NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations and

Lock-Up. Bay Harbor agrees that, except as provided

will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, contract to
sell (including any short sale), grant any option to purchase or
otherwise dispose of (each, a “Disposition”) any of the
Shares for a period of one (1) year from the date of issuance and
thereafter according to the Schedule below (the “Lock-Up
Period”). The foregoing restriction, which is
expressly intended to preclude Bay Harbor from engaging in any

the Company is the surviving entity but the shares of the
Company’s Common Stock outstanding immediately preceding the
merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property,
whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, and in which
the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger
own less than fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s voting
power immediately after the transaction; (d) any other capital
reorganization in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the shares
of the Company entitled to vote are exchanged. Share
