FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
NXSN Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of Imation
Corp. or registered assigns (“Holder”) the amount set out above as the Original Principal Amount (as reduced
pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption, conversion or otherwise, the “Principal”) when due, whether
upon the Maturity Date (as defined below), acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof)
and to pay interest (“Interest”) on any outstanding Principal at a rate per annum set forth below (the “Interest
Rate”), from the date of this Senior Secured Convertible Note (this “Note”) set out above as the Issuance
Date (the “Issuance Date”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether upon an Interest Date (as
defined below), the Maturity Date, acceleration, conversion, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms

Interest Rate set forth below and on the same terms and conditions as the rest of the Principal hereunder.

(1)         MATURITY.
On the Maturity Date, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company and the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount, as
adjusted pursuant to Section 25(a), in cash, representing all outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest and accrued and
unpaid Late Charges, if any. The “Maturity Date” shall be the date which is the third anniversary of
the Issuance Date, or otherwise as provided herein.


 


(2)         INTEREST;
INTEREST RATE. Interest on this Note shall commence accruing on the Issuance Date and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day

Quarterly Period from the Issuance Date to the 1st anniversary of the Issuance Date, (ii) the last day of each Monthly Period from

on this Note shall accrue at the Interest Rate and be payable by way of inclusion of the Interest in the Conversion Amount (as
defined below) in accordance with Section 3(b)(i). From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Interest Rate shall
be increased by four percent (4%) per annum. In the event that such Event of Default is subsequently cured, the adjustment referred
to in the preceding sentence shall cease to be effective as of the date of such cure; provided that the Interest as calculated
at such increased rate during the continuance of such Event of Default shall continue to apply to the extent relating to the days
after the occurrence of such Event of Default through and including the date of cure of such Event of Default.


 


(3)         CONVERSION
OF NOTES. This Note shall be convertible into shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common

(a)          Conversion
Right. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(d), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, the Holder shall be entitled
to convert (the “Conversion Right”) any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined
below) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 3(c), at the Conversion Rate (as defined
below). The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in
the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the
nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all taxes (other than Incomes Taxes) that may be payable with respect to the
issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.

(b)          Conversion
Rate. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 3(a) shall
be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price (the “Conversion Rate”).


 


(i)          “Conversion
Amount” means the sum of (A) the portion of the Principal to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which
this determination is being made up to a maximum Principal amount of $10,000,000, (B) accrued and unpaid Interest with respect
to such Principal and (C) accrued and unpaid Late Charges with respect to such Principal and Interest.


 


(c)          “Conversion
Price” means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined below) or other date of determination, $1.25, subject to adjustment
as provided herein (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, reclassification, recapitalization and
similar events).


 


(d)          Mechanics
of Conversion.


 


(i)          Optional
Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into shares of Common Stock on any date (a “Conversion Date”),
the Holder shall (A) transmit by facsimile or other electronic transmission (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to
11:59 p.m., New York Time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A
(the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company and (B) if required by Section 3(c)(iii), surrender this Note to a
common carrier for delivery to the Company as soon as practicable on or following such date (or an indemnification undertaking
with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction). On or before the first (1st) Business Day
following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile a confirmation of receipt of such
Conversion Notice to the Holder. On or before the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion
Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall issue and deliver to the address as specified in
the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common
Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled. If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion as required by Section 3(c)(iii)
and the outstanding Principal of this Note is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then
the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of this Note and at its
own expense, issue and deliver to the holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 19(d)) representing the outstanding Principal
not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall
be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date.


 




    	 	- 3 - 

	 



     


    

 


(ii)         Company’s
Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail to issue a certificate to the Holder for the number of shares of Common
Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon conversion of any Conversion Amount on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business
Days after the Conversion Date (a “Conversion Failure”), then (A) the Company shall pay damages to the Holder
for each date of such Conversion Failure in an amount equal to 1.5% of the product of (I) the sum of the number of shares of Common
Stock not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Date and to which the Holder is entitled and (II) the Conversion
Price and (B) the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Conversion Notice with respect to, and retain or have
returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Note that has not been converted pursuant to such Conversion Notice; provided
that the voiding of a Conversion Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued
prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 3(c)(ii) or otherwise.


 


(iii)        Registration;
Book-Entry. The Company shall maintain a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the holders of the Note and the principal amount of the Note (the “Registered Notes”). The entries
in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Company and the holder of the Note
shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes, including, without limitation,
the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. A Registered Note may
be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon its receipt of a
request to assign or sell all or part of any Registered Note by a Holder, the Company shall record the information contained therein
in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate principal amount as the principal amount of the
surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to Section 19. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required
to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by this Note is being converted
or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting
physical surrender and reissue of this Note. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal, Interest
and Late Charges converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder
and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion.

    	 	- 6 - 

	 



     


    

 


(xiv)      the

an Event of Default if such misrepresentation or breach was due to (in whole or in part) a misrepresentation or breach of any representation
or warranty made by Imation Corp. (the initial Holder hereunder) in the Stock Purchase Agreement.


 


(5)         RIGHTS
UPON FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL.


 


(a)          Assumption.
The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless (i) Holder consents in writing to such Fundamental
Transaction and (ii) the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other
Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(a) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory
to the Holder and approved by the Holder prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to Holder in exchange
for the Note a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to
the Note, including, without limitation, having a principal amount and interest rate equal to the principal amounts and the interest
rates of the Note held by such holder and having similar ranking to the Note, and satisfactory to the Holder. Upon the occurrence
of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date
of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Note referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the
Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company
under this Note with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of the
Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon conversion
or redemption of this Note at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of the Common
Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the conversion or redemption of the Notes prior to
such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of common stock (or its equivalent) of the Successor Entity as adjusted in accordance
with the provisions of this Note. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions
and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion or redemption of this Note.


 




    	 	- 7 - 

	 



     


    

 


(b)          Fundamental
Transaction Prepayment. No sooner than fifteen (15) days nor later than ten (10) days prior to the consummation of a Fundamental
Transaction, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via facsimile or other electronic transmission and overnight courier
to the Holder (a “Change of Control Notice”). At any time during the period beginning after the Holder’s
receipt of a Change of Control Notice and ending on the date of the consummation of such Change of Control (or, in the event a
Change of Control Notice is not delivered at least ten (10) days prior to a Change of Control, at any time on or after the date
which is ten (10) days prior to a Change of Control and ending ten (10) days after the consummation of such Change of Control),
the Holder may require the Company to prepay all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (“Change
of Control Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of
the Principal the Holder is electing to have the Company prepay. The portion of this Note subject to prepayment pursuant to this
Section 5 (the “Prepayment Portion”) shall include a prepayment premium equal to 1% of the aggregate amount
of the outstanding Principal so prepaid, plus the amount of any accrued and unpaid Interest on the Prepayment Portion through the
date of such redemption payment together with the amount of any accrued and unpaid Late Charges on such Prepayment Portion and
Interest. Prepayments required by this Section 5 shall have priority to payments to shareholders in connection with a Fundamental
Transaction. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s prepayment of any portion of the Note under this
Section 5(b), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to
predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder.
Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable
estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.


 


(6)         RIGHTS
UPON ISSUANCE OF PURCHASE RIGHTS AND OTHER CORPORATE EVENTS.


 


(a)          Purchase
Rights. If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock,
warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”),
then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which
the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion
of the convertible portion of this Note immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale
of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined
for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.


 




    	 	- 8 - 

	 



     


    

 


(b)          Other
Corporate Events. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental
Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect
to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision
to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note, (i) in addition to the shares
of Common Stock receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled with
respect to such shares of Common Stock had such shares of Common Stock been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such Corporate
Event (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) or (ii) in lieu of the shares
of Common Stock otherwise receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets received by the holders of shares of
Common Stock in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled
to receive had this Note initially been issued with conversion rights for the form of such consideration (as opposed to shares
of Common Stock) at a conversion rate for such consideration commensurate with the Conversion Rate. Provision made pursuant to
the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders. The provisions of this Section shall
apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion
or redemption of this Note.


 


(7)         RIGHTS
UPON ISSUANCE OF OTHER SECURITIES.


 


(a)          Adjustment
of Conversion Price upon Issuance of Common Stock. If and whenever on or after the Issuance Date, the Company issues or sells,
or in accordance with this Section 7(a) is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or
sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding shares of Common Stock deemed
to have been issued or sold by the Company in connection with any Excluded Security) for a consideration per share (the “New
Issuance Price”) less than a price (the “Applicable Price”) equal to the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”),
then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to a price determined in accordance
with the following formula:


 


CP2 = CP1* (A + B)
÷ (A + C).


 


For purposes of the foregoing formula,
the following definitions shall apply:


 


“CP2” shall mean the
Conversion Price in effect immediately after such Dilutive Issuance.


 


“CP1” shall mean the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance;


 


“A” shall mean the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Options outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or upon conversion or exchange of
Convertible Securities (including the Series A Preferred Stock) outstanding immediately prior to such issuance);


 




    	 	- 9 - 

	 



     


    

 


“B” shall mean the number of shares
of Common Stock that would have been issued if the shares of Common Stock issued in the Dilutive Issuance had been issued at a
price per share equal to CP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect
of such issue by CP1); and


 


“C” shall mean the number of shares
of Common Stock issued in the Dilutive Issuance.


 


(b)          For
purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion Price under Section 7(a), the following shall be applicable:


 


(i)          Issuance
of Options. If the Company in any manner grants or sells any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of
Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities
issuable upon exercise of such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per
share. For purposes of this Section 7(a)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable
upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise
of such Option” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company
with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option and upon conversion
or exchange or exercise of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option. No further adjustment of the Conversion
Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such share of Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise
of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities.


 


(ii)         Issuance
of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per
share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange or exercise thereof is less than the Applicable
Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the
time of the issuance of sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 7(a)(ii),
the “price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange or exercise”
shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to
any one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon the conversion or exchange or exercise
of such Convertible Security. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such share
of Common Stock upon conversion or exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible
Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of the Conversion Price had been or are to be made pursuant
to other provisions of this Section 7(a), no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or
sale.


 




    	 	- 10 - 

	 



     


    

 


(iii)        Change
in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if
any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible
Securities are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock changes at any time, the Conversion Price in effect
at the time of such change shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options
or Convertible Securities provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the
case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 7(a)(iii), if the terms of any Option
or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Issuance Date are changed in the manner described in the immediately preceding
sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof
shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such change. No adjustment shall be made if such adjustment would result
in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect.


 


(iv)        Calculation
of Consideration Received. In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company,
together comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto,
(x) the Options will be deemed to have been issued for a value determined by use of the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model (the
“Option Value”) and (y) the other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction shall be deemed to
have been issued for the difference of (I) the aggregate consideration received by the Company, less (II) the Option Value. If
any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration
received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by
the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities, in which case
the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the date of receipt. If
any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any
merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of
such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined jointly by
the Company and the Holder. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event
requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within
five (5) Business Days after the tenth day following the Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected
by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such appraiser shall be deemed binding upon all parties absent manifest error
and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

(v)         Record
Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend
or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the Common
Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the
date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.


 


(c)          Adjustment
of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date
undertakes any action (whether by way of subdivision, stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) that increases
any one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date
undertakes any action (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) that reduces any one or more classes of its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will
be proportionately increased.


 


(d)          Other
Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 7 but not expressly provided for by
such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights
with equity features), then the Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price
so as to protect the rights of the Holder under this Note; provided that no such adjustment will increase the Conversion Price
as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 7.


 


(e)          Rights
Upon Distribution of Assets. If the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights
to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation,
any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate
rearrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the Issuance Date, then, in
each such case any Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination
of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business
on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall
be the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding such record date minus the value
of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock,
and (ii) the denominator shall be the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding
such record date.

(8)         SECURITY.
This Note is secured to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Guaranty and Security Agreement.


 


(9)         NONCIRCUMVENTION.
The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through
any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities,
or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note or otherwise
amend or modify the rights, privileges or preference of the Common Stock in a manner that adversely affects the conversion rights
of the Holder, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Note and take all action as may be required
to protect the rights of the Holder of this Note.


 


(10)        RESERVATION
OF AUTHORIZED SHARES.


 


(a)          Reservation.
The Company shall initially reserve out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock a number of shares of Common Stock for the
Note equal to 130% of the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount of the Note as of the Issuance Date. So
long as the Note is outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized
and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Note, 130% of the number of shares of Common
Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of the Note then outstanding; provided that at no time shall
the number of shares of Common Stock so reserved be less than the number of shares required to be reserved by the previous sentence
(without regard to any limitations on conversions) (the “Required Reserve Amount”).


 


(b)          Insufficient
Authorized Shares. If at any time while the Note remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized
and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Note at least a
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then
the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an
amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Note then outstanding.


 


(11)        RESTRICTION
ON REDEMPTION AND CASH DIVIDENDS. Until the Note has been converted, redeemed or otherwise satisfied in accordance with its
terms, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, redeem, repurchase or declare or pay any cash dividend or distribution on
its capital stock without the prior express written consent of the Holder.


 


(12)        PREPAYMENT.
Subject to Holder’s Conversion Right, the Company may at any time and from time to time prepay the Note, in whole or in part
(other than any Conversion Amount, if the Conversion Right is exercised by Holder), upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Holder
by not later than 11:00 a.m. at least five Business Days prior thereto, which notice shall specify the date of such prepayment.
If any such notice is given, all outstanding Principal (other than any Principal related to the Conversion Amount, if the Conversion
Right is exercised by Holder) shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date
on the amount prepaid and all Late Fees, if any. If this Note is prepaid through any prepayments, Holder shall be paid a prepayment
premium equal to 1% of the aggregate amount of the outstanding Principal so prepaid. The parties hereto agree that in the event
of the Company’s prepayment of any portion of the Note under this Section 12, the Holder’s damages would be uncertain
and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability
of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 12 is
intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity
and not as a penalty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Original Principal
Amount is reduced, but such reduction is determined after the Company has made payments of Principal or Interest hereunder, the
amounts due hereunder by the Company shall be recalculated taking into account the reduction in the Original Principal Amount,
and in the event Company has made any payments in excess of the amounts which would have been required hereunder had the Original
Principal Amount been so reduced prior to making such payments, the amount of such excess shall be treated as prepayments, and
no penalties or premiums shall be due or charged with respect to such prepayments.


 




    	 	- 13 - 

	 



     


    

 


(13)        VOTING
RIGHTS. The Holder shall have no voting rights as the holder of this Note, except as required by law, including but not limited
to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and as expressly provided in this Note. The Company shall have no more
than five directors on the Board of Directors unless the Holder consents in writing to an increase in the number of members of
the Board of Directors.


 


(14)        REGISTRATION
RIGHTS. At any time after an IPO, Holder, to the extent it has exercised its conversion right under Section 3, may request
registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of the Common Stock it received in such conversion pursuant to a registration
statement on Form S-1 or any successor form thereto, pursuant to a form of registration rights agreement reasonably acceptable
to Holder.


 


(15)        COVENANTS.
So long as this Note is outstanding:


 


(a)          Rank.
All payments due under this Note shall be senior to all other Indebtedness of the Company.


 


(b)          Incurrence

incur or guarantee, assume or suffer to exist any Indebtedness, other than (i) the Indebtedness evidenced by this Note and (ii)
other Permitted Indebtedness.


 


(c)          Issuance

Stock.


 


(d)          Existence
of Liens. The Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, allow
or suffer to exist any mortgage, lien, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon or in any property or assets
(including accounts and contract rights) owned by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, “Liens”)
other than Permitted Liens.

(e)          Restricted
Payments. The Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, redeem,
defease, repurchase, repay or make any payments in respect of, by the payment of cash or cash equivalents (in whole or in part,
whether by way of open market purchases, tender offers, private transactions or otherwise), all or any portion of any Permitted
Indebtedness (other than this Note), whether by way of payment in respect of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on,
such Indebtedness if at the time such payment is due or is otherwise made or, after giving effect to such payment, an event constituting,
or that with the passage of time and without being cured would constitute, an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.


 


(f)          Loans,
Advances, Investments, Etc. The Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make or commit
or agree to make any loan, advance, guarantee of obligations, other extension of credit or capital contributions to, or hold or

but not any increase in the amount thereof as set forth in such Schedule or any other modification of the terms thereof, (ii) temporary
loans and advances by it to its Subsidiaries and by such Subsidiaries to it, made in the ordinary course of business consistent
with past practice, and (iii) Permitted Investments.


 


(g)          Fundamental
Changes; Dispositions. Other than in accordance with Section 5(a), the Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, wind-up, liquidate or dissolve, or merge, consolidate or amalgamate with any Person, or convey, sell,
lease or sublease, transfer or otherwise dispose of, whether in one transaction or a series of related transactions, all or any
part of its business, property or assets (including by way of spin-off, slit-off or business separation), whether now owned or
hereafter acquired (or agree to do any of the foregoing), or purchase or otherwise acquire, whether in one transaction or a series
of related transactions, all or substantially all of the assets of any Person (or any division thereof) (or agree to do any of
the foregoing), or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the Company
and its Subsidiaries may (A) sell Inventory in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, (B) dispose
of obsolete or worn-out equipment in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices and (C) sell or otherwise dispose
of other property or assets for cash in an aggregate amount not less than the fair market value of such property or assets provided

twelve-month period.


 


(h)          Change

any such plan in any material respect.

(iv) change its independent certified public accounts or registered public accountants, as applicable, that review, audit and/or
certify its respective financial statements.


 


(k)          Creation
of New Subsidiaries. So long as the obligations of the Company under this Note are outstanding, if the Company shall create
or acquire any Subsidiary, simultaneous with the creation or acquisition of such Subsidiary, the Company shall (1) promptly cause
such Subsidiary to become a guarantor by executing a guaranty in favor of the Holder in form and substance reasonably acceptable
to the Company, the Subsidiary and the Holder, (ii) promptly cause such Subsidiary to become a grantor under the Guaranty and Security
Agreement by executing a joinder to the Guaranty and Security Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company,

cause such Subsidiary to duly execute and/or deliver such opinions of counsel and other documents, in form and substance reasonable
acceptable to the Holder, as the Holder shall reasonably request with respect thereto.


 


(l)          Intellectual
Property. So long as the obligations of the Company under this Note are outstanding, the Company shall not, and shall not permit
any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, (i) assign, transfer or otherwise encumber or allow any other Person to have any rights

or (ii) knowingly take any action or inaction to impair the value of their intellectual property rights.


 


(m)          Change

solely for the Holder’s convenience in maintaining a record of Collateral, such written statements and schedules as the Holder
may reasonably require, designating, identifying or describing the Collateral.


 


(n)          Transactions
with Affiliates. The Company shall not, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into, renew, extend or be a party

of business in a manner and to an extent consistent with past practice or (ii) necessary or desirable for the prudent operation
of its business, for fair consideration and on terms no less favorable to it or its Subsidiaries than would be obtainable in a
comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate thereof.


 




    	 	- 16 - 

	 



     


    

 


(o)          Preservation
of Existence, Etc. The Company shall maintain and preserve, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve, its
existence, rights and privileges, and become or remain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to become or remain, duly qualified
and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the transaction
of its business makes such qualification necessary.


 


(p)          Maintenance
of Properties, Etc. The Company shall maintain and preserve, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve, all
of its properties which are necessary or useful in the proper conduct of its business in good working order and condition, ordinary
wear and tear excepted, and comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, at all times with the provisions of all leases
to which it is a party as lessee or under which it occupies property, so as to prevent any material loss or forfeiture thereof
or thereunder.


 


(q)          Maintenance
of Insurance. The Company shall maintain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain, insurance with responsible and reputable
insurance companies or associations (including, without limitation, comprehensive general liability, hazard, rent and business
interruption insurance) with respect to its properties (including all real properties leased or owned by it) and business, in such
amounts and covering such risks as is required by any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is
carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in similar businesses similarly situated and in any event
in amount, adequacy and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Holder. All policies covering the Collateral are to be made payable
to the Holder as a co-payee with the Company, as its interests may appear, in case of loss, under a standard non-contributory “lender”
or “secured party” clause and are to contain such other provisions as the Holder may reasonably require to fully protect
the interest of the Holder in the Collateral and to any payments to be made under such policies. All certificates of insurance
are to be delivered to the Holder and the policies are to be premium prepaid, with the loss payable and additional insured endorsement
in favor of the Holder and such other Persons as the Holder may designate from time to time, and shall provide for not less than
30 days’ prior written notice to the Holder of the exercise of any right of cancellation. If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
fails to maintain such insurance, the Holder may arrange for such insurance, but at the Company’s expense and without any
responsibility on the Holder’s part for obtaining the insurance, the solvency of the insurance companies, the adequacy of
the coverage, or the collection of claims. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Holder shall
have the sole right, in the name of the Holder, the Company and its Subsidiaries, to file claims under any insurance policies,
to receive, receipt and give acquittance for any payments that may be payable thereunder, and to execute any and all endorsements,
receipts, releases, assignments, reassignments or other documents that may be necessary to effect the collection, compromise or
settlement of any claims under any such insurance policies.

this Section 19(a), following conversion, exchange or redemption of any portion of this Note, the outstanding Principal represented
by this Note may be less than the Principal stated on the face of this Note.


 


(b)          Lost,
Stolen or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Note, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the
Holder to the Company in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Company

on the face of such new Note, which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Note, (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions
as this Note, and (v) shall represent accrued Interest and Late Charges on the Principal and Interest of this Note, from the Issuance

(20)        REMEDIES,
CHARACTERIZATIONS, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative
and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and the other Loan Documents at law or in equity (including a decree
of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue actual
and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. Amounts set forth or provided for
herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the
Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance
thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and
that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach
or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any
breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.


 


(21)        PAYMENT

or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or the Holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this
Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the Company
or other proceedings affecting Company creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Note, then the Company shall pay

HEADINGS. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the Holder and shall not be construed against
any person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Note are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect
the interpretation of, this Note.


 


(23)        FAILURE
OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other
or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

(24)        DISPUTE
RESOLUTION. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Fair Market Value or the arithmetic calculation of the
Conversion Rate, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via facsimile or other electronic
transmission within one (1) Business Day of receipt of the Conversion Notice or other event giving rise to such dispute, as the
case may be, to the Holder. If the Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation within one
(1) Business Day of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Holder, then the Company shall,
within one Business Day submit via facsimile or other electronic transmission (a) the disputed determination of the Fair Market
Value to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Holder or (b) the disputed arithmetic
calculation of the Conversion Rate to the Company’s independent, outside accountant. The Company, at the Company’s
expense, shall cause the investment bank or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and
notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later than five (5) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations
or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accountant’s determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be
binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.


 


(25)        NOTICES;
PAYMENTS.


 


(a)          Notices.
Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance
with Annex A. The Company shall provide the Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to this Note,
including in reasonable detail a description of such action and the reason therefore. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Company will give written notice to the Holder (i) immediately upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, setting forth in
reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment and (ii) at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which
the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with
respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any

(b)          Payments.
Whenever any payment of cash is to be made by the Company to any Person pursuant to this Note, such payment shall be made in lawful
money of the United States of America by a check drawn on the account of the Company and sent via overnight courier service to
such Person at such address as previously provided to the Company in writing; provided that the Holder may elect to receive a payment
of cash via wire transfer of immediately available funds by providing the Company with prior written notice setting out such request
and the Holder’s wire transfer instructions. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on
any day which is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and, in the
case of any Interest Date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall

amounts due under the Loan Documents, other than Interest, which is not paid when due shall result in a late charge being incurred

(i)          If
the transactions contemplated in this Note or by any other Loan Document would be usurious as to the Holder under laws applicable
to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be
mandatorily applicable to the Holder notwithstanding the other provisions of this Note), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Note or any other Loan Document, it is agreed as follows: the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes
Interest under law applicable to the Holder that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by the Holder under this
Note or any other Loan Document shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, any excess
shall be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by the Holder on the Principal amount of this Note (or,
to the extent that the Principal amount of this Note shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the Holder to
the Company). If at any time and from time to time (1) the amount of Interest payable to the Holder on any date shall be computed
at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to the Holder pursuant to this Section 25(c) and (2) in respect of any subsequent interest
computation period the amount of Interest otherwise payable to the Holder would be less than the amount of Interest payable to
the Holder computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to the Holder, then the amount of Interest payable to the Holder in respect
of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to the Holder
until the total amount of Interest payable to the Holder shall equal the total amount of Interest which would have been payable
to the Holder if the total amount of Interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 25(c).


 


(ii)         For
purposes of this Section 25(c), the term “applicable law” shall mean that law in effect from time to time and applicable
to the transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Holder, on the other, that lawfully permits the charging and collection
of the highest permissible, lawful non-usurious rate of interest on such loan transaction and this Note, including laws of the
State of Delaware and, to the extent controlling, laws of the United States of America.


 


(26)        CANCELLATION.
After all Principal, accrued Interest and other amounts at any time owed on this Note have been paid in full, this Note shall automatically
be deemed canceled, shall be surrendered to the Company for cancellation and shall not be reissued.


 


(27)        SET-OFF
AND RECOUPMENT. This Note, and the Principal and Interest hereunder, is subject to set-off and recoupment by the Company as set
forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement.


 


(28)        WAIVER
OF NOTICE. To the extent permitted by law, the Company hereby waives demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices
in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note.


 


(29)        COUNTERPARTS.
This Note may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one instrument.


 


(30)        No
Effect on Stock Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary,
no term or provision of this Note or any other Loan Document shall have the effect of modifying or amending any of the rights of
the Company (as Purchaser) under the Stock Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, any rights to set-off or recoup amounts
under this Note or any of the obligations, including, without limitation, the indemnity obligations, of Imation Corp. (the initial
Holder) (as Seller) under the Stock Purchase Agreement.

(31)        GOVERNING
LAW; JURISDICTION; SEVERABILITY; JURY TRIAL. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions
concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the
State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware
or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware.
The Company irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Wilmington, Delaware,
for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed
herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that
the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right
to serve process in any manner permitted by law. In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under
any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith
and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable
under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Note. Nothing contained herein shall
be deemed or operate to preclude the Holder from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction
to collect on the Company’s obligations to the Holder, to realize on any collateral or any other security for such obligations,
or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder. THE COMPANY AND HOLDER EACH HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES
ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH
OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
