RECITALS


 


WHEREAS, on June 2, 2015,
the Company sold to the Holder pursuant to a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) shares of
the Company’s newly designated Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) with such
rights and preferences as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series G Preferred

documents, the “Transaction Documents”));


 


WHEREAS, the Holder currently

WHEREAS, the Company is
contemplating a financing transaction (the “Proposed Financing Transaction”) whereby the Company will sell shares
of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) to certain accredited investors placed
by Dougherty & Company, LLC (“Dougherty”);


 


WHEREAS, as a condition
to the consummation of the Proposed Financing Transaction, the Company and Dougherty desire to restructure the Company’s
capitalization structure, as set forth herein;


 


WHEREAS, immediately after
the closing of the Proposed Financing Transaction (the “Conversion Time”), subject to the terms hereof, in
consideration for the execution and delivery of this Agreement, all shares of Preferred Stock held by the Holder shall be converted
into shares of Common Stock, based on the conversion price or ratio set forth in the Certificate of Designation then in effect,
without further action by the Holder (the “Preferred Stock Conversion”);


 


WHEREAS, pursuant to Section
8(b) of the Certificate of Designation and Section 2(d) of the Subscription Agreement, the Company is prohibited from issuing

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the foregoing, of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Holder hereby agree follows:


 


AGREEMENT


 


1.      
Recitals. The parties hereto agree that the Recitals set forth above are true and correct and are incorporated into this
Agreement by this reference.


 


2.     
Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein, all terms used herein shall have the definitions specified in the Certificate
of Designation and the Subscription Agreement.


 


3.     
Holder Representations. The Holder hereby confirms and acknowledges that the aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock
currently held by the Holder are set forth on Schedule A attached hereto. The Holder owns the Preferred Stock free and clear
of any and all liens, claims, encumbrances, preemptive rights, right of first refusal and adverse interests of any kind.
Holder has the requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby
and otherwise to carry out Holder’s obligations hereunder. No consent, approval or agreement of any individual or entity
is required to be obtained by the Holder in connection with the execution and performance by the Holder of this Agreement or the
execution and performance by the Holder of any agreements, instruments or other obligations entered into in connection with this
Agreement. There is no private or governmental action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or investigation pending before any
agency, court or tribunal, foreign or domestic, or, to the Holder’s knowledge, threatened against the Holder or any of Holder’s
properties. There is no judgment, decree or order against the Holder that could prevent, enjoin, alter or delay any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. There are no material claims, actions, suits, proceedings, inquiries, labor disputes or investigations
pending or, to the Holder’s knowledge, threatened against the Holder or any of its assets, at law or in equity or by or before
any governmental entity or in arbitration or mediation. No bankruptcy, receivership or debtor relief proceedings are pending or,
to the Holder’s knowledge, threatened against the Holder. The Holder is an “Accredited Investor” as defined in

4.     
Automatic Preferred Stock Conversion.


 


(a)   
Favored Nations Provision. The Company and the Holder acknowledge
that the Proposed Financing Transaction would be considered a Lower Priced Issuance that requires the consent of the Holder under
Section 8(b) of the Certificate of Designation and Section 2(d) of the Subscription Agreement. The Holder hereby consents to the
consummation of the Proposed Financing and in consideration therefore, the Company has agreed to issue the Holder such additional
securities such that the Holder would hold such number of shares of Common Stock (on a post-conversion basis) had the Holder paid
a per share price for the Preferred Stock equal to the per share price in the Proposed Financing Transaction. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Holder hereby waives any obligation of the Company to issue the Holder additional shares of Preferred Stock
(or to amend the Certificate of Designation in connection therewith) and the Company shall, at the Conversion Time, issue such
number of shares of Common Stock to the Holder that the Holder would have received had the Company consummated the Proposed Financing
Issuance in the form of Preferred Stock (such shares of Common Stock which are set forth on Annex A hereto, the “Adjustment
Shares”), subject to the provisions of Section 4(b) and 4(e) herein. 


 



    	 	2	 



     


    

 


(b)  
Preferred Stock Conversion. At the Conversion Time, the Preferred Stock Conversion shall automatically take effect without
any action on the part of the Holder such that the Holder shall receive that number of shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion
Shares”) as stipulated therein and as stated on Schedule A attached hereto along with the Adjustment Shares and
the Holder acknowledges, accepts and authorizes the foregoing Preferred Stock Conversion. To the extent that full conversion of
all shares of Preferred Stock held by the Holder (including the Adjustment Shares) would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to receive such number of Conversion Shares to such extent (or beneficial
ownership of such Conversion Shares as a result of such Preferred Stock Conversion to such extent) and such portion of such Preferred
Stock Conversion (or the issuance of such Adjustment Shares) to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such
time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in such Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined and
described below).


 


(c)   
Cancellation of the Preferred Stock. The Holder unconditionally acknowledges, affirms and agrees that simultaneously with
the Preferred Stock Conversion and delivery to the Holder of the Conversion Shares and the Adjustment Shares, the Preferred Stock
shall be deemed canceled, null and void, and the Company shall have no further obligation to the Holder with respect to the Preferred
Stock or the Certificate of Designation (except, with respect to the Certificate of Designation only to the extent such full Preferred
Stock Conversion or issuance of the Adjustment Shares is not limited pursuant to Sections 4(a) and 4(c) herein).


 


(d)   
Prospective Waiver of Favored Nations Provisions. At the Conversion
Time, other than with respect to the Proposed Financing Issuance, the Holder hereby irrevocably waives any obligation the Company
would have to obtain the consent of the Holder for a Lower Priced Issuance under Section 8(b) of the Certificate of Designation
and Section 2(d) of the Subscription Agreement with respect to any Preferred Stock not converted at the Conversion Time (or Adjustment
Shares not received) as a result of the restrictions set forth in Section 4(b) and 4(e) herein.


 



    	 	3	 



     


    

  


(e)   
Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Company shall not effect conversion of any Preferred Stock or issue any Adjustment
Shares, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise nor enforce any such right, pursuant this Section 4, to the extent
that after giving effect to the application of such rights, 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), 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 and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon application
this Section 4 with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which
would be issuable upon exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder
or any of its Affiliates.  Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4, beneficial ownership
shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“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 4, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the 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 Securities and Exchange 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 Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. 
Upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within three trading days confirm orally and 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 (subject to any beneficial ownership
limitations contained therein, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99%, (unless the Holder elects on
its signature page hereto a different amount as its own Beneficial Ownership Limitation) of the number of shares of the Common
Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon application of this Section
4 which would not exceed at such time the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior
notice to the Company, may increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4 (for the avoidance of doubt,
the Holder may on its signature page hereto to waive such Beneficial Ownership Limitation in its entirety (which such waiver shall
be effective 61 days’ after the Closing Date) or set a different amount as its own Beneficial Ownership Limitation) of the
number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon
application of this Section 4 which would not exceed at such time the Beneficial Ownership Limitation and the provisions of this
Section 4 shall continue to apply. Any such decrease will be effective immediately and any such increase 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 4 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. In the event the limitations
in this Section 4(e) would prevent the application of the Holder’s rights under Sections 4(a), 4(b) or 4(c), then such Holder
may exercise all such rights and comply with all obligations applicable thereto except that the delivery of Common Stock will be
deferred until such time as such Holder provides notice to the Company that such Holder may receive or beneficially own such Common
Stock which exceeds the Beneficial Ownership Limitation applicable to such Holder without exceeding such then applicable Beneficial
Ownership Limitation. “Affiliate” means any person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries,
controls or is controlled by or is under common control with a person, as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 405 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.


 


5.      [omitted].


 


6.      Independent Nature of Holder's Obligations and Rights. The obligations of the Holder
under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Buyers, and the Holder shall not be
responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Buyer under any Other Agreement. Nothing contained
herein, any Other Agreement or the Transaction Documents, and no action taken by the Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed
to constitute the Holder and Other Buyers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or
create a presumption that the Holder and Other Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement any Other Agreement or the Transaction Documents, and the
Company acknowledges that the Holder and the Other Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any Other Agreement or the Transaction Documents. The Company
and the Holder confirm that the Holder has independently participated in the negotiation of the transactions contemplated
hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. The Holder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its
rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, any Other Agreement or the
Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any
proceeding for such purpose.

by, any other person.

respective officers, directors, employees or agents) provided to the Holder.


 


9.     
Most Favored Nation. The Company hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and covenants and agrees from and
after the date hereof that none of the terms offered to any person with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (the conversion
of the Company’s currently outstanding preferred stock), is or will be more favorable to such person than those of the Holder
under this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 9 shall apply similarly and equally to each Other Agreement.


 


10.    Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, regardless of the

and on behalf of its representatives, to submit to the jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction located in the State
of New York, County of New York, to resolve any dispute relating to this agreement and waive any right to move to dismiss or transfer
any such action brought in any such court on the basis of any objection to personal jurisdiction or venue.


 


11.    Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed by the Company and the Holder in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original,
but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
