(this “Agreement”), dated as of March 21, 2018, is entered into by and between FTE NETWORKS, INC., a Nevada
corporation (“Company”), and ST. GEORGE INVESTMENTS LLC, a Utah limited liability company, its successors and/or
assigns (“Investor”).


 


A. Company and
Investor are executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).


 


B. Investor desires
to purchase and Company desires to issue and sell, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, a Convertible Promissory
Note, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, in the original principal amount of $2,315,000.00 (the “Note”),
convertible into shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Company (the “Common Stock”), upon the
terms and subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in such Note, and (iii) the Origination Shares (as defined below).


 


C. This Agreement,
the Note, and all other certificates, documents, agreements, resolutions and instruments delivered to any party under or in connection
with this Agreement, as the same may be amended from time to time, are collectively referred to herein as the “Transaction
Documents”.


 


D. For purposes
of this Agreement: “Conversion Shares” means all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all or any
portion of the Note; and “Securities” means the Note, the Origination Shares, and the Conversion Shares.


 


NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the above recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Company and Investor hereby agree as follows:


 


1. Purchase
and Sale of Securities.


 


1.1. Purchase
of Securities. Company shall issue and sell to Investor and Investor shall purchase from Company the Note and 20,000 shares
of Company’s Common Stock (the “Origination Shares”). Original stock certificates representing the Origination
Shares are required to be delivered to Investor at Closing (as defined below). In consideration thereof, Investor shall pay the
Purchase Price (as defined below) to Company.


 


1.2. Form of
Payment. On the Closing Date (as defined below), Investor shall pay the Purchase Price to Company via wire transfer of immediately
available funds against delivery of the Note and the Origination Shares.


 


1.3. Closing
Date. Subject to the satisfaction (or written waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 below, the date
of the issuance and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (the “Closing Date”) shall be March 21,
2018, or such other mutually agreed upon date. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”)
shall occur on the Closing Date by means of the exchange by email of signed .pdf documents, but shall be deemed for all purposes
to have occurred at the offices of Hansen Black Anderson Ashcraft PLLC in Lehi, Utah.

1.5. Original
Issue Discount; Transaction Expense Amount. The Note carries an original issue discount of $300,000.00 (the “OID”).
In addition, Company agrees to pay $15,000.00 to Investor to cover Investor’s legal fees, accounting costs, due diligence,
monitoring and other transaction costs incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities (the “Transaction
Expense Amount”), all of which amount is included in the initial principal balance of the Note. The “Purchase
Price”, therefore, shall be $2,000,000.00, computed as follows: $2,315,000.00 initial principal balance, less the OID,
less the Transaction Expense Amount.

4. Company
Covenants. Until all of Company’s obligations under all of the Transaction Documents are paid and performed in full,
or within the timeframes otherwise specifically set forth below, Company will at all times comply with the following covenants:
(i) so long as Investor beneficially owns any of the Securities and for at least twenty (20) Trading Days (as defined in the Note)
thereafter, Company will timely file on the applicable deadline all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Sections
13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, and will take all reasonable action under its control to ensure that adequate current public information
with respect to Company, as required in accordance with Rule 144 of the 1933 Act, is publicly available, and will not terminate
its status as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder
would permit such termination; (ii) the Common Stock shall be listed or quoted for trading on any of (a) NYSE, (b) NASDAQ, (c)
OTCQX, or (d) OTCQB; (iii) when issued, the Conversion Shares and the Origination Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued,
fully paid for and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, claims, charges and encumbrances; (iv) trading in Company’s
Common Stock will not be suspended, halted, chilled, frozen, reach zero bid or otherwise cease on Company’s principal trading
market; (v) Company will not have more than (2) Variable Security Holders (as defined below), excluding Investor, without Investor’s
prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Investor’s sole and absolute discretion; (vi) Company
will not make any Variable Security Issuances after the Closing Date without Investor’s prior written consent, which may
be granted or withheld in Investor’s sole and absolute discretion; and (vii) at Closing and on the first day of each calendar
quarter for so long as the Note remains outstanding or on any other date during which the Note is outstanding, as may be requested
by Investor, Company shall cause its Chief Financial Officer to provide to Investor a certificate in substantially the form attached
hereto as Exhibit B (the “Officer’s Certificate”) certifying in his personal capacity and in his capacity
as Chief Financial Officer of Company the number of Variable Security Holders of Company as of the date the applicable Officer’s
Certificate is executed. For purposes hereof, the term “Variable Security Holder” means any holder of any Company
securities that (A) have or may have conversion rights of any kind, contingent, conditional or otherwise, in which the number of
shares that may be issued pursuant to such conversion right varies with the market price of the Common Stock, or (B) are or may
become convertible into Common Stock (including without limitation convertible debt, warrants or convertible preferred stock),
with a conversion price that varies with the market price of the Common Stock, even if such security only becomes convertible following
an event of default, the passage of time, or another trigger event or condition (each a “Variable Security Issuance”).
For avoidance of doubt, the issuance of shares of Common Stock under, pursuant to, in exchange for or in connection with any contract
or instrument, whether convertible or not, is deemed a Variable Security Issuance for purposes hereof if the number of shares of
Common Stock to be issued is based upon or related in any way to the market price of the Common Stock, including, but not limited
to, Common Stock issued in connection with a Section 3(a)(9) exchange, a Section 3(a)(10) settlement, or any other similar settlement
or exchange.


 


5. Conditions
to Company’s Obligation to Sell. The obligation of Company hereunder to issue and sell the Securities to Investor at
the Closing is subject to the satisfaction, on or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions:


 


5.1. Investor shall have executed
this Agreement and delivered the same to Company.


 


5.2. Investor shall
have delivered the Purchase Price to Company in accordance with Section 1.2 above.


 


6. Conditions
to Investor’s Obligation to Purchase. The obligation of Investor hereunder to purchase the Securities at the Closing
is subject to the satisfaction, on or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions, provided that these conditions
are for Investor’s sole benefit and may be waived by Investor at any time in its sole discretion:


 


6.1. Company shall
have executed this Agreement and the Note and delivered the same to Investor.


 


6.2. Investor shall have received
the Origination Shares.


 


6.3. Company’s
Chief Financial Officer shall have executed the Officer’s Certificate and delivered the same to Investor.


 


6.4. Company shall
have delivered to Investor a fully executed Irrevocable Letter of Instructions to Transfer Agent (the “TA Letter”)
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C acknowledged and agreed to in writing by Company’s transfer agent

6.5. Company shall
have delivered to Investor a fully executed Secretary’s Certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
D evidencing Company’s approval of the Transaction Documents.


 


6.6. Company shall
have delivered to Investor a fully executed Share Issuance Resolution substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E to
be delivered to the Transfer Agent.


 


6.7. Company shall
have delivered to Investor fully executed copies of all other Transaction Documents required to be executed by Company herein or
therein.


 


7. Reservation
of Shares. On the date hereof, Company will reserve 778,400 shares of Common Stock from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock to provide for all issuances of Common Stock under the Note (the “Share Reserve”). Company further agrees
to add additional shares of Common Stock to the Share Reserve in increments of 100,000 shares as and when requested by Investor
if as of the date of any such request the number of shares being held in the Share Reserve is less than four (4) times the number
of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing the Outstanding Balance (as defined in the Note) as of the date of the request by
the Conversion Price (as defined in the Note). Company shall further require the Transfer Agent to hold the shares of Common Stock
reserved pursuant to the Share Reserve exclusively for the benefit of Investor and to issue such shares to Investor promptly upon
Investor’s delivery of a conversion notice under the Note. Finally, Company shall require the Transfer Agent to issue shares
of Common Stock pursuant to the Note to Investor out of its authorized and unissued shares, and not the Share Reserve, to the extent
shares of Common Stock have been authorized, but not issued, and are not included in the Share Reserve. The Transfer Agent shall
only issue shares out of the Share Reserve to the extent there are no other authorized shares available for issuance and then only
with Investor’s written consent.


 


8. Terms of
Future Financings. So long as the Note is outstanding, upon any issuance by Company of any security with any term or condition
more favorable to the holder of such security or with a term in favor of the holder of such security that was not similarly provided
to Investor in the Transaction Documents, then Company shall notify Investor of such additional or more favorable term and such
term, at Investor’s option, shall become a part of the Transaction Documents for the benefit of Investor. Additionally, if
Company fails to notify Investor of any such additional or more favorable term, but Investor becomes aware that Company has granted
such a term to any third party, Investor may notify Company of such additional or more favorable term and such term shall become
a part of the Transaction Documents retroactive to the date on which such term was granted to the applicable third party. The types
of terms contained in another security that may be more favorable to the holder of such security include, but are not limited to,
terms addressing conversion discounts, conversion lookback periods, interest rates, original issue discounts, stock sale price,
conversion price per share, warrant coverage, warrant exercise price, and anti-dilution/conversion and exercise price resets.


 


9. No Shorting.
During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date the Note has been repaid in full or sold by Investor to
a third party that is not an affiliate of Investor, Investor will not directly or through an affiliate engage in any open market
Short Sales (as defined below) of the Common Stock; provided; however, that unless and until Company has affirmatively demonstrated
by the use of specific evidence that Investor is engaging in open market Short Sales, Investor shall be assumed to be in compliance
with the provisions of this Section 9 and Company shall remain fully obligated to fulfill all of its obligations under the Transaction
Documents; and provided, further, that (i) Company shall under no circumstances be entitled to request or demand that Investor
either (A) provide trading or other records of Investor or of any party or (B) affirmatively demonstrate that Investor or any other
party has not engaged in any such Short Sales in breach of these provisions as a condition to Company’s fulfillment of its
obligations under any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) Company shall not assert Investor’s or any other party’s failure
to demonstrate such absence of such Short Sales or provide any trading or other records of Investor or any other party as all or
part of a defense to any breach of Company’s obligations under any of the Transaction Documents, and (iii) Company shall
have no setoff right with respect to any such Short Sales. As used herein, “Short Sale” has the meaning provided
in Rule 3b-3 under the 1934 Act.

10. Miscellaneous.
The provisions set forth in this Section 10 shall apply to this Agreement, as well as all other Transaction Documents as if these
terms were fully set forth therein; provided, however, that in the event there is a conflict between any provision set forth in
this Section 10 and any provision in any other Transaction Document, the provision in such other Transaction Document shall govern.


 


10.1. Certain
Capitalized Terms. To the extent any capitalized term used in any Transaction Document is defined in any other Transaction
Document (as noted therein), such capitalized term shall remain applicable in the Transaction Document in which it is so used even
if the other Transaction Document (wherein such term is defined) has been released, satisfied, or is otherwise cancelled or terminated.


 


10.2. Arbitration
of Claims. The parties shall submit all Claims (as defined in Exhibit F) arising under this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document or any other agreement between the parties and their affiliates or any Claim relating to the relationship of the parties
to binding arbitration pursuant to the arbitration provisions set forth in Exhibit F attached hereto (the “Arbitration
Provisions”). The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Arbitration Provisions are unconditionally binding on
the parties hereto and are severable from all other provisions of this Agreement. By executing this Agreement, Company represents,
warrants and covenants that Company has reviewed the Arbitration Provisions carefully, consulted with legal counsel about such
provisions (or waived its right to do so), understands that the Arbitration Provisions are intended to allow for the expeditious
and efficient resolution of any dispute hereunder, agrees to the terms and limitations set forth in the Arbitration Provisions,
and that Company will not take a position contrary to the foregoing representations. Company acknowledges and agrees that Investor
may rely upon the foregoing representations and covenants of Company regarding the Arbitration Provisions.


 


10.3. Governing
Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction,
validity, interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Utah, without
giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Utah or any other jurisdiction)
that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Utah. Each party consents to and expressly
agrees that the exclusive venue for arbitration of any dispute arising out of or relating to any Transaction Document or the relationship
of the parties or their affiliates shall be in Salt Lake County, Utah. Without modifying the parties’ obligations to resolve
disputes hereunder pursuant to the Arbitration Provisions, for any litigation arising in connection with any of the Transaction
Documents (and notwithstanding the terms (specifically including any governing law and venue terms) of any transfer agent services
agreement or other agreement between the Transfer Agent and Company, such litigation specifically includes, without limitation
any action between or involving Company and the Transfer Agent under the TA Letter or otherwise related to Investor in any way
(specifically including, without limitation, any action where Company seeks to obtain an injunction, temporary restraining order,
or otherwise prohibit the Transfer Agent from issuing shares of Common Stock to Investor for any reason)), each party hereto hereby
(i) consents to and expressly submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake
County, Utah, (ii) expressly submits to the exclusive venue of any such court for the purposes hereof, (iii) agrees to not bring
any such action (specifically including, without limitation, any action where Company seeks to obtain an injunction, temporary
restraining order, or otherwise prohibit the Transfer Agent from issuing shares of Common Stock to Investor for any reason) outside
of any state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah, and (iv) waives any claim of improper venue and any claim or objection
that such courts are an inconvenient forum or any other claim, defense or objection to the bringing of any such proceeding in such
jurisdiction or to any claim that such venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. Finally, Company covenants and agrees
to name Investor as a party in interest in, and provide written notice to Investor in accordance with Section 10.13 below prior
to bringing or filing, any action (including without limitation any filing or action against any person or entity that is not a
party to this Agreement, including without limitation the Transfer Agent) that is related in any way to the Transaction Documents
or any transaction contemplated herein or therein, including without limitation any action brought by Company to enjoin or prevent
the issuance of any shares of Common Stock to Investor by the Transfer Agent, and further agrees to timely name Investor as a party
to any such action. Company acknowledges that the governing law and venue provisions set forth in this Section 10.3 are material
terms to induce Investor to enter into the Transaction Documents and that but for Company’s agreements set forth in this
Section 10.3 Investor would not have entered into the Transaction Documents.

10.4. Specific
Performance. Company acknowledges and agrees that irreparable damage may occur to Investor in the event that Company fails
to perform any material provision of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents in accordance with its specific terms.
It is accordingly agreed that Investor shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions
of this Agreement or such other Transaction Document and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, this
being in addition to any other remedy to which the Investor may be entitled under the Transaction Documents, at law or in equity.
For the avoidance of doubt, in the event Investor seeks to obtain an injunction against Company or specific performance of any
provision of any Transaction Document, such action shall not be a waiver of any right of Investor under any Transaction Document,
at law, or in equity, including without limitation its rights to arbitrate any Claim pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents.


 


10.5. Calculation
Disputes. Notwithstanding the Arbitration Provisions, in the case of a dispute as to any determination or arithmetic calculation
under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation, calculating the Outstanding Balance, Conversion Price, Conversion
Shares, or VWAP (as defined in the Note) (each, a “Calculation”), Company or Investor (as the case may be) shall
submit any disputed Calculation via email or facsimile with confirmation of receipt (i) within two (2) Trading Days after receipt
of the applicable notice giving rise to such dispute to Company or Investor (as the case may be) or (ii) if no notice gave rise
to such dispute, at any time after Investor learned of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute. If Investor and Company are
unable to agree upon such Calculation within two (2) Trading Days of such disputed Calculation being submitted to Company or Investor
(as the case may be), then Investor will promptly submit via email or facsimile the disputed Calculation to Unkar Systems Inc.
(“Unkar Systems”). Investor shall cause Unkar Systems to perform the Calculation and notify Company and Investor
of the results no later than ten (10) Trading Days from the time it receives such disputed Calculation. Unkar Systems’ determination
of the disputed Calculation shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error. Unkar Systems’ fee for performing
such Calculation shall be paid by the incorrect party, or if both parties are incorrect, by the party whose Calculation is furthest
from the correct Calculation as determined by Unkar Systems. In the event Company is the losing party, no extension of the Delivery
Date (as defined in the Note) shall be granted and Company shall incur all effects for failing to deliver the applicable shares
in a timely manner as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Investor may, in its sole discretion,
designate an independent, reputable investment bank or accounting firm other than Unkar Systems to resolve any such dispute and
in such event, all references to “Unkar Systems” herein will be replaced with references to such independent, reputable
investment bank or accounting firm so designated by Investor.

10.6. Counterparts.
Each Transaction Document may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one instrument. The parties hereto confirm that any electronic copy of another party’s executed
counterpart of a Transaction Document (or such party’s signature page thereof) will be deemed to be an executed original
thereof.


 


10.7. Document
Imaging. Investor shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to image or make copies of all or any selection of the agreements,
instruments, documents, and items and records governing, arising from or relating to any of Company’s loans, including, without
limitation, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and Investor may destroy or archive the paper originals. The parties
hereto (i) waive any right to insist or require that Investor produce paper originals, (ii) agree that such images shall be accorded
the same force and effect as the paper originals, (iii) agree that Investor is entitled to use such images in lieu of destroyed
or archived originals for any purpose, including as admissible evidence in any demand, presentment or other proceedings, and (iv)
further agree that any executed facsimile (faxed), scanned, emailed, or other imaged copy of this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document shall be deemed to be of the same force and effect as the original manually executed document.

this Agreement.


 


10.9. Severability.
In the event that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then
such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform
to such statute or rule of law. Any provision hereof which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.


 


10.10. Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Transaction Documents, contains the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither Company
nor Investor makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For the avoidance of doubt,
all prior term sheets or other documents between Company and Investor, or any affiliate thereof, related to the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents (collectively, “Prior Agreements”), that may have been entered into between Company
and Investor, or any affiliate thereof, are hereby null and void and deemed to be replaced in their entirety by the Transaction
Documents. To the extent there is a conflict between any term set forth in any Prior Agreement and the term(s) of the Transaction
Documents, the Transaction Documents shall govern.


 


10.11. No Reliance.
Company acknowledges and agrees that neither Investor nor any of its officers, directors, members, managers, representatives or
agents has made any representations or warranties to Company or any of its officers, directors, representatives, agents or employees
except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents and, in making its decision to enter into the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents, Company is not relying on any representation, warranty, covenant or promise of Investor or its officers,
directors, members, managers, agents or representatives other than as set forth in the Transaction Documents.

duties hereunder without the prior written consent of Investor.


 


10.15. Survival.
The representations and warranties of Company and the agreements and covenants set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing
hereunder notwithstanding any due diligence investigation conducted by or on behalf of Investor. Company agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless Investor and all its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, and agents for loss or damage arising as a result
of or related to any breach or alleged breach by Company of any of its representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this
Agreement or any of its covenants and obligations under this Agreement, including advancement of expenses as they are incurred.


 


10.16. Further
Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall
execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably request
in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.

10.17. Investor’s
Rights and Remedies Cumulative; Liquidated Damages. All rights, remedies, and powers conferred in this Agreement and the Transaction
Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies, and shall be in addition to every other right, power,
and remedy that Investor may have, whether specifically granted in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or existing
at law, in equity, or by statute, and any and all such rights and remedies may be exercised from time to time and as often and
in such order as Investor may deem expedient. The parties acknowledge and agree that upon Company’s failure to comply with
the provisions of the Transaction Documents, Investor’s damages would be uncertain and difficult (if not impossible) to accurately
estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and future share prices, Investor’s increased
risk, and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for Investor, among other reasons.
Accordingly, any fees, charges, and default interest due under the Note and the other Transaction Documents are intended by the
parties to be, and shall be deemed, liquidated damages (under Company’s and Investor’s expectations that any such liquidated
damages will tack back to the Closing Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144 under the 1933 Act). The
parties agree that such liquidated damages are a reasonable estimate of Investor’s actual damages and not a penalty, and
shall not be deemed in any way to limit any other right or remedy Investor may have hereunder, at law or in equity. The parties
acknowledge and agree that under the circumstances existing at the time this Agreement is entered into, such liquidated damages
are fair and reasonable and are not penalties. All fees, charges, and default interest provided for in the Transaction Documents
are agreed to by the parties to be based upon the obligations and the risks assumed by the parties as of the Closing Date and are
consistent with investments of this type. The liquidated damages provisions of the Transaction Documents shall not limit or preclude
a party from pursuing any other remedy available at law or in equity; provided, however, that the liquidated damages provided
for in the Transaction Documents are intended to be in lieu of actual damages.


 


10.18. Ownership
Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, if at
any time Investor would be issued shares of Common Stock under any of the Transaction Documents, but such issuance would cause
Investor (together with its affiliates) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding the Maximum Percentage (as defined in
the Note), then Company must not issue to Investor the shares that would cause Investor to exceed the Maximum Percentage. The shares
of Common Stock issuable to Investor that would cause the Maximum Percentage to be exceeded are referred to herein as the “Ownership
Limitation Shares”. Company shall reserve the Ownership Limitation Shares for the exclusive benefit of Investor. From
time to time, Investor may notify Company in writing of the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares that may be issued to Investor
without causing Investor to exceed the Maximum Percentage. Upon receipt of such notice, Company shall be unconditionally obligated
to immediately issue such designated shares to Investor, with a corresponding reduction in the number of the Ownership Limitation
Shares. For purposes of this Section, beneficial ownership of Common Stock will be determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act.


 


10.19. Attorneys’
Fees and Cost of Collection. In the event of any arbitration or action at law or in equity to enforce or interpret the terms
of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, the parties agree that the party who is awarded the most money (which,
for the avoidance of doubt, shall be determined without regard to any statutory fines, penalties, fees, or other charges awarded
to any party) shall be deemed the prevailing party for all purposes and shall therefore be entitled to an additional award of the
full amount of the attorneys’ fees, deposition costs, and expenses paid by such prevailing party in connection with arbitration
or litigation without reduction or apportionment based upon the individual claims or defenses giving rise to the fees and expenses.
Nothing herein shall restrict or impair an arbitrator’s or a court’s power to award fees and expenses for frivolous
or bad faith pleading. If (i) the Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing
arbitration or legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any arbitration or legal proceeding, or Investor otherwise
takes action to collect amounts due under the Note or to enforce the provisions of the Note, or (ii) there occurs any bankruptcy,
reorganization, receivership of Company or other proceedings affecting Company’s creditors’ rights and involving a
claim under the Note; then Company shall pay the costs incurred by Investor for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection
with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, expenses,
deposition costs, and disbursements.

10.20. Waiver.
No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting
the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or
consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent
or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.


 


10.21. Waiver
of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO DEMAND THAT ANY ACTION,
PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, OR THE RELATIONSHIPS
OF THE PARTIES HERETO BE TRIED BY JURY. THIS WAIVER EXTENDS TO ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO DEMAND A TRIAL BY JURY ARISING UNDER COMMON
LAW OR ANY APPLICABLE STATUTE, LAW, RULE OR REGULATION. FURTHER, EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SUCH PARTY IS KNOWINGLY AND
VOLUNTARILY WAIVING SUCH PARTY’S RIGHT TO DEMAND TRIAL BY JURY.


 


10.22. Time is
of the Essence. Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents.


 


10.23. No Changes;
Signature Pages. Company, as well as the person signing each Transaction Document on behalf of Company, represents and warrants
to Investor that it has not made any changes to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document except those that have been conspicuously
disclosed to Investor in a “redline” or similar draft of the applicable Transaction Document, which clearly marks all
changes Company has made to the applicable Transaction Document. Moreover, the versions of the Transaction Documents signed by
Company are the same versions Investor delivered to Company as being the “final” versions of the Transaction Documents
and Company represents and warrants that it has not made any changes to such “final” versions of the Transaction Documents
and that the versions Company signed are the same versions Investor delivered to it. In the event Company has made any changes
to any Transaction Document that are not conspicuously disclosed to Investor in a “redline” or similar draft of the
applicable Transaction Document and that have not been explicitly accepted and agreed upon by Investor, Company acknowledges and
agrees that any such changes shall not be considered part of the final document set. Finally, and in furtherance of the foregoing,
Company agrees and authorizes Investor to compile the “final” versions of the Transaction Documents, which shall consist
of Company’s executed signature pages for all Transaction Documents being applied to the last set of the Transaction Documents
that Investor delivered to Company, and Company agrees that such versions of the Transaction Documents that have been collated
by Investor shall be deemed to be the final versions of the Transaction Documents for all purposes.


 


10.24. Voluntary
Agreement. Company has carefully read this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents and has asked any questions
needed for Company to understand the terms, consequences and binding effect of this Agreement and each of the other Transaction
Documents and fully understand them. Company has had the opportunity to seek the advice of an attorney of Company’s choosing,
or has waived the right to do so, and is executing this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents voluntarily and without
any duress or undue influence by Investor or anyone else.

EXHIBIT F


 


ARBITRATION PROVISIONS


 


1. Dispute Resolution. For
purposes of this Exhibit F, the term “Claims” means any disputes, claims, demands, causes of action, requests
for injunctive relief, requests for specific performance, liabilities, damages, losses, or controversies whatsoever arising from,
related to, or connected with the transactions contemplated in the Transaction Documents and any communications between the parties
related thereto, including without limitation any claims of mutual mistake, mistake, fraud, misrepresentation, failure of formation,
failure of consideration, promissory estoppel, unconscionability, failure of condition precedent, rescission, and any statutory
claims, tort claims, contract claims, or claims to void, invalidate or terminate the Agreement (or these Arbitration Provisions
(defined below)) or any of the other Transaction Documents. The term “Claims” specifically excludes a dispute over
Calculations. The parties to the Agreement (the “parties”) hereby agree that the arbitration provisions set
forth in this Exhibit F (“Arbitration Provisions”) are binding on each of them. As a result, any attempt to
rescind the Agreement (or these Arbitration Provisions) or declare the Agreement (or these Arbitration Provisions) or any other
Transaction Document invalid or unenforceable for any reason is subject to these Arbitration Provisions. These Arbitration Provisions
shall also survive any termination or expiration of the Agreement. Any capitalized term not defined in these Arbitration Provisions
shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement.


 


2. Arbitration. Except as
otherwise provided herein, all Claims must be submitted to arbitration (“Arbitration”) to be conducted
exclusively in Salt Lake County, Utah and pursuant to the terms set forth in these Arbitration Provisions. Subject to the
arbitration appeal right provided for in Paragraph 5 below (the “Appeal Right”), the parties agree that
the award of the arbitrator rendered pursuant to Paragraph 4 below (the “Arbitration Award”) shall be (a)
final and binding upon the parties, (b) the sole and exclusive remedy between them regarding any Claims, counterclaims,
issues, or accountings presented or pleaded to the arbitrator, and (c) promptly payable in United States dollars free of any
tax, deduction or offset (with respect to monetary awards). Subject to the Appeal Right, any costs or fees, including without
limitation attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with or incident to enforcing the Arbitration Award shall, to the
maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the party resisting such enforcement. The Arbitration Award shall include
default interest (as defined or otherwise provided for in the Note, “Default Interest”) (with respect to
monetary awards) at the rate specified in the Note for Default Interest both before and after the Arbitration Award. Judgment
upon the Arbitration Award will be entered and enforced by any state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah.


 


3. The Arbitration Act. The
parties hereby incorporate herein the provisions and procedures set forth in the Utah Uniform Arbitration Act, U.C.A. §
78B-11-101 et seq. (as amended or superseded from time to time, the “Arbitration Act”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to, and to the maximum extent permitted by, Section 105 of the Arbitration Act, in
the event of conflict or variation between the terms of these Arbitration Provisions and the provisions of the Arbitration
Act, the terms of these Arbitration Provisions shall control and the parties hereby waive or otherwise agree to vary the
effect of all requirements of the Arbitration Act that may conflict with or vary from these Arbitration Provisions.


 


4. Arbitration
Proceedings. Arbitration between the parties will be subject to the following:


 


4.1 Initiation of
Arbitration. Pursuant to Section 110 of the Arbitration Act, the parties agree that a party may initiate Arbitration by giving
written notice to the other party (“Arbitration Notice”) in the same manner that notice is permitted under
Section 10.13 of the Agreement; provided, however, that the Arbitration Notice may not be given by email or fax. Arbitration
will be deemed initiated as of the date that the Arbitration Notice is deemed delivered to such other party under Section 10.13
of the Agreement (the “Service Date”). After the Service Date, information may be delivered, and notices may
be given, by email or fax pursuant to Section 10.13 of the Agreement or any other method permitted thereunder. The Arbitration
Notice must describe the nature of the controversy, the remedies sought, and the election to commence Arbitration proceedings.
All Claims in the Arbitration Notice must be pleaded consistent with the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure.


 



    
	Arbitration Provisions, Page 1



    	 



    




 


4.2 Selection and Payment of Arbitrator.


 


(a) Within ten (10)
calendar days after the Service Date, Investor shall select and submit to Company the names of three (3) arbitrators that are
designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators by Utah ADR Services (http://www.utahadrservices.com) (such
three (3) designated persons hereunder are referred to herein as the “Proposed Arbitrators”). For the
avoidance of doubt, each Proposed Arbitrator must be qualified as a “neutral” with Utah ADR Services. Within
five (5) calendar days after Investor has submitted to Company the names of the Proposed Arbitrators, Company must select, by
written notice to Investor, one (1) of the Proposed Arbitrators to act as the arbitrator for the parties under these
Arbitration Provisions. If Company fails to select one of the Proposed Arbitrators in writing within such 5-day period, then
Investor may select the arbitrator from the Proposed Arbitrators by providing written notice of such selection to
Company.


 


(b) If Investor fails
to submit to Company the Proposed Arbitrators within ten (10) calendar days after the Service Date pursuant to subparagraph
(a) above, then Company may at any time prior to Investor so designating the Proposed Arbitrators, identify the names of
three (3) arbitrators that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators by Utah ADR Service by written
notice to Investor. Investor may then, within five (5) calendar days after Company has submitted notice of its Proposed
Arbitrators to Investor, select, by written notice to Company, one (1) of the Proposed Arbitrators to act as the arbitrator
for the parties under these Arbitration Provisions. If Investor fails to select in writing and within such 5-day period one
(1) of the three (3) Proposed Arbitrators selected by Company, then Company may select the arbitrator from its three (3)
previously selected Proposed Arbitrators by providing written notice of such selection to Investor.


 


(c) If a Proposed
Arbitrator chosen to serve as arbitrator declines or is otherwise unable to serve as arbitrator, then the party that selected such
Proposed Arbitrator may select one (1) of the other three (3) Proposed Arbitrators within three (3) calendar days of the date the
chosen Proposed Arbitrator declines or notifies the parties he or she is unable to serve as arbitrator. If all three (3) Proposed
Arbitrators decline or are otherwise unable to serve as arbitrator, then the arbitrator selection process shall begin again in
accordance with this Paragraph 4.2.


 


(d) The date that the Proposed
Arbitrator selected pursuant to this Paragraph 4.2 agrees in writing (including via email) delivered to both parties to serve
as the arbitrator hereunder is referred to herein as the “Arbitration Commencement Date”. If an arbitrator
resigns or is unable to act during the Arbitration, a replacement arbitrator shall be chosen in accordance with this Paragraph
4.2 to continue the Arbitration. If Utah ADR Services ceases to exist or to provide a list of neutrals and there is no successor
thereto, then the arbitrator shall be selected under the then prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association.


 


(e) Subject to
Paragraph 4.10 below, the cost of the arbitrator must be paid equally by both parties. Subject to Paragraph 4.10 below, if one
party refuses or fails to pay its portion of the arbitrator fee, then the other party can advance such unpaid amount (subject to
the accrual of Default Interest thereupon), with such amount being added to or subtracted from, as applicable, the Arbitration
Award.


 


4.3 Applicability
of Certain Utah Rules. The parties agree that the Arbitration shall be conducted generally in accordance with the Utah Rules
of Civil Procedure and the Utah Rules of Evidence. More specifically, the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure shall apply, without limitation,
to the filing of any pleadings, motions or memoranda, the conducting of discovery, and the taking of any depositions. The Utah
Rules of Evidence shall apply to any hearings, whether telephonic or in person, held by the arbitrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
it is the parties’ intent that the incorporation of such rules will in no event supersede these Arbitration Provisions. In
the event of any conflict between the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure or the Utah Rules of Evidence and these Arbitration Provisions,
these Arbitration Provisions shall control.


 


4.4 Answer and Default.
An answer and any counterclaims to the Arbitration Notice shall be required to be delivered to the party initiating the Arbitration
within twenty (20) calendar days after the Arbitration Commencement Date. If an answer is not delivered by the required deadline,
the arbitrator must provide written notice to the defaulting party stating that the arbitrator will enter a default award against
such party if such party does not file an answer within five (5) calendar days of receipt of such notice. If an answer is not
filed within the five (5) day extension period, the arbitrator must render a default award, consistent with the relief requested
in the Arbitration Notice, against a party that fails to submit an answer within such time period.


 






    
	Arbitration Provisions, Page 2



    	 



    




 


4.5 Related
Litigation. The party that delivers the Arbitration Notice to the other party shall have the option to also commence concurrent
legal proceedings with any state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah (“Litigation Proceedings”),
subject to the following: (a) the complaint in the Litigation Proceedings is to be substantially similar to the claims set forth
in the Arbitration Notice, provided that an additional cause of action to compel arbitration will also be included therein, (b)
so long as the other party files an answer to the complaint in the Litigation Proceedings and an answer to the Arbitration Notice,
the Litigation Proceedings will be stayed pending an Arbitration Award (or Appeal Panel Award (defined below), as applicable) hereunder,
(c) if the other party fails to file an answer in the Litigation Proceedings or an answer in the Arbitration proceedings, then
the party initiating Arbitration shall be entitled to a default judgment consistent with the relief requested, to be entered in
the Litigation Proceedings, and (d) any legal or procedural issue arising under the Arbitration Act that requires a decision of
a court of competent jurisdiction may be determined in the Litigation Proceedings. Any award of the arbitrator (or of the Appeal
Panel (defined below)) may be entered in such Litigation Proceedings pursuant to the Arbitration Act.


 


4.6 Discovery.
Pursuant to Section 118(8) of the Arbitration Act, the parties agree that discovery shall be conducted as follows:


 


(a) Written discovery
will only be allowed if the likely benefits of the proposed written discovery outweigh the burden or expense thereof, and the written
discovery sought is likely to reveal information that will satisfy a specific element of a claim or defense already pleaded in
the Arbitration. The party seeking written discovery shall always have the burden of showing that all of the standards and limitations
set forth in these Arbitration Provisions are satisfied. The scope of discovery in the Arbitration proceedings shall also be limited
as follows:


 


(i) To facts
directly connected with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement.


 


(ii) To facts
and information that cannot be obtained from another source or in another manner that is more convenient, less burdensome or less
expensive than in the manner requested.


 


(b) No party shall be
allowed (i) more than fifteen (15) interrogatories (including discrete subparts), (ii) more than fifteen (15) requests for
admission (including discrete subparts), (iii) more than ten (10) document requests (including discrete subparts), or (iv)
more than three (3) depositions (excluding expert depositions) for a maximum of seven (7) hours per deposition. The costs
associated with depositions will be borne by the party taking the deposition. The party defending the deposition will submit
a notice to the party taking the deposition of the estimated attorneys’ fees that such party expects to incur in
connection with defending the deposition. If the party defending the deposition fails to submit an estimate of
attorneys’ fees within five (5) calendar days of its receipt of a deposition notice, then such party shall be deemed to
have waived its right to the estimated attorneys’ fees. The party taking the deposition must pay the party defending
the deposition the estimated attorneys’ fees prior to taking the deposition, unless such obligation is deemed to be
waived as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. If the party taking the deposition believes that the estimated
attorneys’ fees are unreasonable, such party may submit the issue to the arbitrator for a decision. All depositions
will be taken in Utah.


 


(c) All discovery
requests (including document production requests included in deposition notices) must be submitted in writing to the
arbitrator and the other party. The party submitting the written discovery requests must include with such discovery requests
a detailed explanation of how the proposed discovery requests satisfy the requirements of these Arbitration Provisions and
the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure. The receiving party will then be allowed, within five (5) calendar days of receiving the
proposed discovery requests, to submit to the arbitrator an estimate of the attorneys’ fees and costs associated with
responding to such written discovery requests and a written challenge to each applicable discovery request. After receipt of
an estimate of attorneys’ fees and costs and/or challenge(s) to one or more discovery requests, consistent with
subparagraph (c) above, the arbitrator will within three (3) calendar days make a finding as to the likely attorneys’
fees and costs associated with responding to the discovery requests and issue an order that (i) requires the requesting party
to prepay the attorneys’ fees and costs associated with responding to the discovery requests, and (ii) requires the
responding party to respond to the discovery requests as limited by the arbitrator within twenty-five (25) calendar days of
the arbitrator’s finding with respect to such discovery requests. If a party entitled to submit an estimate of
attorneys’ fees and costs and/or a challenge to discovery requests fails to do so within such 5-day period, the
arbitrator will make a finding that (A) there are no attorneys’ fees or costs associated with responding to such
discovery requests, and (B) the responding party must respond to such discovery requests (as may be limited by the
arbitrator) within twenty-five (25) calendar days of the arbitrator’s finding with respect to such discovery
requests. Any party submitting any written discovery requests, including without limitation interrogatories, requests for
production subpoenas to a party or a third party, or requests for admissions, must prepay the estimated attorneys’ fees
and costs, before the responding party has any obligation to produce or respond to the same, unless such obligation is deemed
waived as set forth above.


 






    
	Arbitration Provisions, Page 3



    	 



    




 


(d) In order to
allow a written discovery request, the arbitrator must find that the discovery request satisfies the standards set forth in these
Arbitration Provisions and the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure. The arbitrator must strictly enforce these standards. If a discovery
request does not satisfy any of the standards set forth in these Arbitration Provisions or the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure, the
arbitrator may modify such discovery request to satisfy the applicable standards, or strike such discovery request in whole or
in part.


 


(e) Each party
may submit expert reports (and rebuttals thereto), provided that such reports must be submitted within sixty (60) days of the Arbitration
Commencement Date. Each party will be allowed a maximum of two (2) experts. Expert reports must contain the following: (i) a complete
statement of all opinions the expert will offer at trial and the basis and reasons for them; (ii) the expert’s name and qualifications,
including a list of all the expert’s publications within the preceding ten (10) years, and a list of any other cases in which
the expert has testified at trial or in a deposition or prepared a report within the preceding ten (10) years; and (iii) the compensation
to be paid for the expert’s report and testimony. The parties are entitled to depose any other party’s expert witness
one (1) time for no more than four (4) hours.


 


An expert may not testify in a party’s
case-in-chief concerning any matter not fairly disclosed in the expert report.


 


4.6 Dispositive
Motions. Each party shall have the right to submit dispositive motions pursuant Rule 12 or Rule 56 of the Utah Rules of Civil
Procedure (a “Dispositive Motion”). The party submitting the Dispositive Motion may, but is not required to,
deliver to the arbitrator and to the other party a memorandum in support (the “Memorandum in Support”) of the
Dispositive Motion. Within seven (7) calendar days of delivery of the Memorandum in Support, the other party shall deliver to the
arbitrator and to the other party a memorandum in opposition to the Memorandum in Support (the “Memorandum in Opposition”).
Within seven (7) calendar days of delivery of the Memorandum in Opposition, as applicable, the party that submitted the Memorandum
in Support shall deliver to the arbitrator and to the other party a reply memorandum to the Memorandum in Opposition (“Reply
Memorandum”). If the applicable party shall fail to deliver the Memorandum in Opposition as required above, or if the
other party fails to deliver the Reply Memorandum as required above, then the applicable party shall lose its right to so deliver
the same, and the Dispositive Motion shall proceed regardless.


 


4.7 Confidentiality.
All information disclosed by either party (or such party’s agents) during the Arbitration process (including without limitation
information disclosed during the discovery process or any Appeal (defined below)) shall be considered confidential in nature. Each
party agrees not to disclose any confidential information received from the other party (or its agents) during the Arbitration
process (including without limitation during the discovery process or any Appeal) unless (a) prior to or after the time of disclosure
such information becomes public knowledge or part of the public domain, not as a result of any inaction or action of the receiving
party or its agents, (b) such information is required by a court order, subpoena or similar legal duress to be disclosed if such
receiving party has notified the other party thereof in writing and given it a reasonable opportunity to obtain a protective order
from a court of competent jurisdiction prior to disclosure, or (c) such information is disclosed to the receiving party’s
agents, representatives and legal counsel on a need to know basis who each agree in writing not to disclose such information to
any third party. Pursuant to Section 118(5) of the Arbitration Act, the arbitrator is hereby authorized and directed to issue a
protective order to prevent the disclosure of privileged information and confidential information upon the written request of either
party.


 


4.8 Authorization;
Timing; Scheduling Order. Subject to all other portions of these Arbitration Provisions, the parties hereby authorize
and direct the arbitrator to take such actions and make such rulings as may be necessary to carry out the parties’
intent for the Arbitration proceedings to be efficient and expeditious. Pursuant to Section 120 of the Arbitration Act, the
parties hereby agree that an Arbitration Award must be made within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the
Arbitration Commencement Date. The arbitrator is hereby authorized and directed to hold a scheduling conference within ten
(10) calendar days after the Arbitration Commencement Date in order to establish a scheduling order with various binding
deadlines for discovery, expert testimony, and the submission of documents by the parties to enable the arbitrator to render
a decision prior to the end of such 120-day period.


 






    
	Arbitration Provisions, Page 4



    	 



    




 


4.9 Relief.
The arbitrator shall have the right to award or include in the Arbitration Award (or in a preliminary ruling) any relief which
the arbitrator deems proper under the circumstances, including, without limitation, specific performance and injunctive relief,
provided that the arbitrator may not award exemplary or punitive damages.


 


4.10 Fees
and Costs. As part of the Arbitration Award, the arbitrator is hereby directed to require the losing party (the party being
awarded the least amount of money by the arbitrator, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be determined without regard to any
statutory fines, penalties, fees, or other charges awarded to any party) to (a) pay the full amount of any unpaid costs and fees
of the Arbitration, and (b) reimburse the prevailing party for all reasonable attorneys’ fees, arbitrator costs and fees,
deposition costs, other discovery costs, and other expenses, costs or fees paid or otherwise incurred by the prevailing party in
connection with the Arbitration.


 


5. Arbitration
Appeal.


 


5.1 Initiation
of Appeal. Following the entry of the Arbitration Award, either party (the “Appellant”) shall have a period
of thirty (30) calendar days in which to notify the other party (the “Appellee”), in writing, that the Appellant
elects to appeal (the “Appeal “) the Arbitration Award (such notice, an “Appeal Notice”)
to a panel of arbitrators as provided in Paragraph 5.2 below. The date the Appellant delivers an Appeal Notice to the Appellee
is referred to herein as the “Appeal Date”. The Appeal Notice must be delivered to the Appellee in accordance
with the provisions of Paragraph 4.1 above with respect to delivery of an Arbitration Notice. In addition, together with delivery
of the Appeal Notice to the Appellee, the Appellant must also pay for (and provide proof of such payment to the Appellee together
with delivery of the Appeal Notice) a bond in the amount of 110% of the sum the Appellant owes to the Appellee as a result of the
Arbitration Award the Appellant is appealing. In the event an Appellant delivers an Appeal Notice to the Appellee (together with
proof of payment of the applicable bond) in compliance with the provisions of this Paragraph 5.1, the Appeal will occur as a matter
of right and, except as specifically set forth herein, will not be further conditioned. In the event a party does not deliver an
Appeal Notice (along with proof of payment of the applicable bond) to the other party within the deadline prescribed in this Paragraph
5.1, such party shall lose its right to appeal the Arbitration Award. If no party delivers an Appeal Notice (along with proof of
payment of the applicable bond) to the other party within the deadline described in this Paragraph 5.1, the Arbitration Award shall
be final. The parties acknowledge and agree that any Appeal shall be deemed part of the parties’ agreement to arbitrate for
purposes of these Arbitration Provisions and the Arbitration Act.


 


5.2 Selection
and Payment of Appeal Panel. In the event an Appellant delivers an Appeal Notice to the Appellee (together with proof of payment
of the applicable bond) in compliance with the provisions of Paragraph 5.1 above, the Appeal will be heard by a three (3) person
arbitration panel (the “Appeal Panel”).


 


(a) Within ten (10)
calendar days after the Appeal Date, the Appellee shall select and submit to the Appellant the names of five (5) arbitrators
that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators by Utah ADR Services (http://www.utahadrservices.com)
(such five (5) designated persons hereunder are referred to herein as the “Proposed Appeal Arbitrators”).
For the avoidance of doubt, each Proposed Appeal Arbitrator must be qualified as a “neutral” with Utah ADR
Services, and shall not be the arbitrator who rendered the Arbitration Award being appealed (the “Original
Arbitrator”). Within five (5) calendar days after the Appellee has submitted to the Appellant the names of the
Proposed Appeal Arbitrators, the Appellant must select, by written notice to the Appellee, three (3) of the Proposed Appeal
Arbitrators to act as the members of the Appeal Panel. If the Appellant fails to select three (3) of the Proposed Appeal
Arbitrators in writing within such 5-day period, then the Appellee may select such three (3) arbitrators from the Proposed
Appeal Arbitrators by providing written notice of such selection to the Appellant.


 


(b) If the Appellee
fails to submit to the Appellant the names of the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators within ten (10) calendar days after the Appeal
Date pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, then the Appellant may at any time prior to the Appellee so designating the Proposed
Appeal Arbitrators, identify the names of five (5) arbitrators that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified
arbitrators by Utah ADR Service (none of whom may be the Original Arbitrator) by written notice to the Appellee. The Appellee
may then, within five (5) calendar days after the Appellant has submitted notice of its selected arbitrators to the Appellee,
select, by written notice to the Appellant, three (3) of such selected arbitrators to serve on the Appeal Panel. If the
Appellee fails to select in writing within such 5-day period three (3) of the arbitrators selected by the Appellant to serve
as the members of the Appeal Panel, then the Appellant may select the three (3) members of the Appeal Panel from the
Appellant’s list of five (5) arbitrators by providing written notice of such selection to the Appellee.

(c) If a selected
Proposed Appeal Arbitrator declines or is otherwise unable to serve, then the party that selected such Proposed Appeal Arbitrator
may select one (1) of the other five (5) designated Proposed Appeal Arbitrators within three (3) calendar days of the date a chosen
Proposed Appeal Arbitrator declines or notifies the parties he or she is unable to serve as an arbitrator. If at least three (3)
of the five (5) designated Proposed Appeal Arbitrators decline or are otherwise unable to serve, then the Proposed Appeal Arbitrator
selection process shall begin again in accordance with this Paragraph 5.2; provided, however, that any Proposed Appeal Arbitrators
who have already agreed to serve shall remain on the Appeal Panel.


 


(d) The date that
all three (3) Proposed Appeal Arbitrators selected pursuant to this Paragraph 5.2 agree in writing (including via email) delivered
to both the Appellant and the Appellee to serve as members of the Appeal Panel hereunder is referred to herein as the “Appeal
Commencement Date”. No later than five (5) calendar days after the Appeal Commencement Date, the Appellee shall designate
in writing (including via email) to the Appellant and the Appeal Panel the name of one (1) of the three (3) members of the Appeal
Panel to serve as the lead arbitrator in the Appeal proceedings. Each member of the Appeal Panel shall be deemed an arbitrator
for purposes of these Arbitration Provisions and the Arbitration Act, provided that, in conducting the Appeal, the Appeal Panel
may only act or make determinations upon the approval or vote of no less than the majority vote of its members, as announced or
communicated by the lead arbitrator on the Appeal Panel. If an arbitrator on the Appeal Panel ceases or is unable to act during
the Appeal proceedings, a replacement arbitrator shall be chosen in accordance with Paragraph 5.2 above to continue the Appeal
as a member of the Appeal Panel. If Utah ADR Services ceases to exist or to provide a list of neutrals, then the arbitrators for
the Appeal Panel shall be selected under the then prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association.


 


(d) Subject to
Paragraph 5.7 below, the cost of the Appeal Panel must be paid entirely by the Appellant. 5.3 Appeal Procedure. The
Appeal will be deemed an appeal of the entire Arbitration Award. In conducting the Appeal, the Appeal Panel shall conduct a
de novo review of all Claims described or otherwise set forth in the Arbitration Notice. Subject to the foregoing and all
other provisions of this Paragraph 5, the Appeal Panel shall conduct the Appeal in a manner the Appeal Panel considers
appropriate for a fair and expeditious disposition of the Appeal, may hold one or more hearings and permit oral argument, and
may review all previous evidence and discovery, together with all briefs, pleadings and other documents filed with the
Original Arbitrator (as well as any documents filed with the Appeal Panel pursuant to Paragraph 5.4(a) below).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the Appeal, the Appeal Panel shall not permit the parties to conduct any
additional discovery or raise any new Claims to be arbitrated, shall not permit new witnesses or affidavits, and shall not
base any of its findings or determinations on the Original Arbitrator’s findings or the Arbitration Award.


 


5.4 Timing.


 


(a) Within seven
(7) calendar days of the Appeal Commencement Date, the Appellant (i) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Appeal
Panel copies of the Appeal Notice, all discovery conducted in connection with the Arbitration, and all briefs, pleadings and
other documents filed with the Original Arbitrator (which material Appellee shall have the right to review and supplement if
necessary), and (ii) may, but is not required to, deliver to the Appeal Panel and to the Appellee a Memorandum in Support of
the Appellant’s arguments concerning or position with respect to all Claims, counterclaims, issues, or accountings
presented or pleaded in the Arbitration. Within seven (7) calendar days of the Appellant’s delivery of the Memorandum
in Support, as applicable, the Appellee shall deliver to the Appeal Panel and to the Appellant a Memorandum in Opposition to
the Memorandum in Support. Within seven (7) calendar days of the Appellee’s delivery of the Memorandum in Opposition,
as applicable, the Appellant shall deliver to the Appeal Panel and to the Appellee a Reply Memorandum to the Memorandum in
Opposition. If the Appellant shall fail to substantially comply with the requirements of clause (i) of this subparagraph (a),
the Appellant shall lose its right to appeal the Arbitration Award, and the Arbitration Award shall be final. If the Appellee
shall fail to deliver the Memorandum in Opposition as required above, or if the Appellant shall fail to deliver the Reply
Memorandum as required above, then the Appellee or the Appellant, as the case may be, shall lose its right to so deliver the
same, and the Appeal shall proceed regardless.

(b) Subject to
subparagraph (a) above, the parties hereby agree that the Appeal must be heard by the Appeal Panel within thirty (30) calendar
days of the Appeal Commencement Date, and that the Appeal Panel must render its decision within thirty (30) calendar days after
the Appeal is heard (and in no event later than sixty (60) calendar days after the Appeal Commencement Date).


 


5.5 Appeal
Panel Award. The Appeal Panel shall issue its decision (the “Appeal Panel Award”) through the lead arbitrator
on the Appeal Panel. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, the Appeal Panel Award shall (a) supersede in its entirety
and make of no further force or effect the Arbitration Award (provided that any protective orders issued by the Original Arbitrator
shall remain in full force and effect), (b) be final and binding upon the parties, with no further rights of appeal, (c) be the
sole and exclusive remedy between the parties regarding any Claims, counterclaims, issues, or accountings presented or pleaded
in the Arbitration, and (d) be promptly payable in United States dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset (with respect to
monetary awards). Any costs or fees, including without limitation attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with or incident
to enforcing the Appeal Panel Award shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the party resisting such
enforcement. The Appeal Panel Award shall include Default Interest (with respect to monetary awards) at the rate specified in the
Note for Default Interest both before and after the Arbitration Award. Judgment upon the Appeal Panel Award will be entered and
enforced by a state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah.


 


5.6 Relief.
The Appeal Panel shall have the right to award or include in the Appeal Panel Award any relief which the Appeal Panel deems proper
under the circumstances, including, without limitation, specific performance and injunctive relief, provided that the Appeal Panel
may not award exemplary or punitive damages.


 


5.7 Fees and
Costs. As part of the Appeal Panel Award, the Appeal Panel is hereby directed to require the losing party (the party being
awarded the least amount of money by the arbitrator, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be determined without regard to any
statutory fines, penalties, fees, or other charges awarded to any party) to (a) pay the full amount of any unpaid costs and fees
of the Arbitration and the Appeal Panel, and (b) reimburse the prevailing party (the party being awarded the most amount of money
by the Appeal Panel, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be determined without regard to any statutory fines, penalties, fees,
or other charges awarded to any part) the reasonable attorneys’ fees, arbitrator and Appeal Panel costs and fees, deposition
costs, other discovery costs, and other expenses, costs or fees paid or otherwise incurred by the prevailing party in connection
with the Arbitration (including without limitation in connection with the Appeal).


 


6. Miscellaneous.


 


6.1 Severability.
If any part of these Arbitration Provisions is found to violate or be illegal under applicable law, then such provision shall be
modified to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision enforceable under applicable law, and the remainder of the Arbitration
Provisions shall remain unaffected and in full force and effect.rest


 


6.2 Governing
Law. These Arbitration Provisions shall be governed by the laws of the State of Utah without regard to the conflict of laws
principles therein.


 


6.3 Interpretation.
