in the form of Conversion Shares that have been fully registered for resale under the Securities Act and are immediately salable by

(c) This

Note shall be immediately payable in full upon a Change of Control Transaction.

(d) The

Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note, plus accrued interest hereon shall be subject to mandatory prepayment to the extent of (i)

Stock Equivalents, whether pursuant to a resale registration statement or upon a financing in which AGP or any other investment bank

shall act as underwriter or placement agent (each a “Mandatory Prepayment”). Any such Mandatory Prepayment shall be

applied to the Weekly Installments of the $82,125 Minimum Installment Payments in the order of last maturing Indebtedness.

(e) From

and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note shall increase to the Default Amount and

this Note shall bear interest accruing at nineteen percent (19%) per annum, compounded daily and calculated on the basis of a 360-day

year, consisting of twelve 30-calendar-day periods, and shall accrue daily until payment in full of the Default Amount.

(f) Exchange

Cap. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, unless and until the Company obtains the approval of its stockholders as required

by the applicable rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company shall not issue, upon conversion of this Note or otherwise

pursuant hereto, a number of shares of Common Stock that, together with all other shares of Common Stock issued in any transaction required

to be aggregated therewith under such rules, would exceed the Maximum Conversion Shares (which, as provided in the Loan Agreement, may

not exceed 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock calculated on a non-diluted basis) (the “Exchange Cap”).

To the extent any conversion of this Note or other issuance hereunder would otherwise require the Company to issue shares of Common Stock

in excess of the Exchange Cap, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing such excess shares, pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to

the number of such excess shares multiplied by the closing market price of the Common Stock on the applicable conversion date, payable

in immediately available funds within three (3) Business Days following such conversion date.

Section

3. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges.

(a) Different

Denominations. This Note is exchangeable for an equal aggregate Principal Amount of Note of different authorized denominations,

as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be payable for such registration of transfer or exchange.

(b)

Investment Representations. This Note has been issued subject to certain investment representations of the original Holder set

forth in the Loan Agreement and may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance with the Loan Agreement and applicable

federal and state securities laws and regulations.

6

(c) Reliance

on Note Register. Prior to due presentment for transfer to the Company of this Note, the Company and any agent of the Company may

treat the Person in whose name this Note is duly registered on the official Note register of the Company as the owner hereof for the

purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Company

nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section

4. Covenants. As long as any portion of this Note remains outstanding, unless the Lender shall have otherwise given prior

written consent, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries (if any) to, directly or indirectly:

board approval); or

7

(k) enter

into any agreement or commitment with respect to any of the foregoing.

Section

5. Events of Default.

Reports) that (a) involves an obligation greater than $50,000, whether such Indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created,

and (b) results in such Indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise become

due and payable;

(ix) a

final non-appealable judgment by any competent court for the payment of money in an amount of at least $100,000 is rendered against the

Company, and the same remains undischarged and unpaid for a period of 45 days during which execution of such judgment is not effectively

stayed;

(x) the

Company shall fail to file with the SEC its Form 10-Q Quarterly Report for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026 by July 15, 2026,

report or Form 10-K annual financial reports required to be filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act (beyond any period of grace granted

by the SEC with respect thereto); or

(xi) the

Common Stock shall have ceased to be listed or quoted on Nasdaq, the New York Stock Exchange or the NYSE American.

(b) Remedies

Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, this Note shall become, at the Holder’s election,

immediately due and payable in the Default Amount, and the Holder shall have the right to convert all or any portion of this Note into

Conversion Shares at the Event of Default Conversion Price (as defined in Section 5(c)) up to the Maximum Conversion Shares or such number

of Conversion Shares based on the then Default Amount of this Note, and shall be entitled to exercise its rights and remedies in connection

therewith under the other Transaction Documents, including enforcing its rights under the Subsidiary Guarantee and Security Agreement.

Upon the conversion in full of the Default Amount in accordance with the terms of this Note, the Holder shall promptly surrender this

Note to or as directed by the Company. In connection with such acceleration or exercise described herein, the Holder need not provide,

and the Company hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without

expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under

applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall

have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this section 5(b). No

such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

(c)

Default Make Whole Shares. The Event of Default Conversion Price shall be equal to the greater of (a) seventy percent (70%) of

the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock during the twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable conversion

date and (b) the Floor Price (in each case, as defined in the Loan Agreement). In the event the Event of Default Conversion Price is

determined by reference to the Floor Price (that is, seventy percent (70%) of such lowest VWAP is less than the Floor Price), the

Company shall issue to the Holder additional Conversion Shares (the “Make Whole Shares”) in a number equal to (i) the

number of Conversion Shares that would have been issuable upon conversion of the applicable portion of the Default Amount at seventy

percent (70%) of such lowest VWAP, without giving effect to the Floor Price, minus (ii) the number of Conversion Shares actually

issued upon such conversion at the Floor Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the issuance of any Make Whole Shares

would cause the aggregate number of Conversion Shares issued under this Note to exceed the Maximum Conversion Shares

(representing 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock) absent approval of the Company’s stockholders,

the Company shall settle the value of such excess Make Whole Shares in cash, payable within three (3) Business Days following the

applicable conversion date and valued at the closing price of the Common Stock on such conversion date.

Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Note shall be

the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective

Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts

sitting in the County of Salt Lake, Utah (the “Utah Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the

exclusive jurisdiction of the Utah Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any

transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents),

and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, Action or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally

subject to the jurisdiction of such Utah Courts, or such Utah Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each

party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, Action or

10

(e) Waiver.

Any waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Note shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver

of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Note. The failure of the Company or the Holder

to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Note on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party

of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Note on any other occasion. Any waiver

by the Company or the Holder must be in writing.

(f) Severability.

If any provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect, and if any provision

is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances. If it

shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable

rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law. The

Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever

claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company

from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time

hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully

do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law,

hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such

as though no such law has been enacted.

(g)

Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Note shall be

cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in

equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the

Holder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this

Note. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly

provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation

thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any

other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations

hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company

therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other

available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing

economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall provide all information and documentation to

the Holder that is reasonably requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance with the terms

and conditions of this Note.

(h) Next

Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall

be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

(i) Headings.

The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Note and shall not be deemed to limit or affect

any of the provisions hereof.

Commencing six (6) months following the Closing Date, the Lender shall have the right, at its sole option, to convert all or any portion

of the then-outstanding balance of the Note into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the greater

of: (a) Ninety Percent (90%) of the lowest volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock

over the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion; or (b) the applicable Nasdaq Floor Price (the

“Conversion Price Formula”); provided, however, that:

(i)

so long as the Trading Market is Nasdaq, the Conversion Price and the Conversion Price Formula shall be subject to Nasdaq Rule 5635(d)

(the “Nasdaq Floor Price”),

(ii)

the Conversion Price shall be subject to one or more Conversion Price Reductions, and

(iii)

as a result of the application of the Nasdaq Floor Price or pursuant to any restrictions contained in the Ascent-Sarborg Purchase Agreements

the Company is restricted from issuing its Common Stock at a conversion price below a certain minimum price per share (such minimum per-share

conversion price, the “Floor Price”), in the event that the closing market price of the Common Stock on the Trading

Market at the time of notice of any one or more weekly installment conversions of the Note (the “Market Price” ) shall

be less than the Conversion Price then in effect based on the Conversion Price Formula, the Company shall pay to the Lender

a make-whole amount equal to the difference between (x) the number of shares the Lender would have received had the conversion been effected

at the Market Price and (y) the number of shares actually issued at the Floor Price, multiplied by the closing market price of the Common

Stock on the date of conversion (the “Make-Whole Amount”). The Make-Whole Amount shall be paid, at the Lender’s

election, either (A) in immediately available funds in cash within three (3) Business Days of the conversion date, or (B) freely tradeable,

registered shares of Common Stock valued at the Market Price on the conversion date, delivered to the Lender within two (2) trading days

following the conversion date (the “Make Whole Payment”). If the Lender elects to receive the Make-Whole Amount in shares

and the net proceeds actually realized by the Lender upon sale of such shares are less than the Make-Whole Amount, or if for any reason

(including the 19.99% limitation on share issuances described in this Agreement) the Company is unable to deliver freely tradeable shares

sufficient to satisfy the Make-Whole Amount in full, the Company shall pay the resulting shortfall to the Lender in cash within three

(3) Business Days following the Lender’s demand. For the avoidance of doubt, if, for example, the Market Price shall be $2.00 per

share and the Lender shall convert any weekly installment or the Note into 20,000 Conversion Shares when the Floor Price is $3.00 per

share, the Company shall pay to Lender an additional $1.00 per share or $20,000 in cash or free trading shares.

3

Notwithstanding

the foregoing, in the event of acceleration of the Obligations under the Note upon and following the occurrence of an uncured Event of

Default, the Lender shall have the right, at its sole option, to convert all or any portion of the then-outstanding balance (including

any default premium) into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to the greater of: (a) a seventy percent

(70%) of the lowest VWAP over the twenty (20) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion and (b) the Floor

Price (the “Event of Default Conversion Price”). In addition, in the event that the Event of Default Conversion Price

is determined by reference to the Floor Price (that is, seventy percent (70%) of the lowest VWAP over the twenty (20) consecutive trading

days immediately preceding the date of conversion is less than the Floor Price), the Company shall issue to the Lender additional immediately

salable Conversion Shares (the “Make Whole Shares”) equal to the difference between (x) the number of Conversion Shares

the Lender would have received had such conversion been effected at seventy percent (70%) of the lowest VWAP over the twenty (20) consecutive

trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion (without application of the Floor Price), and (y) the number of Conversion

Shares actually issued to the Lender at the Event of Default Conversion Price. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Floor Price is $3.00

per share and seventy percent (70%) of the lowest VWAP of the Company’s Common Stock over the twenty (20) consecutive trading days

immediately preceding the conversion date equals $1.50 per share, and the Lender converts a portion of the Note that yields 20,000 Conversion

Shares at the $3.00 Event of Default Conversion Price (the Floor Price), the Company shall issue to the Lender an additional 20,000 Conversion

Shares as Make Whole Shares (representing the 40,000 Conversion Shares the Lender would have received at the $1.50 per share Conversion

Price, less the 20,000 Conversion Shares issued at the $3.00 Floor Price). Accordingly, the aggregate number of Conversion Shares subject

to the Event of Default Conversion Price shall be subject to increase based on the issuance of additional Make Whole Shares, as provided

above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the issuance of any Make Whole Shares would cause the aggregate number of shares

of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Note to exceed 19.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock (the limitation

set forth in the definition of “Maximum Conversion Shares”) and stockholder approval for such issuance has not been

obtained, the Company shall settle the value of such excess Make Whole Shares in cash, payable in immediately available funds within

three (3) Business Days of the applicable conversion date, valued at the closing market price of the Common Stock on the conversion date.

“Conversion

Price Reductions” means that, if at any time while there remains an outstanding principal balance under the Note, the Company

issues, on any one or more occasions, any securities, including convertible notes or debentures, Common Stock or other Common Stock Equivalents,

other than an Exempt Issuance, at a conversion price, exercise price or per share price that is lower than such Conversion

Price based on the Conversion Price Formula, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to the lowest conversion price, exercise price or

per share price issued by the Company and the Maximum Conversion Shares shall be subject to appropriate increase as a result thereof.

“Conversion

Shares” shall mean the shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon any full or partial permitted conversion of the

Note and includes shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable if the Lender issues an Acceleration Notice that it elects to accelerate

the Loan for payment after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note) beyond the applicable grace

period, if any, for cure, the Conversion Price shall be the Event of Default Conversion Price and the Conversion Shares shall be up to

the Maximum Conversion Shares, and shall include the Make Whole Shares.

“Covenant

Compliance Guaranty Agreement” means the “limited guarantee agreement” executed by Dr. Andrew Regan, the Chief

Executive Officer of the Company, in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto.

“Default

Amount” means if an uncured Event of Default has occurred, the outstanding balance of the Note shall immediately become due

and payable in full, shall be increased to One Hundred and Twenty Percent (120%) of the then-outstanding principal amount of the Note,

and shall begin accruing interest at a default interest rate of Nineteen Percent (19%) per annum, compounded daily. The Lender shall

then have the right to convert the Default Amount at the Event of Default Conversion Price.

Investment” means any joint venture, partnership or other direct or indirect investments of the Loan Parties in Equity

Interests.

Receipts” means the aggregate amount of cash received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in consideration for

any issuance or sale by the Company or such Subsidiary on or after the Closing Date of (a) any of its Equity Interests or (b) any other

security or instrument representing Equity Interests (or the right to obtain any Equity Interests) in such Person, excluding any cash

received pursuant to an Exempt Issuance and reduced by any commissions or other transaction expenses paid by the Company in connection

with any such issuance or sale.

“Exempt

Issuance” means and is limited to: (i) the issuance by the Company of the Note, Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares, (ii)

the issuance of the maximum number of the Shares under the Ascent-Sarborg Purchase Agreements, (iii) the issuance of Common Stock or

Common Stock Equivalents in connection with any ATM Financings, and (iv) the issuance by the Company of any Common Stock or standard

options to purchase Common Stock to directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company or its Subsidiary in their capacity

as such pursuant to an employee benefit plan which has been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company prior to the date hereof

pursuant to which Common Stock and standard options to purchase Common Stock may be issued to any employee, officer, director or consultant

for services provided to the Company or its subsidiaries in their capacity as such. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Exempt

Issuance” does not mean or include the issuance of any other Indebtedness or debt securities or any other Common Stock or Common

Stock Equivalents by the Company or the Subsidiary, unless otherwise approved and consented to in writing in advance by the Lender.

“Exchange

in two tranches; namely $268,299.70 to pay Delaware franchise taxes and the balance of $1,133,300.30 if all conditions to such second

funding have been satisfied to the reasonable satisfaction of the Lender, after deduction of (i) a $58,400 Origination Fee due from the

Company to the Lender, representing four percent (4%) of the Loan which shall be retained by the Lender as 4% on each tranche of the

Loan for its own account, and (ii) payment in full of the Indebtedness of the Company under the Ascent LOC, all as set forth in the Flow

legality, validity or enforceability of any Transaction Document; (ii) a material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets,

business or financial condition of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantor, taken as a consolidated whole; or (iii) a material adverse

as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general

any property or asset of the Loan Parties are bound or affected; or (iii) subject to the Required Approvals, conflict with or result

Note will not obligate the Company to issue any securities to any Person (other than the Lender) and will not result in a right of any

holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange

or reset price under any of such securities. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are duly authorized, validly

issued, fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding

shares was issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities. Except for the Required

Approvals and waivers that have heretofore been obtained, no further approval or authorization of any stockholder, Board of Directors

or other Person(s) is required for the issuance and sale of the Note hereunder.

ATM Offering Capacity; Form S-3 Eligibility. The Company represents and warrants that:

(i)

The ATM Program was established under a prospectus supplement initially filed with the SEC on November 4, 2024 (as Conduit Pharmaceuticals

Inc.) pursuant to Form S-3 (File No. 333-282802) filed October 24, 2024, and was subsequently amended five times (Amendments No. 1–5,

filed January 15, February 6, February 10, February 19, and March 10, 2025), each subject to the baby shelf limitations of General Instruction

I.B.6 of Form S-3. Between January 2025 and March 2026, the Company effected four reverse stock splits (1-for-100, 1-for-15, 1-for-8,

and 1-for-25), causing its public float to exceed $75,000,000 as of March 24, 2026.

(v)

On April 2, 2026, the Company filed Amendment No. 6 to the ATM prospectus supplement, representing that it was no longer subject to the

baby shelf limitations under General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 and increased the ATM offering capacity from approximately $3,600,000

to $76,077,218 (the “ATM Offering Capacity”) based on a share price of $5.10.

(vi)

Although the Company’s public float has since declined below $75,000,000, the Company is permitted to continue offering and selling

shares under the ATM Program up to the full $76,077,218 ATM Offering Capacity, because the ATM Program was expanded while the public

float exceeded $75,000,000.

(vii)

As of June 11, 2026, the Company has sold 275,121 shares for net proceeds of $366,304.53, leaving $75,710,913.47 in remaining ATM Offering

Capacity (the “Available ATM Capacity”). During the term of the Loan, the Available ATM Capacity will not be reduced, and

the ATM Program will not be suspended or terminated.

and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements have been

Representations. The representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement, and the certificate(s) furnished

to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances

elsewhere in this Agreement or any representations and warranties contained in any other Transaction Document, or any other document

or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section

3.02 Representations and Warranties of the Lender.

The

Lender, for itself and for no other Person, hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Funding Date to the Company

as follows (unless as of a specific date therein, in which case they shall be accurate as of such date):

(a)

Authority; Organization. The Lender has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform all obligations required

to be performed by it hereunder. The Lender is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the

jurisdiction of its organization with full right, corporate or partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions

contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery

of the Transaction Documents and performance by the Lender of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have been duly

authorized by all necessary corporate or similar action on the part of the Lender. Each Transaction Document to which it is a party has

been duly executed by the Lender, and when delivered by the Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and

legally binding obligation of the Lender, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except: (i) as limited by general equitable

principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement

of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief

or other equitable remedies, and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.

(b)

Own Account. The Lender understands that the Note, the Warrant and the Conversion Shares are “restricted securities”

and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable State Securities Law and is acquiring the Note, the Warrant and

Conversion Shares as principal for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such the Note, the Warrant

or Conversion Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable State Securities Law, has no present intention

of distributing any of such the Note, the Warrant or Conversion Shares in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable State Securities

Law and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other persons to distribute or regarding the distribution of

such the Note (this representation and warranty not limiting the Lender’s right to sell the Note, the Warrant or Conversion Shares

in compliance with applicable federal and State Securities Laws) in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable State Securities

Law. The Lender is acquiring the Note hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

(c)

Non-Transferrable. The Lender agrees: (i) that the Lender will not sell, assign, pledge, give, transfer or otherwise dispose of the

Note, the Warrant or Conversion Shares or any interest therein, or make any offer or attempt to do any of the foregoing, except pursuant

to a registration of the Note, the Warrant and Conversion Shares under the Securities Act and all applicable State Securities Laws, or

in a transaction which is exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and all applicable State Securities Laws, (ii)

that the certificates representing the Note will bear a legend making reference to the foregoing restrictions, and (iii) that the Company

and its Affiliates shall not be required to give effect to any purported

transfer of such the Note, the Warrant and Conversion Shares except upon compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

21

(d)

Lender Status. The Lender is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under Regulation D of the Securities

Act. The undersigned agrees to furnish any additional information requested by the Company or any of its Affiliates to assure compliance

with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws in connection with the purchase and sale of the Note. Any information that has

been furnished or that will be furnished by the undersigned to evidence its status as an accredited investor is accurate and complete,

and does not contain any misrepresentation or material omission.

(e)

Experience of The Lender. The Lender, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication, and

experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in

the Note, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. The Lender is able to bear the economic risk of an investment

in the Note and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

(f)

No Trading Market. The Lender acknowledges that there is currently no trading market for the Note and that none is expected to develop

for the Note.

(g)

General Solicitation. The Lender acknowledges that neither the Company nor any other person offered to sell the Note to it by means

of any form of general solicitation or advertising, including, but not limited to: (i) any advertisement, article, notice, or other communication

published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, or (ii) any seminar or meeting whose attendees

were invited by any general solicitation or general advertising.

(h)

Confidentiality. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement and its advisors who have agreed to keep information confidential

or have a fiduciary obligation to keep such information confidential, the Lender has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures

made to it in connection with the transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction).

(i)

Foreign Lender. The Lender is a United States person and not a foreign Lender.

(j)

Information from Company. The Lender and its investment managers, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to obtain any information

necessary to verify the accuracy of any representations or information presented by the Company in this Agreement and have had all inquiries

to the Company answered, and have been furnished all requested materials, relating to the Company and the offering and sale of the Note

and anything set forth in the Transaction Documents. Neither the Lender nor the Lender’s investment managers, if any, have been

furnished any offering literature by the Company or any of its Affiliates, associates, or agents other than the Transaction Documents,

and the agreements referenced therein.

(k)

Speculative Nature of Investment; Risk Factors. THE LENDER UNDERSTANDS THAT AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTE INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF

RISK. The Lender acknowledges that: (i) any projections, forecasts or estimates as may have been provided to the Lender are purely

speculative and cannot be relied upon to indicate actual results that may be obtained through this investment; any such projections,

forecasts and estimates are based upon assumptions which are subject to change and which are beyond the control of the Company or its

management, (ii) the tax effects which may be expected by this investment are not susceptible to absolute prediction, and new developments

and rules of the Internal Revenue Service, audit adjustment, court decisions or legislative changes may have an adverse effect on one

or more of the tax consequences of this investment, and (iii) the Lender has been advised to consult with his own advisor regarding legal

matters and tax consequences involving this investment. The Lender represents that the Lender’s investment objective is speculative

in that the Lender seeks the maximum total return through an investment

in a broad spectrum of securities, which involves a higher degree of risk than other investment styles and therefore the Lender’s

risk exposure is also speculative. The Note offered hereby is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk and Lender should

only purchase these securities if Lender can afford to lose its entire investment.

22

(l)

Money Laundering. The operations of the Lender are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with the Money Laundering

Laws, and no Action or Proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Lender

with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the knowledge of the Lender, threatened.

The

Company acknowledges and agrees that the representations contained in Section 3.02 shall not modify, amend or affect the Lender’s

right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations and warranties

contained in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this Agreement

or the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby.

thirty (30) calendar days of such occurrence, take all necessary corporate actions, including obtaining stockholder approval (if not

already in place) and effecting a reverse stock split in a ratio sufficient to cause the closing bid price to exceed $1.00 per share

and regain compliance;

(h)

the Company shall promptly (and in no event later than two (2) business days after receipt) notify the Lender in writing of any deficiency

notices, delisting determinations, hearing requests, panel decisions, or other correspondence received from Nasdaq relating to the continued

listing of the Company’s securities;

(i)

no payments of Indebtedness shall be paid to any Affiliate, other than payments of deferred compensation to members of the board of directors

and employees of the Company;

(j)

the Loan Parties shall not permit any Person to have a Lien on any of the assets of any of the Loan Parties, except for Permitted Liens;

and

(k)

the Loan Parties shall comply with all of the additional affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the Note and the Security Agreement.

The

Company covenants and agrees that a breach or violation of any of the above covenants set forth in this Section 4.01 shall constitute

an Event of Default under this Agreement, the Note and the other Transaction Documents.

Section

4.02 Most Favored Nations Agreement. If, at any time during the term of the Note, the Company enters into any debt or equity financing

transaction with any third Person on terms that in the aggregate are more favorable to such third Person than the terms set forth in

this Agreement, the Note and other Transaction Documents (as reasonably determined by the Lender), the Lender shall have the right, at

its sole option, to require the Company to amend the terms of this Agreement, the Note or other Transaction Documents to match such more

favorable terms. The Company shall provide the Lender with written notice of any such financing within two (2) Business Days of execution

of any related agreement, together with copies of all related transaction documents.

Section

4.03 Transfer Restrictions.

(a)

The Note, Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection

with any transfer of the Note, Warrant Shares or Conversion Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule

144, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably

acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that

such transfer does not require registration of such transferred the Note, Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares under the Securities Act.

As a condition of such sale or transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall

have the rights of Lender under this Agreement.

(b)

The Lender agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.03, of a legend on any of the Note, the Warrant Shares

and Conversion Shares in the following form:

THIS

SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON

AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED

(THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS

OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA

FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY THIS SECURITY.

24

Section

4.04 Use of Proceeds; Restrictions on Certain Payments. The Company shall use the net proceeds paid to it under the Flow of Funds

Agreement for general working capital purposes.

Section

4.05 Future Subsidiary. Any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company formed or acquired after the Funding Date and before

the Note shall have been repaid in full shall promptly thereafter execute and deliver (or otherwise join and agree to be bound as a Subsidiary

of the Company under) the applicable Security Agreement.

Section

4.06 Stockholders Meeting. Notwithstanding anything contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in the Transaction Documents, the

issuance of Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares upon conversion of the Note and/or exercise of the Warrant, as applicable, may require

stockholder approval in accordance with the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Stockholder Approval”).

Not later than thirty (30) days after the date the Company files its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,

2026, in the event that the Note shall not have previously been paid in full, and in order to insure compliance with applicable Nasdaq

Rules, the Company shall hold a special meeting of its stockholders to obtain Stockholder Approval (the “Stockholders Meeting”).

In such connection, the Company shall (i) include in any proxy or information statement submitted to stockholders a statement that the

board of directors of the Company recommends that the stockholders vote IN FAVOR of adoption of resolutions approving in all respects

this Agreement, all other Transaction Documents and all of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, (ii) use its reasonable

best efforts to obtain approval of such resolutions by the holders of record of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock or other voting

securities of the Company on the record date set forth in such proxy or information statement; and (iii) cause all officers and directors

of the Company to vote their shares of Common Stock in favor of the foregoing resolutions; and (iv) shall use its best efforts to obtain

commitments from other holders of 5% or more of the outstanding Common Stock to vote their shares of Common Stock in favor of the foregoing

resolutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, the limitations on the issuance

of shares of Common Stock under the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (including the 19.99% limitation described in this

Agreement) and any failure to obtain Stockholder Approval shall restrict only the issuance of shares of Common Stock and shall not reduce,

impair or otherwise affect the Company’s monetary Obligations under the Note or the other Transaction Documents. To the extent

that any shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion of the Note, exercise of the Warrant or in payment of any Obligation

cannot be issued as a result of any such limitation, insufficient authorized and reserved shares, or the failure to obtain Stockholder

Approval, the Company shall, unless the Lender otherwise agrees in writing, pay to the Lender in cash an amount equal to the economic

value of the shares of Common Stock that cannot be so issued.

Section

4.07 Integration. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale, or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any

security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Note to the Lender in

a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the issuance and sale of the Note to the Lender.

25

Section

4.08 Publicity. The Company and the Lender shall consult with each other in issuing any other press releases and SEC Reports with

respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor the Lender shall issue any such press release or SEC Report

nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent

of the Company with respect to any press release of the Lender, or without the prior consent of the Lender with respect to any press

release or SEC Report of the Company mentioning the Lender, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such

disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public

statement, SEC Report or communication. The Company will publish a press release announcing this transaction approved by the Lender within

four (4) Business Days following the Funding Date.

Section

4.09 Indemnification of Lender. The Company shall indemnify, reimburse and hold harmless the Lender and its partners, members,

shareholders, officers, directors, employees and agents (and any other persons with other titles that have similar functions) (collectively,

“Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, claims, liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, costs and expenses,

of any kind or nature, (including fees relating to the cost of investigating and defending any of the foregoing) imposed on, incurred

by or asserted against such Indemnitee in any way related to or arising from or alleged to arise from: (i) any breach of any of the representations,

warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents and (ii) any action instituted

against such Indemnitee in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is not

an Affiliate of such Indemnitee, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action

is based upon a breach of such Indemnitee’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements

or understandings such Indemnitee may have with any such stockholder or any violations by such Indemnitee of state or federal securities

laws or any conduct by such Indemnitee which results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnitee as determined

by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction).

Section

4.10 ATM Financing; Payment Direction Agreement; Deposit Account Control. Until all Obligations have been paid in full, without the prior

written consent of the Lender, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly: (i) amend, suspend, terminate, replace, reduce or otherwise

modify the ATM Financing, the Payment Direction Agreement, the AGP instructions, the Company’s brokerage account instructions,

the DACA or the deposit account subject to the DACA; or (ii) direct AGP, the Bank, any depository or brokerage maintaining any such account,

or any other Person to pay, apply or distribute the net proceeds of any ATM Financing other than as required by the Payment Direction

Agreement and the DACA. The Company shall (A) at all times maintain the deposit account subject to the DACA in full force and effect

until all Obligations have been paid in full, and (B) obtain Stockholder Approval (and any other stockholder approval required under

the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC or applicable law) to the extent necessary to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the

limitations described in Section 4.06 or at any price below the applicable Nasdaq minimum price. Any breach of this Section 4.10 shall

constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Note and the other Transaction Documents.

ARTICLE

V

MISCELLANEOUS

Section

5.01 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by the Lender by written notice to the Company if the Closing has not been

consummated on or before the third Business Day after the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by both parties; provided

that such termination will not affect the right of any party to sue for any breach by the other party.

Section

5.02 Fees and Expenses. The Company shall bear the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of the Company and the Lender

incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, including,

without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and expenses (including previously paid fees to Lender’s

counsel of $30,000), transfer agent fees, fees for stock quotation services, fees relating to any amendments or

modifications of the Transaction Documents or any consents or waivers of provisions in the Transaction Documents, fees for the preparation

of opinions of counsel, escrow fees, and costs of restructuring the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. When possible,

the Company must pay these fees directly, including, but not limited to, any and all wire fees, otherwise the Company must make immediate

payment for reimbursement to the Lender for all fees and expenses immediately upon written notice by the Lender or the submission of

an invoice by the Lender. In addition, the Company shall pay the origination fee to the Lender as specified hereinabove.

26

Section

5.03 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding

of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with

respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules.

Section

5.05 Amendments; Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented, or amended except in a written

instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and the Lender or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom

enforcement of any such waived provision is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement

of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other

provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner

impair the exercise of any such right.

Section

5.06 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors

and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent

of the Lender (other than by merger). The Lender may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom the

Lender assigns or transfers the Note, and/or participate any of such rights in connection with granting of any participation of the Note,

provided that such transfer or participation complies with all applicable federal and State Securities Laws and that any such transferee

or participant agrees in writing by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to the Lender.

27

Section

5.07 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors

and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

Section

5.08 Governing Law.

All

questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and

construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Utah, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws

thereof. Each Party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated

by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a Party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders,

employees or agents), shall be commenced exclusively in the federal and state courts sitting in Salt Lake County, Salt Lake City, Utah

(the “Utah Courts”). Each Party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Utah Courts

for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein

(including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert

in any suit, Action or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such Utah Courts, or that such

Utah Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding or that such Party may obtain an exemption from Utah law based on

any public policies or principles of any other State or jurisdiction. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process

and consents to process being served in any such suit, Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail

or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such Party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees

that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed

to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. Each Party hereto hereby irrevocably

waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of

or relating to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby. If any Party shall commence an Action or Proceeding

to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then the prevailing Party in such Action or Proceeding shall be reimbursed by

the other Party for its attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution

of such Action or Proceeding.

Section

5.09 Survival. The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Note.

Section

5.10 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered

one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party,

it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission

or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party

executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature

page was an original thereof.

Section

5.11 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction

to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall

remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially

reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve

the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated

and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions

without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

28

Section

5.12 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar

provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever the Lender exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction

Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then the Lender may rescind

or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in

whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

Section

5.13 Replacement of the Note. If any certificate or instrument evidencing the Note is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the

Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation),

or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to

the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also

pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement the Note.

Section

5.14 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages,

the Lender and the Company will be entitled to seek specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary

damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents

and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at

law would be adequate.

Section

5.15 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Lender pursuant to any Transaction Document

or the Lender enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise

or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by

or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including,

without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such

restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect

as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

Section

5.16 Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel has reviewed and had an opportunity to

revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved

against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments hereto. In addition,

each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse

and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the

date of this Agreement.

Section

5.17 Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed

to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

Section

5.18 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY,

THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY,

IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
