FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS


This Current Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”).  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report primarily on our current expectations about future events and trends that we believe may affect our current and proposed business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, including those described under the caption “Risk Factors” of Item 1A of our 10-K Transition Report for period from September 30, 2018, to the year ended December 31, 2018, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) on or about June 29, 2018, and which is incorporated herein by reference and can be accessed by Hyperlink in Item 9.01 below (the “ 10-K Transition Report ”). Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements used herein. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Current Report will prove to be accurate, and therefore prospective investors are encouraged not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. You should read this Current Report completely, and it should be read and considered with other reports or registration statements filed by us with the SEC. Other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, even though our situation may change in the future.


EXPLANATORY NOTES


Except as otherwise indicated by context, references to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” and words of similar import refer to “ KonaTel, Inc. ,” a Delaware corporation, formerly named Dala Petroleum Corp., which is the Registrant, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, KonaTel, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ KonaTel Nevada ”), and Apeiron Systems, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ Apeiron ”), along with IM Telecom, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company (“ IM Telecom ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary, the acquisition of which is reported in this Current Report.


CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS


We have a limited public float of our outstanding common stock, and there has been no established trading market in our common stock during the past five years.  See the caption “ Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities ” of Part II, Item 5, of our 10-K Transition Report. These factors may result in uncertainty and volatility in the trading price of our common stock that may not have any relation to our current or future prospects.  On or about September 29, 2017, our Application for continued quotations of our common stock on the OTC Markets Group OTCQB Tier (respectively, the “ OTC Markets ” and the “ OTCQB Tier ”) was not approved because of our limited public float and the high concentration of the ownership of our common stock in one entity (M2 Equity Partners, LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company [“ M2 ”], which then owned 12,100,000 shares of our 13,692,286 outstanding shares or approximately 88% of our outstanding securities). These shares were distributed to M2’s 14 members, who were “accredited investors,” pro rata, in accordance with their respective membership interests, on April 9, 2018, which decreased the concentration of ownership of our outstanding shares in one entity. On December 18, 2017, we completed our “ KonaTel Nevada Merger ”; and on December 31, 2018, we completed our “ Apeiron Merger ” (see each of the applicable 8-K Current Reports in Item 9.01 below, which are incorporated herein by reference and which can be accessed by Hyperlink to the SEC Edgar Archives).  As a result of these mergers and like respectively executed and delivered Shareholder Voting Agreements that were a condition to the closing of each of these mergers (see the applicable 8-K Current Reports in Item 9.01 for access to these Shareholder Voting Agreements), D. Sean McEwen, our Chairman, CEO, President and a director, beneficially owns 33,848,750 shares of our outstanding securities, consisting of: (i) 13,500,000 shares of direct ownership and 936,250 shares of direct ownership underlying personally owned vested stock options; (ii) 12,100,000 shares of indirect ownership of shares owned by others (the



2





M2 members); (iii) 312,500 shares of indirect ownership of shares underlying vested stock options owned by others (the two founding members of M2 [Matthew Atkinson, M2’s manager, co-founder and our Secretary, and Mark Savage, M2’s other co-founder and one of our directors]); and (iv) 7,000,000 shares of indirect ownership of shares owned by the Apeiron shareholders.  The respective Shareholder Voting Agreements have two (2) year terms, respectively ending December 17, 2019 (M2 member shares); and December 31, 2020 (Apeiron shareholders shares).  Based upon the present number of our outstanding shares of common stock of 43,066,036 shares (which includes 2,373,750 shares underlying vested stock options that can be exercised within 60 days of the date of the filing of this Current Report, Mr. McEwen is currently the beneficial owner of approximately 78.6% of our outstanding shares.  See the Schedule 13DA-1 of Mr. McEwen incorporated herein by reference in Item 9.01 hereof.  Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Markets OTC Pink Tier (the “ OTC Pink Tier ”) under the trading symbol “ KTEL .” Previously filed “Cautionary Statements” included at the forepart of the Company’s 8-K Current Report filings with the SEC respectively made on December 31, 2018, and January 14, 2019, inadvertently omitted to disclose 800,000 options under that heading that had vested on December 31, 2018.  These omissions resulted in a very minor overstatement of the percentage of Mr. McEwen’s beneficial ownership of our outstanding shares in those two reports, which has been corrected in this Current Report.

Item 1.01 Entry into Definitive Material Agreement.


We entered into an Agreement for the Purchase and Sale of Membership Interest dated as of February 5, 2018 (the “ IM Telecom PSMI ”), with the transaction documents being deposited in escrow on February 7, 2018, respecting the acquisition of 100% of the membership interest in IM Telecom, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company (“ IM Telecom ”), from its sole owner, Trevan Morrow (“ Mr. Morrow ”).  The principal asset of IM Telecom is a “Lifeline Program” license (a Federal Communications Commission [“ FCC ”] approved Compliance Plan), the transfer of ownership of which required prior approval of the FCC, which was granted and publicly announced by the FCC on October 23, 2018.  The IM Telecom PSMI initially contemplated approval of this transfer by April 30, 2018; however, the parties extended the approval date by a minor amendment to the IM Telecom PSMI. Effective December 31, 2018, though executed and delivered on January 3, 2019, the parties executed a 2 nd Amended IM Telecom PSMI under which, commencing January 1, 2019, the Company began the process of transitioning the main operational functions of IM Telecom from Tulsa, Oklahoma, to our executive offices in Dallas, Texas, including transitioning of accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, management of IM Telecom’s sales organization, along with sales reporting and collection/remittance of customer data to Mr. Morrow for his final approval, pending a closing date of January 31, 2019.  The IM Telecom PSMI was closed on January 31, 2019.  The purchase price of the 100% membership interest was nominal, or $100; however, IM Telecom initially had approximately $447,000 in liabilities, which have been compromised for approximately $432,472.68, which is the “ Maximum Allowable IM Telecom Debt ” for which we were for responsible under the IM Telecom PSMI, and all other indebtedness, if any, remains the responsibility of Mr. Morrow, thereunder.  As of January 31, 2019, we have paid $404,472.68 of these liabilities, together with an additional sum of $2,500 for accounting costs of Mr. Morrow incurred as a result of the extension of the closing until January 31, 2019; and we will pay the $28,000 balance on February 28, 2019.  Additionally, as of the closing, we have paid approximately $21,802.12 for third party service fees and $130,172.02 for telephone and equipment purchases for sale or use by IM Telecom.  All amounts we advanced or paid under the IM Telecom PSMI were owed to us by Mr. Morrow pending closing, some under promissory notes, and with the closing, all such advances, payments and promissory notes due to us by Mr. Morrow have been compromised.  As part of the closing, we engaged the services of Mr. Morrow for a ninety (90) day period following the closing (the “ Morrow Independent Contractor Agreement ”) in consideration of equity compensation in the form of an incentive stock option to acquire 500,000 shares of our common stock at $0.20 per share, with the options vesting on May 1, 2019, and expiring on January 31, 2022 (the “ Morrow Incentive Stock Option Agreement ”).  The resale of the shares underlying the option grant are subject to resale under a “ Lock-Up/Leak-Out Agreement ” that limits the resale of such shares for a six month period



3





from exercise and payment (the “ Lock-Up Period ”), subject to the availability of SEC Rule 144, and an 18 month “ Leak-Out Period ” from the exercise of any portion of the granted options that limits sales weekly sales of such shares to the greater of 5% of the previous 10 day trading volume or 1% of the outstanding securities of the Company divided by 13 weeks.


Copies of the IM Telecom PSMI, as amended, the Morrow Independent Contractor Agreement, the Morrow Incentive Stock Option Agreement and the Lock-Up/Leak-Out Agreement are filed as Exhibits to this Current Report and are incorporated herein by reference.  All summaries of these documents are modified in their entirety by reference to these respective Exhibits.  See Item 9.01.


The Lifeline Program is an FCC program that provides subsidized, fixed or mobile, telecommunications services to low-income households.  We currently offer “ Lifeline (virtual) ” services, primarily in the State of California, as a virtual eligible telecommunications carrier (“ VETC ”) under another wireless company.  IM Telecom is one of only 15 eligible telecommunications carriers (“ ETC ”) with an FCC approved Compliance Plan, and authorized to operate as a Lifeline provider in Oklahoma, Georgia, South Carolina, Vermont, Wisconsin, Nevada and Maryland.  The FCC has not granted an ETC approved Compliance Plan since December 2012.

Services to be Provided by Contractor .  Contractor shall provide the Services for the benefit of Owner commencing on the Effective Date of the PSMI and continuing continuously thereafter for a 90-day period (the “Term”).  In the event that, for whatever reason, the PSMI fails to be executed by all parties on or before February 15, 2018, or there is no closing of the PSMI Transaction by April 30, 2018, at the sole option of the Owner, this Agreement may be extended to a future Effective Date or shall be cancelled in its entirety and rendered null and void.


2.

Compensation for Services.  In consideration of the Services, Owner shall pay to Contractor:

a)

The sum of $10.00 in cash upon the Effective Date of this Agreement;

b)

The sum of $28,000 upon the final closing of the PSMI Transaction; provided, however, that in the event the PSMI Transaction does not close (for whatever reason) on or before April 30, 2018, the obligation of Owner to pay the $28,000 to Contractor shall terminate, shall be deemed deleted from this Agreement and Owner shall have no obligation to pay Contractor all or any portion of said $28,000; and




c)

Owner shall grant to Contractor, as of the Effective Date hereof pursuant to its Incentive Stock Option Plan, the option (the “Option”) to purchase up to 500,000 shares of the common stock of KonaTel, Inc., a Delaware corporation, at an exercise price of $0.20 per share.  The Option shall be in the form and subject to such additional terms and conditions as are set forth in the Incentive Stock Option Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference.  In the event that for any reason whatsoever and without qualification, Owner fails to close the PSMI Transaction with the PSMI having an Effective Date, and/or Contractor fails to perform the Services during the Term hereof, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive nor exercise (nor shall any rights to the Option vest in Contractor in respect thereof) all or any portion of the Option. In further consideration of being compensated by the Option, Contractor represents and warrants that he: (i) is an “accredited investor” as defined in United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC”) Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and understands the meaning of the term “accredited investor”; (ii) has had access to all filings of Owner in the Edgar Archives of the SEC; (iii) has had the opportunity to ask questions of the directors and executive officers of Owner regarding Owner, and to the extent Contractor utilized this opportunity, all questions asked by him have been answered to his total satisfaction; (iv) is acquiring the Owner Options for “investment purposes” and knows and understands the meaning of this term; (v) understands that Owner common stock he will receive on exercise of the Options comprise “restricted securities” as defined in SEC Rule 144, and that the resale of such shares of Owner common stock will be required to be registered with the SEC and sold by him under an “effective” registration statement filed with the SEC and a resale prospectus or in full compliance with SEC Rule 144 as currently in effect or as amended from time to time or another available exemption from registration under the Securities Act, and that as a result thereof, an investment in Owner common stock, including the Options, is illiquid, and Contractor may be required to hold these Options or any underlying shares of Owner common stock for a long period of time, to or including in excess of one (1) year from the exercise of the Options prior to any sale or disposition of these shares; and (vii) is fully capable of assuming the risk of loss of any investment in Owner resulting from the performance of his Services hereunder or otherwise.

Death of Contractor; or

d.

The occurrence of any event that triggers the indemnification obligations of the “Seller” as are set forth in Section 8 of the PSMI, if not cured within 60 days following written notification of Owner’s demand for indemnification to Contractor.  In such event, the Option shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect.


Any termination of this Agreement for any reason shall also result in the immediate termination of any unvested right Contractor shall have to exercise the Option.


4.

Confidential Information.  All information regarding the business operations, marketing, scheduling, procedures, services provided, financial information, clients and customers of Owner shall be deemed the sole property of Owner and shall be deemed to be “Confidential Information.” Contractor shall not during the term of this Agreement (and any extension thereof) and for two (2) years thereafter, directly or indirectly, disclose, divulge or communicate to any person or entity any such Confidential Information.  The parties agree that the Confidential Information is important and material information that affects the success and goodwill of Owner and that any breach of the provisions contained in this paragraph is a material breach of this Agreement.

(d)   Delivery of Certificates .  As soon as practicable after the Company receives the notice and payment of the Exercise Price provided for above, it shall deliver to the person exercising the Option, in the name of such person, a certificate or certificates representing the Shares being purchased.

All Shares so issued shall be fully-paid and nonassessable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no certificate for Shares distributable under this Agreement shall be issued and delivered unless the issuance of such certificate complies with all applicable legal requirements including, without limitation, compliance with the provisions of applicable state securities laws, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the General Rules and Regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) promulgated under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including published interpretations thereof by the SEC.

(a)   Post-Employment .  The Option may be exercised for the later of (i) six (6) months after termination of the Optionee’s employment or (ii) the six (6) months from the vesting of the Option, if such cessation of employment is for a reason other than death or disability or retirement, provided, however, that if termination of the Optionee’s employment shall have been for cause, the Option shall expire, and all rights to purchase Shares hereunder shall terminate, immediately upon such termination.


(b)   Death or Disability .  The Option may be exercised to the extent that the Option was vested and exercisable as of the date of the death or disability of the Optionee, for three (3) months after termination of the Optionee’s employment if such termination of employment is because of death or disability of the Optionee.


8.   Acceleration of Vesting .


(a)   Change in Control .  If a change in control (as defined below) of the Company or buyout of the operations of the Company shall or is to occur, then the Option, if not already exercised in full or otherwise terminated, expired or cancelled, shall become immediately vested and exercisable in full and shall remain exercisable for a period of thirty (30) days following the completion of the change in control.


(b)   Discretionary Acceleration .  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Board or any Committee may, in its sole discretion, declare at any time that the Option shall be immediately exercisable.


9.   Limitation on Transfer .  During the lifetime of the Optionee, only the Optionee or his/her guardian or legal representative may exercise the Option.  The Option may not be assigned or transferred by the Optionee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, or the rules thereunder.

11.   Discretionary Adjustment .  In the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, liquidation, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, rights offering, or extraordinary dividend or divestiture (including a spin off), or any other change in the corporate structure or Shares of the Company, the Board or the Committee (or if the Company does not survive any such transaction, a comparable committee of the Board of Directors of the surviving corporation) may,



7




without the consent of the Optionee, make such adjustment as it determines in its discretion to be appropriate as to the number and kind of securities granted herein and, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights of the Optionee, the number and kind of securities issuable upon exercise of the Option and the exercise price hereof.


12.   Tax Effect of Transfer of Shares .  The Optionee hereby acknowledges that if any Shares received pursuant to the exercise of any portion of the Option are sold within two (2) years from the Date of Grant or within one (1) year from the effective date of exercise of the Option, or if certain other requirements of the Code are not satisfied, such Shares will be deemed under the Code not to have been acquired by the Optionee pursuant to an “incentive stock option” as defined in the Code; and that the Company shall not be liable to the Optionee in the event the Option for any reason is deemed not to be an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of the Code. Furthermore, the Optionee will promptly notify the Company, in writing, of any sale of Shares received through the exercise of any portion of the Option within two (2) years from the Date of Grant or within one (1) year from the effective date of exercise of the Option.


13.   Interpretation of This Agreement .  All decisions and interpretations made by the Board or the Committee, if there is a Committee, with regard to any question arising hereunder shall be binding and conclusive upon the Company and the Optionee.


14.   Discontinuance of Employment .  This Agreement shall not give the Optionee a right to continued employment with the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company, and the Company or any such parent or subsidiary employing the Optionee may terminate his/her employment at any time and otherwise deal with the Optionee without regard to the effect it may have upon him/her under this Agreement.

16.   Obligation to Reserve Sufficient Shares .  The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Shares to satisfy this Agreement.


17.   Binding Effect . This Agreement shall be binding in all respects on the heirs, representatives, successors and assigns of the Optionee.


18.   Choice of Law .  This Agreement is entered into under the laws of the State of Delaware and shall be construed and interpreted thereunder without regard to its conflict of law principles for all matters, including fundamental or procedural laws.


19.    Change in Control .  For all purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall mean: (i)  the completion of one or more transactions by which any person or entity (and his, her or its affiliates) becomes the beneficial owner 50.1% or more of the voting power of the Company’s securities; or (ii)  any merger, consolidation or liquidation of the Company in which the Company is not the continuing or surviving company or pursuant to which stock would be converted into cash, securities or other property, other than a merger of the Company in which the holders of the shares stock immediately before the merger have the same proportionate ownership of the Common Stock of the surviving company immediately after the merger; or (iii)  substantially all of the assets of the Company are sold or otherwise to parties that are not within a “controlled group of corporations” (as defined in Section 1563 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) in which the Company is a member at the time of such sale or transfer.

RECITALS:


WHEREAS, the Company the Company granted the Shareholder an option to acquire 500,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock (respectively, the “ Option ” and the “ Common Stock ”) (designated “Shareholder” for convenience hereunder and shall not become a “Shareholder” until the Option has been exercised); and


WHEREAS, this Agreement is intended to promote an orderly trading market for the shares of Common Stock of the Company; and

WHEREAS, the execution and delivery of this Agreement is a condition to the Option grant; and

WHEREAS, the Company and the Shareholder understand that the Shareholder’s failure to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement could have substantial adverse consequences to the Company, its shareholders and any public trading market for the Company’s Common Stock that cannot be reasonably measured or determined at this time.


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:


1.

Subject to compliance with all of the applicable provisions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC” ) Rule 144 as now in effect or hereafter amended, including SEC interpretations thereof, or an effective S-1 Registration Statement filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act” ), which is accompanied by a “current” Resale Prospectus that includes shares of Common Stock covered hereby that are sought to be publicly sold by a Shareholder through a registered broker-dealer (respectively, a “Registration Statement” and the Shareholder Broker” ), and except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Shareholder may only sell the Common Stock subject to the following conditions, commencing on the later of six (6) months from the Option exercise  (the “Lock-Up Period” ); provided, however, the Lock-Out Period shall not cover any Common Stock owned by the Shareholder that is included in a Registration Statement, though the provisions of the Leak-Out Period (as defined below) shall continue to be






applicable to the Shareholder and the Common Stock.  Following the Lock-Up Period, the Shareholder may sell the Common Stock as follows (the “Leak-Out Period” ):


1.1

The Shareholder shall be allowed to sell in one (1) week, no more than the greater of (i) (5%) of the total shares of the Company publicly traded on any nationally recognized medium of a stature no less than the Pink OTC Markets, Inc. (the “OTC Pink” ) over the previous ten (10) trading days, or (ii) one percent (1%) of the total outstanding shares of the Company as reported in the Company’s most recently filed SEC report or registration statement in the Edgar Archives of the SEC, divided by thirteen (13) weeks, which number may be updated from time to time, based upon the number of shares reflected as being outstanding in the Company’s SEC filings, on a non-cumulative basis, meaning that if the amount of shares allowed to be sold under this subparagraph are not sold in any specific week, that the unsold amount cannot be cumulated and sold in any subsequent week or weeks with the sale of other shares that are allowed to be sold in a specific week. Any sales made by “affiliates” of the Company during the Leak-Out Period are also subject to the standard volume limitations applicable to any “affiliate” of the Company under SEC Rule 144. Notwithstanding, the Company may allow any Shareholder the right to sell or transfer Common Stock in a bona fide private transaction or by gift or for estate planning purposes, subject to receipt of an opinion of legal counsel for the Company that there is an available exemption from registration for any such transaction under the Securities Act, and subject to any transferee’s execution and delivery of a copy of this Agreement; provided, however , in such event, the Shareholder and any transferee in any such conveyance of Common Stock shall be required to aggregate their respective sales of Common Stock during the term of this Agreement so that the combined sale of shares of Common Stock sold by the Shareholder and any transferee does not exceed the number of shares of Common Stock that could have been sold by the Shareholder during the Leak-Out Period as if any such transaction had not occurred.


1.2

Except as otherwise provided herein (or by operation of law), all Common Stock shall be sold by the Shareholder in “broker’s transactions” and in compliance with the “manner of sale” requirements as those terms are defined in Rule 144 of the SEC during the Leak-Out Period.


1.3

An appropriate legend describing this Agreement shall be imprinted on each stock certificate representing Common Stock covered hereby, and the transfer records of the Company’s transfer agent shall reflect such resale restrictions.




2






2.

3.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company may, in its sole discretion and in good faith, at any time and from time to time, waive any of the conditions or restrictions contained herein to increase the liquidity of the Common Stock or if such waiver would otherwise be in the best interests of the development of the public trading market for the Company’s Common Stock.  Unless otherwise agreed, all such waivers shall be pro rata, as to all Shareholders who have executed a Lock-Up/Leak-Out Agreement with the Company, and all such shares of Common Stock shall be subject to sale in accordance will all applicable securities laws, rules and regulations.  


4.

In the event of: (a) a completed tender offer to purchase all or substantially all of the Company’s issued and outstanding securities (at least 50.1% or more of the Company’s voting securities); or (b) a merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company with or into an unaffiliated entity that results in a change in control of the Company (excluding the Merger Agreement and resulting in a change in control of 50.1% or more of the Company), then this Agreement shall terminate as of the closing of such event, and the Common Stock restrictions on the resale of the Common Stock pursuant hereto shall terminate, though the requirement that all shares of Common Stock shall be subject to sale in accordance will all applicable securities laws, rules and regulations shall continue.


5.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other agreements between the parties or otherwise, the Shareholder shall be entitled to the



3






beneficial rights of ownership of the Common Stock, including the right to vote the Common Stock for any and all purposes, only on the Option exercise, and then, only with respect to the shares acquired in the Option exercise.


6.

The number of shares of Common Stock included in any allotment that can be sold by the Shareholder hereunder shall be appropriately adjusted should the Company declare and effect a dividend or distribution, undergo a forward split or a reverse split or otherwise reclassify its shares of Common Stock.


7.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same force and effect as if all parties had executed the same document.


8.

All notices, instructions or other communications required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be given in writing and delivered by certified mail, return receipt requested, overnight delivery or hand-delivered to all parties to this Agreement, to the Company, at 13601 Preston Road, # E816, Dallas, Texas 75240 (or the current address of the Company in the SEC Archives as listed in its most recently filed report or registration statement respectively filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act” ) or the Securities Act, and to the Shareholder or the Shareholder’s Broker, at the addresses in the Counterpart Signature Page.  All notices shall be deemed to be given on the same day if delivered by hand or on the following business day if sent by overnight delivery or the second business day following the date of mailing.


9.

The resale restrictions on the Common Stock set forth in this Agreement shall be in addition to all other restrictions on transfer imposed by applicable United States and state securities laws, rules and regulations.


10.

The Company or the Shareholder who fails to fully adhere to the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be liable to every other party to this Agreement for any damages suffered by any party by reason of any such breach of the terms and conditions hereof.  The Shareholder agrees that in the event of a breach of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement by the Shareholder, that in addition to all other remedies that may be available in law or in equity to the non-defaulting parties, a preliminary and permanent injunction, without bond or surety, and an order of a court requiring such Shareholder to cease and desist from violating the terms and conditions of this Agreement and specifically requiring the Shareholder to perform his/her/its obligations hereunder is fair and reasonable by reason of the inability of the parties to this Agreement to presently determine the type, extent or amount of damages that the Company or any non-defaulting Shareholder may suffer as a result of any breach of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the continuation thereof.


11.

This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be amended except by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto and approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company.
