to, among other documents, an Amended and Restated Business Financing Agreement,
dated April 4, 2011 by and between Borrower and Lender, as may be amended from
time to time (the “Business Financing Agreement”). Capitalized terms used without definition herein shall have the
meanings assigned to them in the Business Financing Agreement. 


 


Hereinafter,

Borrower
hereby acknowledges that as of the date hereof, the following Event of Default (the “Existing Default”) has occurred
and remains uncured under the Business Financing Agreement:


 


		a.	Failure to maintain an Asset Coverage Ratio of at
least 1.75 to 1.00 for the months ended January 31, 2013 and February 28, 2013, as set forth in Section 4.11(a).

		(i)	the Receivable is not paid within 90 days from its

		(iii)	Effective as of April 4, 2013, the following defined
term in Section 12.1 entitled “Definitions” is hereby amended as follows:



 


“Maturity
Date” means July 3, 2013 or such earlier date as Lender shall have declared the Obligations immediately due and payable

7.           EQUITY
INFUSION.On or before April 4, 2013, Borrower shall raise at least $4,000,000 in addition equity, from new or existing investors
(the “Equity Infusion”).


 


8.           CONSISTENT
CHANGES. The Existing Documents are each hereby amended wherever necessary to reflect the changes described above.


 


9.           PAYMENT
OF FEES. Borrower shall pay Lender a fee in the amount of $26,000 (the “Success Fee”),
a fee in the amount of $10,000 (the “Forbearance Fee”), a fee in the amount of $10,000 (the “Waiver Fee”),
and a fee in the amount of $12,500 (the “Prorated Facility Fee”), plus all out-of-pocket expenses. 


 


10.         NO
DEFENSES OF BORROWER/GENERAL RELEASE. Borrower agrees that, as of this date, it has no defenses against the obligations to pay
any amounts under the Indebtedness. Each of Borrower and Guarantor (each, a “Releasing Party”) acknowledges that Lender
would not enter into this Business Financing Modification Agreement without
Releasing Party’s assurance that it has no claims against Lender or any of Lender’s officers, directors, employees
or agents. Except for the obligations arising hereafter under this Business Financing Modification Agreement, each Releasing Party
releases Lender, and each of Lender’s and entity’s officers, directors and employees from any known or unknown claims
that Releasing Party now has against Lender of any nature, including any claims that Releasing Party, its successors, counsel,
and advisors may in the future discover they would have now had if they had known facts not now known to them, whether founded
in contract, in tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability, including but not limited to any claims arising out of or related
to the Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby. Releasing Party waives the provisions of California Civil Code section
1542, which states:


 






    	 



    	 



    

 


A
GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME
OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.


 


The
provisions, waivers and releases set forth in this section are binding upon each Releasing Party and its shareholders, agents,
employees, assigns and successors in interest. The provisions, waivers and releases of this section shall inure to the benefit
of Lender and its agents, employees, officers, directors, assigns and successors in interest. The provisions of this section shall
survive payment in full of the Obligations, full performance of all the terms of this Business Financing Modification Agreement
and the Agreement, and/or Lender’s actions to exercise any remedy available under the Agreement or otherwise.


 


11.         CONTINUING
VALIDITY. Borrower understands and agrees that in modifying the existing Indebtedness, Lender is relying upon Borrower’s
representations, warranties, and agreements, as set forth in the Existing Documents. Except as expressly modified pursuant to this
Business Financing Modification Agreement, the terms of the Existing Documents remain unchanged and in full force and effect. Lender’s
agreement to modifications to the existing Indebtedness pursuant to this Business Financing
Modification Agreement in no way shall obligate Lender to make any future modifications to the Indebtedness. Nothing in this Business
Financing Modification Agreement shall constitute a satisfaction of the Indebtedness. It is the intention of Lender and Borrower
to retain as liable parties all makers and endorsers of Existing Documents, unless the party is expressly released by Lender in
writing. No maker, endorser, or guarantor will be released by virtue of this Business Financing Modification Agreement. The terms
of this paragraph apply not only to this Business Financing Modification Agreement, but also to any subsequent Business Financing
modification agreements.


 


12.         CONDITIONS.
The effectiveness of this Business Financing Modification Agreement is conditioned upon payment of the Success Fee, the Forbearance
Fee, the Waiver Fee and the Prorated Facility Fee.


 


13.         NOTICE
OF FINAL AGREEMENT. BY SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT EACH PARTY REPRESENTS AND AGREES THAT: (A) THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, (B) THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES, AND (C) THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT MAY
NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF ANY PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR UNDERSTANDINGS OF THE PARTIES.


 


14.         COUNTERSIGNATURE.
This Business Financing Modification Agreement shall become effective only when executed by Lender and Borrower.
