k. Litigation. There are no actions, suits, arbitrations, regulatory proceedings or other litigation, proceedings or governmental investigations pending or, to the Knowledge of Borrower or any Subsidiary, threatened against Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their officers or directors in their capacity as such, or any of their properties or businesses, and Borrower has no Knowledge of any facts or circumstances which may reasonably be likely to give rise to any of the foregoing.

None of Borrower or any Subsidiary’s employees is a member of a union that relates to such employee’s relationship with Borrower or a Subsidiary, and neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary is a party to a collective bargaining agreement, and Borrower reasonably believes that their relationship with their employees is good. No executive officer, to the Knowledge of Borrower, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment or consulting contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant in favor of any third party, and the continued employment or engagement of each such executive officer does not subject either Borrower or any Subsidiary to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. Each of Borrower and the Subsidiaries is in material compliance with all U.S. federal, state, and local laws, all applicable foreign laws, and all U.S. and foreign regulations relating to employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where the failure to be in compliance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have or cause a Material Adverse Effect.

m. Material Contracts. Excepting the Loan Documents, the SEC Reports set forth true, complete and correct lists of every Material Contract currently in effect to which the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries is a party. Each of the Material Contracts is in full force and effect and there is not now and there has not been claimed or alleged by any Person with respect to any of the Material Contracts, any existing default, or event that with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default or event of default, on the part of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries or on the part of any other party thereto; no consent from, or notice to, any Governmental Authority or other Person is required in order to maintain in full force and effect any of the Material Contracts, other than such consents that have been obtained and are in full force and effect.

n. Regulatory Permits. Borrower and SCM Subsidiary possess all certificates, authorizations and Permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities, including the EIS, necessary to conduct its business as described in the SEC Reports, except where the failure to possess such Permits could not reasonably be expected to result in or cause a Material Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”), and neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit.

o. Title to Assets. Each of Borrower and the Subsidiaries has good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property owned by it and good and marketable title in all personal property owned by it that is material to the business of Borrower or any Subsidiary, as applicable, in each case free and clear of all Liens, except for Liens as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by such entity and Liens for the payment of federal, state or other taxes, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties. Any real property and facilities held under lease by either Borrower or any Subsidiary are held by it under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with which such entity is in compliance.

p. Mining Interests. The Borrower, though SCM Subsidiary, holds Good and Defensible Title to the Cerro Xxxxxx Project. Neither the Borrower nor SCM Subsidiary is in material breach or default (and no situation exists which with the passing of time or giving of notice would give rise to such a breach or default) of SCM Subsidiary’s obligations under any of the Cerro Xxxxxx Basic Documents, and no breach or default by any other party to any Cerro Xxxxxx Basic Document (or situation which with the passage of time or giving of notice would give rise to such a breach or default) exists, to the extent such breach or default (whether by SCM Subsidiary or another party to any Cerro Xxxxxx Basic Document) could adversely affect any of the interests of SCM Subsidiary in and to the Cerro Xxxxxx Project. All conditions necessary to maintain the Cerro Xxxxxx Basic Documents in force have been duly performed. To the Knowledge of Borrower, no delinquent unpaid bills or past due charges exist for any labor and materials incurred by or on behalf of the Borrower or SCM Subsidiary related to the exploration, development or operation of the Cerro Xxxxxx Project. No suit, action or proceeding (including, without limitation, tax or environmental demands proceedings) is pending or threatened, which might result in material impairment or loss of title to any of the interests in the Cerro Xxxxxx Project or the material value thereof.

q. Survival of Representations and Warranties. Borrower understands and agrees that Lender, without independent investigation, is relying upon the above representations and warranties in making the Loan to Borrower.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, WHITE MOUNTAIN TITANIUM CORPORATION, a Nevada corporation (the “Borrower”), hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the order of NEXO WMTM HOLDINGS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Holder”), the principal sum of TWO MILLION U.S. Dollars (the “Principal Amount”), together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon (as provided below).

This Note is made and issued by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of a Loan Agreement between the Borrower and the Holder dated March 16, 2016 (the “Loan Agreement”) which is expressly incorporated herein. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement.

In no event shall any interest charged, collected or reserved under this Note exceed the maximum rate then permitted by applicable law and if any such payment is paid by the Borrower, then such excess sum shall be credited by the Holder as a payment of principal.

AS AN IMPORTANT NOTICE, THIS CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE CONTAINS A CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT PROVISION WHICH CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF IMPORTANT RIGHTS THE BORROWER MAY HAVE AS A DEBTOR AND FURTHER ALLOWS THE LENDER OR ITS SUCCESSOR IN INTEREST TO OBTAIN A JUDGMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE.

1. Interest Rate and Repayment of Principal Amount. The Principal Amount outstanding under this Note shall accrue interest at the rate of SEVEN PERCENT (7%) per annum (“Standard Interest Rate”) beginning on March 16, 2016 (“Issuance Date”). Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days regardless of the total days the loan is outstanding. The Principal Amount and all then-accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable two years after the Issuance Date, on March 16, 2018 (the “Maturity Date”). Following any Event of Default, the Principal Amount and all then-accrued and unpaid interest shall immediately begin to accrue interest at the increased rate of TWENTY-FIVE PERCENT (25%) per annum (“Default Interest Rate”).

2. Repayment Extension. If any payment of principal or interest shall be due on a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which banking institutions in the State of Utah are required or permitted to be closed, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest under this Note.

3. Manner and Application of Payments. All payments due hereunder shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender in payment of all debts and dues, public and private, in immediately available funds, without offset, deduction or recoupment. Any payment by check or draft shall be subject to the condition that any receipt issued therefor shall be ineffective unless the amount due is actually received by the Holder. Each payment shall be applied first to the payment of any and all costs, fees and expenses incurred by or payable to the Holder in connection with the collection or enforcement of this Note, second to the payment of all unpaid late charges (if any), third, to the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest hereunder and fourth, to the payment of the unpaid Principal Amount, or in any other manner which the Holder may, in its sole discretion, elect from time to time.

4. Senior Status of Note. So long as this Note remains outstanding, neither the Borrower nor any subsidiary of the Borrower shall, without the prior written consent of the Holder, or the Holders holding a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of this Note, incur or otherwise become liable with respect to any indebtedness that would rank senior or pari passu to this Note in order of payment, other than (i) indebtedness in existence on the date hereof, (ii) secured indebtedness used solely to finance the purchase or lease of assets (provided that such debt may only be secured by the purchased or leased assets and not by any other assets of the Borrower), or (iii) indebtedness to trade creditors in the ordinary course of business.

5. Conversion.

(a) Voluntary Conversion. Subject to and in compliance with, the provisions contained herein, the Holder is entitled, at its option, at any time prior to the Maturity Date, or in case this Note or some portion hereof shall have been called for prepayment prior to such date, then, in respect of this Note or such portion hereof, until and including, but not after, the close of business within 30 days of the date of notice of prepayment, to convert the original principal amount of this Note (or any portion thereof), together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon, into fully paid and nonassessable shares (calculated as to each conversion to the nearest share) of Series A Shares by surrender of this Note, duly endorsed (if so required by the Borrower) or assigned to the Borrower or in blank, to “White Mountain Titanium Corporation” at its offices, accompanied by written notice to the Borrower, in the form set forth below, that the holder hereof selects to convert this Note or, if less than the entire principal amount hereof is to be converted, the portion hereof to be converted. Such conversion shall be effected at the rate of $0.12 per Share. No fractions of Shares will be issued on conversion.

(b) Mandatory Conversion. If (i) the Borrower at any time successfully raises US$8,000,000 through the effectors of the Holder, or otherwise, that are specifically earmarked for the Qualified Financings Milestones (as defined below), or (ii) the Borrower and the Holder obtain (A) a legally binding offtake agreement with a third party for water arising from the Borrower’s desalination plant for its Cerro Xxxxxx Project which is (B) for an offtake volume and price that is mutually satisfactory to the parties, then all principal and accrued interest shall automatically convert into Series A Shares at a conversion price equal to $0.12 per share upon the completion of the Qualified Financing or execution of the offtake agreement, whichever first occurs. For purposes of this Section 5(b), “Qualified Financing Milestones” means the following tasks occurring during the designated periods:

Year 1: Qualified Financing Milestones: In addition to the monies represented by this Note, the Borrower shall successfully raise an additional US$2,700,000 which are earmarked and spent effectuating the following:

	•	Completion of bank feasibility study;
	•	Completion of land purchase for resettlement; and
	•	Commencement of technical training for project personnel.

6. Prepayment. This Note is subject to prepayment, in whole or in part, at any time upon not less than 30 days’ notice at the election of the Borrower.

During the 30 days following the date of any notice of prepayment, the holder shall have the right to convert this Note on the terms and conditions provided for in paragraph 5 above.

7. Change of Control. In the event that the Borrower enters into a Change in Control transaction, the Holder will be entitled to immediately demand repayment of all amounts due and owing on this Note with a premium equal to 25% of all amounts due and owing. For the purposes of this Note, a “Change in Control” means the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Borrower; any merger, consolidation or acquisition of the Borrower with, by or into another corporation, entity or person; or any change in the ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting capital stock of the Borrower in one or more related transactions.

8. Remedies.

(a) Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement), and without demand or notice of any kind: (i) all outstanding amounts under this Note (including the outstanding Principal Amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest less any principal payments previously made) shall become immediately due and payable; and (ii) the Holder may exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it at law, in equity or otherwise.

(b) Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power and remedy of the Holder hereunder shall be cumulative and concurrent, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any one or more of them shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Holder of any or all such other rights, powers or remedies. No failure or delay by the Holder to insist upon the strict performance of any one or more provisions of this Note or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof or default hereunder shall constitute a waiver thereof or preclude the Holder from exercising any such right, power or remedy. By accepting full or partial payment after the due date of any amount of principal of or interest on this Note, or other amounts payable on demand, the Holder shall not be deemed to have waived the right either to require prompt payment when due and payable of all other amounts of principal of or interest on this Note or other amounts payable on demand, or to exercise any rights and remedies available to it in order to collect all such other amounts due and payable under this Note.

(c) Costs of Collection. If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection following the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder for reasons not included within the Confession of Judgment below, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Holder upon demand all reasonable costs and expenses, including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by the Holder in connection with the enforcement or collection of this Note (whether or not any action has been commenced by the Holder to enforce or collect this Note) or in successfully defending any counterclaim or other legal proceeding brought by the Borrower contesting the Holder’s right to collect the outstanding Principal Amount and/or interest thereon. All of such costs and expenses shall bear interest at the higher of the rate of interest provided herein (i.e., Default Interest Rate) from the date of payment by the Holder until repaid in full.

(d) Confession of Judgment. For the narrow reasons of Event of Default limited to and only arising out of Section 7(a), (d), (f), (g), (i), and (l) of the Loan Agreement (collectively, the “Stipulated Reasons for Judgment”), each of the Borrower and SCM Subsidiary authorizes, constitutes, and appoints Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx or agrees to appoint another attorney in Utah if Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx is not available, whose appointment will not be reasonably withheld by the Borrower or SCM Subidiary, as its lawful attorney-in-fact to appear for the Borrower and SCM Subsidiary, and to confess judgment against each of the Borrower and SCM Subsidiary in favor of the Holder for the all of its indebtedness which shall include: (i) the Principal Amount; (ii) all accrued interest from the Issuance Date at the Standard Interest Rate; (iii) all accrued interest from the Event of Default at the Default Interest Rate; (iv) plus any and all collection costs; and (v) reasonable attorney’s fees all without prior notice or opportunity of the Borrower or SCM Subsidiary for prior hearing, without stay of execution or right of appeal, and expressly waiving the benefit of all exemption laws, appeals, stay of execution or supplementary proceedings, or other relief from the enforcement or immediate enforcement of a judgment or related proceedings on a judgment, and any irregularity or error in entering any such judgment. No single exercise of the power to confess judgment granted in this Section shall exhaust the power, regardless of whether such exercise is ruled invalid, void, or voidable by any court. The power to confess judgment granted in this Section may be exercised from time to time by the Holder as warranted by and arising from the Stipulated Reasons for Judgment often as the Holder of this Note may elect.

9. Subsequent Holders. This Note is not transferrable, in whole or in part, by its holder, except with the written consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event that any holder of this Note transfers this Note for value, the Borrower agrees that except with respect to subsequent holders with actual knowledge of a claim or defense, no subsequent holder of this Note shall be subject to any claims or defenses which Borrower may have against a prior holder (which claims or defenses are not waived as to prior holders), all of which are waived as to the subsequent holder, and that all such subsequent holders shall have all of the rights of a holder in due course with respect to the Borrower even though the subsequent holder may not qualify, under applicable law, absent this paragraph, as a holder in due course.

10. Miscellaneous.

(a) Notices. Any notice, demand, request, waiver or other communication required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Note shall be made in compliance with the notice provisions set forth in the Loan Agreement.

(b) Governing Law and Venue. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to the choice of law principals thereof. The Parties hereto irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of Utah located in Salt Lake County and the United States District Court of Utah in any action arising out of or relating to this Note, and hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action may be heard and determined in such state or federal court. The Parties hereto irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The Parties further agree, to the extent permitted by law, that final and unappealable judgment against any of them in any action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment. To the extent any Party hereto has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Note.

(c) Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, SETOFF, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR PERTAINING OR RELATED TO OR INCIDENTAL TO ANY DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO OR CONTEMPLATED THEREBY OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY PARTY’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES THEREUNDER, IN ALL OF THE FOREGOING CASES WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. BORROWER AGREES THAT LENDER MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED AGREEMENT OF BORROWER IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE ITS RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY, AND THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY WHATSOEVER BETWEEN BORROWER AND LENDER SHALL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY. BORROWER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION MAY NOT BE ORALLY WAIVED AND CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF LENDER, INCLUDING LENDER’S COUNSEL, HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH, AND BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LENDER HAS, IN PART, BEEN INDUCED TO MAKE THE EXTENSION OF CREDIT EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE IN RELIANCE ON THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH.

(d) Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Note to be invalid or unenforceable as to either the Borrower or the Holder, such finding shall not render that provision invalid or unenforceable as to any other Persons. If feasible, any such offending provision shall be deemed to be modified to be within the limits of enforceability or validity; however, if the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be stricken and all other provisions of this Note in all other respects shall remain valid and enforceable.

(e) Waiver. Holder shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Note unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by the Holder. No delay or omission on the part of the Holder in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by the Holder of a provision of this Note shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of the Holder’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Note. No prior waiver by the Holder, nor any course of dealing between the Holder and the Borrower, shall constitute a waiver of any of the Holder’s rights or of any obligations of the Borrower as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of the Holder is required under this Note, the granting of such consent by the Holder in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent in subsequent instances where such consent is required, and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the Holder.

(f) Amendment. Neither this Note nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument signed by the Borrower and the Holder.

(g) Replacement Notes. This Note may be exchanged by Holder at any time and from time to time for a Note or Notes with different denominations representing an equal aggregate outstanding Principal Amount, as reasonably requested by Holder, upon surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for such registration or exchange. In the event that Holder notifies the Borrower that this Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a replacement Note identical in all respects to the original Note (except for registration number and Principal Amount, if different than that shown on the original Note), shall be issued to the Holder, provided that the Holder executes and delivers to the Borrower an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower to indemnify the Borrower from any loss incurred by it in connection with the Note.

(h) Cancellation. After all of the Principal Amount (including accrued but unpaid interest and default payments at any time owed on this Note) has been paid in full, this Note shall automatically be deemed canceled and the Holder shall promptly surrender the Note to the Borrower at the Borrower’s principal executive offices.

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS, PREFERENCES AND RIGHTS
OF
SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
OF
WHITE MOUNTAIN TITANIUM CORPORATION

Pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.1955

WHITE MOUNTAIN TITANIUM CORPORATION (the “Company”), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada, hereby certifies that pursuant to the provisions of NRS 78.1955, its Board of Directors adopted the following resolution, which resolution remains in full force and effect as of the date hereof:

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) is authorized, within the limitations and restrictions stated in the Articles of Incorporation of the Company (the “Articles of Incorporation”) , to fix by resolution or resolutions the designation of preferred stock and the powers, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such provisions as may be desired concerning voting, redemption, dividends, dissolution or the distribution of assets, conversion or exchange, and such other subjects or matters as may be fixed by resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors under the Nevada Revised Statutes; and

WHEREAS, the Articles of Incorporation of the Company authorizes one hundred million (100,000,000) shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”); and

WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Board of Directors of the Company, pursuant to its authority as aforesaid, to authorize and fix the terms of a series of Preferred Stock to be designated the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company and the number of shares constituting such series of Preferred Stock;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that there is hereby authorized the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on the terms and with the provisions herein set forth below:

1. Designation and Rank. The designation of such series of the Preferred Stock shall be the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). The maximum number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be Nineteen Million One Hundred (19,000,100) shares. The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank senior to the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and to all other classes and series of equity securities of the Company. The Series A Preferred Stock shall be subordinate to and rank junior to all indebtedness of the Company now or hereafter outstanding.

2. Dividends. Any dividends (whether or not in the form of cash) shall first be payable to the holders Series A Preferred Stock (treating each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock as being the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock would be converted if such shares were converted pursuant to the provisions of Section 5 hereof as of the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend).

3. Voting Rights.

(a) Except as otherwise required by the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Series A Preferred Stock shall vote or act together with the Common Stock as a single class on all actions to be taken by the stockholders of the Company. In connection with such actions, each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock could be converted pursuant to Section 5 hereof on the record date for the vote or written consent of stockholders. Fractional votes shall not, however, be permitted and any fractional voting rights resulting from the above formula (after aggregating all shares of Common Stock into which shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder could be converted) shall be rounded to the nearest whole number (with any fraction equal to or greater than one-half rounded upward to one). The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of any stockholders’ meeting in accordance with the Bylaws of the Company. The Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible shall, upon issuance, have all of the same voting rights as other issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company.

(b) Election of Directors and Appointments. Regardless of the size of the Board of Directors, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class, shall have the right to elect or appoint, remove and re-appoint from time to time one (1) director of the Company. In the event the Board of Directors has seven (7) or more directors and if the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock (i) obtain a legally binding offtake agreement with a third party for water arising from the Company’s desalination plant for its Cerro Xxxxxx Project which is for an offtake volume and price that is mutually satisfactory to the Company and the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) secure financing for phase one of the Company’s desalination project, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class, shall have the right to elect or appoint, remove and re-appoint from time to time two (2) directors of the Company at each shareholders’ meeting held for the purpose of electing directors. In addition, director(s) appointed by the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to appoint the non-executive Chairman of the Company to serve in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s Bylaws. Director(s) appointed by the holders of Series A Preferred Stock may only be removed by the holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock. The non-executive Chairman appointed by the director(s) appointed by the holders of Series A Preferred Stock may only be removed by the director(s) appointed by the holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock.

4. Liquidation Preference.

(a) Payment. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders, before any payment shall be made or any assets distributed to the holders of the Common Stock or any other class or series of Preferred Stock that is junior to the Series A Preferred Stock (“Junior Stock”), an amount (the “Liquidation Preference Amount”) per share of the Series A Preferred Stock equal to (i) $0.12 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like) plus (ii) any unpaid dividends to which the holders of Series A Preferred Stock are then entitled. If the assets of the Company are not sufficient to pay in full the Liquidation Preference Amount payable to the holders of outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and any other class of stock ranking pari passu, as to rights on liquidation, dissolution or winding up, with the Series A Preferred Stock, and that was created and issued in accordance with the provisions of this Certificate of Designation, then all of said assets will be distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and the other classes of stock ranking pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock, if any, ratably in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. The liquidation payment with respect to each outstanding fractional share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be equal to a ratably proportionate amount of the full liquidation payment with respect to each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock. All payments for which this Section 4(a) provides shall be in cash, property (valued at its fair market value as determined by an independent appraiser reasonably acceptable to the holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock) or a combination thereof; provided, however, that no cash shall be paid to holders of Junior Stock unless each holder of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock has been paid in cash the full Liquidation Preference Amount to which such holder is entitled as provided herein. After payment of the full Liquidation Preference Amount to which each holder is entitled, such holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock will not be entitled to any further participation as such in any distribution of the assets of the Company.

(b) Certain Events Deemed a Liquidation; Election as to Consideration. Upon the consent of the Board of Directors, a consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or corporations, or a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the effectuation by the Company of a transaction or series of related transactions in which, following such transaction(s), the holders of the outstanding voting power of the Company prior to the transaction(s) cease to hold, directly or indirectly, a majority of the outstanding voting power of the surviving entity, shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up within the meaning of this Section 4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, including Section 4(a), in the event of the occurrence of the transaction(s) in the foregoing sentence, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the option to receive (i) an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference Amount or (ii) the amount that such holder would have received if it had converted its Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock immediately prior to the closing of such transaction (without giving effect to the liquidation preference of, or any dividends payable on, any other capital stock of the Company).

(c) Notice. Written notice of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company within the meaning of this Section 4, stating a payment date and the place where the distributable amounts shall be payable, shall be given by mail, postage prepaid, no less than forty-five (45) days prior to the payment date stated therein, or twenty (20) days prior to the stockholder meeting to approve the relevant transaction, whichever is earlier, to the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock at their respective addresses as the same shall appear on the books of the Company.

(d) Surrender of Certificates. On the effective date of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up within the meaning of this Section 4, the Company shall pay cash and/or such other consideration to which the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled under this Section 4. Each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing such shares, duly assigned or endorsed for transfer to the Company (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers relating thereto), at the principal executive office of the Company or the offices of the transfer agent for the Company, or shall notify the Company or any transfer agent that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and shall execute an affidavit or agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection therewith (an “Affidavit of Loss”), whereupon each surrendered certificate shall be cancelled and retired.

5. Conversion. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the following conversion rights (the “Conversion Rights”):

(a) Right to Convert. At any time on or after the Issuance Date, the holder of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock may, at such holder’s option, elect to convert (a “Voluntary Conversion”) all or any portion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such person into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted shall convert into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) $0.12 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like) plus the amount of accrued but unpaid dividends, divided by (ii) the Conversion Price (as defined in Section 5(c) below) then in effect as of the date of the delivery by such holder of its notice of election to convert. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the Conversion Rights shall terminate at the close of business on the last full day preceding the date fixed for the payment of any such amounts distributable on such event to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock; provided, however, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be considered to be convertible for purposes of clause (ii) of the last sentence of Section 4(b). In the event of such a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Company shall provide to each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock notice of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, which notice shall be sent at least twenty (20) days prior to the termination of the Conversion Rights and (ii) state the amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock that will be paid or distributed on such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be.

(b) Mechanics of Voluntary Conversion. The Voluntary Conversion of Series A Preferred Stock shall be conducted in the following manner:

(i) Holder’s Delivery Requirements. To convert Series A Preferred Stock into full shares of Common Stock on any date (the “Voluntary Conversion Date”), the holder thereof shall (A) transmit by facsimile (or otherwise deliver to its Email of Notice ), for receipt on or prior to 5:00 p.m., Mountain time, on such date, a copy of a fully-executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Conversion Notice”), to the Company at (___) ___-____, Attention: Chief Executive Officer, and (B) surrender to a common carrier for delivery to the Company as soon as practicable following such Voluntary Conversion Date the original certificates representing the shares of Series A Preferred Stock being converted (or an Affidavit of Loss with respect to such shares in the case of their loss, theft or destruction) (the “Preferred Stock Certificates”) and the originally executed Conversion Notice.

(ii) Company’s Response. Upon receipt by the Company of a copy of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall promptly send, via facsimile (or otherwise deliver to its Email of Notice), a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to such holder. Upon receipt by the Company of a copy of the fully-executed Conversion Notice, the Company shall issue and deliver or cause its designated transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to issue and deliver, as applicable, within three (3) business days following the date of receipt by the Company of the fully-executed Conversion Notice (such third business day being the “Delivery Date”), to the holder a stock certificate representing the shares of Common Stock as specified in the Conversion Notice, registered in the name of the holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder shall be entitled. If the number of shares of Preferred Stock represented by the Preferred Stock Certificate(s) submitted for conversion is greater than the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock being converted, then the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) business days after receipt of the Preferred Stock Certificate(s) and at the Company’s expense, issue and deliver to the holder a new Preferred Stock Certificate representing the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock not converted.

(iii) Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the arithmetic calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to promptly issue to the holders the number of shares of Common Stock that is not disputed and shall submit the arithmetic calculations to the holders via facsimile (or otherwise deliver to its Email of Notice) as soon as possible, but in no event later than two (2) business days after receipt of such holder’s Conversion Notice. If such holder and the Company are unable to agree upon the arithmetic calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such conversion within one (1) business day of such disputed arithmetic calculation being submitted to the holder, then the Company shall within one (1) business day submit via facsimile (or otherwise deliver to its Email of Notice) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such conversion to an independent, outside accountant (other than the Company's accountant) of national standing nominated by the Company and approved by such holder. The Company shall cause the accountant to perform the calculations and to notify the Company and the holder of the results no later than seventy-two (72) hours from the time it receives the disputed calculations. Such accountant’s calculation shall be binding upon all parties absent manifest error. The reasonable expenses of such accountant in making such determination shall be paid by the Company, in the event the holder’s calculation was correct, or by the holder, in the event the Company’s calculation was correct, or equally by the Company and the holder in the event that neither the Company’s or the holder’s calculation was correct. The period of time in which the Company is required to effect conversions or redemptions under this Certificate of Designation shall be tolled with respect to the subject conversion or redemption pending resolution of any dispute by the Company made in good faith and in accordance with this Section 5(b)(iii).

(iv) Record Holder. The person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of the close of the stock register for the Common Stock on the Conversion Date.

(d) Adjustments of Conversion Price.

(i) Adjustments for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, effect a stock split of the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately decreased. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustments under this Section 5(d)(i) shall be effective at the close of business on the date the stock split or combination becomes effective.

(ii) Adjustments for Dividends and Distributions in Shares of Common Stock. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, then, and in each event, the Conversion Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

(1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and

(2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution;

provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and provided further, however, that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of Series A Preferred Stock simultaneously receive (i) a dividend or other distribution of shares of Common Stock in a number equal to the number of shares of Common Stock as they would have received if all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event or (ii) a dividend or other distribution of shares of Series A Preferred Stock which are convertible, as of the date of such event, into such number of shares of Common Stock as is equal to the number of additional shares of Common Stock being issued with respect to each share of Common Stock in such dividend or distribution.

(iii) Adjustment for Other Dividends and Distributions. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in assets (other than cash dividends payable out of earnings or surplus in the ordinary course of business) or equity or debt securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the applicable Conversion Price shall be made and provision shall be made (by adjustments of the Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversions thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereon, the amount of assets and/or the number of securities of the Company which they would have received had their Series A Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Conversion Date, retained such assets and/or securities (together with any distributions payable thereon during such period), giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 5(d)(iii) with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock; provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and provided further, however, that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of Series A Preferred Stock simultaneously receive a dividend or other distribution of assets and/or the number of securities that they would have received if all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such event.

(iv) Adjustments for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date shall be changed to the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by reclassification, exchange, substitution or otherwise (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends provided for in Sections 5(d)(i), (ii) and (iii), or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for in Section 5(d)(v)), then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the Conversion Price shall be made and provisions shall be made (by adjustments of the Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the holder of each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such share of Series A Preferred Stock into the kind and amount of shares of stock and/or other securities that such holder would have received had it converted the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by it into Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

(v) Adjustments for Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sales of Assets. Subject to Section 4 above, if at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date there shall be a capital reorganization of the Company (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends or distributions provided for in Section 5(d)(i), (ii) and (iii), or a reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares provided for in Section 5(d)(iv)), or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation or other entity, or the conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another corporation or other entity, immediately after such reorganization, merger, consolidation, or conveyance (an “Organic Change”), then as a part of such Organic Change an appropriate revision to the Conversion Price shall be made if necessary or appropriate and provision shall be made if necessary or appropriate (by adjustments of the Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the holder of each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such share of Series A Preferred Stock into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property of the Company or any successor corporation resulting from Organic Change. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 5(d)(v) with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock after the Organic Change to the end that the provisions of this Section 5(d)(v) (including any adjustment in the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares of stock or other securities deliverable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock) shall be applied after that event in as nearly an equivalent manner as may be practicable.

(vi) Adjustments for Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. In the event the Company shall issue or sell any additional shares of Common Stock (otherwise than as provided in the foregoing subsections (i) through (v) of this Section 5(d), pursuant to Common Stock Equivalents (hereafter defined) granted or issued prior to the Issuance Date, or in accordance with Section 5(d)(ix) below) (the “Additional Shares of Common Stock”), at a price per share less than the Conversion Price, or without consideration, the Conversion Price then in effect upon each such issuance shall be adjusted to that price (rounded to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Conversion Price by a fraction:

(1) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including, for purposes of such calculation, shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock) immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock plus (B) the number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) which the aggregate consideration for the total number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued would purchase at a price per share equal to the then Conversion Price, and

(2) the denominator of which shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including, for purposes of such calculation, shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock) immediately after the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock;

No adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock shall be made under Section 5(d)(vi) upon the issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock that are issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or other subscription or purchase rights or pursuant to the exercise of any conversion or exchange rights in any Common Stock Equivalents (as defined below), if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such warrants or other rights or upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents (or upon the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefore) pursuant to Section 5(d)(vii).

(vii) Issuance of Common Stock Equivalents. The provisions of this Section 5(d)(vii) shall apply if (a) the Company, at any time after the Issuance Date, shall issue any securities convertible into or exchangeable for, directly or indirectly, Common Stock (“Convertible Securities”), other than the Series A Preferred Stock, or (b) any rights, warrants or options to purchase any such Common Stock or Convertible Securities (collectively, the “Common Stock Equivalents”) shall be issued or sold. If the price per share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock may be issuable pursuant to any such Convertible Securities or Common Stock Equivalents shall be less than the applicable Conversion Price then in effect, or if, after any such issuance of Convertible Securities or Common Stock Equivalents, the price per share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock may be issuable thereafter is amended or adjusted, and such price as so amended shall be less than the applicable Conversion Price in effect at the time of such amendment or adjustment, then the applicable Conversion Price upon each issuance of Convertible Securities or Common Stock Equivalents or amendment thereof shall be adjusted as provided in subsection (vi) of this Section 5(d). No adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities or Common Stock Equivalents where an adjustment to the Conversion Price was previously made as a result of the issuance or purchase of any Convertible Securities or Common Stock Equivalents.

(viii) Consideration for Stock. In case any shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities, or any Common Stock Equivalents, shall be issued or sold:

(1) in connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving corporation (other than any consolidation or merger in which the previously outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be changed to or exchanged for the stock or other securities of another corporation and except as provided in Section 5(d)(ix) below), the amount of consideration therefore shall be deemed to be the fair value, as determined reasonably and in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company including the affirmative vote of at least one (1) Director elected or appointed by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, of such portion of the assets and business of the nonsurviving corporation as such Board may determine to be attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Convertible Securities or Common Stock Equivalents, as the case may be; or

(2) in the event of any consolidation or merger of the Company in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or in which the previously outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be changed into or exchanged for the stock or other securities of another corporation, or in the event of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company for stock or other securities of any corporation, the Company shall be deemed to have issued a number of shares of its Common Stock for stock or securities or other property of the other corporation computed on the basis of the actual exchange ratio on which the transaction was predicated, and for a consideration equal to the fair market value on the date of such transaction of all such stock or securities or other property of the other corporation. If any such calculation results in adjustment of the applicable Conversion Price, or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the determination of the applicable Conversion Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sale, shall be made after giving effect to such adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. In the event any consideration received by the Company for any securities consists of property other than cash, the fair market value thereof at the time of issuance or as otherwise applicable shall be as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company including the affirmative vote of at least one Director elected or appointed by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. In the event Common Stock is issued with other shares or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, the consideration computed as provided in this Section 5(d)(viii) shall be allocated among such securities and assets as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company including the affirmative vote of at least one Director elected or appointed by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock.

(ix) Certain Issuances Excepted. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to make any adjustment to the Conversion Price upon the authorization or issuance of (i) securities issued in connection with the acquisition of a Target Company (hereinafter defined) approved by the Board of Directors through merger, stock-for-stock exchange, or similar transaction with the Company and/or one of its subsidiaries and securities issued to retain the personnel of the Target Company; (ii) securities issued pursuant to the conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities issued or outstanding on or prior to the Issuance Date (so long as the conversion or exercise price in such securities are not amended to lower such price and/or adversely affect the holders); and (iii) securities issued or granted pursuant to the Company’s 2015 Stock Incentive Plan or any subsequent equity compensation plans approved by the Company’s Board of Directors or Compensation Committee, including at least one of the directors elected or appointed by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof. The term “Target Company” shall mean an entity which at the time of the acquisition was engaged in the mortgage brokerage or mortgage banking business.

(e) No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 5 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock against impairment. In the event a holder shall elect to convert any shares of Series A Preferred Stock as provided herein, the Company cannot refuse conversion based on any claim that such holder or anyone associated or affiliated with such holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless, and only for so long as, (i) an order from the Securities and Exchange Commission prohibiting such conversion or (ii) an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and/or adjoining conversion of all or of said shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have been issued and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of such holder in an amount equal to 120% of the Liquidation Preference Amount of the Series A Preferred Stock such holder has elected to convert, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such holder in the event it obtains judgment.

(f) Certificates as to Adjustments. Upon occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price or number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of such Series A Preferred Stock a certificate setting forth such adjustment and readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, and in any event with ten (10) days of such event. The Company shall, upon written request of the holder of such affected Series A Preferred Stock, at any time, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and readjustments, the Conversion Price in effect at the time, and the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of a share of such Series A Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver a certificate unless such certificate would reflect an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) of such adjusted amount.

(g) Issue Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all issue and other taxes, excluding federal, state or local income taxes, that may be payable in respect of any issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock on conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes resulting from any transfer requested by any holder in connection with any such conversion.

(h) Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally or by facsimile or deliver to its Email of Notice or three (3) business days following being mailed by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return-receipt requested, addressed to the holder of record at its address appearing on the books of the Company. The Company will give written notice to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (I) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (II) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock, or (III) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic Change, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up and in no event shall such notice be provided to such holder prior to such information being made known to the public. The Company will also give written notice to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which any Organic Change, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up will take place; provided, however, that in no event shall such notice be provided to such holder prior to such information being made known to the public.

(i) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall round the number of shares to be issued upon conversion up to the nearest whole number of shares.

(j) Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall, so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall promptly take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number as shall be sufficient for such purpose, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to its Articles of Incorporation. The initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for conversions of the Series A Preferred Stock and any increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock based on the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by each holder of record at the time of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be. In the event a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the number of reserved shares of Common Stock reserved for such transferor. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and which remain allocated to any person or entity that does not hold any shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be allocated to the remaining holders of Series A Preferred Stock, pro rata based on the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then held by such holder.

(k) Retirement of Series A Preferred Stock. Conversion of Series A Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been effected on the Conversion Date. Upon conversion of only a portion of the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock represented by a certificate surrendered for conversion, the Company shall issue and deliver to such holder at the expense of the Company, a new certificate covering the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock representing the unconverted portion of the certificate so surrendered as required by Section 5(b)(b)(ii).

(l) Regulatory Compliance. If any shares of Common Stock to be reserved for the purpose of conversion of Series A Preferred Stock require registration or listing with or approval of any governmental authority, stock exchange or other regulatory body under any federal or state law or regulation or otherwise before such shares may be validly issued or delivered upon conversion, the Company shall, at its sole cost and expense, use its best efforts to as expeditiously as possible, secure such registration, listing or approval, as the case may be.

6. Lost or Stolen Certificates. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Preferred Stock Certificates representing the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the holder to the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Preferred Stock Certificate(s), the Company shall execute and deliver new preferred stock certificate(s) of like tenor and date; provided, however, the Company shall not be obligated to reissue Preferred Stock Certificates if the holder contemporaneously requests the Company to convert such shares of Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock, in which case the Company shall issue the shares of Common Stock to the holder in accordance with the terms of this Certificate of Designation.

7. Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Certificate of Designation shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Certificate of Designation, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy and nothing herein shall limit a holder’s right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Certificate of Designation. 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 thereof 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 holders of the Series A Preferred Stock 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 holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

8. Specific Shall Not Limit General; Construction. No specific provision contained in this Certificate of Designation shall limit or modify any more general provision contained herein. This Certificate of Designation shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and all initial holder of the Series A Preferred Stock and shall not be construed against any person as the drafter hereof.

9. Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of a holder of Series A Preferred Stock in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

10. Company Breach. In the event of a breach by the Company of any provision of Section 2, Section 3, Section 4, or Section 5 herein (each, a “Company Breach”), in addition to any other remedies as provided in Section 7 herein the Company shall, promptly and in any event within two Business Days of the date the Company first becomes aware of such Company Breach, provide written notice of such Company Breach to each Holder, provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, holders holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock may waive a Company Breach and the provisions of this Section 10 with respect thereto.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, White Mountain Titanium Corporation has caused this Certificate of Preferred Stock Designation to be signed by its Chief Executive Officer and Secretary, respectively, on this 16^th day of March, 2016.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

Warrant No.: W-2016-00001
Number of Shares: 8,333,333
Date of Issuance: March 16, 2016 (the “Issuance Date”)

White Mountain Titanium Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Nexo WMTM Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to purchase Common Stock (including all Warrants to purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times on or after the date hereof, but not after 11:59 P.M., New York Time, on the Expiration Date (as defined below), Eight Million Three Hundred Thirty Three Thousand (8,333,333) fully paid nonassessable shares of Common Stock (as defined below) (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in Section 11. This Warrant is being issued pursuant to a $2,000,000 Loan Agreement, dated March 16, 2016, between the Company and the Holder.

1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

(a) Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant and (ii) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder; provided, however, that the Holder shall covenant in the Exercise Notice, that it will deliver the original Warrant to the Company within five (5) Business Days of such exercise. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. On or before the first Business Day following the date on which the Company has received each of the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price (the “Exercise Delivery Documents”), the Company shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the third Business Day following the date on which the Company has received all of the Exercise Delivery Documents (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice and Aggregate Exercise Price referred to in clause (ii)(A) above the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 4(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all taxes, including without limitation, all documentary stamp, transfer or similar taxes, or other incidental expense that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant.

(b) Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means US$0.30 per share, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

(c) Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with terms herein.

(d) No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall make a cash payment equal to the fair market value of such fractional share.

(e) Compliance with Securities Laws.

(i) The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the Common Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party; and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Common Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a violation of the Securities Act or any state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the Common Stock so purchased are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale.

(ii) This Warrant and all Common Stock issued upon exercise hereof unless registered under the Securities Act shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form (in addition to any legend required by state securities laws): THESE SECURITIES HAVE 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. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

2. ADJUSTMENTS. If, prior to the exercise of these Warrants, the Company shall have effected one or more stock split-ups, stock dividends or other increases or reductions of the number of shares of its Common Stock outstanding without receiving reasonable compensation therefor in money, services, or property, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Warrants shall, (i) if a net increase shall have been effected in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, be proportionately increased, and the cash consideration payable per share shall be proportionately reduced, and, (ii) if a net reduction shall have been effected in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, be proportionately reduced and the cash consideration payable per share be proportionately increased.

3. WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 3, the Company will provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.

4. REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.

(a) Transfer of Warrant. If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 4(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being transferred by the Holder and, if less then the total number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 4(d)) to the Holder representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares not being transferred.

(b) Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 4(d)) representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant.

(c) Warrant Exchangeable for Multiple Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 4(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, that no Warrants for fractional shares of Common Stock shall be given.

(d) Issuance of New Warrants. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to Section 4(a) or Section 4(c), the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) except for new warrants issued pursuant to section 4(a), shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, which is the same as the Issuance Date, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.

5. NOTICES.

6. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Warrant may be amended and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the holders of these Warrants representing at least a majority of the shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of these Warrants then outstanding; provided, however, that the Company may reduce the Exercise Price or extend the Expiration Date without the prior consent of the holders of these Warrants.

7. GOVERNING LAW; VENUE. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to the choice of law principals thereof. The Parties hereto irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of Utah located in Salt Lake County and the United States District Court of Utah in any action arising out of or relating to this Warrant, and hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action may be heard and determined in such state or federal court. The Parties hereto irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The Parties further agree, to the extent permitted by law, that final and unappealable judgment against any of them in any action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment. To the extent any Party hereto has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Warrant.

8. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, SETOFF, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR PERTAINING OR RELATED TO OR INCIDENTAL TO ANY DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO OR CONTEMPLATED THEREBY OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY PARTY’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES THEREUNDER, IN ALL OF THE FOREGOING CASES WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. BORROWER AGREES THAT LENDER MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED AGREEMENT OF BORROWER IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE ITS RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY, AND THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY WHATSOEVER BETWEEN BORROWER AND LENDER SHALL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY. BORROWER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION MAY NOT BE ORALLY WAIVED AND CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF LENDER, INCLUDING LENDER’S COUNSEL, HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH, AND BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LENDER HAS, IN PART, BEEN INDUCED TO MAKE THE EXTENSION OF CREDIT EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE IN RELIANCE ON THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH.

The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Holder to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the holder of this Warrant and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate.

Registration Rights Agreement

(See Attached)

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

This Registration Rights Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of March 16, 2016, by and between White Mountain Titanium Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and NEXO WMTM Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Shareholder”).

RECITALS:

WHEREAS, the Shareholder concurrently with the execution of this Agreement is acquiring shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Shares”) which are convertible into the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”); and

WHEREAS, as a condition to such acquisition, the parties are willing to enter into the agreements contained herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth below:

“Holder" or "Holders" means the holder or holders, as the case may be, from time to time of Registrable Securities. A holder of securities that are convertible into or exercisable for Registrable Securities shall be deemed to be a Holder of such Registrable Securities.

“Loan Agreement” means the Loan Agreement dated March 16, 2016, between the Company and the Shareholder.

“Person” means an individual, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization and government or any department or agency thereof.

“Registerable Securities” means (i) the Common Stock issued or issuable to the Shareholder upon conversion of the Series A Shares issued in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, and (ii) any securities issued or issuable with respect to the Common Stock referred to in clause (i) by way of replacement, share dividend, share split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other reorganization.

“SEC” means the Securities and Exchange Commission.

“Securities Act” means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

2. Demands for Registration

2.1 Demand Period. So long as Series A Shares are outstanding (the “Demand Period”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Shareholder will have in the one-time right, in addition to other rights enumerated in this Agreement, to request registration under the Securities Act of all or part of its Registerable Securities (a “Demand Registration”). The Holders of 50% or more of the Registerable Securities shall have the right to exercise the registration rights under this Section 2.

2.2 Demand Procedure.

2.2.1 Subject to Sections 2.2.2 and 2.2.4 below, during the Demand Period any Holder or combination of Holders (the “Demanding Shareholders”) owning 50% or more of the Registerable Securities may deliver to the Company a written request (a “Demand Registration Request”) that the Company register any or all such Demanding Shareholders’ Registerable Shares.

2.2.2 Holders, taken together, may only make one Demand Registration Request during the Demand Period. The Company shall only be required to file one registration statement (as distinguished from supplements or pre-effective or post-effective amendments thereto) in response to each Demand Registration Request.

2.2.3 A Demand Registration Request from Demanding Shareholders shall (i) set forth the number of Registerable Securities intended to be sold pursuant to the Demand Registration Request; (ii) disclose whether all or any portion of a distribution pursuant to such registration will be sought by means of an underwriting; and (iii) identify any managing underwriter or managing underwriters proposed for the underwritten portion, if any, of such registration.

2.2.4 The parties anticipate that the registration contemplated under this Section 2 will be accomplished by means of the filing of a Form S-1 or S-3, and that registration on such form will allow for different means of distribution, including sales by means of an underwriting as well as sales into the open market. If the Demanding Shareholders desire to distribute all or part of the Registerable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company in writing in their initial Demand Registration Request as described in Section 2.2.3 above. A determination of whether all or part of the distribution will be by means of an underwriting shall be made by Demanding Shareholders holding a majority of the Registerable Securities to be included in the registration. If all or part of the distribution is to be by means of an underwriting, all subsequent decisions concerning the underwriting which are to be made by the Demanding Shareholders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, which shall include the selection of the underwriter or underwriters to be engaged and the representative, if any, of the underwriters so engaged, shall be made by the Demanding Shareholders who hold a majority of the Registerable Securities to be included in the underwriting, subject to approval by the Board of Directors of the Company.

2.2.5 Upon the receipt by the Company of a Demand Registration Request in accordance with Section 2.2.4 hereof, the Company shall, within ten (10) days following receipt of such Demand Registration Request, give written notice of such request to all other Holders. The Company shall include in such notice information concerning whether all, part, or none of the distribution is expected to be made by means of an underwriting, and, if more than one means of distribution is contemplated, may require Holders to notify the Company of the means of distribution of their Registerable Securities to be included in the registration. If any Holder who is not a Demanding Shareholder desires to sell any Registerable Securities owned by such Holder, such Holder may elect to have all or any portion of its Registerable Securities included in the registration statement by notifying the Company in writing (a “Supplemental Demand Registration Request”) within twenty (20) days of receiving notice of the Demand Registration Request from the Company. The right of any Holder to include all or any portion of its Registerable Securities in an underwriting shall be conditioned upon the Company’s having received a timely written request for such inclusion by way of a Demand Registration Request or Supplemental Demand Registration Request (which right shall be further conditioned to the extent provided in this Agreement). Any Holder proposing to distribute his, her, or its Registerable Securities through an underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting.

2.2.6 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2, if an underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then the number of shares of Registerable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among the Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the respective amounts of Registerable Securities each Holder owns (or in such other proportion as they shall mutually agree). Registerable Securities excluded or withdrawn from the underwriting in accordance with this Section 2.2.7 shall be withdrawn from the registration.

2.3 Priority on Request Registration. The Company will not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registerable Securities without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the shares of Registerable Securities included in such registration. If a Demand Registration is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Registerable Securities and, if permitted hereunder, other securities requested to be included in such offering, exceeds the number of securities that can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Holders of a majority of the shares of Registerable Securities initially requesting registration, the Company will include in such registration prior to the inclusion of any securities which are not Registerable Securities the number of shares of Registerable Securities requested to be included that in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within such acceptable price range, pro rata among the respective Holders thereof on the basis of the number of shares of Registerable Securities owned by each such Holder.

3. Piggyback Registrations

3.1 Right to Piggyback. If the Company proposes to undertake an offering of shares of Common Stock for its account or for the account of other stockholders and the registration form to be used for such offering may be used for the registration of Registerable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), each such time the Company will give prompt written notice to all Holders of Registerable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration (each, a “Piggyback Notice”) and, subject to Sections 3.2 and 3.3 hereof, the Company will use its best efforts to cause to be included in such registration all Registerable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within twenty (20) days after the date of sending the Piggyback Notice.

3.2 Priority on Primary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number that can be sold in an orderly manner within a price range acceptable to the Company, the Company will include in such registration (a) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, and (b) second, the Registerable Securities requested to be included in such registration and any other securities requested to be included in such registration that are held by Persons other than the Holders of Registerable Securities pursuant to registration rights, pro rata among the holders of Registerable Securities and the holders of such other securities requesting such registration on the basis of the number of shares of such securities owned by each such holder.

3.3 Priority on Secondary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary registration on behalf of holders of the Company’s securities other than the Holders of Registerable Securities (the “Other Holders”), and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number that can be sold in a orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Other Holders requesting such registration, the Company will include in such registration (a) first, the securities requested to be included therein by the Other Holders requesting such registration, and (b) second, the Registerable Securities requested to be included in such registration hereunder, pro rata among the Holders of Registerable Securities requesting such registration on the basis of the number of shares of such securities owned by each such Holder.

3.4 Selection of Underwriters. In the case of an underwritten Piggyback Registration, the Company will have the right to select the investment banker(s) and managers(s) to administer the offering.

4. Registration Procedures

4.1 Registration. Whenever the Holders of Registerable Securities have requested that any Registerable Securities be sold pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registerable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company will as expeditiously as possible:

4.1.1 Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registerable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective.

4.1.2 Amendments and Supplements. Promptly prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for the period required by the intended method of disposition and the terms of this Agreement and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement.

4.1.3 Provisions for Copies. Promptly furnish to each seller of Registerable Securities the number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registerable Securities owned by such seller.

4.1.4 Blue Sky Laws. Use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registerable Securities under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any seller reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registerable Securities owned by such seller, provided, that the Company will not be required to (a) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 4.1.4; (b) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction; or (c) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction.

4.1.5 Anti-fraud Rules. Promptly notify each seller of such Registerable Securities when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and in such event, at the request of any such seller, the Company will promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registerable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided, that the Company will not take any action which causes the prospectus included in such registration statement to contain an untrue statement of material fact or omit any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except as permitted by Section 4.5.

4.1.6 Securities Exchange Listing. Use its reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registerable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class issued by the Company are then listed and use its reasonable best efforts to qualify such Registerable Securities for trading on each system on which securities of the same class issued by the Company are then qualified.

4.1.7 Underwriting Agreement. Enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting agreements in customary form) and take all such other actions as the holders of a majority of the shares of Registerable Securities being sold or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registerable Securities.

4.1.8 Due Diligence. Make available for inspection by any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement and any attorney, accountant, or other agent retained by any such underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such underwriter, attorney, accountant, or agent in connection with such registration statement.

4.1.9 Deemed Underwriters or Controlling Persons. Permit any Holder of Registerable Securities which Holder, in such Holder’s reasonable judgment, might be deemed to be an underwriter or a controlling person of the Company, to participate in the preparation of such registration or comparable statement and to require the insertion therein of material in form and substance satisfactory to such Holder and to the Company, and furnished to the Company in writing, which in the reasonable judgment of such Holder and its counsel should be included.

4.1.10 Management Availability. In connection with underwritten offerings, make available appropriate management personnel for participation in the preparation and drafting of such registration or comparable statement, for due diligence meetings and for “road show” meetings.

4.1.11 Stop Orders. Promptly notify Holders of the Registerable Securities of the threat of issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or the initiation of any proceeding for that purpose, and make every reasonable effort to prevent the entry of any order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement. In the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Registerable Securities included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order.

4.1.12 Opinions. At each closing of an underwritten offering, request opinions of counsel to the Company and updates thereof (which opinions and updates shall be reasonably satisfactory to the underwriters of the Registerable Securities being sold) addressed to the underwriters covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such Holders or their counsel.

4.2 Further Information. The Company may require each Holder of Registerable Securities to furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding the proposed distribution by such Holder of such Registerable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request.

4.3 Notice to Suspend Offers and Sales. Each Holder severally agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Sections 4.1.5 or 4.1.11 hereof, such Investor will forthwith discontinue disposition of shares of Common Stock pursuant to a registration hereunder until receipt of the copies of an appropriate supplement or amendment to the prospectus under Section 4.1.5 or until the withdrawal of such order under Section 4.1.11.

4.4 Reference to Holders. If any such registration or comparable statement refers to any Holder by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Company and if, in the Holder’s reasonable judgment, such Holder is or might be deemed to be a controlling person of the Company, such Holder shall have the right to require (a) the insertion therein of language in form and substance satisfactory to such Holder and the Company, and presented to the Company in writing, to the effect that the holding by such Holder of such securities is not to be construed as a recommendation by such Holder of the investment quality of the Company’s securities covered thereby and that such holding does not imply that such Holder will assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the Company, or (b) in the event that such reference to such Holder by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar Federal statute then in force, the deletion of the reference to such Holder, provided that with respect to this clause (b) such Holder shall furnish to the Company an opinion of counsel to such effect, which opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

4.5 Company’s Ability to Postpone. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall have the right twice in any twelve month period to postpone the filing of any registration statement under Sections 2 or 3 hereof or any amendment or supplement thereto for a reasonable period of time (all such postponements not exceeding ninety (90) days in the aggregate in any twelve month period) if the Company furnishes the Holders of Registerable Securities a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the President of the Company stating that, in its good faith judgment, the Company’s Board of Directors (or the executive committee thereof) has determined that effecting the registration at such time would materially and adversely affect a material financing, acquisition, disposition of assets or stock, merger or other comparable transaction, or would require the Company to make public disclosure of information the public disclosure of which would have a material adverse effect upon the Company.

5. Registration Expenses

5.1 Expense Borne by Company. Except as specifically otherwise provided in Section 5.2 hereof, the Company will be responsible for payment of all expenses incident to any registration hereunder, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, printing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, road show expenses, advertising expenses and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and all independent certified public accountants and other Persons retained by the Company in connection with such registration (all such expenses borne by the Company being herein called the “Registration Expenses”).

5.2 Expense Borne by Selling Security Holders. Each selling security holder will be individually responsible for payment of his, her, or its own legal fees (if the selling security holder retains legal counsel separate from that of the Company), underwriting fees and brokerage discounts, commissions and other sales expenses incident to any registration hereunder. Any other expenses to be borne by the selling security holders which are common to all of the selling security holders shall be divided among such security holders (including the Company and holders of the Company’s securities other than Registerable Securities, to the extent that securities are being registered on behalf of such Persons) pro rata on the basis of the number of shares being registered on behalf of each such security holder, or as such security holders may otherwise agree.

6. Indemnification Section

6.1 Indemnification by Company. The Company agrees to indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registerable Securities and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) such Holder against all loses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses in connection with defending against any such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities, or in connection with any investigation or inquiry, in each case caused by or based on any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arise out of any violation by the Company of any rules or regulations promulgated under the Securities Act applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with such registration, except insofar as the same are (i) contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein; (ii) caused by such Holder’s failure to deliver a copy of the registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto; or (iii) caused by such Holder’s failure to discontinue disposition of shares after receiving notice from the Company pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company will indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) such underwriters at least to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of Registerable Securities.

6.2 Indemnification by Holder. In connection with any registration statement in which a Holder of Registerable Securities is participating, each such Holder will furnish to the Company in writing such information as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, will indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) the Company against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; provided that the obligation to indemnify will be individual to each Holder and will be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registerable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. In connection with an underwritten offering, each such Holder will indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) such underwriters at least to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Company.

6.3 Assumption of Defense by Indemnifying Party. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (a) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (b) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim.

6.4 Binding Effect. The indemnification provided for under this Agreement will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, or controlling Person of such indemnified party and will survive the transfer of securities. The Company also agrees to make such provisions, as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party, for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason. Each Holder of Registerable Securities also agrees to make such provisions, as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party, for contribution to such party in the event such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

7. Participation in Underwritten Registrations

No Person may participate in any registration hereunder which is underwritten unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements, and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

8. Miscellaneous.

8.1 Amendments. No alteration of or amendment to this Agreement shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.

8.2 Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to the choice of law principals thereof. The Parties hereto irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of Utah located in Salt Lake County and the United States District Court of Utah in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action may be heard and determined in such state or federal court. The Parties hereto irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The Parties further agree, to the extent permitted by law, that final and unappealable judgment against any of them in any action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment. To the extent any party hereto has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement.

8.3 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, SETOFF, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR PERTAINING OR RELATED TO OR INCIDENTAL TO ANY DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO OR CONTEMPLATED THEREBY OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY PARTY’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES THEREUNDER, IN ALL OF THE FOREGOING CASES WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY AGREES THAT ANY OTHER PARTY MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED AGREEMENT OF EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE ITS RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY, AND THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY WHATSOEVER BETWEEN ANY OF THE PARTIES SHALL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY. EACH PARTY HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION MAY NOT BE ORALLY WAIVED AND CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF ANY OTHER PARTY, INCLUDING THAT PARTY’S COUNSEL, HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH, AND EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EACH OTHER PARTY HAS, IN PART, BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT IN RELIANCE ON THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH.
