&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.3** <u>Priority of Obligation</u>. As an inducement for the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and to purchase the Notes, all obligations of the Company pursuant to this Agreement and the Notes until repaid or otherwise satisfied shall rank at least *pari passu* in right of payment with all other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness (as defined in <u>Section 3.28</u> hereof) of the Company (including all other Notes issued pursuant to this Agreement) and senior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Company that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and to all present and future equity securities of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.4** <u>Pro Rata Payments</u>. The Company and each Purchaser hereby agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Notes, to the extent the Company makes any payment of principal of, interest on, or any other amount under the Notes or this Agreement to the Purchasers (or offers to make any prepayment thereof), all such payments shall be applied to the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes held by all Purchasers on a pro rata basis based on the relative Outstanding Principal Amounts of such Notes at the time of such payment or prepayment. If any Purchaser shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on the Notes resulting in such Purchaser receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amounts then due and payable in respect of the Notes greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Purchaser receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the other Purchasers of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the amounts owing to the other Purchasers under the Notes, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Purchasers ratably in accordance with the Outstanding Principal Amount of and accrued interest on their respective Notes and other amounts owing to them. The Company consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, that any Purchaser acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangement may exercise against the Company rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Purchaser were a direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.5** <u>Defaulting Purchasers</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any Purchaser (a "**Defaulting Purchaser**") fails to fund its pro rata share of any Draw Amount on the applicable Funding Date in accordance with <u>Section 2.2</u>, and such failure continues for two (2) Business Days after written notice thereof from the Company or the Requisite Holder, such Purchaser shall, for so long as such failure remains uncured, have no right to vote or provide consents under this Agreement (except with respect to any amendment that would materially and disproportionately adversely affect such Purchaser) and its Commitment shall be excluded from the determination of any voting thresholds based on the aggregate Commitments or aggregate Outstanding Principal Amounts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The obligations of the non-Defaulting Purchasers to fund their respective Funding Amounts shall not be increased or otherwise affected by the failure of any Defaulting Purchaser to fund its Funding Amount, and no Purchaser shall have any obligation to fund any shortfall resulting from such failure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.** **<u>REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY</u>**. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedules or (notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein including references to the Disclosure Schedules) filings made by the Company with the SEC which Disclosure Schedules and filings with the SEC shall be deemed a part hereof and shall qualify any representation or otherwise made herein to the extent of the disclosure contained in the corresponding section of the Disclosure Schedules, the Company represents and warrants to each Purchaser and covenants with each Purchaser that the following representations and warranties are true and correct as of the date hereof and as of each Closing Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.1** <u>Organization and Qualification</u>. The Company is a company duly incorporated and validly existing in good standing under the Laws of Delaware and has the requisite corporate power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted. The Company is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the ownership of its property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.2** <u>Authorization; Enforcement; Compliance with Other Instruments</u>. The Company and each Subsidiary has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute the Transaction Documents and to issue the Notes and enter into the obligations evidenced thereby pursuant hereto, and to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company and each Subsidiary and the issuance of the Notes by the Company pursuant hereto have been duly and validly authorized by the Company's Board of Directors, or member(s), as applicable and no further consent or authorization is required by the Company, the Company's Board of Directors, its shareholders or members or any other Person in connection therewith, assuming the accuracy of each Purchaser's representations in <u>Section 4</u>, and except such as have been waived and other than such filings as are required to be made under applicable Laws. The Transaction Documents have been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company to which they are a party and constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar Laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors' rights and remedies and no default or Event of Default would result therefrom.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.3** <u>No Conflicts</u>. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and each Subsidiary and the issuance of the Notes hereunder will not (a) conflict with or result in a violation of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws, (b) conflict with, or constitute a material default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a material default) under, or give to others any right of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the creation of any lien upon any material asset of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries pursuant to, any material agreement to which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is a party, or (c) violate in any material respect any Law or any rule or regulation of the Trading Market applicable to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or by which any of their properties or assets are bound or affected. Assuming the accuracy of each Purchaser's representations in <u>Section 4</u> and subject to the making of the filings referred to in <u>Section 6</u>, (i) no approval or authorization will be required from any governmental authority or agency, regulatory or self-regulatory agency or other third party (including the Trading Market) in connection with the issuance of the Notes and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) the issuance of the Notes is exempt from the registration and qualification requirements under the 1933 Act and all applicable state securities Laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.4** <u>Capitalization and Subsidiaries</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws on file with the SEC are true and correct copies of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws as in effect as of the date hereof. The Company is not in violation of any provision of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws nor is any Subsidiary in violation of its organization documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Schedule 3.4(b)</u> lists each direct and indirect subsidiary of the Company (each, a "**Subsidiary**" and collectively, the "**Subsidiaries**") and indicates for each Subsidiary (i) the authorized capital stock or other Equity Interest of such Subsidiary as of the date hereof, (ii) the number and kind of shares or other ownership interests of such Subsidiary that are issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, and (iii) the owner of such shares or other ownership interests as of the date hereof. Each Subsidiary is duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation, except to the extent that the failure to be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and has all requisite power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.5** <u>SEC Documents; Financial Statements</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) As of the date hereof and each Closing Date, the Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act since December 31, 2024 (all of the foregoing filed prior to the date hereof, as they have been amended since the time of their filing, and all exhibits included therein and documents incorporated by reference therein being hereinafter referred to as the "**SEC Documents**").

After giving effect to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the Company's book value of its assets exceeds the Company's book value of existing debts and other liabilities (without regard to any potential contingent liabilities) as they mature; and (b) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets at book value, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt at book value when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**11.11** <u>Successors and Assigns</u>. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the Company and the Purchasers and their respective successors and assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Requisite Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**11.14** <u>Specific Performance</u>. Each of the Company and each Purchaser acknowledges that monetary damages alone would not be adequate compensation to the other parties hereto for a breach of this Agreement and the Company or the Requisite Holder may seek an injunction or an order for specific performance from a court of competent jurisdiction if (a) the Company or a Purchaser fails to comply or threatens not to comply with this Agreement or (b) on the one hand, the Company has reason to believe that a Purchaser will not comply with this Agreement or, on the other hand, the Requisite Holder have reason to believe that the Company will not comply with this Agreement.

Accordingly, each Purchaser agrees that it shall not, without the prior written consent of the Requisite Holder, take any individual action to enforce its rights under this Agreement or any Note in a manner that would result in such Purchaser receiving payment or recovery in excess of its pro rata share as provided in <u>Section 2.4</u>. Any recovery obtained by a Purchaser in violation of this <u>Section 11.15</u> shall be subject to the payment-sharing provisions of <u>Section 2.4</u>. Nothing in this <u>Section 11.15</u> shall prevent any Purchaser from exercising rights that are personal to such Purchaser and not related to enforcement or recovery, including the right to transfer its Note or to receive notices hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this <u>Section 11.15</u> is intended to, or shall, constitute the Purchasers as a 'group' for purposes of Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act with respect to any equity securities of the Company.

**FOR VALUE RECEIVED**, **LQR House Inc.**, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the "<u>Maker</u>" or the "<u>Company</u>"), hereby promises to pay to the order of **[●]** or its registered assigns (the "<u>Holder</u>") the principal sum of up to **[●]** United States Dollars ($**[●]**.00) the "<u>Principal Amount</u>") and to pay interest on any outstanding principal amount at the rate of six percent (6.0%) per annum, pursuant to the terms of this Promissory Note (this "<u>Note</u>"). The Principal Amount constitutes the aggregate principal amount of this Note, and the disbursement thereof, shall be made in such amounts and at such times as provided in, and pursuant to the terms and conditions of, the Purchase Agreement.

The maturity date of this Note shall be May 20, 2028 (the "<u>Maturity Date</u>") and is the date upon which the Principal Amount shall be due and payable unless otherwise accelerated pursuant to the terms of this Note.

All payments under this Note shall be made (i) in United States Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Holder from time to time in writing to the Maker or (ii) in Qualified Digital Assets transferred to the wallet designated by the Holder from time to time in writing to the Maker. Any payment made in Qualified Digital Assets shall be valued in accordance with the methodology set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement. The Company shall maintain a record of all advances made under this Note and all repayments of principal and interest, which may be set forth in Schedule A attached hereto (as updated from time to time) or maintained in electronic form. Such record, including any updated Schedule A, shall, absent manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note. The Holder may also maintain its own records of advances and repayments for reconciliation purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1 <u>Purchase Agreement</u>. This Note has been executed and delivered pursuant to, and is one of the Notes issued pursuant to, the Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 20, 2026 (as the same may be amended from time to time, the "<u>Purchase Agreement</u>"), by and among the Maker, the other "Purchasers" (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) and the Holder. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth for such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2 <u>Payment of Interest</u>. Interest on the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note shall accrue at a rate of six percent (6%) per annum commencing on the Issuance Date and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed and shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date. From and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined herein), the interest rate on this Note shall be subject to the provisions of Section 1.3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.3 <u>Default Interest</u>. If any amount payable by the Company under any Transaction Document is not paid when due, such unpaid amount shall thereafter bear interest at the Past Due Rate (as defined herein) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law until such amount is paid in full. In addition, following any Event of Default, any Outstanding Principal Amount shall bear interest at the Past Due Rate until such Event of Default is cured or waived in writing. Interest accruing at the Past Due Rate shall be payable on demand and on each Interest Payment Date, in each case to the extent then unpaid. The "<u>Past Due Rate</u>" means a rate per annum equal to twelve percent (12%), accruing on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed; provided that in no event shall the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.4 <u>Payment on Non-Business Days</u>. Whenever any payment to be made shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.5 <u>Prepayment</u>. The Maker may, at any time, prepay all or any portion by paying to the Holder an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Outstanding Principal Amount being prepaid, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amounts then owing under this Note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.6 <u>Transfer</u>. This Note may be transferred or sold, subject to the provisions of <u>Section 4.8</u> of this Note, or pledged, hypothecated or otherwise granted as security by the Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.7 <u>Replacement</u>. Upon receipt of a duly executed and notarized written statement from the Holder with respect to the loss, theft or destruction of this Note (or any replacement hereof), or, in the case of a mutilation of this Note, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Maker shall issue a new Note, of like tenor and amount, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.8 <u>Use of Proceeds</u>. The Maker shall use the proceeds of this Note as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.9 <u>Status of Note</u>. The obligations of the Maker under this Note are direct, unconditional and unsecured obligations of the Maker and shall rank at least *pari passu* in right of payment with all other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Maker (including all other Notes issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement) and senior in right of payment to all Indebtedness of the Maker that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to this Note and to all present and future equity securities of the Maker. Upon any Liquidation Event (as defined below), the Holder shall be entitled to receive payment in respect of this Note, in priority to any distribution or payment made in respect of any such subordinated Indebtedness or equity securities, in an amount equal to the Outstanding Principal Amount, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts then due and payable under this Note, in each case in accordance with the Note Purchase Agreement. For purposes of this Note, "<u>Liquidation Event</u>" means a liquidation pursuant to a filing of a petition for bankruptcy under applicable Law or any other insolvency or debtor's relief proceeding, an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Maker.

The Maker shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain in full force and effect its corporate existence, rights and franchises and all licenses and other rights to use property owned or possessed by it and reasonably deemed to be necessary to the conduct of its business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.3 <u>Usury</u>.

**ARTICLE 4**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1 <u>Notices</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.3 <u>Headings</u>. Article and section headings in this Note are included herein for purposes of convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Note for any other purpose.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.4 <u>Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief</u>. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note, at law or in equity (including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy and nothing herein shall limit the Holder's right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Maker to comply with the terms of this Note. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the holder thereof and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Maker (or the performance thereof). The Maker acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable and material harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach would be inadequate. Therefore, the Maker agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available rights and remedies, at law or in equity, to equitable relief, including but not limited to an injunction restraining any such breach or threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

The obligations of the Maker and the Holder set forth herein shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each such party, whether or not such successors or assigns are permitted by the terms herein. The Holder shall have the right to assign this Note hereunder without notice to or the consent of the Maker.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.7 <u>Amendments; Waivers</u>. No provision of this Note may be waived or amended except in a written instrument signed by the Maker and the Requisite Holder (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) provided, however, that no such amendment or waiver that (i) reduces the principal amount or interest rate payable under this Note, (ii) extends the Maturity Date or any date fixed for any payment of principal or interest hereunder, or (iii) releases the Maker from its payment obligations under this Note (other than as a result of payment in full) shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Holder. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Note shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of the Maker or the Holder to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.8 <u>Compliance with Securities Laws</u>. The Holder of this Note acknowledges that this Note is being acquired solely for the Holder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Holder shall not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Note in violation of securities laws.
