CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
VERITEQ CORP., a DELAWARE corporation (hereinafter called the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order
of POSITIVEID CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, or registered assigns (the “Holder”) the sum of Two Hundred
Twenty-Two Thousand One Hundred Fifteen Dollars and Seven Cents ($222,115.07), on October 20, 2016 (the “Maturity Date”),
and to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof at the rate of ten percent (10%) (the “Interest Rate”) per
annum from the date hereof (the “Issue Date”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or upon acceleration
or by prepayment or otherwise, compounded on a monthly basis.  This Note may not be prepaid in whole or in part except
as otherwise explicitly set forth in Section 1.9 hereof. Any amount of principal or interest on this Note which is not paid when
due shall bear interest at the rate of twenty two percent (22%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid (“Default
Interest”).  Interest shall commence accruing on the Issue Date, shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year
and the actual number of days elapsed.  All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock, (the
“Common Stock”) in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America.  All
payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance
with the provisions of this Note.  Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day
which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the case
of any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall
not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such date.  As used in this Note,
the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the
city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.  Each capitalized term
used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain GlucoChip and Settlement Agreement
dated the date hereof, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the “Letter Agreement”).

 

    	1

    	 

    

  

This Note is free from
all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other
similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.

 

The following terms
shall apply to this Note:

 

ARTICLE I. CONVERSION RIGHTS

 

1.1           Conversion
Right.  The Holder shall have the right from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on 190 days
after the date of this Note and ending on the later of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount
(as defined in Article III) pursuant to Section 1.6(a) or Article III, each in respect of the remaining outstanding principal amount
of this Note to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable
shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the
Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price  (the “Conversion
Price”) determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); provided, however, that in no event shall
the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the
sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common
Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or
unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations
contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect
to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates
of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.  For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding
sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such
proviso, provided, further, however, that the limitations on conversion may be waived by the Holder upon,
at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Borrower and the provisions of the conversion limitation
shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in
such notice of waiver).  The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be
determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified
in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the
Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 1.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile (or
by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York
time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”).  The term “Conversion Amount” means, with
respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus
(2) at the Borrower’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided
in this Note to the Conversion Date, provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to pay any or all interest in cash
plus (3) at the Borrower’s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding
clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder’s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and
1.4(g) hereof.

 

    	2

    	 

    

  

1.2           Conversion
Price.

 

(a)          Calculation
of Conversion Price.  The conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall be the Variable Conversion
Price (as defined herein)(subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower
relating to the Borrower’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization,
reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events).  The “Variable Conversion Price”
shall mean a 40% Discount from the average of the three (3) lowest daily Trading Prices in the ten (10) Trading Days prior
to the day that the Holder requests conversion. “Trading Price”
means, for any security as of any date, the lowest trading price on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, or applicable trading
market (the “OTCQB”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) mutually acceptable
to Borrower and Holder (i.e. Bloomberg). If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner
provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the holders of a majority
in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion
Price of such Notes.  “Trading Day” shall
mean any day on which the Common Stock is traded for any period on the OTCQB, or on the principal securities exchange or other
securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded. If the Issuer’s Common stock is chilled for deposit
at DTC and/or becomes chilled at any point while this Agreement remains outstanding, an additional 8% discount will be attributed
to the Conversion Price defined hereof. If the Borrower is unable to issue any shares under this provision due to the fact
that there is an insufficient number of authorized and unissued shares available, the Holder promises not to force the Borrower
to issue these shares or trigger an Event of Default, provided that Borrower takes immediate steps required to get the appropriate
level of approval from shareholders or the board of directors, where applicable to raise the number of authorized shares to satisfy
the Notice of Conversion.

 

If the Company shall
fail to provide an irrevocable transfer agent instruction letter in an amount equal to the Reserved Amount (as defined in Section
1.3) by December 31, 2014, the Convertible note shall carry a 10% penalty which will be added to the principal amount hereof, provided
however, that such penalty will not apply if the Company files a proxy to effect an increase in its authorized stock and such proxy
is reviewed by the SEC.

 

    	3

    	 

    

  

(b)           Conversion
Price During Major Announcements.  Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 1.2(a) to the contrary, in the event
the Borrower (i) makes a public announcement that it intends to consolidate or merge with any other corporation (other than a merger
in which the Borrower is the surviving or continuing corporation and its capital stock is unchanged) or sell or transfer all or
substantially all of the assets of the Borrower or (ii) any person, group or entity (including the Borrower) publicly announces
a tender offer to purchase 50% or more of the Borrower’s Common Stock (or any other takeover scheme) (the date of the announcement
referred to in clause (i) or (ii) is hereinafter referred to as the  “Announcement Date”), then the Conversion
Price shall, effective upon the Announcement Date and continuing through the Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date (as defined
below), be equal to the lower of (x) the Conversion Price which would have been applicable for a Conversion occurring on the Announcement
Date and (y) the Conversion Price that would otherwise be in effect. From and after the Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date,
the Conversion Price shall be determined as set forth in this Section 1.2(a).  For purposes hereof,  “Adjusted
Conversion Price Termination Date” shall mean, with respect to any proposed transaction or tender offer (or takeover scheme)
for which a public announcement as contemplated by this Section 1.2(b) has been made, the date upon which the Borrower (in the
case of clause (i) above) or the person, group or entity (in the case of clause (ii) above) consummates or publicly announces the
termination or abandonment of the proposed transaction or tender offer (or takeover scheme) which caused this Section 1.2(b) to
become operative.

 

1.3           Authorized
Shares.  The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from
its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance
of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note issued pursuant to the Letter Agreement.  The Borrower is required
at all times to have authorized and reserved two times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion of the
Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Notes in effect from time to time) (the “Reserved Amount”).  
Following the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock as discussed in Section 1.2(a), the Borrower will provide
an irrevocable reserve letter, signed by the transfer agent, for the benefit of the holder to maintain such Reserved Amount at
any time requested by the Holder, but not more often than once a month. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares
will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities
or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall
be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter
there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion
of the outstanding Notes.  The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue
certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall
constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and
issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.

 

If, at any time during
which the conversion right exists the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default
under Section 3.2 of the Note.

 

1.4           Method
of Conversion.

 

(a)           Mechanics
of Conversion.  Subject to Section 1.1, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time
from time to time after 190 days after the Issue Date, by : (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile,
e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time)
and (B) subject to Section 1.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower.

 

    	4

    	 

    

  

(b)           Surrender
of Note Upon Conversion.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note
in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless
the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted.  The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records
showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory
to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.  In the
event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Borrower shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative
in the absence of manifest error.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid,
the Holder may not transfer this Note unless the Holder first physically surrenders this Note to the Borrower, whereupon the Borrower
will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Holder (upon payment
by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount
of this Note.  The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the
provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this
Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

(c)           Payment
of Taxes.  The Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other
than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other
securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such
shares are to be held for the Holder’s account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Borrower the amount
of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax has been paid.

 

(d)           Delivery
of Common Stock Upon Conversion.  Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail
(or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this
Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates
for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt ( but in any event the fifth
(5th) business day being hereinafter referred to as the “Deadline”) (and, solely in the case of conversion
of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of the this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(e)           Obligation
of Borrower to Deliver Common Stock.  Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be
deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount
of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its
obligations under this Article I, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate
except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion.  If
the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the
certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce
the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action
to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or
any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation
to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the
Holder in connection with such conversion.  The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion
Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is received by the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.

 

    	5

    	 

    

  

(f)           Delivery
of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer.  In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)
Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions
contained in Section 1.1 and in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically
transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC
through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system.

 

(g)           Failure
to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline.  Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other
remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline (other than a failure due to the circumstances described in Section 1.3
above, which failure shall be governed by such Section) the Borrower shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to (i) the
Cover Cost minus (ii) the Sale Proceeds. “Sale Proceeds” shall mean, from time to time, the net proceeds, if any, received
by Holder for selling the Common Stock related to such conversion notice, once they are ultimately delivered, , and “Cover
Cost” shall mean the net cost to Holder had it received if the Borrower had timely delivered the Common Stock.   Such
cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option
of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall
be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this
Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The
Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate,
interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly the parties acknowledge that the
liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 1.4(g) are justified.

 

1.5           Concerning
the Shares.  The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless  (i)
such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall
have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions
of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant
to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or
a successor rule) (“Rule 144”) or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule
144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an
Accredited Investor (as defined in the Letter Agreement). Until such time as the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of this Note have been registered under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the
number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant
to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in
the following form, as appropriate:

 

    	6

    	 

    

  

“NEITHER THE ISSUANCE
AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  THE SECURITIES MAY
NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN
A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE
144A UNDER SAID ACT.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN
ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”

 

The legend set forth
above shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if (i)
the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions
of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration
under the Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected or (ii) in the case of the
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration
statement filed under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities
as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold. In the event that the Company does not accept the opinion of counsel
provided by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144
or Regulations S, at the Deadline, it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Note.

 

1.6           Effect
of Certain Events.

 

(a)           Effect
of Merger, Consolidation, Etc.  At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which
more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of
the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall either:  (i)
be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the
Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article
III) or (ii) be treated pursuant to Section 1.6(b) hereof.  “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation,
limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.

 

    	7

    	 

    

 

(b)           Adjustment
Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc.  If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion
of all of the Notes, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar
event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares
of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all
or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower,
then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the
terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion,
such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted
in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such
case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the
provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares
issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities
or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof.  The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described
in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, thirty (30) days prior written notice (but in any
event at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or
if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization
or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting
successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Section 1.6(b).  The
above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.

 

(c)           Adjustment
Due to Distribution.  If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire
its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any
dividend or distribution to the Borrower’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock
of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a “Distribution”), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion
of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such
assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had
such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to
such Distribution.

 

(d)           Adjustment
Due to Dilutive Issuance.  If, at any time when any Notes are issued and outstanding, the Borrower issues or sells,
or in accordance with this Section 1.6(d) hereof is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock in connection with
a Subsequent Placement for no consideration or for a consideration per share (before deduction of reasonable expenses or commissions
or underwriting discounts or allowances in connection therewith) based on a variable price formula (the “Alternative Variable
Price Formula”) that is more favorable to the investor in such Subsequent Placement than the Variable Conversion Price in
effect on the date of such issuance (or deemed issuance) of such shares of Common Stock (a “Dilutive Issuance”), then
immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the Variable Conversion Price will be adjusted to match the Alternative Variable Price
Formula. If it is unclear whether the Alternative Variable Price Formula is better or worse, then Holder, in its sole discretion,
may elect at the time of such issuance whether to switch to the Alternative Variable Price Formula or not. In no event shall the
Conversion Price be above the original Conversion Price. “Subsequent Placement” shall mean a transaction, the primary
purpose of which is a debt or equity financing to raise money for the Borrower.

 

    	8

    	 

    

 

(e)           Purchase
Rights.  If, at any time when any Notes are issued and outstanding, the Borrower issues any convertible securities
or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property (the “Purchase Rights”) pro rata to the record
holders of any class of Common Stock, then the Holder of this Note will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such
Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder could have acquired if such Holder had held the number of shares
of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion contained herein)
immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights or, if no such record
is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase
Rights.

 

(f)           Notice
of Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the
events described in this Section 1.6, the Borrower, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment and
prepare and furnish to the Holder of a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts
upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.  The Borrower shall, upon the written request at any time of the
Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Conversion Price
at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which
at the time would be received upon conversion of the Note.

 

1.7           Trading
Market Limitations.  Unless permitted by the applicable rules and regulations of the principal securities market
on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded, in no event shall the Borrower issue upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant
to this Note and the other Notes issued pursuant to the Letter Agreement more than the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
that the Borrower can issue pursuant to any rule of the principal United States securities market on which the Common Stock is
then traded (the “Maximum Share Amount”), which shall be 9.99% of the total shares outstanding on the date of issuance.  

 

1.8           Status
as Shareholder.  Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by a Holder, (i) the shares covered thereby (other than
the shares, if any, which cannot be issued because their issuance would exceed such Holder’s allocated portion of the Reserved
Amount or Maximum Share Amount) shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Holder’s rights as a Holder
of such converted portion of this Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares
of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure
by the Borrower to comply with the terms  of this Note.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder has not
received certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the tenth (10th) business day after the expiration of the Deadline
with respect to a conversion of any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless the Holder otherwise elects to retain its
status as a holder of Common Stock by so notifying the Borrower) the Holder shall regain the rights of a Holder of this Note with
respect to such unconverted portions of this Note and the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted Note
to the Holder or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of this Note has not been
converted.  In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies (including, without limitation, (i)
the right to receive Conversion Default Payments pursuant to Section 1.3 to the extent required thereby for such Conversion Default
and any subsequent Conversion Default and (ii) the right to have the Conversion Price with respect to subsequent conversions determined
in accordance with Section 1.3) for the Borrower’s failure to convert this Note.

1.9           Prepayment.  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Note, so long as the Borrower has not received a Notice of Conversion from the Holder,
then at any time, the Borrower shall have the right, exercisable on not less than three (3) Trading Days prior written notice to
the Holder of the Note to prepay the outstanding Note (principal and accrued interest), in full, in accordance with this Section
1.9. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “Optional Prepayment Notice”) shall be delivered to the Holder of the Note
at its registered address and shall state: (1) that the Borrower is exercising its right to prepay the Note, and (2) the date of
prepayment. On the date fixed for prepayment (the “Optional Prepayment Date”), the Borrower shall make payment of the
Optional Prepayment Amount (as defined below) to or upon the order of the Holder as specified by the Holder in writing to the Borrower
at least one (1) business day prior to the Optional Prepayment Date. If the Borrower exercises its right to prepay the Note, the
Borrower shall make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash (the “Optional Prepayment Amount”) equal to the sum
of: (w) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal
amount of this Note to the Optional Prepayment Date plus (y) Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in clauses
(w) and (x) plus (z) any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and 1.4(g) hereof. If the Borrower delivers
and Optional Prepayment Notice and fails to pay the Optional Prepayment Amount due to the Holder of the Note within two (2) business
days following the Optional Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall forever forfeit its right to prepay the Note pursuant to this Section
1.9. If, at any time prior to 190 days from the date hereof, Borrower requests that Holder sell this Note to a purchaser for an
amount equal to the Optional Prepayment Amount, Holder shall agree to such sale and accept the Optional Prepayment Amount as full
consideration therefor, so long as payment is made in full by the purchaser prior to the 191st day.

and payable and the Borrower shall pay to the Holder, in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to the
greater of (i) 150% times the sum of (w) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued
and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note to the date of payment (the “Mandatory Prepayment Date”)
plus (y) Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in clauses (w) and/or (x) plus (z) any amounts owed
to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and 1.4(g) hereof (the then outstanding principal amount of this Note to the date of payment
plus the amounts referred to in clauses (x), (y) and (z) shall collectively be known as the “Default Sum”) or
(ii) the “parity value” of the Default Sum to be prepaid, where parity value means (a) the highest number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to such Default Sum in accordance with Article I, treating the
Trading Day immediately preceding the Mandatory Prepayment Date as the “Conversion Date” for purposes of determining
the lowest applicable Conversion Price, unless the Default Event arises as a result of such breach in respect of a specific Conversion
Date in which case such Conversion Date shall be the Conversion Date, multiplied by (b) the highest Closing Price for the
Common Stock during the period beginning on the date of first occurrence of the Event of Default and ending one day prior to the
Mandatory Prepayment Date (the “Default Amount”) and all other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due
and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including,
without limitation, legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies
available at low or in equity.

 

    	14

    	 

    

  

If the Borrower fails to pay the Default
Amount within five (5) business days of written notice that such amount is due and payable, then the Holder shall have the right
at any time, so long as the Borrower remains in default (and so long and to the extent that there are sufficient authorized shares),
to require the Borrower, upon written notice, to immediately issue, in lieu of the Default Amount, the number of shares of Common
Stock of the Borrower equal to the Default Amount divided by the Conversion Price then in effect.

 

ARTICLE IV. MISCELLANEOUS

 

4.1           Failure
or Indulgence Not Waiver.  No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude

are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

4.3           Amendments.  This
Note and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and the Holder.  The
term “Note” and all reference thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this instrument (and the other
Notes issued pursuant to the Letter Agreement) as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented, then as so amended
or supplemented.

 

4.4           Assignability.  This
Note shall be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to be the benefit of the Holder and its
successors and assigns.  Each transferee of this Note must be an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule
501(a) of the 1933 Act).  Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, this Note may be pledged as collateral
in connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending arrangement.

 

4.5           Cost

collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

 

4.6          Post-Closing
Expenses. The Issuer will bear any and all miscellaneous expenses that may arise as a result of this Agreement post-closing.
These expenses include, but are not limited to, the cost of legal opinion production from its counsel, transfer agent fees, equity
issuance fees, etc. The failure to pay any and all Post-Closing Expenses will be deemed a default as described in Section 2.6.10
herein.

 

4.6           Governing
Law.  This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida without regard
to principles of conflicts of laws.  Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions
contemplated by this Note shall be brought only in the state courts of Florida or in the federal courts located in the state and
county of Palm Beach.  The parties to this Note hereby irrevocably waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any
action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non
conveniens.  The Borrower and Holder waive trial by jury.  The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees and costs.  In the event that any provision of this Note or any other
agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision
shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute
or rule of law.  Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.   Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service
of process and consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery)
to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good
and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any
right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

 

    	16

    	 

    

  

4.7           Certain
Amounts.  Whenever pursuant to this Note the Borrower is required to pay an amount in excess of the outstanding principal
amount (or the portion thereof required to be paid at that time) plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Default Interest on such
interest, the Borrower and the Holder agree that the actual damages to the Holder from the receipt of cash payment on this Note
may be difficult to determine and the amount to be so paid by the Borrower represents stipulated damages and not a penalty and
is intended to compensate the Holder in part for loss of the opportunity to convert this Note and to earn a return from the sale
of shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of this Note at a price in excess of the price paid for such shares pursuant
to this Note.  The Borrower and the Holder hereby agree that such amount of stipulated damages is not plainly disproportionate
to the possible loss to the Holder from the receipt of a cash payment without the opportunity to convert this Note into shares
of Common Stock.

 

4.8           GlucoChip
and Settlement Agreement.  By its acceptance of this Note, each party agrees to be bound by the applicable terms
of the GlucoChip and Settlement Agreement (also referred to herein as the Letter Agreement).

 

4.9           Notice
of Corporate Events.  Except as otherwise provided below, the Holder of this Note shall have no rights as a Holder
of Common Stock unless and only to the extent that it converts this Note into Common Stock. The Borrower shall provide the Holder
with prior notification of any meeting of the Borrower’s shareholders (and copies of proxy materials and other information
sent to shareholders).  In the event of any taking by the Borrower of a record of its shareholders for the purpose of
determining shareholders who are entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, any right to subscribe for,
purchase or otherwise acquire (including by way of merger, consolidation, reclassification or recapitalization) any share of any
class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or for the purpose of determining shareholders who are
entitled to vote in connection with any proposed sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower
or any proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Borrower, the Borrower shall mail a notice to the Holder, at least
twenty (20) days prior to the record date specified therein (or thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of the transaction or
event, whichever is earlier), of the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution,
right or other event, and a brief statement regarding the amount and character of such dividend, distribution, right or other event
to the extent known at such time.  The Borrower shall make a public announcement of any event requiring notification
to the Holder hereunder substantially simultaneously with the notification to the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Section
4.9.

 

4.10         Remedies.  The
Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder, by vitiating
the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby.  Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the remedy
at law for a breach of its obligations under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach
by the Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies
at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing
or curing any breach of this Note and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing
economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

 

    	17

    	 

    

  

4.11         Severability.
If any provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect, and if any
provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances.
If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder shall violate applicable laws governing usury,
the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum permitted rate of interest. The
Borrower covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner
whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive
the Borrower from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein, wherever enacted,
now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this indenture, and the Borrower
(to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it
will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impeded the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will
suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been enacted.

for its own account and not with a present view towards the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered
or exempted from registration under the 1933 Act; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, Holder
does not agree to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Securities
at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act.

 

5.2          Accredited
Investor Status. Holder is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D (an
“Accredited Investor”).

 

5.3          Reliance
on Exemptions. Holder understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions
from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the
truth and accuracy of, and Holder’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings
of Holder set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of Holder to acquire the
Securities.

 

5.4          Information.
Holder and its advisors have been, and for so long as this Note remains outstanding will continue to be, furnished with all materials
relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities
which have been requested by Holder or its advisors. Holder and its advisors have been, and for so long as this Note remains outstanding
will continue to be, afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company has not
disclosed to Holder any material nonpublic information and will not disclose such information unless such information is disclosed
to the public prior to or promptly following such disclosure to Holder. 

 

5.5          Governmental
Review. Holder understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has
passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.

5.6          Transfer
or Re-sale. Holder understands that (i) the sale or resale of the Securities has not been and is not being registered under
the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws, and the Securities may not be transferred unless (a) the Securities are sold
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, (b) Holder shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of
counsel that shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions to the effect that
the Securities to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration, which opinion
shall be accepted by the Company, (c) the Securities are sold or transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule
144 promulgated under the 1933 Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”)) of Holder who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer
the Securities only in accordance with this Section 2(f) and who is an Accredited Investor, (d) the Securities are sold pursuant
to Rule 144, or (e) the Securities are sold pursuant to Regulation S under the 1933 Act (or a successor rule) (“Regulation
S”), and Holder shall have delivered to the Company, at the cost of Holder, an opinion of counsel that shall be in form,
substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in corporate transactions, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company;
(ii) any sale of such Securities made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of said Rule and further,
if said Rule is not applicable, any re-sale of such Securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom
the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act) may require compliance with some
other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (iii) neither the Company nor any other
person is under any obligation to register such Securities under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the
terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder (in each case). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained herein
to the contrary, the Securities may be pledged as collateral in connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending
arrangement.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
VERITEQ CORP., a DELAWARE corporation (hereinafter called the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order
of POSITIVEID CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, or registered assigns (the “Holder”) the sum of Sixty Thousand
Dollars ($60,000), on October 20, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance
hereof at the rate of ten percent (10%) (the “Interest Rate”) per annum from the date hereof (the “Issue Date”)
until the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or upon acceleration or by prepayment or otherwise, compounded on
a monthly basis.  This Note may not be prepaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly set forth in Section
1.9 hereof. Any amount of principal or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of twenty
two percent (22%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid (“Default Interest”).  Interest
shall commence accruing on the Issue Date, shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.  All
payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock, (the “Common Stock”) in accordance with the
terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America.  All payments shall be made at such address
as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note.  Whenever
any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead
be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the case of any interest payment date which is not the date
on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining
the amount of interest due on such date.  As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day
other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required
by law or executive order to remain closed.  Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have
the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain GlucoChip and Settlement Agreement dated the date hereof, pursuant to which this
Note was originally issued (the “Letter Agreement”).

 

    	1

    	 

    

  

This Note is free from
all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other
similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.

 

The following terms
shall apply to this Note:

 

ARTICLE I. CONVERSION RIGHTS

 

1.1           Conversion
Right.  The Holder shall have the right from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on 190 days
after the date of this Note and ending on the later of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of payment of the Default Amount
(as defined in Article III) pursuant to Section 1.6(a) or Article III, each in respect of the remaining outstanding principal amount
of this Note to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable
shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the
Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price  (the “Conversion
Price”) determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); provided, however, that in no event shall
the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the
sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common
Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or
unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations
contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect
to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates
of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.  For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding
sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such
proviso, provided, further, however, that the limitations on conversion may be waived by the Holder upon,
at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Borrower and the provisions of the conversion limitation
shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in
such notice of waiver).  The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be
determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified
in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the
Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 1.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile (or
by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York
time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”).  The term “Conversion Amount” means, with
respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus
(2) at the Borrower’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided
in this Note to the Conversion Date, provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to pay any or all interest in cash
plus (3) at the Borrower’s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding
clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder’s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and
1.4(g) hereof.

 

    	2

    	 

    

  

1.2           Conversion
Price.

 

(a)          Calculation
of Conversion Price.  The conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall be the Variable Conversion
Price (as defined herein)(subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower
relating to the Borrower’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization,
reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events).  The “Variable Conversion Price”
shall mean a 40% Discount from the average of the three (3) lowest daily Trading Prices in the ten (10) Trading Days prior
to the day that the Holder requests conversion. “Trading Price”
means, for any security as of any date, the lowest trading price on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, or applicable trading
market (the “OTCQB”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) mutually acceptable
to Borrower and Holder (i.e. Bloomberg). If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner
provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the holders of a majority
in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion
Price of such Notes.  “Trading Day” shall
mean any day on which the Common Stock is traded for any period on the OTCQB, or on the principal securities exchange or other
securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded. If the Issuer’s Common stock is chilled for deposit
at DTC and/or becomes chilled at any point while this Agreement remains outstanding, an additional 8% discount will be attributed
to the Conversion Price defined hereof. If the Borrower is unable to issue any shares under this provision due to the fact
that there is an insufficient number of authorized and unissued shares available, the Holder promises not to force the Borrower
to issue these shares or trigger an Event of Default, provided that Borrower takes immediate steps required to get the appropriate
level of approval from shareholders or the board of directors, where applicable to raise the number of authorized shares to satisfy
the Notice of Conversion.

 

If the Company shall fail to provide an
irrevocable transfer agent instruction letter in an amount equal to the Reserved Amount (as defined in Section 1.3) by December
31, 2014, the Convertible note shall carry a 10% penalty which will be added to the principal amount hereof, provided however,
that such penalty will not apply if the Company files a proxy to effect an increase in its authorized stock and such proxy is reviewed
by the SEC.

 

    	3

    	 

    

  

(b)           Conversion
Price During Major Announcements.  Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 1.2(a) to the contrary, in the event
the Borrower (i) makes a public announcement that it intends to consolidate or merge with any other corporation (other than a merger
in which the Borrower is the surviving or continuing corporation and its capital stock is unchanged) or sell or transfer all or
substantially all of the assets of the Borrower or (ii) any person, group or entity (including the Borrower) publicly announces
a tender offer to purchase 50% or more of the Borrower’s Common Stock (or any other takeover scheme) (the date of the announcement
referred to in clause (i) or (ii) is hereinafter referred to as the  “Announcement Date”), then the Conversion
Price shall, effective upon the Announcement Date and continuing through the Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date (as defined
below), be equal to the lower of (x) the Conversion Price which would have been applicable for a Conversion occurring on the Announcement
Date and (y) the Conversion Price that would otherwise be in effect. From and after the Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date,
the Conversion Price shall be determined as set forth in this Section 1.2(a).  For purposes hereof,  “Adjusted
Conversion Price Termination Date” shall mean, with respect to any proposed transaction or tender offer (or takeover scheme)
for which a public announcement as contemplated by this Section 1.2(b) has been made, the date upon which the Borrower (in the
case of clause (i) above) or the person, group or entity (in the case of clause (ii) above) consummates or publicly announces the
termination or abandonment of the proposed transaction or tender offer (or takeover scheme) which caused this Section 1.2(b) to
become operative.

 

1.3           Authorized
Shares.  The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from
its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance
of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note issued pursuant to the Letter Agreement.  The Borrower is required
at all times to have authorized and reserved two times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion of the
Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Notes in effect from time to time) (the “Reserved Amount”).  
Following the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock as discussed in Section 1.2(a), the Borrower will provide
an irrevocable reserve letter, signed by the transfer agent, for the benefit of the holder to maintain such Reserved Amount at
any time requested by the Holder, but not more often than once a month. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares
will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities
or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall
be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter
there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion
of the outstanding Notes.  The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue
certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall
constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and
issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.

 

If, at any time during
which the conversion right exists the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default
under Section 3.2 of the Note.

 

1.4           Method
of Conversion.

 

(a)           Mechanics
of Conversion.  Subject to Section 1.1, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time
from time to time after 190 days after the Issue Date, by : (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile,
e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time)
and (B) subject to Section 1.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower.

 

    	4

    	 

    

  

(b)           Surrender
of Note Upon Conversion.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note
in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless
the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted.  The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records
showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory
to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.  In the
event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Borrower shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative
in the absence of manifest error.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid,
the Holder may not transfer this Note unless the Holder first physically surrenders this Note to the Borrower, whereupon the Borrower
will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Holder (upon payment
by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount
of this Note.  The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the
provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this
Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

(c)           Payment
of Taxes.  The Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other
than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other
securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such
shares are to be held for the Holder’s account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Borrower the amount
of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax has been paid.

 

(d)           Delivery
of Common Stock Upon Conversion.  Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail
(or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this
Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates
for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt ( but in any event the fifth
(5th) business day being hereinafter referred to as the “Deadline”) (and, solely in the case of conversion
of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of the this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(e)           Obligation
of Borrower to Deliver Common Stock.  Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be
deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount
of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its
obligations under this Article I, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate
except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion.  If
the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the
certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce
the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action
to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or
any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation
to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the
Holder in connection with such conversion.  The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion
Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is received by the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.

 

    	5

    	 

    

  

(f)           Delivery
of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer.  In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)
Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions
contained in Section 1.1 and in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically
transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC
through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system.

 

(g)           Failure
to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline.  Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other
remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline (other than a failure due to the circumstances described in Section 1.3
above, which failure shall be governed by such Section) the Borrower shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to (i) the
Cover Cost minus (ii) the Sale Proceeds. “Sale Proceeds” shall mean, from time to time, the net proceeds, if any, received
by Holder for selling the Common Stock related to such conversion notice, once they are ultimately delivered, , and “Cover
Cost” shall mean the net cost to Holder had it received if the Borrower had timely delivered the Common Stock.   Such
cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option
of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall
be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this
Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The
Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate,
interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly the parties acknowledge that the
liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 1.4(g) are justified.

 

1.5           Concerning
the Shares.  The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless  (i)
such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall
have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions
of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant
to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or
a successor rule) (“Rule 144”) or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule
144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an
Accredited Investor (as defined in the Letter Agreement). Until such time as the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of this Note have been registered under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the
number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant
to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in
the following form, as appropriate:

 

    	6

    	 

    

  

“NEITHER THE ISSUANCE
AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  THE SECURITIES MAY
NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN
A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE
144A UNDER SAID ACT.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN
ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”

 

The legend set forth above shall be removed
and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if (i) the Borrower or its transfer
agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions,
to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Act, which opinion
shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under
the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular
date that can then be immediately sold. In the event that the Company does not accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Holder
with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144 or Regulations S, at the
Deadline, it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Note.

 

1.6           Effect
of Certain Events.

 

(a)           Effect
of Merger, Consolidation, Etc.  At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which
more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of
the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall either:  (i)
be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the
Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article
III) or (ii) be treated pursuant to Section 1.6(b) hereof.  “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation,
limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.

(b)           Adjustment
Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc.  If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion
of all of the Notes, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar
event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares
of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all
or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower,
then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the
terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion,
such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted
in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such
case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the
provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares
issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities
or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof.  The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described
in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, thirty (30) days prior written notice (but in any
event at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or
if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization
or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting
successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Section 1.6(b).  The
above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.

 

(c)           Adjustment
Due to Distribution.  If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire
its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any
dividend or distribution to the Borrower’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock
of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a “Distribution”), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion
of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such
assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had
such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to
such Distribution.

 

(d)           Adjustment
Due to Dilutive Issuance.  If, at any time when any Notes are issued and outstanding, the Borrower issues or sells,
or in accordance with this Section 1.6(d) hereof is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock in connection with
a Subsequent Placement for no consideration or for a consideration per share (before deduction of reasonable expenses or commissions
or underwriting discounts or allowances in connection therewith) based on a variable price formula (the “Alternative Variable
Price Formula”) that is more favorable to the investor in such Subsequent Placement than the Variable Conversion Price in
effect on the date of such issuance (or deemed issuance) of such shares of Common Stock (a “Dilutive Issuance”), then
immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the Variable Conversion Price will be adjusted to match the Alternative Variable Price
Formula. If it is unclear whether the Alternative Variable Price Formula is better or worse, then Holder, in its sole discretion,
may elect at the time of such issuance whether to switch to the Alternative Variable Price Formula or not. In no event shall the
Conversion Price be above the original Conversion Price. “Subsequent Placement” shall mean a transaction, the primary
purpose of which is a debt or equity financing to raise money for the Borrower.

 

(e)           Purchase
Rights.  If, at any time when any Notes are issued and outstanding, the Borrower issues any convertible securities
or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property (the “Purchase Rights”) pro rata to the record
holders of any class of Common Stock, then the Holder of this Note will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such
Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder could have acquired if such Holder had held the number of shares
of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion contained herein)
immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights or, if no such record
is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase
Rights.

(f)           Notice
of Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the
events described in this Section 1.6, the Borrower, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment and
prepare and furnish to the Holder of a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts
upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.  The Borrower shall, upon the written request at any time of the
Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Conversion Price
at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which
at the time would be received upon conversion of the Note.

 

1.7           Trading
Market Limitations.  Unless permitted by the applicable rules and regulations of the principal securities market
on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded, in no event shall the Borrower issue upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant
to this Note and the other Notes issued pursuant to the Letter Agreement more than the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
that the Borrower can issue pursuant to any rule of the principal United States securities market on which the Common Stock is
then traded (the “Maximum Share Amount”), which shall be 9.99% of the total shares outstanding on the date of issuance. 

 

1.8           Status
as Shareholder.  Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by a Holder, (i) the shares covered thereby (other than
the shares, if any, which cannot be issued because their issuance would exceed such Holder’s allocated portion of the Reserved
Amount or Maximum Share Amount) shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Holder’s rights as a Holder
of such converted portion of this Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares
of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure
by the Borrower to comply with the terms  of this Note.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder has not
received certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the tenth (10th) business day after the expiration of the Deadline
with respect to a conversion of any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless the Holder otherwise elects to retain its
status as a holder of Common Stock by so notifying the Borrower) the Holder shall regain the rights of a Holder of this Note with
respect to such unconverted portions of this Note and the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted Note
to the Holder or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of this Note has not been
converted.  In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies (including, without limitation, (i)
the right to receive Conversion Default Payments pursuant to Section 1.3 to the extent required thereby for such Conversion Default
and any subsequent Conversion Default and (ii) the right to have the Conversion Price with respect to subsequent conversions determined
in accordance with Section 1.3) for the Borrower’s failure to convert this Note.

1.9           Prepayment.  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Note, so long as the Borrower has not received a Notice of Conversion from the Holder,
then at any time, the Borrower shall have the right, exercisable on not less than three (3) Trading Days prior written notice to
the Holder of the Note to prepay the outstanding Note (principal and accrued interest), in full, in accordance with this Section
1.9. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “Optional Prepayment Notice”) shall be delivered to the Holder of the Note
at its registered address and shall state: (1) that the Borrower is exercising its right to prepay the Note, and (2) the date of
prepayment. On the date fixed for prepayment (the “Optional Prepayment Date”), the Borrower shall make payment of the
Optional Prepayment Amount (as defined below) to or upon the order of the Holder as specified by the Holder in writing to the Borrower
at least one (1) business day prior to the Optional Prepayment Date. If the Borrower exercises its right to prepay the Note, the
Borrower shall make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash (the “Optional Prepayment Amount”) equal to the sum
of: (w) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal
amount of this Note to the Optional Prepayment Date plus (y) Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in clauses
(w) and (x) plus (z) any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and 1.4(g) hereof. If the Borrower delivers
and Optional Prepayment Notice and fails to pay the Optional Prepayment Amount due to the Holder of the Note within two (2) business
days following the Optional Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall forever forfeit its right to prepay the Note pursuant to this Section
1.9. If, at any time prior to 190 days from the date hereof, Borrower requests that Holder sell this Note to a purchaser for an
amount equal to the Optional Prepayment Amount, Holder shall agree to such sale and accept the Optional Prepayment Amount as full
consideration therefor, so long as payment is made in full by the purchaser prior to the 191st day.

equal to the greater of (i) 150% times the sum of (w) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note plus
(x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note to the date of payment (the “Mandatory Prepayment
Date”) plus (y) Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in clauses (w) and/or (x) plus (z) any
amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and 1.4(g) hereof (the then outstanding principal amount of this Note to the
date of payment plus the amounts referred to in clauses (x), (y) and (z) shall collectively be known as the “Default
Sum”) or (ii) the “parity value” of the Default
Sum to be prepaid, where parity value means (a) the highest number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of or otherwise
pursuant to such Default Sum in accordance with Article I, treating the Trading Day immediately preceding the Mandatory Prepayment
Date as the “Conversion Date” for purposes of determining
the lowest applicable Conversion Price, unless the Default Event arises as a result of such breach in respect of a specific Conversion
Date in which case such Conversion Date shall be the Conversion Date, multiplied by (b) the highest Closing Price for the
Common Stock during the period beginning on the date of first occurrence of the Event of Default and ending one day prior to the
Mandatory Prepayment Date (the “Default Amount”) and all other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due
and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including,
without limitation, legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies
available at low or in equity.

 

    	14

    	 

    

  

If the Borrower fails to pay the Default
Amount within five (5) business days of written notice that such amount is due and payable, then the Holder shall have the right
at any time, so long as the Borrower remains in default (and so long and to the extent that there are sufficient authorized shares),
to require the Borrower, upon written notice, to immediately issue, in lieu of the Default Amount, the number of shares of Common
Stock of the Borrower equal to the Default Amount divided by the Conversion Price then in effect.

to principles of conflicts of laws.  Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions
contemplated by this Note shall be brought only in the state courts of Florida or in the federal courts located in the state and
county of Palm Beach.  The parties to this Note hereby irrevocably waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any
action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non
conveniens.  The Borrower and Holder waive trial by jury.  The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees and costs.  In the event that any provision of this Note or any other
agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision
shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute
or rule of law.  Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.   Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service
of process and consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery)
to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good
and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any
right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

 

4.7           Certain
Amounts.  Whenever pursuant to this Note the Borrower is required to pay an amount in excess of the outstanding principal
amount (or the portion thereof required to be paid at that time) plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Default Interest on such
interest, the Borrower and the Holder agree that the actual damages to the Holder from the receipt of cash payment on this Note
may be difficult to determine and the amount to be so paid by the Borrower represents stipulated damages and not a penalty and
is intended to compensate the Holder in part for loss of the opportunity to convert this Note and to earn a return from the sale
of shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of this Note at a price in excess of the price paid for such shares pursuant
to this Note.  The Borrower and the Holder hereby agree that such amount of stipulated damages is not plainly disproportionate
to the possible loss to the Holder from the receipt of a cash payment without the opportunity to convert this Note into shares
of Common Stock.

4.8           GlucoChip
and Settlement Agreement.  By its acceptance of this Note, each party agrees to be bound by the applicable terms
of the GlucoChip and Settlement Agreement (also referred to herein as the Letter Agreement).

 

4.9           Notice
of Corporate Events.  Except as otherwise provided below, the Holder of this Note shall have no rights as a Holder
of Common Stock unless and only to the extent that it converts this Note into Common Stock. The Borrower shall provide the Holder
with prior notification of any meeting of the Borrower’s shareholders (and copies of proxy materials and other information
sent to shareholders).  In the event of any taking by the Borrower of a record of its shareholders for the purpose of
determining shareholders who are entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, any right to subscribe for,
purchase or otherwise acquire (including by way of merger, consolidation, reclassification or recapitalization) any share of any
class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or for the purpose of determining shareholders who are
entitled to vote in connection with any proposed sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower
or any proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Borrower, the Borrower shall mail a notice to the Holder, at least
twenty (20) days prior to the record date specified therein (or thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of the transaction or
event, whichever is earlier), of the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution,
right or other event, and a brief statement regarding the amount and character of such dividend, distribution, right or other event
to the extent known at such time.  The Borrower shall make a public announcement of any event requiring notification
to the Holder hereunder substantially simultaneously with the notification to the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Section
4.9.

 

4.10           Remedies.  The
Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder, by vitiating
the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby.  Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the remedy
at law for a breach of its obligations under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach
by the Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies
at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing
or curing any breach of this Note and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing
economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

 

4.11         Severability.
If any provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect, and if any
provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances.
If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder shall violate applicable laws governing usury,
the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum permitted rate of interest. The
Borrower covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner
whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive
the Borrower from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein, wherever enacted,
now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this indenture, and the Borrower
(to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it
will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impeded the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will
suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been enacted.

Purpose. As of the date hereof, Holder is purchasing this Note and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of or
otherwise pursuant hereto (including, without limitation, such additional shares of Common Stock, if any, as are issuable on account
of provisions hereof, such shares of Common Stock together with this Note, being referred to as the “Securities”)
for its own account and not with a present view towards the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered
or exempted from registration under the 1933 Act; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, Holder
does not agree to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Securities
at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act.

 

5.2          Accredited
Investor Status. Holder is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D (an
“Accredited Investor”).

 

5.3          Reliance
on Exemptions. Holder understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions
from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the
truth and accuracy of, and Holder’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings
of Holder set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of Holder to acquire the
Securities.

 

5.4          Information.
Holder and its advisors have been, and for so long as this Note remains outstanding will continue to be, furnished with all materials
relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities
which have been requested by Holder or its advisors. Holder and its advisors have been, and for so long as this Note remains outstanding
will continue to be, afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company has not
disclosed to Holder any material nonpublic information and will not disclose such information unless such information is disclosed
to the public prior to or promptly following such disclosure to Holder.

 

5.5          Governmental
Review. Holder understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has
passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.

 

    	18

    	 

    

  

5.6          Transfer
or Re-sale. Holder understands that (i) the sale or resale of the Securities has not been and is not being registered under
the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws, and the Securities may not be transferred unless (a) the Securities are sold
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, (b) Holder shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of
counsel that shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions to the effect that
the Securities to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration, which opinion
shall be accepted by the Company, (c) the Securities are sold or transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule
144 promulgated under the 1933 Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”)) of Holder who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer
the Securities only in accordance with this Section 2(f) and who is an Accredited Investor, (d) the Securities are sold pursuant
to Rule 144, or (e) the Securities are sold pursuant to Regulation S under the 1933 Act (or a successor rule) (“Regulation
S”), and Holder shall have delivered to the Company, at the cost of Holder, an opinion of counsel that shall be in form,
substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in corporate transactions, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company;
(ii) any sale of such Securities made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of said Rule and further,
if said Rule is not applicable, any re-sale of such Securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom
the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act) may require compliance with some
other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (iii) neither the Company nor any other
person is under any obligation to register such Securities under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the
terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder (in each case). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained herein
to the contrary, the Securities may be pledged as collateral in connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending
arrangement.
