AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Purchaser agree as follows:

1. Purchase and Sale of the Shares.

(a) Purchase and Sale. The Company hereby agrees to sell, in an amount to be hereinafter determined by the Company in its sole discretion, up to Three Million (3,000,000) shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the Purchaser and the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase from the Company the Shares made available by the Company for purchase by the Purchaser, subject to the terms and conditions herein contained.
