Leviston
SPA
On
April 1, 2026, NextNRG, Inc. (the “Company”) and Leviston Resources, LLC (“Leviston”) entered into a Securities
Purchase Agreement dated as of April 1, 2026 (the “Leviston SPA”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell, and Leviston
agreed to purchase, a senior secured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $1,724,444 (the “Leviston Note”)
for a purchase price of $1,552,000. The Leviston Note carries an original issue discount of $172,444. Pursuant to the terms of the Leviston
SPA, the Company agreed to issue 243,300 shares of the Company’s common stock to Leviston as additional consideration
for the Leviston Note. Such shares were issued on April 1, 2026.
Leviston
has rollover rights and piggyback registration rights pursuant to the terms of the Leviston SPA. In addition, until the later of (i)
October 1, 2027 or (ii) the date that the balance due under the Leviston Note is paid in full, Leviston has a right of participation
in, and a right of first refusal regarding, any financing transaction. The Company has also granted Leviston “most favored nation”
rights for so long as any obligations remain outstanding under the transaction documents.
The
Leviston SPA contains customary representations, warranties and covenants for a transaction of this type.
The
transactions that were the subject of the Leviston SPA closed on April 1, 2026.
The
foregoing description of the Leviston SPA does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text
of the Leviston SPA, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.
Leviston
Note
The
Leviston Note bears interest at a rate of 10% and matures on October 1, 2026. Interest is guaranteed for the entirety of the six-month
term of the Leviston Note, regardless of any reduction of the principal amount, conversion or prepayment. The Leviston Note is a senior
secured obligation of the Company, with first priority over all current and future indebtedness; provided, however, that the Company
may close equipment financing, with such financing secured by first priority lien(s) against the equipment being financed and second
priority lien(s) (behind Leviston’s security interest) against the Company’s other assets. The Company’s obligations
under the Leviston Note are secured pursuant to the terms of the Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2026, by and between
the Company and Leviston (the “Leviston Security Agreement”).
The
Leviston Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock only upon and following an Event of Default (as defined
in the Leviston Note), at the option of Leviston. Upon an Event of Default, Leviston may convert any portion of the outstanding principal,
accrued interest, default interest, and a fixed conversion fee of $1,950 per conversion into common stock. The conversion price will
be equal to 80% of the average of the three lowest daily volume-weighted average prices (VWAP) of the common stock during the 15 trading
days immediately preceding the conversion date, subject to a floor price of $0.10 per share.
The
Leviston Note contains an equity blocker that prohibits Leviston from converting the Leviston Note if such conversion would result in
Leviston and its affiliates beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock; provided, however, that
Leviston may elect to increase this limitation to 9.99% upon 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, or immediately if Leviston is
not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
In
addition, the Leviston Note contains a hard cap on the number of shares issuable to Leviston at 19.99% of the outstanding shares. Pursuant
to the terms of the Leviston Note, the parties agreed that, notwithstanding any other conversion, adjustment or other provision, the
Company may not issue a cumulative number of shares of common stock to Leviston and its affiliates pursuant to the Leviston Note and
the other transaction documents that would exceed the 19.99% limitation set forth in the Nasdaq Stock Market’s (“Nasdaq”)
Listing Rule 5635(d), unless the Company obtains stockholder approval to exceed such threshold in accordance with Nasdaq rules.
The
Company may prepay the Leviston Note at any time prior to October 1, 2026; provided, however, that (i) if the prepayment date occurs
within 60 days of April 1, 2026, the Company must pay Leviston the outstanding principal amount, all guaranteed interest for the full
six-month term (regardless of how much of the term has elapsed as of the prepayment date), and any other amounts due under the Leviston
Note, with no prepayment premium; and (ii) if the prepayment date occurs after 60 days from April 1, 2026, the Company must pay Leviston
110% multiplied by the sum of (a) the outstanding principal amount, (b) all guaranteed interest for the full six-month term (regardless
of how much of the term has elapsed as of the prepayment date), and (c) any other amounts due under the Leviston Note.
The
Leviston Note contains customary Events of Default, the occurrence of which grant Leviston, among other things, the right to accelerate
the entire unpaid balance of the Leviston Note. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Leviston Note provides that, among other
things, all outstanding obligations under the Leviston Note and related transaction documents, including principal, accrued interest,
monitoring fees, and legal expenses, will automatically increase to 150% of the then-outstanding balance. Additionally, all outstanding
obligations will accrue interest at a default rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law.
On
April 1, 2026, the Company issued the Leviston Note in favor of Leviston pursuant to the terms of the Leviston SPA.
The
foregoing description of the Leviston Note is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Leviston
Note, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2.
Leviston
Security Agreement
On
April 1, 2026, in connection with the issuance of the Leviston Note, the Company and Leviston entered into the Leviston Security Agreement.
dated as of April 1, 2026 (the “Leviston SPA”). Pursuant to the terms of the Leviston Security Agreement, the Company granted
to Leviston a continuing, first-priority security interest in substantially all of its assets to secure the prompt payment and performance
of its obligations under the Leviston Note and related transaction documents. The collateral includes, but is not limited to, the Company’s
accounts, inventory, equipment, general intangibles, deposit accounts, and 100% of the equity interests in the Company’s directly
owned subsidiaries (the “Pledged Equity”). The Company is subject to negative covenants that, subject to certain exceptions,
prohibit the sale, lease, or encumbrance of the collateral without Leviston’s prior written consent. Upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, Leviston may, among other remedies: (i) accelerate all obligations and take possession of the
collateral; (ii) exercise all voting and consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Equity; (iii) appoint a receiver over the Company’s
assets; and/or (iv) sell the collateral at public or private sales to satisfy the outstanding debt.
The
security interest will terminate only upon the full satisfaction or termination of the Company’s obligations under the Leviston
Note.
The
Leviston Security Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants for a transaction of this type.
The
foregoing description of the Leviston Security Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the full text of the Leviston Security Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.3.
Cashera
Business Loan and Security Agreement
On
April 7, 2026, the Company and Cashera Private Credit Inc. (“Cashera”) entered into a Business Loan and
Security Agreement (the “Cashera Loan Agreement”), dated as of April 1, 2026, pursuant to which Cashera provided a
term loan to the Company in the principal amount of $750,000 (the “Cashera Loan”). The Company received net disbursement
proceeds of $712,500 after deduction of a $37,500 origination fee. The Cashera Loan carries a total interest expense of $300,000, resulting
in a total repayment obligation of $1,050,000. The Cashera Loan is scheduled to be repaid in 24 weekly installments of $43,750, beginning
immediately following disbursement, with a maturity date of October 1, 2026. The annual percentage rate for the Cashera Loan is approximately
173.06%.
The
Cashera Loan is secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets, including accounts,
inventory, equipment, deposit accounts and intellectual property. Additionally, the Cashera Loan is personally guaranteed by Michael
D. Farkas, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board and substantial stockholder, and cross-guaranteed by NextNRG Ops LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
The
Cashera Loan Agreement contains various restrictive covenants, including a prohibition on taking additional debt without Cashera’s
prior written consent and a notification requirement if its bank account balances fall below 33% of the balance represented at the time
of funding. If the Company takes additional debt without prior written consent, the Company will incur a $75,000 stacking fee for each
occurrence.
Upon
an event of default, Cashera may, among other things, (i) accelerate the entire unpaid balance, (ii) charge a default fee equal to 25%
of the outstanding balance, (iii) take possession of and sell the collateral, and/or (iv) file a confession of judgment in the State
of Utah, allowing for the summary entry of a legal judgment without trial.
The
Cashera Loan Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants as set forth therein.
The
foregoing description of the Cashera Loan Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the full text of the Cashera Loan Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.4.

2. Representations
and Warranties of the Company
Except
as set forth in the corresponding section of the Disclosure Schedule delivered to the Purchaser concurrently herewith and attached hereto
as Schedule I (the “Disclosure Schedule”) or as disclosed in the Disclosure Materials (as defined below), the
Company, its Subsidiaries, Officers, Directors, and Affiliates, hereby makes the following representations and warranties as of the date
hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Purchaser:
2.1
Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries (as defined below) is a corporation or limited
liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization.
Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has the requisite corporate power to own and operate its properties and assets and to carry
on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified and is authorized
to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its activities and of its
properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing,
as the case may be, would not have or reasonably be expected to result in (i) a material adverse effect on the legality, validity or
enforceability of any Transaction Document, (ii) a material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets, business or financial
condition of Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iii) adversely impair the Company’s ability to perform in any
material respect on a timely basis its obligations under any Transaction Document (any of (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Material Adverse
Effect”).
2.2
Corporate Power. The Company has all requisite corporate power to execute and deliver this Agreement, and to issue the Note and the
Equity Interest, and to enter into the security and pledge agreement of even date herewith (the “Security and Pledge Agreement”)
attached hereto as Exhibit B, and to enter into the other Transaction Documents and to carry out and perform its obligations under
the terms of the Transaction Documents.
2.3
Subsidiaries and Affiliates. Section 3.3 of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and correct description of all of the Company’s
Subsidiaries and Affiliates and the capitalization (including options, warrants and other such equity), pro forma as of the date hereof
reflecting all pending acquisitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Subsidiary” means, with respect to
the Company, any corporation or other entity of which at least a majority of the outstanding shares of stock or other ownership interests
having by the terms thereof ordinary voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors (or persons performing similar functions)
of such corporation or entity (regardless of whether or not at the time, in the case of a corporation, stock of any other class or classes
of such corporation shall have or might have voting power by reason of the happening of any contingency) is at the time directly or indirectly
owned or controlled by the Company or one or more of its Affiliates and the term “Affiliate” means, as to any person
(the “Subject Person”), any other person that directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries controls or
is controlled by, or is under direct or indirect common control with, the Subject Person. For the purposes of this definition, “control”
when used with respect to any person means the power to direct the management and policies of such person, directly or indirectly, whether
through the ownership of voting securities, through representation on such person’s board of directors or other management committee
or group, by contract or otherwise. All references contained herein to the terms Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be applicable to all
Subsidiaries and Affiliates whether they existed as of the date hereof or were created, acquired, or otherwise came to be included in
the foregoing terms subsequent to the date hereof.
2.4
Authorization. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its directors and its stockholders necessary for the authorization
of the Transaction Documents and the execution, delivery and performance of all obligations of the Company under the Transaction Documents,
including, but not limited to, the issuance and delivery of the Note and the Equity Interest, the issuance and delivery of the Common
Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note, and the reservation of the equity securities issuable upon conversion of the Note has been
taken or will be taken prior to the issuance of such securities. The Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note and the shares
of Common Stock reserved for issuance upon conversion of the Note (the “Reserved Amount”) are collectively referred to herein
as the “Underlying Securities.” The Note, the Equity Interest, and the Underlying Securities are collectively referred to
herein as the “Securities.” The Transaction Documents, when executed and delivered by the Company, shall constitute valid
and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to laws of general application relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, the relief of debtors and, with respect to rights to indemnity, subject to federal and state securities laws.
The Underlying Securities, when issued in compliance with the provisions of the Transaction Documents, will be, validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable and free of any liens, encumbrances, security interests or other adverse claim (a “Lien”)
and issued in compliance with all applicable federal and securities laws.
2.5
Governmental Consents. Neither Company nor any Subsidiary is required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give
any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other foreign, federal, state, local or other governmental authority
or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents, other than (a)
applicable Blue Sky filings, (b) such as have already been obtained or such exemptive filings as are required to be made under applicable
securities laws, (c) such other filings that have been made pursuant to applicable state securities laws and post-sale filings pursuant
to applicable state and federal securities laws which the Company undertakes to file within the applicable time periods. Subject to the
accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth herein, the Company has taken all action necessary to exempt:
(i) the issuance and sale of the Note, (ii) the issuance of the Equity Interest, (iii) the issuance of the Underlying Securities upon
due conversion of the Note, and (iv) the other transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents from the provisions of any preemptive
rights, stockholder rights plan or other “poison pill” arrangement, any anti-takeover, business combination or control share
law or statute binding on the Company or to which the Company or any of its assets and properties may be subject and any provision of
the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or other organizational documentation, as the case may be, that is or could
reasonably be expected to become applicable to the Purchaser as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation,
the issuance of the Securities and the ownership, disposition or voting of the Securities by the Purchaser or the exercise of any right
granted to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
2.6
Compliance with Laws. Neither Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any applicable statute, rule, regulation, order or restriction
of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof in respect of the conduct of its business or the ownership
of its properties, which violation would materially and adversely affect the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition or operations
of Company and its Subsidiaries.
2.7
Compliance with Other Instruments. Neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation or default of any term of its organizational
documents, or of any provision of any mortgage, indenture or contract to which it is a party and by which it is bound or of any judgment,
decree, order or writ, other than such violations that would not individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect on the
Company. Except as set forth in Section 3.7 of the Disclosure Schedule or disclosed in SEC Reports (as defined herein), the execution,
delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents
will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with, or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice,
either a default under any such provision, instrument, judgment, decree, order or writ or an event that results in the creation of any
Lien upon any assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture, or nonrenewal of any material permit, license,
authorization or approval applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties.
The sale of the Note and the subsequent issuance of the Underlying Securities are not and will not be subject to any preemptive rights
or rights of first refusal that have not been properly waived or complied with.
2.8
Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in Section 4 hereof, the offer,
issue, and sale of Securities are and will be exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act,
and have been registered or qualified (or are exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit, or qualification
requirements of all applicable state securities laws. No “bad actor” disqualifying event described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i)-(viii)
of the Securities Act (a “Disqualification Event”) is applicable to the Company or, to the Company’s knowledge,
any person listed in the first paragraph of Rule 506(d)(1) of the Securities Act, except for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule
506(d)(2)(ii–iv) or (d)(3), is applicable.
2.9
Capitalization. Company has authorized shares as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Disclosure Schedule. All outstanding shares of capital
stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and have been issued in compliance with all applicable securities
laws. Except for the Equity Interests and the Underlying Securities or as otherwise listed in Section 3.9 of the Disclosure Schedule,
there are no outstanding options, warrants, script rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating
to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or giving any person any right to subscribe
for or acquire, any shares of common stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which Company or any Subsidiary
is or may become bound to issue additional shares of common stock, or securities or rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of
common stock. Except as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Disclosure Schedule, there are no price based anti-dilution or price adjustment
provisions contained in any security issued by Company (or in any agreement providing rights to security holders) and the issue and sale
of the Securities will not obligate Company to issue shares of common stock or other securities to any person (other than the Purchaser)
and will not result in a right of any holder of Company’s securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price
under such securities. Except as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Disclosure Schedule, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is party
to any outstanding agreement providing for issuance of equity or convertible securities at prices that vary with market price or are
subject to reset/repricing (including equity lines or similar arrangements). Except as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Disclosure Schedule,
Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock of each Subsidiary free and clear of any Liens, and all the issued and
outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and
similar rights.
2.10
Regulatory Reports; Financial Statements. Except as set forth in Section 3.10 of the Disclosure Schedule, the Company has filed all
reports and registration statements required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”), including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, for the two years preceding the
date hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was required by law to file such material) (the foregoing materials, including the
exhibits thereto, being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Reports” and, together with the Disclosure Schedule
to this Agreement, the “Disclosure Materials”). As of their respective dates, the Disclosure Materials complied in
all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission
promulgated thereunder, and none of the Disclosure Materials, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted
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, not misleading. Except as indicated in Section 3.10 of the Disclosure Schedule or disclosed in SEC Reports
(as defined herein), the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports comply in all material respects with applicable
accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during
the periods involved (“GAAP”), except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto
and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects
the financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations

hereby. The written materials delivered to the Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents

therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Documents shall exist, it shall be obligated to provide Notice to the Purchaser in the event of a material change to any representation

Form D; Blue Sky Laws. Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide
a copy thereof to the Purchaser promptly after such filing. Company shall take such action as Company shall reasonably determine is necessary
to qualify the Securities for sale to the Purchaser at the applicable closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities
or “blue sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide
evidence of any such action so taken to the Purchaser on or prior to the initial closing.
4.5
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 action or proceeding that may be brought by the Purchaser in order to enforce any right or
remedy under the Note. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Note, it is expressly agreed and provided that
the total liability of the Company under the Note for payments which under Delaware law are 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 which under Delaware
law in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the Note exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if
the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by Delaware law and applicable to the Note 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 Note 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 the Purchaser with respect to indebtedness
evidenced by the Note, such excess shall be applied by the 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 the Purchaser’s election.
4.6
Legal Counsel Opinions. Upon the request of the Purchaser from to time to time, Company shall be responsible (at its cost) for promptly
supplying to Company’s transfer agent and the Purchaser a customary legal opinion letter of its counsel (the “Legal Counsel
Opinion”) to the effect that (i) the resale of the Equity Interest and the Underlying Securities by the Purchaser or its affiliates,
successors and assigns is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act pursuant to Rule 144 (provided the requirements of
Rule 144 are satisfied and provided the Equity Interest and the Underlying Securities are not then registered under the 1933 Act for
resale pursuant to an effective registration statement), or (ii) the Equity Interest and the Underlying Securities have been registered
under the 1933 Act pursuant to an effective registration statement and may be freely resold by the Purchaser or its affiliates, successors
and assigns. Should Company’s legal counsel fail for any reason to issue the Legal Counsel Opinion, the Purchaser may (at Company’s
cost) secure another legal counsel to issue the Legal Counsel Opinion, and Company will instruct its transfer agent to accept such opinion.
Company shall not impede the removal by its stock transfer agent of the restricted legend from any common stock certificate upon receipt
by the transfer agent of a Rule 144 Opinion Letter.
4.7
Listing. The Company will, so long as the Purchaser owns any of the Securities, maintain the listing, quoting, and trading of the
Company’s Common Shares on the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE MKT, and
will comply in all respects with Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, and such exchanges, as applicable, as well as with the SEC, and will timely file (or obtain extensions
in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by Company pursuant to the Exchange
Act. Company shall promptly provide to the Purchaser copies of any notices it receives from any exchanges or electronic quotation systems
on which the common stock is then traded regarding the continued eligibility of the common stock for listing on such exchanges and quotation
systems.
4.8
Information and Observer Rights. Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable
grace period) all reports required to be filed by Company pursuant to the Exchange Act. If Company is not required to file reports pursuant
to such laws, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchaser and simultaneously make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c)
such information as is required for the Purchaser to sell the Securities under Rule 144. Company further covenants that it will take
such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Purchaser
to sell the Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. If
the Company fails to remain a fully reporting company subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, or the Company fails
to remain current in its reporting obligations or to provide currently publicly available information in accordance with Rule 144(c)
and such failure extends for a period of more than fifteen Trading Days (the date which such fifteen Trading Day-period is exceeded,
being referred to as “Event Date”), then in addition to any other rights the Purchaser may have hereunder or under
applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have
been cured by such date) until the information failure is cured, Company shall pay to the Purchaser an amount in cash, as partial liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, equal to one percent (1%) of purchase price paid for the Securities held by the Purchaser at the Event
Date. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior
to the cure of an information failure (except in the case of the first Event Date).

than to monitor its investment in the Company) the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any confidential information obtained from
the Company or from any agent, representative, broker, advisor or other person acting on behalf of the Company pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement (including notice of Company’s intention to file a registration statement), unless such confidential information
(a) is known or becomes known to the public in general (other than as a result of a breach of this Section by the Purchaser), (b) is
or has been independently developed or conceived by the Purchaser without use of the Company’s confidential information, or (c)
is or has been made known or disclosed to the Purchaser by a third party not acting on behalf of the Company without a breach of any
obligation of confidentiality such third party may have to the Company; provided, however, that the Purchaser may disclose confidential
information (i) to its attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their services
in connection with monitoring its investment in the Company; (ii) to any prospective purchaser of any Securities from the Purchaser,
if such prospective purchaser agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 5.10; (iii) to any existing or prospective affiliate,
partner, member, stockholder, or wholly owned subsidiary of the Purchaser in the ordinary course of business, provided that the Purchaser
informs such person that such information is confidential and directs such person to maintain the confidentiality of such information;
or (iv) as may otherwise be required by law, provided that the Purchaser notifies the Company within three (3) business days of such
disclosure and takes reasonable steps to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure. The Company shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to avoid providing the Purchaser with material non-public information, whether directly or indirectly through any agent, representative,
broker, advisor or other person acting on behalf of the Company. In the event the Purchaser believes it has received material non-public
information from the Company that would restrict the Purchaser’s ability to sell or otherwise transfer the Securities, the Purchaser
may notify the Company in writing of such information (the “MNPI Notice”). Upon receipt of an MNPI Notice, the Company shall,
within three (3) business days, either (x) publicly disclose such information in a manner that would cause such information to no longer
constitute material non-public information, or (y) provide written notice to the Purchaser that the Company disputes that such information
constitutes material non-public information and authorize the Purchaser to trade in the Securities notwithstanding possession of such
information. If the Company fails to take either action within such three (3) business day period, the Purchaser shall have the right
(but not the obligation) to publicly disclose such information, and the Company shall not assert any claim against the Purchaser arising
from such disclosure.
4.10
Right of Participation. During the period beginning on the Closing Date, and ending on the later of (i) eighteen (18) months following
the Closing Date or (ii) the date that the balance due under the Note is paid in full, in the event that the Company or any Subsidiary
proposes to offer and sell its securities, whether in the form of debt, Equity Financing (defined below), or any other financing transaction
(each a “Future Offering”), the Purchaser shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the purchase
of the securities being offered in such Future Offering up to an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the maximum Principal
Amount of the Note. For the avoidance of doubt, an “Equity Financing” shall mean Company’s or its Subsidiary’s
sale of its common stock or any securities conferring the right to purchase Company’s or Subsidiary’s common stock or securities
convertible into, or exchangeable for (with or without additional consideration), shares of the Company’s or Subsidiary’s
common stock. In connection with each Participation Right, the Company shall provide written notice
to the Purchaser of the terms and conditions of the Future Financing at least ten business days prior to the anticipated first closing
of such Future Financing (the “FF Notice”). If the Purchaser shall elect to exercise its Participation Right, it shall
notify Company, in writing, of such election at least five business days prior to the anticipated closing date set forth in the FF Notice
(the “Participation Notice”). In the event the Purchaser does not return a Participation Notice to the Company within
such five-business day period, then with respect to such FF Notice, the Participation Right granted hereunder shall terminate and be
of no further force and effect; provided, however, that such Participation Right shall be reinstated if the anticipated closing referenced
in the FF Notice does not occur within thirty business days of the anticipated first closing date specified in such FF notice.
4.11
Right of First Refusal. During the period beginning on the Closing Date, and ending on the later of (i) eighteen (18) months following
the Closing Date or (ii) the date that the balance due under the Note is paid in full, in the event the Company or any Subsidiary has
a bona fide offer of capital or financing from any third party that the Company or any Subsidiary intends to act upon, then the Company
must first offer such opportunity to the Purchaser in writing, to provide such capital or financing to the Company or Subsidiary on the
same terms as each respective third party’s terms. Should the Purchaser be unwilling or unable to provide such capital or financing
to the Company or Subsidiary within 10 Trading Days from Purchaser’s receipt of written notice of the offer (the “Offer
Notice”) from the Company, then the Company or Subsidiary may obtain such capital or financing from that respective third party
upon the exact same terms and conditions offered by the Company to the Purchaser, which transaction must be completed within 60 days
after the date of the Offer Notice. If the Company or Subsidiary does not receive the capital or financing from the respective 3rd
party within 60 days after the date of the respective Offer Notice, then the Company must again offer the capital or financing opportunity
to the Purchaser as described above, and the process detailed above shall be repeated.
4.12
Terms of Future Financings. So long as any obligations of the Company under the Transaction Documents are outstanding, upon any issuance
of (or announcement of intent to effect an issuance of) any security, or amendment to (or announcement of intent to effect an amendment
to) any security that was originally issued before the Issue Date, by the Company or any Subsidiary, with any term that the Purchaser
reasonably believes is more favorable to the Purchaser of such security than to the Purchaser in the Transaction Documents, or with a
term in favor of the Purchaser of such security that the Purchaser reasonably believes was not similarly provided to the Purchaser in
the Transaction Documents, then (i) the Company shall notify the Purchaser of such additional or more favorable term within three (3)
business days of the issuance and/or amendment (as applicable) of the respective security, and (ii) such term, at Purchaser’s option,
shall become a part of the transaction documents with the Purchaser (regardless of whether the Company complied with the notification
provision of this Section). The types of terms contained in another security that may be more favorable to the Purchaser of such security
include, but are not limited to, terms addressing conversion price, conversion price discounts and adjustments, prepayment rate, conversion
lookback periods, interest rates, original issue discounts, stock sale price, private placement price per share, commitment shares, warrant
coverage, and warrant exercise price. If Purchaser elects to have the term become a part of the transaction documents with the Purchaser,
then the Company shall immediately deliver acknowledgment of such adjustment in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser
(the “Acknowledgment”) within three (3) business days of Company’s receipt of request from Purchaser (the “Adjustment
Deadline”), provided that Company’s failure to timely provide the Acknowledgement shall not affect the automatic amendments
contemplated hereby.
4.13
Rollover Rights. So long as the Note is outstanding, if the Company completes any single public offering or private placement of
its equity, equity-linked or debt securities, including but not limited to a “Reg-A Offering” (each, a “Future Transaction”),
the Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, elect to apply as purchase consideration for such Future Transaction: (i) all, or any portion,
of the then outstanding principal amount of the Note and any accrued but unpaid interest, including any amounts that would be added to
the principal outstanding in the event that any redemption right or prepayment right is exercised by either the Purchaser or the Company,
and (ii) any securities of the Company then held by the Purchaser, at their fair value (the “Rollover Rights”). The
Company shall give written notice to Purchaser as soon as practicable, but in no event less than fifteen (15) days before the anticipated
closing date of such Future Transaction. The Purchaser may exercise its Rollover Rights by providing the Company written notice of such
exercise within five Business Days before the closing of the Future Transaction. In the event Purchaser exercises its Rollover Rights,
then such elected portion with respect to (i) and (ii) above, shall automatically convert into the corresponding securities issued in
such Future Transaction under the terms of such Future Transaction, such that the Purchaser will receive all securities (including, without
limitation, any warrants) issuable under the Future Transaction.
4.14
Piggyback Registration Rights. If the Company or any Subsidiary proposes to register any of its Common Shares (other than pursuant
to a Registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form), it will give prompt written notice to the Purchaser of its intention to
effect such registration (the “Incidental Registration”). Within twenty (20) business days of receiving such written notice
of an Incidental Registration, the Purchaser may make a written request (the “Piggy-Back Request”) that the Company include
in the proposed Incidental Registration all, or a portion, of the Underlying Securities owned by the Purchaser. As used herein, Underlying
Securities shall mean the shares issuable upon Conversion of the Note, and the Reserved Amount. The Company will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to include in any Incidental Registration all Underlying Securities which the Company has been requested to register
pursuant to any timely Piggy-Back Request to the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof
as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities so to be registered. In the event the Company breaches any obligation under this Section
4.14, then: (i) the outstanding principal balance due under the Note shall automatically increase by One Hundred Seventy Two Thousand,
Four Hundred Forty Four Dollars ($172,444) (the “LD Amount”), effective as of the date of such breach, without any further
action required by either party; and (ii) such breach shall constitute an Event of Default under the Note. The parties acknowledge and
agree that the LD Amount is not an exclusive remedy and shall not limit, replace, or otherwise affect any right, remedy, or recourse
available to the Purchaser under the Note or any other Transaction Document, all of which shall remain in full force and effect and may
be exercised concurrently with, and in addition to, the LD Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, upon a breach of this Section 4.14, the
Purchaser shall be entitled to both the increase in the outstanding balance pursuant to clause (i) above and the full exercise of all
rights and remedies available under the Note and the other Transaction Documents, including without limitation all default remedies,
conversion rights, and interest accrual at the default rate.
4.15
Transfer Agent Instructions. Concurrently with the execution of an agreement to engage the services of a transfer agent, Company
shall issue irrevocable instructions to Company’s transfer agent to issue certificates, registered in the name of the Purchaser
or its nominee, upon issuance of Underlying Securities, in such amounts as specified from time to time by the Purchaser to Company in
accordance with the terms thereof (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”). In the event that Company proposes
to replace its transfer agent, Company shall provide, prior to the effective date of such replacement, a fully executed
Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions in a form as initially delivered pursuant to this Agreement (including but not limited to the
provision to irrevocably reserved shares of common stock in the Reserved Amount) signed by the successor transfer agent to Company and
Company. Prior to registration of the Securities under the Securities Act or the date on which the Securities may be sold pursuant to
Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of Securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, all such certificates
shall bear the restrictive legend specified in Section 4.8 of this Agreement. Company warrants that: (i) no instruction other than the
Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section will be given by Company to its transfer agent and that the Securities
shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the Note;
(ii) it will not direct its transfer agent not to transfer or delay, impair, and/or hinder its transfer agent in transferring (or issuing)
(electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for Securities to be issued to the Purchaser upon conversion of or otherwise
pursuant to the Note as and when required by the Note and this Agreement; (iii) it will not fail to remove (or directs its transfer agent
not to remove or impairs, delays, and/or hinders its transfer agent from removing) any restrictive legend (or to withdraw any stop transfer
instructions in respect thereof) on any certificate for any Securities issued to the Purchaser upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant
to the Note as and when required by the Note and this Agreement and (iv) it will provide any required corporate resolutions and issuance
approvals to its transfer agent within one (1) business day of each conversion of the Note or issuance of the Equity Interest. If the
Purchaser provides Company, at the cost of Company, with reasonable assurances that a public sale or transfer of such Securities may
be made without registration under the Securities Act or that the Securities can be sold pursuant to Rule 144, Company shall permit the
transfer, and, in the case of the Securities, promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates, free from restrictive
legend, in such name and in such denominations as specified by the Purchaser. Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations
hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Purchaser, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transactions contemplated hereby.
Accordingly, Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section may be inadequate and agrees,
in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Company of the provisions of this Section, that the Purchaser shall be entitled, in
addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate transfer, without the necessity
of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
4.16
Further Assurances. The Purchaser agrees and covenants that at any time and from time to time it will execute and deliver to the
Company such further instruments and documents and take such further action as the Company may reasonably require within three (3) business
days of any such request in order to carry out the full intent and purpose of this Agreement and to comply with state or federal securities
laws or other regulatory approvals.
4.17
Exchange Act Reporting. It shall be an event of default under the Note and this Agreement if the Company fails to remain fully compliant
with the SEC reporting requirements under the Exchange Act (including but not limited to becoming delinquent in its filings).

SENIOR
SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
For
value received, NextNRG, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Borrower”),
hereby promises to pay to the order of Leviston Resources, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State
of Delaware, or registered assigns (the “Holder”) the principal sum of up to One Million, Seven Hundred Twenty Four
Thousand, Four Hundred Forty Four Dollars ($1,724,444) (the “Principal Amount”), together with interest on the Principal
Amount, on the dates set forth below or upon acceleration or otherwise, as set forth herein (or as may be amended, extended, renewed
and refinanced, collectively, this “Note”). The “Interest Rate” shall reset daily and accrue at
a rate equal to ten percent (10%). In no event shall the Interest Rate exceed the maximum rate allowed by law; any interest payment which
would for any reason be unlawful under applicable law shall be applied to principal.
The
consideration to the Borrower for this Note is up to One Million, Five Hundred Fifty Two Thousand Dollars ($1,552,000) (the “Consideration”)
to be paid to be paid on or after the execution hereof (the “Closing”). At the Closing, Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000)
of the Consideration shall be withheld by the Holder and applied directly to the payment of the Holder’s legal fees in connection
with the preparation and negotiation of this Note and the related transaction documents.
The
maturity date (“Maturity Date”) shall be six (6) months after the Issue Date. The principal sum, as well as interest
and other fees shall be due and payable in accordance with the payment terms set forth in Article I herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Maturity Date for this Note, shall be no later than the date upon which the Borrower. Subject to Section 1.5 below, this Note may
not be prepaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein.
This
Note carries an original issue discount of Two Hundred Twenty Eight Thousand Dollars ($172,444) (the “OID”), which
is included in the principal balance of this Note. Thus, the purchase price of this Note shall be One Million, Five Hundred Fifty Two
Thousand Dollars ($1,552,000), computed as follows: the Principal Amount minus the OID.
It
is further acknowledged and agreed that the Principal Amount owed by Borrower under this Note shall be increased by the amount of all
reasonable expenses incurred by the Holder in connection with the collection of amounts due, or enforcement of any terms pursuant to,
this Note. All such expenses shall be deemed added to the Principal Amount hereunder to the extent such expenses are paid or incurred
by the Holder.
This
Note is issued by the Borrower to the Holder pursuant to the terms of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement even date herewith (the
“Purchase Agreement”), terms of which are incorporated by reference and made part of this Note. Each capitalized term
used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement. As used herein, the term “Trading
Day” means any day that the Common Shares are listed for trading or quotation on any US based exchange or electronic quotation
systems on which the Common Shares are then traded.
This
Note shall be a senior secured obligation of the Borrower, with first priority over all current and future Indebtedness (as defined below)
of the Borrower and any subsidiaries, whether such subsidiaries exist on the Issue Date or are created or acquired thereafter (each a
“Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Subsidiaries”). The obligations of the Borrower under this
Note are secured pursuant to the terms of the security and pledge agreement, of even date herewith, by and between the Borrower and the
Holder (the “Security and Pledge Agreement” and collectively with the Purchase Agreement, and other related ancillary
documents and agreements executed in connection thereto, the “Transaction Documents”), a copy of which is attached
hereto as Exhibit C. The terms of the Transaction Documents are incorporated by reference and made part of this Note. With respect to
any Subsidiary created or acquired subsequent to the Issue Date, Borrower agrees to cause such Subsidiary to execute any documents or
agreements that would bind the Subsidiary to the terms herein and in the other Transaction Documents.
This
Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive
rights or other similar rights of shareholders or members, as applicable, of Borrower, and will not impose personal liability upon the
holder thereof.
In
addition to the terms above, the following terms shall also apply to this Note:
ARTICLE
I. PAYMENTS
1.1
Principal Payments. The Principal Amount shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.
1.2
Interest Payments. Interest on this Note (i) is charged on a monthly basis (that is, on each monthly anniversary of the Issue
Date (the “Interest Date”), the amount of accrued interest is computed on the basis of a 360 day year and the actual
number of days elapsed, and shall accrue on the sum of the principal amount plus, if applicable, any accrued and previously due but unpaid
interest); (ii) is payable at maturity; and (iii) is guaranteed to the Holder for the entirety of the six (6) month term of this Note,
without regard to an acceleration of the Maturity Date, based on the total Principal Amount, without regard to a reduction of the Principal
Amount resulting from, without limitation, any conversion or, subject to Section 1.5 below, prepayment by Borrower.
1.3
Other Payment Obligations. All payments, fees, penalties, and other charges, if any, due under this Note shall be payable pursuant
to the terms contained herein, but in any case, shall be payable no later than the Maturity Date.
1.4
Gross up. If any taxes are levied or imposed on payments, fees, penalties, and other charges, if any, due under this Note or the
other Transaction Documents, Borrower agrees to pay the full amount of such taxes and such additional amounts as may be necessary so
that every payment of all amounts due under the Note or the other Transaction Documents, including any amount paid pursuant to this Section
1.4 after withholding or deduction for or on account of any taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for under this Note or the
other Transaction Documents.
1.5
Prepayment. Borrower shall have the right at any time prior to the Maturity Date, upon five (5) days’ prior written notice
to the Holder (the “Prepayment Notice”), to prepay this Note as follows: (a) if the Prepayment Date (as defined below) occurs
within sixty (60) days of the Issue Date, Borrower may prepay this Note by making a payment to Holder equal to the sum of (i) the outstanding
Principal Amount, (ii) all Guaranteed Interest for the full six (6) month term (regardless of how much of the term has elapsed as of
the Prepayment Date), and (iii) any other amounts due under this Note, with no prepayment premium; and (b) if the Prepayment Date occurs
after sixty (60) days from the Issue Date, Borrower may prepay this Note by making a payment to Holder equal to 110% multiplied by the
sum of (i) the outstanding Principal Amount, (ii) all Guaranteed Interest for the full six (6) month term (regardless of how much of
the term has elapsed as of the Prepayment Date), and (iii) any other amounts due under this Note (the amount payable under either clause
(a) or (b), as applicable, the “Prepayment Amount”). The Prepayment Notice must be received by Holder no later than five
(5) days prior to the date that Borrower proposes to remit the Prepayment Amount (the “Prepayment Date”). Holder may convert
any or all of this Note into shares of Common Stock prior to the Prepayment Date. If Borrower does not remit the Prepayment Amount on
or before the Prepayment Date, then (i) the Prepayment Notice and the Prepayment right granted hereunder shall be canceled, (ii) Borrower
shall thereafter not be permitted to prepay this Note, and (iii) Holder’s right to convert any or all of this Note into shares
of Common Stock shall be reinstated.
1.6
If any payment (other than a payment due at maturity or upon default) is not made on or before its due date, the Holder may at its discretion
collect a delinquency charge equal to the greater of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) or five (5%) percent of the unpaid amount. The unpaid
balances on all obligations payable by Borrower and due to Holder pursuant to the terms of this Note, shall in addition to other remedies
contained herein, bear interest after default or maturity at an annual rate equal to the Default Interest rate.
1.7
All payments of principal and interest due hereunder (to the extent not converted into Borrower’s common stock (the “Common
Stock” or “Common Shares”)) shall be paid by wire transfer or ACH (automated clearing house) transfer to
the account specified in wire instructions provided by the Holder to the Borrower in writing. Payments will be applied to amounts due
under this Note in such order as the Holder shall determine in its sole discretion. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms
of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the preceding day which is a business day.
As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial
banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.
ARTICLE
II. CONVERSION RIGHTS
2.1
Conversion Right. Upon and following the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in Article IV), the Holder shall have the
right, at the Holder’s option, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount and accrued and unpaid
interest of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares of Borrower or other securities into which such Common Shares
shall hereafter be changed or reclassified (each, a “Conversion Share”) at the conversion price (the “Conversion
Price”) determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder
be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number
of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than Common Shares which may be deemed beneficially owned
through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Note or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of Borrower
subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein, and, if applicable, net of any shares
that may be deemed to be owned by any person not affiliated with the Holder who has purchased a portion of the Note from the Holder)
and (2) the number of Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination
of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding
Common Shares. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance
with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D-G
thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso, provided, further, however, that the limitations on conversion
may be waived (up to a maximum of 9.99%) by the Holder upon, at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days’ prior notice
to Borrower (the “Waiver Notice”), and the provisions of the conversion limitation in effect prior to the waiver,
shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in such Waiver Notice).
Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements with respect to the Waiver Notice, if the Holder is not subject to the reporting requirements
under Section 13 of the Exchange Act with respect to the securities of the Borrower, then the Holder may elect to waive the limitations
(up to a maximum of 9.99%) immediately upon providing a Waiver Notice to the Borrower, and the provisions of the conversion limitation
in effect prior to the waiver, shall continue to apply only as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in such Waiver Notice. The
beneficial ownership limitation described in this Section 2.1 shall be referred to hereinafter as the “Beneficial Ownership
Limitation.” The number of Common Shares to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the
Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion,
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to Borrower by the Holder in accordance
with Section 2.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or
reasonably expected to result in, notice) to Borrower before 8:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion
Date”). The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of: (1)
the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion; plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued and unpaid interest;
provided, however, that at the option of Holder, the accrued and unpaid interest can be converted prior to any other amounts under the
Note, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date; plus (3) at the Holder’s
option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2); plus (4) a fixed conversion
fee of One Thousand Nine Hundred Fifty Dollars ($1,950) per conversion, which shall be included in each Conversion Amount regardless
of actual expenses incurred; plus (5) at the Holder’s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 2.3 and 2.4(g)
hereof; plus (6) at the Holder’s option, any other amounts due and owing to the Holder under this Note or any Transaction Document.
The Holder shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to designate which amounts due under this Note are included in any Conversion
Amount and the order in which such components are applied.
2.2
Conversion Price.
(a)
Calculation of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be equal to 80% of the average of the three (3) lowest daily VWAPs of the
Common Shares during the fifteen (15) Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date,
with a floor of $0.10; provided that if the Conversion Notice is delivered after the close of regular trading hours on the Conversion
Date, such period shall instead end on the Conversion Date. As used herein, “VWAP” means, for any Trading Day, the
volume weighted average price of the Common Shares as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (or a comparable, reliable reporting service selected
by the Holder in good faith) for trades executed during regular trading hours on the principal Trading Market for such Trading Day.
(b)
Conversion Price Adjustments.
(1)
Intentionally Omitted.
(2)
Common Share Distributions and Splits. If Borrower, at any time while this Note is outstanding: (i) pays a distribution on its
Common Shares or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in Common Shares on its Common Shares; (ii) subdivides outstanding
Common Shares into a larger (or smaller) number of shares; or (iii) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of Common Shares,
any Common Shares of Borrower, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number
of Common Shares (excluding any treasury shares of Borrower) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall
be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such event.
(3)
Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Note is outstanding, (i) Borrower effects any merger or consolidation of Borrower
with or into another person, (ii) Borrower effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series
of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by Borrower or another person) is completed pursuant to which
holders of Common Shares are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (iv) Borrower effects
any reclassification of the Common Shares or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Shares are effectively converted
into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon
any subsequent conversion of this Note, 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, the same kind and amount of securities, cash
or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately
prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of 1 Common Share (the “Alternate Consideration”). 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 1 Common Share in such Fundamental Transaction, and Borrower 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.
(4)
Anti-dilution Adjustment. If at any time while this Note is outstanding, Borrower sells, grants, or otherwise makes a disposition
of Common Shares, or sells, grants, or otherwise makes a disposition of other securities (or in the case of securities existing on the
Issue Date, amends such securities) convertible into, exercisable for, or that would otherwise entitle any person or entity the right
to acquire Common Shares, or announces its intention, or files any document with the SEC or other regulatory body that reflects its intention
to do of any of the foregoing, at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (such lower price, the “Base
Conversion Price” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being agreed that if the
holder of the Common Shares or other securities 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 Common Shares at an effective price per share that is lower than the
Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance,
and the Base Conversion Price shall then be adjusted to equal the lowest of such issuance price), then the Conversion Price shall be
reduced to a price equal the Base Conversion Price as it may be adjusted as provided for above. Such adjustment shall be made whenever
such Common Shares or other securities are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 2.2(b)(4)
in respect of an Exempt Issuance. For purposes of this Section 2.2(b)(4) an “Exempt Issuance” means an issuance of
Common Shares or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares (i) to employees or directors of,
or consultants or advisors to, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to a plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board
of Directors of Borrower, (ii) to banks, equipment lessors or other financial institutions, or to real property lessors, pursuant to
a debt financing, equipment leasing or real property leasing transaction approved by the Board of Directors of Borrower, (iii) to suppliers
or third party service providers in connection with the provision of goods or services pursuant to transactions approved by the Board
of Directors of Borrower, (iv) pursuant to the acquisition of another corporation or other entity by Borrower by merger, purchase of
substantially all of the assets or other reorganization or pursuant to a joint venture agreement, provided that such issuances are approved
by the Board of Directors of Borrower, (v) to third parties in connection with collaboration, technology license, development, marketing
or other similar agreements or strategic partnerships approved by the Board of Directors of Borrower, or (vi) shares with respect to
which the Holder waives its anti-dilution rights granted hereby; provided, however, that any such issuance described in (iii) through
(v) shall only be to a person (or to the equity holders of a person) which is, itself or through its Subsidiaries, an operating business,
or an owner of an asset that is used in a business, that is synergistic with the business of Borrower and shall provide to Borrower additional
benefits in addition to the investment of funds, and provided however, that none of (i) through (v) above shall include a transaction
in which Borrower is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing
in securities. In the event of an issuance of securities involving multiple tranches or closings, any adjustment pursuant to this Section
2.2(b)(4) shall be calculated as if all such securities were issued upon distribution of the initial tranche. For the avoidance of doubt,
in the event the Conversion Price has been adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.2(b)(4) and the Dilutive Issuance that triggered such
adjustment does not occur, is not consummated, is unwound or is cancelled after the facts for any reason whatsoever, in no event shall
the Conversion Price be readjusted to the Conversion Price that would have been in effect if such Dilutive Issuance had not occurred
or been consummated.
(5)
Notice to the Holder. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 2.2(b), Borrower shall
within two (2) business days deliver to the Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth
a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, provided that Borrower’s failure to timely provide the notice shall not
affect the automatic adjustments contemplated hereby.
2.3
Authorized Shares. Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, Borrower will reserve from its authorized
and unissued Common Shares a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Shares upon
the full conversion of this Note. Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved seven (7) times the number of shares
that is actually issuable upon full conversion of the Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Note in effect from time to time, which,
if cannot be determined shall be estimated in good faith by Borrower) it being acknowledged and agreed by the parties that for the initial
issuance of the Note, 41,666,667 shares of Common Shares is sufficient (the “Reserved Amount”). The Reserved Amount
shall be increased from time to time in accordance with Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Borrower represents that upon issuance,
such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if Borrower shall issue any securities or make
any change to its capital structure which would change the number of Common Shares into which the Note shall be convertible at the then
current Conversion Price, Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number
of Common Shares authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Note, including but not limited
to authorizing additional shares or effectuating a reverse split. Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer
agent by letter, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B to issue certificates for the Common Shares issuable upon conversion
of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged
with the duty of executing Common Share certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for Common Shares in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Note. Borrower further covenants that so long as any obligation under this Note remains outstanding,
Borrower will not establish a reserve of its Common Shares for the benefit of any party other than the Holder, without prior approval
in writing by Holder. Failure by Borrower to maintain the Reserved Amount, or the failure by Borrower to be engaged with a transfer agent
and subject to the terms of an irrevocable instruction letter according to the terms herein, or the establishment of a reserve without
prior approval as required above, will be considered an Event of Default under Section 4.1.2 of the Note.
2.4
Method of Conversion.
(a)
Mechanics of Conversion. Subject to Section 2.1, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part, by (A) submitting
to Borrower or its transfer agent, a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched
on the Conversion Date prior to 8:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 2.4(b), surrendering this Note at the
principal office of Borrower.
(b)
Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in
accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to Borrower unless the entire unpaid
principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted
and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and Borrower, so as not to require
physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of Borrower shall,
prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of
this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note,
the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
(c)
Payment of Taxes. Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
issue and delivery of Common Shares or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other than that of the Holder
(or in street name), and Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other securities or property unless and
until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such shares are to be held for the Holder’s
account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to Borrower the amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction
of Borrower that such tax has been paid.
(d)
Delivery of Common Shares Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or
other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section
2.4, Borrower shall issue and deliver to or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for Common
Shares issuable upon such conversion by the end of the second business day after such receipt (the “Deadline”) (and,
solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof.
Failure to issue and deliver shares or cause to be issued and delivered shares by the Deadline as described above, will be considered
an Event of Default under Section 4.1.2 of the Note.
(e)
Obligation of Borrower to Deliver Common Shares. Upon receipt by Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed
to be the holder of record of the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued
and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless Borrower defaults on its obligations under
this Article II, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to
receive the Common Shares or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have
given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Shares
shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent
with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure
or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation
or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance
which might otherwise limit such obligation of Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion. The Conversion Date specified
in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is received by Borrower before 8:00 p.m.,
New York, New York time, on such date.
(f)
Delivery of Common Shares by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Shares issuable
upon conversion, provided Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities
Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in Section
2.1 and in this Section 2.4, Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Shares
issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal
Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system. If the Borrower is not registered with DTC as of the Issue Date, the Borrower shall
be required to register with DTC within thirty (30) days of the Issue Date, and the provisions of this paragraph shall apply after such
registration. Failure to become DTC registered or maintain DTC eligibility as provided herein shall be an Event of Default under Section
4.1.22 of this Note.
(g)
Failure to Deliver Common Shares Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies,
including actual damages and/or equitable relief, or other remedies provided to Holder herein, the parties agree that if Borrower causes
the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note to not be delivered by the Deadline (such undelivered shares referred to herein
as the “Undelivered Shares”), Borrower shall pay to the Holder in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty,
the sum of: (i) the greater of (x) $1,000 per day for each day beyond the Deadline that Borrower fails to deliver such Common Shares,
or (y) for each $1,000 of Undelivered Shares subject to such Conversion (valued based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of
the applicable Conversion Notice), $25 per Trading Day (increasing to $35 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated
damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after Deadline until such Undelivered Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such Conversion,
and (ii) the product of the number of Undelivered Shares multiplied by the difference between the highest trade price and the lowest
trade price during the period beginning on the date that such conversion was submitted, and the date on which the Shares are delivered
to Holder’s Prime Broker and are available to be sold. Such cash amount shall, at the option of the Holder, either (A) be due and
payable in cash within five (5) days after written notice from the Holder demanding payment, or (B) be automatically added to the principal
amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal
amount shall be convertible into Common Shares in accordance with the terms of this Note. Borrower agrees that the right to convert is
a valuable right to the Holder, and as such, Borrower will not take any actions to hamper, delay or prevent any Holder conversion of
the Note. The damages resulting from such failure to deliver Undelivered Shares, or an attempt to frustrate or interference with Holder’s
Conversion Right, are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the Borrower and the Holder acknowledge and agree that (i)
the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred as a result of a failure to deliver Undelivered Shares is incapable or is difficult
to precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified in this Section 2.4(g) bear a reasonable relationship to, and are not plainly or grossly
disproportionate to, the probable loss likely to be incurred in connection with such failure, and (iii) the Parties acknowledge that
the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 2.4(g) are justified.
(h)
Right to Amend Notice of Conversion. On or before the 1st Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Notice of Conversion,
with respect to a conversion, if the applicable Conversion Price is less than the “conversion price” specified on such Notice
of Conversion, the Holder may deliver an updated Notice of Conversion to the Company correcting the Conversion Price (and the aggregate
Conversion Amount) as specified in such Notice of Conversion (provided, that if such updated Notice of Conversion is not delivered to
the Company on or prior to 12:00 p.m. (local time in New York, NY) on the Trading Day immediately following the applicable Conversion
Date, the Deadline shall be extended by one (1) Trading Day).
(i)
Adjustment Due to Market Price. If at any time the Market Price, as determined on the date of each conversion, is less than the
Conversion Price, then the outstanding principal amount of this Note shall be automatically increased immediately following each such
conversion by the result of the Conversion Price minus the Market Price multiplied by the amount of shares of common stock being issued
with respect to such conversion , and interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note. “Market Price”
shall mean the lowest trading price for the Common Stock during ten (10) Trading Days prior to the applicable date of conversion. For
example, the Conversion Price is $0.50 and if the Market Price is $0.40 and the number of shares issued upon conversion is 10,000 shares,
then the outstanding principal amount of this Note shall be increased by $1,000.00 ($0.50 - $0.40 = $0.10 multiplied by 10,000 = 1,000.00)
immediately following such conversion. For the avoidance of doubt, the adjustment provided for in this Section 2.4(i) is intended to
ensure that the Holder is made whole with respect to any conversion where the number of shares issued is determined by reference to a
price per share that is higher than the Conversion Price to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, by increasing the outstanding
principal amount of this Note by an amount equal to the economic difference between such higher price and the applicable Conversion Price
multiplied by the number of shares issued.
(j)
Issuance Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Transaction Documents, the
Company and Holder agree that the total cumulative number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued to Holder and its Affiliates hereunder
and under the other Transaction Documents may not exceed the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) (“Nasdaq 19.99% Cap”),
except that such limitation will not apply following Shareholder Approval, as defined in the Purchase Agreement. If the Company has not
obtained Shareholder Approval for the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note in excess of the Nasdaq
19.99% Cap in accordance with the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), and such Shareholder Approval is required pursuant to
the rules of the principal Trading Market, then the Company may not issue any shares of Common Stock in excess of the amount permitted
under the rules of the principal Trading Market. For avoidance of doubt, unless and until any required Shareholder Approval is obtained
and effective, notes issued to any registered broker-dealer as a fee in connection with the Securities issued pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement shall provide that such notes shall not be converted unless and until such Shareholder Approval is obtained and effective.
2.5
Concerning the Common Shares. The Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i)
such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) Borrower or its transfer agent shall have
been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration
or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”)
or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise
transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 2.5 and who is an Accredited Investor. Except as otherwise provided (and subject
to the removal provisions set forth below), until such time as the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered
under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular
date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note that has not been so
included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption
that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:
NEITHER
THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE
HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED
FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER AND ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY),
IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A
UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN
OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.
The
legend set forth above shall be removed and Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend
if (i) Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions
of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Shares may be made without registration
under the Act, which opinion shall be accepted by Borrower (which acceptance shall be subject to and conditioned on any requirements,
if any, of the its transfer agent, the exchange on which Borrower is then trading or other applicable laws, rules or regulations) so
that the sale or transfer is effected or (ii) in the case of the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is
registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to
Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold. In the event
that Borrower does not accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an
exemption from registration, such as Rule 144 or Regulation S, at the Deadline, it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to
Section 4.1.2 of the Note; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower is legally unable to accept such opinion as a result
of any of Borrower’s transfer agent requirements, the requirements of the exchange on which Borrower is then traded, or other applicable
laws, rules or regulations, Borrower’s non-acceptance shall be an Event of Default pursuant to Section 4.1.25.
2.6
Status as Shareholder. Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by a Holder, (i) the shares covered thereby (other than the shares,
if any, which cannot be issued because their issuance would exceed such Holder’s allocated portion of the Reserved Amount or Maximum
Share Amount) shall be deemed converted into Common Shares and (ii) the Holder’s rights as a Holder of such converted portion of
this Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such Common Shares and to any remedies provided
herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure by Borrower to comply with the terms of this Note.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder has not received certificates for all Common Shares prior to the tenth (10th) business day
after the expiration of the Deadline with respect to a conversion of any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless the Holder
otherwise elects to retain its status as a holder of Common Shares by so notifying Borrower) the Holder shall regain the rights of a
Holder of this Note with respect to such unconverted portions of this Note and Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted
Note to the Holder or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of this Note has not been
converted. In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies (including, without limitation, (i) the right to receive
Conversion Default Payments pursuant to Section 2.4 to the extent required thereby for such Conversion Default and any subsequent Conversion
Default and (ii) the right to have the Conversion Price with respect to subsequent conversions adjusted upon an Event of Default (if
applicable), for Borrower’s failure to convert this Note.
ARTICLE
III. RANKING, CERTAIN COVENANTS, AND POST CLOSING OBLIGATIONS
3.1
Distributions on Common Shares. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not without
the Holder’s written consent (a) pay, declare or set apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution (whether in cash,
property or other securities) on the Common Shares (or other capital securities of the Borrower) other than dividends on Common Shares
solely in the form of additional Common Shares or (b) directly or indirectly or through any Subsidiary make any other payment or distribution
in respect of Common Shares (or other securities representing its capital) except for distributions that comply with Section 3.7 below.
3.2
Restrictions on Variable Rate Transactions. Unless approved by the Holder, while any Note is outstanding, Borrower and each Subsidiary
shall not enter into an agreement or amend an existing agreement to effect any sale of securities
involving, or convert any securities previously issued under, a Variable Rate Transaction. The term “Variable Rate Transaction”
means a transaction in which Borrower or any Subsidiary (i) issues or sells any convertible securities either (A) at a conversion, exercise
or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of, or quotations for, the Common Shares at
any time after the initial issuance of such convertible securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject
to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such convertible securities or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent
events directly or indirectly related to the business of Borrower or the Subsidiary, as the case may be, or the market for the Common
Shares, or (ii) enters into any agreement (including, without limitation, an “equity
line of credit” or an “at-the-market offering”) whereby Borrower or any Subsidiary may sell securities at a future
determined price (other than standard and customary “preemptive” or “participation” rights). The Holder shall
be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against Borrower and its Subsidiaries to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in
addition to any right to collect damages.
3.3
Restrictions on Certain Transactions. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note and unless approved in
writing by the Holder (which such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower shall not directly or indirectly enter into
a transaction structured in accordance with, based upon, or related or pursuant to, in whole or in part, Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities
Act (“3(a)(10) Transaction”).
3.4
Restriction on Common Share Repurchases. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, Borrower shall not
without the Holder’s written consent redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (whether for cash or in exchange for property or other
securities or otherwise) in any one transaction or series of related transactions any Common Shares (or other securities representing
its capital) of Borrower or any warrants, rights or options to purchase or acquire any such shares; except for the repurchase of shares
at a nominal price in connection with rights under an agreement with an employee or consultant of the Borrower whose shares have been
forfeited as a result of such employee or consultant’s ceasing to provide services to the Borrower.
3.5
Payments from Future Funding Sources. The Borrower shall pay to the Holder on an accelerated basis, any outstanding Principal
Amount of the Note, along with all unpaid interest, and fees and penalties, if any (including but not limited to any prepayment premium
under Section 1.5), from the sources of capital below, at the Holder’s discretion, it being acknowledged and agreed by Holder that
Borrower shall have the right to make Bona Fide payments to vendors with Common Shares:
3.5.1
Future Financing Proceeds. One hundred percent (100%) of the net proceeds of any future financings by Borrower or any Subsidiary,
whether debt or equity, or any other financing proceeds such as cash advances, royalties or earn-out payments; provided, however, that
this provision shall not apply to a transaction with a specific use of proceeds requirement that the proceeds generated in such transaction
are to be used exclusively to purchase the assets or equity of an unaffiliated business in an arm’s length transaction, or such
proceeds are to be used exclusively to develop the existing assets of the Borrower, and the proceeds are used accordingly.
3.5.2
Other Future Receipts. One hundred percent (100%) of the net proceeds to the Borrower or Subsidiary resulting from the sale of
any assets or securities, of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, including but not limited to, the sale of any Subsidiary, the receipt
in cash by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any tax refunds, the sale of any tax credits, collections by Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries pursuant to any settlement or judgement, but not including sales of inventory of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries in the
ordinary course of business.
3.6
Use of Proceeds. Borrower agrees to use the proceeds advanced by the Holder hereunder exclusively to pursue a registered offering
of the company’s common stock, acquisitions, and general working capital.
3.7
Ranking and Security. The obligations of the Borrower under this Note shall constitute a first priority security interest and
rank senior with respect to any and all Indebtedness existing prior to or incurred as of or following the initial Issue Date. The obligations
of the Borrower under this Note are secured pursuant to the Security and Pledge Agreement attached hereto. So long as the Borrower shall
have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not (directly or indirectly through any Subsidiary or affiliate) (i) pay down
any existing Indebtedness without the Holder’s prior written consent, or (ii) incur or suffer to exist or guarantee any Indebtedness
that is senior to or pari passu with (in priority of payment and performance) the Borrower’s obligations hereunder, provided,
however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, one or more Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes issued by the Borrower and dated
within ten (10) Business Days of the Issue Date, having an aggregate principal amount not to exceed Five Hundred Fifty-Five Thousand,
Five Hundred Fifty-Six Dollars ($555,556) in the aggregate (the “Permitted Pari Passu Notes”), shall constitute permitted
pari passu obligations hereunder and shall not be subject to the restrictions of this Section 3.7(ii). As used herein, the term “Indebtedness”
means (a) all indebtedness of the Borrower for borrowed money or for the deferred purchase price of property or services, including any
type of letters of credit, but not including deferred purchase price obligations in place as of the Issue Date or obligations to trade
creditors incurred in the ordinary course of business, (b) all obligations of the Borrower evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or other
similar instruments, (c) purchase money indebtedness hereafter incurred by the Borrower to finance the purchase of fixed or capital assets,
including all capital lease obligations of the Borrower which do not exceed the purchase price of the assets funded, (d) all guarantee

or otherwise, to be secured and/or unsecured by) any lien or encumbrance on property (including accounts and contract rights) owned by
the Borrower, whether or not the Borrower has assumed or become liable for the payment of such obligation. With respect to any Indebtedness
that is a senior secured obligation of the Borrower, Borrower agrees to cause the holders of such Indebtedness to execute subordination
agreements with respect to the Borrower’s obligations under this Note, and to deliver such subordination agreements to the Holder
on or prior to the Issue Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be permitted to pursue and close equipment financing,
with such financing secured by first priority lien(s) against the equipment being financed and second priority lien(s) (behind the Holder’s
security interest) against the Borrower’s other assets.

to any other rights the Holder may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Information Failure Event Date and on each monthly
anniversary of each such Information Failure Event Date (if the applicable event shall not have been cured by such date) until the information
failure is cured, Borrower shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to one

of Rule 144 are satisfied) or have been duly registered and permitted to be sold and transferred without restriction (so long as the

at law, in equity, or under any Transaction Document:
4.2.1
Acceleration. The entire unpaid balance of this Note and all other Obligations shall, at the option of the Holder, become
immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Borrower.

Default Premium. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, all amounts owing by the Borrower to the Holder under or
in connection with this Note or any other Transaction Document (collectively, the “Obligations”) shall be increased to an
amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Obligations outstanding at the time such amount is determined, it being agreed
that the Obligations include, without limitation, the outstanding Principal Amount, accrued and unpaid interest, Monitoring Fees (as
defined below), enforcement costs, legal fees, expenses, indemnities, and any other fees, charges or amounts payable hereunder or thereunder,
whether accruing before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the default premium
provided for herein constitutes liquidated damages and not a penalty, that the actual damages resulting from an Event of Default are
difficult or impossible to ascertain with precision, and that such default premium represents a reasonable estimate of the damages likely
to be incurred by the Holder as a result of such Event of Default.
4.2.3
Default Interest. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, all outstanding Obligations, whether or not accelerated,
shall accrue interest at the rate equal to the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum legal amount permitted by law
(the “Default Interest Rate”), until the same is paid in full, including following the entry of a judgment in favor of Holder.
4.2.4
Monitoring Fee. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall incur a monthly monitoring fee (“Monitoring Fee”)
in the amount of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) per month commencing on the date in which the Event of Default occurs and continuing
until the Event of Default is cured. The Monitoring Fee is intended to compensate the Holder for internal costs, administrative burdens,
and other non-legal expenses associated with monitoring the Borrower and managing the Holder’s rights and interests during the
pendency of such Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, the Monitoring Fee shall not be deemed to include, or in any way limit
or preclude, the Holder’s right to separately recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs pursuant to the terms of
this Note or applicable law.
4.2.5
Inspection Rights. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (after the expiration of any applicable cure period), Holder to
have right to inspect the books and records of the Borrower, at reasonable business hours, at Holder’s sole discretion.

4.4
Notice of Default. Borrower shall be required
to provide written Notice to the Holder immediately upon becoming aware of the occurrence of any event that is either reasonably likely
to have a Material Adverse Effect or that would reasonably be deemed an Event of Default (without regard to Borrower’s ability
to cure such Event of Default, if applicable), provided however, that Borrower’s failure to timely provide such notice shall
not prevent this Note being deemed in default.
ARTICLE
V. MISCELLANEOUS

Amendments. This Note and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and the
Holder. The term “Note” and all reference thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this instrument
as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented.
5.4
Assignability. This Note shall be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to be the benefit
of the Holder and its successors and assigns. This Note may be transferred or assigned by the Holder, in whole or in part, at any time
and from time to time, without the consent of the Borrower, by endorsement and delivery of this Note or by other means of assignment.

5.6
Governing Law & Agreement to Confidential Arbitration. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or any
other document executed in connection herewith, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Note, or the other
Transaction Documents, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the
scope or applicability of this Note to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration administered by Mediation and Civil Arbitration,
Inc. d/b/a RapidRuling (www.rapidruling.com) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules effective at the time a claim is made,
and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Arbitrators shall be
appointed by RapidRuling and any hearing shall be held via video or telephone conference. The parties agree that no objection shall be
taken to the decision, order or award of the tribunal following any such hearing on the basis that the hearing was held by video or telephone
conference. In the event of any legal action (including arbitration) to enforce or interpret this Note, the non-prevailing Party shall
pay (x) the attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses (including expert witness fees) of the prevailing Party in such amount
as may be determined, plus (y) reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the prevailing Party in enforcing, or on appeal from, a judgment
in favor of the prevailing Party. In any arbitration, the arbitrator shall include any such award in the arbitration award. EACH PARTY
HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process
being served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this Note or any other Transaction Documents either by (i) 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 Note or by (ii) electronic service at the email addresses provided in the section 5.2 (or such other address
as may be designated by notice in accordance with this Note), 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 law. No claimed breach of contract or violation of law by Holder or any of its affiliates shall operate to extinguish the
Borrower’s obligations under this Section.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the request by any Party for specific performance and temporary, preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, whether prohibitive
or mandatory, the appointment of a receiver, and the enforcement of security interests and other remedies with respect to the Collateral
under the Security and Pledge Agreement or other Transaction Documents, shall not be subject to arbitration and shall be adjudicated
only by the state and/or federal courts residing in Wilmington, Delaware, and each Party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction
of such courts for such purposes, and waives and agrees not to assert in any such proceeding a claim that he or it is not personally
subject to the courts referred to above, that the suit or action was brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the suit or
action is improper. The Borrower further acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to
the Holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the
remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Note may be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach
by the Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law
or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to seek equitable relief, including without limitation temporary restraining
orders, temporary and permanent injunctions, and specific performance, and such equitable relief may be sought without the necessity
of showing economic loss and without the necessity of posting a bond or other security.
The
Holder and the Borrower acknowledge and agree that the rights of Holder under this Note are of a specialized and unique character and
that immediate and irreparable damage will result to Holder if the Borrower fails or refuses to perform his or its obligations under
this Note or otherwise breaches this Note and, notwithstanding an election by Holder to seek a remedy at law, Holder may, in addition
to the remedies at law described above, seek equitable relief, including without limitation temporary restraining orders, temporary and
permanent injunctions, and specific performance, and such equitable relief may be sought without the necessity of posting a bond or other
security. No claimed breach of contract or violation of law by Holder or any of its affiliates shall operate to extinguish the Borrower’s
obligations under Section 5.6 hereof.
For
the avoidance of doubt, the notice and service provisions of this Section 5.6 shall control with respect to the commencement and conduct
of any arbitration or legal proceeding, notwithstanding Section 5.2 or any other notice provision in this Note or any Transaction Document.
5.7
Certain Amounts. Whenever pursuant to this Note the Borrower is required to pay an amount in excess of the outstanding principal
amount (or the portion thereof required to be paid at that time) plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Default Interest on such interest,
the Borrower and the Holder agree that the actual damages to the Holder from the receipt of cash payment on this Note may be difficult
to determine and the amount to be so paid by the Borrower represents stipulated damages and not a penalty.
5.8
Remedies. The Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder,
by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the remedy at
law for a breach of its obligations under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the
Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in
equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach
of this Note and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without
any bond or other security being required.
5.9
Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Borrower 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 action or proceeding that may be brought by the Holder in order to enforce any right
or remedy under this Note. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Note, it is expressly agreed and provided
that the total liability of the Borrower under this Note for payments which under Delaware law are 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 which under Delaware
law in the nature of interest that the Borrower may be obligated to pay under this Note exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if
the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by Delaware law and applicable to this Note 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 this Note 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 Borrower to the Holder with respect to indebtedness
evidenced by this Note, such excess shall be applied by the Holder to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded
to the Borrower, the manner of handling such excess to be at the Holder’s election.
5.10
No Broker-Dealer Acknowledgement. Absent a final adjudication from a court of competent jurisdiction stating otherwise, so long
as any obligation of Borrower under this Note or the other Transaction Documents is outstanding, the Borrower shall not state, claim,
allege, or in any way assert to any person, institution, or entity, that Holder is currently, or ever has been, a broker-dealer under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
5.11
Opportunity to Consult with Counsel. The Borrower represents and acknowledges that it has been provided with the opportunity to
discuss and review the terms of this Note and the other Transaction Documents with its counsel before signing it and that it is freely
and voluntarily signing the Transaction Documents in exchange for the benefits provided herein. In light of this, the Borrower will not
contest the validity of Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated therein. The Borrower further represents and acknowledges
that it has been provided a reasonable period of time within which to review the terms of the Transaction Documents.
5.12

Party or Debtor.
4.
Filings; Further Assurances.
(a)
General. The Secured Party is authorized to file a UCC-1 Financing Statement (or its equivalent) with the Secretary of State of
the State of Delaware and in any other jurisdictions where the Secured Party chooses to file, with respect to the Debtor. Debtor also
authorizes the filing by the Secured Party of such other UCC financing statements, continuation financing statements, fixture filings,
filing appropriate notices in international or federal registries including the United States Patent and Trademark Office, security agreements,
mortgages, deeds of trust, chattel mortgages, assignments, assignments of rents, motor vehicle lien acknowledgments and other documents
as the Secured Party may reasonably require in order to perfect, maintain, protect or enforce its security interest in the Collateral
or any portion thereof and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing,
if so requested by the Secured Party at any time hereafter, Debtor shall promptly execute and deliver to the Secured Party such fixture
filings, agreements, security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust, chattel mortgages, assignments, motor vehicle lien acknowledgments
and other documents as the Secured Party may reasonably require from such Debtor in order to perfect, maintain, protect or enforce its
rights under this Agreement. Debtor shall promptly deliver to the Secured Party any and all certificates and instruments constituting
the Pledged Equity in suitable form for transfer by delivery and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in
blank. Debtor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Secured Party as such Debtor’s true and lawful attorney with
power, upon Debtor’s failure or refusal to promptly comply with its obligations in this Section 4(a), to sign the name of Debtor
on any of the above-described documents or on any other similar documents which need to be executed, recorded or filed in order to perfect,
maintain, protect or enforce the Secured Party’s security interest in the Collateral. Debtor further agrees to enter into such
control agreements with the Secured Party and such third parties as may be necessary to obtain a first priority security interest in
the Collateral, including deposit accounts and Pledged Equity, and agrees to use best efforts to obtain the assent of the third parties
to said agreements.
(b)
Mortgage. Debtor hereby authorizes Secured Party to obtain a mortgage on any and all of its real estate. Debtor covenants and
agrees that it will execute any documents, provide any information and take such other action as is requested by Secured Party to effectuate
such mortgage.
(c)
Additional Matters. Without limiting the generality of Section 4(a), Debtor will at the reasonable written request of the Secured
Party, appear in and defend any action or proceeding which is reasonably expected to have a material and adverse effect with respect
to such Debtor’s title to, or the security interest of the Secured Party in, the Collateral.
5.
Representations, Warranties and Agreements. Debtor represents, warrants and agrees as follows:
(a)
No Other Encumbrances. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule to the Securities Purchase Agreement, Debtor has good and
marketable title to its Collateral, free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and rights of any kind, except the Liens scheduled
pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement or as otherwise approved in writing by the Secured Party, and has the right to pledge,
sell, assign or transfer the Collateral.
(b)
Authorization of Pledged Equity. All Pledged Equity is duly authorized and validly issued, is fully paid and, to the extent applicable,
nonassessable and is not subject to the preemptive rights of any person.
(c)
Security Interest/Priority. This Agreement creates a valid security interest in favor of the Secured party in the Collateral of
Debtor and, when properly perfected by filing shall constitute a valid and perfected first priority security interest in such Collateral
(including all uncertificated Pledged Equity consisting of partnership or limited liability company interests that do not constitute
securities), to the extent such security interest can be perfected by filing under the UCC, free and clear of all liens except for liens
permitted by the Securities Purchase Agreement. The taking possession by the Secured Party of the certificated securities (if any) evidencing
the Pledged Equity and all other Instruments constituting Collateral will perfect and establish the first priority of the Secured Party’s
security interest in all the Pledged Equity evidenced by such certificated securities and such instruments. With respect to any Collateral
consisting of a deposit account, investment property, securities entitlement or held in a securities account, upon execution and delivery
by the Debtor, the applicable depository bank or securities intermediary and the Secured Party of an agreement granting control to the
Secured Party over such Collateral, the Secured Party shall have a valid and perfected first priority security interest in such Collateral.
(d)
Consents; Etc. There are no restrictions in any organizational document governing any Pledged Equity or any other document related
thereto which would limit or restrict (i) the grant of a security interest pursuant to this Agreement in such Pledged Equity, (ii) the
perfection of such security interest or (iii) the exercise of remedies in respect of such perfected security interest in the Pledged
Equity as contemplated by this Agreement. Except for (i) the filing or recording of UCC financing statements, (ii) the filing of appropriate
notices with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office; with other applicable international registries,
federal registries; and with local registries regarding assignments of rents and fixture filings, (iii) obtaining control to perfect
the security interests created by this Agreement (to the extent required under Section 4 hereof), (iv) such actions as may be required
by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities, and (v) consents, authorizations, filings or other actions which have been obtained
or made, no consent or authorization of, filing with, or other act by or in respect of, any arbitrator or governmental authority and
no consent of any other person (including, without limitation, any stockholder, member or creditor of Debtor), is required for (A) the
grant by Debtor of the security interest in the Collateral granted hereby or for the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement
by Debtor, (B) the perfection of such security interest (to the extent such security interest can be perfected by filing under the UCC,
the granting of control (to the extent required, or as provided in Section 4(a) hereof) or by filing an appropriate notice with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or other applicable registry) or (C) the exercise by the Secured
party of the rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement.
(e)
Location of Place(s) of Business. All places of business of Debtor, including the identification of the principal place of business
of Debtor, and the address(es) at which the Collateral is (are) located, are indicated on Schedule 5(e) hereto. Debtor shall not, without
at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Secured Party, relocate such principal place of business or the Collateral, with
no relocation being permitted outside the United States in any event.
(f)
Right to Inspect the Collateral. The Secured Party shall have the right, during usual business hours of the Debtor and upon reasonable
advance notice, to inspect and examine the Collateral. Debtor agrees that any reasonable expenses incurred by the Secured Party in connection
with this Section 5(f) during the continuance of an Event of Default shall constitute Secured Party Expenses.
(g)
Negative Covenants. Except for sale of inventory in the ordinary course of business, Debtor shall not (i) sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of, relocate or transfer, any of the Collateral, except dispositions of Collateral that is worn out, obsolete or no longer necessary
in the business of Debtor, (ii) allow any liens on or grant security interests in the Collateral except the Permitted Liens or (iii)
change the Debtor’s name or add any new fictitious name without the written consent of the Secured Party.
(h)
Further Information. Debtor shall promptly supply the Secured Party with such information concerning Debtor and Debtor’s
business as the Secured Party may reasonably request from time-to-time hereafter, and shall within five (5) business days of obtaining
knowledge thereof, notify the Secured Party of any event which constitutes an Event of Default.
(i)
Solvency. Debtor is now and shall be at all times hereafter able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.
(j)
Secured Party Expenses. Debtor shall, within fifteen (15) business days of written demand from the Secured Party accompanied by
adequate documentation of such expenses, reimburse the Secured Party for all sums expended by it which constitute Secured Party Expenses
and, in the event that Debtor does not pay any Secured Party Expenses payable to a third party within fifteen (15) business days after
notice thereof, then the Secured Party may immediately and without further notice pay such Secured Party Expenses on Debtor’s behalf.
All such expenses shall become a part of the Obligations and, at the Secured Party’s option, will (i) be payable on demand or (ii)
be added to the balance of the Note and be payable proportionately with any installment payments that become due during the remaining
term of the Note or, (iii) at Secured Party’s option, may be treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the
maturity of the Note. This Agreement shall also secure payment of those amounts.
(k)
Commercial Tort Claims. Debtor has no pending commercial tort claim (as a plaintiff) against any individual or entity (a “Commercial
Claim”). Debtor shall promptly deliver to the Secured Party notice of any Commercial Claim that a Debtor may bring against any
individual or entity, together with such information with respect thereto as the Secured Party may reasonably request. Within ten (10)
days after a written request by the Secured Party, Debtor shall grant the Secured Party a security interest in any pending Commercial
Claim to the extent such security interest is permitted by applicable law.
(l)
Reliance by the Secured Party; Representations Cumulative. Each representation, warranty and agreement contained in this
Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been relied on by the Secured Party regardless of any investigation made or information
possessed by the Secured Party. The representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein shall be cumulative and in addition to
any and all other representations, warranties and agreements set forth in the Transaction Documents or any other documents created after
the Closing Date and signed by Debtor.
6.
Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” by Debtor
under this Agreement: (a) the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Note or any other Transaction Document, after the expiration
of any applicable grace or cure period; (b) any breach by Debtor of any covenant, agreement, or obligation contained in this Agreement
that continues unremedied for ten (10) days after such breach occurs (or, if earlier, five (5) days after written notice from Secured
Party); (c) any representation or warranty made by Debtor in this Agreement proves to have been false or misleading in any material respect
when made; or (d) the security interest granted hereunder shall at any time fail to constitute a valid and perfected first priority security
interest in any material portion of the Collateral, except as permitted by the terms hereof.
7.
Rights and Remedies.
(a)
Rights and Remedies of the Secured Party.
(i)
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice of election and without demand, the Secured Party
may cause any one or more of the following to occur, all of which are authorized by Debtor:
(A)
The Secured Party may make such payments and do such acts as it reasonably considers necessary to protect its security interest in the
Collateral. Debtor agrees to promptly assemble and make available the Collateral if the Secured Party so requires. Debtor authorizes
the Secured Party to enter the premises where any of the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any
part thereof, and pay, purchase, contest or compromise any encumbrance, claim, right or lien which, in the reasonable opinion of the
Secured Party, appears to be prior or superior to its security interest in violation of this Agreement, and to pay all reasonable expenses
incurred in connection therewith.
(B)
The Secured Party shall be automatically deemed to be granted a license or other appropriate right to use, without charge or representation
or warranty, Debtor’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks and advertising
matter, and any other property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale
and selling any Collateral.
(C)
The Secured Party may ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale and sell (in the
manner provided for herein) the Collateral.
(D)
The Secured Party may sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both (which in the case of a private sale of Pledged
Equity, shall be to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for
their own accounts, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof), by way of one or more contracts or transactions,
for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Debtor’s premises) as is commercially reasonable (it not being
necessary that the Collateral be present at any such sale) for the purposes of satisfying the Obligations. In the case of a sale of Pledged
Equity, the Secured Party shall have no obligation to delay sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the
issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933. Debtor further acknowledges and
agrees that any offer to sell any Pledged Equity which has been (i) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other
publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such offer may be advertised
without prior registration under the Securities Act of 1933), or (ii) made privately in the manner described above shall be deemed to
involve a “public sale” under the UCC, notwithstanding that such sale may not constitute a “public offering”
under the Securities Act of 1933, and the Secured Party may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such securities.
(E)
The Secured Party shall be entitled to give notice of the disposition of the Collateral as follows: (1) the Secured Party shall give
Debtor a notice in writing of the time and place of public sale, or, if the sale is a private sale or some other disposition other than
a public sale is to be made of the Collateral, the time on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be made, (2) the
notice shall be personally delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to Debtor at least ten (10) days before the date fixed for the sale,
or at least ten (10) days before the date on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be made, unless the Collateral
is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value, in which case the Secured Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
provide such notice to Debtor as far in advance of such disposition as is practicable.
(F)
The Secured Party may purchase all or any portion of the Collateral at any public sale by credit bid or other appropriate payment therefor.
(G)
The Secured Party shall have the following rights and remedies regarding the appointment of a receiver: (1) the Secured Party may have
a receiver appointed as a matter of right, (2) the receiver may be an employee of the Secured Party and may serve without bond, and (3)
all fees of the receiver and his or her attorney shall be Secured Party Expenses and become part of the Obligations and shall be payable
on demand, with interest at the Rate specified in the Note from the date of expenditure until repaid. The Debtor acknowledges and agrees
that the Secured Party shall have the rights with respect to the appointment of a receiver as described herein, even if such right is
not statutorily provided under applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Note or in any other Transaction
Documents, Debtor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Party shall have the right with respect to the appointment of a receiver as
described herein, in any jurisdiction at the sole discretion of the Secured Party.
(H)
The Secured Party, either itself or through a receiver, may collect the payments, rents, income, dividends, distributions and revenues
(together, “Revenue”) from the Collateral. The Secured Party may at any time, in its reasonable discretion, transfer any
Collateral into its own name or that of its nominee(s) and receive the Revenue therefrom and hold the same as security for the Obligations
or apply it to payment of the Obligations in such order of preference as the Secured Party may determine. Insofar as the Collateral consists
of accounts, general intangibles, loans receivable, insurance policies, instruments, chattel paper, choses in action, or similar property,
the Secured Party may demand, collect, issue receipts for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose, or otherwise realize on the
Collateral as the Secured Party may determine (in its reasonable discretion), whether or not the Obligations are then due. For these
purposes, the Secured Party may, on behalf of and in the name of Debtor, (1) receive, open, and dispose of mail addressed to Debtor;
(2) change any address to which mail and payments are to be sent; and (3) endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders, documents of title,
instruments and items pertaining to the payment, shipment, or storage of any Collateral. To facilitate collection, the Secured Party
may notify account debtors and Debtor on any Collateral to make payments directly to the Secured Party.
(ii)
The Secured Party may deduct from the proceeds of any sale of the Collateral all Secured Party Expenses incurred in connection with the
enforcement and exercise of any of the rights and remedies of the Secured Party provided for herein, irrespective of whether suit is
commenced. If such deduction does not occur (in the Secured Party’s reasonable discretion), upon demand, Debtor shall pay all of
such Secured Party Expenses. Any deficiency which exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided herein will be paid immediately
by Debtor, and any excess that exists will be returned, without interest and subject to the rights of third parties, to Debtor by the
Secured Party; provided, however, that if any excess exists at a time when any of the Obligations remain outstanding, such
excess shall instead remain as part of the Collateral and continue to be subject to the security interest in Section 3(a) above until
such time as all of the Obligations have been fully satisfied or otherwise terminated.
(iii)
Voting and payment Rights in Respect of the Pledged Equity.
(A)
So long as no Event of Default shall exist, Debtor may (1) exercise any and all voting and other rights pertaining to the Pledged Equity
of such Debtor or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the Securities Purchase Agreement
and (2) receive and retain any and all dividends (other than stock dividends and other dividends constituting Collateral which are addressed
hereinabove), principal or interest paid in respect of the Pledged Equity to the extent they are allowed under the Securities Purchase
Agreement; and
(B)
During the continuance of an Event of Default, (1) all rights of an Debtor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it
would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to clause (A)(1) above shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested
in the Secured Party which shall then have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights, (2) all rights of an Debtor
to receive the dividends, principal and interest payments which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to clause
(A)(2) above shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon be vested in the Secured Party which shall then have the sole right to receive
and hold as Collateral such dividends, principal and interest payments, and (3) all dividends, principal and interest payments which
are received by a Debtor contrary to the provisions of clause (B)(2) above shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Secured
Party, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Debtor, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Secured Party as Collateral
in the exact form received, to be held by the Secured Party as Collateral and as further collateral security for the Secured Obligations.
(b)
Rights and Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Secured Party under this Agreement and any other agreements and
documents delivered or executed in connection with the Obligations shall be cumulative. The Secured Party shall also have all other rights
and remedies not inconsistent herewith as are provided under applicable law, or in equity. No exercise by the Secured Party of any one
right or remedy shall be deemed an election.
8.
Additional Waivers. The Secured Party shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for (i) the safekeeping of
the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in
the value thereof or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency or other person whomsoever, except
to the extent that such loss, damage, liability, cost or expense has resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Secured Party or its affiliates. If the Secured Party at any time has possession of any Collateral, whether before or after an Event
of Default, the Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral if
the Secured Party takes such action for that purpose as Debtor shall request or as the Secured Party, in its reasonable discretion, shall
deem appropriate under the circumstances, but failure to honor any request by Debtor shall not of itself be deemed to be a failure to
exercise reasonable care. The Secured Party shall not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in the Collateral
against prior parties, nor to protect, preserve, or maintain any security interest given to secure the Obligations.
9.
Notices. All notices or demands by any party relating to this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents shall be as
provided in Section 5.2 of the Note.
10.
Choice of Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Dispute Resolution. The validity of this Agreement, its construction, interpretation
and enforcement, and the rights of the parties hereunder and concerning the Collateral, shall be determined under, governed by, and construed
in accordance with the laws of the state of Delaware as applied to contracts made and to be fully performed in such state, without regard
to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof, except to the extent that the validity, perfection or enforcement of a security interest
hereunder in respect of any Collateral is governed by the laws of some other jurisdiction, in which case such laws shall govern. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties expressly acknowledge and agree that Section 5.6 of the Note governs exclusively

CERTAIN
DISCLOSURES
Loan
Pricing Disclosure
Lender
uses a system of risk-based pricing to determine interest charges and fees. Risk-based pricing is a system that evaluates the risk
factors of your application and adjusts the interest rate up or down based on this risk evaluation. This Loan may be a higher-cost
loan than loans that may be available through other lenders. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans to other Persons on
other terms, at other amounts and interest rates, and with other fees in its sole discretion, subject only to applicable law.
Loan
For Specific Purposes Only
The
proceeds of the requested Loan may solely be used for commercial purposes, as set forth and
certified and affirmed by Borrower in the Commercial Purpose Affidavit and Waiver of Federal
and State Truth-in-Lending Disclosures attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Commercial
Purpose Affidavit”). IN ADDITION, THE LOAN WILL NOT BE USED FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY
OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES. Borrower understands that Borrower’s agreement not to use the
Loan proceeds for personal, family or household purposes means that certain important duties
imposed upon entities making loans for personal, family or household purposes, and certain
important rights conferred upon Persons obtaining such loans, pursuant to federal or state
law will not apply to the Loan or the Agreement.
1To
be paid automatically if any electronic payment processed on Borrower’s Loan is returned unpaid or dishonored for any reason,
including insufficient funds or stop payment on account.

to the agreed Payment Schedule and that no payments are missed. These calculations are provided as a convenience only, and Lender’s
records will, absent manifest error, be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between
Borrower and Lender. To the extent Lender’s records differ from the below metric calculations and metric explanations, Lender’s
records shall control. The amounts below may vary from the actual amounts.

The Disbursement Amount is the amount of capital that Borrower receives and may be different
from the Loan Amount. The Disbursement Amount is net of Fees and other expenses withheld
from the Loan Amount. A portion of the Disbursement Amount may be used to pay Fees and other
expenses owed to Lender, any amounts owed to Lender from any prior Disbursement, indebtedness,
or loan, and any amounts used to pay off obligations owed by Borrower to a third-party creditor
APR should be considered in conjunction with the Total Cost of Capital. APR may be most useful
when comparing financing solutions of similar expected duration. APR is calculated here according
to the principles of 12 C.F.R. § 1026 (“Regulation Z”), using 52 payment
periods of equal length and 52 payment dates per year for weekly pay products, and 252 payment
dates per year for daily pay products. Neither the inclusion of APR nor reference to Regulation
Z herein subjects this Agreement or the Loan thereto, but such reference is provided as a
courtesy only.

1. EFFECTIVE
DATE. This Agreement begins on the date that corresponds with Lender’s signature
on the signature page of the Agreement (the “Effective Date”). Borrower
understands and agrees that Lender may postpone, without penalty, the disbursement of amounts
to Borrower until all required security interests have attached and been validly perfected
and Lender has received all required personal guarantees or other documentation reasonably
required by Lender.
2. AUTHORIZATION.
Borrower agrees that the Loan made by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to
have been authorized by Borrower and to have been made pursuant to a duly authorized request
on its behalf.
3. LOAN
FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES ONLY. The proceeds of the requested Loan may solely be used
for specific commercial purposes, and not for any other purposes. In addition, as set
forth and certified and affirmed by Borrower in the Commercial Purpose Affidavit, the Loan
will not be used for personal, family or household purposes, and Borrower and Guarantor are
forever estopped from taking the position that such Loan (including Advances/Disbursements)
are or were used for such personal, family or household purposes. Borrower understands that
Borrower’s agreement not to use the Loan proceeds for personal, family or household
purposes means that certain important duties imposed upon entities making loans for personal,
family or household purposes, and certain important rights conferred upon Persons obtaining
such loans, pursuant to federal or state law will not apply to the Loan or the Agreement.
Borrower also understands that Lender will be unable to confirm whether Borrower’s
use or intended use of the Loan has or will have a commercial or business purpose. Borrower
agrees that a breach by Borrower of the provisions of this section will not affect Lender’s
right to (i) enforce Borrower’s promise to pay to Lender all amounts owed thereto under
this Agreement, regardless of the purpose for which the Loan is in fact obtained or (ii)
exercise any right, remedy, privilege, or power set forth in this Agreement or otherwise
available to Lender at law or in equity, even if such right, remedy, privilege, or power
would not have been available had the Loan been obtained for personal, family or household
purposes.
4. DISBURSEMENT
OF LOAN PROCEEDS AND MAINTENANCE OF BORROWER’S BANK ACCOUNT. Borrower’s Loan
will be disbursed as provided in the Authorization Agreement for Direct Deposit (ACH Credit)
and Direct Payments (ACH Debits) attached as Exhibit B attached to this Agreement (the “ACH
Authorization Form”). Borrower agrees to maintain Direct Payments (ACH Debits) in the
account that was reviewed in conjunction with the underwriting and approval of this Loan
(including keeping such account open until the Total Repayment Amount has been indefeasibly
repaid in full).
5. PROMISE
TO PAY. Borrower agrees to pay Lender the Total Repayment Amount in lawful money of the
United States of America in payment, in accordance with the Payment Schedule shown in the
table entitled “Your Loan Details” in this Agreement. Borrower authorizes Lender
to collect required payments in the manner provided in the ACH Authorization Form.
6. ALTERNATIVE
PAYMENT METHODS. If Borrower knows that for any reason Lender will be unable to process
a payment under the Automatic Payment Plan, or if Lender is unable to process a payment under
the Automatic Payment Plan, then Borrower must either restore sufficient funds such that
the missed payment can be collected as provided in the ACH Authorization Form or other recoupment
method as directed by Lender. If Borrower elects to send payments to Lender by postal mail,
then Borrower agrees to send such payments via certified mail, return receipt requested,
to PMB 1216, 2795 E. Cottonwood Parkway, Suite 300, Salt Lake City, UT 84121. All alternative
payments must be made by check, money order, wire transfer, automatic transfer from an account
at an institution offering such service, or other instrument in lawful money of the United
States of America constituting legal tender in payment of all debts and dues, public and
private. If Borrower makes a payment on Borrower’s Loan by any means other than the
Automatic Payment Plan that Lender makes available, Lender may treat such payment as an additional
payment and continue to process Borrower’s scheduled payments made through the Automatic
Payment Plan or may reduce any scheduled payment to be made through the Automatic Payment
Plan by the amount of any such payment received through alternative means. Failure by Lender
to process a payment under the Automatic Payment Plan does not relieve Borrower from making
any such payment, and each payment shall still be due and payable in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, including any additional interest, cost or fees due because of such
missed or late payment.
7. APPLICATION
OF PAYMENTS. Subject to applicable law, Lender reserves the right to allocate and apply
payments received on Borrower’s Loan between principal, interest and fees in any manner
Lender chooses in Lender’s sole discretion, it being understood and agreed that any
fees and interest may be paid during the earlier portion of the term of the Loan. Lender’s
books and records of payments shall be conclusive proof of the same absent manifest error.
Owner / Guarantor Initial: _________ _________

8. POSTDATED
CHECKS, RESTRICTED ENDORSEMENT CHECKS AND OTHER DISPUTED OR QUALIFIED PAYMENTS. Lender
can accept late, postdated or partial payments without losing any of Lender’s rights
under this Agreement, it being understood by Borrower that a postdated check is a check dated
later than the day it was presented for payment. Lender is under no obligation to hold a
postdated check, and Lender reserves the right to process every item presented as if dated
the same date that such item was received by Lender or Lender’s check processor. Borrower
may not hold Lender liable for depositing any postdated check. Borrower agrees not to send
Lender partial payments marked “paid in full”, “without recourse”,
or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing
any of Lender’s rights under this Agreement, including (without limitation) Lender’s
right to full repayment of the Total Repayment Amount. All notices and written communications
concerning postdated checks, restricted endorsement checks (including any check or other
payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes “payment in full”
of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction
of a disputed amount) or any other disputed, nonconforming or qualified payments, must be
mailed or delivered to PMB 1216, 2795 E. Cottonwood Parkway, Suite 300, Salt Lake City, UT
84121.
9. PREPAYMENT.
Borrower may prepay Borrower’s Loan in whole on any Business Day prior to the Maturity
Date by paying Lender the sum total of the Total Repayment Amount, any Returned Payment Fees,
any Late Fees, and all other due and unpaid Fees, in each case as described in the table
entitled “Interest Forgiveness and Other Fees” in this Agreement or otherwise
due under this Agreement, less (i) the amount of any Loan payments made prior to such prepayment
and (ii) the aggregate amount of unpaid interest remaining on Borrower’s Loan as of
such date as determined by Lender’s records in accordance with Section 7.
10. SECURITY
INTEREST. Borrower and Guarantor hereby grant to Lender a security interest in and to
any and all Collateral (as hereinafter defined) to secure the prompt and indefeasible payment
and performance in full when due of all debts, liabilities and obligations of Borrower and
Guarantor to Lender hereunder, including (without limitation) the Loan and all amounts, fees,

absolute or contingent, primary or secondary, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter
arising, including, without limitation, all indebtedness, interest, leases, debts and liabilities
arising under or in connection with any note, guaranty (including the Guaranty, as hereinafter
defined), surety agreement, or any other document, agreement, or instrument creating indebtedness,
obligations, or liabilities owed by Borrower or Guarantor to Lender or any affiliate of Lender
(including principal, interest, late charges, collection costs, attorney fees and the like)
(collectively, the “Obligations”). The “Collateral” means all of Borrower’s,
and all of each Secured Guarantor’s assets and personal property, whether now owned by or
owing to, or hereafter acquired by or arising in favor of Borrower and each Secured Guarantor,
and whether owned or consigned by or to, or leased from or to Borrower and each Secured Guarantor,
regardless of where located, which shall include, without limitation: (a) any and all amounts
owing to Borrower now or in the future from any merchant processor(s) processing charges
made by customers of Borrower via credit card or debit card transactions; (b) cash and cash
equivalents, (c) inventory, (d) equipment, (e) investment property, including certificated
and uncertificated securities, securities accounts, security entitlements, commodity contracts

rights, (j) accounts, including health-care insurance receivables, (k) deposit accounts with
any bank or other financial institution, (l) commercial tort claims, (m) general intangibles,
including payment intangibles and software, (n) copyrights, patents and trademarks and all
other intellectual property, (o) fixtures, (p) goods, (q) letters of credit, letter-of-credit
rights, and supporting obligations, and (r) and any other collateral specified in Schedule
C. The preceding terms used in defining the term “Collateral” not otherwise defined
in this Agreement shall have the meaning as such terms may from time to time be defined in
the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of Utah (“UCC”). The security
interest Borrower and each Secured Guarantor grants herein includes all accessions to, substitutions
for and replacements, proceeds (including stock rights), insurance proceeds and products
of the foregoing subsections (a) through (r), together with all books and records, customers
lists, credit files, computer files, programs, printouts, and other computer materials and
records related thereto and any general intangibles (as defined in the UCC) at any time evidencing
or relating to any of the foregoing. Lender disclaims any security interest in household
goods in which Lender is forbidden by applicable law from taking a security interest.

11. PROTECTING

may, or upon Lender’s request, file any financing statement, lien entry form, springing
DACA (which may be attached hereto as an Exhibit) or other document, agreement, or instrument
Lender or Lender’s Representative requires in order to perfect, maintain the perfection
of, amend, or continue Lender’s security interest in the Collateral, and Borrower and
Guarantor agree to cooperate with Lender and Lender’s Representative as may be necessary
to accomplish said filing and to do whatever Lender and Lender’s Representative deem
necessary to protect Lender’s security interest in the Collateral. Borrower and Guarantor,
at its sole expense, shall protect and defend Lender’s first-priority security interest
in the Collateral against all claims and demands whatsoever except for Permitted Liens (as
hereinafter defined). Borrower and Guarantor each agree that, if Guarantor is a corporate
entity, then Lender or Lender’s Representative may file any financing statement, lien
entry form or other document against Guarantor or its property that Lender and/or Lender’s
Representative requires in order to perfect, amend or continue Lender’s security interest
in the Collateral. Guarantor agrees to cooperate with Lender and Lender’s Representative
as may be necessary to accomplish said filing and to do whatever Lender or Lender’s
Representative deems necessary to protect Lender’s security interest in the Collateral.
“Lender’s Representative” means any Person that is or Persons that are
designated by Lender to act on its behalf in any authorized capacity. BORROWER AND EACH GUARANTOR
EACH EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT THAT, LENDER’S COLLATERAL
AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 10 INCLUDES ALL OF BORROWER’S AND EACH SECURED GUARANTOR’S PERSONAL
PROPERTY AND ASSETS. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
(as defined below), Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender, or designated
agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full
irrevocable power and authority in place and stead of Borrower, for the purpose of carrying
out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any
and all documents and instruments that may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this
Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives said attorney
the power and right, on behalf of Borrower without notice to or assent by Borrower, to, upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (a) endorse Borrower’s
name on any checks, notes, drafts or other forms of payment or security that may come into
the possession of Lender or any affiliate of Lender, to sign Borrower’s name on invoices
or bills-of-lading, drafts against customers, notices of assignment, verifications and schedules,
(b) sell, transfer, pledge, make any arrangement with respect to or otherwise dispose of
or deal with any of the Collateral consistent with the UCC and (c) do acts and things which
Lender reasonably deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and

interest, are irrevocable until the date this Agreement and the Obligations evidenced hereby

are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon
it to exercise any such powers. Neither Lender nor any other attorney-in-fact shall be liable
for any act or omission, error in judgment or mistake of law.
12. LOCATION

in writing, Borrower and Guarantor represent, warrant, and covenant, as appliable, that (i)
all Collateral (or records of the Collateral in the case of accounts, chattel paper, and
general intangibles) shall at all times be located at Borrower’s and Guarantor’s
respective address as shown on the first page of this Agreement or, if not shown thereon,
then as set forth elsewhere in this Agreement; (ii) except for inventory sold or accounts
collected in the ordinary course of Borrower’s or Guarantor’s business, Borrower
and Guarantor shall not sell, offer to sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Collateral
or any portion thereof; (iii) no one else has any interest in or claim to or against the

business and personal credit bureau reports in Borrower’s and Guarantor’s name,

Guarantor acknowledges that any credit reporting on the Loan shall be at the sole discretion

in connection with the defense, settlement or satisfaction of any action, claim or demand
asserted against Lender in connection therewith, which amounts shall be considered advances

misconduct of Lender, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. In this Section

27. RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. Subject to applicable law, if an Event of Default occurs under
this Agreement, at any time thereafter, Lender may exercise any one or more of the following
rights and remedies:
A. Refrain
from Disbursing Loan Proceeds: Lender may refrain from disbursing Borrower’s
Loan proceeds to Borrower’s Designated Checking Account.
B. Debit
Amounts Due From Borrower’s Designated Checking Account: Lender may debit through
the Automatic Payment Plan from Borrower’s Designated Checking Account all payments that
Lender was unable to collect and/or the amount of any other Obligations that Borrower failed
to pay.
C. Accelerate
Indebtedness: Lender may declare the entire Obligations immediately due and payable,
without notice to or consent from Borrower of any kind.
D. Assemble
Collateral: Lender may require Borrower and/or Guarantor to deliver to Lender all
or any portion of the Collateral and any and all certificates of title and other documents
relating to the Collateral. Lender may require Borrower and/or Guarantor to assemble the
Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place to be designated by Lender. Lender
also shall have full power to enter upon the property of Borrower and/or Guarantor to take
possession of and remove the Collateral, all in accordance with applicable law, including
(without limitation) the UCC. If the Collateral contains other goods not covered by this
Agreement at the time of repossession, Borrower and Guarantor agree Lender may take such
other goods, provided that Lender makes reasonable efforts to return them to Borrower and
Guarantor after repossession.
E. Sell
the Collateral: Lender shall have full power to sell, lease, transfer, or otherwise
deal with the Collateral or proceeds thereof in Lender’s own name or that of Borrower
or Guarantor. Lender may sell the Collateral at public auction or private sale. Unless the
Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized
market, Lender will give Borrower, Guarantor and other Persons as required by law, reasonable
notice of the time and place of any public sale, or the time after which any private sale
or any other disposition of the Collateral is to be made. Lender, Borrower, and Guarantor
agree that ten (10) calendar days’ prior notice is reasonable notice. However, no notice
need be provided to any Person who, after an Event of Default occurs, enters into and authenticates
an agreement waiving that Person’s right to notification of sale. All expenses relating
to the disposition of the Collateral, including without limitation the expenses of retaking,
holding, insuring, preparing for sale and selling the Collateral, shall become a part of
the Obligations secured by this Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all
such expenses will become a part of the Obligations.
F. Appoint
Receiver: Lender shall have the right to have a receiver appointed to take possession
of all or any part of the Collateral, with the power to protect and preserve the Collateral,
to operate the Collateral preceding foreclosure or sale, and to collect the rents from the
Collateral and apply the proceeds, over and above the cost of the receivership, against the
Obligations. The receiver may serve without bond if permitted by law. Lender’s right
to the appointment of a receiver shall exist whether or not the apparent value of the Collateral
exceeds the Obligations by a substantial amount. Employment by Lender shall not disqualify
a Person from serving as a receiver.
G. Collect
Revenues, Apply Accounts: Lender, either itself or through a receiver, may collect
the payments, rents, income, and revenues from the Collateral. Lender may at any time in
Lender’s discretion transfer any Collateral into Lender’s own name or that of
Lender’s nominee and receive the payments, rents, income and revenues therefrom and
hold the same as security for the Obligations or apply it to payment of the Obligations in
such order of preference as Lender may determine. Insofar as the Collateral consists of accounts,
general intangibles, insurance policies, instruments, chattel paper, choses in action, or
similar property, Lender may demand, collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue
for, foreclose or realize on the Collateral as Lender may determine, whether or not any amount
included within the Obligations is then due, as permitted by law. For these purposes, Lender
may, on behalf of and in the name of Borrower and Guarantor, receive, open and dispose of
mail addressed to Borrower or Guarantor; change any address to which mail and payments are
to be sent; and endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders, documents of title, instruments
and items pertaining to payment, shipment or storage of any Collateral. To facilitate collections,
Lender may notify account debtors and obligors on any Collateral to make payments directly
to Lender.
H. Obtain
Deficiency: If Lender chooses to sell any or all of the Collateral, Lender may obtain
a judgment against Borrower and/or Guarantor for any deficiency remaining on the Obligations
due to Lender after application of all amounts received from the exercise of the rights provided
in this Agreement. Borrower and Guarantor shall be liable for a deficiency even if the transaction
described in this subsection is a sale of accounts or chattel paper.

I. Confession
of Judgment: Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, Lender
may fill out and file a confession of judgment against Borrower substantially in form and
substance attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Confession of Judgment Form”). Borrower
hereby agrees, and shall not make any claim to the contrary, that this remedy is permitted
pursuant to applicable laws of the State of Utah.
J. Other
Rights and Remedies: Lender shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor
under the provisions of the UCC. In addition, Lender shall have and may exercise any or all
other rights and remedies it may have available at law, in equity or otherwise.
K. Election
of Remedies: Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender’s
rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently.
Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and
an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of Borrower under
the Agreement, after Borrower’s failure to perform, shall not affect Lender’s
right to declare a default and exercise its remedies.
28. CONSENT
TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE. Borrower, Guarantor and Lender agree that any action or proceeding
to enforce or arising out of this Agreement may be brought in the Third Judicial District
Court, State of Utah or in the federal United States District Court for the District of Utah,
and Borrower and Guarantor waive personal service of process. Borrower, Guarantor and Lender
agree that venue is proper in such courts.
29. JURY
TRIAL WAIVER. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Borrower, Guarantor, and
Lender waive their right to a trial by jury of any claim or cause of action based upon, arising
out of or related to this Agreement.
30. NO
WAIVER BY LENDER. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any rights,
remedies, privileges, or powers under this Agreement, shall be, or be construed or operate
as, a waiver of same. Waiver of any right, remedy, privilege, or power on any one occasion
shall not be construed as a waiver of the same. All Lender’s rights and remedies shall
be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently.
31. ASSIGNMENT.
This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns
of each of the parties hereto; provided, however, neither Borrower nor Guarantor may assign
this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without Lender’s prior written consent
and any assignment attempted to be made without such consent shall be absolutely null and
void. Lender may assign this Agreement and its rights and duties hereunder and no consent
or approval by Borrower or Guarantor is required in connection with any such assignment.
Lender reserves the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations in
all or any part of, or any interest in, Lender’s rights and benefits hereunder. In
connection with any assignment or participation, Lender may disclose all documents and information
that Lender now or hereafter may have relating to Borrower or Guarantor. To the extent that
Lender assigns its rights and obligations hereunder to another party, Lender thereupon shall
be released from such assigned obligations and such assignment shall affect a novation between
Borrower and Guarantor and such other party. Lender, in its capacity as servicer, or a successor
servicer (if any), shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower,
maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each assignment agreement delivered
to it with respect to this Loan and a register for the recordation of the name of each assignee
of this Loan, and principal and interest amount of this Loan owing to, such assignee pursuant
to the terms hereof. The entries in such register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Guarantor,
Lender and each such assignee may treat each Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant
to the terms hereof as a “Lender” hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The register maintained for this Loan shall be available
for inspection by Borrower and any such assignee of this Loan, at any reasonable time upon
reasonable prior notice to Lender, in its capacity as servicer, or the applicable successor
servicer (if any). This Section 31 shall be construed so that this Loan is at all times maintained
in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2)
of the Internal Revenue Code and any related Treasury regulations (or any other relevant
or successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or of such Treasury regulations).
32. INTERPRETATION.
Paragraph and section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only, and shall
not affect the construction of this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty
or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against Lender or Borrower, whether under
any rule of construction or otherwise. This Agreement has been reviewed by all parties, having
had the opportunity to consult legal counsel and, shall be construed and interpreted according
to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and intentions
of all parties hereto.
33. SEVERABILITY.
If one or more provisions of this Agreement or the application thereof is determined invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect in any jurisdiction, the same shall not invalidate
or render illegal or unenforceable such provision or its application in any other jurisdiction
nor any other provision of this Agreement or its application in any jurisdiction. If at any
time usury laws would render any amounts due under this Agreement usurious under applicable
law, then it is the Parties express intention that the Borrower and Guarantor not be required
to pay any interest at a rate in excess of the maximum lawful rate, that the excess be deemed
a payment of principal, and the provisions hereof shall immediately be reformed and the amounts
thereafter decreased or if Obligations paid in full refunded to Borrower, so as to comply
with the then applicable usury law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount
otherwise due under this Note.

GUARANTY. Guarantor, jointly and severally (if more than one), absolutely and unconditionally
guarantee the indefeasible, full, and prompt payment to Lender, including its successors
and assignees, of (i) any and all Obligations incurred by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement,
(ii) the full and prompt payment and performance when due of any and all additional obligations
of Borrower to Lender under this Agreement, together with any replacements, supplements,
renewals, modifications, consolidations, restatements and extensions thereof, and (iii) the
full and prompt payment and performance of any and all other obligations of Borrower to Lender
under any other agreements, documents or instruments now or hereafter evidencing, securing
or otherwise relating to the Obligations (this “Guaranty”). Guarantor
further agrees to repay the Obligations on demand, without requiring Lender first to enforce
or collect or exercise any rights, remedies, privileges, or powers against Borrower. This
is a guarantee of payment and performance, and not of collection. This is an absolute, unconditional,
primary, and continuing obligation and will remain in full force and effect until all of
the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and Lender has terminated this Guaranty.
This Guaranty shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, and shall
inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns. To the extent not prohibited
by applicable law, Guarantor waives its right to a trial by jury of any claim or cause of
action based upon, arising out of or related to this Guaranty, this Agreement and all other
documentation evidencing the Obligations, in any legal action or proceeding. For each Guarantor
that resides in a community property state, including, without limitation Arizona, California,
Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington and Wisconsin, or as otherwise requested
by Lender, the spouse of such Guarantor shall execute, at any time upon demand, and agree
to a Spousal Consent to Loan form. So long as any of the Obligations hereby guaranteed remain
indefeasibly unpaid or undischarged (other than indemnification obligations which by their
terms survive the indefeasible payment of the Obligations and the release of any Collateral)
or Lender has any obligation to make the Loan, (i) Guarantor will not, by paying any sum
recoverable hereunder (whether or not demanded by Lender) or by any means or on any other
ground, claim any set off or counterclaim against Borrower in respect of any liability of
Guarantor to Borrower, or (ii) in proceedings under federal bankruptcy law or insolvency
proceedings of any nature, prove in competition with Lender in respect of any payment hereunder,
or be entitled to have the benefit of, any counterclaim or proof of claim or dividend or
payment by or on behalf of Borrower or the benefit of any other security for any of the Obligations
which, now or hereafter, Lender may hold or in which it may have any share. Guarantor hereby
expressly waives any right of contribution or reimbursement from or indemnity against Borrower
or any other guarantor, whether at law or in equity, arising from any payments made by Guarantor,
and Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor has no right whatsoever to proceed against Borrower
or any other guarantor for reimbursement of any such payments for so long as any of the Obligations
remain indefeasibly unpaid or undischarged (other than indemnification obligations which
by their terms survive the indefeasible payment of the Obligations and the release of any
Collateral).
44. TRANSFERS
TO TRUSTS. Neither Borrower nor Guarantor shall transfer any assets into a trust, including
any actual or purported spendthrift trust, asset protection trust or any other trust intended
by its terms or purpose (or having the effect) to protect assets from creditors or to limit
the rights of existing or future creditors, without the prior written consent of Lender,
and any such transfer (i) shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement, (ii)
shall have the effect of, and shall be deemed as a matter of law, regardless of that settlor’s
solvency, of having been made by that settlor with the actual intent of hindering and delaying
and defrauding Lender as that settlor’s creditor, and (iii) shall constitute a fraudulent
transfer that is unenforceable and void (not merely voidable) as against Lender.
45. CLASS
ACTION WAIVER. THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO ASSERT ANY CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER
PARTY AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATITVE ACTION, EXCEPT WHERE
SUCH WAIVER IS PROHIBITED BY LAW AS AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY. TO THE EXTENT EITHER PARTY IS
PERMITTED BY LAW OR COURT OF LAW TO PROCEED WITH A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION AGAINST
THE OTHER, THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE THAT: (1) THE PREVAILING PARTY SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED
TO RECOVER ATTORNEYS’ FEES OR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PURSUING THE CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE
ACTION (NOT WITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION IN THIS AGREEMENT); AND (2) THE PARTY WHO INITIATES
OR PARTICIPATES AS A MEMBER OF THE CLASS WILL NOT SUBMIT A CLAIM OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE
IN ANY RECOVERY SECURED THROUGH THE CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.
