(the “Principal

WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS,
certain investors, pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated December 2, 2010
(the “Buyers”), will be

for a total aggregate purchase price of up to $5,000,000 in a private placement
financing transaction (the “Financing Transaction”)
pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Closing Date”) by and among
the Company and the Buyers (the “Subscription
Agreement”);
WHEREAS,
as an inducement to the Buyers to enter into the Subscription Agreement, the
Principal Shareholder has agreed to place the Escrow Shares (as hereinafter
defined) into escrow for the benefit of the Buyers in the event the Company
fails to achieve the following financial performance thresholds for the 12-month
periods ended December 31, 2010 (“2010”) and December 31, 2011
(“2011”):
(a) In
2010, After-Tax Net Income (“ATNI”) as reported by the
Company in its audited financial statements for 2010 (the “2010 financial statements”)
equals or exceeds $21,000,000 (the “2010 Performance
Threshold”);
(b) In
2011, ATNI, as reported by the Company in its audited financial statements for
2011 (the “2011 financial
statements”) exceeds $25,000,000 (the “2011 Performance Threshold”);
and
(c) For
purposes of this agreement, ATNI means net income from operations after tax,
prior to deduction of non-cash items, determined in accordance with United
States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”), and any charges
relating to the transaction contemplated by this Make Good Agreement, the
Subscription Agreement, and other documents executed in connection with the
Financing Transaction (the “Transaction
Documents”).
WHEREAS,
the Company and the Principal Shareholder have requested that the
Escrow Agent hold the Escrow Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement and the Escrow Agent has agreed to act as escrow agent pursuant
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and mutual promises contained
herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and intending to be legally bound
hereby, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE
I
TERMS OF
THE ESCROW
1.1. The
parties hereby agree to establish an escrow account with the Escrow Agent
whereby the Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares as contemplated by this
Agreement.
1.2. Within
fifteen (15) days of the execution of this Agreement, the Principal Shareholder
shall deposit or cause to be deposited Two Million Eight-Three Thousand Three
Hundred Thirty-Three (2,083,333) shares of Common Stock with the Escrow Agent
(the “Escrow
Shares”).
1.3. The
Company will provide the Buyers with (i) the Company’s audited financial
statements for 2010, prepared in accordance with US GAAP, on or before March 31,
2011 and (ii) the Company’s audited financial statements for 2011, prepared in
accordance with US GAAP, on or before March 31, 2012, so as to allow the Buyers
the opportunity to evaluate whether the 2010 Performance Threshold and the 2011
Performance Threshold were attained. In the event that any Buyer receives the
financial information prior to its dissemination by the Company in either a
press release or in the Company’s SEC Documents, the Company shall issue a press
release announcing the information or file a Form 8-K within one trading day of
a request by the Buyer to make such information public.
1.4. The
parties hereby agree that the Escrow Shares shall be delivered to the Buyers as
set forth below:
If the Company fails to achieve the
2010 Performance Threshold or 2011 Performance Threshold for the relevant fiscal
periods, the Company shall instruct the Escrow Agent to deliver such number of
Escrow Shares to Buyer on a pro-rata basis, based on the following
formula:
Number of
Make-Good Shares = (A* B)
due to
investor A
|
where A
=
|
the
number of shares of Common Stock issued to the Buyer,
and
|
|
|
B
=
|
(the
target ATNI minus the actual applicable ATNI) / the target ATNI, as
calculated to four decimal places (or to two decimal places, if expressed
as a percentage)
|
2
For
example, if the shortfall for 2010 is 10.00% and the minimum Offering amount is
raised, with 416,667 shares of Common Stock issued to Buyers, then the total
number of Escrow Shares to be transferred for 2010 is 41,667, to be transferred
on a pro-rata basis to the Buyers.
1.5 The
parties hereby agree that in determining the 2010 Performance Threshold and the
2011 Performance Threshold, the parties shall not take into account
(and such amounts shall not be included in determining ATNI):
(i) the
offering and transactional costs associated with the Financing Transaction,
including without limitation, legal and audit costs, registration and filing
fees;
(ii) losses
the Company has suffered or reasonably calculated to have suffered as a result
of a force majeure event, which shall mean (i) acts of God (ii) outbreak of
hostilities, riots, civil disturbances, acts of terrorisms, (iii) the act of any
government or authority (including refusal or revocation of any license or
consent), (iv) fire, explosion, flood, or bad weather, (v) power failure,
failure of telecommunications lines, failure or breakdown of plant, machinery or
vehicles, (vi) default of suppliers or sub-contractors, (vii) theft, malicious
damage, strike, lock-out or industrial action of any kind and (vii) any cause or
circumstance whatsoever beyond the Company’s reasonable control;
(iii) any
compensation expense incurred by the Company in connection with the release of
any Escrow Shares to the Principal Shareholder;
(iv) the
effects of EITF 07-5; and
(v) the
costs and expense incurred by the Company in 2010 and incurred in 2011 in
establishing an employee stock option plan and granting stock options to its
employees thereunder.
1.7 If
the Company does not achieve either the 2010 Performance Threshold or the 2011
Performance Threshold, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts
to promptly cause the 2010 Escrow Shares or the 2011 Escrow Shares, as the case
may be, to be delivered to the Buyers, including causing its transfer agent
promptly to issue the certificates in the names of the Buyers and causing its
securities counsel to provide any written instruction required by the Escrow
Agent in a timely manner so that the issuances and delivery contemplated above
can be achieved within ten (10) business days after March 31, 2011 or March 31,
2012, as applicable. For the avoidance of any doubt, the Escrow Agent
shall not be responsible to procure written instructions from the Company to
transfer the 2009 Escrow Shares or the 2010 Escrow Shares to the
Buyers.
1.8 Upon
the written instructions of the Company, the Escrow Agent shall deliver the 2010
Escrow Shares and the 2011 Escrow Shares, as applicable, to each Buyer or the
Principal Shareholder, and shall be held harmless from any claim, loss or
expense regarding such delivery regardless of whether the other provisions of
this Make Good Securities Escrow Agreement are complied with or
met.
3
1.9 The
Escrow Agent shall upon the delivery of 2010 Escrow Shares and 2011 Escrow
Shares to the Buyers, but in no event no later than April 15, 2012, return to
the Principal Shareholder any Escrow Shares not required to be delivered to the
Buyers pursuant to the terms hereof.

II

between, the parties with respect to the Escrow Shares, and the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all prior understandings with respect to the Escrow
Shares. This Escrow Agreement is one of a series of agreements relating to the
Financing Transaction, and the terms hereof shall not relate to any aspect of

in writing or as otherwise expressly permitted herein.
3.6 Whenever

references to Articles are to articles of this Escrow Agreement.
3.7 The
parties hereto expressly agree that this Escrow Agreement shall be governed by,
interpreted under and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, without regard to conflicts of law principles that would
result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. Any

this Escrow Agreement shall only be brought in a state or Federal court sitting
in New York City, Borough of Manhattan.
3.8 The
Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder may be altered, amended, modified or revoked
only by a writing signed by the Company, the Principal Shareholder, and the
Escrow Agent.
3.9 The
Escrow Agent shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are
specifically set forth herein and may rely and shall be protected in relying or
refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably believed by the Escrow Agent
to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
parties. The Escrow Agent shall not be personally liable for any act the Escrow

absence of gross negligence, fraud and willful misconduct.

Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized to disregard any and all warnings
given by any of the parties hereto or by any other person or corporation,
excepting only orders or process of courts of law and is hereby expressly
authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any court. In
case the Escrow Agent obeys or complies with any such order, judgment or decree,

other person, firm or corporation by reason of such decree being subsequently
reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have been entered
without jurisdiction.
3.11 The

legal counsel for the Company and the Principal Shareholder from time to time,
notwithstanding its duties as the Escrow Agent hereunder.

Shares held by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent is authorized and
directed in the Escrow Agent’s sole discretion (1) to retain in the Escrow
Agent’s possession without liability to anyone all or any part of said documents
or the Escrow Shares until such disputes shall have been settled either by
mutual written agreement of the parties concerned or by a final order, decree or
judgment or a court of competent jurisdiction after the time for appeal has
expired and no appeal has been perfected, but the Escrow Agent shall be under no
duty whatsoever to institute or defend any such proceedings or (2) to deliver
the Escrow Shares and any other property and documents held by the Escrow Agent
hereunder to a state or Federal court having competent subject matter
jurisdiction and located in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, in
