applicable state securities laws (collectively, the “Required Approvals”).


 


(f)          Issuance
of the Securities.  The Securities are duly authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the applicable
Transaction Documents, will be duly and validly issued and free and clear of all Liens imposed by Company other than restrictions
on transfer provided for in the Transaction Documents.  The Underlying Shares, when issued in accordance with the terms
of the Transaction Documents, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens imposed
by Company other than restrictions on transfer provided for in the Transaction Documents.   Company has reserved from
its duly authorized capital stock a number of shares of Common Stock for issuance of the Underlying Shares at least equal to the
Required Minimum on the date hereof.

capitalization of Company is as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule. The Disclosure Schedule also includes the number of shares
of Common Stock owned beneficially, and of record, by Affiliates of Company as of the date hereof and any and all options, warrants
or other rights to purchase shares of Common Stock, together with a summary description of the material terms of such options,
warrants and other rights. Company has not issued any capital stock since its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange
Act, other than pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options under Company’s stock option plans, the issuance of shares
of Common Stock to employees pursuant to Company’s employee stock purchase plans and pursuant to the conversion and/or exercise
of Common Stock Equivalents outstanding as of the date of the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act. Except

or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire any shares of Common Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings
or arrangements by which Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents. The issuance and sale of the Securities will not obligate Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other
securities to any Person (other than Purchasers) and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust
the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under any of such securities. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock
of Company or any predecessor of Company are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in
compliance with all federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding shares was issued in violation of any preemptive
rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities.  No further approval or authorization of any stockholder,

agreements, voting agreements or other similar agreements with respect to Company’s capital stock to which Company is a
party or, to the knowledge of Company, between or among any of Company’s stockholders.

exist with respect to Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, properties, operations, assets or financial
condition, that would be required to be disclosed by Company under applicable securities laws at the time this representation

which (i) could adversely affect or challenge the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or
the Securities or (ii) could, if there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.  Neither Company nor any Subsidiary, nor any director or officer thereof, is or has been the subject of any
Action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary
duty. There has not been, and to the knowledge of Company, there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the Commission

employees is a member of a union that relates to such employee’s relationship with Company or such Subsidiary, and neither
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to a collective bargaining agreement, and Company and its Subsidiaries believe
that their relationships with their employees are good.  To the knowledge of Company, no executive officer of Company
or any Subsidiary, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment or consulting contract, confidentiality,
disclosure or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive
covenant in favor of any third party, and the continued employment or engagement of each such executive officer does not subject
Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters.   Company and its
Subsidiaries are in compliance with all Australian laws and regulations and all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and
regulations relating to employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where
the failure to be in compliance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.


 


(l)          Compliance.  Neither

with notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a default by Company or any Subsidiary under), nor has Company or any Subsidiary
received notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit agreement
or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or not such
default or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any judgment, decree or order of any court, arbitrator or other
governmental authority or (iii) is or has been in violation of any statute, rule, ordinance or regulation of any governmental

Permits.  Company and its Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate
federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in the SEC
Reports, including, without limitation, the Petroleum Exploration License, except where the failure to possess such permits could
not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”), and neither Company
nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit.


 


(n)          Title
to Assets.  Except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule, Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title
in fee simple to all real property owned by them and good and marketable title in all personal property owned by them that is
material to the business of Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all Liens, except for (i) Liens in favor
of Liberty pursuant to the Liberty Loan Documents and (ii) Liens for the payment of federal, state or other taxes, for which appropriate
reserves have been made therefor in accordance with GAAP and, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties.  Any

leases with which Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance.

Property.  Company and the Subsidiaries have, or have rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks,
trademark applications, service marks, trade names, trade secrets, knowhow, inventions, copyrights, licenses, governmental authorizations
and other intellectual property rights and similar rights (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”)
as described in the SEC Reports as necessary or required for use in connection with their respective businesses.  None
of, and neither Company nor any Subsidiary has received a notice (written or otherwise) that any of, Company’s Intellectual
Property Rights has expired, terminated or been abandoned, or is expected to expire or terminate or be abandoned, within five
(5) years from the date of this Agreement, except for such expiration, termination or abandonment that could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither Company nor any Subsidiary has received, since the date of
the latest audited financial statements included within the SEC Reports, a written notice of a claim or otherwise has any knowledge
that Company’s Intellectual Property Rights violate or infringe upon the Intellectual Property Rights of any Person.  To
the knowledge of Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable. There is no claim, action or proceeding being
made or brought, or to the knowledge of Company, being threatened, against Company or its Subsidiaries regarding its Intellectual
Property Rights.  Company is unaware of any facts or circumstances which might give rise to any of the foregoing infringements
or claims, actions or proceedings.  Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy,
confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties. There are no third parties who have or, to Company’s
knowledge, will be able to establish, rights to any of Company’s Intellectual Property Rights, except for the ownership

of Company’s Intellectual Property Rights.


 


(p)          Insurance.  
Company and its Subsidiaries maintain with insurers of recognized financial responsibility the directors and officers insurance
coverage set forth on the Disclosure Schedule. Neither Company nor any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be
able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers
as may be necessary to continue its business without a significant increase in cost.


 


(q)          Transactions
With Affiliates and Employees.  Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule and the SEC Reports, none of the

payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of Company, any entity in which any officer, director,
or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee, stockholder, member or partner, in each case
in excess of $10,000 other than for: (i) payment of salary or consulting fees for services rendered, (ii) reimbursement for expenses

(r)          Sarbanes-Oxley;
Internal Accounting Controls.  Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with any and all applicable requirements
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated
by the Commission thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date.  Company and its Subsidiaries
maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) transactions are executed
in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted
only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets

Company and its Subsidiaries have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d-15(e)) for Company and its Subsidiaries and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required
to be disclosed by Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported,
within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.  Company’s certifying officers have
evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures of Company and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the period
covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”).  Company
presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date.  Since
the Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in the
Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial
reporting of Company and its Subsidiaries.

Fees.  No brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions are or will be payable by Company or any Subsidiaries
to any broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other Person with respect
to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to
any fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section that
may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.


 


(t)          Private
Placement.  Assuming the accuracy of Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2,
no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Securities by Company to Purchasers as contemplated
hereby. The issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder does not contravene the rules and regulations of any Trading Market
on which the Company’s securities may be listed or quoted.

Company. Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Securities, will not
be or be an Affiliate of, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become an “investment company” subject to registration
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.


 


(v)         Registration
Rights.  Other than each of the Purchasers or as otherwise set forth on the Disclosure Schedule, no Person has any
right to cause Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of Company or any Subsidiaries.


 


(w)          Listing
and Maintenance Requirements.  The Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange
Act, and Company has taken no action designed to terminate or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of terminating
the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating
terminating such registration. Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market
on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that Company is not in compliance with the listing or
maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable
future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements.

(x)          Application
of Takeover Protections.  Company and the Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render
inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement)
or other similar anti-takeover provision under Company’s certificate of incorporation (or similar charter documents) or
the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to Purchasers as a result of Purchasers and Company
fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation as a result
of Company’s issuance of the Securities and Purchasers’ ownership of the Securities.


 


(y)          Disclosure.  Except
with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, Company confirms
that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information
that it believes constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information.  Company understands and confirms
that Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representation in effecting transactions in securities of Company.  All of
the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of Company to Purchasers regarding Company and its Subsidiaries, their respective businesses
and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement, is true and correct and does not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.   The press releases disseminated
by Company during the twelve months preceding the date of this Agreement taken as a whole do not contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made and when made, not misleading.  Company acknowledges and
agrees that Purchasers do not make and have not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 3.2 hereof.


 


(z)          No
Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, neither
Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers
or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this offering of the
Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by Company for purposes of (i) the Securities Act which would require the registration
of any such securities under the Securities Act, or (ii) any applicable shareholder approval provisions of any Trading Market
on which any of the securities of Company are listed or designated.

(aa)         Solvency
and Indebtedness.  Based on the consolidated financial condition of Company as of the Closing Date, after giving
effect to the receipt by Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder: (i) the fair saleable value of Company’s
assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of Company’s existing debts and other liabilities
(including known contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital
to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the
particular capital requirements of the business conducted by Company, consolidated and projected capital requirements and capital
availability thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of Company, together with the proceeds Company would receive, were it to
liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts
on or in respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid.  Company does not intend to incur debts
beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in
respect of its debt).  Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will
file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the
Closing.  Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule 3.1, neither Company nor any Subsidiary (i) has any outstanding
Indebtedness (as defined below), (ii) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument, the violation of which, or default
under which, by the other party(ies) to such contract, agreement or instrument would result in a Material Adverse Effect, (iii)
is in violation of any term of or in default under any contract, agreement or instrument, except where such violations and defaults
would not result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) is a party to any contract, agreement
or instrument relating to any Indebtedness, the performance of which, in the judgment of Company's officers, has or is expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Disclosure Schedule sets forth as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and unsecured
Indebtedness of Company or any Subsidiary, or for which Company or any Subsidiary has commitments and provides a detailed description
of the material terms of any such outstanding Indebtedness.  For purposes of this Agreement:  (y) “Indebtedness”
of any Person means, without duplication (A) all indebtedness for borrowed money (other than trade payables incurred in the ordinary
course of business), (B) all obligations issued, undertaken or assumed as the deferred purchase price of property or services
(other than trade payables entered into in the ordinary course of business), (C) all reimbursement or payment obligations with
respect to letters of credit, surety bonds and other similar instruments, (D) all obligations evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures
or similar instruments, including obligations so evidenced incurred in connection with the acquisition of property, assets or
businesses, (E) all indebtedness created or arising under any conditional sale or other title retention agreement, or incurred
as financing, in either case with respect to any property or assets acquired with the proceeds of such indebtedness (even though
the rights and remedies of the seller or bank under such agreement in the event of default are limited to repossession or sale
of such property), (F) all monetary obligations under any leasing or similar arrangement classified as a capital lease under GAAP,
(G) all indebtedness referred to in clauses (A) through (F) above secured by (or for which the holder of such Indebtedness has
an existing right, contingent or otherwise, to be secured by) any mortgage, lien, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance
upon or in any property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned by any Person, even though the Person which owns
such assets or property has not assumed or become liable for the payment of such indebtedness, and (H) all Contingent Obligations
in respect of indebtedness or obligations of others of the kinds referred to in clauses (A) through (G) above; and (z) “Contingent
Obligation” means, as to any Person, any direct or indirect liability, contingent or otherwise, of that Person with
respect to any indebtedness, lease, dividend or other obligation of another Person if the primary purpose or intent of the Person
incurring such liability, or the primary effect thereof, is to provide assurance to the obligee of such liability that such liability
will be paid or discharged, or that any agreements relating thereto will be complied with, or that the holders of such liability
will be protected (in whole or in part) against loss with respect thereto.


 


(bb)         Tax
Status.  Except for matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect, Company and its Subsidiaries each (i) has made or filed all United States federal, state
and local income and all foreign income and franchise tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which
it is subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined
to be due on such returns, reports and declarations and (iii) has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the
payment of all material taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply.  There
are no material unpaid taxes claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of Company or any
Subsidiary know of no basis for any such claim.


 


(cc)         No
General Solicitation. Neither Company nor any person acting on behalf of Company has offered or sold any of the Securities
by any form of general solicitation or general advertising. Company has offered the Securities for sale only to Purchasers and
certain other “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act.


 


(dd)         
Anti-Corruption Laws. Company and its Subsidiaries have conducted their business in compliance with the United States Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the UK Bribery Act 2010 and other similar anti-corruption legislation in other jurisdictions, and
have instituted and maintained policies and procedures designed to promote and achieve compliance with such laws.

(ff)         Seniority.  As
of the Closing, no Indebtedness or other claim (other than Indebtedness payable pursuant to the Liberty Loan Documents and trade
payables entered into in the ordinary course of business) against Company is senior to the Debentures in right of payment, whether
with respect to interest or upon liquidation or dissolution, or otherwise, other than indebtedness secured by purchase money security
interests (which is senior only as to underlying assets covered thereby) and capital lease obligations (which is senior only as
to the property covered thereby).


 


(gg)         No

and Warranties of Purchasers.  Each Purchaser, for itself and for no other Purchaser, hereby represents and warrants
as of the date hereof and as of each Closing Date to Company as follows (unless as of a specific date therein):


 


(a)          Organization;
Authority.  Such Purchaser is either an individual or an entity duly incorporated or formed, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with full right, corporate, partnership,
limited liability company or similar power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents to which it is a party and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution
and delivery of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and performance by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership, limited
liability company or similar action, as applicable, on the part of such Purchaser.  Each Transaction Document to which
it is a party has been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof,
will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms,
except: (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other
laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the
availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution

Account.  Such Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” and have not been
registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Securities as principal for its
own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof in violation of the Securities
Act or any applicable state securities law, has no present intention of distributing any of such Securities in violation of the
Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other

is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.


 


(c)          Purchaser
Status.  At the time such Purchaser was offered the Securities, it was, and as of the date hereof it is, and on
each date on which it exercises any Warrants or converts any Debentures it will be either: (i) an “accredited investor”
as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act or (ii) a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A(a)
under the Securities Act.

of Purchaser.   Such Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication
and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment

economic risk of an investment in the Securities and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.


 


(e)          Information. 
Such Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations
of Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities that have been requested by such Purchaser.  Such
Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of Company. Neither such inquiries nor
any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Purchaser or its advisors, if any, or its representatives shall modify,
amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on Company’s representations and warranties contained in Section 3.1
above or contained in any of the other Transaction Documents.   Such Purchaser understands that its investment in the
Securities involves a high degree of risk.  Such Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered
necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Securities.


 


(f)          General
Solicitation.  Such Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other
communication regarding the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio
or presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.

on Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations and warranties contained
in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this Agreement

ARTICLE IV.


OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES


 


4.1           Transfer
Restrictions.


 


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


 


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


 




    	 	- 20 -	 



     


    

 


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


 


Company acknowledges
and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer
or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor”
as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities
to the pledgees or secured parties.  Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of Company and no legal
opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith.  Further,
no notice shall be required of such pledge.  At the applicable Purchaser’s expense, Company will execute and deliver
such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or
transfer of the Securities, including, if the Securities are subject to registration pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement,
the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act or other applicable
provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of Selling Stockholders (as defined in the Registration Rights
Agreement) thereunder.


 


(c)          Certificates
evidencing the Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof): (i) while
a registration statement (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities
Act, (ii) following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144, provided that the purchaser is not an Affiliate of
Company, (iii) following the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date if such Underlying Shares are eligible for sale under Rule
144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions and as of such date Company is in compliance with the current public information
required under Rule 144 as to such Underlying Shares, or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of
the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) (each such event
being a “Legend Removal Qualification Event”). Upon request, Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal
opinion to the Transfer Agent, if required by the Transfer Agent, promptly after a Legend Removal Qualification Event and the
delivery to Company or Company’s counsel of any reasonable certifications requested by Company or Company’s counsel
in connection with the issuance of such opinion to effect the removal of the legend hereunder with respect to any qualifying Underlying
Shares. Following an applicable Legend Removal Qualification Event, Company will no later than three (3) Trading Days following
the delivery by a Purchaser to Company or the Transfer Agent (with notice to Company) of (i) a legended certificate representing
Underlying Shares (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the
reissuance and/or transfer) or (ii) a Notice of Exercise or Notice of Conversion in the manner stated in the Warrants or Debentures
to effect the exercise of a Warrant or conversion of a Debenture in accordance with its terms, and, in each case, any reasonable
certifications from Purchaser requested by Company or Company’s counsel in order to effectuate a legend removal (such third
Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to a Purchaser a certificate representing
such Underlying Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends.  In addition, promptly upon request of a
Purchaser, Company shall cause its counsel to promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Trading Days after such request and
the delivery to Company or Company’s counsel of any reasonable certifications requested by Company or Company’s counsel,
issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent at any time after the six month anniversary of the Closing Date if required by the
Transfer Agent to transfer any of the Underlying Shares, which legal opinion shall provide that Purchaser may transfer any of
the Underlying Shares free of restriction during the 10 Trading Days following the date of such legal opinion and that the transferee
thereof shall receive the Underlying Shares free from all restrictive and other legends, provided that the transferee is not an
Affiliate of Company.  Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge
the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.  Upon the request of a Purchaser, certificates for Underlying
Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to such Purchaser by crediting the account
of Purchaser’s brokerage firm with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by such Purchaser.

(d)          In
addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, Company shall pay to each Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Underlying Shares (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date such Securities
are submitted to the Transfer Agent) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend and subject to Section 4.1(c), $5 per Trading
Day (increasing to $10 per Trading Day five (5) Trading Days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each Trading Day commencing
on the third Trading Day following the Legend Removal Date, until such certificate is delivered without a legend. Nothing herein
shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for such Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing
any Securities as required by the Transaction Documents, and Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to
it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.


 


(e)          Each
Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees with Company that such Purchaser will sell any Securities
pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements,
or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to the Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance
with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates
representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon Company’s reliance upon this understanding.


 


(f)          Each
Purchaser hereby acknowledges that Company was previously a “shell” company, as that term is defined in Rule 405 of
the Securities Act and Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. As a result of this former status and the application of subsection
(i)(2) of Rule 144, periods of time may arise in which Purchaser may not rely upon the resale exemption provided for by Rule 144.
Purchaser hereby agrees that, between the time that Company has notified Purchaser in writing that such resales may not be undertaken
pursuant to Rule 144 and the time that Company has notified Purchaser in writing that such resales may resume, Purchaser shall
not resell any Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144. Purchaser shall be entitled to resell any Underlying Shares pursuant to
any effective and current Registration Statement or pursuant to any available resale exemption other than Rule 144. Company agrees
to notify promptly Purchaser whenever the resale exemption provided for by Rule 144 become unavailable and whenever such exemption
becomes available again; provided, however, that no such notice need be given solely because Company has filed an extension for
any of its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Annual Reports on Form 10-K.

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


 


4.3           Furnishing
of Information; Public Information.


 


(a)          During

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


 


(b)          At
any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof and ending on the date a Purchaser
ceases to hold any Securities, if Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under
Rule 144(c) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies,
Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in
or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities, an amount in cash equal to one percent (1.0%) of the aggregate Principal Amount
of such Purchaser’s Securities on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30th) day (pro rated for
periods totaling less than 30 days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and
(b) such time that such public information is no longer required  for the Purchasers to transfer the Underlying Shares pursuant
to Rule 144.  The payments to which a Purchaser shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4.3(b) are referred to herein
as “Public Information Failure Payments.”  Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid
on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are
incurred and (ii) the fifth (5th) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments
is cured.  In the event Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public
Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until
paid in full. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure,
and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation,
a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.


 


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


 


4.5           Conversion
and Exercise Procedures.  Each of the form of Notice of Exercise included in the Warrants and the form of Notice
of Conversion included in the Debentures set forth the totality of the procedures required of Purchasers in order
to exercise the Warrants or convert the Debentures.  No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions
shall be required of Purchasers to exercise their Warrants or convert their Debentures.  Company shall honor exercises
of the Warrants and conversions of the Debentures and shall deliver Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions
and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.

any Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including
any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement whether now in effect or hereafter adopted

each Person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange

any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by Company in this Agreement or in the other
Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against the Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their respective
Affiliates, by any stockholder of Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party, with respect to any of the transactions

warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser Party may have with
any such stockholder or any violations by such  Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by
such Purchaser Party which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance).  If any action shall
be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser
Party shall promptly notify Company in writing, and Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of
its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party.  Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate

withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any
Purchaser Party’s breach of any representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any violations
by such Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which constitutes fraud, gross
negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance. The indemnification required by this Section 4.10 shall, if requested by such Purchaser
Party, be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills
are received or are incurred; provided, however, that a Purchaser Party benefitting from such periodic payments shall repay the
amount of all such periodic payments if it shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable
decision that such Purchaser Party was not entitled to such indemnification under this Section 4.10 or otherwise.  The
indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against
Company or others and any liabilities Company may be subject to pursuant to law.

into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion
price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations
for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion,
exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity
security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of Company or
the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters into any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby
Company may sell securities at a future determined price. Any Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against
Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.


 


4.14         Form
D; Blue Sky Filings.   Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation
D as promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act. Company shall take such action as Company shall reasonably determine
is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to Purchasers at the Closing under applicable
securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly
upon request of the Purchasers holding 60% of Principal Amount outstanding on the Debentures.


 




    	 	- 26 -	 



     


    

 


4.15         Capital
Changes.  Until the one year anniversary of the Closing Date, other than for purposes of qualifying for initial
listing on a national securities exchange or meeting the continued listing requirements of such exchange, Company shall not undertake
a reverse or forward stock split or reclassification of the Common Stock without the prior written consent of Purchaser.


 


4.16         Corporate
Existence.  So long as a Purchaser owns any Debentures or Warrants, Company shall not be party to any Fundamental
Transaction (as defined in the Debentures) unless Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental
Transactions set forth in the Debentures and the Warrants.


 


4.17         Board
Representation.  Company shall promptly take any and all actions (including by increasing the size of the Board
of Directors) as may be required under the laws of its state of incorporation, its certificate of incorporation and bylaws and
any all other applicable laws set forth by any governmental authority in order to (i) cause, within five (5) Trading Days of the
Closing Date (or such later date as elected by Original Purchaser), (x) the election of one director designated by Original Purchaser
(and, not more than five (5) Trading Days after the date on which Original Purchaser funds an aggregate amount of $20,000,000
of additional Indebtedness or equity pursuant to its Right of First Offer as set forth in Section 2.1(c), the election
of an additional two directors designated by Original Purchaser), which designees shall be independent under Section 5605(a)(2)
of the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market (the “Independence Rules”), to serve as members of the Board of Directors
from the date hereof until such director designees’ resignation, death, removal or disqualification (the “Purchaser
Designees”) and (ii) until such time as Original Purchaser ceases to hold any Securities, include the Purchaser Designees
as nominees for election or re-election as members of the Board of Directors, as the case may be, in the proxy statement to be
sent to any holders of Company’s capital stock in connection with any annual or special meeting of such holders entitled
to vote on such matters if the re-election of the members of the Board of Directors shall be proposed by the Board of Directors
in such proxy statement and, in such instance, the  Board of Directors shall recommend to any such holders of its capital
stock entitled to vote at such meeting in such proxy statement the election or re-election, as applicable, of the Purchaser Designees.


 


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


 


ARTICLE V.


MISCELLANEOUS


 


5.1           Termination. 
This Agreement may be terminated by Original Purchaser or by Company by written notice to the other party if the Closing has not
been consummated on or before June 30, 2016; provided, however, that neither party may terminate this Agreement
if the Closing has not been consummated as the result of its failure to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements
or conditions hereof to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing; and provided further, however,
that no termination by a party will affect the right of such party to sue for any breach by any other party (or parties).


 




    	 	- 27 -	 



     


    

 


5.2           Fees
and Expenses.  Company shall pay the out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses of Original Purchaser and Agent in connection
with the acquisition of the Securities (including the reasonable fees and expenses of Original Purchaser and Agent’s advisers,
counsel, accountants and other experts, if any), and all other reasonable expenses incurred by Original Purchaser and Agent incident
to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, performance and administration of this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents and the completion of due diligence (including, without limitation, fees and expenses associated with the filing of
any ownership or other reports necessary under applicable securities laws or associated with any amendment to, waiver of or enforcement
of the Transaction Documents).  Company shall pay all stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with
the delivery of any Securities to Original Purchaser.


 


5.3           Entire
Agreement.  The Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding
of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral
or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules.


 


5.4           Notices.  Any
and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall
be deemed given and effective on the earliest of: (a) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via
facsimile at the facsimile number set forth on the signature pages attached hereto or via email at the email address set forth
on the signature pages attached hereto (if an email address is so provided) at or prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a
Trading Day, (b) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile

is provided for a party on the signature pages attached hereto, notice to such party given by other means hereunder shall also
be given by email, provided, that failure to deliver a duplicate notice by email shall not constitute a failure to deliver the
applicable notice. The address for such notices and communications shall be as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto
or as such address may be modified by a party by written notice in accordance herewith.


 


5.5           Amendments;
Waivers.  No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended except in a written instrument
signed, in the case of an amendment, by Company and Purchasers holding at least 60% in interest (based on then-outstanding principal
amounts of Debentures at the time of such determination) or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of
such waived provision is sought.  No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of
this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any
other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder
in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.


 


5.6           Headings.  The
headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect
any of the provisions hereof.


 


5.7           Successors
and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors
and permitted assigns.  Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of each Purchaser.  Each Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to
whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect
to the transferred Securities, by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to a “Purchaser.”


 




    	 	- 28 -	 



     


    

 


5.8           No
Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person,
except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.10.


 


5.9           Governing
Law.  Except as otherwise provided therein, all questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and
interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws
of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.  Each party agrees that all
legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders,
partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of
New York, County of New York (the “New York Courts”).  Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder
or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement
of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding,
any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper
or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and
consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified
mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement
and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained
herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.  If either
party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to
the obligations of Company under Section 4.10, the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by
the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation
and prosecution of such action or proceeding.


 


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


 


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


 


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


 




    	 	- 29 -	 



     


    

 


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


 


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


 


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


 


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


 


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


 




    	 	- 30 -	 



     


    

 


5.18         Independent
Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights.  In the event that there may be more than one Purchaser hereunder
(by assignment or otherwise) following any Subsequent Closing Date or at any other time and for any other reason, the parties
agree that any obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of
any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations
of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document,
and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership,
an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that Purchasers are in any way acting in
concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  Each
Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising
out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined
as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.  


 


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


 


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


 


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


 


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


 




    	 	- 31 -	 



     


    

 


5.23         Original
Purchaser. By acceptance of any Debenture, each Purchaser appoints Original Purchaser as its agent as more particularly set
forth and subject to the limitations set forth in the Security Agreement.
