  Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
Merger Agreement and Support Agreements
 
On November 2, 2018, Inuvo, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with ConversionPoint Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CPT”), ConversionPoint Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of CPT (“Parent”), CPT Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“CPT Merger Sub”), and CPT Cigar Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Inuvo Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, the Company will merge with and into Inuvo Merger Sub with the Company as the surviving corporation in the Inuvo Merger (the “Inuvo Merger”), and CPT merging with and into CPT Merger Sub with CPT as the surviving corporation in the CPT Merger (the “CPT Merger” and collectively with the Inuvo Merger, the “Mergers”). Upon consummation of the Mergers, CPT and Inuvo will be wholly-owned subsidiaries of Parent. Immediately following consummation of the Mergers, Parent shall change its name to ConversionPoint Technologies, Inc. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of each of the Company, CPT, Parent, CPT Merger Sub, and Inuvo Merger Sub.
 
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), the Company’s shareholders will be entitled to receive $0.45 in cash and 0.18877 shares of Parent common stock for each share of common stock of the Company, and CPT’s stockholders will be entitled to receive 0.9840 shares of Parent common stock for each share of common stock of CPT. Each outstanding option to acquire a share of the Company’s common stock will be converted into an option to acquire 0.2370 shares of Parent’s common stock. In addition, unvested restricted stock units will vest in full immediately prior to consummation of the Mergers and will be entitled to receive the merger consideration. No fractional shares of Parent common stock will be issued in the Mergers and Parent stockholders and CPT stockholders will receive cash in lieu of any fractional interests.
 
The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from each party to the agreement, and each party has agreed to customary covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to (1) the conduct of the CPT’s and the Company’s businesses during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the closing of the Mergers, (2) the Company’s obligations to facilitate its shareholders’ consideration of, and voting upon, the Merger Agreement and the Inuvo Merger, (3) CPT’s obligations to facilitate its stockholders’ consideration of, and voting upon, the Merger Agreement and the CPT Merger, (4) the recommendation by the Board of Directors of the Company in favor of approval of the Merger Agreement and the Inuvo Merger by the Company’s shareholders, and (5) the Company’s non-solicitation obligations relating to alternative business combination transactions.
 
The completion of the Merger is subject to (1) the approval of CPT’s stockholders and the Company’s shareholders, (2) regulatory approvals, (3) the closing of financing to the Parent of $36,000,000 (the “Financing”), (4) the approval of the listing of shares of Parent’s common stock on NASDAQ and conditional approval for listing on the TSX, (5) the delivery of customary opinions from counsel to the CPT and the Company to the effect that the Mergers will qualify as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes (6) Parent entering into separation agreements with Mr. Howe, the Company Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ruiz, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, and Mr. Pisaris, the Company’s General Counsel, and (7) other customary closing conditions. Immediately following the Mergers, Richard K. Howe will serve as non-executive chairman of the board of directors of the Parent and an additional individual appointed by Inuvo shall serve on the seven member board of directors of the Parent.
 
The Mergers and the Financing, taken together, are intended to qualify as an “exchange” governed by Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
The Merger Agreement contains customary termination rights for both the Company and CPT and further provides that (1) a termination payment of approximately $2.8 million will be payable by the Company to CPT in certain circumstances; and (2) a termination payment of approximately $2.8 million will be payable by CPT to the Company in certain circumstances, including if the Parent fails to consummate the Financing by May 31, 2019.
 
 
 
 
The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
  
The Merger Agreement has been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual or financial information about the Company, CPT, or the Parent, or their respective subsidiaries and affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for purposes of that agreement and as of specific dates; are solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement; may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company, CPT, or Parent or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The Merger Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding the companies and the Mergers that will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the joint proxy statement/prospectus that the parties will file in connection with the Mergers, as well as in the other filing that the Company makes with the SEC.
 
As a condition to CPT’s willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Company and each of the directors and officers of the Company have entered into Support Agreements with CPT, Parent, CPT Merger Sub, Inuvo Merger Sub, and Inuvo, dated as of November 2, 2018 (the “Support Agreements”), pursuant to which the directors and officers have agreed to vote their common shares of the Company in favor of the Inuvo Merger. Each Support Agreement terminates on the earlier of (1) the consummation of the Inuvo Merger, and (2) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms.
 
The foregoing description of the Support Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each Support Agreement, which are each attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1-99.8 and are incorporated herein by reference.
 
Subordinated Promissory Notes
 
On November 1, 2018, the Company and CPT Investments, LLC, an affiliate of CPT (the “Noteholder”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold a $1,000,000 principal amount, 10% interest, senior unsecured subordinated convertible promissory note (the “Subordinated Promissory Note”) to the Noteholder. The proceeds of the Subordinated Promissory Notes will be used for working capital.
 
The Subordinated Promissory Note, which bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum, and the principal and accrued interest is due on November 1, 2021. The maturity date of the Subordinated Promissory Note is subject to acceleration in the event (i) the Closing (as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement) occurs pursuant to the Merger Agreement, in which event the maturity date is accelerated to the fifth day after the Closing Date (as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement), or (ii) immediately upon an Event of Default (as that term is defined in the Subordinated Promissory Note). The Company has the right to prepay the amounts due under the Subordinated Promissory Note at any time, upon 15 days prior written notice to the Noteholder, subject to the terms of the Subordinated Promissory Note and Noteholder consent. The Company’s obligations under the Subordinated Promissory Note are unsecured and subordinate to the Company’s obligations to Western Alliance Bank, a secured lender of the Company.
 
In the event Merger Agreement is terminated, and providing that the shares issuable upon the possible conversion of the Subordinated Promissory Note have been approved for listing on the NYSE American, the Noteholder may, upon 15 days written notice to the Company, elect to convert all or any portion of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest due under the Subordinated Promissory Note into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.44 per share, or $0.35 per share if the Merger Agreement is terminated for any reason other than in connection with a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement). The conversion prices are subject to proportional adjustment in the event of stock split or adjustments. The Subordinated Promissory Note also contains a provision limiting the Company’s ability to issue any shares of its common stock upon any voluntary conversion by the Noteholder which, when aggregated with all shares of its common stock issued pursuant to a conversion of the Subordinated Promissory Note, would exceed 19.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock immediately preceding the issuance of the note without first obtaining stockholder approval in accordance with the rules of the NYSE American.
 
 
 
 
On November 1, 2018, the Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Noteholder covering the shares of the Company’s common stock which may be issued upon a conversion of the Subordinated Promissory Note. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of such shares by the 15th calendar day after the termination of the Merger Agreement (or the 30th calendar day after the termination of the Merger Agreement in the event the registration statement is filed on Form S-1) and thereafter use best efforts to cause the staff of the SEC to declare such registration statement effective as soon as possible. In the event it is determined that the Company may effect the registration of such shares by filing a prospectus supplement to the Company’s shelf registration statement, in in lieu of filing a resale registration statement, the Company agreed to file a prospectus supplement to the shelf registration statement covering the issuance of such shares upon a conversion of the Subordinated Promissory Note. The Company also granted the Noteholder piggy-back registration rights over the shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon a conversion of the Subordinated Promissory Note in the event such shares are not covered by an effective registration statement. The Company is obligated to pay all costs associated with the preparation and filing of such registration statement and up to $25,000 to cover the costs of counsel for the Noteholder.
 
The foregoing descriptions of the terms and conditions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, Subordinated Promissory Note and Registration Rights Agreement are qualified in their entirety by references to these agreements which are filed as Exhibits 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4, respectively, to this report. 
 
Affiliate Notes
 
On November 1, 2018, each of Messrs. Richard K. Howe, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and member of the Company’s board of directors, and Charles D. Morgan, G. Kent Burnett and Gordon Cameron, members of the Company’s board of directors, lent the Company $62,500, for an aggregate of $250,000, under the terms of 10% Promissory Notes (the “Affiliate Notes”). The Company used the proceeds from these notes to cover a portion of the costs associated with the pending Mergers. The Affiliate Notes are unsecured, bear interest at 10% per annum, and the principal and accrued interest is due on November 1, 2019, subject to acceleration upon an Event of Default or Change of Control (as both terms are defined in the Affiliate Note). The Company’s obligations under the Affiliate Notes are unsecured and subordinate to the Company’s obligations to Western Alliance Bank, a secured lender of the Company, and to the holders of the Company’s Subordinated Promissory Notes.. The description of the terms and conditions of the Affiliate Notes is qualified in its entirety by referenced to the form of note which is filed as Exhibit 2.5 to this report.
 
ITEM 8.01           OTHER EVENTS
 
On November 5, 2018, the Company and CPT issued a joint press release announcing the execution of the Merger Agreement. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.9 and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
 
Statements contained or incorporated by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K that refer to Inuvo’s estimated or anticipated future results, including estimated synergies, or other non-historical expressions of fact are forward-looking statements that reflect Inuvo’s current perspective of existing trends and information as of the date of this communication. Forward looking statements generally will be accompanied by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “could,” “should,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “outlook,” “guidance,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “possible,” “goal,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” or other similar words, phrases or expressions. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the benefits of the acquisition of Inuvo by ConversionPoint Technologies, including future financial and operating results, Inuvo’s or ConversionPoint Technologies’ plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and the expected timing of completion of the transaction. It is important to note that Inuvo’s goals and expectations are not predictions of actual performance. Actual results may differ materially from Inuvo’s current expectations depending upon a number of factors affecting Inuvo’s business, ConversionPoint Technologies’ business and risks associated with acquisition transactions generally. These factors include, among others, the inherent uncertainty associated with financial projections; restructuring in connection with, and successful closing of, the merger transaction; subsequent integration of the merger transaction and the ability to recognize the anticipated synergies and benefits of the merger transaction; the ability of ConversionPoint Holdings to obtain the required $36 million in financing upon commercially reasonable terms, including risks that the financing values the equity of ConversionPoint Holdings less than the estimates of equity valuation set forth herein; the ability to obtain the requisite Inuvo and ConversionPoint Technologies stockholder approvals; the risk that a condition to closing of the merger transaction may not be satisfied on a timely basis or at all; the failure of the proposed merger transaction to close for any other reason; risks relating to the value of the ConversionPoint Holdings shares to be issued in the transaction; risks relating to the ability of ConversionPoint Holdings to list its shares on The NASDAQ Capital Market and The Toronto Stock Exchange; the anticipated size of the markets and continued demand for Inuvo’s and ConversionPoint Technologies’ products; the impact of competitive products and pricing; the risks and uncertainties normally incident to the ecommerce industry; the difficulty of predicting the timing or outcome of pending or future litigation or government investigations; changes in generally accepted accounting principles; costs and efforts to defend or enforce intellectual property rights; the loss of key senior management or staff; and such other risks and uncertainties detailed in Inuvo’s periodic public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to Inuvo’s “Risk Factors” section contained in Inuvo’s Annual Report on Rom 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, and Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 8, 2018 and from time to time in Inuvo’s other investor communications. Except as expressly required by law, Inuvo disclaims any intent or obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release.

ARTICLE III
EFFECT ON CAPITAL STOCK; EXCHANGE PROCEDURES
 
Section 3.1 The CPT Merger .
 
(a)   CPT Merger Consideration . Pursuant to the CPT Merger, each share of CPT Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) shares of CPT Common Stock held in CPT’s treasury, which shall be cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(c) , (ii) shares of CPT Common Stock held by CPT Merger Sub, which shall be cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(c) and (iii) Dissenting Shares) shall by virtue of the CPT Merger and without any action on the part of the CPT Merger Sub, CPT or the holder thereof, be converted into and become that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the CPT Exchange Ratio (subject to adjustment for any stock split, reverse split, stock dividend or other similar distribution with respect to CPT Common Stock) (the “ CPT Merger Consideration ”). All such shares of CPT Common Stock, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of uncertificated CPT Common Stock represented in book-entry form (“ CPT Book-Entry Shares ”) or a certificate representing any such shares of CPT Common Stock (each, a “ CPT Certificate ”) shall cease to have any ownership or other rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the shares of Parent Common Stock, in each case upon (i) the receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of CPT Book-Entry Shares; in each case, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent, or (ii) the surrender of such CPT Certificate in accordance with Section 3.3 and without any interest thereon. Pursuant to the CPT Merger, at the Effective Time, each share of common stock of CPT Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the CPT Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into and exchanged for one share of CPT Common Stock. The separate existence and corporate organization of CPT Merger Sub shall cease upon the Effective Time.
 
(b)   Fractional Shares . No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the conversion of CPT Common Stock in the CPT Merger and the distribution of Parent Common Stock in respect thereof, but in lieu of such fraction, the Exchange Agent shall make a cash payment (without interest and subject to the payment of any applicable withholding Taxes) equal to the same fraction of the market value of a full share of Parent Common Stock, computed on the basis of the mean of the high and low sales prices of Parent Common Stock as reported on the NASDAQ Capital Market on the first full day on which the Parent Common Stock is traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market after the [Effective Time/Closing] (the “ Fractional Share Cash Amount ”). The parties acknowledge that payment of the cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional shares was not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding-off for purposes of simplifying the corporate and accounting complexities which would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares.
 
 
 
18
 
 
 
(c)   Treasury Shares . At the Effective Time, each share of capital stock held in the treasury of CPT and each share of CPT Common Stock held by CPT Merger Sub shall, by virtue of the CPT Merger and without any action on the part of CPT or CPT Merger Sub be canceled, retired and cease to exist and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of CPT Common Stock which are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by holders who shall have complied with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (the “ Dissenting Shares ”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the applicable CPT Exchange Ratio, and holders of such Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to receive payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL, unless and until the applicable holder fails to comply with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL or effectively withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s rights to receive payment of the fair value of such holder’s Dissenting Shares under Section 262 of the DGCL. If, after the Effective Time, any such holder fails to comply with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL or effectively withdraws or loses such right, such Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be treated as if they had been converted at the CPT Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable CPT Exchange Ratio and the Parent shall remain liable for payment of the CPT Exchange Ratio with respect to such Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.1(d) , if this Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time, then the right of any holder of CPT Common Stock to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL shall cease. CPT shall give Parent notice of any written demands for appraisal of CPT Common Stock received by CPT under Section 262 of the DGCL, and shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and Proceedings with respect thereto.

The exercise price and the number of shares purchasable pursuant to the assumed CPT Stock Options as well as the terms and conditions of exercise of such assumed options shall be designed to comply with Sections 424(a) and 409A of the Code. Any restriction on the exercisability of such CPT Stock Option will continue in full force and effect, and the term, exercisability, vesting schedule or other provisions of such CPT Stock Option will remain unchanged. The CPT Merger will not terminate any of the outstanding CPT Stock Options or accelerate the exercisability or vesting of such CPT Stock Options or the shares of Parent Common Stock underlying the CPT Stock Options upon Parent’s assumption thereof in the CPT Merger.

Each CPT Warrant assumed by Parent will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions of such warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (A) each CPT Warrant will be exercisable for a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of CPT Common Stock that would have been issuable upon exercise of the CPT Warrant outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the CPT Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, and (B) the per share exercise price for the Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed CPT Warrant will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the per share exercise price for such CPT Warrant outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time by the CPT Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Any restriction on the exercisability of such CPT Warrant will continue in full force and effect, and the term, exercisability or other provisions of such CPT Warrant will remain unchanged. Consistent with the terms of the CPT Warrants, the CPT Merger will not accelerate the exercisability of such CPT Warrants or the shares of Parent Common Stock underlying the CPT Warrants upon Parent’s assumption thereof in the CPT Merger.
 
(g)   Treatment of CPT RSUs . To the extent the CPT RSUs have not been terminated in accordance with their terms, at the Effective Time, CPT shall cause each outstanding restricted stock unit to purchase CPT Common Stock (each, a “ CPT RSU ”) by virtue of the CPT Merger to vest in full so to no longer be subject to any forfeiture or vesting requirements, and all such shares of CPT Common Stock shall be considered outstanding shares for all purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, for purposes of the right to receive the CPT Merger Consideration with respect thereto. The CPT Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof administering the CPT Stock Plans) shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions as may be required to effect the foregoing.

All such shares of Inuvo Common Stock, when so converted and paid for in accordance with the preceding sentence, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of uncertificated Inuvo Common Stock represented in book-entry form (“ Inuvo Book-Entry Shares ”) or a certificate (each, an “ Inuvo Certificate ”) representing any such shares of Inuvo Common Stock shall cease to have any ownership or other rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the shares of Parent Common Stock and the Inuvo Cash Merger Consideration, in each case upon (i) the receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of Inuvo Book-Entry Shares; in each case, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent or (ii) the surrender of such Inuvo Certificate in accordance with Section 3.3 and without any interest thereon. Pursuant to the Inuvo Merger, at the Effective Time, each share of common stock of Inuvo Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Inuvo Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into and exchanged for one share of Inuvo Common Stock.

Parent and Inuvo agree to use their best efforts to cause the Inuvo Merger to be consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge that payment of the cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional shares was not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding-off for purposes of simplifying the corporate and accounting complexities which would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares.
 
(c)   Treasury Shares . At the Effective Time, each share of capital stock held in the treasury of Inuvo and each share of Inuvo Common Stock held by Inuvo Merger Sub shall, by virtue of the Inuvo Merger and without any action on the part of Inuvo or Inuvo Merger Sub be canceled, retired and cease to exist and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

The exercise price and the number of shares purchasable pursuant to the assumed Inuvo Stock Options as well as the terms and conditions of exercise of such assumed options shall be designed to comply with Sections 424(a) and 409A of the Code. Any restriction on the exercisability of such Inuvo Stock Option will continue in full force and effect, and the term, exercisability, vesting schedule or other provisions of such Inuvo Stock Option will remain unchanged. Except as provided in the Inuvo Separation Agreements, the Inuvo Merger will not terminate any of the outstanding Inuvo Stock Options or accelerate the exercisability or vesting of such Inuvo Stock Options or the shares of Parent Common Stock (or prior to the Effective Time, Inuvo Common Stock) underlying the Inuvo Stock Options upon Parent’s assumption thereof in the Inuvo Merger.

To the extent the Inuvo Restricted Stock Units have not been terminated in accordance with their terms, at the Effective Time, Invuo shall cause each outstanding restricted stock unit to purchase Inuvo Common Stock (each, an “ Inuvo RSU ”) to vest in full so to no longer be subject to any forfeiture or vesting requirements, and all such shares of Inuvo Common Stock shall be considered outstanding shares for all purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, for purposes of the right to receive the Inuvo Merger Consideration with respect thereto.

As of their respective dates, or if amended or superseded by a subsequent filing prior to the date hereof, as of the date of such amendment or superseded filing (and, in the case of registration statements and proxy statements, as of the dates of effectiveness and the dates of the relevant meetings, respectively), the Inuvo SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the Inuvo SEC Documents, and none of the Inuvo SEC Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC, or if amended or superseded by a subsequent filing prior to the date hereof, as of the date of such amendment or superseded filing (and, in the case of registration statements and proxy statements, as of the dates of effectiveness and the dates of the relevant meetings, respectively), contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As of their respective dates, or if amended or superseded by a subsequent filing prior to the date hereof, as of the date of such amendment or superseded filing (and, in the case of registration statements and proxy statements, as of the dates of effectiveness and the dates of the relevant meetings, respectively), the financial statements of Inuvo included in the Inuvo SEC Documents (the “ Inuvo Financial Statements ”) complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect as of the time of filing.

Inuvo is not currently contemplating to amend or restate any of the Inuvo Financial Statements (including without limitation, any notes or any letter of the independent accountants of Inuvo with respect thereto) included in the Inuvo SEC Documents, nor is Inuvo currently aware of facts or circumstances which would require Inuvo to amend or restate any of the Inuvo Financial Statements, in each case, in order for any of the Inuvo Financials Statements to be in compliance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC.

If any Party or any Representative of such Parties receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger, then such Party shall use reasonable best efforts to make, or cause to be made, promptly and after consultation with the other Parties to this Agreement, an appropriate response in substantial compliance with such request.

To the extent that service is relevant for eligibility, vesting or allowances (including paid time off) under any health or welfare benefit plan of Parent, Inuvo, or CPT, then Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such health or welfare benefit plan shall, for purposes of eligibility, vesting and allowances (including paid time off) but not for purposes of benefit accrual, credit Continuing Employees for service prior to the Effective Time with Inuvo or CPT, as applicable, to the same extent that such service was recognized prior to the Effective Time under the corresponding health or welfare benefit plan of Inuvo or CPT, as applicable. Nothing in this Section 6.10 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be construed to create a right in any employee to employment with Parent, Inuvo, or CPT or any other Subsidiary of the foregoing and the employment of each Continuing Employee shall be “at will” employment, unless such Continuing Employee enters into, or is already party to, a preexisting employment agreement or contract for employment.

(c)   Each of Parent, CPT and Inuvo agrees, that all rights to indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses now existing in favor of any Indemnified Directors and Officers or any current or former employee of CPT, Inuvo or any of their respective Subsidiaries (together with their heirs, executors and administrators, and any Indemnified Directors and Officers, the “ Indemnified Parties ”) as provided in CPT Certificate of Incorporation, CPT Bylaws, Inuvo Articles of Incorporation or Inuvo Bylaws (or the organizational documents of CPT’s or Inuvo’s Subsidiaries) shall survive the Mergers and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, Parent shall maintain in effect the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions of CPT Certificate of Incorporation, CPT Bylaws, Inuvo Articles of Incorporation or Inuvo Bylaws (and the organizational documents of CPT’s and Inuvo’s Subsidiaries) now in effect and any such indemnification agreements of CPT, Inuvo or any of their respective Subsidiaries with the Indemnified Parties and not to amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of such Indemnified Parties, and all such rights in respect of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or asserted or claim made or threatened within such period shall continue until the final disposition or resolution thereof.

Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain competitive quotes (from insurance providers with comparable ratings) for such insurance coverage in an effort to reduce the cost thereof.

The obligations under this Section 6.11 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to affect adversely any Indemnified Party to whom this Section 6.11 applies without the consent of such affected Indemnified Party (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 6.11 applies and their respective heirs, successors and assigns shall be express third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.11 ).

(iii)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the time that the Required Inuvo Stockholder Vote has been obtained, Inuvo receives a bona fide Inuvo Takeover Proposal that did not result from a breach or a deemed breach (pursuant to Section 6.12(a)(iv)) by Inuvo or any Inuvo Representative of Section 6.12(a)(i) and/or (ii) , or the Confidentiality Agreement and Inuvo otherwise has complied with Sections 6.12(a)(i) and (ii) , and the Inuvo Board determines in good faith (A) after consultation with outside counsel and an independent financial advisor that such Inuvo Takeover Proposal is, or is reasonably likely to result in, a Superior Inuvo Proposal and (B) after consultation with outside counsel that failure to take the actions set forth in clauses (1) and (2) below with respect to such Inuvo Takeover Proposal would be inconsistent with the Inuvo Board’s fiduciary duties to Inuvo’s stockholders under applicable Law, Inuvo may, subject to providing prior written notice of its decision to take such action to CPT and compliance with Section 6.12(c) : (1) furnish information with respect to Inuvo and Inuvo’s Subsidiaries to the Person making such Inuvo Takeover Proposal pursuant to a confidentiality agreement no less restrictive of the other party than the Confidentiality Agreement (but which confidentiality agreement may allow such Person to make any Inuvo Takeover Proposal to Inuvo in connection with the negotiations and discussions permitted by this Section 6.12 ), provided that all such material information not previously provided to CPT is promptly provided to CPT and (2) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Inuvo Takeover Proposal regarding such Inuvo Takeover Proposal.

Any agreement on the part of a Party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

Each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.
 
Section 9.11   Governing Law . This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

Each of the Parties hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the respective addresses set forth in Section 9.2 shall be effective service of process for any suit or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b)   At any meeting of the stockholders of Inuvo to which Section 1(a) above is applicable, the Stockholder shall, or shall direct the holder(s) of record of all of the Subject Shares on any applicable record date to, appear, in person or by proxy, at each meeting or otherwise cause all of the Subject Shares to be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum.

FORM OF SEPARATION AGREEMENT
 
 
 
 
 
CONTINGENT SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT
 
 
 
THIS CONTINGENT SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made by and among [_______________] (the “Employee”), Inuvo, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and ConversionPoint Holdings, Inc. (“Buyer”) as of this ____ day of _______________, 2019 (the “Agreement Date”).
 
W I T N E S S E T H :
 
WHEREAS, the Employee is employed by the Company as [_______________] 1 pursuant to an Employment Agreement dated March 1, 2012 (the “Employment Agreement”); and
 
WHEREAS, the Company and Buyer and other wholly-owned subsidiaries of Buyer have entered into a Merger Agreement, dated November 2, 2018 (the “Merger Agreement”) whereby the Company has agreed to merge with a subsidiary of Buyer (the “Merger”).
 
WHEREAS, Employee, by signing below, acknowledges Employee’s separation from employment with Inuvo and as an employee of Inuvo and Insperity Companies II, L.P. (“Insperity”) in any other capacity, as well as Employee’s resignation as [a director of the Company and as] 2 a director and officer of any subsidiaries of the Company effective as of the dates set forth herein. [This Agreement has no impact on Employee’s service as a Director of Buyer as contemplated by the Merger Agreement.] 3
 
WHEREAS, the Company and the Employee are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Parties,” or individually as a “Party.”
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained in this Agreement, the Employee and the Company agree as follows:
 
 
 
1.   This Agreement is contingent upon consummation of the Merger. If for any reason the Merger is not consummated this Agreement shall automatically terminate and Employee’s employment with the Company shall continue pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement.
 
 
1 Note : Applicable to Richard K. Howe, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; Wallace D. Ruiz, Chief Financial Officer; and John B. Pisaris, General Counsel.
2 Note : Applicable to Richard K. Howe only.
3 Note : Applicable to Richard K. Howe only.
 
 
 
 
2.   On the date the Merger Closes (the “Effective Date”) the Company shall be deemed to have delivered written notice of termination without Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement) to Employee (the “Notice Date”). Employee’s employment with the Company and Insperity will be terminated effective on the earlier of (i) one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Notice Date; or (ii) upon thirty (30) days written notice from the Employee, which notice shall not be given prior to the sixty (60) day anniversary of the Notice Date (the “Termination Date”). The Termination Date may be extended with the mutual written agreement of the parties. Between the Notice Date and the Termination Date, Employee shall: (i) no longer serve or act as the Company’s [___________________] but shall remain an employee through the Termination Date; and (ii) not be required to report to work, but shall be available on a limited basis to assist the Company with the orderly transition of his duties. Additionally, Employee resigns [as a director of the Company and] 4 as a director and officer of any subsidiaries of the Company effective as of the Notice Date. Health care and dental insurance coverage will continue under the Company’s benefits plans, as then in effect, until 11:59pm on the end of the month in which the Termination Date occurs. After the Termination Date, COBRA options are available depending on eligibility.
 
3.   Until the Termination Date, the Company shall pay the Employee (i) the earned but unpaid portion of the Employee’s Basic Salary (as defined in the Employment Agreement) through the Termination Date and (ii) any other amounts or benefits owing to the Employee under the applicable employee benefit, incentive or equity plans and programs of the Company, which shall be paid or treated in accordance with the terms of such plans and programs. All payme nts made under this Paragraph 3 will be subject to applicable federal and state tax withholding and statutory deductions.
 
4.   On the Termination Date, the Company shall pay the Employee a lump sum severance of $_____________ 5 (the “[Initial] Severance Payment”). [Following the first day of the month after six (6) months after the Termination Date, the Company shall pay the Employee $168,057, paid over a period of six (6) months in twelve (12) equal installments payable on the 15th and last business day of each month (the “Trailing Severance Payments, and, collectively with the Initial Severance Payment, the “Severance Payments”)]. 6 The payme nts made under this Paragraph 4 will be subject to applicable federal and state tax withholding and statutory deductions. Employee agrees and understands that the Severance Payment[s] made under this Agreement [is / are] the sole responsibility of the Company and that Insperity Companies II, L.P. (“Insperity”) has no obligation to make the Severance Payment[s] even though such payments may be processed in whole or in part through Insperity. Furthermore, Employee understands and agrees that if the Company determines that any amount paid to Employee under this Agreement should not commence until the first day of the month after six (6) months after the Termination Date because Employee is a “specified employee” under Code Section 409A, then the Company shall in good faith adjust the form and timing of such payments as it reasonably determines to be necessary or advisable to comply with Code Section 409A.
 
 
4 Note : Applicable to Richard K. Howe only.
5 Note : Richard K. Howe to receive $550,000; Wallace D. Ruiz to receive $417,206; John B. Pisaris to receive $398,097.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, Employee does not waive any rights related to the settlement of outstanding restricted stock units and stock options contained in the Merger Agreement and such items shall be settled as set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that Section 6(b) of the Employment Agreement requires, as a condition precedent to receiving the Severance Payment[s], the Employee to provide the Company with a written general release that releases the Company from both known and unknown claims and in which the Employee agrees not to disparage the Company or its affiliates and in which the Employee acknowledges his continuing obligations under the Non-Competition, Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement entered into by the parties (the “Non-Competition Agreement”), all of which are contained hereunder.
 
6.   In exchange for the valuable consideration hereunder, including but not limited to the Severance Payment, the Employee hereby releases the Company, the Buyer, Insperity and each of their respective employees, officers, directors, stockholders, agents, affiliates, subsidiaries, parent corporations, successors, legal representatives and assigns, as well as each of the above entities’ past and present officers, directors, employees, shareholders, members, trustees, joint venturers, attorneys, partners, and anyone claiming through them (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, demands, rights, damages, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees and compensation in any form whatsoever, whether known or unknown, which the Employee now has or may have, or which may hereafter accrue against any of the Released Parties on account of or in any way growing out of the Employee’s employment with the Company and Insperity and the Employment Agreement or the termination thereof or otherwise arising up to and including the Termination Date, including, but not limited to, claims for wrongful discharge, breach of implied or express contracts (including the Employment Agreement), breach of an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, tortious interference with contract or prospective economic advantage, claims for wages, vacation and bonus compensation, violation of public policy, intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress, negligent hiring/supervision, defamation, fraud, or other wrongful conduct, including, specifically, any claims arising out of any legal or contractual restriction on the Company’s or Insperity’s right to terminate its employees, claims for wages, bonuses, incentives, employment benefits, and claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Civil Rights Act of 1991 and the laws amended thereby, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Equal Pay Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, [the Arkansas Civil Rights Act of 1993, the Arkansas Uniform Contribution Among Tortfeasors Act / the Florida Civil Rights Act, Florida Whistleblower Protection Act, Florida Workers’ Compensation Law Retaliation provision, Florida Wage Discrimination Law, Florida Equal Pay Law, Florida AIDS Act, Florida Discrimination on the Basis of Sickle Cell Trait Law,] 7 or any other provision of federal, state or local statutory or common law or regulation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of Employee’s right to indemnification from the Company for any third party claims, including but not limited to indemnification rights under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, ByLaws, Directors and Officers insurance, Nevada law or any other agreements between the Company and the Employee providing for indemnification. This general release does not waive any of the Employee’s claims for workers’ compensation, unemployment compensation, or any other applicable law for which claims cannot be waived as a matter of law.

Furthermore, nothing in this Agreement prevents Employee from filing any claim that the law precludes him from waiving by agreement, including any administrative charge or complaint filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, any state equivalent, or any other governmental agency. Employee, however, expressly waives and releases any right Employee may have to recover any damages (including without limitation any attorneys’ fees) resulting from such an administrative charge or any complaint that may be instituted on Employee’s behalf against the Company by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, any state equivalent, or any other governmental agency, or in any class or collective action that may be filed on Employee’s behalf.
 
8.           To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Company hereby warrants that it has not and will not institute any lawsuit, claim, action, charge, complaint, petition, appeal, accusatory pleading, or proceeding of any kind against Employee, and the Company waives, or at a minimum assigns to Employee, any and all rights to any and all forms of recovery or compensation from any legal action brought by the Company or on the Company's behalf in connection with Employee’s employment with the Company or Insperity or the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company or Insperity. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, in the event that a lawsuit or any of the foregoing actions are filed by Company in breach of this covenant, it is expressly understood and agreed that this covenant shall constitute a complete defense to any such lawsuit or action. The Company further acknowledges and agrees that any material breach by the Company of any of the terms contained in this Agreement relieves Employee of any and all obligations he may have pursuant to this Agreement. The Company further agrees that should it bring any type of administrative, equitable, or legal action arising out of claims waived under this Agreement, the Company will bear all legal fees and costs associated therewith.

The Employee hereby represents and warrants that he has not retained any copies, electronic or otherwise, of any such Company Property. The term “Company Property” does not include the Employee’s copy of this Agreement. The Employee agrees to cooperate with the Company with regard to resigning all corporate positions and directorships he may have with the Company and/or any affiliated entities.

10.           The Employee and the Company agree that they will not directly or indirectly, individually or in concert with others for a period of five years from the date of this Agreement, (i) disparage, interfere with or attempt to interfere with, the Employee’s or the Company’s, as applicable, reputation, goodwill, services, business and/or the Company’s stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives and any affiliates or (ii) engage in any conduct, take any actions, make any statements (oral or written), or engage in any internet or other electronic communications (such as blog posts, message boarding, text messages, e-mail, or instant messages) to the public, future employers, Company shareholders, customers, or vendors, the investment community, the media, current, former or future Company employees, or any other third party whatsoever that is calculated to have, or reasonably likely or possibly having, the effect of undermining, disparaging or otherwise reflecting negatively or could reasonably be considered to undermine, disparage or reflect negatively, on the Company, its reputation, goodwill, services, business and/or stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives and its affiliates.

15.           Employee acknowledges and agree that the Company has not made any representations to the Employee regarding the tax consequences of any amounts received by the Employee pursuant to this Agreement and further the Employee agrees that he shall be solely responsible for payment of all his personal tax liabilities due on any and all payments to him set forth in this Agreement, including but not limited to federal, state and local taxes, and interest and penalties, which are or may become due.
 
16.           Nothing contained in this Agreement, or the fact of its submission to the Employee, shall be admissible evidence in any judicial, administrative, or other legal proceeding, or be construed as an admission of any liability or wrongdoing on the part of the Company or the other Released Parties of any violation of federal or state statutory or common law or regulation.
 
17.           If any portion of this Agreement is held to be invalid or legally unenforceable, such portion will be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law and the remaining portions of this agreement will not be affected and will be given full force and effect.
 
18.           This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes any and all prior oral or written agreements or understandings between the Employee and the Company concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be altered, amended or modified, except by a further written document signed by the Employee and an authorized officer of the Company. Nothing herein, however, shall alter, limit, or modify the Non-Competition Agreement, or Employee's non-disparagement obligations set forth in Paragraph 6(b) of the Employment Agreement and Paragraph 10 of this Agreement, and the Employee expressly acknowledges that the Non-Competition Agreement and Employee's non-disparagement obligation in Paragraph 6(b) of the Employment Agreement remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

22.           This Agreement is intended to comply with Code Section 409A or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and administered in accordance with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, payments provided under this Agreement may only be made upon an event and in a manner that complies with Code Section 409A or an applicable exemption. Any payments under this Agreement that may be excluded from Code Section 409A either as separation pay due to an involuntary separation from service or as a short-term deferral shall be excluded from Code Section 409A to the maximum extent possible. For purposes of Code Section 409A, each payment provided under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment.
 
23.            Buyer hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Employee each obligation of the Company under this Agreement. The liability of Buyer shall not be released or diminished by any arrangements or alterations of terms of this Agreement or any forbearance, compromise, neglect or delay in seeking performance of the obligations hereby imposed or any granting of time for such performance or the dissolution or insolvency or liquidation or any change in the status of the Company. Buyer hereby waives any rights which it may have to require Employee to proceed first against or claim payment from the Company. This guarantee is to be a continuing security to Employee. Buyer’s obligations under this Section 23 are primary obligations and not those of a mere surety. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, this provision 23 shall be of no force and effect unless the Merger is consummated.

Section 1.                       This Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock, to be designated, respectively, “ Common Stock ” and “ Preferred Stock .” The total number of shares of stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 100,000,000 shares, of which 90,000,000 shares are Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares are Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share.
 
Section 2.                       Each share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote. Each share of Common Stock shall be equal in all respects to every other share of Common Stock. Each holder of record of issued and outstanding Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote on all matters for each share so held. Subject to the rights and preferences, if any, of the holders of Preferred Stock, each issued and outstanding share of Common Stock shall entitle the record holder thereof to receive dividends and distributions out of funds legally available therefor, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, in such amounts and at such times, if any, as the Board of Directors shall determine, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Common Stock held by each such record holder. Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, after there shall have been paid to or set aside for the holders of any class of capital stock having preference over the Common Stock in such circumstances the full preferential amounts to which they are respectively entitled, the holders of the Common Stock, and of any class or series of capital stock entitled to participate in whole or in part therewith as to the distribution of assets, shall be entitled, after payment or provision for the payment of all debts and liabilities of the Corporation, to receive the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution, in cash or in kind, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Common Stock held by each such holder.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Section 3.                       The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series pursuant to a resolution or resolutions providing for such issue duly adopted by the Board of Directors (authority to do so being hereby expressly vested in the Board of Directors). The Board of Directors is further authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by law, to fix by resolution or resolutions the designations, powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock, including, without limitation, authority to fix by resolution or resolutions the dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, and liquidation preferences of any such series, and the number of shares constituting any such series and the designation thereof, or any of the foregoing. The Board of Directors is further authorized to increase (but not above the total number of authorized shares of the class) or decrease (but not below the number of shares of any such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series, the number of which was fixed by it, subject to the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof stated in this Certificate of Incorporation or the resolution of the Board of Directors originally fixing the number of shares of such series.
 
Section 4.                       The number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the Corporation entitled to vote, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL (or any successor provision thereto), voting together as a single class, without a separate vote of the holders of shares of the class or classes the number of authorized shares of which are being increased or decreased, unless a vote by any holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock is required by the express terms of any series of Preferred Stock as provided for or fixed pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 of this Article V (or any certificate of designation with respect thereto). Except as otherwise required by law or provided in this Section 4 , holders of Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of Preferred Stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together as a class with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon by law or pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of Preferred Stock).
 
ARTICLE VI
 
Subject to the rights of holders of Preferred Stock, the number of directors that constitutes the entire Board of Directors of the Corporation shall be fixed solely by resolution of the majority of the Whole Board. For purposes of this Certificate of Incorporation, the term “ Whole Board ” shall mean the total number of authorized directors whether or not there exist any vacancies in the previously authorized directorships. At each annual meeting of stockholders, directors of the Corporation shall be elected to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal; except that if any such meeting shall not be so held, such election shall take place at a stockholders’ meeting called and held in accordance with the DGCL or by written consent in lieu of an annual meeting pursuant to Section 211(b) of the DGCL and Article IX hereof.

A person so elected by the Board of Directors to fill a vacancy or newly created directorship shall hold office until the next election of the class for which such director shall have been chosen until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

Notwithstanding the above or any other provision of this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws of the Corporation may not be amended, altered or repealed except in accordance with Article X of the Bylaws.

ARTICLE IX
 
Section 1.                       Any action required or permitted to be taken at an annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by holders of record on the record date (established in the manner provided in Section 2 of this Article IX ) of outstanding shares of the Corporation having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted, but only if such action is taken in accordance with the provisions of this Article IX , the Bylaws of the Corporation and applicable law; provided , however , that in the case of the election or removal of directors by written consent, such consent shall be effective only if signed by the holders of all outstanding shares entitled to vote for the election of directors.
 
Section 2.                       In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. Any stockholder of record seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take corporate action by written consent shall, by written notice to the attention of the Secretary of the Corporation, request the Board of Directors to fix a record date. The Board of Directors shall promptly, but in all events within ten days after the date on which such a request is received, adopt a resolution fixing the record date (unless a record date has previously been fixed by the Board of Directors pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2 of Article IX ). If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors within ten days of the date on which such a request is received, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the date on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place (as opposed to solely by means of remote communication), then a list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be examined by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then a list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. The stock ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to the identity of the stockholders entitled to examine the stock list and vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them.
 
2.14     INSPECTORS OF ELECTION
 
Before any meeting of stockholders, the Board of Directors shall appoint an inspector or inspectors of election to act at the meeting or its adjournment.

Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath to execute faithfully the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspector or inspectors so appointed and designated shall (i) ascertain the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation outstanding and the voting power of each share, (ii) determine the shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (iii) count all votes and ballots, (iv) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors, and (v) certify their determination of the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and such inspector or inspectors’ count of all votes and ballots.
 
In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, the inspector or inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law. If there are three inspectors of election, the decision, act or certificate of a majority is effective in all respects as the decision, act or certificate of all.

A resignation which is conditioned upon the director failing to receive a specified vote for reelection as a director may provide that it is irrevocable. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, when one or more directors resign from the Board of Directors, effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have so resigned, shall have power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective.

7.2     NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION
 
Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders pursuant to the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:
 
(i)     the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent; and
 
(ii)     such inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.
 
However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.
 
Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:
 
(i)     if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;
 
(ii)     if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary or of the transfer agent or other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Corporation.

Schedule 2.7(b) - 19
 
 
 
7.4     NOTICE TO PERSON WITH WHOM COMMUNICATION IS UNLAWFUL
 
Whenever notice is required to be given, under the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, to any person with whom communication is unlawful, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required and there shall be no duty to apply to any governmental authority or agency for a license or permit to give such notice to such person. Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. In the event that the action taken by the Corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate under the DGCL, the certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such persons with whom communication is unlawful.

Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws.

If, at any time while this Note is outstanding a Change of Control occurs, then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Change of Control if it had been, immediately prior to such Change of Control, the holder of one (1) share of Common Stock (the “ Alternate Consideration ”). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of Common Stock in such Change of Control, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Change of Control, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Note following such Change of Control. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Change of Control shall issue to the Holder a new note consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to convert such note into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Change of Control is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 7.4 and insuring that this Note (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Change of Control.
 
7.5   Notices of Record Date, Etc . In the event of:
 
(a)   Any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities of the Company for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend payable out of earned surplus at the same rate as that of the last such cash dividend theretofore paid) or other distribution or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right; or
 
(b)   Any Change of Control; or
 
(c)   Any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company,
 
the Company will mail to the Holder at least ten (10) days prior to the earliest date specified therein, a notice specifying (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right; and (ii) the date on which any such Change of Control, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective and the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote thereon.
 
7.6   Reservation of Conversion Shares Issuable Upon Conversion . The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Conversion Shares for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note such number of its Conversion Shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of this Note; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued Conversion Shares shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of the entire outstanding principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, this Note, or if such conversion would result in the issuance of greater than 19.99% of the voting power or total outstanding shares of the Company prior to the Company obtaining stockholder approval, without limitation of such other remedies as shall be available to the Holder of this Note, the Company shall immediately take all actions necessary to (i) increase its authorized but unissued Conversion Shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, and/or (ii) seek approval from the Company’s stockholders to issue all Conversion Shares issuable under the Notes.
 
7.7   Issuance Limitations . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company may not issue upon conversion of this Note a number of shares of Common Stock which, when aggregated with all shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Notes, would exceed 19.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock on November 1, 2018 (subject to adjustment for forward and reverse stock splits, recapitalizations and the like) (such number of shares, the “ Maximum Issuable Conversion Shares ”), without first obtaining Shareholder Approval. Until such time as Shareholder Approval is obtained, each Holder shall be entitled to a portion of the Maximum Issuable Conversion Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the original principal amount of the Holder’s Note by (y) the aggregate original principal amount of all Notes issued to all Holders. In addition, the Holder acknowledges the Company may not issue, upon conversion of this Note, any number of shares of Common Stock, prior to filing an additional shares listing application with the Principal Market covering the Conversion Shares and obtaining approval of such additional shares listing application.

If a determination has been made pursuant to this Section 11 that the opinion of counsel for the Holder, or other evidence, is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Holder promptly after such determination has been made. Each Note thus transferred and each certificate representing the Conversion Shares thus transferred shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Securities Act, as applicable, unless in the opinion of counsel for the Company such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Securities Act. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions, if permitted in accordance with this Note. Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon the Note Register.

The Holder acknowledges and agrees that the payment of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note and all interest hereon shall be pari passu in right of payment and in all other respects to the other Notes issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement or pursuant to the terms of such Notes. In the event the Holder receives payments in excess of its pro rata share of the Company’s payments to the holders of all of the Notes, then the Holder shall hold in trust all such excess payments for the benefit of the holders of the other Notes and shall pay such amounts held in trust to such other holders upon demand by such holders.

In the event the number of shares available under any Registration Statement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered by such Registration Statement or a Purchaser’s allocated portion of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(f) , the Company shall amend such Registration Statement (if permissible), or file with the SEC a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover at least the Required Registration Amount as of the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the filing of such amendment or new Registration Statement, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after the necessity therefor arises (but taking account of any Staff position with respect to the date on which the Staff will permit such amendment to the Registration Statement and/or such new Registration Statement (as the case may be) to be filed with the SEC). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment to such Registration Statement and/or such new Registration Statement (as the case may be) to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof with the SEC.
 
(d)            Offering . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event the staff of the SEC (the “ Staff ”) or the SEC seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities by, or on behalf of, the Company, or in any other manner, such that the Staff or the SEC do not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and used for resales in a manner that does not constitute such an offering and that permits the continuous resale at the market by the Purchasers participating therein (or as otherwise may be acceptable to each Purchaser) without being named therein as an “underwriter,” then the Company shall remove from the Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities (the “ Cut Back Shares ”) to be included in such Registration Statement by all Purchasers until such time as the Staff and the SEC shall so permit such Registration Statement to become effective as aforesaid. In making such reduction, the Company shall remove from the Registration Statement the number of Registrable Securities to be included by all Purchasers on a pro rata basis (based upon the number of Registrable Securities otherwise required to be included for each Purchaser) unless the inclusion of the Registrable Securities by a particular Purchaser or a particular set of Purchasers are resulting in the Staff or the SEC’s “by or on behalf of the Company” offering position, in which event the Registrable Securities held by such Purchaser or set of Purchasers shall be the only Registrable Securities subject to reduction (and if by a set of Purchasers on a pro rata basis by such Purchasers or on such other basis as would result in the exclusion of the least number of Registrable Securities by all such Purchasers).  In addition, in the event that the Staff or the SEC requires any Purchaser seeking to sell securities under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement to be specifically identified as an “underwriter” in order to permit such Registration Statement to become effective, and such Purchaser does not consent to being so named as an underwriter in such Registration Statement, then, in each such case, the Company shall reduce the total number of Registrable Securities to be registered on behalf of such Purchaser, until such time as the Staff or the SEC does not require such identification or until such Purchaser accepts such identification and the manner thereof. Any reduction pursuant to this paragraph will first reduce all Registrable Securities other than those issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph, an affected Purchaser shall have the right to require, upon delivery of a written request to the Company signed by such Purchaser, the Company to file a registration statement within thirty (30) days of such request (subject to any restrictions imposed by Rule 415 or required by the Staff or the SEC) for resale by such Purchaser in a manner acceptable to such Purchaser, and the Company shall following such request cause to be and keep effective such registration statement in the same manner as otherwise contemplated in this Agreement for registration statements hereunder, in each case until such time as: (i) all Registrable Securities held by such Purchaser have been registered and sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement in a manner acceptable to such Purchaser or (ii) all Registrable Securities may be resold by such Purchaser without restriction (including, without limitation, volume limitations) pursuant to Rule 144 (taking account of any Staff position with respect to “affiliate” status) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) or (iii) such Purchaser agrees to be named as an underwriter in any such Registration Statement in a manner acceptable to such Purchaser as to all Registrable Securities held by such Purchaser and that have not theretofore been included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement (it being understood that the special demand right under this sentence may be exercised by a Purchaser multiple times and with respect to limited amounts of Registrable Securities in order to permit the resale thereof by such Purchaser as contemplated above).
 
 
 
 
(e)            Piggyback Registrations . Without limiting any obligation of the Company hereunder or under the Securities Purchase Agreement, if there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the Company’s stock option or other employee benefit plans), then the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen (15) days after the date of the delivery of such notice, any such Purchaser shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such Purchaser requests to be registered; provided , however , that the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2(e) that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 without restriction (including, without limitation, volume restrictions) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) or that are the subject of a then-effective Registration Statement.
 
(f)            Allocation of Registrable Securities . The initial number of Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement and any increase in the number of Registrable Securities included therein shall be allocated pro rata among the Purchasers based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each Purchaser at the time such Registration Statement covering such initial number of Registrable Securities or increase thereof is declared effective by the SEC. In the event that a Purchaser sells or otherwise transfers any of such Purchaser’s Registrable Securities, each transferee or assignee (as the case may be) that becomes a Purchaser shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the then-remaining number of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement for such transferor or assignee (as the case may be). Any shares of Common Stock included in a Registration Statement and which remain allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement shall be allocated to the remaining Purchasers, pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities then held by such Purchasers which are covered by such Registration Statement.
 
(g)            No Inclusion of Other Securities . In no event shall the Company include any securities other than Registrable Securities on any Registration Statement without the prior written consent of the Required Holders.
 
 
 
 
(h)            Shelf Registration Statement . Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth above in this Section 2 , in the event it is determined that the Company may effect registration of the Registrable Securities by filing a prospectus supplement (the “ Prospectus Supplement ”) to the Company’s shelf registration statement (Registration No. 333-220317) (the “ Shelf Registration Statement ”), the Company shall, in lieu of filing a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 2(b), file by no later than the Filing Deadline, a Prospectus Supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities.

(a)           The Company shall promptly prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to all the Registrable Securities (but in no event later than the applicable Filing Deadline) and use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts keep each Registration Statement effective (and the prospectus contained therein available for use) pursuant to Rule 415 for resales by the Purchasers on a delayed or continuous basis at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices) at all times until the earlier of (i) the date as of which all of the Purchasers may sell all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered by such Registration Statement (disregarding any reduction pursuant to Section 2(e) ) without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 (including, without limitation, volume restrictions) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable), or (ii) the date on which the Purchasers shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement (the “ Registration Period ”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall ensure that, when filed and at all times while effective, each Registration Statement (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) and the prospectus (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) used in connection with such Registration Statement (1) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading and (2) will disclose (whether directly or through incorporation by reference to other SEC filings to the extent permitted) all material information regarding the Company and its securities required to be disclosed under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (as defined below). The Company shall use its best efforts to submit to the SEC, within one (1) Business Day (but in any event no later than the second (2 nd ) Business Day), after the date that the Company learns that no review of a particular Registration Statement will be made by the Staff or that the Staff has no further comments on a particular Registration Statement (as the case may be), a request for acceleration of effectiveness of such Registration Statement to a time and date not later than twenty-four (24) hours after the submission of such request .
 
(b)           The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including , without limitation, post-effective amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with each such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep each such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period for such Registration Statement, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company required to be covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement; provided , however , that by 8:30 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately following each Effective Date, the Company shall file with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement (whether or not such a prospectus is technically required by such rule). In the case of amendments and supplements to any Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to this Section 3(b) ) by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”), the Company shall have incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the SEC on the same day on which the Exchange Act report is filed which created
 
 
 
 
 the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement.

The Company and each Purchaser acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that each party hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement by any other party hereto and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof (without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required), this being in addition to any other remedy to which any party may be entitled by law or equity.
 
(d)           All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Nevada, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Nevada or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Nevada. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Orange County, California, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

(e)           This Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto and thereto solely with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein and therein. This Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto solely with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided , however , that nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Purchaser has entered into with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Purchaser in the Company, (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any rights of or benefits to any Purchaser or any other Person in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and any Purchaser and all such agreements shall continue in full force and effect or (iii) limit any obligations of the Company under any of the other Transaction Agreements.
 
 
 
 
 
(f)           Subject to compliance with Section 9 (if applicable), this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the permitted successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto. This Agreement is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any Person, other than the parties hereto, their respective permitted successors and assigns and the Persons referred to in Sections 6 and 7 hereof.
 
(g)           The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.
 
(h)           This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.
 
(i)           Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
 
(j)           The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.
 
(k)           All consents and other determinations required to be made by the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement shall be made, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, by the Required Holders.
 
(l)           The obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Agreement, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as, and the Company acknowledges that the Purchasers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements or any matters, and the Company acknowledges that the Purchasers are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other the Transaction Agreements. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Agreements, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The use of a single agreement with respect to the obligations of the Company contained herein was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of any Purchaser, and was done solely for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Purchaser. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Agreement is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among Purchasers.

FORM OF NOTICE OF EFFECTIVENESS
 
OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Attention: _____________
 
Re:            
Inuvo, Inc.
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
 
[We are][I am] counsel to Inuvo, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), and have represented the Company in connection with that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “ Securities Purchase Agreement ”) entered into by and among the Company and the Purchasers named therein (collectively, the “ Holders ” or the “ Selling Shareholders ”) pursuant to which the Company issued to the Holders certain 10% senior unsecured subordinated convertible promissory notes (the “ Notes ”) convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “ Common Stock ”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Holders (the “ Registration Rights Agreement ”) pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of the Notes, which are defined as the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”). In connection with the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, on ____________ ___, 20__, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form [S-3] (File No. 333-_____________) (the “ Registration Statement ”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) relating to the Registrable Securities which names each of the Holders as a selling security holder thereunder.
 
The names of the Selling Stockholders to whom this opinion relates and the numbers of Shares that each Selling Stockholder may resell under the Registration Statement are set forth under the column “Shares to be Offered” in the section of the Registration Statement and Prospectus entitled “Selling Stockholders” in the column “Shares to be Offered Pursuant to the Registration Statement.” For purposes of this opinion, we have reviewed a copy of the Registration Statement and Prospectus, and such other and further information and documents as we have deemed advisable.
 
In connection with the foregoing, we have examined copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company, the securities described in the Registration Statement and such other agreements, instruments and documents as we have deemed relevant or necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth. In making such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on all original documents and the conformity to original documents of all copies submitted to us as conformed, photostat or other copies. As to matters of fact material to such opinions, we have, when relevant facts were not independently established, relied upon statements and certificates furnished to us.
 
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we render the following opinion:
 
1.             The Registration Statement has become effective under the Act, and to the best of our knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued, and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or threatened.
 
 
 
2.             Upon conversion of the Notes, the Shares are duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and not subject to the preemptive rights of any stockholder of the Company.
 
As with any selling stockholders’ registration statement, the Shares are restricted securities, but may be sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The normal restrictive legend appearing thereto may be removed following the sale of such securities or the placement in street name of the selling broker in contemplation of imminent sale with the understanding that, if the sale is not consummated, the certificates will be returned to you for relegending.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may in the future advise you as to certain institutional type investors or foreign investors from whose shares the restrictive legend may be removed prior to placement into street name based on their status.
 
Our opinion shall not apply to resales occurring during any period that we or the Company may advise you in writing that the Registration Statement is not current. In such event, no resales of Shares by Selling Stockholders shall be effected pursuant to our opinion until we confirm that our opinion may again be relied upon to effect resales by Selling Stockholders.
 
This opinion is rendered to Colonial Stock Transfer Co., Inc. and is not to be relied upon by any other person. We undertake no responsibility to update this information to reflect facts occurring after the date hereof.
 
 
Very truly yours,
 
[ISSUER’S COUNSEL]

EXHIBIT B
 
SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS
 
 
This prospectus covers the sale by the selling security holders of up to an aggregate of [________] shares of common stock, including an aggregate of [________] shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes. We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the selling security holders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of the Notes described below, the selling security holders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years except as disclosed under the heading “Our Relationships with the Selling Security Holders” below.
 
The table below lists the selling security holders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock held by each of the selling security holders. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling security holders, based on their respective ownership of shares of common stock, as of ________ __, 20__, assuming conversion of the Notes held by each selling security holder on that date and does not take into account of any limitations on conversion contained in the Notes. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes held by each selling security holder on _________ __, 20__ is the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes on _______ __, 20__.
 
The third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling security holders and does not take in account any limitations on issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Notes.
 
The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling security holders under this prospectus and does not take into account any limitations on issuance of common stock pursuant to the terms of the notes contained in the notes or the limitations on issuance of common stock upon exercise of the Warrants contained in the Warrants.
 
Under the terms of the Notes, a selling security holder may not convert the Notes to the extent (but only to the extent) the aggregate number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of all Notes issued by us would exceed 19.99% of our outstanding shares of common stock on November 1, 2018 without first obtaining shareholder approval. The number of shares in the second column and the fourth column does not reflect these limitations. The number of shares beneficially owned by each selling security holder taking into account these limitations, if such number is less than the number of shares set forth in the table, is set forth in the footnotes to the table below. The selling security holders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”
 
 
EXHIBIT C
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
We are registering the shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the conversion of the Notes to permit the resale of these shares of common stock by the holders of the Notes from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling security holders of the shares of common stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of common stock.
 
The selling security holders may sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock held by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of common stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the selling security holders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions. The shares of common stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions, pursuant to one or more of the following methods:
 
● 
on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;
 
● 
in the over-the-counter market;
 
● 
in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market;
 
 
through the writing or settlement of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;
 
 
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
 
 
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
 
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
 
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
 
privately negotiated transactions;
 
 
short sales made after the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC;
 
 
broker-dealers may agree with the selling securityholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
 
 
 
 
 
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
 
● 
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The selling security holders may also sell shares of common stock under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus. In addition, the selling security holders may transfer the shares of common stock by other means not described in this prospectus. If the selling security holders effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling security holders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). In connection with sales of the shares of common stock or otherwise, the selling security holders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling security holders may also sell shares of common stock short and deliver shares of common stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The selling security holders may also loan or pledge shares of common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares.
 
The selling security holders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the notes, warrants or shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling security holders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling security holders under this prospectus. The selling security holders also may transfer and donate the shares of common stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
 
To the extent required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, the selling security holders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular offering of the shares of common stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of common stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling security holders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to broker-dealers.
 
 
 
 
 
Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.
 
There can be no assurance that any selling security holder will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.
 
The selling security holders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock by the selling security holders and any other participating person. To the extent applicable, Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.
 
We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to the registration rights agreement, estimated to be $[     ] in total, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided , however , that a selling security holder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify the selling security holders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act in accordance with the registration rights agreements or the selling security holders will be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling security holders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling security holder specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related registration rights agreements or we may be entitled to contribution.
 
Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

Beneficial Ownership ” Securities are “beneficially owned” by an individual if such individual, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or other means, has or shares with others either (or both):
 
 
 
Voting power, that is, the power to vote, or to direct the vote, of the securities; and/or
 
 
 
Investment power, that is, the power to dispose, or to direct the disposition, of the securities.
 
Securities beneficially owned need not be registered in an individual’s name. For example, an individual would ordinarily be considered the beneficial owner of securities:
 
 
 
held in the name of family members, if such individual has the power to re-vest title in himself or herself or to dispose or direct the voting of the securities;
 
 
 
held for such individual in the names of nominees, such as brokers, or in “street name”;
 
 
 
held by a partnership of which such individual is a partner;
 
 
 
held by a corporation controlled by such individual; or
 
 
 
held by a trust of which such individual is a trustee.
 
 
 
 
On the other hand, securities would not be beneficially owned by an individual if such individual only has the right to receive dividends on, or the sale proceeds of, such securities, and does not have or share the power to vote or divest them. For example, a beneficiary of the income from securities held in a trust managed by independent trustees would not ordinarily be the beneficial owner of such securities.
An individual would also be considered the beneficial owner of securities on any date if he or she has the right to acquire beneficial ownership, as defined above, within 60 days of that date, including pursuant to the exercise of an option, warrant, or other right, through conversion of a security, or pursuant to the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account, or similar arrangement.
 
U.S. person . A “U.S. person” means:
 
(i)
any natural person resident in the United States;
 
 
(ii)
any partnership or corporation organized or incorporated under the laws of the United States;
 
 
(iii)
any estate of which any executor or administrator is a U.S. person;
 
 
(iv)
any trust of which any trustee is a U.S. person;
 
 
(v)
any agency or branch of a foreign entity located in the United States;
 
 
 
A- 7
 
 
(vi)
any non-discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary for the benefit or account of a U.S. person;
 
 
(vii)
any discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary organized, incorporated, or (if an individual) resident in the United States; and
 
 
(viii)
any partnership or corporation if:
 
 
 
(A)
organized or incorporated under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction; and
 
 
 
 
(B)
formed by a U.S. person principally for the purpose of investing in securities not registered under the Act, unless it is organized or incorporated, and owned, by accredited investors who are not natural persons, estates or trusts.
 
 
The following are not “U.S. persons”:
 
 
(i)
any discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held for the benefit or account of a non-U.S. person by a dealer or other professional fiduciary organized, incorporated, or (if an individual) resident in the United States;
 
 
(ii)
any estate of which any professional fiduciary acting as executor or administrator is a U.S. person if:
 
 
 
(A)
an executor or administrator of the estate who is not a U.S. person has sole or shared investment discretion with respect to the assets of the estate; and
 
 
 
 
(B)
the estate is governed by foreign law;
 
 
(iii)
any trust of which any professional fiduciary acting as trustee is a U.S. person, if a trustee who is not a U.S. person has sole or shared investment discretion with respect to the trust assets, and no beneficiary of the trust (and no settlor if the trust is revocable) is a U.S. person;
 
 
(iv)
an employee benefit plan established and administered in accordance with the law of a country other than the United States and customary practices and documentation of such country;
 
 
(v)
any agency or branch of a U.S. person located outside the United States if:
 
 
 
(A)
the agency or branch operates for valid business reasons; and
 
 
 
 
(B)
the agency or branch is engaged in the business of insurance or banking and is subject to substantive insurance or banking regulation, respectively, in the jurisdiction where located; and
 
 
(vi)
the International Monetary Fund, the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the Inter-American Development Bank, the Asian Development Bank, the African Development Bank, the United Nations, and their agencies, affiliates and pension plans, and any other similar international organizations, their agencies, affiliates and pension plans.
 
“United States” means the United States of America, its territories and possessions, any State of the United States, and the District of Columbia.

The Stockholder retains the authority to vote on all other matters.
 
(b)           At any meeting of the stockholders of Inuvo to which Section 1(a) above is applicable, the Stockholder shall, or shall direct the holder(s) of record of all of the Subject Shares on any applicable record date to, appear, in person or by proxy, at each meeting or otherwise cause all of the Subject Shares to be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum.

The Stockholder hereby ratifies and confirms all actions that the proxy appointed hereunder may lawfully do or cause to be done in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this proxy shall automatically be revoked on the Termination Date.

Assuming compliance with the matters referred to in Section 2(a) , neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance with the terms hereof, will (with or without notice or the passage of time or both) violate, conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) under the Stockholder’s organizational documents, if any, or under any Contract of, or Law applicable to, the Stockholder or to the Stockholder’s property or assets.

The Stockholder does not Beneficially Own or own of record any Company Shares other than the Existing Shares.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
 
1.            Agreement to Vote.
 
(a)           From the date hereof until the Termination Date in accordance with Section 8 (the “ Voting Period ”), at every meeting of the stockholders of Inuvo called with respect to any of the following, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of Inuvo with respect to any of the following, the Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to be present (in person or by proxy) and vote (or cause to be voted), or (with respect to any written consent solicitation) deliver (or cause to be delivered) a written consent with respect to, all of the Subject Shares (as defined below): (A) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Inuvo Merger, and any related proposal in furtherance thereof; (B) in favor of any proposal to adjourn or postpone the Inuvo Stockholders’ Meeting to a later date if there are not sufficient votes to adopt the Merger Agreement and/or if there are not sufficient shares present in person or by proxy at the Inuvo Stockholders’ Meeting to constitute a quorum; (C) in favor of any other matter necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and (D) against the following actions: (1) any merger, tender offer, exchange offer, sale of all or substantially all assets, recapitalization, reorganization, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction or series of transactions involving Inuvo, any of its Subsidiaries and any other Person (including any Inuvo Takover Proposal), other than the Mergers and (2) any other action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to impede, frustrate, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the Mergers or any other transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the consummation thereof. The Stockholder retains the authority to vote on all other matters.
 
(b)           At any meeting of the stockholders of Inuvo to which Section 1(a) above is applicable, the Stockholder shall, or shall direct the holder(s) of record of all of the Subject Shares on any applicable record date to, appear, in person or by proxy, at each meeting or otherwise cause all of the Subject Shares to be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum. The Stockholder shall provide CPT with at least five (5) Business Days’ written notice prior to signing any action proposed to be taken by written consent with respect to any Subject Shares.
 
(c)           Solely in the event of a failure by the Stockholder to act in accordance with its obligations pursuant to Section 1(a) and Section 1(b) of this Agreement, and except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to and appoints CPT (and any designee thereof) as the Stockholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place and stead of the Stockholder, to (i) represent the Subject Shares and (ii) vote, execute written consents and otherwise act (by voting at any meeting of stockholders of Inuvo or otherwise) with respect to the Subject Shares, in the case of each of clause (i) and clause (ii), regarding the matters referred to in Section 1(a) and Section 1(b) until, subject to Law, the Termination Date, to the same extent and with the same effect as the Stockholder could do under Law. The Stockholder intends the proxy granted pursuant to this Section 1(c) to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by the Stockholder with respect to the Subject Shares. The Stockholder hereby ratifies and confirms all actions that the proxy appointed hereunder may lawfully do or cause to be done in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this proxy shall automatically be revoked on the Termination Date. CPT may terminate this proxy with respect to the Stockholder at any time at its sole election by written notice provided to the Stockholder. The parties acknowledge and agree that neither CPT, nor any of its Affiliates, shall owe any duty (fiduciary or otherwise), or incur any liability of any kind to the Stockholder or any of its Affiliates, in connection with or as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to CPT by this Section 1(c) .
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(d)           The Stockholder shall use his, her, or its, reasonable best efforts to ensure that all Jointly Owned Shares are voted in accordance with this Agreement and are otherwise subject to its terms and restrictions, including but not limited to the restrictions set forth in Sections 4 and 5 .

Assuming compliance with the matters referred to in Section 2(a) , neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance with the terms hereof, will (with or without notice or the passage of time or both) violate, conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) under the Stockholder’s organizational documents, if any, or under any Contract of, or Law applicable to, the Stockholder or to the Stockholder’s property or assets.

(e)            Litigation . As of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, proceeding or investigation pending or threatened against the Stockholder or any of its Affiliates; or (ii) outstanding order to which the Stockholder or any of its Affiliates are subject or bound, in each case, that would reasonably be expected to or seeks to prevent, materially delay or materially impair the exercise by Parent of its rights under this Agreement or the performance by the Stockholder of its obligations under this Agreement.

(g)            Finders Fees . No broker, investment bank, financial advisor or other Person is entitled to any broker’s, finder’s, financial adviser’s or similar fee or commission in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of the Stockholder.
 
(h)            Stockholder Has Adequate Information . The Stockholder acknowledges that the Stockholder is a sophisticated investor with respect to the Subject Shares and has adequate information concerning the business and financial condition of CPT to make an informed decision regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and has, independently and without reliance upon any of Parent, CPT, CPT Merger Sub, Inuvo, and Inuvo Merger Sub, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, and based on such information as the Stockholder has deemed appropriate, made his or its own analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. The Stockholder acknowledges that none of Parent, CPT, CPT Merger Sub, Inuvo, or Inuvo Merger Sub or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing has made or is making any representation or warranty, whether express or implied, of any kind or character except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Stockholder acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to seek independent legal advice prior to executing this Agreement.

Other than as provided in the Merger Agreement and any filings by Parent, CPT, CPT Merger Sub, Inuvo and Inuvo Merger Sub with the SEC, the execution, delivery and performance by Parent, CPT, CPT Merger Sub, Inuvo and Inuvo Merger Sub of this Agreement does not require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, action by, filing with or notification to any Governmental Entity, other than any consent, approval, authorization, permit, action, filing or notification the failure of which to make or obtain would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Mergers.

(b)           At any meeting of the stockholders of Inuvo to which Section 1(a) above is applicable, the Stockholder shall, or shall direct the holder(s) of record of all of the Subject Shares on any applicable record date to, appear, in person or by proxy, at each meeting or otherwise cause all of the Subject Shares to be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum. The Stockholder shall provide CPT with at least five (5) Business Days’ written notice prior to signing any action proposed to be taken by written consent with respect to any Subject Shares.

(a)            Authority . The Stockholder has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Stockholder and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Stockholder enforceable against the Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally and the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a Proceeding in equity or at Law).

(b)            No Conflicts . Assuming compliance with the matters referred to in Section 2(a) , neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance with the terms hereof, will (with or without notice or the passage of time or both) violate, conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) under the Stockholder’s organizational documents, if any, or under any Contract of, or Law applicable to, the Stockholder or to the Stockholder’s property or assets.

The Stockholder does not Beneficially Own or own of record any Company Shares other than the Existing Shares.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
 
1.            Agreement to Vote.
 
(a)           From the date hereof until the Termination Date in accordance with Section 8 (the “ Voting Period ”), at every meeting of the stockholders of Inuvo called with respect to any of the following, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of Inuvo with respect to any of the following, the Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to be present (in person or by proxy) and vote (or cause to be voted), or (with respect to any written consent solicitation) deliver (or cause to be delivered) a written consent with respect to, all of the Subject Shares (as defined below): (A) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Inuvo Merger, and any related proposal in furtherance thereof; (B) in favor of any proposal to adjourn or postpone the Inuvo Stockholders’ Meeting to a later date if there are not sufficient votes to adopt the Merger Agreement and/or if there are not sufficient shares present in person or by proxy at the Inuvo Stockholders’ Meeting to constitute a quorum; (C) in favor of any other matter necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and (D) against the following actions: (1) any merger, tender offer, exchange offer, sale of all or substantially all assets, recapitalization, reorganization, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction or series of transactions involving Inuvo, any of its Subsidiaries and any other Person (including any Inuvo Takover Proposal), other than the Mergers and (2) any other action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to impede, frustrate, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the Mergers or any other transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the consummation thereof. The Stockholder retains the authority to vote on all other matters.
 
(b)           At any meeting of the stockholders of Inuvo to which Section 1(a) above is applicable, the Stockholder shall, or shall direct the holder(s) of record of all of the Subject Shares on any applicable record date to, appear, in person or by proxy, at each meeting or otherwise cause all of the Subject Shares to be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum. The Stockholder shall provide CPT with at least five (5) Business Days’ written notice prior to signing any action proposed to be taken by written consent with respect to any Subject Shares.
 
(c)           Solely in the event of a failure by the Stockholder to act in accordance with its obligations pursuant to Section 1(a) and Section 1(b) of this Agreement, and except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to and appoints CPT (and any designee thereof) as the Stockholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place and stead of the Stockholder, to (i) represent the Subject Shares and (ii) vote, execute written consents and otherwise act (by voting at any meeting of stockholders of Inuvo or otherwise) with respect to the Subject Shares, in the case of each of clause (i) and clause (ii), regarding the matters referred to in Section 1(a) and Section 1(b) until, subject to Law, the Termination Date, to the same extent and with the same effect as the Stockholder could do under Law. The Stockholder intends the proxy granted pursuant to this Section 1(c) to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by the Stockholder with respect to the Subject Shares. The Stockholder hereby ratifies and confirms all actions that the proxy appointed hereunder may lawfully do or cause to be done in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this proxy shall automatically be revoked on the Termination Date. CPT may terminate this proxy with respect to the Stockholder at any time at its sole election by written notice provided to the Stockholder. The parties acknowledge and agree that neither CPT, nor any of its Affiliates, shall owe any duty (fiduciary or otherwise), or incur any liability of any kind to the Stockholder or any of its Affiliates, in connection with or as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to CPT by this Section 1(c) .

This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Stockholder and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Stockholder enforceable against the Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally and the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a Proceeding in equity or at Law).

(b)            No Conflicts . Assuming compliance with the matters referred to in Section 2(a) , neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance with the terms hereof, will (with or without notice or the passage of time or both) violate, conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) under the Stockholder’s organizational documents, if any, or under any Contract of, or Law applicable to, the Stockholder or to the Stockholder’s property or assets.

The Stockholder does not Beneficially Own or own of record any Company Shares other than the Existing Shares.

(NYSE American: INUV), a provider of artificial intelligence (AI) technology for brands and agencies , today announced that it has entered into a   definitive agreement to be acquired by ConversionPoint Technologies , Inc. , a privately held eCommerce technology company.

Strategic Rationale for the Acquisition
 
ConversionPoint is acquiring Inuvo for its patented, AI-driven consumer behavior technology, which leverages machine learning to mirror the way the human brain instantly associates ideas, emotions, places, people and objects. The combined solution is expected to offer large and small businesses a new way to compete more effectively, increase online sales, achieve higher media spend ROI and improve customer lifecycle engagement. This AI powered platform is expected to create a competitive eCommerce solution for major non-Amazon channels, such as Shopify, Big Commerce, and Walmart.com.
 
“Amazon controls nearly half of the $450 million in online retail sales in the U.S. thanks to their proprietary data-driven approach to consumer analysis and marketing,“ explained ConversionPoint CEO, Robert Tallack. “Online retailers and brands have been searching for an end-to-end data driven technology to help provide accurate information they can use to acquire customers. We believe that together our end-to-end, AI powered, eCommerce platform can offer those capabilities to the online retail channel and the direct channel that the market has been actively searching for.”
 
ConversionPoint’s current customers include major brands like Canon, Logitech and Nikon, and its technology has been integrated onto online retailer sites like walmart.com and officedepot.com . Current ConversionPoint shareholders include Menlo Ventures, Granite Ventures and IBM. The company w as recently named #93 (software) on the 2018 Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing companies in the U. S. with audited revenues of $49.9 million in 2017.
 
 
 
 
According to the CEO of Inuvo, Rich Howe: “With our combined technologies, data sources and industry partners, we will be able to offer an even greater level of eCommerce transparency and sophistication across small, medium and large business segments. We see this combination allowing us to pursue a shared vision of providing more powerful solutions for eCommerce.”
 
ConversionPoint enhances consumer product experiences, optimizes media spend, enables upsell, and manages fulfillment and retargeting. Inuvo has the industry’s most capable technology for identifying and analyzing consumer behavioral data, along with direct access to advertising inventory from large media and technology partners.

According to Trey Barrett, COO of Inuvo: “We have identified a number of specific near-term opportunities, including upselling Inuvo’s high-margin AI powered IntentKey media to ConversionPoint’s existing enterprise customers and online retail partners.
