B.    Section
2.2 of the Securities Purchase Agreement shall be amended and restated to read as follows:


 


“Adjustments to Purchase Price.


 


(a)
Working Capital Adjustment.


 


(i)  
At the Closing, the Sellers shall deliver to the Buyer an unaudited, combined estimated balance sheet of the Company (the “Preliminary
Balance Sheet”) as of the Closing Date together with a certificate of the Sellers stating that the Preliminary Balance Sheet
was prepared in accordance with GAAP so as to present fairly in all material respects the financial condition of Company on a combined
basis as of such date.


 


(ii)       
Ninety days (90) after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall cause its auditor to prepare and deliver to the Sellers an unaudited,
combined balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”) and all calculations,
work papers and supporting documents (the “Supporting Documentation”) as of the Closing Date. The Closing Date Balance
Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with the Preliminary Balance Sheet so as to present fairly in all
material respects the financial condition of the Company.


 


(iii)      
If the Closing Working Capital exceeds the Minimum Working Capital, then the Buyer shall promptly (and, in any event, within fifteen
(15) days) pay to the Sellers an amount in cash that is equal to the deficiency. If the Minimum Working Capital exceeds the Closing Working
Capital, then the Sellers shall promptly (and, in any event, within fifteen (15) days) pay to the Buyer an amount in cash that is equal
to the deficiency.


 


(iv)    In
the event the Sellers do not agree with the Closing Working Capital as reflected on the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Sellers shall
so inform the Buyer in writing within 20 days of the Sellers’ receipt thereof, such writing to set forth the objections of the Sellers
in reasonable detail. If the Sellers and the Buyer cannot reach agreement as to any disputed matter relating to the Closing Working Capital
within 15 days after notification by the Sellers to the Buyer of a dispute, they shall forthwith refer the dispute to an Independent Accounting
Firm mutually agreeable to the Sellers and the Buyer for resolution, with the understanding that such firm shall resolve all disputed
items within 20 days after such disputed items are referred to it. If the Buyer and the Sellers are unable to agree on the choice of an
Independent Accounting Firm, they shall select an Independent Accounting Firm by lot from up to three firms proposed by each of the Sellers
and Buyer (after excluding their respective regular outside accounting firms). Each of the Sellers and the Buyer shall bear one-half of
the costs of such accounting firm. The decision of the accounting firm with respect to all disputed matters relating to the Closing Working
Capital shall be deemed final and conclusive and shall be binding upon the Sellers and the Buyer. In addition, if the Sellers do not object
to the Closing Working Capital within the 20-day period referred to above, the Closing Working Capital shall be deemed final and conclusive
and binding upon the Sellers and the Buyer.


 






    2


     


    

 


(b)
Adjustment for Outstanding Indebtedness. The Cash Portion shall be decreased by the amount of any outstanding indebtedness
of the Company for borrowed money existing as of the Closing Date and the deducted amount shall be utilized to pay off such outstanding
indebtedness.


 


C.    Section
2.4(a) of the Securities Purchase Agreement shall be amended and restated to read as follows:


 


“(a) At the Closing,
the Buyer will (i) pay to the Sellers the Cash Portion of the Purchase Price, less $100,000 (the “Holdback Amount”)
in accordance with Section 2.5, and as adjusted in accordance with subsection 2.2(b) and, by paying such sum to the Sellers by transfer
of immediately available funds in accordance with instructions provided by the Sellers, and (ii) deliver to the Sellers all other documents,
instruments or certificates required to be delivered by the Buyer at or prior to the Closing pursuant to this Agreement, including, without
limitation, the Buyer Notes.”


 


 D. Section 2.5 shall be added to the Securities Purchase Agreement as follows:




 


“Section 2.5 Post-Closing
Matters. The parties hereto acknowledge that the closing conditions set forth in Section 7.1(h) have not been satisfied by the Sellers
as of the date hereof; however, the Buyer has agreed to proceed with the Closing, subject to the terms of this Section 2.5. Sellers hereby
covenant to use their commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to the Buyer, or cause to be delivered, as soon as reasonably practical
following the Closing, evidence that UCC No. 202002021110 filed against Nexus Offers, Inc. in favor of U.S. Small Business Administration
has been terminated. Promptly following delivery of such evidence of termination, the Buyer will pay to the Sellers the Holdback Amount
by transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with instructions provided by the Sellers.”


 


 E. Section 6.7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement shall be amended and restated to read as follows:




 


“6.7 Covenant
not to Compete. For a period of three years from and after the Closing (the “Noncompetition Period”), the Sellers
shall not engage directly or indirectly in any business that is competitive with (i) the current business of the Company; or (ii) the
business of the Buyer (in each case, the “Business”), in any geographic area in which the Business is conducted as
of the Closing Date; provided, however, that no owner of less than 1% of the outstanding stock of any publicly-traded corporation shall
be deemed to engage solely by reason thereof in any of its businesses. During the Noncompetition Period, the Sellers shall not induce
or attempt to induce any customer, or supplier of the Buyer or any affiliate of the Buyer to terminate its relationship with the Buyer
or any Affiliate of the Buyer or to enter into any business relationship to provide or purchase the same or substantially the same services
as are provided to or purchased from the Business which might harm the Buyer or any Affiliate of the Buyer. During the Noncompetition
Period, the Sellers shall not, on behalf of any entity other than the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer, hire or retain, or attempt to
hire or retain, in any capacity any Person who is, or was at any time during the preceding twelve (12) months, an employee or officer
of the Company. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Section 0 is invalid
or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to
reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable
term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid
or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which
the judgment may be appealed.”
