Exhibit Consignment Agreement

This CONSIGNMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into between EXHIBITTRADER.COM, Inc. ("COMPANY," "we," "us") and the company named below and its responsible agents ("EXHIBIT OWNER," "you"). The exhibit(s), accessory(ies), or other property to be listed by COMPANY for EXHIBIT OWNER on COMPANY's Website (the homepage of which may be found at http://www.exhibittrader.com is hereinafter referred to as "PROPERTY."

1. SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

A. PRIMARY OBLIGATIONS
In consideration for the mutual covenants set forth in this Agreement, COMPANY hereby agrees to provide a classified listing to market the PROPERTY(the "Listing") on COMPANY's Website, and EXHIBIT OWNER hereby agrees to pay a commission to COMPANY upon the sale of PROPERTY, as detailed below. At no time shall COMPANY take possession of or have any responsibility for PROPERTY.

B. RELATIONSHIP
Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to create a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship between COMPANY and EXHIBIT OWNER. As between EXHIBIT OWNER and COMPANY, EXHIBIT OWNER and not COMPANY shall be responsible for any taxes relating to PROPERTY or transfer of rights to PROPERTY. EXHIBIT OWNER is experienced in business transactions and is not relying upon COMPANY for guidance relating to this Agreement.

2. TERMS OF USE
EXHIBIT OWNER agrees to be bound by the terms of the user agreement titled "Terms of Use" found on COMPANY'S Website as of the date of this Agreement and as amended according to the procedures described therein (including the Privacy Policy and other agreements incorporated therein); the terms thereof are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement. The definitions of terms used in this Agreement, if not defined herein, may be given in the Terms of Use.

3. TERM OF AGREEMENT

A. TWELVE (12) MONTH LISTING PERIOD
The Listing for PROPERTY will begin upon COMPANY'S receipt of a copy of this Agreement executed by EXHIBIT OWNER and shall remain in force for twelve (12) months following that date, and the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in force for an additional eighteen (18) months following the expiration or other termination of the Listing. Nevertheless, either party to this Agreement may elect to terminate the Listing at any time and for any reason, by giving the other party thirty (30) days' written notice, sent by confirmed personal delivery or certified U.S. mail to other party at the appropriate address indicated below.

B. EARLY TERMINATION
i. Notwithstanding the thirty (30) day termination notice stated above, this Agreement may be terminated immediately by either party for "good cause," which may include any of the following:
a. either party engages in any act that may injure the other party or the other party's reputation;
b. either party violates the Terms of Use or otherwise violates the terms of this Agreement; or
c. unlawful, fraudulent, or deceptive acts or practices, or criminal misconduct, by EXHIBIT OWNER or any principal owner, director, or employee of EXHIBIT OWNER that is relevant to EXHIBIT OWNER's performance.
ii. Regardless of the timing or circumstances of termination of this Agreement, EXHIBIT OWNER shall pay to COMPANY any amount that is due to COMPANY under this Agreement as of the date of termination within thirty (30) days of notice of termination, or in relation to any amount owing under this Agreement that accrues following the date of notice of termination, within ten (10) days of the accrual of such payment obligation.

4. COMPENSATION

A. For any sale of PROPERTY to an Inquirer during the term of the Listing (or eighteen (18) months thereafter), EXHIBIT OWNER shall pay COMPANY fifteen percent (15%) of all monies received from such transaction (the "Fee") within thirty (30) days of the sale of PROPERTY. For the sake of clarity, if EXHIBIT OWNER receives an inquiry through COMPANY's Website or Service, or COMPANY directly or indirectly introduces EXHIBIT OWNER to a potential buyer, or a potential buyer's group, company, or associate(s) (any or all of those herein called "Inquirer") before that Inquirer makes other inquiry relating to PROPERTY, and a sale of PROPERTY to any such Inquirer during the term of the Listing or the following eighteen (18) months occurs, EXHIBIT OWNER shall pay all fees and amounts due COMPANY according to this Agreement. If COMPANY discovers EXHIBIT OWNER has sold PROPERTY to an Inquirer during the term of this Agreement (or the eighteen(18) months thereafter), and EXHIBIT OWNER has neglected to inform COMPANY of the relevant details of such transaction or to fully and promptly respond to COMPANY's request for information regarding the actual transaction(s), then the Fee will be based on the price of PROPERTY in the Listing at the time of inquiry. If EXHIBIT OWNER disputes the timing of any inquiry through the Website or otherwise, COMPANY may offer proof of time of inquiry or introduction including timestamped web logs or emails with time-stamped and dated email, and it will be the responsibility of EXHIBIT OWNER to provide like information upon COMPANY's request that proves that payment of compensation due to COMPANY under this Agreement is not warranted. Failure to promptly provide COMPANY the requested information will result in COMPANY finalizing the Fee (as defined below) owed by EXHIBIT OWNER based on the price of PROPERTY in the Listing at the time the alleged transaction or introduction was made.

B. COMPANY will initially list PROPERTY on its Website with price as specified by EXHIBIT OWNER. EXHIBIT OWNER will have ultimate control over the sales price of PROPERTY, and COMPANY will alter the price or marketing information relating to the Listing only upon receipt of written authorization from EXHIBIT OWNER, or in its discretion in order to avoid potential liability relating to the Listing or otherwise (including to enhance the technical viewability of PROPERTY).

C. The Fee will be calculated based on the final agreed-upon price accepted by EXHIBIT OWNER for PROPERTY, subject to the provisions herein.

D. Any barter- or trade-type payment for PROPERTY accepted by EXHIBIT OWNER in lieu of monies will be considered a final transaction under this Agreement, and the price for PROPERTY posted in the Listing at the time that the buyer's initial inquiry relating to PROPERTY was logged on COMPANY's Website will be the price used for determining the Fee.

E. If a PROPERTY is listed by EXHIBIT OWNER for sale by COMPANY, but a determination is made offline between an "Inquirer" provided through COMPANY's website and EXHIBIT OWNER to either rent said PROPERTY in lieu of purchase (or) substitute the advertised PROPERTY for another PROPERTY for sale or rent by EXHIBIT OWNER that is not shown on COMPANY's website but introduced to "Inquirer" by EXHIBIT OWNER whom was delivered to EXHIBIT OWNER through the COMPANY's website, then EXHIBIT OWNER shall pay COMPANY fifteen percent (15%) of actual sale or rental price paid to EXHIBIT OWNER as shown on EXHIBIT OWNERS final invoice to the "Inquirer". EXHIBIT OWNER agrees to provide COMPANY a copy of final invoice(s) to "Inquirer" for any such transaction(s) upon request made by COMPANY for purposes of clarification and preparation of final invoice between COMPANY and EXHIBIT OWNER.

F. If a listed PROPERTY or any type of substituted PROPERTY as described above in paragraph E. is sold by EXHIBIT OWNER to an "Inquirer" delivered through the COMPANY's website and is paid for, and if for any reason results in the "Inquirer" rejecting such PROPERTY due to EXHIBIT OWNERS PROPERTY situation(s) or representations and/or "Inquirers" situation(s) or representation(s), the return of said PPOPERTY and refund of any monies for said PROPERTY are the sole responsibility between the EXHIBIT OWNER and the "Inquirer". The return of said PROPERTY or refund of monies between EXHIBIT OWNER and "Inquirer" shall in no way constitute a refund due to EXHIBIT OWNER from the COMPANY for its commissions on the transaction. The COMPANY at its sole discretion will determine if a refund or credit shall be provided or issued to EXHIBIT OWNER.

G. If payment to COMPANY by or on behalf of EXHIBIT OWNER is made or to be made by credit card, or similar payment process, amounts COMPANY is authorized to charge using that method of payment may be increased by 3.99%, and EXHIBIT OWNER hereby consents to such processing fee in addition to the other fees described herein. COMPANY's charging of any amounts using such payment method shall not relieve EXHIBIT OWNER of any liability for such amounts unless COMPANY actually receives payment from the card's issuer or other payment processor, so that if a charge is
declined (for example), COMPANY may continue to bill and collect sums owed to COMPANY by EXHIBIT OWNER using any legal means.

H. If payment to COMPANY is made by or on behalf of EXHIBIT OWNER by check or similar bank draft, and payment on such check or draft is declined, COMPANY reserves the right to charge EXHIBIT OWNER a fee of thirty dollars ($30) or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is greater, in addition to any other amounts due under this Agreement. In addition, any delay in any payment due to COMPANY shall accrue interest at the highest legal rate applicable to transactions of this type, and COMPANY shall be entitled to charge EXHIBIT OWNER for any costs incurred relating to collection of amounts past due under this Agreement.

I. If this Agreement is terminated by EXHIBIT OWNER other than as provided for in the LIMITED AND EXCLUSIVE REFUND POLICY FOR Sellers ONLY section of the Terms of Use, EXHIBIT OWNER shall owe COMPANY a processing fee of $25.00 US.

5. NON-EXCLUSIVITY & PRICE PARITY
COMPANY does not require exclusive listing of PROPERTY; COMPANY relies on its ability to outperform other means EXHIBIT OWNER may use to market PROPERTY. As part of this non-exclusive agreement, EXHIBIT OWNER must match the lowest price for PROPERTY listed or promoted elsewhere. If PROPERTY is listed elsewhere, EXHIBIT OWNER must notify COMPANY of the names and website addresses of the other sellers. If non-price parity is discovered and the listed price of PROPERTY is found advertised elsewhere at a lower price than offered on Company's website, the COMPANY has the right per this clause to adjust the advertised price on the website to match the price found elsewhere without any further written notice to EXHIBIT OWNER and/or at its sole discretion can terminate the PROPERTY listing without notice to the EXHIBIT OWNER.

6. PUBLICITY
You hereby grant COMPANY the right to announce the relationship set forth in this Agreement in a list of clients, press release, or similar public announcement without further approval from you and to reproduce any correspondence between you and COMPANY regarding your relationship with us in the form of a case study, testimonial, etc. ("Testimonial").
