of counsel in corporate transactions, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company; (ii) any sale of such Securities made in
reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of said Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any
re-sale of such Securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed

g.
Legends. The Buyer understands that each Note and, until such time as the Conversion Shares have been registered under

date that can then be immediately sold, the Conversion Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form
(and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such Securities):


 


“NEITHER
THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE
HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT
BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN
A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE
144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT
OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”


 




    	 	5	 



     


    

 


The
legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of any Security
upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required by applicable state securities laws, (a) such Security is registered for
sale under an effective registration statement filed under the 1933 Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation
S without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, or (b) such
holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Security may be made without registration under the 1933 Act,
which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected. The Buyer agrees to sell all Securities,
including those represented by a certificate(s) from which the legend has been removed, in compliance with applicable prospectus
delivery requirements, if any. In the event that the Company does not accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Buyer with
respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144 or Regulation S, at the Deadline
(as such term is defined in Section 1.4(d) of the Note), it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.2 of
the Note.

owned, leased, used, operated and conducted. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation
to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership or use of property or the nature of the business
conducted by it makes such qualification necessary except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not have
a Material Adverse Effect. “Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on the business, operations,
assets, financial condition or prospects of the Company or its Subsidiaries, if any, taken as a whole, or on the transactions
contemplated hereby or by the agreements or instruments to be entered into in connection herewith. “Subsidiaries”

any equity or other ownership interest.

of Directors, or its shareholders is required, (iii) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company by its
authorized representative, and such authorized representative is the true and official representative with authority to sign this

effective date of this Agreement, (i) there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe for, puts, calls,
rights of first refusal, agreements, understandings, claims or other commitments or rights of any character whatsoever relating

of Incorporation”), the Company’s By-laws, as in effect on the date hereof (the “By-laws”), and the terms
of all securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock of the Company and the material rights of the holders thereof

upon the issuance of the Conversion Shares upon conversion of each Note. The Company further acknowledges that its obligation

f.
No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Notes by the Company and the consummation
by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance and reservation
for issuance of the Conversion Shares) will not (i) conflict with or result in a violation of any provision of the Certificate
of Incorporation or By-laws, or (ii) violate or conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default
(or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both could become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination,
amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture, patent, patent license or instrument to which the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree
(including federal and state securities laws and regulations and regulations of any self-regulatory organizations to which the
Company or its securities are subject) applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected (except for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments,
accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect). Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of its Certificate of Incorporation, By-laws or other organizational documents
and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default (and no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of time
or both could put the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in default) under, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
has taken any action or failed to take any action that would give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration
or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which
any property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected, except for possible defaults as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries, if any,
are not being conducted, and shall not be conducted so long as the Buyer owns any of the Securities, in violation of any law,
ordinance or regulation of any governmental entity. Except as specifically contemplated by this Agreement and as required under
the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities laws, the Company is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order
of, or make any filing or registration with, any court, governmental agency, regulatory agency, self-regulatory organization or
stock market or any third party in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, the
Note in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof or to issue and sell the Note in accordance with the terms hereof and to issue
the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Note. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company
is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the date hereof. The Company
is not in violation of the listing requirements of the Nasdaq National Market (“Nasdaq”), the Nasdaq SmallCap Market
(“Nasdaq SmallCap”), the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), or the NYSE MKT or equivalent exchange, and
does not reasonably anticipate that the Common Stock will be delisted by the Nasdaq, in the foreseeable future nor are the Company’s
securities “chilled” by DTC. The Company and its Subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances which might
give rise to any of the foregoing.

g.
SEC Documents; Financial Statements. The Company has timely filed all quarterly and annual reports required to be filed
by it with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934
Act”) (all of the foregoing filed prior to the date hereof and all exhibits included therein and financial statements and
schedules thereto and documents (other than exhibits to such documents) incorporated by reference therein, being hereinafter referred
to herein as the “SEC Documents”). The Company has delivered to the Buyer true and complete copies of the SEC Documents,
except for such exhibits and incorporated documents, and except as such Documents are available EDGAR filings on the SEC’s
sec.gov website. As of their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the
1934 Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC
Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted 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, not misleading. None of the statements made in any such SEC Documents is, or has been, required to be amended
or updated under applicable law (except for such statements as have been amended or updated in subsequent filings prior the date
hereof). As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents complied as to form
in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect
thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles,
consistently applied, during the periods involved and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position
of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations and
cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments). Except
as set forth in the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents, the Company has no liabilities, contingent
or otherwise, other than (i) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business subsequent to December 31, 2019, and (ii)
obligations under contracts and commitments incurred in the ordinary course of business and not required under generally accepted
accounting principles to be reflected in such financial statements, which, individually or in the aggregate, are not material
to the financial condition or operating results of the Company. The Company is subject to the reporting requirements of the 1934
Act. For the avoidance of doubt, filing of the documents required in this Section 3(g) via the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering,
Analysis, and Retrieval system (“EDGAR”) shall satisfy all delivery requirements of this Section 3(g).


 


h.
Absence of Certain Changes. Since December 31, 2019, there has been no material adverse change and no material adverse
development in the assets, liabilities, business, properties, operations, financial condition, results of operations, prospects
or 1934 Act reporting status of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.


 


i.
Absence of Litigation. There is no action, suit, claim, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public
board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or their officers or directors in their capacity as such,
that could have a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 3(i) contains a complete list and summary description of any pending or, to
the knowledge of the Company, threatened proceeding against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, without regard
to whether it would have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its Subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances
which might give rise to any of the foregoing.


 




    	 	10	 



     


    

 


j.
Patents, Copyrights, etc. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries owns or possesses the requisite licenses or rights to
use all patents, patent applications, patent rights, inventions, know-how, trade secrets, trademarks, trademark applications,
service marks, service names, trade names and copyrights (“Intellectual Property”) necessary to enable it to conduct
its business as now operated (and, as presently contemplated to be operated in the future). Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents,
there is no claim or action by any person pertaining to, or proceeding pending, or to the Company’s knowledge threatened,
which challenges the right of the Company or of a Subsidiary with respect to any Intellectual Property necessary to enable it
to conduct its business as now operated (and, as presently contemplated to be operated in the future); to the best of the Company’s
knowledge, the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ current and intended products, services and processes do not infringe
on any Intellectual Property or other rights held by any person; and the Company is unaware of any facts or circumstances which
might give rise to any of the foregoing. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect
the secrecy, confidentiality and value of their Intellectual Property.


 


k.
No Materially Adverse Contracts, Etc. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any charter, corporate
or other legal restriction, or any judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation which in the judgment of the Company’s officers
has or is expected in the future to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party
to any contract or agreement which in the judgment of the Company’s officers has or is expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.


 


l.
Tax Status. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has made or filed all federal, state and foreign income and all other
tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject (unless and only to the extent that
the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid
and unreported taxes) and 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 has set aside
on its books provisions 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. The Company has not executed a waiver with
respect to the statute of limitations relating to the assessment or collection of any foreign, federal, state or local tax. None
of the Company’s tax returns is presently being audited by any taxing authority.


 


m.
Certain Transactions. Other than as disclosed in the SEC Documents and except for arm’s length transactions pursuant
to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes payments in the ordinary course of business upon terms no less favorable
than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries could obtain from third parties and other than the grant of stock options disclosed
on Schedule 3(c), none of the officers, directors, or employees of the Company is presently a party to any transaction with the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (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.

n.
Disclosure. All information relating to or concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries set forth in this Agreement
and provided to the Buyer pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof and otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby
is true and correct in all material respects and the Company has not omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to
make the statements made herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. No event
or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or their business, properties,
prospects, operations or financial conditions, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or
announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed (assuming for this purpose that the Company’s
reports filed under the 1934 Act are being incorporated into an effective registration statement filed by the Company under the
1933 Act).


 


o.
Acknowledgment Regarding the Buyer’s Purchase of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Buyer is
acting solely in the capacity of arm’s length purchasers with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby. The Company further acknowledges that Buyer is not acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any
similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and any statement made by the Buyer

represents to the Buyer that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement has been based solely on the independent
evaluation of the Company and its representatives.


 


p.
No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has

that would require registration under the 1933 Act of the issuance of the Securities to the Buyer. The issuance of the Securities
to the Buyer will not be integrated with any other issuance of the Company’s securities (past, current or future) for purposes
of any shareholder approval provisions applicable to the Company or its securities.

the Company Permits. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in conflict with, or in default or violation of, any of

s.
Environmental Matters.


 


(i)
There are, to the Company’s knowledge, with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any predecessor of the
Company, no past or present violations of Environmental Laws (as defined below), releases of any material into the environment,
actions, activities, circumstances, conditions, events, incidents, or contractual obligations which may give rise to any common
law environmental liability or any liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of
1980 or similar federal, state, local or foreign laws and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice
with respect to any of the foregoing, nor is any action pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened in connection
with any of the foregoing. The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or foreign laws relating
to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater,
land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened
releases of chemicals, pollutants contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”)
into the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport
or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions, judgments,
licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder.


 


(ii)
Other than those that are or were stored, used or disposed of in compliance with applicable law, no Hazardous Materials are contained
on or about any real property currently owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and no Hazardous Materials
were released on or about any real property previously owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries during
the period the property was owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except in the normal course of the
Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ business.


 


(iii)
There are no underground storage tanks on or under any real property owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
that are not in compliance with applicable law.


 




    	 	13	 



     


    

 


t.
Title to Property. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents the Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title
in fee simple to all real property and good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them which is material to the
business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects or such as would
not have a Material Adverse Effect. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company and its Subsidiaries are
held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


u.
Internal Accounting Controls. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents the Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintain
a system of internal accounting controls sufficient, in the judgment of the Company’s board of directors, 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 generally accepted accounting principles
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 is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals
and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.


 


v.
Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any director, officer, agent, employee
or other person acting on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary has, in the course of his actions for, or on behalf of, the
Company, used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political
activity; made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate
funds; violated or is in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, or made any
bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or
employee.


 


w.
Solvency. The Company (after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) is solvent (i.e.,
its assets have a fair market value in excess of the amount required to pay its probable liabilities on its existing debts as
they become absolute and matured) and currently the Company has no information that would lead it to reasonably conclude that
the Company would not, after giving effect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, have the ability to, nor does it
intend to take any action that would impair its ability to, pay its debts from time to time incurred in connection therewith as
such debts mature. The Company did not receive a qualified opinion from its auditors with respect to its most recent fiscal year
end and, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, does not anticipate or know of any basis upon
which its auditors might issue a qualified opinion in respect of its current fiscal year. For the avoidance of doubt any disclosure
of the Borrower’s ability to continue as a “going concern” shall not, by itself, be a violation of this Section
3(w).


 


x.
No Investment Company. The Company is not, and upon the issuance and sale of the Securities as contemplated by this Agreement
will not be an “investment company” required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (an “Investment
Company”). The Company is not controlled by an Investment Company.


 




    	 	14	 



     


    

 


y.
Insurance. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are insured or are in the process of securing insurance by insurers
of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management of the Company believes
to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and its Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any
such Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to secure and then renew insurance coverage as and when such
coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that
would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Upon written request the Company will provide to the Buyer true and correct copies of
all policies relating to directors’ and officers’ liability coverage, errors and omissions coverage, and commercial
general liability coverage.


 


z.
Bad Actor. No officer or director of the Company would be disqualified under Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act as amended
on the basis of being a “bad actor” as that term is established in the September 19, 2013 Small Entity Compliance
Guide published by the SEC.


 


aa.
Shell Status. The Company represents that it is not a “shell” issuer and has never been a “shell”
issuer, or that if it previously has been a “shell” issuer, that at least twelve (12) months have passed since the
Company has reported Form 10 type information indicating that it is no longer a “shell” issuer. Further, the Company
will instruct its counsel to either (i) write a 144- 3(a)(9) opinion to allow for salability of the Conversion Shares or (ii)
accept such opinion from the Buyer’s counsel.


 


bb.
No-Off Balance Sheet Arrangements. There is no transaction, arrangement, or other relationship between the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries and an unconsolidated or other off-balance sheet entity that is required to be disclosed by the Company in
its 1934 Act filings and is not so disclosed or that otherwise could be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


cc.
Manipulation of Price. The Company has not, and to its knowledge no one acting on its behalf has: (i) taken, directly or
indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result, or that could reasonably be expected to cause or result, in the stabilization
or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Securities, (ii) sold,
bid for, purchased, or paid any compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the Securities, or (iii) paid or agreed to pay
to any person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of the Company.


 


dd.
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company and each Subsidiary is in material compliance with all applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof, and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder
that are effective as of the date hereof.


 




    	 	15	 



     


    

 


ee.
Employee Relations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any collective bargaining agreement or
employs any member of a union. The Company believes that its and its Subsidiaries’ relations with their respective employees
are good. No executive officer (as defined in Rule 501(f) promulgated under the 1933 Act) or other key employee of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries has notified the Company or any such Subsidiary that such officer intends to leave the Company or any
such Subsidiary or otherwise terminate such officer’s employment with the Company or any such Subsidiary. To the knowledge
of the Company, no executive officer or other key employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is, or is now expected to
be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement,
non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each
such executive officer or other key employee (as the case may be) does not subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any
liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal, state,
local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions
of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.


 


ff.
Breach of Representations and Warranties by the Company. The Company agrees that if the Company breaches any of the representations
or warranties set forth in this Section 3, and in addition to any other remedies available to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement
and it being considered an Event of Default under Section 3.5 of the Note, the Company shall pay to the Buyer the Standard Liquidated
Damages Amount in cash or in shares of Common Stock at the option of the Company, until such breach is cured. If the Company elects
to pay the Standard Liquidated Damages Amounts in shares of Common Stock, such shares shall be issued at the Conversion Price
at the time of payment.


 


4.
COVENANTS.


 


a.
Best Efforts. The parties shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts to satisfy timely each of the conditions
described in Section 7 and 8 of this Agreement.


 


b.
Form D. The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide
a copy thereof to the Buyer promptly after such filing.


 


c.
Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds from the sale of the Notes for working capital and other general corporate
purposes and shall not, directly or indirectly, use such proceeds for any loan to or investment in any other corporation, partnership,
enterprise or other person (except in connection with its currently existing direct or indirect Subsidiaries).

d.
Right of First Refusal. Unless it shall have first delivered to the Buyer, at least seventy two (72) hours prior to the
closing of such Future Offering (as defined herein), written notice describing the proposed Future Offering, including the terms
and conditions thereof, and providing the Buyer an option during the seventy two (72) hour period following delivery of such notice
to purchase the securities being offered in the Future Offering on the same terms as contemplated by such Future Offering (the
limitations referred to in this sentence and the preceding sentence are collectively referred to as the “Right of First
Refusal”) (and subject to the exceptions described below), the Company will not conduct any equity financing (including
debt with an equity component) (“Future Offerings”) during the period beginning on First Closing Date and ending twelve
(12) months following the later of (i) the First Closing Date and (ii) each subsequent Additional Closing Date. In the event the
terms and conditions of a proposed Future Offering are amended in any respect after delivery of the notice to the Buyer concerning
the proposed Future Offering, the Company shall deliver a new notice to the Buyer describing the amended terms and conditions
of the proposed Future Offering and the Buyer thereafter shall have an option during the seventy two (72) hour period following
delivery of such new notice to purchase its pro rata share of the securities being offered on the same terms as contemplated by
such proposed Future Offering, as amended. The foregoing sentence shall apply to successive amendments to the terms and conditions
of any proposed Future Offering. The Right of First Refusal shall not apply to any transaction involving (i) issuances of securities
in a firm commitment underwritten public offering (excluding a continuous offering pursuant to Rule 415 under the 1933 Act), (ii)
issuances to employees, officers, directors, contractors, consultants or other advisors approved by the Board, (iii) issuances
to strategic partners or other parties in connection with a commercial relationship, or providing the Company with equipment leases,
real property leases or similar transactions approved by the Board (iv) issuances of securities as consideration for a merger,
consolidation or purchase of assets, or in connection with any strategic partnership or joint venture (the primary purpose of
which is not to raise equity capital), or in connection with the disposition or acquisition of a business, product or license
by the Company. The Right of First Refusal also shall not apply to the issuance of securities upon exercise or conversion of the
Company’s options, warrants or other convertible securities outstanding as of the date hereof or to the grant of additional
options or warrants, or the issuance of additional securities, under any Company stock option or restricted stock plan approved
by the shareholders of the Company.

copies of all press releases issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; and (iii) contemporaneously with the making available
or giving to the shareholders of the Company, copies of any notices or other information the Company makes available or gives
to such shareholders. For the avoidance of doubt, filing the documents required in (i) above via EDGAR or releasing any documents
set forth in (ii) above via a recognized wire service shall satisfy the delivery requirements of this Section 4(e).

f.
Listing. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of the Conversion Shares upon each national securities exchange
or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance)
and, so long as the Buyer owns any of the Securities, shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so
listed, such listing of all Conversion Shares from time to time issuable upon conversion of the Note. The Company will obtain
and, so long as the Buyer owns any of the Securities, maintain the listing and trading of its Common Stock on the Nasdaq, NasdaqSmallCap,

on which the Common Stock is then listed regarding the continued eligibility of the Common Stock for listing on such exchanges.

g.

and (ii) is a publicly traded corporation whose Common Stock is listed for trading on the Nasdaq, NasdaqSmallCap, NYSE or AMEX.


 


h.
No Integration. The Company shall not make any offers or sales of any security (other than the Securities) under circumstances
that would require registration of the Securities being offered or sold hereunder under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of
the Securities to be integrated with any other offering of securities by the Company for the purpose of any stockholder approval
provision applicable to the Company or its securities.


 


i.
Failure to Comply with the 1934 Act. So long as the Buyer beneficially owns any Note, the Company shall comply with the
quarterly and annual reporting requirements of the 1934 Act; and the Company shall continue to be subject to the reporting requirements
of the 1934 Act.


 


j.
Trading Activities. Neither Buyer nor its affiliates has an open short position (or other hedging or similar transactions)
in the Common Stock of the Company and the Buyer agrees that it shall not, and that it will cause its affiliates not to, engage

that the sale of Conversion Shares by the Buyer or its affiliates, successors and assigns is exempt from the registration requirements
of the 1933 Act pursuant to Rule 144 (provided the requirements of Rule 144 are satisfied and provided the Conversion Shares are
not then registered under the 1933 Act for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement). Should the Company’s
legal counsel fail for any reason to issue the Legal Counsel Opinion, the Buyer may (at the Company’s cost) secure another
legal counsel to issue the Legal Counsel Opinion, and the Company will instruct its transfer agent to accept such opinion.


 


m.

    	 	19	 



     


    

 


o.
Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent to issue certificates,
registered in the name of the Buyer or its nominee, for the Conversion Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by
the Buyer to the Company upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with the terms thereof (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent
Instructions”). In the event that the Company proposes to replace its transfer agent, the Company shall provide, prior to
the effective date of such replacement, a fully executed Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions in a form as initially delivered
pursuant to the this Agreement (including but not limited to the provision to irrevocably reserve shares of Common Stock in the

under the 1933 Act or the date on which the Conversion Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the
number of Securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, all such certificates shall bear the restrictive
legend specified in Section 2(g) of this Agreement. The Company warrants that: (i) no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer
Agent Instructions referred to in this Section, and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(f) hereof (in the case
of the Conversion Shares, prior to registration of the Conversion Shares under the 1933 Act or the date on which the Conversion
Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of Securities as of a particular date that can
then be immediately sold), will be given by the Company to its transfer agent and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely
transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the Note; (ii) it will
not direct its transfer agent not to transfer or delay, impair, and/or hinder its transfer agent in transferring (or issuing)
(electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for Conversion Shares to be issued to the Buyer upon conversion of or
otherwise pursuant to the Notes as and when required by the Notes and this Agreement; and (iii) it will not fail to remove (or
directs its transfer agent not to remove or impairs, delays, and/or hinders its transfer agent from removing) any restrictive
legend (or to withdraw any stop transfer instructions in respect thereof) on any certificate for any Conversion Shares issued
to the Buyer upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to the Notes as and when required by the Note and this Agreement. Nothing
in this Section shall affect in any way the Buyer’s obligations and agreement set forth in Section 2(g) hereof to comply
with all applicable prospectus delivery requirements, if any, upon re-sale of the Securities. If the Buyer provides the Company,
at the cost of the Company not to exceed $300, with (i) an opinion of counsel in form, substance and scope customary for opinions
in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Securities may be made without registration under
the 1933 Act and such sale or transfer is effected or (ii) the Buyer provides reasonable assurances that the Securities can be
sold pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall permit the transfer, and, in the case of the Conversion Shares, promptly instruct
its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates, free from restrictive legend, in such name and in such denominations as
specified by the Buyer. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm
to the Buyer, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges
that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section may be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach
or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section, that the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other
available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate transfer, without the necessity of showing
economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

hereof. Additionally, a 12% original issue discount has been added to the Principal Amount of each First Note.

or modifications of the Transaction Documents or any consents or waivers of provisions in the Transaction Documents, fees for
the preparation of opinions of counsel, and costs of restructuring the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

jurisdiction and venue as the Buyer may determine in its sole discretion. The parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waive
any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction

Agreement or any other Transaction Document 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.

be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts

prior written consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 2(f), the Buyer may assign its rights hereunder

as they are incurred.


 


j.
Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things,

    	 	26	 



     


    

 


l.
Remedies. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the
Buyer by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the
remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Agreement will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or
threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Agreement, that the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other
available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining,
preventing or curing any breach of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the necessity
of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.


 


m.
Publicity. The Company, and the Buyer shall have the right to review a reasonable period of time before issuance of any
press releases, SEC, Nasdaq or FINRA filings, or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby;
provided, however, that the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of the Buyer, to make any press
release or SEC, Nasdaq (or other applicable trading market) or FINRA filings with respect to such transactions as is required
by applicable law and regulations (although the Buyer shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release
prior to its release and shall be provided with a copy thereof and be given an opportunity to comment thereon).


 


n.
Indemnification. In consideration of the Buyer’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and acquiring the Securities
hereunder, and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under this Agreement or the Notes, the Company shall
defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer and its stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees
and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation,
those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”)
from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages,
and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification
hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation
or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement, certificate, instrument or document contemplated
hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement or the Notes
or any other agreement, certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (c) any cause of action, suit or
claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf
of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement
or the Notes or any other agreement, certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any transaction
financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, or
(iii) the status of the Buyer or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement. 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 that is permissible
under applicable law.

o.
Nasdaq Approval. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the total number of shares of the Company’s
Common Stock that may be issued under this Agreement, and the Note, shall be limited to 19.99% of the Company’s issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock as of April 7, 2020 (the “Exchange Cap”). The Exchange Cap shall be appropriately
adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, should the application of the Exchange Cap prevent Buyer from converting
any of the Note (including fees and interest) into Common Stock (the “Forfeited Stock”), at the option of the
Buyer, the Company shall pay the Buyer liquidated damages in an amount equal to $2.00 per share of Forfeited Stock (“Exchange
Cap Damages”) within no more than five (5) trading days from the date on which Buyer informs the Company in writing
that it has triggered the Exchange Cap. In the event the Exchange Cap Damages are not paid in full according to the terms herein
it shall be an Event of Default under section 3.4 of the Note. Upon payment in full of the Exchange Cap Damages, the Note will
be deemed paid in full. The parties acknowledge and agree that the damages which will result to Buyer if it is unable to convert
a portion of the Note due to the Exchange Cap shall be extremely difficult or impossible to establish or prove, and agree that
the payment of the Exchange Cap Damages is a reasonable estimate of potential damages and shall constitute liquidated damages.
