FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company hereby promises to pay to the order of Moneta Ventures Fund I, L.P., or its registered assigns or successors-in-interest (the “Holder”), (a) principal and interest hereunder pursuant to the payment schedule set forth in Section 1(a), and (b) all remaining principal and accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of and including the Maturity Date, if any, on the Maturity Date, in accordance with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding the 6% interest rate applicable to this Note from the original date of issuance, March 10, 2017 (the “Issuance Date”), until January 1, 2018, interest on the remaining unpaid principal balance as of and following January 1, 2018 shall accrue at the rate of 10% per annum until the Outstanding Balance is paid in full. Interest on this Note shall accrue daily commencing on the Issuance Date and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and actual days elapsed and shall be payable in accordance with Section 1 hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Note shall bear interest on the due and unpaid Outstanding Balance from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3(a), at the rate (the “Default Rate”) equal to the lower of ten percent (10%) per annum or the highest rate permitted by law. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to any unpaid collection costs, then to unpaid interest and fees and any remaining amount to principal.”
2. | Amendment to Sections 1(a) and 1(b) of Moneta Note. Sections 1(a) and 1(b) of the Moneta Note are hereby deleted in their entirety and replaced with the following: |
“(a) Payment Schedule. The Company shall make payments with respect to the Principal Amount and interest on this Note according to the schedule set forth below:
Payment Date | Payment Amount |

3. | Waiver of Resale Restrictions. Notwithstanding the provisions and restrictions of Section 1.1(a)(i) of the Purchase
Agreement, which limit the number of Moneta Shares that Moneta may transfer or resell in any calendar month to 10% of the aggregate
number of the Moneta Shares issued, such restrictions are hereby waived by the Company and shall not apply to the Moneta Shares,
and Moneta may sell any of the Moneta Shares at any time the Company’s common stock is listed for trading with The Nasdaq
Stock Market LLC; provided that such sale or transfer shall not be without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption
therefrom, as the Moneta Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), or under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed
of unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under the applicable securities laws of such states, or
unless exemptions from such registration requirements are available. |

Agreement, all of the terms and provisions of the Moneta Note and Purchase Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. All
references in the Moneta Note and Purchase Agreement shall hereafter refer to the Moneta Note and Purchase Agreement, as applicable,
as amended hereby. |
6. | Counterparts; Electronic Transmission. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.
