Board of Directors adopted the following resolution, which resolution remains in full force and effect as of the date hereof:

 

WHEREAS, the
Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) is authorized, within the limitations and restrictions
stated in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), to fix by resolution
or resolutions the designation of preferred stock and the powers, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special
rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such
provisions as may be desired concerning voting, redemption, dividends, dissolution or the distribution of assets, conversion or

Stock of the Company (the “Original Certificate of Designations”) for the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series
A Preferred Stock”); and

 

WHEREAS, it
is the desire of the Board of Directors of the Company, pursuant to its authority as aforesaid, to amend the Original Certificate
of Designations as set forth herein;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant
to Section 3(a) of the Original Certificate of Designations, on January 18, 2013, the Company obtained the affirmative vote of

Dividends.

due on the next succeeding Trading Day. The Company shall have the option to pay the Preferred Dividend in cash or in shares of
duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Commons Stock, or a combination thereof. If the Preferred
Dividend is paid in whole or in part in shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on any given Dividend
Payment Date shall be calculated by dividing (x) the difference between (I) the aggregate Preferred Dividend due on such Dividend
Payment Date and (II) the cash portion of such Preferred Dividend to be paid (if any), by (y) the lower of Conversion Price or
the Closing Bid Price (as defined in Section 5(c)(iii) of the Original Certificate of Designations) on the Dividend Payment Date

C.           Bank
has agreed to so amend and restate the Existing Loan Agreement, but only to the extent, in accordance with the terms, subject to
the conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth below.

 

1.          ACCOUNTING
AND OTHER TERMS

 

Accounting terms not
defined in this Agreement shall be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP; provided
that if at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any
Loan Document, and either Borrower or Bank shall so request, Borrower and Bank shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio
or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP; provided, further, that, until so
amended, (a) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (b)
Borrower shall provide Bank financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder
setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change
in GAAP. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13 of this
Agreement. All other terms contained in this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, shall have the meaning provided by the Code

2.          LOAN
AND TERMS OF PAYMENT

 

2.1.         Promise
to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Bank the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions
and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, together with any fees and Finance Charges, as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.

 

2.1.1.     Financing
of Accounts.

 

(a)          Availability
During Streamline Period.

 

(i)          Availability.
During any Streamline Period, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank shall make Advances not exceeding
the Availability Amount (each a “Streamline Advance”). Amounts borrowed hereunder
may be repaid and, prior to the Maturity Date, reborrowed, subject to the applicable terms and conditions precedent herein.

 

    	1

    	 

    

 

(ii)         Borrowing
Procedure. Borrower will deliver an Advance Request and Invoice Transmittal for each Streamline Advance it requests, accompanied
by an accounts receivable aging report. Bank may rely on information set forth in or provided with the Advance Request and Invoice
Transmittal.

 

(iii)        Overadvances.
If, at any time, the outstanding principal amount of any Streamline Advances, exceeds the lesser of either the Streamline Facility
Amount or the Borrowing Base, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank in cash such excess.

 

(iv)        Initial
Streamline Period; Conversion to Streamline Financing. To qualify for the initial Streamline Period, Borrower shall have provided
evidence satisfactory to Bank that Borrower has satisfied the requirements for a Streamline Period (A) at all times during the
immediately preceding sixty (60) day period, or (B) as of the last day of the month in which Borrower received new equity investment
or new Subordinated Debt sufficient to satisfy the minimum Net Cash required for a Streamline Period. For the sake of clarity,
the immediately preceding sixty (60) day period may include up to sixty (60) days prior to the Effective Date. During any Non-Streamline
Period, Borrower may elect to convert to a Streamline Period if Borrower has satisfied the requirements for a Streamline Period
at all times during the immediately preceding sixty (60) day period.

 

(v)         Election
to Request Non-Streamline Advances. During any Streamline Period and so long as no Streamline Advances remain outstanding,
Borrower may elect to request that Bank make Non-Streamline Advances, which such Non-Streamline Advances shall be made pursuant
to, and shall be subject to, the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.1.1(a). For the sake of clarity, Borrower may
not have Streamline Advances and Non-Streamline Advances outstanding at the same time.

 

(b)          Availability
During Non-Streamline Period.

 

(i)          Availability.
During any Non-Streamline Period, and subject to the terms of this Agreement, Borrower may request that Bank finance specific
Eligible Accounts. Bank may, in its sole discretion, finance such Eligible Accounts by extending credit to Borrower in an amount
equal to the result of the Advance Rate multiplied by the face amount of the Eligible Account (each a “Non-Streamline
Advance”). When Bank makes a Non-Streamline Advance, the Eligible Account becomes a Financed Receivable.

 

(ii)         Maximum
Advances. The aggregate face amount of all Financed Receivables outstanding at any time may not exceed the Non-Streamline Facility
Amount.

 

(iii)        Borrowing
Procedure. Borrower will deliver an Advance Request and Invoice Transmittal for each Non-Streamline Advance it requests under
this Section 2.1.1(b), accompanied by invoices for each Eligible Account for which such Non-Streamline Advance is requested.
Bank may rely on information set forth in or provided with the Advance Request and Invoice Transmittal.

 

(iv)        Credit
Quality; Confirmations. During any Non-Streamline Period, Bank may, at its option, conduct a credit check of the Account Debtor
for each Account requested by Borrower for financing hereunder in order to approve any such Account Debtor’s credit before
agreeing to finance such Account. Bank may also verify directly with the respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other
matters relating to the Accounts (including confirmations of Borrower’s representations in Section 5.3) by means of
mail, telephone or otherwise, either in the name of Borrower or Bank from time to time in its sole discretion.

 

(c)          Accounts
Notification/Collection. Bank may notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in the funds and
verify and/or collect the amount of the Account.

 

    	2

    	 

    

 

(d)          Early
Termination. This Agreement may be terminated, without premium or penalty, prior to the Maturity Date as follows: (i) by Borrower,
effective three (3) Business Days after written notice of termination is given to Bank; or (ii) by Bank at any time after the occurrence
of an Event of Default, without notice, effective immediately.

 

(e)          Maturity.
This Agreement shall terminate and all Obligations with respect to Advances outstanding hereunder shall be immediately due and
payable in full on the Maturity Date.

 

(f)          Suspension
of Advances. Borrower’s ability to request that Bank finance Eligible Accounts hereunder will terminate if, in Bank’s
sole discretion, there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of operation, condition (financial
or otherwise) or the prospect of repayment of the Obligations, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from
the most recent business plan of Borrower presented to and accepted by Bank prior to the Effective Date.

 

(g)          End
of Streamline Period. On any day that any Streamline Period ends, all outstanding Streamline Advances, shall be immediately
due and payable, together with all Finance Charges accrued thereon. Provided no Event of Default then exists hereunder and subject
to the terms of this Agreement, Bank may, in its sole discretion in each instance, agree to refinance the outstanding principal
amount of such Streamline Advances with new Non-Streamline Advances made based on specific Eligible Accounts (in accordance with
this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 2.1.1(b) hereof). In connection with same, Borrower shall deliver
to Bank an Advance Request and Invoice Transmittal containing detailed invoice reporting, signed by a Responsible Officer together
with a current accounts receivable aging and a copy of each invoice, all in accordance with Section 6.2(h), hereof and Bank,
in its sole discretion in each instance, may finance same (in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section
2.1.1(b) hereof) and each Eligible Account financed shall thereafter be deemed to be a Financed Receivable for purposes of
this Agreement. If, following such determination, the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations exceeds the amount of all
Non-Streamline Advances Bank has agreed to make based on specific Eligible Accounts, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank the
excess and, in connection with same, hereby irrevocably authorizes Bank to debit any account of Borrower maintained by Borrower
with Bank or any of Bank’s Affiliates for the amount of such excess.

 

2.1.2.     Term
Loan.

 

(a)          Availability.
Bank has made the Term Loan to Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Existing Loan Agreement. No further advances are available
to Borrower under the Term Loan. The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan shall continue to accrue interest at a floating
per annum rate equal to the sum of two and one quarter of one percent (2.25%).

 

(b)          Repayment.
Borrower shall continue to repay the Term Loan in monthly payments of principal and interest in an amount equal to $61,051.48.
All outstanding principal for the Term Loan, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the Term
Loan Maturity Date.

 

2.2.        Collections,
Finance Charges, Remittances and Fees. The Obligations shall be subject to the following fees and Finance Charges. Unpaid
fees and Finance Charges may, in Bank’s discretion, accrue interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Obligations.

 

2.2.1.     Collections.

 

(a)          During
Streamline Period. During any Streamline Period, Collections will be credited to the Designated Deposit Account, but if there
is an Event of Default, Bank may apply Collections to the Obligations in any order it chooses.

 

(b)          During
Non-Streamline Period. During any Non-Streamline Period, Collections will be credited to the Financed Receivable Balance for
such Financed Receivable, but if there is an Event of Default, Bank may apply Collections to the Obligations in any order it chooses.
If Bank receives a payment for both a Financed Receivable and a non-Financed Receivable, the funds will first be applied to the
Financed Receivable and, if there is no Event of Default then existing, the excess will be remitted to Borrower, subject to Section
2.2.7 of this Agreement.

 

    	3

    	 

    

 

2.2.2.     Facility
Fee. A fully earned, non-refundable facility fee of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000) is due upon the Effective
Date (the “Facility Fee”).

 

2.2.3.     Payment
of Interest During Streamline Periods.

 

(a)          Interest
Rate. Subject to Section 9.6, the principal amount of any Advance outstanding under this Agreement during all Streamline
Periods shall accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to Applicable Rate, which interest shall be payable monthly in
accordance with Section 2.2.3(e) below.

 

(b)          Adjustment
to Interest Rate. Changes to the interest rate of any Advance based on changes to the Prime Rate shall be effective on the
effective date of any change to the Prime Rate and to the extent of any such change.

 

(c)          Computation;
360-Day Year. In computing interest, the date of the making of any Advance shall be included and the date of payment shall
be excluded; provided, however, that if any Advance is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included
in computing interest on such Advance. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days
elapsed.

 

(d)          Debit
of Accounts. Bank may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts, including any Designated Deposit Account, for principal
and interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes Bank when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off, and Bank shall
use its best efforts to notify Borrower of such debits.

 

(e)          Interest
Payment Date. Unless otherwise provided, interest is payable monthly on the first calendar day of each month.

 

2.2.4.     Finance
Charges During Non-Streamline Period. All Collections received by Bank shall be deemed applied by Bank on account of the
Obligations two (2) Business Days after receipt of the Collections. Borrower will pay a finance charge (the “Finance
Charge”) on each Financed Receivable which is equal to the Applicable Rate divided by 360 multiplied by
the number of days each such Financed Receivable is outstanding multiplied by the outstanding Financed Receivable Balance.
The Finance Charge is payable when the Advance made based on such Financed Receivable is repaid in accordance with Section 2.3
hereof.  Immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Applicable Rate will increase to the Default
Rate. Bank will not compute the interest in a manner that would cause Bank to contract for, charge or receive interest that would
exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate or the Maximum Lawful Amount.  In
the event that the aggregate amount of Finance Charges earned by Bank in any Reconciliation Period is less than the Minimum Finance
Charge, Borrower shall pay to Bank an additional Finance Charge equal to (i) the Minimum Finance Charge, minus (ii) the aggregate
amount of all Finance Charges earned by Bank in such Reconciliation Period. Such additional Finance Charge shall be payable on
the first day of next Reconciliation Period.

 

2.2.5.     Accounting.
After each Reconciliation Period, Bank will provide Borrower with an accounting of the transactions for that Reconciliation Period,
including the amount of all Financed Receivables, all Collections, Adjustments, Finance Charges, Collateral Handling Fee, and the
Facility Fee. If Borrower does not object to the accounting in writing within thirty (30) days it shall be considered accurate.
All Finance Charges and other interest and fees are calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed.

 

2.2.6.     Deductions.
Bank may deduct fees, Bank Expenses, Finance Charges, Advances which become due pursuant to Section 2.3 of this Agreement, and
other amounts due pursuant to this Agreement from any Advances made or Collections received by Bank.

 

    	4

    	 

    

 

2.2.7.     Lockbox;
Account Collection Services. Borrower shall direct each Account Debtor (and each depository institution where proceeds
of Accounts are on deposit) to remit payments with respect to the Accounts to a lockbox account established with Bank or to wire
transfer payments to a cash collateral account that Bank controls (collectively, the “Lockbox”). It will be
considered an immediate Event of Default if the Lockbox is not established and operational and at all times on the Effective Date
and at all times thereafter until such Lockbox is established and operational. Upon receipt by Borrower of any proceeds of Accounts,
Borrower shall immediately transfer and deliver same to Bank, along with a detailed cash receipts journal. Provided no Event of
Default exists or an event that with notice or lapse of time will be an Event of Default, within two (2) days of receipt of any
proceeds of the Accounts by Bank (whether received by Bank in the Lockbox, directly from Borrower, or otherwise) Bank will turn
over to Borrower such proceeds other than (i) Collections applied by Bank pursuant to Section 2.2.1 of this Agreement, and
(ii) such proceeds which shall be used by Bank to repay any other amounts due to Bank, such as the Finance Charge, the Facility
Fee, and Bank Expenses; provided, however, Bank may hold any proceeds of the Accounts (whether received by Bank in the Lockbox,
directly from Borrower, or otherwise and whether or not in respect of Financed Receivables as a reserve until the end of the applicable
Reconciliation Period if Bank, in its discretion, determines that other Financed Receivable(s) may no longer qualify as an Eligible
Account at any time prior to the end of the subject Reconciliation Period. This Section does not impose any affirmative duty on
Bank to perform any act other than as specifically set forth herein. All Accounts and the proceeds thereof are Collateral and if
an Event of Default occurs, Bank may apply the proceeds of such Accounts to the Obligations.

 

2.2.8.     Bank
Expenses. Borrower shall pay all Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, plus expenses,
for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due.

 

2.2.9.     Spreading
of Interest. Due to irregular periodic balances of principal, the variable nature of the interest rate, or prepayment,
the total interest that will accrue under this Agreement cannot be determined in advance. Bank does not intend to contract for,
charge or receive more than the Maximum Lawful Rate or Maximum Lawful Amount permitted by applicable state or federal law, and
to prevent such an occurrence Bank and Borrower agree that all amounts of interest, whenever contracted for, charged or received
by Bank, with respect to the Obligations, will be spread, prorated or allocated over the full period of time the Obligations are
unpaid, including the period of any renewal or extension thereof. If the maturity of the Obligations is accelerated for any reason
whether as a result of an Event of Default or otherwise prior to the full stated term, the total amount of interest contracted
for, charged or received to the time of such demand shall be spread, prorated or allocated along with any interest thereafter accruing
over the full period of time that the Obligations thereafter remain unpaid for the purpose of determining if such interest exceeds
the Maximum Lawful Amount.

 

2.2.10.   Excess
Interest. At maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) or on earlier final payment of the Obligations, Bank will
compute the total amount of interest that has been contracted for, charged or received by Bank or payable by Borrower hereunder
and compare such amount to the Maximum Lawful Amount that could have been contracted for, charged or received by Bank. If such
computation reflects that the total amount of interest that has been contracted for, charged or received by Bank or payable by
Borrower exceeds the Maximum Lawful Amount, then Bank shall apply such excess to the reduction of the principal balance, such excess
shall be refunded to Borrower. This provision concerning the crediting or refund of excess interest shall control and take precedence
over all other agreements between Borrower and Bank so that under no circumstances shall the total interest contracted for, charged
or received by Bank exceed the Maximum Lawful Amount.

 

2.3.         Repayment
of Obligations; Adjustments.

 

2.3.1.      Repayment.

 

(a)          Repayment
During Streamline Period. During any Streamline Period, Borrower shall make monthly interest payments on the principal amount
of all outstanding Advances. The principal amount of all Advances, the unpaid interest thereon, and all other Obligations relating

Organization and Authorization. Borrower is duly existing and in good standing as Registered Organizations in its jurisdiction
of formation and is qualified and licensed to do business and is in good standing in any other jurisdiction in which the conduct
of its business or ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business. In connection with this Agreement, Borrower has delivered
to Bank a completed certificate signed by Borrower, entitled Perfection Certificate (the “Perfection Certificate”).
Borrower represents and warrants to Bank that (a) Borrower’s exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificate
and on the signature page hereof; (b) Borrower is an organization of the type and is organized in the jurisdiction set forth in
the Perfection Certificate; (c) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s organizational identification

of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office as well as Borrower’s mailing address (if different than its
chief executive office); (e) Borrower (and each of its predecessors) has not, in the past five (5) years, changed its jurisdiction
of formation, corporate structure, organizational type, or any organizational number assigned by its jurisdiction; and (f) all

(it being understood and agreed that Borrower may from time to time update certain information in the Perfection Certificate after
the Effective Date to the extent permitted by one or more specific provisions in this Agreement). .

 

The execution, delivery
and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with
any of Borrower’s organizational documents, (ii) contravene, conflict with, constitute a default under or violate any material
Requirement of Law, (iii) contravene, conflict or violate any applicable order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination
or award of any Governmental Authority by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their property or assets may be bound
or affected, (iv) require any action by, filing, registration, or qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any Governmental
Authority (except such Governmental Approvals which have already been obtained and are in full force and effect, or (v) constitute
an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to
which it is a party or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect
on Borrower’s business.

 

5.2.         Collateral.
Borrower has good title to, has rights in, and the power to transfer, each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to grant
a Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens. Borrower has no deposit accounts other than the deposit
accounts with Bank, the deposit accounts, if any, described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Bank in connection herewith,
or of which Borrower has given Bank notice and taken such actions as are necessary to give Bank a perfected security interest therein.
The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of the Account Debtors. All Inventory is in all material respects of good and
marketable quality, free from material defects.

 

The Collateral is not
in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse) except as otherwise provided in Schedule 5.2. None of
the components of the Collateral are currently being maintained at locations other than as provided in the Perfection Certificate

in the ordinary course of business, (b) over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public, and (c) material
Intellectual Property licensed to Borrower and noted on the Perfection Certificate. Each Patent which it owns or purports to own
and which is material to Borrower’s business is valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property which Borrower
owns or purports to own and which is material to Borrower’s business has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or
in part. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, no claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual Property violates
the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect
on Borrower’s business. Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, Borrower is not a party to, nor is it bound by, any
Restricted License.

Collateral; and

 

(j)          No
representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statement contained in the certificates or
statement not misleading.

 

5.4.          Litigation.

debts (including trade debts) as they mature.

 

5.7.          Regulatory

company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Borrower is not engaged as one of its important activities
in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Neither Borrower
nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of a “holding company”
or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” as each term is defined and used in the Public Utility
Holding Company Act of 2005. Borrower has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower
has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse
Change. None of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or,
to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any
hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations

Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions. Borrower has timely filed all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower
has timely paid all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower. Borrower
may defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower (a) in good faith contests its obligation to pay the taxes by
appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (b) notifies Bank in writing of the commencement of,
and any material development in, the proceedings and (c) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to prevent the Governmental
Authority levying such contested taxes from obtaining a Lien upon any of the Collateral that is other than a “Permitted Lien”.

result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by Borrower. Borrower has paid all amounts necessary to fund all present pension,
profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not withdrawn from participation
in, and has not permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any
such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit
Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.

given to Bank, as of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written
certificates and written statements given to Bank, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading (it being recognized by Bank that
any projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts

Debt. (a) Make or permit any payment on any Subordinated Debt, except under the terms of the subordination, intercreditor,

is likely to be cured within a reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional reasonable period (which shall not in any
case exceed thirty (30) days) to attempt to cure such default, and within such reasonable time period the failure to have cured

9.          BANK’S
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

 

9.1.         Rights
and Remedies. When an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:

 

    	15

    	 

    

 

(a)          Declare
all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately
due and payable without any action by Bank);

 

(b)          Stop
advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower
and Bank;

 

(c)          Settle
or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable
and notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such account.
Borrower shall collect all payments in trust for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the
form received from the Account Debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit;

 

(d)          Make
any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower
shall assemble the Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank designates. Bank may enter premises where the Collateral
is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which
appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter
and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;

 

(e)          Apply
to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit
or the account of Borrower;

 

(f)          Ship,
reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Bank is hereby
granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, Patents, Copyrights,
mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, and advertising matter, or any similar property
as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection
with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements
inure to Bank’s benefit;

 

(g)          Place
a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or
other directions or instructions pursuant to any control agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral; and

 

(h)          demand
and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and

 

(i)          exercise
all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the
Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

 

9.2.          Protective
Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.4 of this Agreement or fails to pay any premium
thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Bank
may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable,
bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Obligations, and secured by the Collateral. Bank will make reasonable
efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time
thereafter. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event
of Default.

 

9.3.          Bank’s
Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral
in the possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral;
(b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier,
warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

 

    	16

    	 

    

 

9.4.          No
Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand
strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting
the waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Bank’s rights and remedies
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by
law, or in equity. Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude Bank from exercising
any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default
is not a continuing waiver. Bank’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

 

9.5.          Demand
Waiver. Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default,
nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper,
and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is liable.

 

9.6.          Default
Rate. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, all Obligations shall accrue interest at the Applicable Rate plus five
percent (5.0%) per annum; but in no event more than the Maximum Lawful Rate (the “Default Rate”).

 

10.         NOTICES.

11.         CHOICE
OF LAW, VENUE AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER

 

Texas law governs the
Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the State and Federal courts in Texas; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed
to operate to preclude Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral
or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank. Borrower expressly submits
and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any
objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents
to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Borrower hereby waives personal service
of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints,
and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the address set forth in Section 10 of this
Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt thereof
or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

 

    	17

    	 

    

 

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT
OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND
ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS
WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

 

12.         GENERAL
PROVISIONS

 

12.1.        Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower
may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Bank’s prior written consent (which may be granted
or withheld in Bank’s discretion). Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to Borrower, to sell, transfer, assign,
negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights, and benefits under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than the Warrant, as to which assignment, transfer and other such actions are
governed by the terms of the Warrant).

 

12.2.        Indemnification.
BORROWER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD BANK AND ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES,
AGENTS, ATTORNEYS, OR ANY OTHER PERSON AFFILIATED WITH OR REPRESENTING BANK (EACH, AN “INDEMNIFIED PERSON”)
HARMLESS AGAINST: (A) ALL OBLIGATIONS, DEMANDS, CLAIMS, AND LIABILITIES (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”) CLAIMED OR
ASSERTED BY ANY OTHER PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THE LOAN DOCUMENTS; AND (B) ALL LOSSES OR EXPENSES
(INCLUDING BANK EXPENSES) IN ANY WAY SUFFERED, INCURRED, OR PAID BY SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON AS A RESULT OF, FOLLOWING FROM, CONSEQUENTIAL
TO, OR ARISING FROM TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN BANK AND BORROWER (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES), EXCEPT FOR
CLAIMS AND/OR LOSSES DIRECTLY CAUSED BY SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

 

12.3.       Right
of Set-Off. Borrower hereby grants to Bank, a lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all Obligations to
Bank, whether now existing or hereafter arising upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter
in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Bank or any entity under the control of Bank (including a Bank subsidiary)
or in transit to any of them. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand
or notice, Bank may set off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though
unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BANK TO
EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT
OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY
WAIVED.

 

12.4.       Time
of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement.

 

12.5.       Correction
of Loan Documents. Bank may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in the Loan Documents consistent with the agreement
of the parties.

 

12.6.        Severability
of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of
any provision.

 

    	18

    	 

    

 

12.7.        Amendments
in Writing; Waiver; Integration. No purported amendment or modification of any Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination
of any obligation under any Loan Document, shall be enforceable or admissible unless, and only to the extent, expressly set forth
in a writing signed by the party against which enforcement or admission is sought. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
no oral promise or statement, nor any action, inaction, delay, failure to require performance or course of conduct shall operate
as, or evidence, an amendment, supplement or waiver or have any other effect on any Loan Document. Any waiver granted shall be
limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it, and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether
similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence, any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver. The Loan Documents
represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements,
understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of the Loan Documents
merge into the Loan Documents.

 

12.8.        Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which,
when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.

 

12.9.        Survival.
All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated
pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their
terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been paid in full and satisfied. The obligation of Borrower in Section
12.2 of this Agreement to indemnify Bank shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of
action shall have run.

 

12.10.       Confidentiality.
In handling any confidential information, Bank shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary
information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to Bank’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates (such Subsidiaries and Affiliates,
together with Bank, each a “Bank Entity” and collectively, the “Bank Entities”); (b) to prospective
transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Advances; (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to
Bank’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with Bank’s examination or audit; (e) as Bank considers appropriate
in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third-party service providers of Bank so long as such service providers
have executed a confidentiality agreement with Bank with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein. Confidential information
does not include information that is: (i) either in the public domain other than as a result of Bank’s breach of this section
or is in Bank’s possession when disclosed to Bank; or (ii) disclosed to Bank by a third party on a nonconfidential basis
if Bank does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.

Bank Entities may use
the confidential information for reporting purposes and the development and distribution of databases and market analyses so long
as such confidential information is aggregated and anonymized prior to distribution unless otherwise expressly prohibited by Borrower.
The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

12.11.       Electronic
Execution of Documents. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like
import in any Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each
of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based
recordkeeping systems, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including, without limitation,
any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

 

12.12.       Captions.
The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

 

12.13.       Construction
of Agreement. The parties mutually acknowledge that they and their attorneys have participated in the preparation and negotiation
of this Agreement. In cases of uncertainty this Agreement shall be construed without regard to which of the parties caused the
uncertainty to exist.

 

12.14.       Relationship.
The relationship of the parties to this Agreement is determined solely by the provisions of this Agreement. The parties do not
intend to create any agency, partnership, joint venture, trust, fiduciary or other relationship with duties or incidents different
from those of parties to an arm’s-length contract.

 

    	19

    	 

    

 

12.15.    Third
Parties. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to: (a) confer any benefits, rights or remedies
under or by reason of this Agreement on any persons other than the express parties to it and their respective permitted successors
and assigns; (b) relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any person not an express party to this Agreement; or (c)
give any person not an express party to this Agreement any right of subrogation or action against any party to this Agreement.

Compliance Certificate

I, as authorized officer
of Crossroads Systems (Texas), Inc. (“Borrower”) certify under the Fourth Amended and Restated Loan and Security
Agreement (the “Agreement”) between Borrower and Silicon Valley Bank (“Bank”) as follows
(all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement):

 

Borrower represents and warrants for
each Financed Receivable:

 

Each Financed Receivable is an Eligible
Account.

 

Borrower is the owner with legal right
to sell, transfer, assign and encumber such Financed Receivable;

 

The correct
amount is on the Advance Request and Invoice Transmittal and is not disputed;

 

Payment is
not contingent on any obligation or contract and Borrower has fulfilled all its obligations as of the Advance Request and
Invoice Transmittal date;

 

Each Financed Receivable is based on an
actual sale and delivery of goods and/or services rendered, is due to Borrower, is not past due or in default, has not been previously
sold, assigned, transferred, or pledged and is free of any liens, security interests and encumbrances other than Permitted Liens;

 

There are no defenses, offsets, counterclaims
or agreements for which the Account Debtor may claim any deduction or discount;

 

It reasonably believes no Account Debtor
is insolvent or subject to any Insolvency Proceedings;

No representation, warranty or other statement
of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact necessary to make the statement contained in the certificates or statement not misleading.

 

Additionally, Borrower represents and
warrants as follows:

 

Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing
and in good standing in its state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in, any state
in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do
so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents
have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower’s organizational documents, nor constitute an event of default
under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which it
is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

 

Borrower has good title to the Collateral,
free of Liens except Permitted Liens. All inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from material
defects.

engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve
Board of Governors). Borrower has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower has not
violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
None of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the
best of Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous
substance other than legally. Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made adequate

each Subsidiary has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all
notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted except where the failure
to obtain or make such consents, declarations, notices or filings would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse
Change.

Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on this date, and the Borrower represents that there is no existing Event
of Default.
