12.
If the Buyer justifiably withdraws from this Agreement in accordance with Art. XII (1) to (3) hereof and the Seller is obliged to refund to the Buyer any payments made under this Agreement (particularly installments / advances on the Purchase Price pursuant to Art. III hereof), the Seller shall have the right to set off the amount of CZK 17,500,000.00 (in words: seventeen million five hundred thousand Czech crowns), which represents a lump-sum compensation for contractual penalties, damages, default interests and any other costs incurred by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement by November 30, 2009. In that case, the Parties have agreed (also for the purpose of settlement of the Seller’s claims against the Buyer arising from the Buyer’s breach of this Agreement during the period to June 30, 2009) on the manner of payment of the parts of the Purchase Price in the amount deposited in the Escrow Account or, as the case may be, on the manner of settlement of the possible claim of the Buyer for refund of the advances (or individual installments) on the Purchase Price pursuant to Art. III hereof, as follows:

 
a)
the advance or, as the case may be, the first installment on the Purchase Price in the amount of CZK 4,000,000.00 (in words: four million Czech crowns) that has already been paid by the Buyer to the Seller prior to the execution hereof pursuant to Art.

The effects (legal consequences) of the acknowledgment are conditional on delivery of the Buyer’s notice of withdrawal from this Agreement pursuant to Art. XII (1) to (3);

 
b)
any other performance based on this Agreement (especially the installments/advances on the Purchase Price pursuant to Art. III. hereof) shall be, after set-off of the amount mentioned in Art. XII (12) in the amount of CZK 17,500,000.00 (in words: seventeen million five hundred thousand Czech crowns), which represents a lump-sum compensation for contractual penalties, damages, default interests and all costs incurred by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement by November 30, 2009, returned to the Buyer from the Escrow Account;

 
c)
in the event that the funds in the Escrow Account are not sufficient for a refund to the Buyer (particularly after release of the amounts pursuant to Art. III (2) (ii) and Art. III (7) hereof), and such insufficiency gives rise to the Seller’s obligation to return the performance (payment) directly from the Seller’s own funds, the Seller shall be entitled to pay this amount to the Buyer in six equal monthly installments, of which the first shall be payable on 25th day of the month following after the delivery of the Buyer’s notice of withdrawal from this Agreement in accordance with paragraphs 1 to 3 of Art. XII.

This shall in no way prejudice the Buyer’s claims that arise out of this Agreement in the future.

Amendment No. 3 to the Purchase Agreement of November 25, 2008
Milan Gottwald / SENDIO s.r.o.
   
The claim set out in this subparagraph (ii) shall be payable upon delivery of the notice of withdrawal and shall be primarily settled from the funds in the Escrow Account and, only if these funds are insufficient, from the funds of the Buyer.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties have explicitly agreed that, in the event of the Seller’s withdrawal from this Agreement pursuant to Art. XIII (1) (ii), the Seller’s claim pursuant to Art. XIII (1) (ii) shall first be set-off against any potential Buyer’s claim for refund of the advances (or individual installments) on the Purchase Price pursuant to Art. III hereof. Any remaining part of the Purchase Price deposited in the Escrow Account shall thus be refunded to the Buyer only after the set-off of the Seller’s claims pursuant to this Art. XIII (1) (ii). In the event of the Seller’s withdrawal, the Escrow Agent shall release these funds in accordance with the Escrow Agreement without delay to the credit of the Seller’s and/or Buyer’s account in accordance with the rules set out in Art. XIII (1). For the avoidance doubt, the Parties declare that, in the event that the funds in the Escrow Account are not sufficient for settlement of the Seller’s claims set out in this Art. XIII (1), the Seller shall be entitled to claim and enforce the unpaid part of these claims directly against the Buyer.

2.
If the Buyer fails to provide the Seller with collaboration that can be reasonably requested pursuant to Art. XI (2) and (3) hereof, the Seller shall be entitled to claim a contractual penalty against the Buyer in the amount of CZK 20,000.00 (in words: twenty thousand Czech crowns) for each day of delay following the date when the Buyer received the Seller’s request for the provision of this collaboration.
 
3.
The Parties have agreed that the contractual penalties shall be payable at the latest within 10 (ten) calendar days of delivery of the Seller’s request for payment of the contractual penalty to the Buyer. If the Buyer demonstrably refuses to accept the request for payment of a contractual penalty, it shall hold that the Seller’s request for payment of the contractual penalty was delivered to the Buyer on the date of the refusal.
 
4.
The Seller’s claims for indemnification against the Buyer hereunder shall also not arise if the total amount of damage or other harm incurred by the Seller as a consequence of breach of the relevant obligation hereunder by the Buyer, which the Seller would otherwise justifiably enforce against the Buyer, does not exceed in aggregate CZK 5,000,000.00 (in words:  five million Czech crowns).
 
5.

Amendment No. 3 to the Purchase Agreement of November 25, 2008
Milan Gottwald / SENDIO s.r.o.
   
2.
The Parties have agreed that, as of the date of effect of registration of the Buyer’s ownership title to the Real Estate in the Land Registry pursuant to Art. VIII (1) (iii) hereof, the New Lease Contract shall be terminated unless it has been terminated or otherwise expired previously. The claims of the Parties arisen on the basis of the New Lease Contract, namely the claims for payment of the contractual penalties, indemnification and default interest, as well as their obligation to maintain confidentiality, shall not expire as a consequence of such termination of the New Lease Contract in accordance with its Art. XVI (4) and shall not be otherwise prejudiced.

3.
Furthermore, the Parties have agreed that, in the period from July 1, 2013, inclusive (the latest day of termination of validity and effectiveness of the New Lease Contract) to the date of effect of registration of the Buyer’s ownership title to the Real Estate in the Land Registry, the use of the Real Estate shall be governed by this Agreement. A precondition for such use pursuant to the previous sentence shall be
 
 
(i)
due deposition of an amount of CZK 175,000,000.00 (in words: one hundred and seventy five million Czech crowns) in the Escrow Account (Art. VII. (1) (ii) of this Agreement) and simultaneously also
 
 
(ii)
due lodging of an application for registration of the Buyer’s ownership title to the Real Estate in the Land Registry, with all the requisites, which the Buyer shall demonstrate by submitting the relevant copy of the application to the Seller (Art. XI (1) hereof).

In this period, the Buyer shall be entitled to use the Real Estate to the same extent as the owner; however, it shall be obliged to secure the rights and justified interests of the Seller and to refrain from any steps that would infringe on and/or prejudice them, to the maximum possible extent that can be reasonably required. The Buyer’s entitlement to use the Real Estate pursuant to the previous sentence shall expire upon lapse of 30 (thirty) days from the date of legal force of the relevant decision on dismissal of the above-mentioned application for registration of the Buyer’s ownership title to the Real Estate in the Land Registry or other decision on termination of the proceedings on the application, if it is clear from the circumstances and related legal facts that the registration of the Buyer’s ownership title to the Real Estate in the Land Registry can no longer be successfully claimed for reasons on the Buyer’s part.

4.
The Seller shall not be entitled to carry out any construction, i.e. construction of new buildings or extensions to the existing buildings, within the Real Estate. Furthermore, the Seller agrees not to carry out any construction modifications that would interfere with the current condition of the Real Estate. Furthermore, without the Buyer’s prior written consent, the Seller shall not be entitled to establish any new easements; to lease further premises, areas, properties and buildings within the Real Estate to third parties; to extend the term (duration) of a lease or modify the lease agreements in any manner whatsoever; to donate or exchange the Real Estate or any part thereof; to encumber the Real Estate in any manner whatsoever, i.e. establish mortgage rights, pre-emption rights with in rem effects, etc.; the Buyer shall not refuse the consent without justification.

Milan Gottwald / SENDIO s.r.o.
   
5.
If the Seller withdraws from this Agreement pursuant to Art. XIII (1) hereof, the Parties explicitly agree, with a view to avoid any potential doubts, that the Seller shall be entitled to retain, in accordance with the Lease Contract and/or New Lease Contract, all improvements and additions to the Real Estate (as described in Art. VII (8) of the Lease Contract and in Art. VI (8) of the New Lease Contract, respectively) that were performed by the Buyer; the grounds (legal title) for this claim consist in indemnification (compensation) for damage that would be incurred by the Seller if he were forced to settle such improvements or other additions to the Real Estate vis-à-vis the Buyer, even if this occurred as a consequence of breach of the Buyer’s contractual obligations (the Buyer’s claim for settlement shall thus be set-off against the Seller’s claim for indemnification).

Amendment No. 3 to the Purchase Agreement of November 25, 2008
Milan Gottwald / SENDIO s.r.o.
 
8.
The Parties hereby agree on the possibility of changing the manner of payment of the individual installments on the Purchase Price as specified in Art. III (2) hereof, as regards identification of the account into which the relevant amount is to be paid. At the latest by June 15, 2013, the Parties may jointly determine, in the manner set out in Art. XV (7) hereof, that the Buyer shall not pay these individual installments on the Purchase Price into the Escrow Account kept by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, but rather into some other account kept by some other third party. Such a change shall be valid and effective subject to an agreement concluded between the Parties and the relevant third party stipulating the obligation of the third party to accept the relevant amounts of the individual installments on the Purchase Price into escrow and to release them to the Seller and/or the Buyer under the same or similar terms and conditions as the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement or pursuant to this Agreement, as appropriate. If such a change is valid and effective, it shall hold that the competence of the Escrow Agent agreed herein or in the Escrow Agreement, as appropriate (but only to the extent concerning acceptance of the relevant amounts of the individual installments on the Purchase Price into escrow and their subsequent release and to the extent of the acts of the Escrow Agent pursuant Art. VII and VIII hereof) shall be performed by the relevant third party (unless the agreement with the relevant third party stipulates otherwise); in that case, simultaneously, the account kept by the relevant third party for the purpose of payment of the relevant amounts of the individual installments on the Purchase Price into escrow and their subsequent release shall be considered to be the Escrow Account. If such a change is valid and effective, other provisions hereof shall be construed in accordance with this provision and also in accordance with the purpose of the change. Furthermore, the Parties have agreed that the relevant third party pursuant to this provision may consist only in a reliable financial institution with respect to which there are objective guarantees of due performance of payment obligations and other obligations decisive for fulfillment of the purpose of this provision; if the Parties fail to agree on the change within the above-specified deadline, but the Seller insists on the change, the Seller shall be entitled to select the relevant third party from the list that is attached to this Agreement as its Schedule No. 9, and the Buyer agrees to respect this selection and, to the extent that can be reasonably requested of the Buyer, allow the relevant change pursuant to this provision.

9.
The Seller shall be entitled, during the term of this Agreement, to offer and sell the Real Estate as a whole and/or its parts to any other potential buyers and to execute with them a purchase agreement and/or an agreement on a future purchase agreement. In that case, the Seller shall have the right to withdraw from this Agreement with effect as of the date of delivery of the Seller’s notice of withdrawal from this Agreement to the Buyer. In case of such withdrawal, the Seller shall be obliged to refund to the Buyer all advances on the Purchase price paid pursuant to Art. III hereof. The Seller is entitled to set off any potential outstanding contractual penalties pursuant to Art. XIII (1) (i) hereof against these advances on the Purchase Price. The Seller shall not be entitled to withdraw from this Agreement pursuant to this provision after the Buyer has paid into the Escrow Account an amount of at least CZK 90,000,000.00 (in words: ninety million Czech crowns).

10.
In the event that the Seller withdraws from this Agreement in the sense of Art. XIV (9) hereof, the Seller waives all his claims against the Buyer for payment of contractual penalties, compensation for all damage and all other costs incurred by the Seller in connection with this Agreement in the period before November 30, 2009, including their accessions. The effects (legal consequences) of this waiver are subject to withdrawal from this Agreement by the Seller pursuant to Art. XIV (9) hereof.

The Escrow Agent’s remuneration for establishing and keeping the Escrow Account pursuant to the Escrow Agreement shall be paid by each of the Parties in a 1:1 ratio; if the remuneration is paid to the Escrow Agent in the full amount only by one of the Parties pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the other Party agrees to reimburse the Party paying the remuneration, without undue delay, for the relevant part of the remuneration according to the mentioned ratio. The provisions of the preceding sentence shall apply analogously also in the case pursuant to Art. XIV (8) hereof. Furthermore, the Parties agree that the Buyer shall pay the Seller 50 % of the accrued interest, into an account communicated to the Buyer by the Seller to this end, without delay after the accrued interest that was credited monthly by the Escrow Agent to the escrow amount (as defined in Art. II (1) of the Escrow Agreement) is credited to the Buyer’s bank account pursuant to Art. II (5) of the Escrow Agreement, but no later than within five (5) business days from the date of crediting the relevant Buyer’s account with the accrued interest.

4.
Neither of the Parties shall be entitled to assign its rights and obligations following from this Agreement to any third party without the prior written consent of the other Party, unless such assignment is expressly permitted by this Agreement. This Agreement is and shall be binding also for the heirs and/or legal successors of the Parties, where each of the Parties agrees to perform any and all acts necessary to this end. In case of passage of the rights and obligations following from this Agreement on the basis of an act of any Party (including, but not limited to, a merger, transfer or contribution of a business or part thereof, transfer of assets or any other dispositions with assets), the Party, whose rights have thus been transferred, shall guarantee fulfillment of the devolved obligations. No provision hereof shall establish any rights of obligations of third parties that are not the Parties, unless expressly stipulated otherwise in this Agreement.

Amendment No. 3 to the Purchase Agreement of November 25, 2008
Milan Gottwald / SENDIO s.r.o.
   

  
The wording of the new consolidated version of the Purchase Agreement, i.e. its Preamble and Articles I. to XV., is provided above between the two horizontal lines.
 
As soon as possible, the Parties shall negotiate and execute with UniCredit Bank Czech Republic, a.s., with its registered office at: Prague 1, Na Příkopě 858/20, Postal Code 111 21, Id. No.: 649 48 242, an amendment to the Escrow Agreement dated November 25, 2008, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated February 23, 2010, on the basis of which the change in the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement introduced by the present Amendment will be reflected in the Escrow Agreement. Any and all fees and other costs related to execution of the said amendment to the Escrow Agreement shall be borne by the Buyer.
 
As of the date of the conclusion of this Amendment, the Buyer does not confirm validity of its representations and warranties made in Art. VI (1) of the Purchase Agreement upon conclusion of the Purchase Agreement or repeat the representations and warranties set out in the cited Article. This shall be done by the Buyer, in accordance with Art. VI (4) of the Purchase Agreement, only before the transfer of the Real Estate itself in accordance with Art. VIII (1) (i) of the Purchase Agreement. This Amendment contains the entire agreement of the Parties in respect of amendment to the Purchase Agreement. No other agreement, declaration or promise made by either Party that is not included herein shall be binding on the Parties in connection with the subject of this Amendment. This Amendment cancels and replaces – with the exception of the unprejudiced provisions of the Purchase Agreement as amended by its amendments – all previous contracts, agreements, declarations and promises made in respect of the subject hereof by any of the Parties prior to execution of this Amendment. Article headings are included for convenience of reference only and shall in no respect whatsoever serve for interpretation of the terms and provisions hereof.
 
This Amendment is drawn up and executed with authenticated signatures in 7 (seven) counterparts, where each of the Parties shall receive 1 (one) counterpart, 1 (one) counterpart shall be delivered without undue delay to the Escrow Agent in conformity with Recital D. in the Preamble to the Purchase Agreement and 4 (four) counterparts shall be attached to the relevant application for registration of the Buyer’s ownership title to the Real Estate in the Land Registry.
 
This Amendment enters into effect at the time when the Seller acquires the ownership title to 300,000 shares of stock of VU1 Corporation (the “Shares”). Until this condition precedent is fulfilled, the rights and obligations of the Parties concerning the transfer of the Real Estate shall be governed by the wording of the Purchase Agreement of November 25, 2008, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated March 18, 2009 and Amendment No. 2 of 2nd December, 2009.
 
Seller has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares.  In making its decision, Seller relied solely on its own independent investigations, and has obtained its own tax and other professional advice, and has not relied on any oral representations, warranties or information from the Buyer. Seller has reviewed Vu1 Corporation‘s public filings with the SEC, and Seller recognizes that there are substantial risks related to the Shares.  Seller is acquiring the Shares for its own account and for investment purposes only and has no present intention, agreement or arrangement for the distribution, transfer, assignment or resale of the Shares.  Seller has adequate means for providing for its current financial needs, has no need for liquidity with respect to the Shares and can bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares, and can withstand a complete loss of such investment.  Seller understands that the Shares have not been registered, and are considered “restricted securities,” under United States federal and state securities laws, that the Shares may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain circumstances, and that the Shares will bear a restrictive securities legend evidencing these restrictions.
