THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made this 18th day of September, 2012 by and between SIMPLEPONS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with its principal place of business located at 220 Congress Park Drive, Suite 304, Delray Beach, FL 33445, RALPH LIEBER (“Lieber”), an individual with his residence at 141 Howard Terrace, Leona, NJ 07605 and HYO JUNG KIM (“Kim”), an individual with her residence at 141 Howard Terrace, Leona, NJ 07605.

 

R E C I T A L S

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated January 5, 2012, Lieber purchased 400,000 units of the Company’s securities (the “Units”) pursuant to the Company’s Confidential Term Sheet dated December 21, 2011 (the “Term Sheet”), with each Unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) and a common sock purchase warrant exercisable into one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share (the “Warrant”).

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated January 7, 2012, Kim purchased 50,000 Units pursuant to the Term Sheet.

 

WHEREAS, an issue has arisen as to the purchase price for the Units so purchased from the Company by each of Lieber and Kim.

 

WHEREAS, the parties desire to resolve any such issues as hereinafter provided.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

  1. Recitals. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by such reference. 
     
  2. Issuance of Additional Shares. Upon execution of this Agreement by all parties hereto, the Company will issue an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”) to Lieber and Kim in the amount set forth opposite their respect name below: 

  

Name  No. of Shares
 Ralph Lieber   1,602,000 
 Hyo Jung Kim   198,000 
    1,800,000 

 

 

  3. Investment Intent. Each of Lieber and Kim represent and warrant to the Company as follows: 
     
   

3.1 He/she is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and has such knowledge and experience in financial, investment and business matters that he/she is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Additional Shares and represents that he/she (i) has adequate means of providing for his/her current financial needs and possible personal contingencies, and has no need for liquidity of investment in the Company; (ii) can afford (a) to hold unregistered securities for an indefinite period of time and (b) sustain a complete loss of the entire amount of such securities; and (iii) has not made an overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable which is disproportionate so as to cause such overall commitment to become excessive.

 
   

3.2 The Additional Shares are being acquired solely for his/her account for personal investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution and he/she does not intend to dispose of all or any part of the Additional Shares except in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and understands that the Additional Shares are being issued pursuant to a specific exemption under the provisions of the Securities Act, which exemption depends, among other things, upon the compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.

 

   

"These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or any state securities laws and may not be sold or otherwise transferred or disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 and any applicable state securities laws, or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to counsel to the SimplePons, Inc. that an exemption from registration under the act and any applicable state securities laws is available."

In further consideration of the aforesaid and this Agreement, the Releasing Parties hereto do hereby agree that they will forever refrain from and desist from, directly or indirectly, instituting or asserting any claim against the other party for any losses, damages or expenses (known or unknown, existing or arising in the future) which in any way arise from or pertain to the aforesaid facts and circumstances.

  6.

Waiver. Unless agreed in writing, the failure of either party, at any time, to require performance by the other of any provisions hereunder shall not affect its right thereafter to enforce the same, nor shall a waiver by either party of any breach of any provision hereof be taken or held to be a waiver of any other preceding or succeeding breach of any term or provision of this Agreement. No extension of time for the performance of any obligation or act shall be deemed to be an extension of time for the performance of any other obligation or act hereunder.
