a)        Payment
of Interest in Cash or Kind. The Company shall pay interest to the Holder at the Interest Rate on the aggregate principal amount
of the principal being converted on any Conversion Date (as to that principal amount then being converted), and on the Maturity
Date (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”) (if any Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, then
the applicable payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day), in cash or, at the Company’s option, in duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (the dollar amount to be paid in shares, the “Interest
Share Amount”) or a combination thereof; provided, however, that payment in shares of Common Stock on account
of interest may only occur if (i) all of the Equity Conditions have been met (unless waived by the Holder in writing) during the
2 Trading Days immediately prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date (the “Interest Notice Period”) and
through and including the date such shares of Common Stock are actually issued to the Holder, (ii) the notice of Conversion delivered
by the Holder to Company affirms that the issuance of the Conversion Shares on account of principal and interest will not violate
Section 4(c) hereunder. To the extent that any such issuance of Conversion Shares on account of interest under this Section 2(a)

Shares at the next Conversion Date. In the event that the Company shall elect to pay all or any part of the interest amount in
Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder shall be determined by dividing (i) the Interest Share
Amount, by (ii) the Conversion Price then in effect.


 


b)        Payment
of Principal Amount in Cash or Kind. On the Maturity Date, in the event that the Holder has not elected to convert all or any
portion of the Principal Amount into Common Stock, the Company may pay all or any portion the then outstanding principal amount
of this Debenture in cash or, at the Company’s option, in duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
shares of Common Stock (the dollar amount to be paid in shares, the “Principal Share Amount”) or a combination
thereof; provided, however, that payment in shares of Common Stock on account of the principal amount may only occur
if (i) all of the Equity Conditions have been met (unless waived by the Holder in writing) during the 2 Trading Days immediately
prior to the applicable Maturity Date (the “Principal Notice Period”) and through and including the date such
shares of Common Stock are actually issued to the Holder, (ii) the notice of Conversion delivered by the Holder to Company affirms
that the issuance of the Conversion Shares on account of principal and interest will not violate Section 4(c) hereunder. To the
extent that any such issuance of Conversion Shares on account of the principal amount under this Section 2(b) would violate section
4(c), such principal amount shall be paid in cash. In the event that the Company shall elect to pay all or any part of the principal
amount in Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder shall be determined by dividing (i) the Principal
Share Amount, by (ii) the Conversion Price then in effect.

c)        Company’s
Election to Pay Principal and/or Interest in Cash or Shares of Common Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions herein, including
the existence of the Equity Conditions, the decision whether to pay interest or the principal amount hereunder in cash, shares
of Common Stock or a combination thereof shall be at the sole discretion of the Company.


 


d)        Interest
Calculations. Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, consisting
of twelve 30 calendar day periods, and shall accrue daily commencing on the Original Issue Date until payment in full of the outstanding
principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts which may become due hereunder,
has been made. Interest shall cease to accrue with respect to any principal amount converted, provided that, the Company actually
delivers the Conversion Shares within the time period required by Section 4(d)(ii) herein. Interest hereunder will be paid to the
Person in whose name this Debenture is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of this Debenture
(the “Debenture Register”). Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the Company pays interest partially
in cash and partially in shares of Common Stock to the holders of the Debentures, then such payment of cash shall be distributed
ratably among the holders of the then-outstanding Debentures based on their (or their predecessor’s) initial purchases of
Debentures pursuant to the Subscription Agreement.


 


e)        Late
Fee. All overdue accrued and unpaid interest to be paid hereunder shall entail a late fee at an interest rate equal to the
lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Late Fees”) which shall accrue
daily from the date such interest is due hereunder through and including the date of actual payment in full.


 


f)        Prepayment.
Except as otherwise set forth in this Debenture, the Company may not prepay any portion of the principal amount of this Debenture
without the prior written consent of the Holder.


 


Section 3.         
Registration of Transfers and Exchanges.


 


a)        Different
Denominations. This Debenture is exchangeable for an equal aggregate principal amount of Debentures of different authorized

or exchange.

b)        Investment

in the Subscription Agreement and may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance with the Subscription Agreement and applicable
federal and state securities laws and regulations.


 


c)        Reliance
on Debenture Register. Prior to due presentment for transfer to the Company of this Debenture, the Company and any agent of
the Company may treat the Person in whose name this Debenture is duly registered on the Debenture Register as the owner hereof
for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Debenture is overdue, and
neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


Section 4.         
Conversion.


 


a)        Voluntary
Conversion. At any time after the Original Issue Date until this Debenture is no longer outstanding, this Debenture shall be
convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time (subject
to the conversion limitations set forth in Section 4(c) hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the
Company a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (each, a “Notice of Conversion”),
specifying therein the principal amount of this Debenture to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected
(such date, the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion
Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is actually delivered hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder
shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Company unless the entire principal amount of this Debenture,
plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the
outstanding principal amount of this Debenture in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall
maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). The Company may deliver an objection
to any Notice of Conversion within 1 Business Day of delivery of such Notice of Conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy,
the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.


 


b)        Conversion
Price. The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to $0.25, subject to adjustment herein (the
“Conversion Price”).


 




    	8



    	 



    

 


c)        Conversion
Limitations. Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture, pursuant to Section 4 or otherwise,
to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after conversion the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates,
and any other person or entity acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates), would beneficially
own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of this Section beneficial ownership shall
be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Holder
is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. The Company shall have no obligation to verify
or confirm the accuracy of such filings.  In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined
after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Debenture, by the Holder or its
Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial
Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving
effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Debenture. The Holder, upon not less than 61 days’
prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4(c), provided
that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately
after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Debenture held by the Holder and the provisions
of this Section 4(c) shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day
after such notice is delivered to the Company. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of
this Debenture.


 


d)        Mechanics
of Conversion.


 


i.        Conversion
Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal and Interest Amount. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion
hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid
interest of this Debenture to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price.


 


ii.        Delivery
of Certificate Upon Conversion. Not later than four Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery
Date”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder (A) a certificate or certificates representing
the Conversion Shares which, on or after the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date, shall be free of restrictive legends
and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be required by the Subscription Agreement) representing the number of
Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of this Debenture and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid
interest (if the Company has elected or is required to pay accrued interest in cash). On the six month anniversary of the Original
Issue Date, the Company shall use its best efforts to deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the
Company under this Section 4(d) electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation
performing similar functions.


 


iii.        Failure
to Deliver Certificates. If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to
or as directed by the applicable Holder by the fourth Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect
by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion,
in which event the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Debenture delivered to the Company and the Holder
shall promptly return to the Company the Common Stock certificates representing the principal amount of this Debenture unsuccessfully
tendered for conversion to the Company.


 




    	9



    	 



    

 


iv.        Obligation
Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion
of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by
the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against
any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach
or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of
law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation
of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that
such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder. In the
event the Holder of this Debenture shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof, the Company may
not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in
any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and
or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Debenture shall have been sought and obtained, and the Company posts a surety bond
for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 130% of the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, which is subject to
the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and
the proceeds of which shall be payable to the Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the
Company shall issue Conversion Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails for any
reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii) by the fifth Trading Day after the
Conversion Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of
principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the seventh (7th) Trading
Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such fourth (4th) Trading Day until such
certificates are delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of
Default pursuant to Section 8 hereof for the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified
herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the
Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

v.        Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder,
if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates by the Share Delivery Date pursuant
to Section 4(d)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open
market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver
in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion
relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in
addition to any other remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase
price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock that the Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale
price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B)
at the option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Debenture in a principal amount equal to the principal amount
of the attempted conversion or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Company
had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(d)(ii). For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having
a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of this Debenture with respect to
which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation
was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder
$1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In
and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue
any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance
and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common
Stock upon conversion of this Debenture as required pursuant to the terms hereof.


 


vi.        Reservation
of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its
authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Debenture and payment
of interest on this Debenture, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights
of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Debentures), not less than such aggregate number of shares of the
Common Stock as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement) be issuable (taking into account
the adjustments and restrictions of Section 5) upon the conversion of the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture and payment
of interest hereunder. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

vii.        Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Debenture.
As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall at
its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by
the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.


 


viii.        Transfer
Taxes. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Debenture shall be made without charge
to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such
certificates, provided that, the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of this Debenture
so converted and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons
requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction
of the Company that such tax has been paid.


 


Section 5.         Certain
Adjustments.


 


a)        Stock
Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise
makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents
(which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of, or payment
of interest on, the Debentures), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines
(including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues,
in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion
Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury
shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately
after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become
effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.


 




    	12



    	 



    

 


b)        Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the
Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction
or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed
pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property,
or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common
Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental
Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for
each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental
Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence
of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of 1 share of Common
Stock (the “Alternate Consideration”). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion
Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable
in respect of 1 share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among
the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.
If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction,
then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Debenture
following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company
or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new debenture consistent with the foregoing provisions
and evidencing the Holder’s right to convert such debenture into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant
to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with
the provisions of this Section 5(e) and insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted
upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.


 


c)        Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
For purposes of this Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall
be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.


 


d)        Notice
to the Holder.


 


i.        Adjustment
to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 5, the Company shall
promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement
of the facts requiring such adjustment.

ii.        Notice
to Allow Conversion by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on
the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C)
the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required
in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale
or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock
is converted into other securities, cash or property or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office
or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Debenture, and shall cause to be delivered to the Holder at its last
address as it shall appear upon the Debenture Register, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective
date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution,
redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record
to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date
as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common
Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the
validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. The Holder is entitled to convert this Debenture during
the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such notice.


 


Section 6.        Rule
144. The Company covenants to use its reasonable best efforts to facilitate the public resale by Holder(s) of any Conversion
Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended.


 


Section 7.        Negative
Covenants. As long as any portion of this Debenture remains outstanding, unless the holders of at least 51% in principal amount
of the then outstanding Debentures shall have otherwise given prior written consent, the Company shall not, and shall not permit
any of its subsidiaries (whether or not a Subsidiary on the Original Issue Date) to, directly or indirectly:

all of the obligations of the Company under this Debenture and the other Transaction Documents pursuant to written agreements in

Holder a new debenture of such successor entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to
this Debenture, including, without limitation, having a principal amount and interest rate equal to the principal amount and the
interest rate of this Debenture and having similar ranking to this Debenture, which shall be satisfactory to the Holder (any such
