AGREEMENT
In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale of Notes.
(a) Sale and Issuance of Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each initial Purchaser agrees to purchase on the Effective Date (the “Closing”) and the Company agrees to sell and issue to each such Purchaser, a Note in the principal amount specified with respect to such Purchaser on Exhibit A to this Agreement. The purchase price of each Note shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Note, and shall be payable in cash. The Company’s agreements with each of the Purchasers are separate agreements, and the sales of the Notes to each of the Purchasers are separate sales.
(b) Initial Closing. The initial purchase and sale of the Notes shall take place on the Effective Date, or at such other time and place as the Company and the Purchasers mutually agree upon, orally or in writing (which time and place are designated as the “Initial Closing”).
(c) Subsequent Sales of Notes. At any time on or before the fifteenth day following the Initial Closing, the Company may sell Notes representing up to the balance of the Note Maximum (the “Additional Purchasers”). All such sales made at any additional closings (each an “Additional Closing”) shall be made on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and (i) the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 2 hereof shall speak as of the Closing and the Company shall have no obligation to update any disclosure related thereto, and (ii) the representations and warranties of the Additional Purchasers in Section 3 hereof shall speak as of such Additional Closing. This Agreement, including without limitation, Exhibit A, may be amended by the Company without the consent of Purchasers to include any Additional Purchasers upon the execution by such Additional Purchasers of a counterpart signature page hereto. Any Notes sold pursuant to this Section 1(c) shall be deemed to be “Notes,” for all purposes under this Agreement and any Additional Purchasers thereof shall be deemed to be “Purchasers” for all purposes under this Agreement.
(d) Delivery. At each Closing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser the Note to be purchased by such Purchaser against payment of the purchase price therefor by check or by wire transfer to the Company’s bank account. In the event there is more than one closing, the term “Closing” shall apply to each such closing unless otherwise specified herein.
(e) Use of Proceeds. The cash proceeds raised by the Company from the issuance of the Unsecured Notes may be used to pay transaction expenses incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, to fund research and development, equipment expenditures, salaries and general working capital, and for other corporate purposes, all as may be approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to each Purchaser that:
(a) Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted.
(b) Authorization. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its officers and directors necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the Notes and the performance of all obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the Notes has been taken or will be taken prior to the Initial Closing.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:
(a) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Securities to be acquired by the Purchaser will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring any of the Securities.
(b) Knowledge; Review of Disclosure Document. The Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the securities. Purchaser has read, analyzed, and is familiar with the Disclosure Document (as defined below). For purposes hereof, “Disclosure Document” shall initially mean that Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2012 attached hereto as Exhibit C; provided, however, with respect to the sale of Notes after the Initial Closing, the Company may update the Disclosure Document with a revised draft or other disclosure documentation as it deems necessary or appropriate and provide the same to the Additional Purchasers who shall acknowledge such receipt.
(c) Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein. The Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must hold the Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Securities for resale. The Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.
(d) No Public Market. The Purchaser understands that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Securities.

(e) Legends. The Purchaser understands that the Securities, and any securities issued in respect thereof or exchange therefor, may bear the following, or a similar, legend
