a.
Investment Purpose. As of the date hereof, the Buyer is purchasing the Note and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of or otherwise pursuant to the Note (such shares of Common Stock being collectively referred to herein as the “Conversion

b.
Accredited Investor Status. The Buyer is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of

1933 Act; or may be sold pursuant to an applicable exemption from registration, the Conversion Shares may bear a restrictive legend
in substantially the following form:


 


“THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES
ACT”), OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE PLEDGED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED
UNLESS (1) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT THERETO IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS OR (2) THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER OF SUCH SECURITIES, WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION
ARE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE ISSUER’S TRANSFER AGENT, THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, HYPOTHECATED
OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS.”


 




    	 	2	 



     


    

 


The
legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of any Security
upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required by applicable state securities laws, (a) such Security is registered for
sale under an effective registration statement filed under the 1933 Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to an exemption from
registration without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold,
or (b) such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel
in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Security may be made without registration under
the 1933 Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected. The Buyer agrees to sell
all Securities, including those represented by a certificate(s) from which the legend has been removed, in compliance with applicable
prospectus delivery requirements, if any. In the event that the Company does not accept the opinion of counsel provided by the
Buyer with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144, at the Deadline,
it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Note.

Transfer Agent Resolution”) to be completed by the Buyer and delivered to the Company’s transfer agent, by the Buyer
together with a conversion notice and appropriate opinion of counsel in connection with each conversion of the Note. The Company
hereby gives Buyer the authority to complete and deliver the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Resolution to the Company’s transfer
agent in connection with each conversion of the Note. In the event that the Company proposes to replace its transfer agent, the
Company shall provide, prior to the effective date of such replacement, a fully executed irrevocable transfer agent letter in
a form acceptable to the Buyer (including but not limited to the provision to irrevocably reserve shares of Common Stock in the
Reserved Amount as such term is defined in the Note) signed by the successor transfer agent to Company and the Company. Prior
to registration of the Conversion Shares under the 1933 Act or the date on which the Conversion Shares may be sold pursuant to

agent not to transfer or delay, impair, and/or hinder its transfer agent in transferring (or issuing)(electronically or in certificated
form) any certificate for Conversion Shares to be issued to the Buyer upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to the Note as

or impairs, delays, and/or hinders its transfer agent from removing) any restrictive legend (or to withdraw any stop transfer
instructions in respect thereof) on any certificate for any Conversion Shares issued to the Buyer upon conversion of or otherwise
pursuant to the Note as and when required by the Note and/or this Agreement; and (iv) it shall as of April 30, 2020 establish
and maintain a reserve of shares of common stock of the Company (set aside shares from its treasury stock and not issue such shares

Note; and such share reserve shall at all times after April 30, 2020 equal at least six times the number of shares that would
be issuable upon full conversion of the Note (assuming that the 4.99% limitation set forth in Section 1.1 of the note is not in

shall permit the transfer, and, in the case of the Conversion Shares, promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more
certificates, free from restrictive legend, in such name and in such denominations as specified by the Buyer. The Company acknowledges
that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Buyer, by vitiating the intent and purpose
of the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations
under this Section 5 may be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions
of this Section, that the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any
breach and requiring immediate transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security
being required.
