The Purchaser desires to exchange the Exchange Securities for certain secured convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) to be newly issued by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.  The parties to this Agreement intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are such that the offer and exchange of securities by the Company under this Agreement will be exempt from registration under applicable United States securities laws as a result of this exchange offer being undertaken pursuant to Sections 3(a)(9) and 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
To provide the Company with additional resources to conduct its business, the Purchaser is willing to purchase up to an aggregate amount of $2,000,000 of Notes for cash, subject to the conditions specified herein.

The Notes issued in exchange for the Exchange Securities shall generally be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C or D (as appropriate) and otherwise shall be in a form mutually acceptable to the parties.  Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the parties set forth in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that the purpose of such representations and warranties is, among other things, to ensure that such exchange qualifies as an exchange of securities under Sections 3(a)(9) and 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

For value received, Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Payor”), promises to pay to Global Ichiban Ltd or its assigns (“Holder”) the principal sum of $___________________ with interest on the outstanding principal amount at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum.  Interest shall commence from the effective date and shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days for the actual number of days elapsed.  The principal and accrued interest on this note (the “Note”) shall be due and payable over Thirty Six (36) equal monthly instalments commencing on January 15, 2018 (the “Instalment”) and ending on December 15, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”), provided that the Instalment and Maturity Date of all Notes (as defined below) may be extended with the written consent of Holder.

(c)    An involuntary petition is filed against Payor (unless such petition is dismissed or discharged within thirty (30) days under any bankruptcy statute now or hereafter in effect) or a custodian, receiver, trustee, assignee for the benefit of creditors (or other similar official) is appointed to take possession, custody or control of any property of Payor.
10.

11.    The Payor hereby waives notice of default, presentment or demand for payment, protest or notice of nonpayment or dishonor and all other notices or demands relative to this Note.
12.    This Note shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Colorado, as applied to agreements among Colorado residents, made and to be performed entirely within the State of Colorado, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles.
13.    Any term of this Note (excluding the principal amount of the Note and the interest rate of the Note) may be amended or waived with the written consent of Payor and Holder.  Upon the effectuation of such waiver or amendment in conformance with this Section 13, the Payor shall promptly give written notice thereof to the record holders of the Notes who have not previously consented thereto in writing.
