EXHIBIT 2
PROXY
AND POWER OF ATTORNEY
By its execution hereof, the undersigned limited partner (the “Limited Partner”) of Coconut Palm Capital Investors II, Ltd., a Florida limited partnership (the “Partnership”) hereby constitutes and appoints Coconut Palm Capital Investors II, Inc., and any of its nominees designated in writing (the “Proxy Holder”), with full power of substitution and resubstitution, as such Limited Partner’s true and lawful attorney and proxy, for and in such Limited Partner’s name, place and stead, to vote each and all of the securities of Sunair Services Corporation, a Florida corporation (“Sunair”), owned by the Limited Partner, as set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “Securities”), at every meeting of the shareholders of Sunair, and to execute on behalf of such Limited Partner, or to instruct the record holder to execute, any ballot, proxy, consent, certificate or other document relating to the Proxy Holder that law permits or requires with respect to any matters involving or related to Sunair, in such Proxy Holder’s sole discretion.
This Proxy and Power of Attorney (“Proxy”), effective as the date hereof, is granted in connection with the redemption of the Limited Partner’s partnership interests in the Partnership, is coupled with an interest, and shall be irrevocable to the extent permitted by law until the Expiration Date (as defined below).
The Limited Partner hereby grants and gives the Proxy Holder full authority and power to do and perform any and all other acts necessary or incident to the performance and execution of the power the Limited Partner has expressly granted, with power to do and perform all acts authorized hereby, as fully to all intents and purposes as the Limited Partner might or could do if personally present.
The Limited Partner hereby ratifies and confirms all acts whatsoever that the Proxy Holder, as the Limited Partner’s agent, shall or may do by virtue of this Proxy.
In addition, the Limited Partner shall perform such further acts and execute such further documents and instruments as may reasonably be required to vest in Proxy Holder, or its nominees, the power to carry out and give effect to the provisions of this Proxy.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Proxy shall automatically terminate (the “Expiration Date”) as of the earlier to occur of the following: (i) upon the execution of a written agreement by the Limited Partner, Partnership and Proxy Holder; or (ii) such date and time as the Limited Partner shall Transfer (as defined below) the Securities to any third party, or any ownership interest in the Securities to any third party; provided, however, if the Limited Partner Transfers some, but not all, of the Securities, then this Proxy shall terminate solely with respect to the Transferred Securities and shall remain valid and enforceable with respect to any remaining Securities owned by the Limited Partner.
For purposes of this Proxy, the Limited Partner shall be deemed to have effected a “Transfer” of a Security if such Limited Partner, directly or indirectly: (i) sells, offers to sell, enters into any type of equity swap, transfers or disposes of such Security, any interest therein, or the economic consequences of ownership of such Security or (ii) enters into an agreement, contract or commitment providing for the foregoing; provided, however, the Limited Partner shall not deposit (or permit the deposit of) any Securities in a voting trust or grant any proxy, or enter into any voting agreement or similar agreement or arrangement in contravention of the obligations of the Limited Partner under this Proxy. For purposes of this Proxy, a Transfer shall not include any Transfer of Securities: (i) to any member of the Limited Partner’s immediate family; (ii) to any entity controlled by the Limited Partner or any member of the Limited Partner’s immediate family; (iii) to a trust for the benefit of the Limited Partner or any member of the Limited Partner’s immediate family; or (iv) upon the death of the Limited Partner (each a “Related Party Transfer”). In the event the Limited Partner intends to effectuate any Related Party Transfer, the intended transferee of the Securities shall duly execute a counterpart of this Proxy, and shall agree in writing to hold such Securities, or such interest therein, subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Proxy. The Limited Partner hereby represents and agrees to those persons dealing with the Proxy Holder that this Proxy will not terminate upon the Limited Partner’s death, disability or incompetence.

The Limited Partner hereby agrees to provide written notice of any Transfer of Securities to the Partnership and the Proxy Holder within five (5) business days following such Transfer. Until such time as the Partnership and the Proxy Holder have received such notice, the Partnership and the Proxy Holder shall be entitled to rely on this Proxy.
This Proxy shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Proxy and Power of Attorney, effective as of the date first set forth above.
