This AMENDMENT TO SERVICES AGREEMENT is entered into this 26th day of July, 2004, between NuVim, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Client”), and Olive Enterprises, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (“Olive”), which is furnishing the services of Dick Clark (“Clark”), and amends that certain Agreement with NuVim, Inc. entered into February 20, 2000 (the “Original Services Agreement”), as amended by that certain letter agreement dated November 3, 2003.
Definitions. To the extent used but not defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Original Services Agreement.
Client hereby acknowledges and confirms that it currently owes Clark $175,000 in fees.
Client and Clark acknowledge that the options referenced in Section 8C of the Original Services Agreement have not been issued to Clark, and agree that upon an initial public offering of the Client’s common stock, the obligation of Client to issue such options shall be void.
Client acknowledges that the financing referenced in the November 3, 2003 letter has not been achieved, and that Clark has not received the shares contemplated in that letter agreement.
Client hereby agrees that those shares of common stock in Client that have been issued to Clark through the date hereof are not subject to forfeiture.
In consideration of Clark’s agreement to waive his right to receive payment of the fees until the earliest to occur of: (a) January 1, 2005; (b) the consummation of an initial public offering of the stock of the Company (an “IPO”); (c) an affirmative determination by Client not to pursue an IPO; (d) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (e) a sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of Client’s stock; or (f) the merger or consolidation of Client (“Maturity Date”, each of (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f), a “Maturity Event”), and agreeing to Client hereby agrees to issue to Clark a convertible note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
Section 8 of the Original Services Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety, and replaced with the following:
Stock delivered to Clark upon the conversion of the convertible note will be forfeited to Client if Client decides to cease operations of its business, or upon notification by Clark that he will no longer provide services to Client, or if he violates the behavior or reputation obligations set forth in Section 13 of this Agreement, or if it determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an arbitrator as provided herein that Clark has not fully performed all Services required of him by this Agreement on or prior to January 30, 2006.
