified in the transfer notice.
(e) The provisions as to transfer of shares contained in paragraphs
(a), (b) (c) and (d) of this Article 22.2 hall not apply:
(i) If before the proposed transfer of shares is made, consents
thereto are obtained from members holding all the issued shares of the
class of shares to be transferred or, where the shares to be
transferred comprise more than one class of shares, if consents thereto
are obtained from members of each class holding all the issued shares
of the class to be transferred; or
(ii) to a transfer of shares for the purpose of effecting the
appointment of a new trustee for the owner thereof if the Board is
satisfied that the transfer is for that purpose.

matters that they are capable of evaluating the Company and the

Exhibit B
INVESTMENT LETTER
GLOBALINK, LTD.
Re: Purchase of shares of Common Stock of Globalink, Ltd.
Gentlemen:
In connection with the acquisition by the undersigned of shares of
Common Stock of Globalink, Ltd. (the "Securities"), the undersigned
represents that the Securities are being acquired without a view to, or
for, resale in connection with any distribution of such Securities or
any interest therein without registration or other compliance under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and that the
undersigned has no direct or indirect participation in any such
undertaking or in the underwriting of such an undertaking.
The undersigned understands that the Securities have not been
registered, but are being acquired by reason of a specific exemption
under the Securities Act as well as under certain state statutes for
transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering and that
any disposition of the subject Securities may, under certain
circumstances, be inconsistent with this exemption and may make the
undersigned an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act.
It is understood that the definition of an "underwriter" focuses on the
concept of "distribution" and that any subsequent disposition of the
subject Securities can only be effected in transactions which are not
considered distributions. Generally, the term "distribution" is
considered synonymous with "public offering" or any other offer or sale
involving general solicitation or general advertising. Under present
law, in determining whether a distribution occurs when securities are
sold into the public market, under certain circumstances one must
consider the availability of public information regarding the issuer, a
holding period for the securities sufficient to assure that the persons
desiring to sell the securities without registration first bear the
economic risk of their investment, and a limitation on the number of
securities which the stockholder is permitted to sell and on the manner
of sale, thereby reducing the potential impact of the sale on the
trading markets. These criteria are set forth specifically in rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"). After one (1) year
from the date the Securities are fully paid for and the subscription is
accepted by the issuer, all as calculated in accordance with Rule
144(d), sales of the Securities in reliance on Rule 144 can only be
made in limited amounts in accordance with the terms and conditions of
that rule. After two (2) years from the date the Securities are fully
paid for, as calculated in accordance with Rule 144(d), it can
generally be sold without meeting these conditions provided the holder
is not (and has not been for the preceding three (3) months) an
affiliate of the issuer.
The undersigned acknowledges that the Securities must be held and may
not be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of for value unless it
is subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption
from such registration is available; the issuer is under no obligation
to register the Securities under the Securities Act or under section 12
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except as may be
expressly agreed to by it in writing; if Rule 144 is available, and no
assurance is given that it will be, initially only routine sales of

such Securities in limited amounts can be made in reliance on Rule 144
in accordance with the terms and conditions of that rule; the issuer is
under no obligation to the undersigned to make Rule 144 available,
except as may be expressly agreed to by it in writing; in the event
Rule 144 is not available, compliance with regulation A promulgated
under the Securities Act or some other exemption may be required before
the undersigned can sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of such
Securities without registration under the Securities Act; the issuer's
registrar and transfer agent will maintain a stop transfer order
against the registration of transfer of the Securities; and the
certificate representing the convertible promissory notes and warrants
composing the Securities will bear a legend in substantially the
following form so restricting the sale of such Securities.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"),
AND ARE "RESTRICTED SECURITIES" WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144
PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN
ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED WITHOUT
COMPLYING WITH RULE 144 IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION OR
OTHER COMPLIANCE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.
The issuer may refuse to register transfer of the Securities in the
absence of compliance with Rule 144 unless the undersigned furnishes
the issuer with a "no-action" or interpretative letter from the
Securities and Exchange Commission or an opinion of counsel reasonably
acceptable to the issuer stating that the transfer is proper; further,
unless such letter or opinion states that the Securities are free of
any restrictions under the Securities Act, the issuer may refuse to
transfer the Securities to any transferee who does not furnish in
writing to the issuer the same representations and agree to the same
conditions with respect to such Securities as are set forth herein.
The issuer may also refuse to transfer the Securities if any
circumstances are present reasonably indicating that the transferee's
representations are not accurate.
Very truly yours,
Dated: Globalink, Ltd.
