are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability;
(iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the

and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the

and forms. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures of

Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby is merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the Securities. The

Solvency. Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of the applicable Closing Date, after giving effect
to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder: (i) the fair saleable value of the
Company’s assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts
and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute
unreasonably small capital to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs
taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, consolidated and projected capital
requirements and capital availability thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds
the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash,
would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company
does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts
of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to
believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within
one year from the applicable Closing Date. Schedule 3.1(aa) sets forth as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and unsecured
Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which the Company or any Subsidiary has commitments. For the purposes of

contingent obligations in respect of indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the Company’s
consolidated balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection
or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (z) the present value of any lease payments in excess of $50,000
due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with
respect to any Indebtedness.

reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental
assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations and
(iii) has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of all material taxes for periods subsequent
to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to
be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company know of no basis for any such claim.


 


(ll)  Seniority. As of each Closing
Date, no Indebtedness or other claim against the Company is senior to the Notes in right of payment, whether with respect to interest
or upon liquidation or dissolution, or otherwise, other than indebtedness secured by purchase money security interests (which is
senior only as to underlying assets covered thereby) and capital lease obligations (which is senior only as to the property covered
thereby).

Sections 3.2(f) and 4.12 hereof), it is understood and acknowledged by the Company that: (i) the Purchaser has not been asked by
the Company to agree, nor has the Purchaser agreed, to desist from purchasing or selling, long and/or short, securities of the
Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued by the Company or to hold the Securities for any specified
term; (ii) past or future open market or other transactions by the Purchaser, specifically including, without limitation, Short
Sales or “derivative” transactions, before or after the closing of this or future private placement transactions, may
negatively impact the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities; (iii) the Purchaser, and counter-parties
in “derivative” transactions to which the Purchaser is a party, directly or indirectly, may presently have a “short”
position in the Common Stock; and (iv) each Purchaser shall not be deemed to have any affiliation with or control over any arm’s
length counter-party in any “derivative” transaction. The Company further understands and acknowledges that (y) one
or more Purchasers may engage in hedging activities at various times during the period that the Securities are outstanding, including,
without limitation, during the periods that the value of the Underlying Shares deliverable with respect to Securities are being
determined, and (z) such hedging activities (if any) could reduce the value of the existing stockholders' equity interests in the
Company at and after the time that the hedging activities are being conducted.  The Company acknowledges that such aforementioned
hedging activities do not constitute a breach of any of the Transaction Documents.

Company setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to the execution
hereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby
separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct
knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets,
the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that
made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement.  Other than to other Persons party
to this Agreement, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction
(including the existence and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, nothing contained
herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to the identification of the availability
of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future.


 


The Company
acknowledges and agrees that the representations contained in Section 3.2 shall not modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s
right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations and warranties
contained in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this
Agreement or the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby.

OTHER
AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES 


 


4.1        Transfer Restrictions.


 


(a)
  The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws.  In connection with
any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate
of a Purchaser or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof
to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and
substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration
of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act.  As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree
in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser under this Agreement.


 


(b)
  The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1, of a legend on any of the Securities
in the following form:


 


[NEITHER]
THIS SECURITY [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS [CONVERTIBLE] HAS [NOT] BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO,
THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL
OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.  THIS
SECURITY [AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON [CONVERSION] OF THIS SECURITY] MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN
ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR”
AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES. 


 


The
Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered
broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited
investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement
and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees
or secured parties.  Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of
legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith.  Further, no notice
shall be required of such pledge.  At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver
such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or
transfer of the Securities.


 






    	24



    	 



    

 


(c)
  Certificates evidencing the Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b)
hereof): (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act; (ii) following
any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144; (iii) if such Underlying Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144;
or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations
and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). The Company shall upon request of a Purchaser and at such Purchaser’s
expense cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after any of the events described in (i)-(iv)
in the preceding sentence if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder (with a copy to the applicable
Purchaser and its broker). If all or any portion of a Note is converted at a time when there
is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Underlying Shares, or if such Underlying Shares may be sold under
Rule 144 or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations
and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) then such Underlying Shares shall be issued free of all legends.  The
Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c),
it will, no later than two Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate
representing Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend Removal
Date”), instruct the Transfer Agent to deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such
shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends.  The Company may not make any notation on its records or
give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.  Certificates
for Underlying Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting
the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by such Purchaser.


 


(d)
In addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, $1,000 per Trading Day for each Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date until such certificate
is delivered without a legend. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s
failure to deliver certificates representing any Securities as required by the Transaction Documents, and such Purchaser shall
have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance
and/or injunctive relief.


 






    	25



    	 



    




 


4.2        Acknowledgment of Dilution.  The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions.  The Company further
acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, its obligation to issue the Underlying
Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim,
delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company may have against any Purchaser and regardless
of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company.


 


4.3        Furnishing of Information; Public Information.


 


(a)
  The Company covenants to maintain the registration of the Common Stock under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act
and to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to
be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act.


 


(b)    At
any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof and ending at such time that all of
the Securities may be sold without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without
restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information
requirement under Rule 144(c) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to such Purchaser’s other available
remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such
delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities, an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate Subscription
Amount of such Purchaser’s Securities on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30th)
day (pro-rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information
Failure is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no longer required  for the Purchasers to transfer the
Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144.  The payments to which a Purchaser shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4.3(b)
are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.”  Public Information Failure Payments shall
be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are
incurred and (ii) the third (3rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments
is cured.  In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public
Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in
full. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure, and
such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a
decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. 


 






    	26



    	 



    

 


4.4        Integration.  The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of
any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities
in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities or that would be integrated
with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require
shareholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing
of such subsequent transaction. 


 


4.5        Conversion and Exercise Procedures.  The form of Notice of Conversion included in the Notes sets forth the totality of
the procedures required of the Purchasers in order to convert the Notes.  Without limiting the preceding sentences, no
ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization)
of any Notice of Conversion form be required in order to convert the Note.  No additional legal opinion, other information
or instructions shall be required of the Purchasers to convert their Notes.  The Company shall honor conversions of the
Notes and shall deliver Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction
Documents.


 


4.6        Shareholder Rights Plan.  No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the Company, any other
Person, that any Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison
pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter
adopted by the Company, or that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue
of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers.


 


4.7        Non-Public Information.  Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Documents, the Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any other Person acting on its behalf, will provide
any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information,
unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have entered into a written agreement with the Company regarding the confidentiality
and use of such information.  The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing
covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.


 


4.8        Use of Proceeds.  The Company shall use the net proceeds hereunder at its sole discretion.


 






    	27



    	 



    

 


4.9        Indemnification of Purchasers.   Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.10, the Company will indemnify and
hold each Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with
a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person
who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the
directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent
role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling persons (each,
a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs
and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs
of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or (b) any action
instituted against the Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of
the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents (unless such action is based upon a breach of such Purchaser Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under
the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser Party may have with any such stockholder or any violations
by such  Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which constitutes
fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance).  If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party
in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company
in writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable
to the Purchaser Party.  Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate
in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the
extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed
after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable
opinion of counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser
Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel.  The
Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without
the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only
to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.  The
indemnification required by this Section 4.10 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the
investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred.  The indemnity agreements contained herein
shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities
the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.


 



4.10        Reservation and
Listing of Securities.


 


(a)
  The Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Transaction
Documents in such amount as may then be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents.


 






    	28



    	 



    

 


(b)
  If, on any date, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than 300%
of the Required Minimum on such date, then the Board of Directors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Company’s
certificate or articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to at least 300%
of the Required Minimum at such time, as soon as possible and in any event not later than the 75th day after such date.


 


(c)
  The Company shall, if applicable: (i) in the time and manner required by the principal Trading Market, prepare and file
with such Trading Market an additional shares listing application covering a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to
the Required Minimum on the date of such application; (ii) take all steps necessary to cause such shares of Common Stock to be
approved for listing or quotation on such Trading Market as soon as possible thereafter; (iii) provide to the Purchasers evidence
of such listing or quotation; and (iv) maintain the listing or quotation of such Common Stock on any date at least equal to the
Required Minimum on such date on such Trading Market or another Trading Market.


 


4.11        Equal Treatment of Purchasers.  No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall
be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the
same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to this Agreement. Further, the Company shall not make any payment of
principal or interest on the Notes in amounts which are disproportionate to the respective principal amounts outstanding on the
Notes at any applicable time.  For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each
Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as
a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition
or voting of Securities or otherwise.


 


4.12        Certain Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants
that neither it, nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any Short Sales,
of any of the Company’s securities during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending on  the
date that the Notes are no longer outstanding (provided that this provision shall not prohibit any sales made where a corresponding
Notice of Conversion is tendered to the Company and the shares received upon such conversion or exercise are used to close out
such sale) (a “Prohibited Short Sale”). 


 


4.13        Right of First Refusal.


(a)
The Company shall not issue Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents or debt to any Person other than the Purchaser for a
period of sixty (60) days from the date of this Agreement. From the date hereof until
the date that is the 12-month anniversary of the last Closing, upon any issuance by the Company of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents
or debt for cash consideration, Indebtedness or a combination of units hereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), the Purchaser
shall have the right to participate in up to an amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to 100% of the Subsequent Financing (the
“Participation Maximum”) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing.


 






    	29



    	 



    

 


(b)
 At least five (5) Trading Days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to the
Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall
ask the Purchaser if it wants to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”).
Upon the request of the Purchaser, and only upon a request by the Purchaser, for a Subsequent Financing Notice, the Company shall
promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to the Purchaser. The
Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of
proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Person or Persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed
to be effected and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.


 


(c)
 If the Purchaser desires to participate in such Subsequent Financing, the Purchaser must provide written notice to
the Company that the Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of the Purchaser’s participation,
and representing and warranting that the Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set
forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.


 


(d)
  If notifications by the Purchaser of its willingness to participate in the Subsequent Financing (or to cause their
designees to participate) is, in the aggregate, less than the total amount of the Subsequent Financing, then the Company may effect
the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.


 


(e)
  The Company must provide the Purchaser with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and the Purchaser will again have
the right of participation set forth above in this Section 4.13, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent
Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty (30)
Trading Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice.


 


(f)
  The Company and the Purchaser agree that if the Purchaser elects to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the
transaction documents related to the Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision whereby the Purchaser shall be
required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any of the Securities purchased hereunder or be required to consent to any
amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, this Agreement, without the
prior written consent of such Purchaser.


 


(g)
  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.13 and unless otherwise agreed to by the Purchaser, the
Company shall either confirm in writing to the Purchaser that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been
abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the securities in the Subsequent Financing, in either case in such
a manner such that such Purchaser will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the tenth (10th)
Trading Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such tenth (10th) Trading Day, no public disclosure
regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such
transaction has been received by the Purchaser, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the Purchaser shall
not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.



 






    	30



    	 



    

 


(h)
  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.13 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance.


 


4.14        Securities
Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall (a) by 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day immediately following the
date hereof, issue a press release disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (b) file a Current
Report on Form 8-K, including the Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto, with the Commission within the time required by the
Exchange Act. From and after the issuance of such press release, the Company represents to the Purchaser that it shall have publicly
disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to any of the Purchasers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or
any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. The Company and the Purchaser shall consult with each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor the Purchaser shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make
any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of the Purchaser, or without
the prior consent of the Purchaser, with respect to any press release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the
other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not
publicly disclose the name of the Purchaser, or include the name of the Purchaser in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory
agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, except: (a) as required by federal securities law
in connection with any registration statement contemplated by this Agreement and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required
by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchaser with prior notice of such disclosure
permitted under this clause (b).


 


4.15        Form D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company
agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly
upon request of the Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order
to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the Purchaser at the applicable Closing under applicable
securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly
upon request of the Purchaser.


 


4.16        Post-Closing Covenants. The Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver to the Purchaser within thirty (30) days from the date hereof:


 






    	31



    	 



    

 


(a)
  A Deposit Account Control Agreement, duly executed by the Company and the bank or financial institution, in a form
reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser; and


 


(b)
 The Warehouseman’s Waivers, duly executed by the Company and each of the landlords set forth in Schedule A to
the Security Agreement, in forms reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser.

then outstanding or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived provision is sought.  No
waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing
waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof,
nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.


 


5.6        Headings.  The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be

5.7        Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors
and permitted assigns.  The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the

against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents)
shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York.  Each party hereby irrevocably
submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan 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 any such court,
that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an 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 Agreement 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 law. If either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any provisions
of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to the obligations of the Company under Section 4.10, the prevailing party in such
action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and
expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

5.10        Survival.  The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closings and the delivery of
the Securities.


 


5.11        Execution.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall
be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered
to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any
signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature
shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same
force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.


 


5.12        Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction
to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use
their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result
as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention
of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any
of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.


 


5.13        Rescission and Withdrawal Right.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting
any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or
option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein
provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company,
any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, however,
that in the case of a rescission of a conversion of a Note, the applicable Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of
Common Stock subject to any such rescinded conversion notice concurrently with the return to such Purchaser of the aggregate exercise
price paid to the Company for such shares.

5.14        Replacement
of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the
Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of
mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of
evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction.  The applicant for a new
certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary
indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.


 


5.15        Remedies.
In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each
of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction
Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by
reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any
action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.


 


5.16        Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction
Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement
or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from,
disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person
under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action),
then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived
and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.


 


5.17        Usury.
To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim,
and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or
at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by any Purchaser in
order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company
under the Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized
under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of
interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company
may be obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum
contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or
any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will
be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from the effective date thereof forward, unless such application
is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is
paid by the Company to any Purchaser with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess shall
be applied by such Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the
manner of handling such excess to be at such Purchaser’s election.

5.18        Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights.  The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction
Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way
for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document.  Nothing
contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be
deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a
presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its
rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and
it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.  Each
Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents.


 


5.19        Liquidated Damages.  The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing
under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated
damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial
liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.


 


5.20        Legal Fees. At the First Closing, the Company has agreed to pay the Purchaser $20,000 for its legal fees at the First Closing.


 


5.21        Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc.  If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of
any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised
on the next succeeding Business Day.


 


5.22        Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to
revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved
against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto.
In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to
adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common
Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement.


 


5.23        WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY
OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY,
UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
