Condition of Leased Premises. Tenant has made a complete examination and

WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS IN
THE LEASED PREMISES (INCLUDING THE EXPANSION PREMISES). ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES
WITH RESPECT THERETO, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE EXPRESSLY NEGATED AND WAIVED.

“(a)        At all times during
the Term, Landlord agrees to furnish and Tenant agrees to pay for and lease,
permits to park one hundred twenty (120) vehicles in the Garage on an unassigned
basis (the "Unassigned Permits"); provided Tenant may request that up to
forty (40) of such Unassigned Permits be converted to permits for reserved
spaces in the Garage ("Reserved Permits"). No specific spaces in the
Garage are to be assigned to Tenant for the Unassigned Permits, but Landlord may
designate the area in which the vehicles with Unassigned Permits may be parked,
which designations may change from time to time. Additionally, Landlord will
designate a specific space in the Garage for each Reserved Permit, if any, to be
issued by Landlord to Tenant as provided herein, which designated space may be
changed by Landlord from time to time. Landlord will issue to Tenant the
aforesaid number of parking stickers and/or cards each of which will authorize
parking in the Garage of a vehicle on which the sticker is displayed, or Landlord will provide a reasonable
alternative means of identifying and controlling vehicles authorized to be
parked in the Garage.”

                          Tenant,
but not any sublesseee or assignee of Tenant, shall be permitted to place
signage in the elevator lobbies of the full floors it leases and occupies (only
during the period Tenant leases and occupies such full floor), subject to
Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided
that Tenant shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses related in
any way to such elevator lobby signage including but not limited to costs
associated with design, permitting, installing, maintaining, repairing,
lighting, powering, insuring, cleaning and removing such signage. 

                          From
and after the First Amendment Effective Date and only for so long as the Signage
Conditions (defined below) are satisfied, during the Term, Tenant shall have the
right to place the name “Nobilis Health” on the multi-tenant monument sign
located on the Land (the “Monument Sign”) at Tenant’s sole cost and
expense. Tenant shall be responsible for Tenant’s share (with all tenants
placing their name on the monument sign bearing an equal share) of costs of such
signage, including but not limited to costs associated with design, permitting,
installing, maintaining, repairing, lighting, powering, insuring, cleaning, and
removing such signage on the Monument Sign. The costs incurred by Landlord of
initially installing, and the costs of any changes to or removal of such name on
the Monument Sign, shall be paid by Tenant within thirty (30) days of Tenant’s
receipt of a written request for reimbursement. The design (including, without
limitation, font size and graphics) of such Tenant signage, and the materials
used in the installation thereof, shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld, and all other Legal Requirements. The
names placed in the Monument Sign, including Tenant’s, shall be placed in
descending order by the amount of square footage leased by such tenants,
including Tenant, having the right to place their name on the Monument Sign.

                          If
any of the Signage Conditions are no longer satisfied, Landlord shall have the
right to remove such signage from the Monument Sign and otherwise grant rights
in contravention of this Section 8, and Tenant shall be obligated to reimburse
Landlord for the costs incurred by Landlord to remove such name from, and to
restore, the Monument Sign, plus a fee to Landlord equal to five percent (5%) of
the foregoing costs.

                          Landlord
reserves the right from time to time during the Term to (i) grant exterior
identification signs to other tenants of the Building, (ii) include the names of
other tenants of the Building on the Monument Sign, (iii) alter the Monument
Sign, and/or (iv) remove or replace the Monument Sign, provided that, if
Landlord removes and replaces the Monument Sign, Landlord shall promptly install
a sign of comparable or greater size and quality to the Monument Sign or of a substantially similar size, quality and visibility of
monument signs then in place at comparable Buildings on the Land in a location
to be reasonably determined by Landlord in replacement thereof and Landlord
shall pay all expenses related to replacement of Tenant’s identification signs
on the Monument Sign.

used herein, “Signage Conditions” shall mean: 

	 	(i)

intermediaries entitled to any compensation in connection with this First
Amendment except the Brokers. Landlord will pay the fees of the Brokers pursuant
to separate agreements between Landlord and the Brokers. Tenant agrees to
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord from and against any claims and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred as a result of any

of the above specified Brokers under their agreements with Landlord.

                          10.      Full
Force and Effect. In the event any of the terms of the Original Lease
conflict with the terms of this First Amendment, the terms of this First
Amendment shall control. Except as amended hereby, specifically including any
rights of first refusal or renewal options, all terms and conditions of the
Original Lease shall remain in full force and effect, and Landlord and Tenant

      Plan has been approved by Landlord, Tenant shall cause working drawings
      (the “Tenant Working Drawings”) of the Tenant Improvements to be
      prepared and shall deliver the same to Landlord for its approval within
      fifteen (15) days after the date of Landlord’s approval of the Tenant
      Space Plans. The Tenant Working Drawings shall consist of complete sets of

      used herein the term “qualified bid” shall mean any bid from the Building
      Contractor or one of the contractors selected by Tenant pursuant to
      Paragraph 1 above, which bid accurately reflects the improvements to be
      made pursuant to the Working Drawings and which Landlord, taking into

      level.

      with Tenant.

	 	 
	4. 	
      Tenant Contractor - Mechanic’s and Materialmen’s
      Liens. Should any mechanic's or other liens be filed against any
      portion of the Project, including the Leased Premises, by reason of
      Tenant's or Tenant Contractor's acts or omissions or because of a claim
      against Tenant or Tenant Contractor, Tenant shall inform Landlord of such
      lien immediately and cause the same to be canceled or discharged of record
      by bond or otherwise within twenty (20) days after receipt of notice by
      Tenant. If Tenant fails to cancel or discharge the lien within said twenty
      (20) day period, Landlord may, at its sole option, cancel or discharge the
      same and upon Landlord's demand, Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord
      for all costs (including attorneys' fees plus a management fee equal to
      ten percent (10%) of all costs) incurred in canceling or discharging such
      liens.

	 	 
	7. 	
      Construction Management Fee; Payment of Landlord.
      Tenant shall be responsible for paying to Landlord a construction
      management fee equal to five percent (5%) of the cost of the Tenant

      pursuant to this Exhibit C within ten (10) days after billing by
      Landlord.

	 	 
	8. 	
      Default. The failure by Tenant to comply with the
      provisions of this Exhibit C shall constitute a default by Tenant
      under the terms of Section 6.8 of the Lease and Landlord shall have the
      benefit of all remedies provided for in the Lease.

10 

	9. 	
      Change Orders. Tenant may authorize changes in the
      Tenant Improvements; provided that any changes must meet the criteria set
      forth in Article I of this Exhibit C. Tenant shall also be
      responsible for any delays or additional costs caused by such change
      orders.

	 	 
	10. 	
      As-Built Plans and Certificate of Occupancy. Upon
      completion of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a
      copy of the as-built plans and specifications for the Tenant Improvements
      in both electronic and hard copy format, and (if required pursuant to
      applicable laws, codes, rules and regulations) a permanent, unconditional
      certificate of occupancy issued by the City of Houston with respect to the
      Tenant Improvements, within thirty (30) days of completing the same. Upon
      receipt, Landlord will transfer such plans to Landlord’s master plans at a
      cost to be borne by Tenant.

Article III

      Landlord’s Contribution. Tenant shall be
      responsible for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the

      architects certifications). Additionally, Landlord shall, upon
      presentation by Tenant of proof of payment reasonably acceptable to
      Landlord (including, but not limited to, paid invoices, copies of canceled
      checks and lien waivers), pay to Tenant a portion of Landlord's
      Contribution equal to the amount paid by Tenant to any contractors hired
      directly by Tenant; provided that such contractors were approved by
      Landlord in writing. Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of all
      costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Tenant Improvements
      which exceed Landlord’s Contribution; provided that Tenant shall not be
      required to make any payments to the Tenant Contractor until the
      Landlord’s Contribution has been expended in full. Once the Landlord’s
      Contribution has been paid in full by Landlord, Tenant shall pay all
      remaining costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Tenant
      Improvements promptly upon being presented an invoice for such costs and
      expenses by Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
      herein, in no event shall Landlord be required to pay any for any costs in
      connection with the Tenant Improvements which, in the aggregate, exceed
      Landlord’s Contribution.

      Unpaid Amounts. If any portion of Landlord's

EXHIBIT D

RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL 

                          1.       
Subject to and upon the terms, provisions and conditions set forth in this
Exhibit, Tenant shall have, and is hereby granted, a continuing right of refusal
(the “Right of Refusal”) commencing on the First Amendment
Effective Date and expiring on the first anniversary thereof to lease up to 50%
of the premises on the fifth (5th) floor of the Building (hereinafter sometimes
called the “Refusal Premises”), subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein. 

                          2.       
Tenant may exercise a Right of Refusal only if, at the time of such exercise and
at the time of Landlord’s delivery of the Refusal Premises to Tenant, (a) no
Event of Default exists and (b) Tenant is in occupancy of the entire Premises
(unless Landlord, in its sole discretion, elects to waive such condition(s)).
Occupancy by a sublessee or assignee (other than a Permitted Affiliate that is
an assignee of Tenant’s entire interest in the Lease permitted under Section 5.4
of the Lease) shall not constitute occupancy by Tenant. If such condition(s) are
not satisfied or waived by Landlord, any purported exercise thereof shall be
null and void.

                          3.       
If (i) Landlord has previously leased 50% of the Net Rentable Area on the fifth
(5th) floor, or (ii) Landlord has received an offer from, or made an
offer to, a tenant that Landlord is willing to accept, for the tenant to lease a
portion of the Net Rentable Area on the fifth (5th) floor, the result
of which would be that less than 50% of the Net Rentable Area on the fifth
(5th) floor would remain unleased, then in either such event Landlord
shall, prior to entering into a lease with such tenant, deliver written notice
to Tenant offering to lease such portion of the Refusal Premises to Tenant,
together with a description of the material terms of such offer (a “Lease
Proposal”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein: 

                          (a)
in the event that Landlord delivers a Lease Proposal to Tenant for 50% or more
of the Net Rentable Area on the fifth (5th) floor and Tenant waives,
or is deemed to have waived, its Right of Refusal with respect thereto then
Tenant’s Right of Refusal shall, subject to Section 8 below, terminate and be of
no further force and effect; and 

                          (b)
in the event that Landlord delivers a Lease Proposal to Tenant and Tenant
waives, or is deemed to have waived, its Right of Refusal with respect thereto
then Tenant’s Right of Refusal shall, subject to Section 8 below, be reduced by
the amount of Net Rentable Area contained in such Lease Proposal. By way of
example only, if Landlord delivers a Lease Proposal to Tenant which covers 30%
of the Net Rentable Area on the fifth (5th) floor, and Tenant waives,
or is deemed to have waived, its Right of Refusal with respect thereto, Tenant’s
Right of Refusal shall thereafter only apply to the extent that Landlord has
previously leased 80% of the Net Rentable Area on the fifth (5th)
floor, or (ii) Landlord has received an offer from, or made an offer to, a
tenant that Landlord is willing to accept, for the tenant to lease a portion of
the Net Rentable Area on the fifth (5th) floor, the result of which
would be that less than 20% of the Net Rentable Area on the fifth
(5th) floor would remain unoccupied. 

14 

                          4.       
Tenant shall have a period of five (5) days after receipt of a Lease Proposal to
irrevocably and unconditionally exercise its Right of Refusal to lease the
applicable Refusal Premises upon the terms of the Lease Proposal by written
notice to Landlord. 

                          5.       
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord intends to lease all or part of the
Refusal Premises together with space in the Building that is not Refusal
Premises, then Landlord may deliver a Lease Proposal that includes all of such
space, including space in addition to the Refusal Premises (the “Additional
Refusal Premises”), in which case Tenant must exercise the Right of Refusal
as to all, but not part, of such space, including both the applicable Refusal
Premises and the applicable Additional Refusal Premises. 

                          6.       
If Tenant does not exercise a Right of Refusal within such five (5) day period,
the Right of Refusal shall be waived with respect to such space. Any purported
conditional or qualified exercise of a Right of Refusal shall be null and void.
Upon Tenant’s exercise of a Right of Refusal, Landlord and Tenant shall
negotiate an amendment to the Lease evidencing same, but an otherwise valid
exercise of a Right of Refusal shall be fully effective, whether or not such
amendment is executed.

                          7.       
If Tenant elects to exercise a Right of Refusal, the applicable Refusal Premises
(and Additional Preferential Premises, if applicable) shall be subject to all of
the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease except that (a) Base Rental
payable by Tenant with respect to the Refusal Premises (and Additional Refusal
Premises, if applicable) shall be the Base Rental set forth in the Lease
Proposal, (b) the Term of the Lease as to the Refusal Premises (and any
Additional Refusal Premises) shall be the term set forth in the Lease Proposal,
(c) the applicable Refusal Premises shall be provided in its then existing
condition (on an “as-is” basis), broom clean and free of any prior tenant’s
personal property at the time Landlord delivers such Refusal Premises to Tenant,
without any obligation on the part of Landlord to furnish, install, or modify
any leasehold improvements or to provide any allowance or credit therefor,
except to the extent provided in the Lease Proposal, and (d) Tenant’s obligation
to pay Rent for the applicable Refusal Premises (and Additional Refusal
Premises, if applicable) shall commence on the date (the “Refusal Rental
Commencement Date”) set forth in the Lease Proposal. 

                          8.       
If Landlord does not receive written notice from Tenant of its exercise of the
Right of Refusal within said five (5) day period, Landlord shall have a period
of one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter to lease the applicable Refusal
Premises on any terms or conditions it desires to one or more tenants. If
Landlord does not lease all of such Refusal Premises within said one hundred
eighty (180) day period, Tenant shall have a Right of Refusal on any subsequent
leasing of such unleased Refusal Premises on the terms set forth above. 

                          9.       
Upon request of Landlord at any time after the Refusal Rental Commencement Date,
Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an amendment to the Lease (in a
form provided by Landlord) specifying (a) the Refusal Rental Commencement Date,
(b) the Base Rental schedule for the Refusal Premises (and Additional
Preferential Premises, if applicable), and (c) the number of square feet of Net
Rentable Area of such Refusal Premises (and Additional Refusal Premises, if
applicable). 

15 

                          10.     
The Right of Refusal is subject and subordinate to (i) any and all expansion
options, refusal rights, preferential rights and renewal options of existing
tenants of the Building (and their assignees) and future tenant(s) of the
Refusal Premises for which Tenant did not exercise Right of Refusal, and (ii)
the renewal of the lease of any existing or future tenant whether made pursuant
to its lease or otherwise. 

                          11.     
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, Tenant shall
not have the right to assign the Right of Refusal to any subtenant or assignee,
and no subtenant or assignee may exercise the Right of Refusal, provided any
Permitted Affiliate that is an assignee of Tenant’s entire interest in the Lease
permitted under Section 5.4 of the Lease shall have the same rights as Tenant to
exercise the Right of Refusal under this Exhibit. In addition, the Right of
Refusal shall automatically terminate if Tenant assigns the Lease or subleases
any portion of the Leased Premises to other than a Permitted Affiliate.

of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has the requisite corporate power and

Each of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be executed and delivered
by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement have been duly authorized, executed
and delivered by the Borrower and are valid and binding obligations of the
Borrower, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms,
except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent transfer, moratorium, reorganization or other laws from
time to time in effect which affect creditors’ rights generally and by general
principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in
a proceeding in equity or at law). Borrower has not taken any steps, and does
not currently expect to take any steps, to seek protection pursuant to any
bankruptcy or similar law nor does Borrower have any Knowledge or reason to
believe that its creditors intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy or similar
proceedings.

schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it
under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section
13(a) or 15(d) thereof, or on a voluntary basis as though such documents had been required to be filed under these provisions, for the
two years preceding the date hereof (or such shorter period as the Borrower was

being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Reports”) on a timely
basis or has received a valid extension of such time of filing and has filed any
such SEC Reports prior to the expiration of any such extension. As of their
respective dates, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the
requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, and none
of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material
fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The consolidated
financial statements of Borrower included in the SEC Reports (the “Financial
Statements”) comply in all material respects with applicable accounting
requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in
effect at the time of filing. The Financial Statements have been prepared in
accordance with GAAP (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in the Financial
Statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim
statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or
summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial
position of Borrower on a consolidated basis as of and for the dates thereof and
the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in
the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit
adjustments. 

3 

e.   
 Liabilities. There are no material liabilities of
Borrower, whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise, which arose or
relate to any transaction of Borrower or any Subsidiary, their agents or
servants occurring prior to the period covered by the Financial Statements which
are not disclosed by or reflected in the Financial Statements. To the Knowledge
of Borrower, there are no circumstances, conditions, happenings, events or
arrangements, contractual or otherwise, which may hereafter give rise to
liabilities, except in the normal course of business of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries. 

f.    
Material Changes; Undisclosed Events, Liabilities or Developments.

event, occurrence or development that has had or that could reasonably be

development has occurred or exists or is reasonably expected to occur or exist

cause a Material Adverse Effect.

withholding, profits, franchise, occupation, property, sales, use, gross
receipts and other taxes (including any interest or penalties relating thereto)

returns of any kind required to be filed have been filed and the taxes paid.

licenses or other approvals required of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct its

in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 

4 

i.    
Compliance. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary: (i) is in default

Borrower or any Subsidiary under), nor has Borrower or any Subsidiary received
notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any

insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses
and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in
which Borrower or a Subsidiary, as applicable, is engaged. Neither Borrower nor
any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its
existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business without a significant increase in cost. 

k.    
Litigation. There are no actions, suits, arbitrations, regulatory

investigations pending or, to the Knowledge of Borrower, threatened by or

such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation. 

l.    
Labor Relations. No material labor dispute exists or, to the
knowledge of Borrower, is imminent with respect to any of the employees of
Borrower or any Subsidiary, which could reasonably be expected to result in or
cause a Material Adverse Effect. None of Borrower or any Subsidiary’s employees
is a member of a union that relates to such employee’s relationship with
Borrower or a Subsidiary, and neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary is a party to
a collective bargaining agreement, and Borrower reasonably believes that their
relationship with their employees is good. No executive officer, to the
Knowledge of Borrower, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any
material term of any employment or consulting contract, confidentiality,
disclosure or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or
any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant in favor of any
third party, and the continued employment or engagement of each such executive
officer does not subject either Borrower or any Subsidiary to any liability with
respect to any of the foregoing matters. Each of Borrower and the Subsidiaries is in material compliance with
all U.S. federal, state, and local laws, all applicable foreign laws, and all
U.S. and foreign regulations relating to employment and employment practices,
terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where the failure
to be in compliance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have or cause a Material Adverse Effect. 

5 

m.    
Material Contracts. Excepting the Loan Documents, the SEC Reports set
forth true, complete and correct lists of every Material Contract currently in
effect to which the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries is a party. Each of the
Material Contracts is in full force and effect and there is not now and there
has not been claimed or alleged by any Person with respect to any of the
Material Contracts, any existing default, or event that with notice or lapse of
time or both would constitute a default or event of default, on the part of the
Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries or on the part of any other party thereto;
no consent from, or notice to, any Governmental Authority or other Person is
required in order to maintain in full force and effect any of the Material
Contracts, other than such consents that have been obtained and are in full
force and effect. 

n.    
Regulatory Permits. Borrower and SCM Subsidiary possess all
certificates, authorizations and Permits issued by the appropriate federal,
state, local or foreign regulatory authorities, including the EIS, necessary to
conduct its business as described in the SEC Reports, except where the failure
to possess such Permits could not reasonably be expected to result in or cause a
Material Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”), and neither Borrower nor
any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation
or modification of any Material Permit. 

o.    
Title to Assets. Each of Borrower and the Subsidiaries has good and
marketable title in fee simple to all real property owned by it and good and
marketable title in all personal property owned by it that is material to the
business of Borrower or any Subsidiary, as applicable, in each case free and
clear of all Liens, except for Liens as do not materially affect the value of
such property and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to
be made of such property by such entity and Liens for the payment of federal,
state or other taxes, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to
penalties. Any real property and facilities held under lease by either Borrower
or any Subsidiary are held by it under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases
with which such entity is in compliance. 

p.    
Mining Interests. The Borrower, though SCM Subsidiary, holds Good and
Defensible Title to the Cerro Blanco Project. Neither the Borrower nor SCM
Subsidiary is in material breach or default (and no situation exists which with
the passing of time or giving of notice would give rise to such a breach or
default) of SCM Subsidiary’s obligations under any of the Cerro Blanco Basic
Documents, and no breach or default by any other party to any Cerro Blanco Basic
Document (or situation which with the passage of time or giving of notice would
give rise to such a breach or default) exists, to the extent such breach or
default (whether by SCM Subsidiary or another party to any Cerro Blanco Basic
Document) could adversely affect any of the interests of SCM Subsidiary in and
to the Cerro Blanco Project. All conditions necessary to maintain the Cerro
Blanco Basic Documents in force have been duly performed. To the Knowledge of
Borrower, no delinquent unpaid bills or past due charges exist for any labor and
materials incurred by or on behalf of the Borrower or SCM Subsidiary related to
the exploration, development or operation of the Cerro Blanco Project. No suit,
action or proceeding (including, without limitation, tax or environmental
demands proceedings) is pending or threatened, which might result in material
impairment or loss of title to any of the interests in the Cerro Blanco Project
or the material value thereof. 

q.    
Survival of Representations and Warranties. Borrower understands and
agrees that Lender, without independent investigation, is relying upon the above
representations and warranties in making the Loan to Borrower. Borrower further
agrees that the foregoing representations and warranties shall be continuing in nature and shall remain in full force
and effect in all material respects so long as the Note remains outstanding.

6

validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization with the requisite corporate or partnership or other applicable
power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions

Securities Act. 

c.    
Restricted Securities. The Lender understands that none of the
Securities has been registered pursuant to the Securities Act, or any state
securities act, and thus are “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144
promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act. Accordingly, the undersigned
hereby acknowledges that it is prepared to hold the Securities for an indefinite
period. 

d.    
Investment Purpose. The Lender acknowledges that the Note, the

investment, and not with the present view towards the distribution, assignment,

 Limitations on Resale; Restrictive Legend. The Lender
acknowledges that it will not sell, assign, hypothecate, or otherwise transfer
any rights to, or any interest in, the Securities except (i) pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) in any other
transaction which, in the opinion of counsel acceptable to the Borrower, is
exempt from registration under the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations
of the SEC thereunder. The Lender also acknowledges that an appropriate legend
will be placed upon each of the documents or certificates representing the
Securities stating that they have not been registered under the Securities Act
and setting forth or referring to the restrictions on transferability and sale
thereof. 

f.    
Information. The Lender has been furnished (i) with all requested
materials relating to the business, finances, and operations of the Borrower;

of any documents furnished to the undersigned by the Borrower. Representatives
of the Lender have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the
Borrower and its management and to receive answers concerning the terms and
conditions of this transaction. 

g.

to following documents: (i) the Borrower’s annual report on Form 10-K for the

quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for each of the quarters following the date of
the Annual Report; (iii) the Borrower’s reports on form 8-K filed with the SEC
since the filing of the Annual Report; and (iv) each and every other filing made
by the Borrower with the SEC since the Annual Report. Such persons have relied upon the information
contained therein and have not been furnished any other documents, literature,
memorandum, or prospectus. 

7 

h.    
Knowledge and Experience in Business and Financial Matters. The
parties representing the Lender in this transaction have such knowledge and
experience in business and financial matters that they are capable of evaluating
the risks of the prospective investment in the Borrower, and the financial
capacity of the Borrower is of such proportion that the total amount of the Loan
to the Borrower would not be material when compared with its total financial
capacity. 

5.

that, while this Agreement is in effect, Borrower will, for itself and on behalf
of the Subsidiaries:

any Subsidiary’s properties, income, or profits; provided however, Borrower will
not be required to pay and discharge any such assessment, tax, charge, levy,

faith by appropriate proceedings, and (ii) Borrower shall have established on

Other Remedies. Lender shall have all the rights and remedies
provided in the Loan Documents or available at law, in equity, or otherwise.
Lender shall be privileged and shall have the absolute right to resort to any

other. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender’s rights and
remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently.

10.    
ADDITIONAL STIPULATIONS AND AGREEMENTS OF BORROWER. The following
additional agreements of Borrower and Lender are a part of this Agreement and
pursuant to which Borrower and Lender hereby agrees as follows:

a.    
Amendments. No alteration of or amendment to this Agreement shall be
effective unless given in writing and signed by the Party or Parties sought to
be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.

b.    
Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without
reference to the choice of law principals thereof. The Parties hereto
irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of Utah
located in Salt Lake County and the United States District Court of Utah in any
action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and hereby irrevocably
agree that all claims in respect of such action may be heard and determined in
such state or federal court. The Parties hereto irrevocably waive, to the
fullest extent they may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum
to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The Parties further agree, to
the extent permitted by law, that final and unappealable judgment against any of
them in any action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may
be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by
suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of
the fact and amount of such judgment. To the extent any Party hereto has or
hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any
legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment,
attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or
its property, each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives such immunity
in respect of its obligations under this Agreement. 

15 

c.    
Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM,
SETOFF, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY
PERTAINING OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR IN ANY
WAY CONNECTED WITH OR PERTAINING OR RELATED TO OR INCIDENTAL TO ANY DEALINGS OF
THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS,
OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO OR CONTEMPLATED THEREBY
OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY PARTY’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES THEREUNDER, IN ALL OF THE
FOREGOING CASES WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING
IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. BORROWER AGREES THAT LENDER MAY FILE A COPY OF
THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND
BARGAINED AGREEMENT OF BORROWER IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE ITS RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY
JURY, AND THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY WHATSOEVER BETWEEN BORROWER AND LENDER
SHALL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING
WITHOUT A JURY. BORROWER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION MAY NOT BE
ORALLY WAIVED AND CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF LENDER, INCLUDING
LENDER’S COUNSEL, HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT LENDER WOULD
NOT, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE PROVISIONS
OF THIS PARAGRAPH, AND BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LENDER HAS, IN PART, BEEN
INDUCED TO MAKE THE EXTENSION OF CREDIT EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE IN RELIANCE ON THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH. 

d.    
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Agreement are for
convenience purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the
provisions of this Agreement.

e.    
This Agreement Part of Note. The Note may specifically incorporate
this Agreement by reference and in the event that the Note and/or any of the
other Loan Documents are duly assigned, this Agreement shall be considered
assigned in like manner. In the event of a conflict between any of the
provisions of the Note or any other document evidencing or securing the Loan,
and this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall control unless such
other document results in further or greater protection to Lender, in which case
such document resulting in further or greater protection to Lender shall
control.

f.   
 Exclusiveness. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents are made for the sole protection of Borrower and Lender, and Lender’s
successors and assigns, and no other party shall have any right of action
hereunder.

g.    
Broker’s Commissions. Borrower represents and covenants that it does
not know of a broker which was in any way connected with the Loan. Borrower
agrees to indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against any loss, cost,
liability or expense (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees)
incurred as a result of the enforcement of any claim of a broker’s or finder’s
fee against Lender should these representations prove to be false. 

h.    
Costs, Fees and Expenses. Each Party to this Agreement shall bear and
be financially responsible for its own costs associated with this Agreement, the
other Loan Documents, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including but not
limited to: due diligence costs, and legal expenses for the creation and review
of the Definitive Agreements. 

16 

i.    
Post Judgment Attorney Fees. If the service of an attorney is
required by Lender to enforce a judgment rendered in connection with the Loan,
this Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents, Lender shall be entitled to
its reasonable attorneys’ fees, legal expenses, and costs and such attorneys’
fees, legal expenses and costs shall be recoverable together with its Confession
of Judgment. This provision shall be severable from all other provisions of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, shall survive any judgment, and shall not
be deemed merged into the judgment. 

j.    
Notices. Any notice, demand, request, waiver or other communication
required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement must be in writing
(including electronic format) and will be deemed by the Parties to have been
received (i) upon delivery in person (including by reputable express courier

k.    Severability.
If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement to be
invalid or unenforceable as to any Party, such finding shall not render that
provision invalid or unenforceable as to any other Persons. If feasible, any
such offending provision shall be deemed to be modified to be within the limits
of enforceability or validity; however, if the offending provision cannot be so
modified, it shall be stricken and all other provisions of this Agreement in all
other respects shall remain valid and enforceable.

l.   
 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements
contained by or on behalf of Borrower shall bind its successors and assigns and
shall inure to the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns. Borrower shall
not, however, have the right to assign its rights under this Agreement or any
interest therein, without the prior written consent of Lender.

m.    
Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding
between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all negotiations, representations, prior discussions, and preliminary
agreements, including Summary of Terms dated March 4, 2016, between the Parties
hereto relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. 

n.    
Survival. All warranties, representations, and covenants made by
Borrower in this Agreement or in any certificate or other instrument delivered
by Borrower to Lender under this Agreement shall be considered to have been
relied upon by Lender and will survive the making of the Loan and delivery to
Lender of the Loan Documents, regardless of any investigation made by Lender or
on Lender’s behalf.

o.    
Time Is of the Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance of
this Agreement and the obligations created hereby.

p.   
 Waiver. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any
rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall
operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of a
provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of
Lender’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any
other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of
dealing between Lender and Borrower, shall constitute a waiver of any of
Lender’s rights or of any obligations of Borrower as to any future transactions.
Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Agreement, the granting of
such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent
in subsequent instances where such consent is required, and in all cases such
consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.

q.   
 Extension or Renewal. Borrower and Lender agree that, by
mutual consent evidenced by a written instrument, this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, from time to time, may be extended or renewed in whole or in
part, and the rate of interest thereon may be changed, or fees in consideration
of loan extensions imposed, and any related right or security thereby waived,
exchanged, surrendered or otherwise dealt with, and any of the acts mentioned in
the Note may be done, all without affecting the liability (except as set forth
therein) of Borrower and all other obligors, endorsers, and co-makers under this
Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents. 

18 

r.    
Governing Language. This Agreement has been prepared in the English
language and the English language shall control its interpretation. All
consents, notices, reports and other written documents to be delivered or
provided by a Party under this Agreement shall be in the English language,
unless otherwise agreed by the receiving Party, and in the event of any conflict
between the provisions of any document and the English language translation
thereof, the terms of the English language translation shall control. 

s.    
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be an original,
but such counterparts shall, together, constitute one and the same instrument.
This Agreement, the other Loan Agreements, and each other agreement or
instrument entered into in connection herewith or therewith or contemplated
hereby or thereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed
and delivered by means of a photographic, photostatic, facsimile or similar
reproduction of such signed writing using a facsimile machine or e-mail shall be
treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and
shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the
original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any Party
hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other Party hereto or
thereto shall reexecute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other
Parties. No Party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the
use of a facsimile machine or e-mail to deliver a signature or the fact that any
signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the
use of a facsimile machine or e-mail as a defense to the formation or
enforceability of a contract and each such Party forever waives any such
defense. 

t.    
Currency. Unless otherwise stated, all dollars specified in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents are in U.S. dollars. 

u.    
Computation of Time Periods; Other Definitional Provisions. In this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents in the computation of periods of time
from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and
including” and the words “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding”.
References in the Loan Documents to any agreement or contract “as amended” shall
mean and be a reference to such agreement or contract as amended, amended and
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance
with its terms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed
to be followed by the words “without limitation” or words of similar import, and
all references herein to sections, exhibits and schedules shall be deemed
references to sections, exhibits and schedules of this Agreement, unless the
context shall otherwise require. 

v.

annexed hereto and is incorporated herein by this reference and expressly made a
part hereof. The following exhibits are attached to this Agreement: 

	Exhibit A 	Use of Proceeds Budget

	Exhibit C 	Certificate of Designations for Series A
      Preferred Stock 
	Exhibit D 	Common Stock Purchase Warrant 
	Exhibit E 	Registration Rights Agreement 
	Exhibit F 	Development Assignment

w.    
Representation of Counsel. Notwithstanding any rule or maxim of
construction to the contrary, any ambiguity or uncertainty with respect to the
provisions of this Agreement or their interpretation or application shall not be
construed against either Borrower or Lender based upon authorship of any of the
provisions hereof. Borrower and Lender each hereby warrants, represents and certifies to the other as follows: (a) that the contents of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been completely and carefully
read by the representing Party and counsel for the representing Party; (b) that
the representing Party has been separately represented by counsel and the
