(a)          Advance

by delivering an Advance Notice to the Investor, subject to the conditions set forth in Article VII; provided, however, that: (i) the
amount for each Advance as designated by the Company in the applicable Advance Notice shall not be more than the Maximum Advance
Amount; (ii) the aggregate amount of the Advances pursuant to this Agreement shall not exceed the Commitment Amount; (iii) in
no event shall the number of Shares issuable to the Investor pursuant to an Advance cause the aggregate number of Shares beneficially
owned (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) by the Investor and its Affiliates to exceed 9.99%
of the then outstanding Common Stock (the “Ownership Limitation”); and (iv) in
no event shall the aggregate offering price or number of Shares, as the case may be, exceed the aggregate offering price or number
of Shares, as the case may be, available for issuance under the Registration Statement (the “Registration Limitation”).
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Company acknowledges and agrees that upon receipt of an Advance Notice,
the Investor may sell Shares that it is unconditionally obligated to purchase under such Advance Notice prior to taking possession
of such Shares.


 


(b)          Date
of Delivery of Advance Notice.  Advance Notices shall be delivered in accordance with the instructions set forth on the
bottom of Exhibit “A”.  An Advance Notice shall be deemed delivered on: (i) the Trading
Day it is received by the Investor, if such Advance Notice is received prior to 5:00 pm, Eastern Time; or (ii) the immediately
succeeding Trading Day if such Advance Notice is received by Investor after 5:00 pm, Eastern Time, on a Trading Day or at any time
on a day which is not a Trading Day.  No Advance Notice may be deemed delivered on a day that is not a Trading Day. The Company
may not deliver an Advance Notice to Investor unless at least five (5) Trading Days have elapsed since the immediately preceding
Advance Notice Date.


 


(c)          Ownership
Limitation.  In connection with each Advance Notice delivered by the Company, any portion of an Advance that would cause
the Investor to exceed the Ownership Limitation shall automatically be deemed to be withdrawn by the Company with no further action
required by the Company.


 


(d)          Registration
Limitation.  In connection with each Advance Notice, any portion of an Advance that would cause the Investor to exceed
the Registration Limitation shall automatically be deemed to be withdrawn by the Company with no further action required by the
Company. 


 


2.2          Closings. 
Each Closing shall take place on the Advance Settlement Date in accordance with the procedures set forth below.  In connection
with each Closing, the Company and the Investor shall fulfill each of its obligations as set forth below:


 


(a)          Within
one (1) Trading Day after the expiration of the Pricing Period applicable with respect to an Advance Notice, the Investor shall
deliver to the Company a written document (each a “Settlement Document”) setting forth: (i) the amount
of the Advance (taking into account any adjustments pursuant to Section 2.1 above); (ii) the Purchase Price; (iii) the Market
Price (as supported by a report by Bloomberg L.P. indicating the VWAP for each of the Trading Days during
the Pricing Period); and (iv) the number of Shares to be issued and subscribed for in connection with the applicable Advance
(which in no event will be greater than the Ownership Limitation or the Registration Limitation), in each case taking into account
the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  The Settlement Document shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B”.


 



    	5



    	 



    

 


(b)          Upon
receipt of the Settlement Document with respect to each Advance, the Company shall, by promptly (and in any event not later than
one (1) Trading Day after receipt) signing the Settlement Document and returning it to the Investor, confirm that it has obtained
all permits and qualifications, if any, required for the issuance and transfer of the Shares applicable to such Advance, or shall
have the availability of exemptions therefrom, and that the sale and issuance of such Shares shall be legally permitted by all
laws and regulations to which the Company is subject. Execution of the Settlement Document by the Company shall also be deemed
a representation by the Company that all conditions to an Advance under Article VII have been fully satisfied in all material respects
as of each Condition Satisfaction Date.


 


(c)          On
each Advance Settlement Date, the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer such number of Shares
registered in the name of the Investor as shall equal: (i) the amount of the Advance specified in such Advance Notice and
confirmed in the Settlement Document signed by the Company (as may be reduced according to the terms of this Agreement); divided
by (ii) the Purchase Price, by crediting the Investor’s account or its designee’s account at the Depository Trust
Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon
by the parties hereto (which in all cases shall be freely tradable, registered shares in good deliverable form, covered by an effective
Registration Statement pursuant to which the Investor is permitted to resell such Shares) against payment of the Purchase Price
in same day funds to an account designated by the Company.  In the event the Shares cannot be delivered through the Deposit
Withdrawal Agent Commission System, then the Company shall cause its transfer agent, on each Advance Settlement Date, to issue
and surrender to a common carrier for overnight delivery to the Investor, certificates, registered in the name of the Investor
or its designees, representing the Shares applicable to such Advance. No fractional shares shall be issued, and any fractional
amounts shall be rounded to the next higher whole number of Shares. Any certificates evidencing Shares
delivered pursuant hereto shall be free of restrictive legends.


 


(d)          On
or prior to the Advance Settlement Date, each of the Company and the Investor shall deliver to the other, as applicable, all documents,
instruments and writings required to be delivered by either of them pursuant to this Agreement in order to implement and effect
the transactions contemplated herein.


 


2.3          Hardship. 
In the event the Investor sells shares of the Company’s Common Stock after receipt of an Advance Notice and the Company fails
to perform its obligations as mandated in Section 2.2, the Company agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights
and obligations set forth in Article V hereto, and in addition to any other remedy to which the Investor is entitled at law
or in equity, including, without limitation, specific performance, the Investor shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions
to prevent such breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce, without the posting of a bond or other security, the terms
and provisions of this Agreement.

by the Company, nor the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the exhibits or attachments
hereto, will conflict with or result in the breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default or
result in the creation or imposition of any lien or charge on any assets or properties of the Company, under its Certificate of
Incorporation, By-Laws, any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other material agreement applicable to the Company or
instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound, or any statute, or any decree, judgment, order, rules or
regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or its properties, in each case which

Property Rights.  The Company and its subsidiaries own or possess adequate rights or licenses to use all material trademarks,
trade names, service marks, service mark registrations, service names, patents, patent rights, copyrights, inventions, licenses,

Company and its subsidiaries do not have any knowledge of any infringement by the Company or its subsidiaries of trademark, trade
name rights, patents, patent rights, copyrights, inventions, licenses, service names, service marks, service mark registrations,
trade secret or other similar rights of others, and, to the knowledge of the Company, there is no claim, action or proceeding being

trade secret or other infringement; and the Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances which might give rise to any of

sought or applied for and the Company does not have any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance

adequate for the payment of all unpaid and unreported taxes) 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, except those being contested
in good faith, and the Company and its subsidiaries have set aside on their respective books provision reasonably adequate for
the payment of all 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.

Transactions.  Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, none of the officers, directors, or employees of the Company
is presently a party to any transaction with the Company (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including
any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or
personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge
of the Company, any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a
substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.

The Investor and the

5.1          Indemnification
by the Company. In consideration of the Investor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, and in addition to all of
the Company’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Company shall, and does hereby agree to, defend, protect, indemnify
and hold harmless the Investor, and all of the Investor’s affiliates and subsidiaries, and each Person who controls the Investor
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the officers, directors,
partners, members, employees and agents of each of them (collectively, the “Investor Indemnitees”), from
and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, demands, threats and proceedings (collectively, the “Claims”),
and the Company agrees to reimburse the Investor Indemnitees, or any of them, for any and all losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities,
obligations, judgments, expenses, and damages, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, paralegals’
fees and other costs, expenses and disbursements reasonably incurred by the Investor Indemnities, or any of them, in connection
with investigating, defending or settling any such Claims, including such expenses incurred throughout all trial and appellate
levels and administrative and bankruptcy proceedings (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), suffered
or incurred by the Investor Indemnitees, or any of them, as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to: (a) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Shares
as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any related prospectus, or in supplement, or in any amendment thereof or
supplement thereto, or arising out of or which are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that
the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Indemnified Liabilities arise out of or are based upon
any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor specifically for inclusion therein; (b) any misrepresentation
or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document
contemplated hereby or thereby; (c) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement
or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby; and (d) any Claim brought or made against

of or resulting from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any other instrument, document or
agreement executed pursuant hereto or thereto by any of the Investor Indemnitees.  To the extent that the foregoing undertaking
by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction
of each of the Indemnified Liabilities, which is permissible under applicable law.


 



    	13



    	 



    

 


5.2          Indemnification
by Investor. In consideration of the Company’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, and in addition to all of the
Investor’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Investor shall, and does hereby agree to, defend, protect, indemnify
and hold harmless the Company, and all of the Company’s subsidiaries, and each Person who controls the Company within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the officers, directors, partners,
members, employees and agents of each of them (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”), from and against
any and all Claims, and the Investor agrees to reimburse the Company Indemnitees, or any of them, for any and all Indemnified Liabilities,
suffered or incurred by the Company Indemnitees, or any of them, as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to: (a) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of

extent that any such Indemnified Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission made therein by the Company; (b) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty

which is permissible under applicable law.


 



    	14



    	 



    

 


5.3          Notice
of Claim. For purposes of this Article V, a party that is subject to a Claim and entitled to indemnification hereunder is sometimes
hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnitee,” and the party having the obligation to indemnify the other
is sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnitor.” Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee of
notice of the commencement of any Claim involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if an Indemnified Liability
in respect thereof is to be made against any Indemnitor, deliver to the Indemnitor a written notice of the commencement thereof;
provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnitor: (i) will not relieve the Indemnitor of liability under this Article V,
unless and to the extent the Indemnitor did not otherwise learn of such Claim and such failure results in the forfeiture by the
Indemnitor of substantial rights and defenses; and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the Indemnitor from any obligations to
the Indemnitee, other than those indemnity obligations provided in this Article V.  In the case of parties indemnified
pursuant to Section 5.1 above, counsel to the Indemnitee shall be selected by the Company, and, in the case of parties indemnified
pursuant to Section 5.2 above, counsel to the Indemnitee shall be selected by the Investor. An Indemnitor may participate,
at its own expense, in the defense of any such Claim; provided, however, that counsel to the Indemnitor shall not
(except with the consent of the Indemnitee) also be counsel to the Indemnitee. In no event shall the Indemnitor be liable for fees
and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all Indemnitees in
connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general
allegations or circumstances. The Indemnitee shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor in connection with any negotiation or defense
of any Claim, and the Indemnitee shall furnish to the Indemnitor all information reasonably available to the Indemnitee which relates
to such Claim. The Indemnitor shall keep the Indemnitee fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement
negotiations with respect thereto. An Indemnitor will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, settle or compromise
or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened Claim in respect of which indemnification or
contribution may be sought under this Agreement (whether or not the Indemnitees are actual or potential parties to such Claim)
unless: (i) such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnitee from all liability
arising out of such Claim; and (ii) such settlement, compromise or consent does not include a statement as to or an admission
of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitee.  Following indemnification as provided for hereunder,
the Indemnitor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating
to the matter for which indemnification has been made.


 


5.4          Contribution.
In the event that the indemnity provided in Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless
an Indemnitee for any reason, the Company and the Investor, as applicable, severally agree to contribute to the aggregate Indemnified
Liabilities to which the Company and the Investor may be subject, as applicable, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Investor on the other from transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company and
the Investor severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also
the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Investor on the other in connection with the statements or omissions
which resulted in such Indemnified Liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the
Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total proceeds from the offering (net of underwriting discounts and commissions but
before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Investor shall be deemed to be equal to the total discounts
received by the Investor. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided
by the Company on the one hand or the Investor on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Investor agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. The aggregate amount of Indemnified Liabilities incurred
by an Indemnitee and referred to above in this Article V shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by such Indemnitee in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding
by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.4, the Investor shall not be required
to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the Purchase Price for Shares actually purchased pursuant to this Agreement
exceeds the amount of any damages which the Investor has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f)
of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
For purposes of this Article V, each Person who controls the Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of the Investor shall have the same rights
to contribution as the Investor, and each Person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each
director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms
and conditions of this Section 5.4.


 



    	15



    	 



    

 


5.5          Remedies.
The remedies provided for in this Article V are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise
be available to any Indemnitee.


 


5.6          Survival.
The obligations of the parties to indemnify or make contribution under this Article V shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the related prospectus, it will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to

DUE DILIGENCE REVIEW; NON-DISCLOSURE
OF NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION


 


8.1          Due
Diligence Review. Prior to the filing of the Registration Statement, the Company shall make available for inspection and review
by the Investor, advisors to and representatives of the Investor and any underwriter participating in any disposition of the Registrable
Securities on behalf of the Investor pursuant to the Registration Statement, any such Registration Statement or amendment or supplement
thereto, or any blue sky, NASD, FINRA, or other filing, all financial and other records, all SEC Documents and other filings with
the SEC, and all other corporate documents and properties of the Company as may be reasonably necessary or required by the Investor
and any such advisors, representatives and underwriters, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply
all such information requested by the Investor or any such representative, advisor or underwriter in connection with such Registration
Statement (including, without limitation, in response to all questions and other inquiries reasonably made or submitted by any
of them), prior to and from time to time after the filing and effectiveness of the Registration Statement, for the sole purpose
of enabling the Investor and such representatives, advisors and underwriters and their respective accountants and attorneys to
conduct initial and ongoing due diligence with respect to the Company and the accuracy of the Registration Statement.

8.2          Company
Non-Public Information.


 


(a)          Nothing
herein shall require the Company to disclose non-public information to the Investor or its advisors or representatives, unless
prior to disclosure of such information, the Company identifies such information as being non-public information and provides the
Investor, such advisors and representatives with the opportunity to accept or refuse to accept such non-public information for
review. The Company may, as a condition to disclosing any non-public information hereunder, require the Investor and its advisors
and representatives to enter into a confidentiality agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Investor.


 


(b)          The
Company represents that it does not disseminate non-public information in violation of the Exchange Act or Securities Act to any
investors who purchase stock in the Company in a public offering, to money managers or to securities analysts, provided, however,
that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company will immediately notify the advisors and representatives of the
Investor and, if any, underwriters, of any event or the existence of any circumstance (without any obligation to disclose the specific
event or circumstance) of which it becomes aware, constituting non-public information (whether or not requested of the Company
specifically or generally during the course of due diligence by such persons or entities), which, if not disclosed in the prospectus
included in the Registration Statement would cause such prospectus to include a material misstatement or to omit a material fact
required to be stated therein in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not
misleading. Nothing contained in this Article VIII shall be construed to mean that such persons or entities other than the
Investor (without the written consent of the Investor prior to disclosure of such information) may not obtain non-public information
in the course of conducting due diligence in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and nothing herein shall prevent any such
persons or entities from notifying the Company of their opinion that based on such due diligence by such persons or entities, that
the Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of material fact or omits a material fact required to be stated in the
Registration Statement or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were
made, not misleading.

Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to the principles
of conflict of laws.  The parties further agree that any action between them shall be heard in a federal or state court in
Clark County, Nevada, and expressly consent to the jurisdiction and venue of the state courts sitting in Clark County, Nevada and
the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, for the adjudication of any civil action asserted pursuant to this
paragraph; provided, however, nothing contained herein shall limit the Investor’s ability to bring suit or enforce this Agreement

if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page was an original thereof.


 



    	23



    	 



    

 


12.2          Entire
Agreement; Amendments.  This Agreement, together with the Registration Rights Agreement, supersedes all other prior oral
or written agreements between the Investor, the Company, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf with respect to the
matters discussed herein, and this Agreement, and the instruments referenced herein, including the Registration Rights Agreement,
contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically
set forth herein or therein, the Investor makes no representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. 
No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party to be charged
with enforcement.


 


12.3          Reporting
Entity for the Common Stock.  The reporting entity relied upon for the determination of the trading price or trading volume
of the Common Stock on any given Trading Day for the purposes of this Agreement shall be Bloomberg, L.P. or any successor thereto. 
The written mutual consent of the Investor and the Company shall be required to employ any other reporting entity.


 


12.4          Fees.


 


(a)          Legal
and Administrative Fee.  Each of the parties shall pay its own fees and expenses (including the fees of any attorneys,
accountants, appraisers or others engaged by such party) in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby,
except that the Company shall pay to Investor, upon the execution of this Agreement by the Company, a fee of $12,500 to cover the
Investor’s legal and administrative costs and expenses in connection this Agreement, $5,000 of which the Investor hereby
acknowledges was paid by the Company prior to the date hereof.


 


(b)          Due
Diligence Fees. The Company shall pay to Investor, upon execution of this Agreement by the Company, a fee of $12,500 to cover
the Investor’s due diligence costs and expenses in connection this Agreement.


 


(c)          Advance
Fee. On each Advance Settlement Date, the Company shall pay to the Investor the Advance Fee with respect to each Advance made
hereunder, which Advance Fee shall be deducted by Investor out of the gross proceeds of each Advance.


 


(d)          Facility
Fee. 


 


(i)          Share
Issuance. The Company shall pay to Investor a fee for investment banking services provided by the Investor to the Company prior
to the Effective Date by issuing to Investor that number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock that equal to a dollar amount
equal to $110,000.00 (the “Share Value”). For purposes of determining the number of shares issuable to
Investor under this Section 12.4(d) (the “Facility Fee Shares”), the Company’s Common Stock shall
be valued at the VWAP as of the close of the business day immediately prior to the date the Company executes this Agreement (the
“Valuation Date”). The Investor shall confirm to the Company in writing, the VWAP for the Common Stock
as of the Valuation Date, and the corresponding number of Shares issuable to the Investor based on such price. The Company shall
instruct its transfer agent to issue certificates representing the Facility Fee Shares issuable to the Investor immediately upon
the Company’s execution of this Agreement, and shall cause its transfer agent to deliver such certificates to Investor within
three (3) Trading Days from the date the Company executes this Agreement. In the event such certificates representing the Facility
Fee Shares issuable hereunder shall not be delivered to the Investor within said three (3) Trading Day period, same shall be an
immediate default under this Agreement and Investor shall have no obligation to make any Advances hereunder until such default
is cured. The Facility Fee Shares, when issued, shall be deemed to be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable shares of
the Company’s Common Stock. The Facility Fee Shares shall be deemed fully earned as of the date the Company executes this
Agreement, regardless of the amount of Advances, if any, that the Company is able to, or chooses to, request hereunder.  The
Facility Fee Shares shall be deemed Registrable Securities hereunder and shall be included on any registration statement filed
by the Company after the date hereof, unless such shares may be resold without any limitation of any kind pursuant to Rule 144.


 



    	24



    	 



    

 


(ii)          Adjustments.
It is the intention of the Company and Investor that by a date that is nine (9) months after the Valuation Date (the “Nine
Month Valuation Date”) the Investor shall have generated net proceeds from the sale of the Facility Fee Shares equal
to the Share Value. The Investor shall have the right to sell the Facility Fee Shares in the Principal Trading Market or otherwise,
at any time in accordance with applicable securities laws. At any time the Investor may elect after the Nine Month Valuation Date,
the Investor may deliver to the Company a reconciliation statement showing the net proceeds actually received by the Investor from
the sale of the Facility Fee Shares (the “Sale Reconciliation”). If, as of the date of the delivery by
Investor of the Sale Reconciliation, the Investor has not realized net proceeds from the sale of such Facility Fee Shares equal
to at least the Share Value, as shown on the Sale Reconciliation, then the Company shall immediately take all required action necessary
or required in order to cause the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock to the Investor in an amount sufficient such that,
when sold and the net proceeds thereof are added to the net proceeds from the sale of any of the previously issued and sold Facility
Fee Shares, the Investor shall have received total net funds equal to the Share Value. If additional shares of Common Stock are
issued pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, and after the sale of such additional issued shares of Common Stock, the
Investor still has not received net proceeds equal to at least the Share Value, then the Company shall again be required to immediately
take all required action necessary or required in order to cause the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock to the Investor
as contemplated above, and such additional issuances shall continue until the Investor has received net proceeds from the sale
of such Common Stock equal to the Share Value. In the event the Investor receives net proceeds from the sale of Facility Fee Shares
equal to the Share Value, and the Investor still has Facility Fee Shares remaining to be sold, the Investor shall return all such
remaining Facility Fee Shares to the Company. In the event additional Common Stock is required to be issued as outlined above,
the Company shall instruct its transfer agent to issue certificates representing such additional shares of Common Stock to the
Investor immediately subsequent to the Investor’s notification to the Company that additional shares of Common Stock are
issuable hereunder, and the Company shall in any event cause its transfer agent to deliver such certificates to Investor within
three (3) business days following the date Investor notifies the Company that additional shares of Common Stock are to be issued
hereunder. In the event such certificates representing such additional shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder shall not be delivered
to the Buyer within said three (3) business day period, same shall be an immediate default under this Agreement and the Transaction
Documents and Investor shall have no obligation to make any Advances hereunder until such default is cured. Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Section 7.5 to the contrary, at any time on or prior to the Nine Month Valuation Date, but not thereafter (unless
agreed to by the Investor), the Company shall have the right, at any time during such period, to redeem any Facility Fee Shares
then in the Investor’s possession for an amount payable by the Company to Investor in cash equal to the Share Value, less
any net cash proceeds received by the Investor from any previous sales of Facility Fee Shares. Upon Investor’s receipt of
such cash payment in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Investor shall return any then remaining Facility
Fee Shares in its possession back to the Company.

12.5          Brokerage. 
Each of the parties hereto represents that it has had no dealings in connection with this transaction with any finder or broker
who will demand payment of any fee or commission from the other party.  The Company on the one hand, and the Investor, on
the other hand, agree to indemnify the other against and hold the other harmless from any and all liabilities to any person claiming
brokerage commissions or finder’s fees on account of services purported to have been rendered on behalf of the indemnifying
party in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.


 


12.6          Confidentiality. 
If for any reason the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated, each of the parties hereto shall keep confidential
any information obtained from any other party (except information publicly available or in such party’s domain prior to the
date hereof, and except as required by court order) and shall promptly return to the other parties all schedules, documents, instruments,
work papers or other written information without retaining copies thereof, previously furnished by it as a result of this Agreement
or in connection herein.
