<div align="justify" style="text-indent: 0pt; display: block; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt;"><font style="display: inline; font-family: times new roman; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></div>
<div align="justify" style="text-indent: 0pt; display: block; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt;"><font style="display: inline; font-family: times new roman; font-size: 10pt;">On March 3, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), GEM entered into a Commitment Letter (the “Commitment Letter”) with Financial Partners Funding, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“FPF”). Pursuant to the Commitment Letter, FPF agreed to commit up to $200,000,000 in equipment leases to finance third-party purchases of GEM’s lighting and Airlock products, subject to certain funding conditions, including FPF’s due diligence and approval of the third party lessees. FPF has an exclusive right to finance such third-party purchases of GEM’s products, however, GEM has the right to hold discussions with third-party financing entities. In the event that GEM is offered financing on better terms than those offered by FPF, FPF has the right of first refusal to offer financing on similar terms. FPF has no obligation to finance any particular transaction or proposed lease. GEM also agreed to reimburse FPF $50,000 in costs and expenses incurred by FPF in connection with its due diligence review of GEM’s products, which amount will be paid from the proceeds of the first lease financed by FPF. The Commitment Letter will remain in effect for 48 months from the Effective Date, unless terminated earlier pursuant to its terms.</font></div><div align="justify" style="text-indent: 0pt; display: block; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt;"><font style="display: inline; font-family: times new roman; font-size: 10pt;"> </font></div>
<div align="justify" style="text-indent: 0pt; display: block; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt;"><font style="display: inline; font-family: times new roman; font-size: 10pt;">As required under the Commitment Letter, on June 27, 2011, we issued to FPF an option, dated as of March 3, 2011, which upon exercise, entitles FPF to purchase up to 15% of our then outstanding common stock (the “Option”) at an aggregate exercise price of $10,949,490 (the “Option Price”).   The Option may be exercised in part or in full at any time during the 48-month period commencing on the Effective Date and the Option Price will be adjusted proportionately for any partial exercise of the Option.  The Option may also be exercised on a cashless basis. Pursuant to the terms of the Commitment Letter, in the event that the Commitment Letter is terminated or GEM meets the funding threshold described in the Commitment Letter and FPF does not fund the qualified projects, FPF agreed to return all or a portion of the Option that FPF would not be entitled to exercise as a result of such termination or failure to fund.  The Option does not grant FPF any voting rights or other rights as our stockholder until the Option is exercised, and upon exercise, only for such exercised portion of the Option.  The Option vested immediately as of the Effective Date.</font></div><div style="text-indent: 0pt; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt;" >

<div align="justify" style="text-indent: 0pt; display: block; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt;"><font style="display: inline; font-family: times new roman; font-size: 10pt;">As of June 30, 2013, FPF had the right to exercise the Option to purchase 7,834,896 shares of our common stock, assuming 100% of the Option was exercised. We reported $0 in Option-based compensation expenses for consultants for each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.  </font></div>

<div align="justify" style="text-indent: 0pt; display: block; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt;"><font style="display: inline; font-family: times new roman; font-size: 10pt;">Because the Option was fully vested and non-forfeitable at the time of grant, the fair value of the Option was measured and expensed on the date of grant pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 505, subtopic 50,<font style="font-style: italic; display: inline;"> Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees</font> (formerly Emerging Issues Task Force No. 96-18,<font style="font-style: italic; display: inline;"> Accounting for </font><font style="font-style: italic; display: inline;">Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services</font>).</font></div>
