thereafter during the continuance of such Event of Default, Lender may, by written notice to the Company, declare all outstanding
principal and interest to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind,

this Note (or a notice to the effect that the original Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and an agreement acceptable to the
Company whereby the holder agrees to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with this Note) for cancellation,
provided that Company shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note upon making such payment
in full and this Note shall be deemed of no further force or effect, whether or not the original of this Note has been delivered
to the Company for cancellation.


 


5.      Representations
and Warranties of the Lender. Lender hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:


 


(a)        Securities Law Compliance. Lender has been advised that this Note has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Act”) or any state securities laws and, therefore, cannot be resold unless it is registered
under the Act and applicable state securities laws or (if this Note is deemed to be securities) unless an exemption from such registration
requirements is available. Lender is aware that the Company is under no obligation to effect any such registration with respect
to this Note or to file for or comply with any exemption from registration. If Lender is an entity, Lender has not been formed
solely for the purpose of making this investment and is entering into the transaction contemplated by this Note for Lender’s
own account for investment, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, the distribution
thereof. Lender has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that Lender is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of such investment, is able to incur a complete loss of such investment, and is able to bear the economic risk of such
investment for an indefinite period of time. Lender is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501
of Regulation D under the Act.


 



    	 	- 2 -	 



     

    




(b)        Access to Information. Lender acknowledges that the Company has given the Lender access to the corporate records and accounts
of the Company and to all information in its possession relating to the Company, has made its officers and representatives available
for interview by Lender, and has furnished Lender with all documents and other information required for Lender to make an informed
decision with respect to the purchase of the Note.


 


6.      Representations
and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Lender as follows:


 


(a)        Organization, Good Standing, Qualification and Power. The Company is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of its state of incorporation. The Company has the requisite corporate power to own and operate its properties and
assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted. The Company is duly qualified and is authorized
to do business and is in good standing as a foreign entity in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its activities and of its
properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which failure to do so
would not have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business. The Company has all requisite corporate power to execute
and deliver the Note and to carry out and perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder.


 


(b)        Authorization. All requisite corporate action has been taken on the part of the Company necessary for the authorization
of the Note and the execution, delivery and performance of all obligations of the Company under the Note.


 


7.      Security.


 


(a)        Security Interest. As security for the Company’s payment and performance under this Note, the Company hereby grants
to Lender a security interest in all of the Company’s assets including the following (collectively, the “Collateral”):
(a) machinery, tools, equipment, furniture, furnishings and fixtures, of every kind and nature, movable or immovable, wherever
located and whether now or hereafter existing, and all parts thereof and replacements, additions, improvements and accessions thereto;
(b) accounts, deposit accounts, accounts receivable, chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic), records, documents (whether
negotiable or non-negotiable), instruments (whether negotiable or non-negotiable), investment property and other obligations owed
to the Company of any kind, whether or not evidenced by an instrument or chattel paper, and whether or not such asset has been
earned by performance, whether now or hereafter existing, (c) contract rights and general intangibles, both now owned and hereafter
acquired, and (d) all proceeds from any of the items listed in clauses (a)-(c) of this subsection. The Company hereby authorizes
Lender to file any financing statement or other evidence of the security interest granted in this Section 7. The Company shall
promptly execute and deliver, at its sole cost and expense, all financing statements, instruments and other documents, and take
all further action that Lender may reasonably request from time to time to perfect and protect the security interest created herein.


 



    	 	- 3 -	 



     

    




(b)        Prior Liens. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender acknowledges that the liens in, on or with respect to the Collateral
granted by Borrower in this Note are expressly subordinated and made junior in right, priority, operation and effect to any and
all liens granted to (and not released by) any other creditor prior to the date of this Note, including without limitation, to
the liens of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.. Such subordination shall be effective irrespective of the time, order or method of creation,
attachment or perfection of any such prior liens granted in favor of the applicable creditors or of any defect or deficiency or
alleged defect or deficiency in any such prior lien.


 


8.      Miscellaneous.


 


(a)        Successors and Assigns; Transfer of this Note. The rights and obligations of the Company and Lender shall be binding upon
and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties; provided that neither this Note nor
any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, by
the Company without the prior written consent of Lender.


 


(b)        Waiver and Amendment. Any provision of this Note may be amended, waived or modified only upon the written consent of the
Company and Lender.


 


(c)        Broker or Finders Fee. Each of the Company and Lender hereby represents and warrants to the other party that it has not
incurred, and will not incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by it or its agents, any liability for brokerage
or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or any similar charges in connection with the issuance of this Note or any
of the transactions contemplated hereby.


 


(d)        Notices. All notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications required or permitted hereunder
shall be in writing and faxed, mailed or delivered to each party at the respective addresses of the parties as set forth on the
signature pages to this Note, or at such other address or facsimile number as the Company shall have furnished to Lender in writing.
All such notices and communications will be deemed effectively given the earlier of (i) when received, (ii) when delivered
personally, (iii) one business day after being deposited with an overnight courier service of recognized standing or (iv) four
days after being deposited in the U.S. mail, first class with postage prepaid.


 


(e)        Usury. In the event any interest is paid on this Note which is deemed to be in excess of the then legal maximum rate, then
that portion of the interest payment representing an amount in excess of the then legal maximum rate shall be deemed a payment
of principal and applied against the principal of this Note.


 


(f)         Governing Law. This Note and all actions arising out of or in connection with this Note shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the State of Delaware,
or of any other state.


 



    	 	- 4 -	 



     

    




(g)        Waiver of Jury Trial. By acceptance of this Note, Lender hereby agrees and the Company hereby agrees to waive their respective
rights to a jury trial of any claim or cause of action based upon or arising out of this Note.
