together with interest on the principal balance outstanding hereunder, from (and including) the date of disbursement until (but
not including) the date of payment, at a per annum rate equal to the Stated Interest Rate specified below or, to the extent applicable,
the Default Interest Rate specified below, in accordance with the following terms and conditions:

 

1.                 
Contracted For Rate of Interest. The contracted for rate of interest of the indebtedness
evidenced hereby, without limitation, shall consist of the following:

(a)               
The Stated Interest Rate (as hereinafter defined), as from time to time in effect, calculated daily on the basis of actual
days elapsed over a 360-day year, applied to the principal balance from time to time outstanding hereunder; and

(b)              
The Default Interest Rate (as hereinafter defined), as from time to time in effect, calculated daily on the basis of actual
days elapsed over a 360-day year, applied to the principal balance from time to time outstanding hereunder.

The Borrower agrees
to pay an effective contracted for rate of interest which is the sum of the Stated Interest Rate referred to in Subsection 1(a)
above, plus any additional rate of interest resulting from the application of the Default Interest Rate referred to in Subsection
1(b) above.

2.                 
Stated Interest Rate. Except as provided in Section 3 below, the principal
balance outstanding hereunder from time to time shall bear interest at the Stated Interest Rate. The “Stated Interest
Rate” shall be equal to 15% per annum.

3.                 
Default Interest Rate. The “Default Interest Rate” shall be
a per annum rate equal to the Stated Interest Rate plus five percentage points. The principal balance outstanding hereunder from
time to time shall bear interest at the Default Interest Rate from the date of the occurrence of an Event of Default (as hereinafter
defined) hereunder until the earlier of: (a) the date on which the principal balance outstanding hereunder, together with all accrued
interest and other amounts payable hereunder, are paid in full; or (b) the date on which such Event of Default is timely cured
in a manner satisfactory to Lender, (i) if Borrower is specifically granted a right to cure such Event of Default in any of the
Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) if no such right to cure is specifically granted, then Lender, in its sole and
absolute discretion, permits such Event of Default to be cured.

4.                 
Payments. This Note shall be payable as follows:

(a)               
Interest. Accrued and unpaid interest at the Stated Interest Rate or, to the extent applicable, the Default Interest
Rate, shall begin to accrue on the date hereof and be payable on the date set forth in Subsection 4(b) below for payment
of the principal balance outstanding hereunder.

(b)              
Principal. The principal balance outstanding hereunder, together with all accrued interest and other amounts payable
hereunder, if not sooner paid as provided herein, shall be due and payable on or before June 1, 2014.

(c)               
Late Charge. If Lender has not received the full amount of any payment by the end of ten (10) business days after
the date it is due under this Note, the Borrower will pay a late charge to Lender in the amount of 5% of the overdue payment.
The Borrower will pay this late charge only once on any late payment. This late charge shall not apply to payments due by acceleration.

    	 

    	 

    

5.                 
Application and Place of Payments. Payments received by Lender with respect to
the indebtedness evidenced hereby shall be applied in such order and manner as Lender in its sole and absolute discretion may elect.
Unless otherwise elected by Lender, all such payments shall first be applied to accrued and unpaid interest at the Stated Interest
Rate and, to the extent applicable, the Default Interest Rate, next to the principal balance then outstanding hereunder, and the
remainder to other costs or added charges provided for herein or in any of the Loan Documents. Payments hereunder shall be made
at the address for Lender first set forth above, or at such other address as Lender may specify to Borrower in writing.

6.                 
Prepayments. Payments of principal hereof may be made at any time, or from time
to time, in whole or in part, without penalty, provided that all previously matured interest and other charges accrued to the date
of prepayment are also paid in full. Notwithstanding any partial prepayment of principal hereof, there will be no change in the
due date or amount of scheduled payments due hereunder unless Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, agrees in writing to
such change.

7.                 
Cure Period. Except as provided below, any Event of Default, other than non-payment,
may be cured within thirty (30) days after written notice of such Event of Default is mailed to Borrower by Lender.

8.                 
Events of Default; Acceleration. The occurrence of any one or more of the following
events shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder, and upon such Event of Default, the entire principal
balance outstanding hereunder, together with all accrued interest and other amounts payable hereunder, at the election of Lender,
shall become immediately due and payable, without any notice to Borrower:

(l)Any disclosure
by the Borrower to any person or entity, the terms, conditions or other facts, including, but not limited to, the identity of Lender,

such information to his accountants, attorneys or consultants who have a need to know such information regarding this Note or the
Loan Documents.

9.                 
Additional Default. Any default of Borrower’s obligations under this Note or any other promissory
note by and between Borrower and Lender (as original lender or holder) shall also constitute an Event of Default under both that
certain Financing and Security Agreement by and between Lender and Borrower in the principal amount of $1,500,000 dated as of May
20, 2013, and under that certain Secured Convertible Promissory Note with the same date thereof and executed pursuant thereto (collectively,
the “Loan Documents”).

10.             
Additional Sums. All fees, charges, goods, things in action or any other sums or
things of value, other than the interest resulting from the Stated Interest Rate, and the Default Interest Rate, as applicable,
paid or payable by the Borrower (collectively, the “Additional Sums”), whether pursuant to this Note, the Loan
Documents or any other document or instrument in any way pertaining to this lending transaction, or otherwise with respect to this
lending transaction, that, under the laws of the State of Arizona, may be deemed to be interest with respect to this lending transaction,
for the purpose of any laws of the State of Arizona that may limit the maximum amount of interest to be charged with respect to
this lending transaction, shall be payable by the Borrower as, and shall be deemed to be, additional interest, and for such purposes
only, the agreed upon and “contracted for rate of interest” of this lending transaction shall be deemed to be increased
by the rate of interest resulting from the Additional Sums. The Borrower understands and believes that this lending transaction
complies with the usury laws of the State of Arizona; however, if any interest or other charges in connection with this lending
transaction are ever determined to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law, then the Borrower agrees that: (a) the amount of
interest or charges payable pursuant to this lending transaction shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted by law; and (b)
any excess amount previously collected from the Borrower in connection with this lending transaction that exceeded the maximum
amount permitted by law, will be credited against the principal balance then outstanding hereunder. If the outstanding principal
balance hereunder has been paid in full, the excess amount paid will be refunded to the Borrower.

nonpayment, nonperformance, extension, dishonor, maturity, protest and default; and (c) recourse to guaranty or suretyship defenses
(including, without limitation, the right to require the Lender to bring an action on this Note). Lender may extend the time for

hereunder, and any such extension, renewal, release or other indulgence shall not alter or diminish the liability of the Borrower
or any other person or entity who is or may become liable on this Note except to the extent expressly set forth in a writing evidencing
or constituting such extension, renewal, release or other indulgence.

12.             
Costs of Collection. The Borrower agrees to pay all costs of collection, including,
without limitation, attorneys’ fees, whether or not suit is filed, and all costs of suit and preparation for suit (whether
at trial or appellate level), in the event any payment of principal, interest or other amount is not paid when due, or in case
it becomes necessary to protect the collateral which is security for the indebtedness evidenced hereby, or to exercise any other
right or remedy hereunder or in the Loan Documents, or in the event Lender is made party to any litigation because of the existence
of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, or if at any time Lender should incur any attorneys’ fees in any proceeding under any
federal bankruptcy law (or any similar state or federal law) in connection with the indebtedness evidenced hereby. In the event
of any court proceeding, attorneys’ fees shall be set by the court and not by the jury and shall be included in any judgment
obtained by Lender.

13.             
No Waiver by Lender. No delay or failure of Lender in exercising any right hereunder
shall affect such right, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right preclude further exercise thereof.

or the Loan Documents, or involving any other claims or allegations arising out of the transactions evidenced or contemplated by
this Note or the Loan Documents, regardless of whether such actions or proceedings shall be for damages, specific performance or
declaratory relief or otherwise, such actions, in the sole and absolute discretion of Lender, may be required to be brought in
Maricopa County, Arizona; and each Borrower hereby submits to the jurisdiction of the State of Arizona for such purposes and agrees
that the venue of such actions or proceedings shall properly lie in Maricopa County, Arizona; and each Borrower hereby waives any
and all defenses in such jurisdiction and venue.

control to the extent necessary to resolve such conflict or inconsistency.

Amendments. No amendment, modification, change, waiver, release or discharge hereof
and hereunder shall be effective unless evidenced by an instrument in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement
is sought.

19.             
Severability. If any provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions
