FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Shineco,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), promises to pay to Streeterville
Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company, or its successors or assigns (“Lender”), $4,200,000.00 and any
interest, fees, charges, and late fees accrued hereunder on the date that is twelve (12) months after the Purchase Price Date (the “Maturity
Date”) in accordance with the terms set forth herein and to pay interest on the Outstanding Balance at the rate of six percent
(6%) per annum from the Purchase Price Date until the same is paid in full. All interest calculations hereunder shall be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months, shall compound daily and shall be payable in accordance with
the terms of this Note. This Convertible Promissory Note #2 (this “Note”) is issued and made effective as of July 16,
2021 (the “Effective Date”). This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated July
16, 2021, as the same may be amended from time to time, by and between Borrower and Lender (the “Purchase Agreement”).
Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Attachment 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

 

This Note carries an OID of $200,000.00.
The purchase price for this Note shall be $4,000,000.00 (the “Purchase Price”), computed as follows: $4,200,000.00
original principal balance, less the OID. The Purchase Price shall be payable by Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

 

1.
Payment; Prepayment.

 

1.1.
Payment. All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America or Redemption Conversion Shares
(as defined below), as provided for herein, and delivered to Lender at the address or bank account furnished to Borrower for that purpose.
All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and
unpaid interest, and thereafter, to (d) principal.

 

1.2.
Prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or any portion of the Outstanding Balance
(less such portion of the Outstanding Balance for which Borrower has received a Redemption Notice (as defined below) from Lender where
the applicable Redemption Conversion Shares have not yet been delivered). If Borrower exercises its right to prepay this Note, Borrower
shall make payment to Lender of an amount in cash equal to 120% multiplied by the portion of the Outstanding Balance Borrower elects
to prepay.

 

2.
Security. This Note is unsecured.

 

3.
Redemption.

 

3.1.
Redemption Conversion Price. Subject to the adjustments set forth herein, the conversion price for each Redemption Conversion
(as defined below) shall be calculated pursuant to the following formula: 80% multiplied by the lowest daily VWAP during the fifteen
(15) Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable Redemption Conversion (the “Redemption Conversion Price”).

 

    	 

     

    

 

3.2.
Redemptions. Beginning on  the Purchase Price Date, Lender shall have the right, exercisable
at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, to redeem any amount of the Note (such amount, the “Redemption Amount”)
at any time by providing Borrower with a notice substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Redemption
Notice”, and each date on which Lender delivers a Redemption Notice, a “Redemption Date”). For the avoidance
of doubt, Lender may submit to Borrower one (1) or more Redemption Notices in any given calendar month. Payments of each Redemption Amount
may be made (a) in cash, or (b) by converting such Redemption Amount into shares of Common Stock (the “Redemption Conversion
Shares”) in accordance with this Section 3.2 (each, a “Redemption Conversion”) per the following formula:
the number of Redemption Conversion Shares equals the portion of the applicable Redemption Amount being converted divided by the Redemption
Conversion Price, or (c) by any combination of the foregoing, so long as the cash is delivered to Lender on the third (3rd)
Trading Day immediately following the applicable Redemption Date and the Redemption Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender on or before
the applicable Delivery Date (as defined below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower will not be entitled to elect a Redemption Conversion
with respect to any portion of any applicable Redemption Amount and shall be required to pay the entire amount of such Redemption Amount
in cash, if on the applicable Redemption Date there is an Equity Conditions Failure, and such failure is not waived in writing by Lender.
Notwithstanding that failure to repay this Note in full by the Maturity Date is an Event of Default, the Redemption Dates shall continue
after the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 3.2 until the Outstanding Balance is repaid in full.

 

3.3.
Allocation of Redemption Amounts. Following its receipt of a Redemption Notice, Borrower may either ratify Lender’s proposed
allocation in the applicable Redemption Notice or elect to change the allocation by written notice to Lender by email or fax within twenty-four
(24) hours of its receipt of such Redemption Notice, so long as the sum of the cash payments and the amount of Redemption Conversions
equal the applicable Redemption Amount. If Borrower fails to notify Lender of its election to change the allocation prior to the deadline
set forth in the previous sentence, it shall be deemed to have ratified and accepted the allocation set forth in the applicable Redemption
Notice prepared by Lender. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the amounts and calculations set forth thereon are subject to correction
or adjustment because of error, mistake, or any adjustment resulting from an Event of Default or other adjustment permitted under the
Transaction Documents (an “Adjustment”). Furthermore, no error or mistake in the preparation of such notices, or failure
to apply any Adjustment that could have been applied prior to the preparation of a Redemption Notice may be deemed a waiver of Lender’s
right to enforce the terms of any Note, even if such error, mistake, or failure to include an Adjustment arises from Lender’s own
calculation. Borrower shall deliver the Redemption Conversion Shares from any Redemption Conversion to Lender in accordance with Section
8 below on or before each applicable Delivery Date. If Borrower elects to pay a Redemption Amount in cash, such payment must be delivered
no later than the second Trading Day immediately following the Redemption Date. If Borrower elects to make a payment in cash and fails
to make such payment by the required due date on two (2) separate occasions, Borrower shall lose the right to make payments of Redemption
Amounts in cash in the future without Lender’s written consent.

4.
Defaults and Remedies.

 

4.1.
Defaults. The following are events of default under this Note (each, an “Event of Default”): (a) Borrower fails
to pay any principal, interest, fees, charges, or any other amount when due and payable hereunder; (b) Borrower fails to deliver any
Redemption Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and such failure to deliver is not cured within two (2) Trading Days
of the applicable Delivery Date; (c) a receiver, trustee or other similar official shall be appointed over Borrower or a material part
of its assets and such appointment shall remain uncontested for twenty (20) days or shall not be dismissed or discharged within sixty
(60) days; (d) Borrower becomes insolvent or generally fails to pay, or admits in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they become
due, subject to applicable grace periods, if any; (e) Borrower makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (f) Borrower
files a petition for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); (g) an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding
is commenced or filed against Borrower that shall not be dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days; (h) Borrower or any pledgor,
trustor, or guarantor of this Note defaults or otherwise fails to observe or perform any covenant, obligation, condition or agreement
of Borrower or such pledgor, trustor, or guarantor contained herein or in any other Transaction Document (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement), other than those specifically set forth in this Section 4.1 and Section 4 of the Purchase Agreement; (i) any representation,
warranty or other statement made or furnished by or on behalf of Borrower or any pledgor, trustor, or guarantor of this Note to Lender
herein, in any Transaction Document, or otherwise in connection with the issuance of this Note is false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading
in any material respect when made or furnished; (j) the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction without Lender’s prior written
consent; (k) Borrower fails to maintain the Share Reserve (as defined in the Purchase Agreement); (l) Borrower effectuates a reverse
split of its Common Stock without providing twenty (20) Trading Days prior written notice to Lender; (m) any money judgment, writ or
similar process is entered or filed against Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower or any of its property or other assets for more than
$1,000,000.00 (in excess of any coverage limits of any applicable insurance or designated reserves of Borrower), and shall remain unvacated,
unbonded or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) calendar days unless otherwise consented to by Lender; (n) Borrower fails to be DWAC
Eligible; (o) Borrower fails to observe or perform any covenant set forth in Section 4 of the Purchase Agreement; or (p) Borrower, any
affiliate of Borrower, or any pledgor, trustor, or guarantor of this Note breaches any covenant or other term or condition contained
in any Other Agreements.

 

4.2.
Remedies. At any time and from time to time after Lender becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may accelerate
this Note by written notice to Borrower, with the Outstanding Balance becoming immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default
Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, elect
to increase the Outstanding Balance by applying the Default Effect (subject to the limitation set forth below) via written notice to
Borrower without accelerating the Outstanding Balance, in which event the Outstanding Balance shall be increased as of the date of the
occurrence of the applicable Event of Default pursuant to the Default Effect, but the Outstanding Balance shall not be immediately due
and payable unless so declared by Lender (for the avoidance of doubt, if Lender elects to apply the Default Effect pursuant to this sentence,
it shall reserve the right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable at any time and no such election by Lender
shall be deemed to be a waiver of its right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable as set forth herein unless
otherwise agreed to by Lender in writing). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clauses
(c), (d), (e), (f) or (g) of Section 4.1, the Outstanding Balance as of the date of acceleration shall become immediately and automatically
due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount, without any written notice required by Lender. At any time following the occurrence
of any Event of Default, upon written notice given by Lender to Borrower, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning
on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred at an interest rate equal to the lesser of twenty-two percent (22%) per annum or
the maximum rate permitted under applicable law (“Default Interest”). For the avoidance of doubt, Lender may continue
making Redemption Conversions (as defined below) at any time following an Event of Default until such time as the Outstanding Balance
is paid in full. In connection with acceleration described herein, Lender need not provide, and Borrower hereby waives, any presentment,
demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and Lender 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 Lender at any time prior to payment hereunder and Lender shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time,
if any, as Lender receives full payment pursuant to this Section 4.2. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event
of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit Lender’s right to pursue any other remedies available
to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to Borrower’s
failure to timely deliver Redemption Conversion Shares upon Redemption Conversion of the Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

    	3

     

    

 

5.
Unconditional Obligation; No Offset. Borrower acknowledges that this Note is an unconditional, valid, binding and enforceable
obligation of Borrower not subject to offset, deduction or counterclaim of any kind. Borrower hereby waives any rights of offset it now
has or may have hereafter against Lender, its successors and assigns, and agrees to make the payments or Redemption Conversions called
for herein in accordance with the terms of this Note.

 

6.
Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting
the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent
to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit
a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.

 

7.
Adjustment of Redemption Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. Without limiting any provision hereof,
if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise)
one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Redemption Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time
on or after the Effective Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Redemption Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will
be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of
such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 7 occurs during the period that a Redemption
Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Redemption Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to
reflect such event.

 

8.
Method of Redemption Conversion Share Delivery. On or before the close of business on the third (3rd) Trading Day following each
Redemption Date (the “Delivery Date”), Borrower shall, provided it is DWAC Eligible at such time and such Redemption
Conversion Shares are eligible for delivery via DWAC, deliver or cause its transfer agent to deliver the applicable Redemption Conversion
Shares electronically via DWAC to the account designated by Lender in the applicable Redemption Notice. If Borrower is not DWAC Eligible
or such Redemption Conversion Shares are not eligible for delivery via DWAC, it shall deliver to Lender or its broker (as designated
in the Redemption Notice), via reputable overnight courier, a certificate representing the number of shares of Common Stock equal to
the number of Redemption Conversion Shares to which Lender shall be entitled, registered in the name of Lender or its designee. For the
avoidance of doubt, Borrower has not met its obligation to deliver Redemption Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date unless Lender or
its broker, as applicable, has actually received the certificate representing the applicable Redemption Conversion Shares no later than
the close of business on the relevant Delivery Date pursuant to the terms set forth above. Moreover, and notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, in the event Borrower or its transfer agent refuses to deliver any Redemption
Conversion Shares without a restrictive securities legend to Lender on grounds that such issuance is in violation of Rule 144 under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”), Borrower shall deliver or cause its transfer agent to deliver the
applicable Redemption Conversion Shares to Lender with a restricted securities legend, but otherwise in accordance with the provisions
of this Section 8. In conjunction therewith, Borrower will also deliver to Lender a written explanation from its counsel or its transfer
agent’s counsel opining as to why the issuance of the applicable Redemption Conversion Shares violates Rule 144. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, on up to three (3) occasions, Borrower shall have seven (7) Trading Days from the applicable Redemption Date to deliver
Redemption Conversion Shares and such delivery shall not be considered to be late hereunder.

 

    	4

     

    

 

9.
Redemption Conversion Delays. If Borrower fails to deliver Redemption Conversion Shares in accordance with the timeframe stated
in Section 8, Lender may at any time prior to receiving the applicable Redemption Conversion Shares rescind in whole or in part such
Redemption Conversion, with a corresponding increase to the Outstanding Balance (any returned amount will tack back to the Purchase Price
Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144). In addition, for each Redemption Conversion, in the event that Redemption
Conversion Shares are not delivered by the third (3rd) Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Redemption Conversion), a late fee equal
to 2% of the applicable Redemption Conversion Share Value rounded to the nearest multiple of $100.00 but with a floor of $500.00 per
day (but in any event the cumulative amount of such late fees for each Redemption Conversion shall not exceed 200% of the applicable
Redemption Conversion Share Value) will be assessed for each day after the third (3rd) Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Redemption
Conversion) until Redemption Conversion Share delivery is made; and such late fee will be added to the Outstanding Balance (such fees,
the “Redemption Conversion Delay Late Fees”).

 

10.
Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Transaction Documents, Borrower
shall not effect any conversion of this Note to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion would cause Lender (together with
its affiliates) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date
(including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such issuance) (the “Maximum Percentage”). For
purposes of this section, beneficial ownership of Common Stock will be determined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. Notwithstanding
the forgoing, the term “4.99%” above shall be replaced with “9.99%” at such time as the Market Capitalization
is less than $10,000,000.00. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, if the term “4.99%” is replaced with “9.99%”
pursuant to the preceding sentence, such increase to “9.99%” shall remain at 9.99% until increased, decreased or waived by
Lender as set forth below. By written notice to Borrower, Lender may increase, decrease or waive the Maximum Percentage as to itself
but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery thereof. The foregoing 61-day notice requirement is enforceable,
unconditional and non-waivable and shall apply to all affiliates and assigns of Lender.

 

11. Restrictions on Sales of Shares.

 

11.1. Volume
Limitation. Lender agrees that, with respect to the Redemption Conversion Shares, in any given calendar week its Net Sales (as defined
below) of such Redemption Conversion Shares shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of Borrower’s weekly dollar trading volume in such
week (which, for purposes hereof, means the number of shares of Borrower’s Common Stock traded during such calendar week multiplied
by the volume weighted average price per share for such week) (the “Volume Limitation”). For purposes of this Agreement,
the term “Net Sales” means the gross proceeds from private and public sales of the Redemption Conversion Shares sold
in a calendar week minus any trading commissions or costs associated with clearing and selling such Redemption Conversion Shares, minus
legal fees Lender incurs to obtain any legal opinions required to sell such Redemption Conversion Shares, minus the purchase price paid
for any shares of Common Stock purchased on the open market during such week.

 

11.2. Breach
of Volume Limitation. Borrower and Lender agree that in the event Lender breaches the Volume Limitation where its Net Sales of Redemption
Conversion Shares during any week exceed the dollar volume it is permitted to sell during such week pursuant to the Volume Limitation,
then in such event, as Borrower’s sole and exclusive remedy for such breach (and which breach may not be used as a defense to Borrower’s
performance of its obligations hereunder), Borrower shall have the right to reduce the Outstanding Balance of this Note (or receive a
payment in cash if this Note has been paid in full) by delivering written notice of such demand (together with documentary evidence of
such breach) to Lender. By way of example only, if the Net Sales of a portion of the Shares were $275,000.00 for a given week where the
Volume Limitation was $250,000.00, then Lender would be required to reduce the Outstanding Balance by $25,000.00 ($275,000.00 - $250,000.00)
upon its receipt of demand for such payment from Borrower. Borrower must prove any breach of the Volume Limitation by clear and convincing
evidence.

 

    	5

     

    

 

12.
Opinion of Counsel. In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, Lender has the right
to have any such opinion provided by its counsel.

 

13.
Governing Law; Venue. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction,
validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Utah, without giving effect
to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Utah or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the
application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Utah. The provisions set forth in the Purchase Agreement to determine
the proper venue for any disputes are incorporated herein by this reference.

 

14.
Arbitration of Disputes. By its issuance or acceptance of this Note, each party agrees to be bound by the Arbitration Provisions
(as defined in the Purchase Agreement) set forth as an exhibit to the Purchase Agreement.

 

15.
Cancellation. After repayment or conversion of the entire Outstanding Balance, this Note shall be deemed paid in full, shall automatically
be deemed canceled, and shall not be reissued.

 

16.
Amendments. The prior written consent of both parties hereto shall be required for any change or amendment to this Note.

 

17.
Assignments. Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Lender. This Note and any shares of Common
Stock issued upon conversion of this Note may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by Lender without the consent of Borrower.

 

18.
Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given
in accordance with the subsection of the Purchase Agreement titled “Notices.”

 

19.
Liquidated Damages. Lender and Borrower agree that in the event Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms or provisions of
this Note, Lender’s damages would be uncertain and difficult (if not impossible) to accurately estimate because of the parties’
inability to predict future interest rates, future share prices, future trading volumes and other relevant factors. Accordingly, Lender
and Borrower agree that any fees, balance adjustments, Default Interest or other charges assessed under this Note are not penalties but
instead are intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, liquidated damages (under Lender’s and Borrower’s expectations
that any such liquidated damages will tack back to the Purchase Price Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule
144).

 

20.
Severability. If any part of this Note is construed to be in violation of any law, such part shall be modified to achieve the
objective of Borrower and Lender to the fullest extent permitted by law and the balance of this Note shall remain in full force and effect.

Securities
Purchase Agreement

 

THIS
SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of June 16, 2021, is entered into by and between SHINECO,
INC., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), and STREETERVILLE CAPITAL, LLC, a Utah limited liability company, its successors
and/or assigns (“Investor”).

 

A.
Company and Investor are executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon an exemption from securities registration afforded
by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

B.
Investor desires to purchase and Company desires to issue and sell, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement a Convertible
Promissory Note, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, in the original principal amount of $3,170,000.00 (the “Note”),
convertible into shares of common stock,

$0.001
par value per share, of Company (the “Common Stock”), upon the terms and subject to the limitations and conditions
set forth in such Note.

 

C.
This Agreement, the Note, and all other certificates, documents, agreements, resolutions and instruments delivered to any party under
or in connection with this Agreement, as the same may be amended from time to time, are collectively referred to herein as the “Transaction
Documents”.

 

D.
For purposes of this Agreement: “Redemption Conversion Shares” means all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of all or any portion of the Note; and “Securities” means the Note and the Redemption Conversion Shares.

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, Company and Investor hereby agree as follows:

 

1.
Purchase and Sale of Securities.

 

1.1.
Purchase of Securities. Company shall issue and sell to Investor and Investor shall purchase from Company the Note. In consideration
thereof, Investor shall pay the Purchase Price (as defined below) to Company.

 

1.2.
Form of Payment. On the Closing Date (as defined below), Investor shall pay the Purchase Price to Company via wire transfer of
immediately available funds against delivery of the Note.

 

1.3.
Closing Date. Subject to the satisfaction (or written waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 below, the
date of the issuance and sale of the Note pursuant to this Agreement (the “Closing Date”) shall be June 16, 2021,
or another mutually agreed upon date. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”)
shall occur on the Closing Date by means of the exchange by email of signed .pdf documents, but shall be deemed for all purposes to have
occurred at the offices of Hansen Black Anderson Ashcraft PLLC in Lehi, Utah.

 

1.4.
Collateral for the Note. The Note shall be unsecured.

1.5.
Original Issue Discount; Transaction Expense Amount. The Note carries an original issue discount of $150,000.00 (the “OID”).
In addition, Company agrees to pay $20,000.00 to Investor to cover Investor’s legal fees, accounting costs, due diligence, monitoring
and other transaction costs incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities (the “Transaction Expense Amount”),
all of which amount is included in the initial principal balance of the Note. The “Purchase Price”, therefore, shall
be $3,000,000.00, computed as follows: $3,170,000.00 initial principal balance, less the OID, less the Transaction Expense Amount.

4.
Company Covenants. Until all of Company’s obligations under all of the Transaction Documents are paid and performed in full,
or within the timeframes otherwise specifically set forth below, Company will at all times comply with the following covenants: (i) so
long as Investor beneficially owns any of the Securities and for at least twenty (20) Trading Days (as defined in the Note) thereafter,
Company will timely file on or before the applicable deadline all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13 or
15(d) of the 1934 Act, and will take all reasonable action under its control to ensure that adequate current public information with
respect to Company, as required in accordance with Rule 144 of the 1933 Act, is publicly available, and will not terminate its status
as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such
termination; (ii) when issued, the Redemption Conversion Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid for and non-assessable,
free and clear of all liens, claims, charges and encumbrances; (iii) the Common Stock shall be listed or quoted for trading on NYSE or
Nasdaq; (iv) trading in Company’s Common Stock will not be suspended, halted, chilled, frozen, reach zero bid or otherwise cease
trading on Company’s principal trading market; (v) Company agrees it will not make any Restricted Issuances (as defined below)
without Investor’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Investor’s sole and absolute discretion;
(vi) while Company may raise any capital it deems necessary for its operations, Company shall not enter into any agreement or otherwise
agree to any covenant, condition, or obligation that locks up, restricts in any way or otherwise prohibits Company: (a) from entering
into a variable rate transaction to Investor or any affiliate of Investor, or (b) issuing Common Stock, preferred stock, warrants, convertible
notes, other debt securities, or any other Company securities to Investor or any affiliate of Investor, for more than ninety (90) total
calendar days during the next five (5) years following the Closing; and (vii) Company hereby grants to Investor a participation right,
whereby Investor shall have the right to participate in Investor’s discretion in up to fifty percent (50%) of the amount raised
in any equity or debt issuances of Company for so long as the Note remains outstanding. In furtherance thereof, should Company seek to
raise capital via a debt or equity financing transaction, it shall provide Investor not less than fifteen (15) calendar days prior written
notice of such proposed transaction, along with copies of the proposed transaction documents. Investor shall then have up to ten (10)
calendar days to elect to purchase up to 50% of the debt or equity securities proposed to be issued in such transaction on the most favorable
terms and conditions offered to any other purchaser of the same securities. For the avoidance of doubt, the covenant set forth in the
preceding section (vi) shall survive the repayment of the Note. For purposes hereof, the term “Restricted Issuance”
means any issuance of any Company securities that (A) have or may have conversion rights of any kind, contingent, conditional or otherwise,
in which the number of shares that may be issued pursuant to such conversion right varies with the market price of the Common Stock,
or (B) are or may become convertible into Common Stock (including without limitation convertible debt, warrants or convertible preferred
stock), with a conversion price that varies with the market price of the Common Stock, even if such security only becomes convertible
following an event of default, the passage of time, or another trigger event or condition. For avoidance of doubt, the issuance of shares
of Common Stock under, pursuant to, in exchange for or in connection with any contract or instrument, whether convertible or not, is
deemed a Restricted Issuance for purposes hereof if the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued is based upon or related in any
way to the market price of the Common Stock, including, but not limited to, Common Stock issued in connection with a Section 3(a)(9)
exchange, a Section 3(a)(10) settlement, or any other similar settlement or exchange. The parties agree that in the event Company breaches
the covenant set forth in Section 4(vii) above, Investor’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be to receive, as liquidated damages,
an amount equal to twenty (20%) of the amount Investor would have been entitled to invest under the participation right.

 

5.
Conditions to Company’s Obligation to Sell. The obligation of Company hereunder to issue and sell the Securities to Investor
at the Closing is subject to the satisfaction, on or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions:

 

5.1.
Investor shall have executed this Agreement and delivered the same to Company.

 

5.2.
Investor shall have delivered the Purchase Price to Company in accordance with Section 1.2 above.

 

6.
Conditions to Investor’s Obligation to Purchase. The obligation of Investor hereunder to purchase the Securities at the
Closing is subject to the satisfaction, on or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions, provided that these conditions
are for Investor’s sole benefit and may be waived by Investor at any time in its sole discretion:

 

6.1.
Company shall have executed this Agreement and the Note and delivered the same to Investor.

 

6.2.
Company shall have delivered to Investor a fully executed Irrevocable Letter of Instructions to Transfer Agent (the “TA Letter”)
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B acknowledged and agreed to in writing by Company’s transfer agent
(the “Transfer Agent”).

6.3.
Company shall have delivered to Investor a fully executed Secretary’s Certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit C evidencing Company’s approval of the Transaction Documents.

 

6.4.
Company shall have delivered to Investor a fully executed Share Issuance Resolution substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit

6.5.
Company shall have delivered to Investor fully executed copies of all other Transaction Documents required to be executed by Company
herein or therein.

 

7.
Reservation of Shares. On the date hereof, Company will reserve 1,650,000 shares of Common Stock from its authorized and unissued
Common Stock to provide for all issuances of Common Stock under the Note (the “Share Reserve”). Company further agrees
to add additional shares of Common Stock to the Share Reserve in increments of 100,000 shares as and when requested by Investor if as
of the date of any such request the number of shares being held in the Share Reserve is less than three (3) times the number of shares
of Common Stock obtained by dividing the Outstanding Balance (as defined in the Note) as of the date of the request by the Redemption
Conversion Price (as defined in the Note). Company shall further require the Transfer Agent to hold the shares of Common Stock reserved
pursuant to the Share Reserve exclusively for the benefit of Investor and to issue such shares to Investor promptly upon Investor’s
delivery of a Redemption Notice under the Note. Finally, Company shall require the Transfer Agent to issue shares of Common Stock pursuant
to the Note to Investor out of its authorized and unissued shares, and not the Share Reserve, to the extent shares of Common Stock have
been authorized, but not issued, and are not included in the Share Reserve. The Transfer Agent shall only issue shares out of the Share
Reserve to the extent there are no other authorized shares available for issuance and then only with Investor’s written consent.

 

8.
Terms of Future Financings. So long as the Note is outstanding, upon any issuance by Company of any security with any term or
condition more favorable to the holder of such security or with a term in favor of the holder of such security that was not similarly
provided to Investor in the Transaction Documents, then Company shall notify Investor of such additional or more favorable term and such
term, at Investor’s option, shall become a part of the Transaction Documents for the benefit of Investor. Additionally, if Company
fails to notify Investor of any such additional or more favorable term, but Investor becomes aware that Company has granted such a term
to any third party, Investor may notify Company of such additional or more favorable term and such term shall become a part of the Transaction
Documents retroactive to the date on which such term was granted to the applicable third party. The types of terms contained in another
security that may be more favorable to the holder of such security include, but are not limited to, terms addressing conversion discounts,
conversion lookback periods, interest rates, original issue discounts, stock sale price, conversion price per share, warrant coverage,
warrant exercise price, and anti- dilution/conversion and exercise price resets.

 

9.
OFAC; Patriot Act.

 

9.1.

Executive Order or the United States Treasury Department, through its Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or
otherwise, as a terrorist, “Specially Designated Nation”, “Blocked Person”, or other banned or blocked person,
entity, nation, or transaction pursuant to any law, order, rule or regulation that is enforced or administered by OFAC or another department
of the United States government, and (ii) Company is not engaged in this transaction on behalf of, or instigating or facilitating this
transaction on behalf of, any such person, group, entity or nation.

or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee.

 

9.3.
Patriot Act. Company shall not (i) be or become subject at any time to any law, regulation, or list of any government agency (including,
without limitation, the OFAC) that prohibits or limits Investor from making any advance or extension of credit to Company or from otherwise
conducting business with Company, or (ii) fail to provide documentary and other evidence of Company’s identity as may be requested
by Investor at any time to enable Investor to verify Company’s identity or to comply with any applicable law or regulation, including,
without limitation, Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318. Company shall comply with all requirements of
law relating to money laundering, anti-terrorism, trade embargos and economic sanctions, now or hereafter in effect. Upon Investor’s
request from time to time, Company shall certify in writing to Investor that Company’s representations, warranties and obligations
under this Section 9.3 remain true and correct and have not been breached. Company shall immediately notify Investor in writing if any
of such representations, warranties or covenants are no longer true or have been breached or if Company has a reasonable basis to believe
that they may no longer be true or have been breached. In connection with such an event, Company shall comply with all requirements of
law and directives of governmental authorities and, at Investor’s request, provide to Investor copies of all notices, reports and
other communications exchanged with, or received from, governmental authorities relating to such an event. Company shall also reimburse
Investor any expense incurred by Investor in evaluating the effect of such an event on the loan secured hereby, in obtaining any necessary
license from governmental authorities as may be necessary for Investor to enforce its rights under the Transaction Documents, and in
complying with all requirements of law applicable to Investor as the result of the existence of such an event and for any penalties or
fines imposed upon Investor as a result thereof.

 

10.
Miscellaneous. The provisions set forth in this Section 10 shall apply to this Agreement, as well as all other Transaction Documents
as if these terms were fully set forth therein; provided, however, that in the event there is a conflict between any provision set forth
in this Section 10 and any provision in any other Transaction Document, the provision in such other Transaction Document shall govern.

 

10.1.
Arbitration of Claims. The parties shall submit all Claims (as defined in Exhibit E) arising under this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document or any other agreement between the parties and their affiliates or any Claim relating to the relationship
of the parties to binding arbitration pursuant to the arbitration provisions set forth in Exhibit E attached hereto (the “Arbitration
Provisions”). For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the injunction described in Section 10.3 below may be pursued
in an arbitration that is separate and apart from any other arbitration regarding all other Claims arising under the Transaction Documents.
The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Arbitration Provisions are unconditionally binding on the parties hereto and are severable
from all other provisions of this Agreement. By executing this Agreement, Company represents, warrants and covenants that Company has
reviewed the Arbitration Provisions carefully, consulted with legal counsel about such provisions (or waived its right to do so), understands
that the Arbitration Provisions are intended to allow for the expeditious and efficient resolution of any dispute hereunder, agrees to
the terms and limitations set forth in the Arbitration Provisions, and that Company will not take a position contrary to the foregoing
representations. Company acknowledges and agrees that Investor may rely upon the foregoing representations and covenants of Company regarding
the Arbitration Provisions.

10.2.
Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction,
validity, interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Utah, without giving
effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Utah or any other jurisdiction) that would
cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Utah. Each party consents to and expressly agrees that
the exclusive venue for arbitration of any dispute arising out of or relating to any Transaction Document or the relationship of the
parties or their affiliates shall be in Salt Lake County, Utah. Without modifying the parties’ obligations to resolve disputes
hereunder pursuant to the Arbitration Provisions, for any litigation arising in connection with any of the Transaction Documents (and
notwithstanding the terms (specifically including any governing law and venue terms) of any transfer agent services agreement or other
agreement between the Transfer Agent and Company, such litigation specifically includes, without limitation any action between or involving
Company and the Transfer Agent under the TA Letter or otherwise related to Investor in any way (specifically including, without limitation,
any action where Company seeks to obtain an injunction, temporary restraining order, or otherwise prohibit the Transfer Agent from issuing
shares of Common Stock to Investor for any reason)), each party hereto hereby (i) consents to and expressly submits to the exclusive
personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah, (ii) expressly submits to the exclusive venue
of any such court for the purposes hereof, (iii) agrees to not bring any such action (specifically including, without limitation, any
action where Company seeks to obtain an injunction, temporary restraining order, or otherwise prohibit the Transfer Agent from issuing
shares of Common Stock to Investor for any reason) outside of any state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah, and (iv)
waives any claim of improper venue and any claim or objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or any other claim, defense
or objection to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdiction or to any claim that such venue of the suit, action or proceeding
is improper. Finally, Company covenants and agrees to name Investor as a party in interest in, and provide written notice to Investor
in accordance with Section 10.9 below, prior to bringing or filing, any action (including, without limitation any filing or action against
any person or entity that is not a party to this Agreement, including without limitation, the Transfer Agent) that is related in any
way to the Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated herein or therein, including without limitation any action brought by
Company to enjoin or prevent the issuance of any shares of Common Stock to Investor by the Transfer Agent, and further agrees to timely
name Investor as a party to any such action. Company acknowledges that the governing law and venue provisions set forth in this Section
10.2 are material terms to induce Investor to enter into the Transaction Documents and that but for Company’s agreements set forth
in this Section 10.2 Investor would not have entered into the Transaction Documents.

 

10.3.
Specific Performance. Company acknowledges and agrees that Investor may suffer irreparable harm in the event that Company fails
to perform any material provision of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents in accordance with its specific terms.
It is accordingly agreed that Investor shall be entitled to one or more injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of
this Agreement or such other Transaction Document and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, this being
in addition to any other remedy to which the Investor may be entitled under the Transaction Documents, at law or in equity. Company specifically
agrees that: (a) following an Event of Default (as defined in the Note) under the Note, Investor shall have the right to seek and receive
injunctive relief from a court or an arbitrator prohibiting Company from issuing any of its common or preferred stock to any party unless
the Note is being paid in full simultaneously with such issuance; and (b) following a breach of Section 4(vi) above, Investor shall have
the right to seek and receive injunctive relief from a court or arbitrator invalidating such lock-up. Company specifically acknowledges
that Investor’s right to obtain specific performance constitutes bargained for leverage and that the loss of such leverage would
result in irreparable harm to Investor. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event Investor seeks to obtain an injunction from a court
or an arbitrator against Company or specific performance of any provision of any Transaction Document, such action shall not be a waiver
of any right of Investor under any Transaction Document, at law, or in equity, including without limitation its rights to arbitrate any
Claim pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents, nor shall Investor’s pursuit of an injunction prevent Investor, under
the doctrines of claim preclusion, issues preclusion, res judicata or other similar legal doctrines, from pursuing other Claims in the
future in a separate arbitration.

10.4.
Counterparts. Each Transaction Document may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original,
but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. The parties hereto confirm that any electronic copy of another party’s
executed counterpart of a Transaction Document (or such party’s signature page thereof) will be deemed to be an executed original
thereof.

 

10.5.
Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation
of, this Agreement.

 

10.6.
Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule
of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to
conform to such statute or rule of law. Any provision hereof which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect
the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

 

10.7.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Transaction Documents, contains the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither Company nor Investor

sheets or other documents between Company and Investor, or any affiliate thereof, related to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents (collectively, “Prior Agreements”), that may have been entered into between Company and Investor, or any
affiliate thereof, are hereby null and void and deemed to be replaced in their entirety by the Transaction Documents. To the extent there
is a conflict between any term set forth in any Prior Agreement and the term(s) of the Transaction Documents, the Transaction Documents
shall govern.

 

10.8.
Amendments. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by both parties
hereto.

 

10.9.

Successors and Assigns. This Agreement or any of the severable rights and obligations inuring to the benefit of or to be performed
by Investor hereunder may be assigned by Investor to a third party, including its affiliates, in whole or in part, without the need to
obtain Company’s consent thereto. Company may not assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement or delegate its duties
hereunder without the prior written consent of Investor.

10.14. Attorneys’
Fees and Cost of Collection. In the event of any arbitration or action at law or in equity to enforce or interpret the terms of
this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, the parties agree that the party who is awarded the most money (which, for
the avoidance of doubt, shall be determined without regard to any statutory fines, penalties, fees, or other charges awarded to any
party) shall be deemed the prevailing party for all purposes and shall therefore be entitled to an additional award of the full
amount of the attorneys’ fees, deposition costs, and expenses paid by such prevailing party in connection with arbitration or
litigation without reduction or apportionment based upon the individual claims or defenses giving rise to the fees and expenses.
Nothing herein shall restrict or impair an arbitrator’s or a court’s power to award fees and expenses for frivolous or
bad faith pleading. If (i) the Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing
arbitration or legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any arbitration or legal proceeding, or Investor otherwise
takes action to collect amounts due under the Note or to enforce the provisions of the Note, or (ii) there occurs any bankruptcy,
reorganization, receivership of Company or other proceedings affecting Company’s creditors’ rights and involving a claim
under the Note; then Company shall pay the costs incurred by Investor for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection
with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees,
expenses, deposition costs, and disbursements.

 

10.15.
Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party
granting the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision
or consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent
or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.

 

10.16.
Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO DEMAND THAT ANY
ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, OR THE RELATIONSHIPS
OF THE PARTIES HERETO BE TRIED BY JURY. THIS WAIVER EXTENDS TO ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO DEMAND A TRIAL BY JURY ARISING UNDER COMMON LAW
OR ANY APPLICABLE STATUTE, LAW, RULE OR REGULATION. FURTHER, EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SUCH PARTY IS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY
WAIVING SUCH PARTY’S RIGHT TO DEMAND TRIAL BY JURY.

 

10.17.
Time is of the Essence. Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Agreement and the
other Transaction Documents.

 

10.18.

needed for Company to understand the terms, consequences and binding effect of this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents
and fully understand them. Company has had the opportunity to seek the advice of an attorney of Company’s choosing, or has waived
the right to do so, and is executing this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents voluntarily and without any duress or
undue influence by Investor or anyone else.

EXHIBIT
E

 

ARBITRATION
PROVISIONS

 

1.
Dispute Resolution. For purposes of this Exhibit E, the term “Claims” means any disputes, claims, demands,
causes of action, requests for injunctive relief, requests for specific performance, liabilities, damages, losses, or controversies whatsoever
arising from, related to, or connected with the transactions contemplated in the Transaction Documents and any communications between
the parties related thereto, including without limitation any claims of mutual mistake, mistake, fraud, misrepresentation, failure of
formation, failure of consideration, promissory estoppel, unconscionability, failure of condition precedent, rescission, and any statutory
claims, tort claims, contract claims, or claims to void, invalidate or terminate the Agreement (or these Arbitration Provisions (defined
below)) or any of the other Transaction Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, Investor’s pursuit of an injunction or other Claim
pursuant to these Arbitration Provisions or with a court will not later prevent Investor under the doctrines of claim preclusion, issue
preclusion, res judicata or other similar legal doctrines from pursuing other Claims in a separate arbitration in the future. The parties
to this Agreement (the “parties”) hereby agree that the Claims may be arbitrated in one or more Arbitrations pursuant
to these Arbitration Provisions (one for an injunction or injunctions and a separate one for all other Claims). The parties to the Agreement
hereby agree that the arbitration provisions set forth in this Exhibit E (“Arbitration Provisions”) are binding
on each of them. As a result, any attempt to rescind the Agreement (or these Arbitration Provisions) or declare the Agreement (or these
Arbitration Provisions) or any other Transaction Document invalid or unenforceable for any reason is subject to these Arbitration Provisions.
These Arbitration Provisions shall also survive any termination or expiration of the Agreement. Any capitalized term not defined in these
Arbitration Provisions shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement.

 

2.
Arbitration. Except as otherwise provided herein, all Claims must be submitted to arbitration (“Arbitration”)
to be conducted exclusively in Salt Lake County, Utah and pursuant to the terms set forth in these Arbitration Provisions. Subject to
the arbitration appeal right provided for in Paragraph 5 below (the “Appeal Right”), the parties agree that the award
of the arbitrator rendered pursuant to Paragraph 4 below (the “Arbitration Award”) shall be (a) final and binding
upon the parties, (b) the sole and exclusive remedy between them regarding any Claims, counterclaims, issues, or accountings presented
or pleaded to the arbitrator, and (c) promptly payable in United States dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset (with respect to
monetary awards). Subject to the Appeal Right, any costs or fees, including without limitation attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection
with or incident to enforcing the Arbitration Award shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the party resisting
such enforcement. The Arbitration Award shall include default interest (as defined or otherwise provided for in the Note, “Default
Interest”) (with respect to monetary awards) at the rate specified in the Note for Default Interest both before and after the
Arbitration Award. Judgment upon the Arbitration Award will be entered and enforced by any state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake
County, Utah.

 

3.
The Arbitration Act. The parties hereby incorporate herein the provisions and procedures set forth in the Utah Uniform Arbitration
Act, U.C.A. § 78B-11-101 et seq. (as amended or superseded from time to time, the “Arbitration Act”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to, and to the maximum extent permitted by, Section 105 of the Arbitration Act, in the event
of conflict or variation between the terms of these Arbitration Provisions and the provisions of the Arbitration Act, the terms of these
Arbitration Provisions shall control and the parties hereby waive or otherwise agree to vary the effect of all requirements of the Arbitration
Act that may conflict with or vary from these Arbitration Provisions.

 

4.
Arbitration Proceedings. Arbitration between the parties will be subject to the following:

 

4.1
Initiation of Arbitration. Pursuant to Section 110 of the Arbitration Act, the parties agree that a party may initiate Arbitration
by giving written notice to the other party (“Arbitration Notice”) in the same manner that notice is permitted under
Section 10.9 of the Agreement; provided, however, that the Arbitration Notice may not be given by email or fax. Arbitration will
be deemed initiated as of the date that the Arbitration Notice is deemed delivered to such other party under Section 10.9 of the Agreement
(the “Service Date”). After the Service Date, information may be delivered, and notices may be given, by email or
fax pursuant to Section 10.9 of the Agreement or any other method permitted thereunder. The Arbitration Notice must describe the nature
of the controversy, the remedies sought, and the election to commence Arbitration proceedings. All Claims in the Arbitration Notice must
be pleaded consistent with the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure.

 

    	 

     

    

 

4.2
Selection and Payment of Arbitrator.

 

(a)
Within ten (10) calendar days after the Service Date, Investor shall select and submit to Company the names of three (3) arbitrators
that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators by Utah ADR Services (http://www.utahadrservices.com) (such
three (3) designated persons hereunder are referred to herein as the “Proposed Arbitrators”). For the avoidance of
doubt, each Proposed Arbitrator must be qualified as a “neutral” with Utah ADR Services. Within five (5) calendar days after
Investor has submitted to Company the names of the Proposed Arbitrators, Company must select, by written notice to Investor, one (1)
of the Proposed Arbitrators to act as the arbitrator for the parties under these Arbitration Provisions. If Company fails to select one
of the Proposed Arbitrators in writing within such 5-day period, then Investor may select the arbitrator from the Proposed Arbitrators
by providing written notice of such selection to Company.

 

(b)
If Investor fails to submit to Company the Proposed Arbitrators within ten (10) calendar days after the Service Date pursuant to subparagraph
(a) above, then Company may at any time prior to Investor so designating the Proposed Arbitrators, identify the names of three (3) arbitrators
that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators by Utah ADR Service by written notice to Investor. Investor may
then, within five (5) calendar days after Company has submitted notice of its Proposed Arbitrators to Investor, select, by written notice
to Company, one (1) of the Proposed Arbitrators to act as the arbitrator for the parties under these Arbitration Provisions. If Investor
fails to select in writing and within such 5-day period one (1) of the three (3) Proposed Arbitrators selected by Company, then Company
may select the arbitrator from its three (3) previously selected Proposed Arbitrators by providing written notice of such selection to
Investor.

 

(c)
If a Proposed Arbitrator chosen to serve as arbitrator declines or is otherwise unable to serve as arbitrator, then the party that selected
such Proposed Arbitrator may select one (1) of the other three (3) Proposed Arbitrators within three (3) calendar days of the date the
chosen Proposed Arbitrator declines or notifies the parties he or she is unable to serve as arbitrator. If all three (3) Proposed Arbitrators
decline or are otherwise unable to serve as arbitrator, then the arbitrator selection process shall begin again in accordance with this
Paragraph 4.2.

 

(d)
The date that the Proposed Arbitrator selected pursuant to this Paragraph 4.2 agrees in writing (including via email) delivered to both
parties to serve as the arbitrator hereunder is referred to herein as the “Arbitration Commencement Date”. If an arbitrator
resigns or is unable to act during the Arbitration, a replacement arbitrator shall be chosen in accordance with this Paragraph 4.2 to
continue the Arbitration. If Utah ADR Services ceases to exist or to provide a list of neutrals and there is no successor thereto, then
the arbitrator shall be selected under the then prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association.

 

(e)
Subject to Paragraph 4.10 below, the cost of the arbitrator must be paid equally by both parties. Subject to Paragraph 4.10 below, if
one party refuses or fails to pay its portion of the arbitrator fee, then the other party can advance such unpaid amount (subject to
the accrual of Default Interest thereupon), with such amount being added to or subtracted from, as applicable, the Arbitration Award.

 

4.3
Applicability of Certain Utah Rules. The parties agree that the Arbitration shall be conducted generally in accordance with the
Utah Rules of Civil Procedure and the Utah Rules of Evidence. More specifically, the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure shall apply, without
limitation, to the filing of any pleadings, motions or memoranda, the conducting of discovery, and the taking of any depositions. The
Utah Rules of Evidence shall apply to any hearings, whether telephonic or in person, held by the arbitrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
it is the parties’ intent that the incorporation of such rules will in no event supersede these Arbitration Provisions. In the
event of any conflict between the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure or the Utah Rules of Evidence and these Arbitration Provisions, these
Arbitration Provisions shall control.

 

4.4
Answer and Default. An answer and any counterclaims to the Arbitration Notice shall be required to be delivered to the party initiating
the Arbitration within twenty (20) calendar days after the Arbitration Commencement Date. If an answer is not delivered by the required
deadline, the arbitrator must provide written notice to the defaulting party stating that the arbitrator will enter a default award against
such party if such party does not file an answer within five (5) calendar days of receipt of such notice. If an answer is not filed within
the five (5) day extension period, the arbitrator must render a default award, consistent with the relief requested in the Arbitration
Notice, against a party that fails to submit an answer within such time period.

 

    	 

     

    

 

4.5
Related Litigation. The party that delivers the Arbitration Notice to the other party shall have the option to also commence concurrent
legal proceedings with any state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah (“Litigation Proceedings”), subject
to the following: (a) the complaint in the Litigation Proceedings is to be substantially similar to the claims set forth in the Arbitration
Notice, provided that an additional cause of action to compel arbitration will also be included therein, (b) so long as the other party
files an answer to the complaint in the Litigation Proceedings and an answer to the Arbitration Notice, the Litigation Proceedings will
be stayed pending an Arbitration Award (or Appeal Panel Award (defined below), as applicable) hereunder, (c) if the other party fails
to file an answer in the Litigation Proceedings or an answer in the Arbitration proceedings, then the party initiating Arbitration shall
be entitled to a default judgment consistent with the relief requested, to be entered in the Litigation Proceedings, and (d) any legal
or procedural issue arising under the Arbitration Act that requires a decision of a court of competent jurisdiction may be determined
in the Litigation Proceedings. Any award of the arbitrator (or of the Appeal Panel (defined below)) may be entered in such Litigation
Proceedings pursuant to the Arbitration Act.

 

4.6
Discovery. Pursuant to Section 118(8) of the Arbitration Act, the parties agree that discovery shall be conducted as follows:

 

(a)
Written discovery will only be allowed if the likely benefits of the proposed written discovery outweigh the burden or expense thereof,
and the written discovery sought is likely to reveal information that will satisfy a specific element of a claim or defense already pleaded
in the Arbitration. The party seeking written discovery shall always have the burden of showing that all of the standards and limitations
set forth in these Arbitration Provisions are satisfied. The scope of discovery in the Arbitration proceedings shall also be limited
as follows:

 

(i)
To facts directly connected with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement.

 

(ii)
To facts and information that cannot be obtained from another source or in another manner that is more convenient, less burdensome or
less expensive than in the manner requested.

 

(b)
No party shall be allowed (i) more than fifteen (15) interrogatories (including discrete subparts), (ii) more than fifteen (15) requests
for admission (including discrete subparts), (iii) more than ten (10) document requests (including discrete subparts), or (iv) more than
three (3) depositions (excluding expert depositions) for a maximum of seven (7) hours per deposition. The costs associated with depositions
will be borne by the party taking the deposition. The party defending the deposition will submit a notice to the party taking the deposition
of the estimated attorneys’ fees that such party expects to incur in connection with defending the deposition. If the party defending
the deposition fails to submit an estimate of attorneys’ fees within five (5) calendar days of its receipt of a deposition notice,
then such party shall be deemed to have waived its right to the estimated attorneys’ fees. The party taking the deposition must
pay the party defending the deposition the estimated attorneys’ fees prior to taking the deposition, unless such obligation is
deemed to be waived as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. If the party taking the deposition believes that the estimated
attorneys’ fees are unreasonable, such party may submit the issue to the arbitrator for a decision. All depositions will be taken
in Utah.

 

(c)
All discovery requests (including document production requests included in deposition notices) must be submitted in writing to the arbitrator
and the other party. The party submitting the written discovery requests must include with such discovery requests a detailed explanation
of how the proposed discovery requests satisfy the requirements of these Arbitration Provisions and the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure.
The receiving party will then be allowed, within five (5) calendar days of receiving the proposed discovery requests, to submit to the
arbitrator an estimate of the attorneys’ fees and costs associated with responding to such written discovery requests and a written
challenge to each applicable discovery request. After receipt of an estimate of attorneys’ fees and costs and/or challenge(s) to
one or more discovery requests, consistent with subparagraph (c) above, the arbitrator will within three (3) calendar days make a finding
as to the likely attorneys’ fees and costs associated with responding to the discovery requests and issue an order that (i) requires
the requesting party to prepay the attorneys’ fees and costs associated with responding to the discovery requests, and (ii) requires
the responding party to respond to the discovery requests as limited by the arbitrator within twenty-five (25) calendar days of the arbitrator’s
finding with respect to such discovery requests. If a party entitled to submit an estimate of attorneys’ fees and costs and/or
a challenge to discovery requests fails to do so within such 5-day period, the arbitrator will make a finding that (A) there are no attorneys’
fees or costs associated with responding to such discovery requests, and (B) the responding party must respond to such discovery requests
(as may be limited by the arbitrator) within twenty-five (25) calendar days of the arbitrator’s finding with respect to such discovery
requests. Any party submitting any written discovery requests, including without limitation interrogatories, requests for production
subpoenas to a party or a third party, or requests for admissions, must prepay the estimated attorneys’ fees and costs, before
the responding party has any obligation to produce or respond to the same, unless such obligation is deemed waived as set forth above.

 

    	 

     

    

 

(d)
In order to allow a written discovery request, the arbitrator must find that the discovery request satisfies the standards set forth
in these Arbitration Provisions and the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure. The arbitrator must strictly enforce these standards. If a discovery
request does not satisfy any of the standards set forth in these Arbitration Provisions or the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure, the arbitrator
may modify such discovery request to satisfy the applicable standards, or strike such discovery request in whole or in part.

 

(e)
Each party may submit expert reports (and rebuttals thereto), provided that such reports must be submitted within sixty (60) days of
the Arbitration Commencement Date. Each party will be allowed a maximum of two (2) experts. Expert reports must contain the following:
(i) a complete statement of all opinions the expert will offer at trial and the basis and reasons for them; (ii) the expert’s name
and qualifications, including a list of all the expert’s publications within the preceding ten (10) years, and a list of any other
cases in which the expert has testified at trial or in a deposition or prepared a report within the preceding ten (10) years; and (iii)
the compensation to be paid for the expert’s report and testimony. The parties are entitled to depose any other party’s expert
witness one (1) time for no more than four (4) hours. An expert may not testify in a party’s case-in-chief concerning any matter
not fairly disclosed in the expert report.

 

4.7
Dispositive Motions. Each party shall have the right to submit dispositive motions pursuant Rule 12 or Rule 56 of the Utah Rules
of Civil Procedure (a “Dispositive Motion”). The party submitting the Dispositive Motion may, but is not required
to, deliver to the arbitrator and to the other party a memorandum in support (the “Memorandum in Support”) of the
Dispositive Motion. Within seven (7) calendar days of delivery of the Memorandum in Support, the other party shall deliver to the arbitrator
and to the other party a memorandum in opposition to the Memorandum in Support (the “Memorandum in Opposition”). Within
seven (7) calendar days of delivery of the Memorandum in Opposition, as applicable, the party that submitted the Memorandum in Support
shall deliver to the arbitrator and to the other party a reply memorandum to the Memorandum in Opposition (“Reply Memorandum”).
If the applicable party shall fail to deliver the Memorandum in Opposition as required above, or if the other party fails to deliver
the Reply Memorandum as required above, then the applicable party shall lose its right to so deliver the same, and the Dispositive Motion
shall proceed regardless.

 

4.8
Confidentiality. All information disclosed by either party (or such party’s agents) during the Arbitration process (including
without limitation information disclosed during the discovery process or any Appeal (defined below)) shall be considered confidential
in nature. Each party agrees not to disclose any confidential information received from the other party (or its agents) during the Arbitration
process (including without limitation during the discovery process or any Appeal) unless (a) prior to or after the time of disclosure
such information becomes public knowledge or part of the public domain, not as a result of any inaction or action of the receiving party
or its agents, (b) such information is required by a court order, subpoena or similar legal duress to be disclosed if such receiving
party has notified the other party thereof in writing and given it a reasonable opportunity to obtain a protective order from a court
of competent jurisdiction prior to disclosure, or (c) such information is disclosed to the receiving party’s agents, representatives
and legal counsel on a need to know basis who each agree in writing not to disclose such information to any third party. Pursuant to
Section 118(5) of the Arbitration Act, the arbitrator is hereby authorized and directed to issue a protective order to prevent the disclosure
of privileged information and confidential information upon the written request of either party.

 

4.9
Authorization; Timing; Scheduling Order. Subject to all other portions of these Arbitration Provisions, the parties hereby authorize
and direct the arbitrator to take such actions and make such rulings as may be necessary to carry out the parties’ intent for the
Arbitration proceedings to be efficient and expeditious. Pursuant to Section 120 of the Arbitration Act, the parties hereby agree that
an Arbitration Award must be made within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the Arbitration Commencement Date. The arbitrator
is hereby authorized and directed to hold a scheduling conference within ten (10) calendar days after the Arbitration Commencement Date
in order to establish a scheduling order with various binding deadlines for discovery, expert testimony, and the submission of documents
by the parties to enable the arbitrator to render a decision prior to the end of such 120-day period.

 

4.10
Relief. The arbitrator shall have the right to award or include in the Arbitration Award (or in a preliminary ruling) any relief
which the arbitrator deems proper under the circumstances, including, without limitation, specific performance and injunctive relief,
provided that the arbitrator may not award exemplary or punitive damages.

 

    	 

     

    

 

4.11
Fees and Costs. As part of the Arbitration Award, the arbitrator is hereby directed to require the losing party (the party being
awarded the least amount of money by the arbitrator, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be determined without regard to any statutory
fines, penalties, fees, or other charges awarded to any party) to (a) pay the full amount of any unpaid costs and fees of the Arbitration,
and (b) reimburse the prevailing party for all reasonable attorneys’ fees, arbitrator costs and fees, deposition costs, other discovery
costs, and other expenses, costs or fees paid or otherwise incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the Arbitration.

 

5.
Arbitration Appeal.

 

5.1
Initiation of Appeal. Following the entry of the Arbitration Award, either party (the “Appellant”) shall have
a period of thirty (30) calendar days in which to notify the other party (the “Appellee”), in writing, that the Appellant
elects to appeal (the “Appeal”) the Arbitration Award (such notice, an “Appeal Notice”) to a panel
of arbitrators as provided in Paragraph 5.2 below. The date the Appellant delivers an Appeal Notice to the Appellee is referred to herein
as the “Appeal Date”. The Appeal Notice must be delivered to the Appellee in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph
4.1 above with respect to delivery of an Arbitration Notice. In addition, together with delivery of the Appeal Notice to the Appellee,
the Appellant must also pay for (and provide proof of such payment to the Appellee together with delivery of the Appeal Notice) a bond
in the amount of 110% of the sum the Appellant owes to the Appellee as a result of the Arbitration Award the Appellant is appealing.
In the event an Appellant delivers an Appeal Notice to the Appellee (together with proof of payment of the applicable bond) in compliance
with the provisions of this Paragraph 5.1, the Appeal will occur as a matter of right and, except as specifically set forth herein, will
not be further conditioned. In the event a party does not deliver an Appeal Notice (along with proof of payment of the applicable bond)
to the other party within the deadline prescribed in this Paragraph 5.1, such party shall lose its right to appeal the Arbitration Award.
If no party delivers an Appeal Notice (along with proof of payment of the applicable bond) to the other party within the deadline described
in this Paragraph 5.1, the Arbitration Award shall be final. The parties acknowledge and agree that any Appeal shall be deemed part of
the parties’ agreement to arbitrate for purposes of these Arbitration Provisions and the Arbitration Act.

 

5.2
Selection and Payment of Appeal Panel. In the event an Appellant delivers an Appeal Notice to the Appellee (together with proof
of payment of the applicable bond) in compliance with the provisions of Paragraph 5.1 above, the Appeal will be heard by a three (3)
person arbitration panel (the “Appeal Panel”).

 

(a)
Within ten (10) calendar days after the Appeal Date, the Appellee shall select and submit to the Appellant the names of five (5) arbitrators
that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators by Utah ADR Services (http://www.utahadrservices.com) (such
five (5) designated persons hereunder are referred to herein as the “Proposed Appeal Arbitrators”). For the avoidance
of doubt, each Proposed Appeal Arbitrator must be qualified as a “neutral” with Utah ADR Services, and shall not be the arbitrator
who rendered the Arbitration Award being appealed (the “Original Arbitrator”). Within five (5) calendar days after
the Appellee has submitted to the Appellant the names of the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators, the Appellant must select, by written notice
to the Appellee, three (3) of the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators to act as the members of the Appeal Panel. If the Appellant fails to select
three (3) of the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators in writing within such 5-day period, then the Appellee may select such three (3) arbitrators
from the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators by providing written notice of such selection to the Appellant.

 

(b)
If the Appellee fails to submit to the Appellant the names of the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators within ten (10) calendar days after the
Appeal Date pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, then the Appellant may at any time prior to the Appellee so designating the Proposed
Appeal Arbitrators, identify the names of five (5) arbitrators that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators
by Utah ADR Service (none of whom may be the Original Arbitrator) by written notice to the Appellee. The Appellee may then, within five
(5) calendar days after the Appellant has submitted notice of its selected arbitrators to the Appellee, select, by written notice to
the Appellant, three (3) of such selected arbitrators to serve on the Appeal Panel. If the Appellee fails to select in writing within
such 5-day period three (3) of the arbitrators selected by the Appellant to serve as the members of the Appeal Panel, then the Appellant
may select the three (3) members of the Appeal Panel from the Appellant’s list of five (5) arbitrators by providing written notice
of such selection to the Appellee.

 

    	 

     

    

 

(c)
If a selected Proposed Appeal Arbitrator declines or is otherwise unable to serve, then the party that selected such Proposed Appeal
Arbitrator may select one (1) of the other five (5) designated Proposed Appeal Arbitrators within three (3) calendar days of the date
a chosen Proposed Appeal Arbitrator declines or notifies the parties he or she is unable to serve as an arbitrator. If at least three
(3) of the five (5) designated Proposed Appeal Arbitrators decline or are otherwise unable to serve, then the Proposed Appeal Arbitrator
selection process shall begin again in accordance with this Paragraph 5.2; provided, however, that any Proposed Appeal Arbitrators
who have already agreed to serve shall remain on the Appeal Panel.

 

(d)
The date that all three (3) Proposed Appeal Arbitrators selected pursuant to this Paragraph 5.2 agree in writing (including via email)
delivered to both the Appellant and the Appellee to serve as members of the Appeal Panel hereunder is referred to herein as the “Appeal
Commencement Date”. No later than five (5) calendar days after the Appeal Commencement Date, the Appellee shall designate in
writing (including via email) to the Appellant and the Appeal Panel the name of one (1) of the three (3) members of the Appeal Panel
to serve as the lead arbitrator in the Appeal proceedings. Each member of the Appeal Panel shall be deemed an arbitrator for purposes
of these Arbitration Provisions and the Arbitration Act, provided that, in conducting the Appeal, the Appeal Panel may only act or make
determinations upon the approval or vote of no less than the majority vote of its members, as announced or communicated by the lead arbitrator
on the Appeal Panel. If an arbitrator on the Appeal Panel ceases or is unable to act during the Appeal proceedings, a replacement arbitrator
shall be chosen in accordance with Paragraph 5.2 above to continue the Appeal as a member of the Appeal Panel. If Utah ADR Services ceases
to exist or to provide a list of neutrals, then the arbitrators for the Appeal Panel shall be selected under the then prevailing rules
of the American Arbitration Association.

 

(d)
Subject to Paragraph 5.7 below, the cost of the Appeal Panel must be paid entirely by the Appellant.

 

5.3
Appeal Procedure. The Appeal will be deemed an appeal of the entire Arbitration Award. In conducting the Appeal, the Appeal Panel
shall conduct a de novo review of all Claims described or otherwise set forth in the Arbitration Notice. Subject to the foregoing and
all other provisions of this Paragraph 5, the Appeal Panel shall conduct the Appeal in a manner the Appeal Panel considers appropriate
for a fair and expeditious disposition of the Appeal, may hold one or more hearings and permit oral argument, and may review all previous
evidence and discovery, together with all briefs, pleadings and other documents filed with the Original Arbitrator (as well as any documents
filed with the Appeal Panel pursuant to Paragraph 5.4(a) below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the Appeal, the Appeal
Panel shall not permit the parties to conduct any additional discovery or raise any new Claims to be arbitrated, shall not permit new
witnesses or affidavits, and shall not base any of its findings or determinations on the Original Arbitrator’s findings or the
Arbitration Award.

 

5.4
Timing.

 

(a)
Within seven (7) calendar days of the Appeal Commencement Date, the Appellant (i) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Appeal
Panel copies of the Appeal Notice, all discovery conducted in connection with the Arbitration, and all briefs, pleadings and other documents
filed with the Original Arbitrator (which material Appellee shall have the right to review and supplement if necessary), and (ii) may,
but is not required to, deliver to the Appeal Panel and to the Appellee a Memorandum in Support of the Appellant’s arguments concerning
or position with respect to all Claims, counterclaims, issues, or accountings presented or pleaded in the Arbitration. Within seven (7)
calendar days of the Appellant’s delivery of the Memorandum in Support, as applicable, the Appellee shall deliver to the Appeal
Panel and to the Appellant a Memorandum in Opposition to the Memorandum in Support. Within seven (7) calendar days of the Appellee’s
delivery of the Memorandum in Opposition, as applicable, the Appellant shall deliver to the Appeal Panel and to the Appellee a Reply
Memorandum to the Memorandum in Opposition. If the Appellant shall fail to substantially comply with the requirements of clause (i) of
this subparagraph (a), the Appellant shall lose its right to appeal the Arbitration Award, and the Arbitration Award shall be final.
If the Appellee shall fail to deliver the Memorandum in Opposition as required above, or if the Appellant shall fail to deliver the Reply
Memorandum as required above, then the Appellee or the Appellant, as the case may be, shall lose its right to so deliver the same, and
the Appeal shall proceed regardless.

 

(b)
Subject to subparagraph (a) above, the parties hereby agree that the Appeal must be heard by the Appeal Panel within thirty (30) calendar
days of the Appeal Commencement Date, and that the Appeal Panel must render its decision within thirty (30) calendar days after the Appeal
is heard (and in no event later than sixty (60) calendar days after the Appeal Commencement Date).

 

    	 

     

    

 

5.5
Appeal Panel Award. The Appeal Panel shall issue its decision (the “Appeal Panel Award”) through the lead arbitrator
on the Appeal Panel. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, the Appeal Panel Award shall (a) supersede in its entirety
and make of no further force or effect the Arbitration Award (provided that any protective orders issued by the Original Arbitrator shall
remain in full force and effect), (b) be final and binding upon the parties, with no further rights of appeal, (c) be the sole and exclusive
remedy between the parties regarding any Claims, counterclaims, issues, or accountings presented or pleaded in the Arbitration, and (d)
be promptly payable in United States dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset (with respect to monetary awards). Any costs or fees,
including without limitation attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with or incident to enforcing the Appeal Panel Award shall,
to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the party resisting such enforcement. The Appeal Panel Award shall include
Default Interest (with respect to monetary awards) at the rate specified in the Note for Default Interest both before and after the Arbitration
Award. Judgment upon the Appeal Panel Award will be entered and enforced by a state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah.

 

5.6
Relief. The Appeal Panel shall have the right to award or include in the Appeal Panel Award any relief which the Appeal Panel
deems proper under the circumstances, including, without limitation, specific performance and injunctive relief, provided that the Appeal
Panel may not award exemplary or punitive damages.

 

5.7 Fees
and Costs. As part of the Appeal Panel Award, the Appeal Panel is hereby directed to require the losing party (the party being
awarded the least amount of money by the arbitrator, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be determined without regard to any
statutory fines, penalties, fees, or other charges awarded to any party) to (a) pay the full amount of any unpaid costs and fees of
the Arbitration and the Appeal Panel, and (b) reimburse the prevailing party (the party being awarded the most amount of money by
the Appeal Panel, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be determined without regard to any statutory fines, penalties, fees, or
other charges awarded to any part) the reasonable attorneys’ fees, arbitrator and Appeal Panel costs and fees, deposition
costs, other discovery costs, and other expenses, costs or fees paid or otherwise incurred by the prevailing party in connection
with the Arbitration (including without limitation in connection with the Appeal).

 

6.
Miscellaneous.

 

6.1
Severability. If any part of these Arbitration Provisions is found to violate or be illegal under applicable law, then such provision
shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision enforceable under applicable law, and the remainder of the Arbitration
Provisions shall remain unaffected and in full force and effect.

 

6.2
Governing Law. These Arbitration Provisions shall be governed by the laws of the State of Utah without regard to the conflict
of laws principles therein.

 

6.3
Interpretation. The headings of these Arbitration Provisions are for convenience of reference only and shall not form part of,
or affect the interpretation of, these Arbitration Provisions.

 

6.4
Waiver. No waiver of any provision of these Arbitration Provisions shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed
by the party granting the waiver.

 

6.5
Time is of the Essence. Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to each and every provision of these Arbitration Provisions.
