degree of risk. The Buyer is not aware of any facts that may constitute a breach of any of the Company's representations and warranties

upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.

 

f. Transfer
or Re-sale. The Buyer understands that (i) the sale or re-sale of the Securities has not been and is not being registered under the

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

g. Legends.
The Buyer understands that the Note and, until such time as the Conversion Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act may be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation S without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately
sold, the Conversion Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed
against transfer of the certificates for such Securities):

 

“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 Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of any Security upon which it is stamped,
if, unless otherwise required by applicable state securities laws, (a) such Security is registered for sale under an effective registration
statement filed under the 1933 Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation S without any restriction as to the number
of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, or (b) such holder provides the Company with 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 Security may be made without registration under the 1933 Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale
or transfer is effected. The Buyer agrees to sell all Securities, including those represented by a certificate(s) from which the legend
has been removed, in compliance with applicable prospectus delivery requirements, if any. In the event that the Company does not accept
the opinion of counsel provided by the Buyer with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration, such
as Rule 144 or Regulation S, within 2 business days, it will be considered an Event of Default under the Note.

 

h. Authorization;
Enforcement. This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of
the Buyer, and this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Buyer enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
to the extent enforcement thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights or by the principles governing the availability of equitable remedies.

 

i. Residency.
The Buyer is a resident of the jurisdiction set forth immediately below the Buyer’s name on the signature pages hereto.

 

j. No
Short Sales. Buyer/Holder, its successors and assigns, agree that so long as the Note remains outstanding, the Buyer/Holder shall
not enter into or effect “short sales” of the Common Stock or hedging transaction which establishes a short position with
respect to the Common Stock of the Company. The Company acknowledges and agrees that upon delivery of a Conversion Notice by the Buyer/Holder,
the Buyer/Holder immediately owns the shares of Common Stock described in the Conversion Notice and any sale of those shares issuable
under such Conversion Notice would not be considered short sales.

 

    3

     

    

 

3. Representations
and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to the Buyer that:

 

a. Organization
and Qualification. The Company and each of its subsidiaries, if any, is a corporation or other entity duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, with full power and authority (corporate and other)
to own, lease, use and operate its properties and to carry on its business as and where now owned, leased, used, operated and conducted.

 

b. Authorization;
Enforcement. (i) The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, the Note and
to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and to issue the Securities, in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof,
(ii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Note by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby (including without limitation, the issuance of the Note and the issuance and reservation for issuance of the Conversion
Shares issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof) have been duly authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors and no further
consent or authorization of the Company, its Board of Directors, or its shareholders is required, (iii) this Agreement has been duly executed
and delivered by the Company by its authorized representative, and such authorized representative is the true and official representative
with authority to sign this Agreement and the other documents executed in connection herewith and bind the Company accordingly, and (iv)
this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery by the Company of the Note, each of such instruments will constitute, a legal,
valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except to the extent enforcement
thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights or by the
principles governing the availability of equitable remedies.

 

c. Issuance
of Shares. The Conversion Shares are duly authorized and reserved for issuance and, upon conversion of the Note in accordance with
its respective terms, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and 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 Company and
will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.

 

d. Acknowledgment
of Dilution. The Company understands and acknowledges the potentially dilutive effect to the Common Stock upon the issuance of the
Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Note. The Company further acknowledges that its obligation to issue Conversion Shares upon conversion
of the Note in accordance with this Agreement, the Note is absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance
may have on the ownership interests of other shareholders of the Company.

 

e. No
Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Note by the Company and the consummation by the Company
of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance and reservation for issuance of the Conversion
Shares) will not (i) conflict with or result in a violation of any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company,
or (ii) violate or conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or
lapse of time or both could become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation
of, any agreement, indenture, patent, patent license or instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party, or (iii)
result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations
and regulations of any self-regulatory organizations to which the Company or its securities are subject) applicable to the Company or
any of its subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is bound or affected (except for such
conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate,
have a material adverse effect on the Company). All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company is required
to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the date hereof. The Company is not in violation
of the listing requirements of the OTC marketplace (the “OTC MARKETS”) and does not reasonably anticipate that the Common
Stock will be delisted by the OTC Markets in the foreseeable future, nor are the Company’s securities “chilled” by DTC.
The Company and its subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances which might give rise to any of the foregoing.

 

    4

investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or their officers or
directors in their capacity as such, that could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Schedule 3(f) contains a complete list
and summary description of any pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened proceeding against or affecting the Company or
any of its subsidiaries, without regard to whether it would have a material adverse effect. The Company and its subsidiaries are unaware
of any facts or circumstances which might give rise to any of the foregoing.

 

g. Acknowledgment
Regarding Buyer’ Purchase of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Buyer is acting solely in the capacity
of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company further acknowledges
that the Buyer is not acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby and any statement made by the Buyer or any of its respective representatives or agents in connection
with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is not advice or a recommendation and is merely incidental to the Buyer’
purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to the Buyer that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement
has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Company and its representatives.

 

h. No
Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or
indirectly made any offers or sales in any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would require
registration under the 1933 Act of the issuance of the Securities to the Buyer. The issuance of the Securities to the Buyer will not be
integrated with any other issuance of the Company’s securities (past, current or future) for purposes of any shareholder approval
provisions applicable to the Company or its securities.

 

i. Title
to Property. The Company and its subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property and good and marketable
title to all personal property owned by them which is material to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries, in each case free

and facilities held under lease by the Company and its subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with
such exceptions as would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

 

j. Bad
Actor. No officer or director of the Company would be disqualified under Rule 506(d) of the 1933 Act as amended on the basis of being
a "bad actor" as that term is established in the September 19, 2013 Small Entity Compliance Guide published by the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

 

k. Breach
of Representations and Warranties by the Company. If the Company breaches any of the representations or warranties set forth in this
Section 3, and in addition to any other remedies available to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, it will be considered an Event of
default under the Note.
