OPTION AGREEMENT

This Option Agreement (this "Agreement"), effective this 27 day of June, 2016 (the "Effective Date"), is by and between Involve, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("Seller"), and Capstone Companies, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company").  Seller and the Company are sometimes individually referred to as a "Party," and collectively as the "Parties." Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Purchase Agreement (as defined below).

RECITALS

A. Seller owns 25,000,000 shares of the Company (the "Securities"), which securities are evidenced by stock certificate number 2629-4 (the "Certificate");

B. Each of the Company, Neil Singer, an individual and an Affiliate of Seller ("Singer") and AC Kinetics, Inc., a Delaware limited liability company and an Affiliate of Singer ("ACK") are concurrently entering into that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), whereby Singer will purchase all of the outstanding securities of ACK owned by the Company in exchange for (1) the making by Singer to the order of the Company a promissory note in the initial principal amount of $1,500,000 (the "Note"), provided that following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, Singer shall assign to NLO Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an Affiliate of Singer ("NLO"), and NLO shall assume, all of Singer's rights and obligations under the Note, and NLO shall immediately thereafter assign to ACK NLO, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of Singer and NLO ("Newco"), and Newco shall assume, all of NLO's rights and obligations under the Note, and (2) the entry by Seller and the Company into this Agreement; and

C. In connection with and as consideration for the entry by the Company, Singer and ACK into the Purchase Agreement, the Parties desire to enter into this Agreement that, among other things, grants to the Company an option to repurchase the Securities subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

 OPTION TO PURCHASE

1.1 Grant of Option and Term.  Subject to the terms hereof and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the respective Parties contained herein:

	
(a)

	
Seller hereby grants to the Company options to repurchase the Securities at a purchase price of $0.01 per share in five (5) increments of 5,000,000 shares (each, an "Option" and collectively the "Options") for $50,000 per Option (the "Exercise Price"), for a total purchase price of $250,000 in the aggregate if all Options are exercised.

	
(b)

	
Each Option may be exercised or not by the Company in its sole discretion, by written notice from the Company to Seller (each, an "Exercise Notice").  For the avoidance of doubt, the Company's ability to exercise any Option is not contingent upon the occurrence of any transaction involving Seller and/or any of its Affiliates or any Affiliates of Neil Singer.

1

	

	

	
(c)

	
Each unexercised Option shall terminate on the Termination Date (as defined below).  For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may not exercise any Option that has not been exercised before the expiration of the Option Period (as defined below).

	
(d)

	
The following terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth below:

	
(i)

	
The "First Exercise Date" means the first date that the Company exercises any Option in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

	
(ii)

	
The "Termination Date" means the earlier of (A) the twelve (12) month anniversary of the First Exercise Date or (B) the thirty-six (36) month anniversary of the Effective Date.

	
(iii)

	
The "Option Period" means the period between the Effective Date and the Termination Date.

1.2 Duties Upon Exercise of Option; Option Closing.  If an Option is exercised during the Option Period, then, within five days of receipt of the Exercise Notice, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will repurchase from Seller, and Seller will sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to the Company, free and clear of all Liens (other than any Liens existing under securities Laws), all right, title and interest in, to and under the Securities underlying such Option (the "Applicable Securities"). The total consideration payable by the Company to Seller in consideration for the Applicable Securities shall be the Exercise Price.  The closing of such transaction (each, an "Option Closing") will take place at a location to be mutually agreed between the Parties.  At each Option Closing, (a) the Company shall (i) pay the Exercise Price to Seller; (ii) update the Company's stock ledger to reflect the exercise of such Option and (iii) issue a new stock certificate to the Escrow Agent, on behalf of Seller, reflecting Seller's true and correct ownership in the Company following such Option Closing (each, a "Revised Certificate") and cancel the Certificate or any Revised Certificate, as applicable, upon receipt of such Certificate or Revised Certificate, as applicable, from the Escrow Agent, and (b) the Parties shall instruct the Escrow Agent to (i) surrender the Certificate or any Revised Certificate, as applicable, to the Company for cancellation upon receipt of a Revised Certificate, and (ii) hold the applicable Revised Certificate in Escrow pursuant to Section 4.1.  Upon the final Option Closing, the Parties shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release the Certificate or any Revised Certificate, as applicable, to the Company.  In the event that the Company exercises each Option, upon Seller's receipt of the Exercise Price at the final Option Closing, Seller shall no longer have any rights to the Securities.  For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall execute and deliver to the Company, or cause to be executed and delivered on behalf of Seller to the Company, such instruments and other documents as the Company may reasonably request in order to implement the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including all further materials, documents and instruments of conveyance, Transfer or assignment to effect, record or verify the Transfer to, and vesting in the Company of, all right, title and interest in and to the Applicable Securities at each Option Closing, free and clear of Liens (other than Liens existing under Securities Laws), in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

1.3 Failure to Exercise Option.  This Agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the Option Period, even if the Company has not exercised each Option, provided that if the Company has exercised an Option in accordance with Section 1.1 hereof, this Agreement shall not terminate until the date that is at least five (5) days following the date of the Exercise Notice with respect to such Option to permit the Parties to consummate the Option Closing in accordance with Section 1.2 hereof.

2

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 1.2, this Section 1.3, Section 4.1, Section 4.3 and ARTICLE 5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Company only has the right to exercise the Options during the Option Period.
