CONVERSION AGREEMENT


 


THIS CONVERSION AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the Effective Date (as defined hereinbelow) by and among LightPath
Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the undersigned holder(s) (each, a “Holder”
and, collectively, the “Holders”) of the Company’s 8% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures Due August
1, 2013 (each a “Debenture”, and collectively, the “Debentures”).


 


WHEREAS, each Holder
desires to convert one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding principal amount of such Holder’s Debenture, as set forth
on such Holder’s Notice of Conversion delivered in connection herewith, into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the
terms and procedures set forth in the Debentures (the “Conversion”).


 


WHEREAS, in addition
to the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the terms of each Debenture upon the Conversion, the Company desires to issue
to each Holder an additional number of shares of Common Stock determined in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth
herein (the “Incentive Shares”).


 


WHEREAS, the parties
hereto desire to authorize and consent to the Conversion and the issuance of the Incentive Shares (collectively, the “Transactions”).


 


NOW THEREFORE, for
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:


 


1.Recitals. The above recitals,
definitions, preamble and provisions are hereby made a part of this Agreement.


 


2.Capitalized Terms. Capitalized
terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the applicable Debenture.


 


3. Waiver of Restriction on
Conversion. The parties acknowledge that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in Section 4(c) of the Debenture held by Berg
& Berg Enterprises, LLC (collectively with its affiliates, “BBE”) would prohibit the consummation of the
Conversion by such Holder. In order to permit the Conversion by BBE, the undersigned hereby consent to the Conversion by BBE and
waive the requirements and restrictions contained in Section 4(c) of BBE’s Debenture such that the Conversion shall be permitted
notwithstanding Section 4(c) of such Debenture, provided that in no event shall the beneficial ownership of BBE exceed 19.9% of
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the shares of Common Stock issued in the Transactions.


 


4.Waiver of Pro-Rata Payment
of Optional Redemption in Cash. The Optional Redemption provision contained in Section 6(a) and (b) in each of the Debentures
provides that the Company’s determination to pay an Optional Redemption in cash shall be applied ratably to all of the Holders
of the then outstanding Debentures based on their (or their predecessor’s) initial purchases of Debentures pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement. The parties acknowledge that in lieu of entering into the Transactions, some holders may elect to not participate
in the Transactions and instead permit the Company to pay an Optional Redemption in cash, redeeming all of such holder’s
then outstanding principal amount due on such Debenture. The parties further acknowledge that in the event that the Transactions
would result in BBE beneficially owning more than 19.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving
effect to the shares of Common Stock issued in the Transactions, BBE shall only be permitted to convert a portion of its Debenture
into shares of Common Stock as to ensure compliance with Section 3 hereof and the Company, at its election, shall be permitted
to pay in cash the outstanding principal amount due on BBE’s Debenture after such partial Conversion. The undersigned Holders
hereby consent to the foregoing and waive the requirements contained in Section 6(a) and (b) of each Debenture requiring pro rata
application to all Holders of any such payment in cash.


 






    	 



    	 



    

 


5.Conversion. Contemporaneously
with the execution of this Agreement, the Holders shall deliver to the Company a Notice of Conversion substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A, indicating the Holder’s desire to convert his, her or its Debenture in accordance with
Section 4 of each Debenture.


 


6.Issuance of Incentive Shares.
In connection with the Conversion, the Company shall issue to each Holder Incentive Shares, the number of which shall be determined
for each Holder as follows: the difference between (i) the number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the terms of each
such Holder’s Debenture and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable if the conversion price set
forth in each such Holder’s Debenture was equal to the closing bid price per share of Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq
Capital Market in the normal trading session immediately preceding the time at which the Conversion is effected. The Incentive
Shares shall not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or any state securities
laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (a) subsequently registered thereunder, (b) such Holder
shall have delivered to the Company (if requested by the Company) an opinion of counsel to such Holder, in a form reasonably acceptable
to the Company, to the effect that such Incentive Shares to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or transferred
pursuant to an exemption from such registration, or (c) such Holder provides the Company with reasonable assurance that such Incentive
Shares can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A promulgated under the Act (or a successor rule thereto).


 


7.Date of Transactions.
The Transactions will be effected on the date this Agreement is executed by the Company (the “Effective Date”).


 


8.Counterparts. This Agreement
may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
shall constitute together but one and the same agreement. Delivery of executed counterparts of this Agreement electronically (by
email or telecopy) shall be effective as an original and shall constitute a representation that an original will be delivered.


 


9.Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT
SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO
THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.


 


10.Successors and Assigns.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
