2.02       Reservation
of Rights.


 


(a)       The
execution and delivery of this Agreement by HT, and the acceptance by HT of performance by the Company hereunder (i) shall not
constitute a waiver or release of any Existing Event of Default and (ii) except as expressly provided in Section 2.01, shall
be without prejudice to, and is not a waiver or release of any right of HT to exercise any and all rights conferred on it under
the Transaction Documents or at law or in equity in respect of any Existing Event of Default or otherwise.


 






    	 	2

Company acknowledges and agrees that HT expressly reserves all of its rights, remedies, claims and causes of action under the Transaction
Documents and pursuant to applicable law, including, without limitation, in regard to the property subject to security interests

(d)       Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the agreement in Section 2.01 is not intended and shall not be deemed or construed
to constitute a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default that hereafter may occur under any Transaction Document or to establish

the Forbearance Termination Date or to enter into any further agreement in respect of the Existing Events of Default.

3.01       Existing
Events of Default. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Events of Default set forth in Schedule I to

respects except (i) to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case

warranties are not true and correct as a result of any of the Existing Events of Default.


 






    	 	3	 



     

    

 


3.03       Acknowledgment
of Indebtedness. The Company hereby acknowledges, confirms, and agrees that as of the date hereof, the Company is indebted
to HT in the principal amount of $17,500,000, in addition to interest, expenses, fees and other Event of Default Acceleration Amount.
The Company hereby acknowledges, confirms, and agrees that (i) all Event of Default Acceleration Amount, including interest accrued
and accruing thereon, and all fees, costs, expenses, and other charges now or hereafter payable to HT, in each case in accordance
with the terms of the Note, are unconditionally owing by the Company, and (ii) that the Company has entered an Event of Default
Conversion Period as a result of the existence of the Existing Events of Default, in each case without offset, defense, or counterclaim
of any kind, nature, or description whatsoever.


 


3.04       Ratification;

obligations owing to HT under the Transaction Documents are hereby reaffirmed; and (b) the Transaction Documents are the legal,
valid and binding obligations of the Company and are enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms,
except as enforceability may be limited by applicable equitable principles or by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally.


 


3.05       No
Default.  Except for the Existing Events of Default, no other Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or

that as of the date hereof, it is not aware of any prospective Event of Default other than the Existing Events of Default.


 


3.06       Additional
Events of Default. The parties hereto acknowledge, confirm, and agree that any misrepresentation by the Company or any failure
of the Company to comply with the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in this Agreement will constitute an immediate
default under this Agreement and an immediate Event of Default under the Note. Notwithstanding the agreement to forbear contained
in Section 2.01 of the Agreement, in the event that any Person, other than HT, at any time exercises for any reason (including,
without limitation, by reason of any present or future Event of Default, or otherwise) any of its rights or remedies against the
Company or against the Company's properties or assets, in each case, of the type that would constitute an Event of Default under
the terms and provisions of the Note, then such occurrence shall also be deemed to constitute an immediate Event of Default hereunder
and under the Note.


 


3.07       Binding
Effect of Documents. The Company hereby represents, warrants, and covenants that this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed,
and delivered to HT by the Company, is enforceable in accordance with its terms, and is in full force and effect.

Conflict. The Company hereby represents, warrants, and covenants that the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement
by the Company will not violate any requirement of law or contractual obligation of the Company and will not result in, or require,

4.02       Amendment
to Company’s Election to Pay Stated Interest in Cash or Common Stock. Section 5(B) of the Note is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety as follows:


 


“Company’s
Election to Pay Stated Interest in Cash or Common Stock. At least ten (10) Trading Days (but no more than twenty (20) Trading
Days) prior to an Interest Payment Date, the Company, if it desires to elect to make a payment of Stated Interest with respect
to such Interest Payment Date, entirely or partially, in cash, shall deliver to the Holder a written notice of such election stating
which portion thereof the Company has elected to pay in cash (a “Interest Cash Payment Notice”), and such amount
shall be paid on the applicable Interest Payment Date in cash pursuant to Section 5(A) (and such election shall be irrevocable
as to such payment of Stated Interest (or portion thereof)). Failure to timely deliver such written notice to the Holder shall
be deemed an election by the Company to pay the Stated Interest (or applicable portion thereof) with respect to such Interest Payment
Date in shares of Common Stock, subject to the terms hereof. With respect to any Interest Payment Date for which the Company has
made a deemed election to pay Stated Interest (or any applicable portion thereof) in shares of Common Stock in accordance with
this Section 5(B), (i) the Holder shall have the right to allocate all or any portion of the applicable payment of Stated
Interest (or applicable portion thereof) to one or more Scheduled Trading Days (any such date, an “Interest Stock Payment
Date”) during the period beginning on, and including, the applicable Interest Payment Date and ending on, and including,
the Scheduled Trading Day immediately before the subsequent Interest Payment Date (the “Interest Stock Payment Period”)
or defer such payment of Stated Interest (or applicable portion thereof) to any future Interest Payment Date selected by the Holder;
and (ii) the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of validly issued, fully paid and Freely Tradable shares of Common Stock
equal to the quotient (rounded up to the closest whole number) obtained by dividing such payment of Stated Interest (or any applicable
portion thereof) by the Market Stock Payment Price as of such Interest Stock Payment Date. The Holder must provide notice to the
Company of its election of any Interest Stock Payment Date and the applicable portion of Stated Interest it is electing to receive
on each such Interest Stock Payment Date no later than 4:30 p.m. New York Time on such Interest Stock Payment Date. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Company will not have the right to, and will not, make any payment of Stated Interest (or
any applicable portion thereof) in shares of Common Stock if the Equity Conditions are not satisfied for each VWAP Trading Day
occurring between the date that is five (5) Trading Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date and the applicable Interest
Stock Payment Date, and such payment of Stated Interest (or any applicable portion thereof) shall instead be paid in cash in accordance
with Section 5(A), unless such failure of the Equity Conditions to be so satisfied is waived in writing by the Holder, which
waiver may be granted or withheld by the Holder in its sole discretion. The Company shall not pay any portion of a payment of Stated
Interest in shares of Common Stock unless the Holder has designated an Interest Stock Payment Date for such portion. Any portion
of a payment of Stated Interest not paid in shares of Common Stock because the Holder did not allocate such payment of Stated Interest
(or applicable portion thereof) to a Scheduled Trading Day during the applicable Interest Stock Payment Period or because the Holder
elected to defer the receipt of such payment of Stated Interest (or portion thereof) during the applicable Interest Stock Payment
Period will be automatically deferred to the next Interest Payment Date or such future Interest Payment Date as was elected by
the Holder, as applicable. Any such shares of Common Stock will be delivered by the Company to the Holder on or before the second
(2nd) Business Day following the applicable Interest Stock Payment Date.”

(20) Trading Days) prior to an Optional Redemption Date, the Company, if it desires to elect to make an Optional Redemption Payment
with respect to such Optional Redemption Date, entirely or partially, in cash, shall deliver to the Holder a written notice of
such election stating which portion thereof the Company has elected to pay in cash (an “Optional Redemption Cash Payment
Notice”) (and such election shall be irrevocable as to such Optional Redemption Date). Failure to timely deliver such
written notice to the Holder shall be deemed an election by the Company to pay the Optional Redemption Payment (or applicable portion
thereof) with respect to such Optional Redemption Date in shares of Common Stock, subject to the terms hereof. With respect to
any Optional Redemption Date for which the Company has made a deemed election to make an Optional Redemption Payment (or any applicable
portion thereof) in shares of Common Stock in accordance with this Section 5(C), (i) the Holder shall have the right to
allocate all or any portion of the applicable Optional Redemption Payment (or applicable portion thereof) to one or more Scheduled
Trading Days (any such date, an “Optional Redemption Stock Payment Date”) during the period beginning on, and
including, the applicable Optional Redemption Date and ending on, and including, the Scheduled Trading Day immediately before the
subsequent Optional Redemption Date (the “Optional Redemption Stock Payment Period”) or defer such Optional
Redemption Payment (or applicable portion thereof) to any future Optional Redemption Date selected by the Holder; and (ii) the

thereof) by the Market Stock Payment Price as of such Optional Redemption Stock Payment Date. The Holder must provide notice to
the Company of its election of any Optional Redemption Stock Payment Date and the applicable portion of the Optional Redemption
Payment it is electing to receive on each such Optional Redemption Stock Payment Date no later than 4:30 p.m. New York Time on
such Optional Redemption Stock Payment Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company will not have the right
to, and will not, make any Optional Redemption Payment (or any applicable portion thereof) in shares of Common Stock if the Equity
Conditions are not satisfied for each VWAP Trading Day occurring between the date that is five (5) Trading Days prior to the applicable
Optional Redemption Date and the applicable Optional Redemption Stock Payment Date, and such Optional Redemption Payment (or any
applicable portion thereof) shall instead be paid in cash in accordance with Section 5(A), unless such failure of the Equity
Conditions to be so satisfied is waived in writing by the Holder, which waiver may be granted or withheld by the Holder in its
sole discretion. The Company shall not pay any portion of the Optional Redemption Payment in shares of Common Stock unless the
Holder has designated an Optional Redemption Stock Payment Date for such portion. Any portion of the Optional Redemption Payment
not paid in shares of Common Stock because the Holder did not allocate such Optional Redemption Payment (or applicable portion
thereof) to a Scheduled Trading Day during the applicable Optional Redemption Stock Payment Period or because the Holder elected
to defer the receipt of such Optional Redemption Payment (or portion thereof) during the applicable Optional Redemption Stock Payment
Period will be automatically deferred to the next Optional Redemption Date or such future Optional Redemption Date as was elected
by the Holder, as applicable. Any such shares of Common Stock will be delivered by the Company to the Holder on or before the second
(2nd) Business Day following the applicable Optional Redemption Stock Payment Date.

to Required Reserve Amount Under the SPA. Section 4(j) of the SPA is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:


 


“Reservation
of Shares. So long as any of the Convertible Notes or Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary
to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon conversion or redemption of the Convertible Notes
and exercise of the Warrants, no less than (i) a number of shares of Common Stock equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of
(1) the then-outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Note; divided by (2) the Floor Price
(as of November 30, 2020 without regard to any future splits or stock combinations), and (ii) fifteen million (15,000,000) shares
of Common Stock to satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock under the Warrants (collectively, the
 “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant
to this Section 4(j) be reduced other than in connection with any stock combination, reverse stock split or other similar transaction
or proportionally in connection with any conversion and/or redemption, as applicable, of the Convertible Notes, or the exercise
of the Warrants. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is not sufficient to
meet the Required Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient
number of shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet
the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares,
obtain stockholder approval (if required) of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and voting the management shares
of the Company in favor of an increase in the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number of authorized shares is
sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount.”
