Section
4. Conversion.


 


a)
Conversion of Outstanding Balance. Beginning on the Issue Date and until this Debenture is no longer outstanding, this Debenture
shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (“Conversion Shares”)
at the option of the Holder, upon delivery of a Notice of Conversion to the Company, at the Conversion Price. The number of Conversion
Shares into which the Debenture may be converted shall be determined by dividing the aggregate principal amount together with all accrued
interest to the date of conversion by the Conversion Price.


 


b)
Conversions. The Holder shall effect any conversions under this section by delivering to the Company a fully completed Notice
of Conversion. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Company
unless the entire principal amount of this Debenture, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted. Conversions
hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding amount of this Debenture in an amount equal to the applicable conversion.
The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). The Holder, and
any assignee by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion
of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and unconverted amount of this Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.


 


c)
Mechanics of Conversion.


 


i.
Delivery of Conversion Shares Upon Conversion. Conversion Shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent
to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company
through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system
and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Conversion Shares to or resale of the Conversion
Shares by the Holder or (B) the Conversion Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations
pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name
of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such conversion to the
address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Conversion by the date that is the earlier of (i) three (3) Trading Days after the delivery
to the Company of the Notice of Conversion and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery
to the Company of the Notice of Conversion (such date, the “Conversion Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the
Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Conversion Shares
with respect to which this Debenture has been converted, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Conversion Shares. If the Company
fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Conversion Shares subject to a Notice of Conversion by the Conversion Share Delivery
Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Conversion Shares
subject to such conversion (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Conversion), $10 per Trading
Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after
such Conversion Share Delivery Date until such Conversion Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. If qualified, the
Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Debenture remains outstanding and
exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number
of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery
of the Notice of Conversion.

ii.
Delivery of New Debentures Upon Conversion. If this Debenture shall have been converted in part, the Company shall, at the request
of a Holder and upon surrender of this Debenture, at the time of delivery of the Conversion Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Debenture
evidencing the principal outstanding and the rights of the Holder to acquire Conversion Shares called for by this Debenture, which new
Debenture shall in all other respects be identical with this Debenture.


 


iii.
Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Conversion Shares pursuant to
Section 4(c)(i) by the Conversion Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such conversion.


 


iv.
Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Conversion Shares Upon Conversion. In addition to any other rights available
to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Conversion Shares in accordance with the
provisions of Section 4(c)(i) above pursuant to a conversion on or before the Conversion Share Delivery Date, and if after such date
the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise
purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder anticipated
receiving upon such conversion (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any,
by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased
exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Conversion Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder
in connection with the conversion at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed,
and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Debenture and equivalent number of Conversion Shares for which
such conversion was not honored (in which case such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares
of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its conversion and delivery obligations hereunder. For
example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted
conversion of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A)
of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written
notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount
of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in
equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure
to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Debenture as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

v.
No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion
of this Debenture. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company
shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied
by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.


 


vi.
Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Conversion Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer
tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Conversion Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by
the Company, and such Conversion Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the
Holder; provided, however, that in the event that Conversion Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this
Debenture when surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form, in the form attached hereto as Attachment B,
duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for
any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of
Conversion and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required
for same-day electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares.


 


vii.
Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely conversion
of this Debenture, pursuant to the terms hereof.


 


Section
5. Certain Adjustments.


 


a)
Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise
makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares
of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of
this Debenture), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way
of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares
of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Fixed Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a
fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately
before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.
Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders
entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision,
combination or re- classification.


 




    	6



    	 



    

 


b)
Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 5(a) above, if at any time the Company grants,
issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all record
holders of any class of shares 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 this Debenture 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 shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.


 


c)
Calculations. All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the
case may be. For purposes of this Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date
shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.


 


Section
6.  Fundamental Transaction.


 


(a)
If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects
any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease,
license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related
transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person)
is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash
or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly,
in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory
share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property,
or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other
business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another
Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common
Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party
to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then,
the Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor
Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Debenture and the other Transaction Documents
(as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6 pursuant to written agreements in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction
and shall, at the option of the holder of this Debenture, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Debenture a security of the Successor
Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Debenture, which is exercisable for a corresponding
number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable
and receivable upon conversion of this Debenture prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an conversion price which applies the
conversion price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock
pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such
conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Debenture immediately prior to the consummation of such
Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such 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 Debenture and the other Transaction Documents 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 Debenture and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock

officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Charlotte, County
of Mecklenburg, state of North Carolina (the “NC Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the NC Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated
hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), 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 such NC
Courts, or such NC Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service
of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified
mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Debenture
and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall
be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of
or relating to this Debenture or the transactions contemplated hereby. If any party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce
any provisions of this Debenture, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its
attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.


 


e)
Waiver. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Debenture shall not operate as or be construed
to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Debenture. The failure of the Company
or the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Debenture on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver
or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Debenture on any
other occasion. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder must be in writing.


 


f)
Severability. If any provision of this Debenture is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Debenture shall remain
in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons
and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing
usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under
applicable law. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or
in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit
or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on this Debenture as contemplated herein, wherever
enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Debenture, and the Company
(to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not,
by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit
the execution of every such as though no such law has been enacted.

g)
Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Debenture shall
be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Debenture and any of the other Transaction 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 Debenture. The Company
covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts
set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments 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 such breach or any
such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company
shall provide all information and documentation to the Holder that is requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s
compliance with the terms and conditions of this Debenture.


 


h)
Next Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment
shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.


 


i)
Headings. The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Debenture and shall not be
deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.


 


j)
Senior Obligation. The obligations of the Company under this Debenture are senior debt obligations of the Company and are subject
to the terms and conditions of the Subordination Agreement.


 


k)
No Rights as Stockholder Until Conversion. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Debenture does not entitle the Holder to
any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof.


 




    	12



    	 



    

 


l)
Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period the Debenture is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized
and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Conversion Shares upon the exercise of any
conversion rights under this Debenture. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Debenture shall constitute full authority
to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Conversion Shares upon the exercise of the conversion rights under
this Debenture. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Conversion Shares may be issued
as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the
Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Conversion Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the conversion
rights represented by this Debenture will, upon exercise of the conversion rights represented by this Debenture in accordance herewith,
be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in
respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue). Except and to
the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its
certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, 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 Debenture,
but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary
or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Debenture against impairment. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Conversion Shares above the Conversion Price immediately prior
to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Conversion Shares upon the exercise of this Debenture and (iii) use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may
be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Debenture. Before taking any action, which would result in
an adjustment in the number of Conversion Shares for which this Debenture is exercisable or in the Conversion Price, the Company shall
obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies
having jurisdiction thereof.


 


m)
Holder’s Conversion Limitations. The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Debenture, and a Holder shall not have
the right to convert any portion of this Debenture, pursuant to Section 4 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such
issuance after conversion as set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates,
and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates, such other Persons, “Attribution
Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the
foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder, its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall
include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture with respect to which such determination is being
made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted
portion of this Debenture beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion
of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock
Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the
Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 8(m),
beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance
with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith.
In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 8(m), in determining the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s
most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company
or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally or in writing to the Holder the
number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined
after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Debenture, by the Holder or its Affiliates
or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial
Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect
to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase
or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 8(m) and the provisions of this Section 8(m) shall continue
to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is
delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity
with the terms of this Section 8(m) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the
intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect
to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Debenture.

n)
Registration Rights.


 


i)
Piggyback Registration Rights. Whenever the Company proposes to register any shares of its Common Stock under the Securities Act (other
than a registration effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a transaction to which Rule 145 of the Securities Act is
applicable, or a Registration Statement on Form S-4, S-8 or any successor form thereto or another form not available for registering
the Registrable Securities for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the account of one or more stockholders of the
Company and the form of registration statement to be used may be used to register the Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”),
the Company shall give prompt written notice prior to the filing of such registration statement (or its confidential submission to the
SEC in draft form) to the Holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and, subject to limitations
set forth in this section, shall include in such registration Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written
requests for inclusion from the holders of Registrable Securities within 5 days after the Company’s notice has been given to each
such holder. The Company may postpone or withdraw the filing or effectiveness of a Piggyback Registration at any time in its sole discretion.
A Piggyback Registration shall not be considered a Demand Registration for purposes of this Agreement. In connection with any offering
involving an underwriting of Company securities pursuant, the Company shall not be required to include any of the Registrable Securities
in such underwriting unless the holders accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and its underwriters,
and then only in such quantity, if any, as the underwriters in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the
offering by the Company.


 


ii)
Demand Registration. After the earlier of Maturity Date of the Debentures or the one year anniversary of the date 100% of the Debentures
have been converted into Common Stock, Holders of 51% of the Registrable Securities then outstanding may request registration under the
Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3, if available, or Form S-1, provided Form S-3 is not
available. The request shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities required to be registered. Upon receipt of such
request, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than 15 days following receipt thereof) deliver notice of such request to
all other holders of Registrable Securities who shall then have 15 days from the date such notice is given to notify the Company in writing
of their desire to be included in such registration. The Company shall cause the registration statement to be filed (or confidentially
submitted in draft form to the SEC) within 60 days after the date on which the initial request is given and shall use its commercially
reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter. The
Company shall not be required to effect a registration statement more one time for the holders of Registrable Securities as a group;
provided, that a registration statement shall not count as a requested registration statement under this section unless and until it
has become effective and the Holders requesting such registration are able to register and sell at least 75% of the Registrable Securities
requested to be included in such registration.
