This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements between the Parties with respect to its subject matter and constitutes (along with the documents referred to in this Agreement) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the Parties with respect to its subject matter.

Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or Law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. Unless otherwise expressly provided, the word “including” shall mean including without limitation. The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of such representation, warranty, or covenant. All words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require.
Section 11.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the Party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

Each of the Parties submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of Wyoming, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court. Each of the Parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Any Party may make service on any other Party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 11.3 above. Nothing in this Section 11.13, however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law or at equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law or at equity.

Section 1. Designation, Amount and Par Value.
The series of preferred stock shall be designated as the Series C 2% Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock"), and the number of shares so designated and authorized shall be Five (5). Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall have a par value of $0.00001 per share and a stated value of $100 per share (the "Stated Value").
Section 2. Dividends.
(a) Holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor, and the Company shall accrue, quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each year, commencing on the Issuance Date, cumulative dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock at the rate per share (as a percentage of the Stated Value per share) equal to two percent (2%) per annum on the Stated Value, payable in additional shares of Series C Preferred Stock. The party that holds the Series C Preferred Stock on an applicable record date for any dividend payment will be entitled to receive such dividend payment and any other accrued and unpaid dividends which accrued prior to such dividend payment date, without regard to any sale or disposition of such Series C Preferred Stock subsequent to the applicable record date but prior to the applicable dividend payment date.
(b) So long as any shares of Series C Preferred Stock remain outstanding, neither the Company nor any subsidiary thereof shall, without the consent of the Holders of eighty percent (80%) of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding (the "Requisite Holders), redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire directly or indirectly any Junior Securities (as defined in Section 7), nor shall the Company directly or indirectly pay or declare any dividend or make any distribution upon, nor shall any distribution be made in respect of, any Junior Securities, nor shall any monies be set aside for or applied to the purchase or redemption (through a sinking fund or otherwise) of any Junior Securities.
Section 3. Voting Rights; Negative Covenants.
Each holder of the Series C Preferred Stock shall have the right to vote on any matter that may from time to time be submitted to the Company's shareholders for a vote, on an as-converted basis, either by written consent or by proxy. So long as any shares of Series C Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company shall not and shall cause its subsidiaries not to, without the affirmative vote of the Requisite Holders, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series C Preferred Stock, (b) alter or amend this
Certificate of Designation, (c) amend its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other charter documents so as to affect adversely any rights of any Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, (d) increase the authorized or designated number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, (e) apart from shares issued as a dividend pursuant to Section 2 (a), issue any additional shares of Series C Preferred Stock (including the reissuance of any shares of Series C Preferred Stock converted for Common Stock) or (f) enter into any agreement with respect to the foregoing.
Section 4. Liquidation.
Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or a Sale (as defined below) (a "Liquidation"), the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company, whether such assets are capital or surplus, for each share of Series C Preferred Stock an amount equal to the Stated Value plus all accrued but unpaid dividends per share, whether declared or not, and all other amounts in respect thereof then due and payable prior to any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any Junior Securities, and if the assets of the Company shall be insufficient to pay in full such amounts, then the entire assets to be distributed to the holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be distributed among the holders of Series C Preferred Stock ratably in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. The Company shall mail written notice of any such Liquidation, not less than 45 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record Holder of Series C Preferred Stock. A "Sale" shall mean a sale of the majority of assets, a merger (other than where the Company is the surviving entity) or consolidation by the Company with another corporation or other entity.
Section 5. Conversion.
(a) Conversion at Option of Holder. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible into 1% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock (as determined at the earlier of (i) the date of Conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock; and (ii) eighteen (18) months following February 8, 2021) ("Conversion Ratio"), at the option of a Holder, at any time and from time to time, from and after the issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock, except that such conversion will automatically be adjusted so that the Holder’s total beneficial ownership does not exceed greater than 9.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock. A Holder shall affect a conversion by surrendering to the Company the original certificate or certificates representing the shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be converted to the Company, together with a completed form of conversion notice attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Conversion Notice"). Each Conversion Notice shall specify the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be converted, the date on which such conversion is to be affected, which date may not be prior to the date the Holder delivers such Conversion Notice (the "Conversion Date"). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Conversion Notice, the Conversion Date shall be the date that the Conversion Notice is delivered pursuant to this Section 5(a). Subject to Section 5(b) hereof, each Conversion Notice, once given, shall be irrevocable.
(b) The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of Series C Preferred Stock, as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual or contingent purchase rights of persons other than the holders of Series C Preferred Stock, not less than 100% of such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of sub-section (b) upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock hereunder. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and non-assessable.
(c ) Upon a conversion hereunder the Company shall not be required to issue stock certificates representing fractions of shares of Common Stock, but may if otherwise permitted and unless waived by the Holder of the Series C Preferred Stock, make a cash payment in respect of any final fraction of a share based on the Per Share Market Value at such time. If the Company elects not, or is unable, to make such a cash payment, the Holder of a share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the final fraction of a share, one whole share of Common Stock.
(d) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock on conversion of Series C Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to the Holders thereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of such shares of Series C Preferred Stock so converted and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
(e) Shares of Series C Preferred Stock converted into Common Stock shall be canceled and shall have the status of authorized but unissued shares of undesignated preferred stock.
