SECTION II

REGISTRATION

 

2.1               The Company shall use its best efforts to, within forty five (45) days of the Execution Date, file with the SEC a Registration
Statement or Registration Statements (as is necessary) on Form S-1 (or, if such form is unavailable for such a registration, on
such other form as is available for such registration), covering the resale of 2,000,000 shares of the Registrable Securities,
which Registration Statement(s) shall state that, in accordance with Rule 416 promulgated under the 1933 Act, such Registration
Statement also covers such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock as may become issuable upon stock splits,
stock dividends or similar transactions. The Company shall initially register for resale 2,000,000 shares of Registrable Securities
except to the extent that the SEC requires the share amount to be reduced as a condition of effectiveness.

 

2.2               The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement(s) declared effective by the SEC
within seventy-five (75) days but no more than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Company has filed the Registration Statement(s).

 

2.3               Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in Section 2.1, if the staff of the SEC (the “Staff”)
or the SEC informs the Company that all of the unregistered Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule
415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single Registration Statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform
the Investor and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Registration Statement as required by the SEC
and/or (ii) withdraw the Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (the “New Registration Statement”),
in either case covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the SEC, on Form S-1 to register
for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering. If the Company amends the Registration Statement or files a New
Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to file with the SEC, as promptly as allowed by the Staff or SEC, one or more registration statements on Form S-1 to register
for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Registration Statement, as amended, or the New
Registration Statement. Additionally, the Company shall have the ability to file one or more New Registration Statements to cover
the Registrable Securities once the Shares under the initial Registration Statement referenced in Section 2.1 have been
sold.

 

SECTION III

RELATED OBLIGATIONS

 

At such time as the Company is obligated
to prepare and file the Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2, the Company shall effect the registration
of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, with respect thereto, the Company
shall have the following obligations:

 

3.1               Upon the effectiveness of such Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities, the Company shall keep such
Registration Statement effective until the earlier to occur of the date on which (A) the Investor shall have sold all the Registrable
Securities actually issued or that the Company has an obligation to issue under the Investment Agreement; or (B) the Investor has
no right to acquire any additional shares of Common Stock under the Investment Agreement; or (C) the Investor may sell the Registrable
Securities without volume limitations under Rule 144 (the “Registration Period”). The Registration  

 

-3-  

Statement
(including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. The Investor agrees to provide all information which it is
required by law to provide to the Company, including the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities, and the
Company’s obligations set forth in this Agreement shall be conditioned on the receipt of such information.

 

3.2               The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to
the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed
pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective during the
Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all
Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities
shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Investor thereof as set forth in such
Registration Statement. In the event the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement filed pursuant
to this Agreement is at any time insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall amend such Registration
Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover
all of the Registrable Securities, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) calendar days after
the necessity therefor arises (based on the then Purchase Price of the Common Stock and other relevant factors on which the Company
reasonably elects to rely), assuming the Company has sufficient authorized shares at that time, and if it does not, within thirty
(30) calendar days after such shares are authorized. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment
and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.

 

3.3               As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify Investor in writing of the happening
of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue
statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (“Registration Default”) and
use all diligent efforts to promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement and take any other necessary
steps to cure the Registration Default (which, if such Registration Statement is on Form S-3, may consist of a document to be filed
by the Company with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act and to be incorporated by reference in
the prospectus) to correct such untrue statement or omission, and make available copies of such supplement or amendment to the
Investor. The Company shall also promptly notify the Investor (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment has been filed, and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective; (ii) of any
request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, (iii)
of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be appropriate,
(iv) in the event the Registration Statement is no longer effective, or (v) if the Registration Statement is stale as a result
of the Company’s failure to timely file its financials or otherwise

 

3.4               The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension
of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for
sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at
the earliest possible moment and to notify the Investor holding Registrable
Securities being sold of the 

 

-4-  

issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt
of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding concerning the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

 

3.5               The Company shall permit the Investor and one (1) legal counsel, designated by the Investor, to review and comment upon
the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at least one (1) calendar day prior to their filing with
the SEC. However, any postponement of a filing of a Registration Statement or any postponement of a request for acceleration or
any postponement of the effective date or effectiveness of a Registration Statement by written request of the Investor (collectively,
the "Investor's Delay") shall not act to trigger any penalty of any kind, or any cash amount due or any in-kind
amount due the Investor from the Company under any and all agreements of any nature or kind between the Company and the Investor.
The event(s) of an Investor's Delay shall act to suspend all obligations of any kind or nature of the Company under any and all
agreements of any nature or kind between the Company and the Investor.

 

3.6               The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning the Investor unless (i) disclosure
of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary
to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered
pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv)
such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any
other agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning the Investor is
sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to the
Investor and allow the Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or
to obtain a protective order covering such information.

 

3.7               The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities
covered by any Registration Statement on the Principal Market. If, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts,
the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying the preceding sentence, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all the
Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be listed on each other national securities exchange and automated
quotation system, if any, on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the
listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or system. The Company shall pay all
fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3.7.

 

3.8               If requested by the Investor, the Company shall (i) as soon as reasonably practical incorporate in a prospectus supplement
or post-effective amendment such information as the Investor reasonably determines should be included therein relating to the sale
and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the offering of the Registrable
Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment
as soon as reasonably possible after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement if reasonably requested by the Investor.

 

3.9               The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable
Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary
to facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

-5-  

 

3.10           The Company shall otherwise use all commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations
of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder.

 

3.11           The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investor of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

 

SECTION IV

OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTOR

4.1               At least five (5) calendar days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall
notify the Investor in writing of the information the Company requires from the Investor for the Registration Statement. It shall
be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect
to the Registrable Securities and the Investor agrees to furnish to the Company that information regarding itself, the Registrable
Securities and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities as shall reasonably be required to effect the registration
of such Registrable Securities and the Investor shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company
may reasonably request. The Investor covenants and agrees that, in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities by it pursuant
to the Registration Statement, it shall comply with the “Plan of Distribution” section of the then current prospectus
relating to such Registration Statement.

 

4.2               The Investor, by its acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested
by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder, unless the Investor has notified
the Company in writing of an election to exclude all of the Investor’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.

 

4.3               The Investor agrees that, upon receipt of written notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described
in Section 3.4 or the first sentence of Section 3.3, the Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable
Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until the Investor’s receipt of
the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.4 or the first sentence of Section 3.3.

 

SECTION V

EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION

 

All legal expenses
of the Company incurred in connection with registrations shall be paid by the Company.

 

SECTION VI

INDEMNIFICATION

 

In the event any Registrable Securities are included in the
Registration Statement under this Agreement:

 

6.1               To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, under this Agreement, will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless
and defend the Investor who holds Registrable Securities, the directors, officers, partners, employees, counsel, agents, representatives
of, and each Person, if any, who controls, any Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each, an “Indemnified
Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, attorneys’
fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”), incurred in investigating,
preparing or  

 

-6-  

defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before
any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or
not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become
subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or
are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement or any post-effective
amendment thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (ii) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the
Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any
material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were
made, not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law,
including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of
the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being,
collectively, “Violations”). Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 6.3 the Company shall reimburse
the Investor and each such controlling person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable
legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6.1: (i) shall not apply
to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which is due to the inclusion in the Registration Statement of the information
furnished to the Company by any Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement
or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on (a) a failure
of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company or (b) the Indemnified Person’s
use of an incorrect prospectus despite being promptly advised in advance by the Company in writing not to use such incorrect prospectus;
(iii) any claims based on the manner of sale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor or of the Investor’s failure to
register as a dealer under applicable securities laws; (iv) any omission of the Investor to notify the Company of any material
fact that should be stated in the Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Investor or the manner of sale; and (v)
any amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant
to the Registration Statement.

 

6.2               In connection with any Registration Statement in which Investor is participating, the Investor agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6.1, the Company, each of its
directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act and the Company’s agents (collectively and together with an Indemnified Person, an
“Indemnified Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under
the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation,
in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation is due to the inclusion in the Registration Statement of
the written information furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly for use  

 

-7-  

in connection with such Registration Statement;
and, subject to Section 6.3, the Investor shall reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection
with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section
6.2 and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement
of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall only be liable under this Section 6.2 for that amount of a
Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities
pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made
by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to
the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained
in this Section 6.2 with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if
the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus were corrected on a timely basis in the
prospectus, as then amended or supplemented.

 

6.3               Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement
of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified
Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate
in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume
control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified
Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its
own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained
by the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party, the representation by counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and
the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or
Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The indemnifying party shall pay for only
one (1) separate legal counsel for the Indemnified Persons or the Indemnified Parties, as applicable, and such counsel shall be
selected by the Investor, if the Investor is entitled to indemnification hereunder, or the Company, if the Company is entitled
to indemnification hereunder, as applicable. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying
party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to
the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such
action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to
the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement
of any action, claim or proceeding affected without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not
unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Party
or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include
as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release
from all liability in respect to such Claim. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall
be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations
relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party
within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the
Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced
in its ability to defend such action.

-8-  

 

6.4               The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified
Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject
to pursuant to the law.

 

SECTION VII

CONTRIBUTION

 

7.1               To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees
to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the
fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker
would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6; (ii) no seller of Registrable
Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution
from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (iii) contribution by any seller
of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such
Registrable Securities, or, if Registrable Securities are unsold, the value of such Registrable Securities.

 

SECTION VIII

REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT

 

8.1               After the Execution Date of the Registration Statement and with a view to making available to the Investor the benefits
of Rule 144 that may at any time permit the Investor to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, provided
that the Investor holds any Registrable Securities that are eligible for resale under Rule 144, the Company agrees to:

 

		a.	make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

 

		b.	file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under
the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other
documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

 

		c.	furnish to the Investor, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it
has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, as applicable, and (ii) such other information
as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

ATTACHED TO CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES

 

Transfer Agent Instructions (5 pages)

 

 

DATE:  February 10, 2017

 

Corporate Stock Transfer

3200 Cherry Creek South Drive, Suite 430

Denver, Colorado 80209

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

On behalf of Helix TCS, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), reference is made to certain Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”),
listed in Exhibit A, by and between the Company and RedDiamond Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(the “Holder”). A copy of each of the above are attached hereto. Pursuant to the terms of the Notes the Holder
is given the right to convert all or any portion of the Principal Amount of the Notes into shares of common stock (the “Shares”)
of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock” or “Subject Shares”). We ask
that you familiarize yourself with your issuance and delivery obligations as Transfer Agent, contained herein. These Transfer
Agent Instructions will supersede and replace all Instructions for RedDiamond Partners, LLC prior to the date written above.

 

From and after the date hereof and until all
of Company’s obligations under the Note are paid and performed in full, (a) you are hereby authorized to establish a reserve
of shares of authorized but unissued Common Stock of the Company in an amount not less than 2,000,000 shares (the “Transfer
Agent Reserve”) for issuance upon partial or full conversion of the Notes listed in Exhibit A in accordance with the terms
thereof, (b) you shall maintain and hold the Transfer Agent Reserve for the exclusive benefit of Holder, (c) you shall issue the
shares of Common Stock held in the Transfer Agent Reserve to Holder or its broker only (subject to the immediately following clause
(d)), (d) when you issue shares of Common Stock to Holder or its broker under the Note pursuant to the other instructions in this
Letter, you shall issue such shares from Company’s authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock to the extent the
same are available and not from the Transfer Agent Reserve unless and until there are no authorized shares of Common Stock available
for issuance other than those held in the Transfer Agent Reserve, at which point, and upon your receipt of written authorization
from Holder, you shall then issue any shares of Common Stock deliverable to Holder under the Note  

 

 

-1-  

from the Transfer Agent Reserve,
(e) you shall not otherwise reduce the Transfer Agent Reserve under any circumstances, unless Holder delivers to you written pre-approval
of such reduction, and (f) you shall immediately add shares of Common Stock to the Transfer Agent Reserve as and when requested
by Company or Holder in writing from time to time, provided that such incremental increases do not cause the Transfer Agent Reserve
to exceed the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock.

 

The ability to convert the Principal Amount
of the Notes in a timely manner is a material obligation of the Company pursuant to the Notes. Your firm is hereby authorized and
instructed to issue shares of Common Stock of the Company (without any restrictive legend) to the Holder without any further
action or confirmation by the Company upon your receipt from the Holder of (a) a notice of conversion ("Conversion Notice")
executed by the Holder; and (b) an opinion of counsel of the Holder, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel
in comparable transactions (and satisfactory to the transfer agent), to the effect that the shares of Common Stock of the Company
issued to the Holder pursuant to the Conversion Notice are not "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 and should
be issued to the Holder without any restrictive legend. Please note that a share issuance resolution is not required for each conversion
since these instructions and the Notes have previously been approved by a resolution of the Company’s board of directors.
Your firm shall not be responsible for any of the calculations or numbers provided in any such conversion notice.

 

The Company hereby requests that
your firm act immediately, without delay and without the need for any action or confirmation by the Company with respect to the
issuance of Common Stock pursuant to any Conversion Notices received from the Holder. Your firm will not delay in processing any
Conversion Notices owing to the fact that the Company is in arrears of its fees and other monies owed to your firm, as long as
it is less than $1,000,00, provided that the Holder agrees that each time a Conversion Notice is delivered to your firm, in the
event the Company refuses to pay the cost associated with processing a Conversion Notice (in contradiction with the terms of the
Note) the Holder agrees to pay the cost of processing the Conversion Notice a sum not to exceed $200.00 for each such transaction.
In the event that the Company is suspended with Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc. due to non-payment, with an account balance exceeding
$1,000, and said invoice is more than 30 days in past due, the Holder would be required to bring the account balance current for
any issuance of shares to take place by Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc.

 

The Holder
shall reserve the right to maintain this Transfer Agent Reserve beyond the date
of retirement of the Note provided that there are other existing securities
issued by the Company in the Holder's name as of the date of that retirement and
said securities require a share reserve to be maintained. The Holder shall be
allowed to re-assign this Transfer Agent Reserve to any other existing
securities in Holder's name without the 

 

-2-  

Company's
approval. Additionally, the Holder shall reserve the right to transfer the
Transfer Agent Reserve to any other note holder of the Company without the
Company's approval. This Transfer Agent Reserve may not be transferred,
extinguished or otherwise re-assigned without prior written approval by the
Holder. 

 

The Company hereby directs you,
upon request by the Holder or Holder’s broker dealer, to immediately provide any capitalization structure information pertaining
to the number of common shares of the Company that are issued and outstanding, authorized, reserved, treasury or in the public
float without any further action or confirmation by the Company.

 

The Company shall indemnify you and your officers, directors, principals,
partners, agents and representatives, and hold each of them harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim
or expense (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its attorneys) incurred by or asserted against you or any of them
arising out of or in connection with the instructions set forth herein, the performance of your duties hereunder and otherwise
in respect hereof, including the costs and expenses of defending yourself or themselves against any claim or liability hereunder,
except that the Company shall not be liable hereunder as to matters in respect of which it is determined that you have acted with
gross negligence or in bad faith (which gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct must be determined by a final, non-appealable
order, judgment, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction). You shall have no liability to the Company in respect
to any action taken or any failure to act in respect of this if such action was taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, and
you shall be entitled to rely in this regard on the advice of counsel. The Transfer Agent has no obligation to confirm the accuracy
in the conversion notice.

 

The Board of Directors of the Company has approved
the foregoing (instructions) and does hereby extend the Company’s irrevocable agreement to indemnify your firm for all loss,
liability or expense in carrying out the authority and direction herein contained on the terms herein set forth.

 

The Company agrees, in the event of a change
in transfer agents, that the Transfer Agent Reserve shall be automatically reestablished at the new transfer agent. The Company
agrees that in the event that the transfer agent resigns as the Company’s transfer agent, the Company shall engage a suitable
replacement transfer agent, agreeable to the Holder, that will agree to serve as the transfer agent for the Company and be bound
by the terms and conditions of these irrevocable instructions within five (5) business days. Furthermore, if the Company decides
to switch or terminate the current transfer agent, 30 days’ notice of termination must be given, and the fee for the irrevocable
agreement transfer will be $350.00 per irrevocable agreement payable to the current transfer agent prior to termination.

 

-3-  

The Holder is intended to be and are third
party beneficiaries hereof, and no amendment or modification to the instructions set forth herein may be made without the consent
of the Holder.

 

Please execute this letter in the space indicated
to acknowledge your agreement to act in accordance with these instructions and return a copy of this agreement to the Company and
to the Holder.

 

Very truly yours,

 

 

Helix TCS, Inc.
