Section 2.          Interest.


 


a)          Payment
of Interest in Cash or Kind. The Company shall pay interest to the Holder on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding
principal amount of this Series A Debenture at the rate of 2.25% per annum, payable quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1 and
October 1, beginning on the first such date after the Original Issue Date, on each 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 at the
Interest Conversion Rate (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 may only occur if (i) all of the Equity Conditions
have been met (unless waived by the Holder in writing) during the 20 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 Company shall have given the Holder notice in accordance with the notice requirements set
forth below, (iii) the then applicable Conversion Price is less than the Interest Conversion Rate and (iv) as to such Interest
Payment Date, prior to such Interest Notice Period (but not more than five (5) Trading Days prior to the commencement of such Interest
Notice Period), the Company shall have delivered to the Holder’s account with The Depository Trust Company a number of shares
of Common Stock to be applied against such Interest Share Amount equal to the quotient of (x) the applicable Interest Share Amount
divided by (y) the lesser of the (i) then Conversion Price and (ii) the Interest Conversion Rate assuming for such purposes that
the Interest Payment Date is the Trading Day immediately prior to the commencement of the Interest Notice Period (the “Interest
Conversion Shares”).


 


b)          Company’s
Election to Pay Interest in Cash or Kind. Subject to the terms and conditions herein, the decision whether to pay interest
hereunder in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof shall be at the sole discretion of the Company. Prior to the
commencement of any Interest Notice Period, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a written notice of its election to pay interest
hereunder on the applicable Interest Payment Date either in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof and the Interest
Share Amount as to the applicable Interest Payment Date, provided that the Company may indicate in such notice that the election
contained in such notice shall apply to future Interest Payment Dates until revised by a subsequent notice. During any Interest
Notice Period, the Company’s election (whether specific to an Interest Payment Date or continuous) shall be irrevocable as
to such Interest Payment Date. Subject to the aforementioned conditions, failure to timely deliver such written notice to the Holder
shall be deemed an election by the Company to pay the interest on such Interest Payment Date in cash. At any time the Company delivers
a notice to the Holder of its election to pay the interest in shares of Common Stock, the Company shall timely file a prospectus
supplement pursuant to Rule 424 disclosing such election. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to
the Holder on an Interest Payment Date shall be reduced by the number of Interest Conversion Shares previously issued to the Holder
in connection with such Interest Payment Date.


 



    	7



    	 



    




 


c)          Interest
Calculations. Interest 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. Payment of interest
in shares of Common Stock (other than the Interest Conversion Shares issued prior to an Interest Notice Period) shall otherwise
occur pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii) herein and, solely for purposes of the payment of interest in shares, the Interest Payment Date
shall be deemed the Conversion Date. 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(c)(ii) herein. Interest hereunder
will be paid to the Person in whose name this Series A Debenture is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration
and transfers of the Debentures (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 Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that none of foreclosure upon,
any results of foreclosure upon or any proceeds of foreclosure upon any of the Collateral constitute payments made by the Company
for purposes of this sentence.


 


d)          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 12% 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. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, if, on any Interest Payment Date the Company has elected to pay accrued interest in the form
of Common Stock but the Company is not permitted to pay accrued interest in Common Stock because it fails to satisfy the conditions
for payment in Common Stock set forth in Section 2(a) herein, then, at the option of the Holder, the Company, in lieu of delivering
either shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 2 or paying the regularly scheduled interest payment in cash, shall deliver,
within three (3) Trading Days of each applicable Interest Payment Date, an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the number
of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the Holder in connection with the payment of interest due on such Interest Payment
Date multiplied by (y) the highest VWAP during the period commencing on the Interest Payment Date and ending on the Trading Day
prior to the date such payment is actually made. If any Interest Conversion Shares are issued to the Holder in connection with
an Interest Payment Date and are not applied against an Interest Share Amount, then the Holder shall promptly return such excess
shares to the Company.


 



    	8



    	 



    




 


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


 


Section 3.            Registration
of Transfers and Exchanges.


 


a)          Different
Denominations. This Series A Debenture is exchangeable for an equal aggregate principal amount of Series A Debentures of different
authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be payable for such registration
of transfer or exchange.


 


b)          Investment
Representations. This Series A Debenture has been issued subject to certain investment representations of the original Holder
set forth in the Purchase Agreement and may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance with the Purchase 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 Series A Debenture, the Company and any
agent of the Company may treat the Person in whose name this Series A 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 Series
A Debenture is overdue, and neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 



    	9



    	 



    




 


Section 4.            Conversion.


 


a)          Voluntary
Conversion. At any time after the both (i) the Original Issue Date and (ii) the earlier to occur of (1) the Company has received
shareholder approval as required by its Principal Market for the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Series
A Debenture and (2) six months after the Original Issue Date (or until such later date if the Company continues to seek shareholder
approval at the request of the Holders), and until this Series A Debenture is no longer outstanding, this Series A 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 this Section 4(a) and in Section 4(d) hereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if the Company has not obtained Shareholder Approval, the Company may not issue a number of shares of Common Stock, which, when
aggregated with any shares of Common Stock issued (i) pursuant to any Debentures issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (whether
upon conversion or as payment of interest), and (ii) upon prior exercise of any Warrant issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement,
would exceed 1,622,612, 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 the Purchase Agreement (such number of shares, the “Issuable
Maximum”). The Holder and the holders of the other Debentures and Warrants issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement
shall be entitled to a portion of the Issuable Maximum equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Holder’s original
Subscription Amount by (y) the aggregate original Subscription Amount of all holders pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. In addition,
the Holder may allocate its pro-rata portion of the Issuable Maximum among Warrants and Debentures held by it in its sole discretion.
Such portion shall be adjusted upward ratably in the event a Purchaser (other than the Holder) no longer holds any Warrants or
Debentures and the amount of shares issued to such Purchaser pursuant to its Warrants and Debentures was less than such Purchaser’s
pro-rata share of the Issuable Maximum. 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 Series A 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 deemed delivered hereunder. No ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required,
nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be required.
To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Series A Debenture to the Company
unless the entire principal amount of this Series A 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 Series A 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 one (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. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Series A Debenture, acknowledge
and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Series A Debenture, the
unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Series A Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.


 


b)          Conversion
Price. The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to $0.75, subject to adjustment herein (the
“Conversion Price”).


 


		c)	      Mechanics of Conversion.



 


i.          Conversion
Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal 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 of this Series A Debenture to be converted
by (y) the Conversion Price.


 



    	10



    	 



    




 


ii.          Delivery
of Certificate Upon Conversion. Not later than three (3) 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 earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective
Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be required by the Purchase
Agreement) representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of this Series A Debenture (including,
if the Company has given continuous notice pursuant to Section 2(b) for payment of interest in shares of Common Stock at least
20 Trading Days prior to the date on which the Notice of Conversion is delivered to the Company, shares of Common Stock representing
the payment of accrued interest otherwise determined pursuant to Section 2(a) but assuming that the Interest Notice Period is the
20 Trading Days period immediately prior to the date on which the Notice of Conversion is delivered to the Company and excluding
for such issuance the condition that the Company deliver Interest Conversion Shares as to such interest payment prior to the commencement
of the Interest Notice Period) 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 or after the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date
or (ii) the Effective Date, the Company shall deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Company under
this Section 4(c) 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 Share Delivery 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 Series A Debenture delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly
return to the Company the Common Stock certificates issued to such Holder pursuant to the rescinded Conversion Notice.


 



    	11



    	 



    




 


iv.          Obligation
Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion
of this Series A 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 Series A 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 Series A Debenture shall have been sought and obtained. 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(c)(ii) by the Share Delivery 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 third (3rd) Trading Day after such liquidated damages
begin to accrue and increasing to $40 per Trading Day on the sixth Trading Day after such damages begin to accrue) for each Trading
Day after such Share Delivery Date until such certificates are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. 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(c)(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, if any, 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 Series A Debenture in a principal amount equal to the principal
amount of the attempted conversion (in which case such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) 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(c)(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 Series A 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 Series A Debenture as required pursuant to the
terms hereof.

vi.          Reservation
of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will use its best efforts to promptly seek shareholder approval
for an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to permit the
conversion of this Series A Debenture in its entirety and, at all times thereafter, reserve and keep available out of its authorized
and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Series A Debenture and payment of
interest on this Series A 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 Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into
account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 5) upon the conversion of the then outstanding principal amount of this Series
A 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 and, if the Registration Statement is then
effective under the Securities Act, shall be registered for public resale in accordance with such Registration Statement (subject
to such Holder’s compliance with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement).


 


vii.          Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Series A Debenture
or payment of interest on this Series A Debenture. As to any fraction of a share which the 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.


 



    	13



    	 



    




 


viii.          Transfer
Taxes and Expenses. Each issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock on conversion of this Series A Debenture or payment
of interest under this Series A 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 Series A 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. The
Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Conversion and all fees to the Depository
Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery
of the Conversion Shares.


 


d)          Holder’s
Conversion Limitations. The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Series A Debenture, and a Holder shall not have
the right to convert any portion of this Series A Debenture, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth
on the applicable Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons 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 the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned
by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Series A Debenture
with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable
upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of this Series A Debenture beneficially owned by the Holder
or any of its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the
Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation,
any other Debentures, preferred stock or the Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set
forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained
in this Section 4(d) applies, the determination of whether this Series A Debenture is convertible (in relation to other securities
owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which principal amount of this Series A Debenture is convertible shall
be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s
determination of whether this Series A Debenture may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together
with any Affiliates) and which principal amount of this Series A Debenture is convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time
it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph
and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In
addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
For purposes of this Section 4(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent
periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company,
or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally
and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. 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
Series A 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 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock
outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures
held by the applicable Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in
strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4(d) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective
or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary
or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations
contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Series A Debenture.

Section 5.         Certain
Adjustments.


 


a)          Stock
Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Series A 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.


 



    	15



    	 



    




 


b)          Subsequent
Equity Sales. If the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Series A Debenture is outstanding,
shall sell or grant any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce
any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, at an effective
price per share less than the Conversion Price then in effect (such lower price, the “Base Share Price” and
such issuances collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being understood and agreed that if the holder of the
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset
provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which
are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that
is less than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date
of the Dilutive Issuance at such effective price), then simultaneously with the consummation of each Dilutive Issuance the Conversion
Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Share Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments shall be made, paid or issued under this Section 5(b) in
respect of an Exempt Issuance. The Company shall notify the Holder, in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance
or deemed issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 5(b), indicating therein the applicable
issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the “Dilutive
Issuance Notice”). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant
to this Section 5(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Conversion Shares
based upon the Base Share Price regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Share Price in the Notice of Conversion.
If the Company enters into a Variable Rate Transaction, despite the prohibition thereon in the Purchase Agreement, the Company
shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise price at
which such securities may be converted or exercised. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 5(b) shall terminate
and be of no further force or effect after the later of (i) the one year anniversary of the Original Issue Date, and (ii) the earlier
of (A) six months after the effective date of the registration statement registering all of the shares of Common Stock required
to be registered pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (in the event multiple registration statements are required to register
all such shares, then this provision shall refer to the last of such registration statements to become effective), and (B) six
months after the date that all of the Warrant Shares and shares of Common Stock issued or issuable under this Series A Debentures
are freely tradable under Rule 144 without the requirement to be in compliance with the current public information requirements
thereunder.


 


c)          Subsequent
Rights Offerings. If the Company, at any time while this Series A Debenture is outstanding, shall issue rights, options or
warrants to all holders of Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share
(a “New Issue Price”) that is lower than the Conversion Price on the record date referenced below, then the
Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal such New Issue Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such rights, options or
warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such rights, options or warrants.


 



    	16



    	 



    




 


d)          Pro
Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Series A Debenture is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders
of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or
warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of
which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the
portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness or rights or warrants so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of
the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall be described in a
statement provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights
applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become
effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.


 


e)          Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Series A Debenture is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one
or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company,
directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially
all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange
offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell,
tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the
outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification,
reorganization or recapitalization 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, (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related
transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization,
recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or
party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other
business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Series
A 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 (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(d) on the conversion
of this Series A Debenture), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company,
if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable
as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Series A Debenture
is convertible immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(d) on the conversion
of this Series A Debenture) is convertible. 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 one (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 Series
A Debenture following such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in
which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of
the Company under this Series A Debenture and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 5(e) pursuant to written agreements and shall, at the option of the holder of this Series A
Debenture, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Series A Debenture a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written
instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Series A Debenture which is convertible for a corresponding number
of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable
and receivable upon conversion of this Series A Debenture (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Series A
Debenture) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with a conversion price which applies the conversion price hereunder to such
shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental
Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being
for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Series A Debenture immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental
Transaction). Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted
for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Series A Debenture and the other Transaction
Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and
power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Series A Debenture and the other Transaction
Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

f)          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.


 



    	18



    	 



    




 


g)          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, or 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 Series A 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. To the extent that any notice provided
hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company
shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled
to convert this Series A Debenture during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of
the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.


 



    	19



    	 



    




 


Section 6.          Mandatory
Prepayment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from and after the Original Issue Date until December 31, 2015,
at the end of each calendar quarter, the Company shall determine the aggregate amount of cash received by the Company for (i) the
exercise of any warrants, (i) issuance of any capital stock or other securities exercisable for or exchangeable into shares of
capital stock and (iii) capital raised by any other means (such aggregate amount, the “Capital Raised”). To
the extent that the Capital Raised exceeds $4 million (such excess, the “Excess Capital”), the Company shall,
within five (5) Trading Days from the end of each such calendar quarter, send the Holder a notice indicating the amount of Capital
Raised from the Original Issue Date to date. The Holder hereof shall within five (5) Trading Days, by notice to the Company, elect
whether to receive repayment of all or part of the Excess Capital. The Company shall pay to the Holder (and the Holders of other
Debt Securities electing to receive repayment of the Excess Capital) the portion of the Excess Capital (less any Excess Capital
previously repaid) which equals the amount obtained by multiplying the Excess Capital by a fraction, the numerator of which is
the principal amount of this Series A Debenture and the denominator of which is the principal amount of all Debt Securities which
have requested repayment of the Excess Capital.


 


Section 7.          Negative
Covenants. As long as any portion of this Series A Debenture remains outstanding, unless the holders of at least 67% in principal
amount of the then outstanding Debt Securities shall have otherwise given prior written consent, the Company shall not, and shall
not permit any of the Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:


 


a)        other
than Permitted Indebtedness, enter into, create, incur, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money
of any kind, including, but not limited to, a guarantee, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter
acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;


 


b)        other
than Permitted Liens, enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens of any kind, on or with respect to any of
its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;


 


c)        amend
its charter documents, including, without limitation, its certificate of incorporation and bylaws, in any manner that materially
and adversely affects any rights of the Holder;


 


d)        repay,
repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire more than a de minimis number of shares of its Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents other than as to (i) the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares as permitted or required under the
Transaction Documents and (ii) repurchases of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents of departing officers and directors of the
Company, provided that such repurchases shall not exceed an aggregate of $75,000 per year for all officers and directors during
the term of this Series A Debenture;


 



    	20



    	 



    




 


e)        repay,
repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire any Indebtedness, other than the Debt Securities
if on a pro-rata basis, other than regularly scheduled principal and interest payments as such terms are in effect as of the Original
Issue Date or otherwise permitted hereunder, provided that such payments shall not be permitted if, at such time, or after giving
effect to such payment, any Event of Default exist or occur;


 


f)         pay
cash dividends or distributions on any equity securities of the Company;


 


g)        enter
into any transaction with any Affiliate of the Company which would be required to be disclosed in any public filing with the Commission,
unless such transaction is made on an arm’s-length basis and expressly approved by a majority of the disinterested directors
of the Company (even if less than a quorum otherwise required for board approval); or


 


h)        enter
into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.


 


Section 8.          Events of Default.


 


a)         “Event
of Default” means, wherever used herein, any of the following events (whatever the reason for such event and whether
such event shall be voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any
court, or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):


 


i.          any
default in the payment of (A) the principal amount of any Debenture or (B) interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing
to a Holder on any Debenture, as and when the same shall become due and payable (whether on a Conversion Date, an Interest Payment
Date or the Maturity Date or by acceleration or otherwise) which default, solely in the case of an interest payment or other default
under clause (B) above, is not cured within 3 Trading Days;


 


ii.          the
Company shall fail to observe or perform any other covenant or agreement contained in the Debentures (other than a breach by the
Company of its obligations to deliver shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion, which breach is addressed in clause
(xi) below) which failure is not cured, if possible to cure, within the earlier to occur of (A) 5 Trading Days after notice of
such failure sent by the Holder or by any other Holder to the Company and (B) 10 Trading Days after the Company has become or should
have become aware of such failure;


 


iii.          a default
or event of default (subject to any grace or cure period provided in the applicable agreement, document or instrument) shall occur
under (A) any of the Transaction Documents or (B) any other material agreement, lease, document or instrument to which the Company
or any Subsidiary is obligated (and not covered by clause (vi) below) and which have been filed as exhibits to the SEC Reports
on or before the Original Issue Date or are filed as exhibits to the SEC Reports after the Original Issue Date and while this Series
A Debenture remains outstanding;


 



    	21



    	 



    




 


iv.          any
representation or warranty made in this Series A Debenture, any other Transaction Documents, any written statement pursuant hereto
or thereto or any other report, financial statement or certificate made or delivered to the Holder or any other Holder shall be
untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the date when made or deemed made;


 


v.          the Company
or any Significant Subsidiary (as such term is defined in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X) shall be subject to a Bankruptcy Event;


 


vi.          the
Company or any Subsidiary shall default on any of its obligations under any mortgage, credit agreement or other facility, indenture
agreement, factoring agreement or other instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced,

hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration
of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable
law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have
all rights as a holder of this Series A Debenture until such time, if any, as the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this
Section 8(b). No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, liquidated damages and accrued interest, as applicable,
on this Series A Debenture at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. This Series A Debenture

    	24



    	 



    




 


d)         Governing
Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Series A Debenture 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 conflict of laws thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense
of the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective
Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting
in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan (the “New York Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably
submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of 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 such New York Courts, or such New York Courts are improper or 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 Series A Debenture 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 applicable law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Series
A Debenture or the transactions contemplated hereby. If any party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions
of this Series A Debenture, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its
attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or
proceeding.


 


e)         Waiver.
Any waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Series A Debenture shall not operate as or be construed
to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Series A Debenture. The failure
of the Company or the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Series A Debenture on one or more occasions shall
not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other
term of this Series A Debenture on any other occasion. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder must be in writing.


 



    	25



    	 



    




 


f)          Severability.
If any provision of this Series A Debenture is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Series A Debenture shall
remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to
all other Persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates
the applicable law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum
rate of interest permitted under applicable law. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall
not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension
or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest
on this Series A Debenture as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect
the covenants or the performance of this Series A Debenture, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly
waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede
the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such
law has been enacted.


 


g)Remedies,
Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Series A Debenture shall
be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Series A Debenture and any of the other Transaction Documents
at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit
the Holder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of
this Series A Debenture. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument
other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the
like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided
herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach
by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may
be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled,
in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without
the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall provide all information
and documentation to the Holder that is requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance
with the terms and conditions of this Series A Debenture.


 


h)         Next
Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment
shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.


 


i)          Headings.
The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Series A Debenture and shall not be deemed
to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.


 


j)          Secured
Obligation. The obligations of the Company under this Series A Debenture are secured by all assets of the Company pursuant
to the Security Documents.
