$3,000,000.00 (the “Principal Amount”)

September

(iii) the

Maker shall (A) default in any payment of any amount or amounts of principal of or interest (if any) on any indebtedness, the aggregate

due prior to its stated maturity or (B) default in the observance or performance of any other agreement or condition relating to any

such indebtedness or contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto, or any other event shall occur

or condition exist, the effect of which default or other event or condition is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders or beneficiary

or beneficiaries of such indebtedness to cause with the giving of notice if required, such indebtedness to become due prior to its stated

maturity and any such default is not remedied within five (5) Business Days from the Event of Default occurring by the Maker’s

failure to comply with this provision;

(iv) the

Maker shall: (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of, or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee or liquidator

of itself or of all or a substantial part of its property or assets; (ii) make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

(iii) commence a voluntary case under the United States Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect) or under the comparable laws

of any jurisdiction (foreign or domestic); (iv) file a petition seeking to take advantage of any bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,

filed against it in an involuntary case under the United States Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect) or under the comparable

laws of any jurisdiction (foreign or domestic); (vi) issue a notice of bankruptcy or winding down of its operations or issue a press

release regarding same; or (vii) take any action under the laws of any jurisdiction (foreign or domestic) analogous to any of the foregoing;

(v) a

proceeding or case shall be commenced in respect of the Maker, without its application or consent, in any court of competent jurisdiction,

seeking: (i) the liquidation, reorganization, moratorium, dissolution, winding up, or composition or readjustment of its debts; (ii)

the appointment of a trustee, receiver, custodian, liquidator or the like of it or of all or any substantial part of its assets in connection

with the liquidation or dissolution of the Maker; or (iii) similar relief in respect of it under any law providing for the relief of

debtors, and such proceeding or case described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) shall continue undismissed, or unstayed and in effect, for

a period of forty-five (45) days or any order for relief shall be entered in an involuntary case under the United States Bankruptcy Code

(as now or hereafter in effect) or under the comparable laws of any jurisdiction (foreign or domestic) against the Maker or action under

the laws of any jurisdiction (foreign or domestic) analogous to any of the foregoing shall be taken with respect to the Maker and shall

continue undismissed, or unstayed and in effect for a period of forty-five (45) days;

(vi) one

or more final judgments or orders for the payment of money aggregating in excess of $1,500,000 (or its equivalent in the relevant currency

of payment) are rendered against the Maker; or

(vii) an

event of default occurs under any agreement between the Lender, on one hand, and the Maker, on the other.

Except

as expressly provided herein, the Maker waives presentment, demand, notice, protest, and all other demands or notices in connection with

the delivery, acceptance, endorsement, performance, default or enforcement of this Note, waives all suretyship defenses and defenses

in the nature thereof, and agrees to be bound by all the terms and conditions contained in this Note executed in connection herewith.

No

delay or omission of the holder in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver of any such right or remedy. Acceptance

by the Lender of any payment after acceleration shall not be deemed a waiver of such acceleration. A waiver on one occasion shall not

operate as a bar to or waiver of any such right or remedy on any future occasion.

The

Lender need not enter payments of principal or interest upon this Note but may maintain a record thereof on a separate ledger maintained

by the Lender.

Time

is of the essence of this Note.

The

word “holder” as used in this Note, shall mean the payee or endorsee of the Note who is in possession of it or the bearer

if this Note is at the time payable to bearer.

If

any provision of this Note is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed

modified to the extent necessary to be enforceable, or if such modification is not practicable, such provision shall be deemed deleted

from this Note, and the other provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect, and shall be construed in favor of holder.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, it is the express intention of Maker and holder to conform strictly to any applicable

usury laws. Accordingly, all agreements between Maker and holder, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether written or oral,

are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of this

Note or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender or the holder of this Note for the use, forbearance or detention

of the money loaned pursuant hereto or otherwise, or for the payment or performance of any covenant or obligation contained herein or

in any other document executed in connection herewith, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance

or contingency whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other document executed in connection herewith, at the time

performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then, ipso facto, the

obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any such circumstance or contingency holder shall

ever receive as interest or otherwise an amount which would exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted by applicable law, the amount

of such excess shall be applied to a reduction of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, and not to the payment of interest, and if

such excessive interest exceeds such indebtedness, the amount of such excessive interest shall be refunded to Maker. If at any time this

Note prescribes a rate of interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to holder for the

use, forbearance or detention of the money loaned pursuant to this Note shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout

the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full, so that the actual rate of interest on account of such indebtedness is uniform

throughout the term hereof. The transaction contemplated by this Note shall be deemed to have occurred in and been entered into in the

State of New York, the loan made as reflected in the Note shall be deemed to have been extended in New York, repayment shall be required

to be made in New York and any payment, when made, shall be deemed to have occurred in New York.

All

notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless

otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served, (ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested,

postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram,

or facsimile, addressed as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice.

Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed effective (a) upon hand delivery or delivery

by facsimile, with accurate confirmation generated by the transmitting facsimile machine, at the address or number designated below (if

delivered on a Business Day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received), or the first Business Day following such

delivery (if delivered other than on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received) or (b) on the second

Business Day following the date of mailing by express courier service, fully prepaid, addressed to such address, or upon actual receipt

of such mailing, whichever shall first occur.

This

Note shall be governed by and construed solely and exclusively in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without

regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. The parties hereto hereby expressly and irrevocably agree that any suit or proceeding

arising directly and/or indirectly pursuant to or under this Note shall be brought solely in a federal or state court located in the

City, County and State of New York. By its execution hereof, in the case of Maker, or acceptance, in the case of Lender, the parties

hereby covenant and irrevocably submit to the in personam jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the City, County and

State of New York and agree that any process in any such action may be served upon any of them personally, or by certified mail or registered

mail upon them or their agent, return receipt requested, with the same full force and effect as if personally served upon them in New

York City. The parties hereto expressly and irrevocably waive any claim that any such jurisdiction is not a convenient forum for any

such suit or proceeding and any defense or lack of in personam jurisdiction with respect thereto. In the event of any such action or

proceeding, the party prevailing therein shall be entitled to payment from the other party hereto of all of its reasonable counsel fees

and disbursements. This Note shall be deemed an unconditional obligation of Maker for the payment of money and, without limitation to

any other remedies of Holder, may be enforced against Maker by summary proceeding pursuant to New York Civil Procedure Law and Rules

Section 3213 or any similar rule or statute in the jurisdiction where enforcement is sought. For purposes of such rule or statute, any

other document or agreement to which Holder and Maker are parties or which Maker delivered to Holder, which may be convenient or necessary

to determine Holder’s rights hereunder or Maker’s obligations to Holder are deemed a part of this Note, whether or not such

other document or agreement was delivered together herewith or was executed apart from this Note.

of no basis for any such claim.

4

geographic areas.

etc. The Maker has obtained and holds in full force and effect, all licenses, permits, certificates, authorizations,

qualifications, accreditations, easements, rights of way and other rights, consents and approvals which are necessary for the

operation of their businesses as presently conducted, except where the failure to so obtain the foregoing could not, individually or

in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section

1.14 Subsidiaries. All of the direct and indirect Subsidiaries of the Maker are set forth in the SEC Reports. The Maker owns,

directly or indirectly, all of the share capital or other equity interests of each Subsidiary as set forth in the SEC Reports free and

such time of filing and has filed any such SEC Reports prior to the expiration of any such extension. As of their respective dates, the

SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, and none

of the SEC Reports, 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 the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not

misleading. The Maker is not currently an issuer subject to paragraph (i) of Rule 144. The financial statements of the Maker

present in all material respects the financial position of the Maker and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof

and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial,

year-end audit adjustments.

5

Section

1.16 Material Changes; Undisclosed Events, Liabilities or Developments. Since the date of the latest audited financial statements

has been no event, occurrence or development that has had or that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect,

(ii) other than intracompany loans, neither the Maker nor any Subsidiary has incurred any liabilities (contingent or otherwise)

other than liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business, and (iii) the Maker has not altered its method of accounting. The

Maker does not have pending before the Commission any request for confidential treatment of information. To the knowledge of the Maker,

no event, liability, fact, circumstance, occurrence or development has occurred or exists or is reasonably expected to occur or exist

with respect to the Maker or its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, properties, operations, assets or financial condition,

that would be required to be disclosed by the Maker under applicable securities laws at the time this representation is made or deemed

made that has not been publicly disclosed at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date that this representation is made.

Section

1.17 Compliance. Neither the Maker nor any Subsidiary: (i) is in default under or in violation of (and no event has occurred that

has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a default by the Maker or any Subsidiary under), nor

has the Maker or any Subsidiary received notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture,

loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound

(whether or not such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any applicable judgment, decree or order of any court,

arbitrator, Principal Market, governmental or administrative agency, regulatory authority, self-regulatory organization (federal, state,

county, local or foreign) or other Government Body other than as set forth in the SEC Reports, or (iii) is or has been in violation of

any applicable statute, rule, ordinance or regulation of any Government Body, including without limitation all applicable foreign, federal,

state and local laws relating to taxes, bribery and corruption, occupational health and safety, product quality and safety, employment

and labor matters, employee benefits and laws related to the protection of the environment, except, in each case of clauses (i), (ii)

and (iii), as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section

1.18 Solvency; Seniority. Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Maker as of the Issuance Date, after giving effect

to the receipt by the Maker of the proceeds from the sale of the Note hereunder: (i) the fair saleable value of the Maker’s tangible

assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Maker’s existing indebtedness and other liabilities

(including known contingent liabilities) as they mature, and (ii) the Maker’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital

to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular

capital requirements of the business conducted by the Maker, consolidated and projected capital requirements and capital availability

thereof. The Maker does not intend to incur indebtedness beyond its ability to pay such indebtedness as they mature (taking into account

the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its indebtedness). The Maker has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances

which lead it to believe that it will file for bankruptcy, insolvency, administration, judicial management, reorganization or liquidation

under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the Issuance Date.

Section

1.19 Sarbanes-Oxley; Internal Accounting Controls. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, the Maker and the Subsidiaries are

in compliance in all material respects with any applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of the

date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the Commission thereunder that are effective as of the date

hereof and as of the Issuance Date. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, the Maker and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal

accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s

general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity

with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general

or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals

and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Maker and the Subsidiaries have established disclosure controls

and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Maker and the Subsidiaries and designed such disclosure

controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Maker in the reports it files or submits under the

Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.

The Maker’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures of the Maker and the

Subsidiaries as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation

Date”). The Maker presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying

officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since

the Evaluation Date, except as set forth in the SEC Reports, there have been no changes in the internal control over financial reporting

(as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal

control over financial reporting of the Maker and its Subsidiaries.

Section

1.20 Cybersecurity. To the Maker’s knowledge, (x) there has been no security breach or other compromise of or relating

to any of the Maker’s or any Subsidiary’s information technology and computer systems, networks, hardware, software, data

(including the data of its respective customers, employees, suppliers, vendors and any third party data maintained by or on behalf of

it), equipment or technology (collectively, “IT Systems and Data”). The Maker and the Subsidiaries have not been notified

of, and has no knowledge of any event or condition that would reasonably be expected to result in, any security breach or other compromise

to its IT Systems and Data. The Maker and the Subsidiaries are presently in compliance with all applicable laws or statutes and all judgments,

orders, rules and regulations of any court or arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority, internal policies and contractual obligations

relating to the privacy and security of IT Systems and Data and to the protection of such IT Systems and Data from unauthorized use,

access, misappropriation or modification, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The

Maker and the Subsidiaries have implemented and maintained commercially reasonable safeguards to maintain and protect its material confidential

information and the integrity, continuous operation, redundancy and security of all IT Systems and Data. The Maker and the Subsidiaries

have implemented backup and disaster recovery technology consistent with industry standards and practices.

Section

1.21 Investment Company. The Maker is not, and is not an affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Note,

will not be or be an affiliate of, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The Maker shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become an “investment company” subject to registration

under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Section

1.22 No-Off Balance Sheet Arrangements. There are no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent

obligations) or liabilities of the Maker or any Subsidiary.

Section

1.23 Certain Matters related to Management. No member of the Maker’s management (a) has had a petition under the federal

bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency laws filed by or against them, or has had a receiver, fiscal agent or similar officer appointed

by a court for the business or property of (i) them, (ii) any partnership in which they were a general partner at, or within two years

before, the time of such filing or (iii) other than as set forth in the SEC Reports, any Maker or business association of which they

were an executive officer at, or within two years before, the time of such filing; (b) been convicted in a criminal proceeding or named

the subject of a pending criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations and driving a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs

offenses; (c) been the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court, permanently

or temporarily enjoining or limiting them from any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or commodity; (d)

except as set forth in the SEC Reports, been found by a court in a civil action or by the Commission to have violated any federal or

state securities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended

or vacated; or (e) been found by a court in a civil action or by the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated any federal

commodities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commodities Futures Trading Commission has not been subsequently

reversed, suspended or vacated.
