(the “Company”), a company incorporated under the laws State of Delaware, entered into a SecuritiesPurchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and between the Company and an institutional investor (the “Investor”),pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Investor a senior convertible note in the principal amount of $2,160,000, issuedwith an eight percent (8.0%) original issue discount (the “Convertible Note”), and a warrant (the “Warrant”)to purchase up to 2,411,088 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”),equal to 50% of the face value of the Convertible Note divided by the volume weighted average price, at an exercise price of $0.480 pershare (the “Exercise Price”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, with the closing of the private placement of theConvertible Note and Warrant, pursuant to which Maxim Group LLC (“Maxim”), acted as placement agent (the “PrivatePlacement”), the Company received gross proceeds of $2,000,000, before fees and other expenses associated with the transaction.The Company intends to use the net proceeds received by it in connection with the Private Placement primarily for working capital, andgeneral corporate purposes.

The Convertible Note matureson April 20, 2025 (unless accelerated due to an event of default, or accelerated up to six installmentsby the Investor), bears interest at a rate of seven percent (7%) per annum, which shall automatically be increased to twelve percent(12.0%) per annum in the event of default and ranks senior to the Company’s existing and future unsecured indebtedness. The ConvertibleNote is convertible in whole or in part at the option of the Investor into shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”)at the Conversion Price (as defined below) at any time following the date of issuance of the Convertible Note. The Convertible Note ispayable monthly on each Installment Date (as defined in the Convertible Note) commencing on the earlier of July 18, 2024 and the effectivedate of the initial registration statement required to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below) in anamount equal the sum of (A) the lesser of (x) $216,000 and (y) the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Note, (B) interestdue and payable under the Convertible Note and (C) other amounts specified in the Convertible Note (such sum being the “InstallmentAmount”); provided, however, if on any Installment Date, no failure to meet the Equity Conditions (as defined in the ConvertibleNote) exits pursuant to the Convertible Note, the Company may pay all or a portion of the Installment Amount with shares of its commonstock. The portion of the Installment Amount paid with common stock shall be based on the Installment Conversion Price. “InstallmentConversion Price” means the lower of (i) the Conversion Price (defined below) and (ii) the greater of (x) 92% of the averageof the two (2) lowest daily VWAPs (as defined in the Convertible Note) in the ten (10) trading days immediately prior to each conversiondate and (y) $0.07. “Equity Conditions Failure” means that on any day during the period commencing twenty (20) tradingdays prior to the applicable Installment Notice Date or Interest Date (each as defined in the Convertible Note) through the later of theapplicable Installment Date or Interest Date and the date on which the applicable shares of Common Stock are actually delivered to theHolder, the Equity Conditions have not been satisfied (or waived in writing by the Holder).

The Convertible Note is convertible,at the option of the Investor, at any time, into such number of shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to the principal amount ofthe Convertible Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest at a conversion price equal to $0.480 (the “Conversion Price”).The Conversion Price is subject to full ratchet antidilution protection, subject to a floor conversion price of $0.07 per share (the “FloorPrice”), a limitation required by the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), andcertain exceptions upon any subsequent transaction at a price lower than the Conversion Price then in effect and standard adjustmentsin the event of stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or similar events.

Alternatively, in the eventof an event of default continuing for 20 trading days and ending with Event of Default Redemption Right Period (as defined in the ConvertibleNote), the Conversion Price may be converted to an “Alternate Conversion Price”, which is defined as the lower of (i)the applicable Conversion Price as in effect on the applicable Conversion Date of the applicable Alternate Conversion (as defined in theConvertible Note), and (ii) the greater of (x) the Floor Price and (y) 90% of the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock during the fifteen (15)consecutive trading day period ending on and including the trading day immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicableConversion Notice. These conversions shall be further subject to Redemption Premiums, as is further described in the Convertible Note.

The Convertible Note may notbe converted and shares of Common Stock may not be issued under the Convertible Note if, after giving effect to the conversion or issuance,the Investor together with its affiliates would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, upon election of the Investor, 9.99%) of theoutstanding Common Stock. In addition to the beneficial ownership limitations in the Convertible Note, the sum of the number of sharesof Common Stock that may be issued under that certain Purchase Agreement (including the Convertible Note and Warrant and Common Stockissued thereunder) is limited to 19.99% of the outstanding Common Stock as of April 19, 2024 (the “Exchange Cap”, whichis equal to 16,007,325 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment as described in the Purchase Agreement), unless shareholder approval(as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (“Stockholder Approval”) is obtained by the Company to issue more than the ExchangeCap.

The Company also agrees thatno Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or inconnection with the engagement of Placement Agent by the Company or for any other reason, except to the extent that any such liabilityis found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directlyfrom such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

These Indemnification Provisionsshall extend to the following persons (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”): Placement Agent, its present and former affiliatedentities, managers, members, officers, employees, legal counsel, agents and controlling persons (within the meaning of the federal securitieslaws), and the officers, directors, partners, stockholders, members, managers, employees, legal counsel, agents and controlling personsof any of them. These indemnification provisions shall be in addition to any liability, which the Company may otherwise have to any IndemnifiedParty.

If any action, suit, proceedingor investigation is commenced, as to which an Indemnified Party proposes to demand indemnification, it shall notify the Company with reasonablepromptness; provided, however, that any failure by an Indemnified Party to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company from its obligationshereunder. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain counsel of its own choice to represent it, and the fees, expenses and disbursem*ntsof such counsel shall be borne by the Company. Any such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities,cooperate with the Company and any counsel designated by the Company. The Company shall be liable for any settlement of any claim againstany Indemnified Party made with the Company’s written consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Placement Agent,settle or compromise any claim, or permit a default or consent to the entry of any judgment in respect thereof, unless such settlement,compromise or consent (i) includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant to all of the Indemnified Parties ofan unconditional release from all liability in respect of such claim, and (ii) does not contain any factual or legal admission by or withrespect to an Indemnified Party or an adverse statement with respect to the character, professionalism, expertise or reputation of anyIndemnified Party or any action or inaction of any Indemnified Party.

No person found liable for a fraudulentmisrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is not also found liable for fraudulent misrepresentation. Therelative benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by the Company and its stockholders, subsidiaries and affiliates shall be deemedto be equal to the aggregate consideration payable or receivable by such parties in connection with the transaction or transactions towhich the Agreement relates relative to the amount of fees actually received by Placement Agent in connection with such transaction ortransactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount contributed by all Indemnified Parties exceed the amount offees previously received by Placement Agent pursuant to the Agreement.

Neither termination nor completionof the Agreement shall affect these Indemnification Provisions which shall remain operative and in full force and effect.

(d) Limitationson Conversions.

(i) BeneficialOwnership. The Company shall not effect the conversion of any portion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convertany portion of this Note pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note and any such conversion shall be null and void and treatedas if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectivelywould beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediatelyafter giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficiallyowned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all otherAttribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which the determinationof such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining,nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversionof the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notesor convertible preferred stock or warrants, including, without limitation, the Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any otherAttribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section3(d)(i).For purposes of this Section3(d)(i), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section13(d) of the 1934Act. For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the conversion of this Notewithout exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in themost recent of (x) the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or otherpublic filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Companyor the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding ShareNumber”). If the Company receives a Conversion Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding sharesof Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of sharesof Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Conversion Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership,as determined pursuant to this Section3(d)(i), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reducednumber of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to such Conversion Notice. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oralrequest of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holderthe number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determinedafter giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder and any other AttributionParty since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of CommonStock to the Holder upon conversion of this Note results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficiallyown, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section13(d)of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficialownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelledab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to theCompany, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after delivery ofsuch notice) or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that(i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is deliveredto the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any otherholder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuantto the terms of this Note in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purposeincluding for purposes of Section13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to convert this Note pursuant tothis paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determinationof convertibility. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformitywith the terms of this Section3(d)(i) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) whichmay be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section3(d)(i) or to make changesor supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not bewaived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.

Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)

B

For purposes of the foregoingformula:

A = the total number of shares with respectto which this Warrant is then being exercised.

B = as elected by the Holder: (i) theVWAP of the shares of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if such ExerciseNotice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executedand delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (asdefined in Rule 600(b)(64) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option ofthe Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice or (z) the ClosingBid Price of the shares of Common Stock as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Exercise Notice if such ExerciseNotice is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter pursuantto Section 1(a) hereof, or (iii) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if thedate of such Exercise Notice is a Trading Day and such Exercise Notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a)hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day.

(f) Limitationson Exercises. The Company shall not effect the exercise of any portion of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right toexercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and any such exercise shall be null and voidand treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other AttributionParties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stockoutstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares ofCommon Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock heldby the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant withrespect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon(A) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Partiesand (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation,any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants, including other Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any otherAttribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 1(f).For purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of this Warrantwithout exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x)the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other publicfiling with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Companyor the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding ShareNumber”). If the Company receives an Exercise Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding sharesof Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall (i) notify the Holder in writing of the number ofshares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Exercise Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficialownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 1(f), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company ofa reduced number of Warrant Shares to be acquired pursuant to such Exercise Notice (the number of shares by which such purchase is reduced,the “Reduction Shares”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable, the Company shall return to the Holder any exerciseprice paid by the Holder for the Reduction Shares. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Companyshall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stockthen outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversionor exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of whichthe Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon exerciseof this Warrant results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more thanthe Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), thenumber of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceedsthe Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and theHolder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. As soon as reasonably practicable after the issuance of theExcess Shares has been deemed null and void, the Company shall return to the Holder the exercise price paid by the Holder for the ExcessShares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such increase not effectiveuntil the sixty-first (61st) day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excessof 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first(61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and theother Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Warrants that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity,the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to bebeneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act. No priorinability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraphwith respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented ina manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(f) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraphor any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained inthis Section 1(f) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitationcontained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

(g) Reservationof Shares.

(i) RequiredReserve Amount. So long as this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance under thisWarrant a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to 100% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as shall be necessaryto satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock under the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitationson exercise) (the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reservedpursuant to this Section 1(g)(i) be reduced other than proportionally in connection with any exercise or redemption of Warrantsor such other event covered by Section 2(a). The Required Reserve Amount (including, without limitation, each increase in the numberof shares so reserved) shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the Warrants based on number of shares of Common Stock issuableupon exercise of Warrants held by each holder as of such time of determination (without regard to any limitations on exercise) or increasein the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that a holdershall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s Warrants, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’sAuthorized Share Allocation. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Warrants shall beallocated to the remaining holders of Warrants, pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrantsthen held by such holders (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

(ii) InsufficientAuthorized Shares. If, notwithstanding Section 1(g)(i), and not in limitation thereof, at any time while any of the Warrantsremain outstanding, the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligationto reserve the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall immediately take allaction necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reservethe Required Reserve Amount for all the Warrants then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soonas practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrenceof such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number ofauthorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statementand shall use its best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and tocause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any suchtime of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstandingshares of Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the Company may satisfy this obligationby obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C. In the event that the Companyis prohibited from issuing shares of Common Stock upon an exercise of this Warrant due to the failure by the Company to have sufficientshares of Common Stock available out of the authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (such unavailable number of shares of CommonStock, the “Authorization Failure Shares”), in lieu of delivering such Authorization Failure Shares to the Holder,the Company shall pay cash in exchange for the cancellation of such portion of this Warrant exercisable into such Authorization FailureShares at a price equal to the sum of (i) the product of (x) such number of Authorization Failure Shares and (y) the greatest ClosingSale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date the Holder delivers the applicable ExerciseNotice with respect to such Authorization Failure Shares to the Company and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under thisSection 1(g); and (ii) to the extent the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock todeliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Authorization Failure Shares, any Buy-In Payment Amount, brokerage commissions andother out-of-pocket expenses, if any, of the Holder incurred in connection therewith. Nothing contained in this Section 1(g) shalllimit any obligations of the Company under any provision of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

(a) StockDividends and Splits. Without limiting any provision of Section 3 or Section 4, if the Company, at any time on or afterthe Issuance Date, (i) pays a stock dividend on one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock or otherwise makesa distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares or (iii)combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock into asmaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall bethe number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of sharesof Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effectiveimmediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustmentpursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision orcombination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this paragraph occurs during the period that an Exercise Price is calculated hereunder,then the calculation of such Exercise Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

(b) Numberof Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 2, the number of Warrant Sharesthat may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment theaggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Pricein effect immediately prior to such adjustment (without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein).

(c) AdjustmentUpon Issuance of Shares of Common Stock. So long as any of the Notes or Warrants are outstanding, if and whenever on or after theIssuance Date, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 2 is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares ofCommon Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company) for a considerationper share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to suchissuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale (such Exercise Price then in effect is referred to herein as the “Applicable Price”)(the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effectshall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price. For all purposes of the foregoing (including, without limitation, determiningthe adjusted Exercise Price and the New Issuance Price under this Section 2(c)), the following shall be applicable:

For purposes of this Section 2(c)(iii),if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Issue Date are increased or decreased in the mannerdescribed in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuableupon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustmentpursuant to this Section 2(c) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.

(iv) Calculationof Consideration Received. If any Option and/or Convertible Security and/or Adjustment Right is issued in connection with the issuanceor sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Company (as determined by the Holder, the “Primary Security,”and such Option and/or Convertible Security and/or Adjustment Right, the “Secondary Securities”), together comprisingone integrated transaction, (or one or more transactions if such issuances or sales or deemed issuances or sales of securities of theCompany either (A) have at least one investor or purchaser in common, (B) are consummated in reasonable proximity to each other and/or(C) are consummated under the same plan of financing) the aggregate consideration per share of Common Stock with respect to such PrimarySecurity shall be deemed to be equal to the difference of (x) the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock was issued(or was deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 2(c)(i) or 2(c)(ii), as applicable) in such integrated transaction solelywith respect to such Primary Security, minus (y) with respect to such Secondary Securities, the sum of (I) the Black Scholes ConsiderationValue of each such Option, if any, (II) the fair market value (as determined by the Holder in good faith) or the Black Scholes ConsiderationValue, as applicable, of such Adjustment Right, if any, and (III) the fair market value (as determined by the Holder) of such ConvertibleSecurity, if any, in each case, as determined on a per share basis in accordance with this Section 2(c)(iv). If any shares of CommonStock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration receivedtherefor (for the purpose of determining the consideration paid for such shares of Common Stock, Option or Convertible Security, but notfor the purpose of the calculation of the Black Scholes Consideration Value) will be deemed to be the net amount of consideration receivedby the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration otherthan cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company (for the purpose of determining the consideration paid for such sharesof Common Stock, Option or Convertible Security, but not for the purpose of the calculation of the Black Scholes Consideration Value)will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case theamount of consideration received by the Company for such securities will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for eachof the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securitiesare issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amountof consideration therefor (for the purpose of determining the consideration paid for such shares of Common Stock, Option or ConvertibleSecurity, but not for the purpose of the calculation of the Black Scholes Consideration Value) will be deemed to be the fair value ofsuch portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options orConvertible Securities (as the case may be). The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will bedetermined jointly by the Company and the Holder. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrenceof an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined withinfive (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointlyselected by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifesterror and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

(v) RecordDate. If the Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividendor other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase sharesof Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of theshares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distributionor the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase (as the case may be).

(d) Holder’sRight of Alternative Exercise Price Following Issuance of Certain Options or Convertible Securities. In addition to and not in limitationof the other provisions of this Section 2, other than any issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock by the Company in which theHolder participates, if, at any time while any of the Purchased Securities remain outstanding, the Company in any manner issues or sellsor enters into any agreement to issue or sell, any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (any such securities, “VariablePrice Securities”) after the Issuance Date that are issuable pursuant to such agreement or convertible into or exchangeableor exercisable for shares of Common Stock at a price which varies or may vary with the market price of the shares of Common Stock, includingby way of one or more reset(s) to a fixed price, but exclusive of such formulations reflecting customary anti-dilution provisions (suchas share splits, share combinations, share dividends and similar transactions) (each of the formulations for such variable price beingherein referred to as, the “Variable Price”), the Company shall provide written notice thereof via facsimile and overnightcourier to the Holder on the date of such agreement and the issuance of such Convertible Securities or Options. From and after the datethe Company enters into such agreement or issues any such Variable Price Securities, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation,in its sole discretion to substitute the Variable Price for the Exercise Price upon exercise of this Warrant by designating in the ExerciseNotice delivered upon any exercise of this Warrant that solely for purposes of such exercise the Holder is relying on the Variable Pricerather than the Exercise Price then in effect. The Holder’s election to rely on a Variable Price for a particular exercise of thisWarrant shall not obligate the Holder to rely on a Variable Price for any future exercises of this Warrant.

(e) OtherEvents.

(f) Calculations.All calculations under this Section 2 shall be made by rounding to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable.The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of theCompany, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issuance or sale of Common Stock.

For theavoidance of doubt, if the adjustment in the immediately preceding sentence would otherwise result in an increase in the Exercise Pricehereunder, no adjustment shall be made.

Upon the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so thatfrom and after the date of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documentsreferring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Companyand shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect asif such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

ii. Deliveryof New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holderand upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrantevidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shallin all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

iii.RescissionRights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, ifthe Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required byits broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, sharesof Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving uponsuch exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x)the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds(y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connectionwith the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B)at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercisewas not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stockthat would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if theHolder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of sharesof Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediatelypreceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicatingthe amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothingherein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, withoutlimitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver sharesof Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

For purposes of the foregoing sentence,the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the numberof shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall excludethe number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrantbeneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised ornonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subjectto a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of itsAffiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficialownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To theextent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relationto other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant isexercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’sdetermination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliatesand Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation,and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as toany group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulationspromulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holdermay rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual reportfiled with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written noticeby the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral requestof a Holder, the Company shall within one Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stockthen outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to theconversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties sincethe date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of CommonStock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial OwnershipLimitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the numberof shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise ofthis Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial OwnershipLimitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of thisparagraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correctthis paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation hereincontained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations containedin this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the stateand federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith orunder any of the other Transaction Documents or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives,and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of anysuch court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action orproceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in anysuch suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreementand agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained hereinshall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall bedeemed or operate to preclude any Buyer from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any otherjurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to such Buyer or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor ofsuch Buyer. The Company (on behalf of itself and each of its Subsidiaries) hereby appoints Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP, legalcounsel to the Company, as its agent for service of process in New York. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAYHAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTIONDOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATEDHEREBY OR THEREBY.

(b) Counterparts.This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement andshall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signatureis delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signaturepage, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed)with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

(c) Headings;Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of,this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine,neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and wordsof like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,”“hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision inwhich they are found.

(d) Severability;Maximum Payment Amounts. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceableby a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amendedto apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shallnot affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, withoutmaterial change, the original intentions of the Parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceabilityof the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the Parties orthe practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the Parties. The Parties will endeavor in good faithnegotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes asclose as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary containedin this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and without implication that the following is required or applicable), it is theintention of the Parties that in no event shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case maybe), or payable to or received by any of the Buyers, under the Transaction Documents (including without limitation, any amounts that wouldbe characterized as “interest” under applicable law) exceed amounts permitted under any applicable law. Accordingly, if anyobligation to pay, payment made to any Buyer, or collection by any Buyer pursuant the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determinedto be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistakeof such Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximumamount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law. Such adjustment shall be effected,to the extent necessary, by reducing or refunding, at the option of such Buyer, the amount of interest or any other amounts which wouldconstitute unlawful amounts required to be paid or actually paid to such Buyer under the Transaction Documents. For greater certainty,to the extent that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by such Buyer under any ofthe Transaction Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term tootherwise be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.
