Item 1.01. Entry
into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
August 27, 2014, High Performance Beverages Company, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into a securities
purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with an investor (“Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Purchaser purchased
a debenture (the “Debenture”) with a principal balance of $160,000 for a purchase price of $150,000. The Company agreed
to pay $10,000 to the Purchaser for its legal fees and expenses.
The
Debenture matures on March 27, 2015 (“Maturity Date”) and bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum, payable on
the Maturity Date. All overdue accrued and unpaid interest will entail a late fee at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18%
per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. The Company may not prepay the principal amount of the Debenture without
the prior written consent of the holder of the Debenture.
The
Debenture is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holder at a conversion price equal
to the lesser of (i) $0.01, subject to adjustment therein and (ii) 60% of the lowest intra-day trade price during the 25 trading
days immediately prior to a conversion date. The Company shall not effect any conversion of the Debenture to the extent that after
giving effect to such conversion, the holder would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of the common stock
outstanding. The holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase the beneficial ownership
limitation to 9.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding.
The
issuance of securities in the transaction described in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K was exempt from registration
pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of, and Rule 506 under Regulation D promulgated under, the Securities Act.
The
above is a summary of the SPA and the Debenture and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the SPA and the Debenture,
which are included as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, to this Form 8-K.
As
previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October
29, 2013, the Company sold a master promissory note (“Note”) in the principal amount of $48,000 to certain investor
(“Holder”) on October 8, 2013, the outstanding balance of which was increased due to a subsequent event of default.
The Note is convertible into Company’s common stock at the option of the holder at a conversion price equal to 60% of the
lowest intra-day trade price during the 25 trading days immediately prior to a conversion date. In 2014, portions of the Note
were sold by the Holder to two different investors. On August 26, 2014, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement with
the Holder and the Purchaser, pursuant to which the Purchaser purchased the remaining balance of $62,006.53 of the Note from the
Holder.

is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. The issuance and sale of the Securities
will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other than the Purchasers) and
will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under
any of such securities. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding

stock to which the Company is a party or, to the knowledge of the Company, between or among any of the Company’s stockholders.

which (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the
Securities or (ii) could, if there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse

or any Subsidiary, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality,
disclosure or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive
covenant in favor of any third party, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are
in compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to employment and employment practices,
terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where the failure to be in compliance could not, individually or

Permits”), and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation
or modification of any Material Permit.

materially affect the value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such
property by the Company and the Subsidiaries and (ii) Liens for the payment of federal, state or other taxes, for which appropriate
reserves have been made therefor in accordance with GAAP and, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties.

Property Rights has expired, terminated or been abandoned, or is expected to expire or terminate or be abandoned, within two (2)
years from the date of this Agreement. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received, since the date of the latest audited
financial statements included within the SEC Reports, a written notice of a claim or otherwise has any knowledge that the Intellectual
Property Rights violate or infringe upon the rights of any Person, except as could not have or reasonably be expected to not have
a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is
no existing infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken
reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties, except

Internal Accounting Controls. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, the Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance with
any and all applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all
applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the Commission thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof and as of the
Closing Date. The Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable
assurance that: (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability,
(iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the

with respect to any differences. The Company and the Subsidiaries have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and the Subsidiaries and designed such disclosure controls and
procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.
The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company
and the Subsidiaries as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such
date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange
Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their
evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over financial
reporting (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
the internal control over financial reporting of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
(s) Certain
Fees. No brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions are or will be payable by the Company or any Subsidiaries to any
broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other Person with respect to the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with
respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section that may be due in
connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
(t) Private
Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, no registration
under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the Purchasers as contemplated
hereby. The issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder does not contravene the rules and regulations of the Trading Market.

Company. The Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Securities, will
not be or be an Affiliate of, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become an “investment company” subject
to registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating
terminating such registration. The Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading
Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the
listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the
foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements. The Common Stock is currently
eligible for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation and the Company
is current in payment of the fees to the Depository Trust Company (or such other established clearing corporation) in connection
with such electronic transfer.
(x) Application
of Takeover Protections. The Company and the Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render
inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement)
or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s certificate of incorporation (or similar charter documents)
or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and
the Company fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation
as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Securities and the Purchasers’ ownership of the Securities.
(y) Disclosure.
Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the
Company confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents
or counsel with any information that it believes constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information. The
Company understands and confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representation in effecting transactions in
securities of the Company. All of the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchasers regarding the
Company and its Subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Disclosure
Schedules to this Agreement, is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading. The press releases disseminated by the Company during the twelve months preceding the date of
this Agreement taken as a whole do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made and when made, not misleading. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser makes or has made any
representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in
Section 3.2 hereof.
(z) No
Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2,
neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made
any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this offering
of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of (i) the Securities Act which would require
the registration of any such securities under the Securities Act, or (ii) any applicable shareholder approval provisions of any
Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.
(aa) Solvency.
The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation
under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the Closing Date. Schedule 3.1(aa)
sets forth as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which
the Company or any Subsidiary has commitments. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness” means (x)
any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $50,000 (other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary
course of business), (y) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of indebtedness of others, whether
or not the same are or should be reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties
by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business;
and (z) the present value of any lease payments in excess of $50,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance
with GAAP. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness.

local income and all foreign income and franchise tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which
it is subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined

payment of all material taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There
are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of
the Company or of any Subsidiary know of no basis for any such claim.
(cc) No
General Solicitation. Neither the Company nor any person acting on behalf of the Company has offered or sold any of the Securities
by any form of general solicitation or general advertising. The Company has offered the Securities for sale only to the Purchasers
and certain other “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act.
(dd) Foreign
Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor to the knowledge of the Company or any Subsidiary, any agent
or other person acting on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, has: (i) directly or indirectly, used any funds for unlawful
contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any
unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns
from corporate funds, (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Company or any Subsidiary (or made by any person
acting on its behalf of which the Company is aware) which is in violation of law or (iv) violated in any material respect any
provision of FCPA.
(ee) Accountants.
The Company’s accounting firm is set forth on Schedule 3.1(ee) of the Disclosure Schedules. To the knowledge and
belief of the Company, such accounting firm: (i) is a registered public accounting firm as required by the Exchange Act and (ii)

fiscal year ending July 31. 2014.

As of the Closing Date, no Indebtedness or other claim against the Company is senior to the Debentures in right of payment, whether
with respect to interest or upon liquidation or dissolution, or otherwise, other than indebtedness secured by purchase money security
interests (which is senior only as to underlying assets covered thereby) and capital lease obligations (which is senior only as
to the property covered thereby).
(gg) No
Disagreements with Accountants and Lawyers. There are no disagreements of any kind presently existing, or reasonably anticipated
by the Company to arise, between the Company and the accountants and lawyers formerly or presently employed by the Company and
the Company is current with respect to any fees owed to its accountants and lawyers which could affect the Company’s ability
to perform any of its obligations under any of the Transaction Documents.
(hh) Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchasers’ Purchase of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers is acting
solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
thereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in
any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given
by any Purchaser or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions
contemplated thereby is merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents
to each Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been
based solely on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company and its representatives.

(except for Sections 3.2(f) and 4.13 hereof), it is understood and acknowledged by the Company that: (i) none of the Purchasers

securities of the Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued by the Company or to hold the Securities
for any specified term, (ii) past or future open market or other transactions by any Purchaser, specifically including, without
limitation, Short Sales or “derivative” transactions, before or after the closing of this or future private placement
transactions, may negatively impact the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities, (iii) any Purchaser, and
counter-parties in “derivative” transactions to which any such Purchaser is a party, directly or indirectly, may presently
have a “short” position in the Common Stock and (iv) each Purchaser shall not be deemed to have any affiliation with
or control over any arm’s length counter-party in any “derivative” transaction. The Company further understands
and acknowledges that (y) one or more Purchasers may engage in hedging activities at various times during the period that the
Securities are outstanding, including, without limitation, during the periods that the value of the Underlying Shares deliverable
with respect to Securities are being determined, and (z) such hedging activities (if any) could reduce the value of the existing
stockholders' equity interests in the Company at and after the time that the hedging activities are being conducted. The
Company acknowledges that such aforementioned hedging activities do not constitute a breach of any of the Transaction Documents.
(jj) Regulation
M Compliance. The Company has not, and to its knowledge no one acting on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly,

3.2 Representations
and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser, for itself and for no other Purchaser, hereby represents and warrants as

(a) Organization;
Authority. Such Purchaser is either an individual or an entity duly incorporated or formed, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with full right, corporate, partnership, limited liability
company or similar power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents
and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and
performance by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar action, as applicable, on the part of such Purchaser. Each Transaction
Document to which it is a party has been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with
the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance
with its terms, except: (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by
laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as
indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.
(b) Own
Account. Such Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” and have not been registered
under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Securities as principal for its own account
and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act
or any applicable state securities law, has no present intention of distributing any of such Securities in violation of the Securities
Act or any applicable state securities law and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other persons
to distribute or regarding the distribution of such Securities in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities
law (this representation and warranty not limiting such Purchaser’s right to sell the Securities pursuant to the Registration
Statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws). Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities
hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.
(c) Purchaser
Status. At the time such Purchaser was offered the Securities, it was, and as of the date hereof it is, and on each date on
which it converts any Debentures it will be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3),
(a)(7) or (a)(8) under the Securities Act.
(d) Experience
of Such Purchaser. Such Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and
experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment
in the Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk
of an investment in the Securities and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.
(e) General
Solicitation. Such Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication
regarding the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented
at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.
(f) Certain
Transactions and Confidentiality. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not
directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, executed
any purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time
that such Purchaser first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other Person representing the Company
setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to the execution hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio
managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the
investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the representation
set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment
decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement, such Purchaser
has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence
and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute
a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to the identification of the availability of, or securing
of, available shares to borrow in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future.
The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the representations contained in Section 3.2 shall not modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s
right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations and warranties
contained in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this
Agreement or the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby.

OTHER
AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 Transfer
Restrictions.
(a) The
Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities
other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or in
connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company
an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred
Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the
terms of this Agreement.
(b) The
Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1, of a legend on any of the Securities in the following
form:
[NEITHER]
THIS SECURITY [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS CONVERTIBLE] HAS [NOT] BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO,
THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A
LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.
THIS SECURITY [AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY] MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN
ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR”
AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.
The
Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a
registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited
investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement,
if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or
secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel
of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such
pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a
pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities.
(c) Certificates
evidencing the Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof): (i) while
a registration statement (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities
Act, (ii) following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Underlying Shares are eligible for
sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required
under Rule 144 as to such Underlying Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or (iv) if such legend is not required
under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff
of the Commission). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Effective
Date if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. If all or any portion of a Debenture is
converted at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Underlying Shares, or if such
Underlying Shares may be sold under Rule 144 without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public
information required under Rule 144 as to such Underlying Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or if such
legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements
issued by the staff of the Commission) then such Underlying Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that
following the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later
than three Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing
Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”),
deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and
other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the
restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4. Certificates for Underlying Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall
be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the
Depository Trust Company System as directed by such Purchaser.
(d) In
addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Underlying Shares (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date such Securities
are submitted to the Transfer Agent) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend and subject to Section 4.1(c), $10 per Trading
Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day five (5) Trading Days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each Trading Day after
the Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered without a legend. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s
right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing any Securities as required
by the Transaction Documents, and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
(e) Each
Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees with the Company that such Purchaser will sell any Securities
pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements,
or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance
with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates
representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this understanding.
4.2 Acknowledgment
of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its
obligations under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, its obligation to issue the Underlying Shares pursuant
to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction,
regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company may have against any Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive
effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company.
4.3 Furnishing
of Information; Public Information.
(a) If
the Common Stock is not registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act on the date hereof, the Company agrees to
cause the Common Stock to be registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act on or before the 60th calendar day following the
date hereof. Until the earliest of the time that no Purchaser owns Securities, the Company covenants to maintain the registration
of the Common Stock under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof
and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to
the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.
(b)
At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof and ending at such time that
all of the Securities may be sold without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise
without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public
information requirement under Rule 144(c) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to such Purchaser’s
other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by
reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities, an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%)
of the aggregate Subscription Amount of such Purchaser’s Securities on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every
thirtieth (30th) day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such
Public Information Failure is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no longer required for the Purchasers
to transfer the Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144. The payments to which a Purchaser shall be entitled pursuant to
this Section 4.3(b) are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.” Public Information
Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information
Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public
Information Failure Payments is cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments
in a timely manner, such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated
for partial months) until paid in full. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the
Public Information Failure, and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
4.4 Integration.
The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined
in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require
the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of
the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require shareholder approval
prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.
4.5 Conversion
Procedures. The form of Notice of Conversion included in the Debentures set forth the totality of the procedures required
of the Purchasers in order to convert the Debentures. Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Notice of Conversion
shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion
form be required in order convert the Debenture. No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required
of the Purchasers to convert their Debentures. The Company shall honor conversions of the Debentures and shall deliver Underlying
Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.
4.6 Securities
Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date hereof, (i) issue a press release
disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) file a Current Report on Form 8-K, including the
Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto, with the Commission, which Current Report on Form 8-K shall also contain disclosure
on the Purchaser’s purchase of the 2013 Promissory Note on or about the date hereof, which disclosure is satisfactory to
the Purchaser in its sole discretion. From and after the issuance of such press release, the Company represents to the Purchasers
that it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to any of the Purchasers by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company and each Purchaser shall consult with each other in issuing any other press
releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such
press release nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any press
release of any Purchaser, or without the prior consent of each Purchaser, with respect to any press release of the Company, which
consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing
party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any filing
with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except: (a)
as required by federal securities law in connection with (i) any registration statement and (ii) the filing of final Transaction
Documents with the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in which
case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (b).
4.7 Shareholder
Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the Company, any other Person, that
any Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including
any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the
Company, or that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving
Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers.
4.8 Non-Public
Information. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, the Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any other Person acting on its behalf, will provide any Purchaser
or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior
thereto such Purchaser shall have entered into a written agreement with the Company regarding the confidentiality and use of such
information. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting
transactions in securities of the Company.
4.9 Use
of Proceeds. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.9 attached hereto, the Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale

of the Company’s debt (other than payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of the Company’s business and prior
practices), (b) for the redemption of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, (c) for the settlement of any outstanding
litigation or (d) in violation of FCPA or OFAC regulations.

role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person who controls such Purchaser
(within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders,
agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles

harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all
judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such
Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against
the Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is
not an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless
such action is based upon a breach of such Purchaser Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction
Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser Party may have with any such stockholder or any violations by such
Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which constitutes fraud, gross negligence,
willful misconduct or malfeasance). If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may
be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall
have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any
Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but
the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment
thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time
to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a material
conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the
Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will
not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s
prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to the extent that
a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The indemnification
required by this Section 4.10 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation
or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to
any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may
be subject to pursuant to law.
4.11 Reservation
and Listing of Securities.
(a) The
Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Transaction Documents
in such amount as may then be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents.
(b) If,
on any date, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than the Required
Minimum on such date, then the Board of Directors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Company’s certificate
or articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to at least the Required
Minimum at such time, as soon as possible and in any event not later than the 75th day after such date.
(c) The

or quotation and (iv) maintain the listing or quotation of such Common Stock on any date at least equal to the Required Minimum
on such date on such Trading Market or another Trading Market. The Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Common Stock

by timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such
electronic transfer.
4.12 Equal
Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid
to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration
is also offered to all of the parties to this Agreement. Further, the Company shall not make any payment of principal or interest
on the Debentures in amounts which are disproportionate to the respective principal amounts outstanding on the Debentures at any
applicable time. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser by the Company
and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not
in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting
of Securities or otherwise.
4.13 Certain
Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither
it, nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any purchases or sales, including
Short Sales, of any of the Company’s securities during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending
at such time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release
as described in Section 4.6. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such
time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company pursuant to the initial press release
as described in Section 4.6, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction and
the information included in the Transaction Documents and the Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes
any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company
after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press
release as described in Section 4.6, (ii) no Purchaser shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any
securities of the Company in accordance with applicable securities laws from and after the time that the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.6 and (iii) no
Purchaser shall have any duty of confidentiality to the Company or its Subsidiaries after the issuance of the initial press release
as described in Section 4.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment
vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers
have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s
assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that
made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement.
4.14 Form
D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation
D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of any Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall
reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the Purchasers
at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide
evidence of such actions promptly upon request of any Purchaser.
4.15 Capital
Changes. Until the one year anniversary of the Effective Date, the Company shall not undertake a reverse or forward stock
split or reclassification of the Common Stock without the prior written consent of the Purchasers holding a majority in principal
amount outstanding of the Debentures.

they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
5.13 Rescission
and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of)
any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction
Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser
may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand
or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, however, that in the
case of a rescission of a conversion of a Debenture, the applicable Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common
Stock subject to any such rescinded conversion.
5.14 Replacement
of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation),
or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances
shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement
Securities.
5.15 Remedies.
In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of
the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that
monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the
Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation
the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
5.16 Payment
Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document
or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or
exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from,
disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person
under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action),
then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived
and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
5.17 Usury.
To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim,
and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at
any time hereafter in force, in connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by any Purchaser in order
to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any
Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents
for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum
Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of
them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the Transaction
Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to
the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof,
the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from
the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever,
interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any Purchaser with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction
Documents, such excess shall be applied by such Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded
to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at such Purchaser’s election.
5.18 Independent
Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several
and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance
or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any
other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the
Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers
are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the
rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser
to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate
legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, each
Purchaser and its respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through EGS. EGS does not represent all of the
Purchasers and only represents Alpha. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents
for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Purchasers.
5.19 Liquidated
Damages. The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction
Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other
amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages
or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.
5.20 Saturdays,
Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required
or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding
Business Day.
5.21 Construction.
The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction
Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting
party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and
every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse
and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after
the date of this Agreement.
5.22 WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES
EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY
AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.

and state securities laws and regulations.
c) Reliance

the Company may treat the Person in whose name this Debenture is duly registered on the Debenture Register as the owner hereof
for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Debenture is overdue, and
neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Section 4. Conversion.
a) Voluntary
Conversion. At any time after the Original Issue Date until this Debenture is no longer outstanding, this Debenture shall be
convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time (subject
to the conversion limitations set forth in Section 4(d) hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company
a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (each, a “Notice of Conversion”),
specifying therein the principal amount of this Debenture to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected
(such date, the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion
Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered hereunder. No ink-original Notice of Conversion shall
be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be
required. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the
Company unless the entire principal amount of this Debenture, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted.
Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture in an amount equal to
the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the
date of such conversion(s). The Company may deliver an objection to any Notice of Conversion within one (1) Business Day of delivery
of such Notice of Conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative
in the absence of manifest error. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that,
by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and unconverted
principal amount of this Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
b) Conversion
Price. The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to the lesser of (i) $0.01, subject to adjustment
herein (the “Ceiling Price”) and (ii) 60% (the “Conversion Factor”) of the lowest intra-day
trade price during the 25 Trading Days immediately prior to a Conversion Date (the “Conversion Price”).
| c) | Mechanics of Conversion. |
i. Conversion
Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder
shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture to be converted
by (y) the Conversion Price.
ii. Delivery
of Certificate Upon Conversion. Not later than three (3) Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery
Date”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder (A) a certificate or certificates representing
the Conversion Shares which, on or after the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective
Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be required by the Purchase
Agreement) representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of this Debenture and (B) a bank check
in the amount of accrued and unpaid interest. On or after the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date
or (ii) the Effective Date, the Company shall deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Company under
this Section 4(c) electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar
functions.
iii. Failure
to Deliver Certificates. If, in the case of any Notice of Conversion, such certificate or certificates are not delivered to
or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to
the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion, in which event
the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Debenture delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return
to the Company the Common Stock certificates issued to such Holder pursuant to the rescinded Conversion Notice.
iv. Obligation
Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion
of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by
the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against
any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach
or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law
by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the
Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery
shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder. In the event the Holder
of this Debenture shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof, the Company may not refuse conversion
based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any violation of law,
agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion
of all or part of this Debenture shall have been sought and obtained, and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the
Holder in the amount of 150% of the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, which is subject to the injunction, which bond
shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall
be payable to the Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall issue Conversion
Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder
such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii) by the Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder,
in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading Day (increasing
to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading
Day after such Share Delivery Date until such certificates are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall
limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 hereof for the Company’s
failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies
available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive
relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section
hereof or under applicable law.
v. Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder,
if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates by the Share Delivery Date pursuant
to Section 4(c)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open
market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in
satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating
to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition
to any other remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase
price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock that the Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale
price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B)
at the option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Debenture in a principal amount equal to the principal amount
of the attempted conversion (in which case such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares
of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(c)(ii).
For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an
attempted conversion of this Debenture with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any brokerage
commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence,
the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts
payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein
shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver
certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Debenture as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
vi. Reservation
of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized
and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Debenture and payment of interest
on this Debenture, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons
other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Debentures), not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock
as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments
and restrictions of Section 5) upon the conversion of the then outstanding principal amount of this Debenture and payment of interest
hereunder. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and, if the Registration Statement is then effective under the Securities Act, shall
be registered for public resale in accordance with such Registration Statement.
vii. Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Debenture.
As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall
at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied
by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.
viii. Transfer
Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Debenture shall be made
without charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery
of such certificates, provided that, the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of this Debenture
so converted and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the Person or Persons
requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction
of the Company that such tax has been paid. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any
Notice of Conversion and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar
functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares.
d) Holder’s
Conversion Limitations. The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Debenture, and a Holder shall not have the right
to convert any portion of this Debenture, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable
Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with
the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as
defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and
its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture with respect to which
such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion
of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of this Debenture beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and
(ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation
on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, any other Debentures or
the Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes
of this Section 4(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4(d) applies, the determination
of whether this Debenture is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and
of which principal amount of this Debenture is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of
a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Debenture may be converted (in relation
to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and which principal amount of this Debenture is convertible,
in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder will be deemed
to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions
set forth in this paragraph and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In
addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 4(d), in determining the number
of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the
most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case
may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Company’s
transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the
Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.
In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise
of securities of the Company, including this Debenture, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the 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 Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of this Debenture held by the Holder. The Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the
Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4(d), provided that the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving
effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Debenture held by the Holder and the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation provisions of this Section 4(d) shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the
61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this paragraph
shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4(d) to correct
this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation
contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations
contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Debenture.
Section 5. Certain Adjustments.
a) Stock
Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise
makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents
(which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of, or payment
of interest on, the Debentures), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines
(including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues,
in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Ceiling
Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury
shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately
after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become
effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
b) Subsequent
Equity Sales. If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, the Company or any Subsidiary, as applicable, sells or grants
any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant
or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any Person to acquire shares
of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Ceiling Price (such lower price, the “Base
Ceiling Price” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (if the holder of the Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions,
floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued
in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than
the Ceiling Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Ceiling Price on such date of the Dilutive
Issuance), then the Ceiling Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Ceiling Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will
be made under this Section 5(b) in respect of an Exempt Issuance. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no later
than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 5(b), indicating
therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such
notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides
a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 5(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled
to receive a number of Conversion Shares based upon the Base Ceiling Price on or after the date of such Dilutive Issuance, regardless
of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Ceiling Price in the Notice of Conversion.
c) Subsequent
Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 5(a) above, if at any time
the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property
pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder
will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder
could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Debenture
(without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately
before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken,
the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase
Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in
the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase
Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent)
and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto
would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
d) Pro
Rata Distributions. During such time as this Debenture is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or
other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital
or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of
a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a "Distribution"),
at any time after the issuance of this Debenture, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such
Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of
Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Debenture (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including
without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution,
or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the
participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any
such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled
to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of
such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder
until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
e) Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related
transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly,
effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets
in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether
by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange
their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common
Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization
or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted
into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions
consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization,
recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or
party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other
business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture,
the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately
prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(d) on the conversion of
this Debenture), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the
surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result
of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Debenture is convertible immediately
prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(d) on the conversion of this Debenture). For
purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate
Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of Common Stock in such Fundamental
Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting
the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice
as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice
as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Debenture following such Fundamental Transaction. The
Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor
Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Debenture and the other Transaction Documents
(as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(e) pursuant to written agreements in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such
Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the holder of this Debenture, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Debenture
a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Debenture
which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent
to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of this Debenture (without regard to any limitations on
the conversion of this Debenture) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with a conversion price which applies the conversion
price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant
to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such
conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Debenture immediately prior to the consummation
of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence
of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the
date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Debenture and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company”
shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the
obligations of the Company under this Debenture and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity
had been named as the Company herein.
f) Adjustments
to Conversion Factor. If on or after the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective
Date, (a) the electronic transfer by the Company of shares of Common Stock through the Depository Trust Company or another established
clearing corporation is not available or (b) the Common Stock is subject to a “chill” (each such event, a “DTC
Failure” and such date of a DTC Failure, a “DTC Failure Date”), the Conversion Factor shall be reduced
by 5% for each DTC Failure for all Conversions that occur on or after the DTC Failure Date; provided, however, that the maximum
reduction of the Conversion Factor shall be 10%. For example, if a DTC Failure occurs as a result of the Company not being able
to electronically transfer the shares of Common Stock through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation,
then the Conversion Factor shall be reduced to 55% from 60% for all conversions that occur on or after the DTC Failure Date.
g) Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
For purposes of this Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall
be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.
h) Notice
to the Holder.
i. Adjustment
to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 5, the Company shall
promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement
of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice
to Allow Conversion by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on
the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C)
the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required
in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale
or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock
is converted into other securities, cash or property or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary
or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause
to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Debenture, and shall cause to be delivered
to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Debenture Register, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the
applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as
of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants
are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is
expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall
be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein
or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the
extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any
of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form
8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to convert this Debenture during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice
through the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
Section 6. Negative
Covenants. As long as any portion of this Debenture remains outstanding, unless the holders of at least 67% in principal amount
of the then outstanding Debentures shall have otherwise given prior written consent, the Company shall not, and shall not permit
any of the Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:
a) other than
Permitted Indebtedness, enter into, create, incur, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money of
any kind, including, but not limited to, a guarantee, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter
acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;
b) other than
Permitted Liens, enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens of any kind, on or with respect to any of its property
or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;
c) amend
its charter documents, including, without limitation, its certificate of incorporation and bylaws, in any manner that materially
and adversely affects any rights of the Holder;
d) repay,
repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire more than a de minimis number of shares of its Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents other than as to (i) the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares as permitted or required under the
Transaction Documents and (ii) repurchases of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents of departing officers and directors of the
Company, provided that such repurchases shall not exceed an aggregate of $100,000 for all officers and directors during the term
of this Debenture;
e) repay,
repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire any Indebtedness, other than the Debentures if on a pro-rata basis,
other than regularly scheduled principal and interest payments as such terms are in effect as of the Original Issue Date, provided
that such payments shall not be permitted if, at such time, or after giving effect to such payment, any Event of Default exist
or occur;
f) pay
cash dividends or distributions on any equity securities of the Company;
g) enter into
any transaction with any Affiliate of the Company which would be required to be disclosed in any public filing with the Commission,
unless such transaction is made on an arm’s-length basis and expressly approved by a majority of the disinterested directors
of the Company (even if less than a quorum otherwise required for board approval); or
h) enter into
any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.
Section 7. Events of Default.
a) “Event

such event shall be voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any

or otherwise) which default, solely in the case of an interest payment or other default under clause (B) above, is not cured within
3 Trading Days;
ii. the
Company shall fail to observe or perform any other covenant or agreement contained in the Debentures (other than a breach by the
Company of its obligations to deliver shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion, which breach is addressed in clause

ix. the Company
shall fail for any reason to deliver certificates to a Holder prior to the fifth Trading Day after a Conversion Date pursuant to
Section 4(c) or the Company shall provide at any time notice to the Holder, including by way of public announcement, of the Company’s
intention to not honor requests for conversions of any Debentures in accordance with the terms hereof;

b) Remedies
Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs, the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, plus accrued but
unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become,
at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount. Commencing 5 days after the
occurrence of any Event of Default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Debenture, the interest rate on this Debenture
shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. Upon
the payment in full of the Mandatory Default Amount, the Holder shall promptly surrender this Debenture to or as directed by the
Company. In connection with such acceleration described herein, the Holder need not provide, and the Company hereby waives, any
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period
enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration
may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have all rights as a holder
of the Debenture until such time, if any, as the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 8(b). No such rescission
or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of
conflict of laws thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of
the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates,
directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in the City
of New York, Borough of Manhattan (the “New York Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any
transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents),
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 such New York Courts, or such New York Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding.
Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action
or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such
party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Debenture and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient
service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process
in any other manner permitted by applicable law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Debenture or the
transactions contemplated hereby. If any party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Debenture,
then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its attorneys fees and other
costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
e) Waiver.
Any waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Debenture shall not operate as or be construed to
be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Debenture. The failure of the
Company or the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Debenture on one or more occasions shall not be considered
a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Debenture
on any other occasion. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder must be in writing.
f) Severability.
If any provision of this Debenture is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Debenture shall remain in effect,
and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons
and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable
law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of
interest permitted under applicable law. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at
any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury
law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on
this Debenture as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants
or the performance of this Debenture, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits
or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution
of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been
enacted.
g) Remedies,
Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Debenture shall be cumulative
and in addition to all other remedies available under this Debenture and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity
(including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s
right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Debenture. The
Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided
herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof)
shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation
of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause
irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that,
in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies,
to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and
without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall provide all information and documentation to the Holder that
is requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this
Debenture.
h) Next
Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment
shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
i) Headings.
The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Debenture and shall not be deemed to limit
or affect any of the provisions hereof.
j) Subsidiary
Guarantee. Until the obligations of the Company under this Debenture shall have been paid and performed
in full, the Company covenants that it shall promptly direct any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company formed or acquired
after the date hereof to enter into the Subsidiary Guarantee in favor of the Holder, in substantially the form attached hereto
as Exhibit C to the Purchase Agreement.
