follows:
(a)
the
following language shall be added to the end of Section
7(a):
The
restrictions set forth in this Section 7(a) shall terminate if the
Company issues any securities in a financing transaction for the
purpose of raising capital during any time that any New Stock is
outstanding.
(b)
the
following language shall be added to the end of Section
7:
“In
addition to the obligations set forth herein, beginning on October

the Restricted Period, no shares of New Stock may be sold by a Note
Holder at a sales price of less than $7.00 per share of New Stock.

Note Holder’s Percentage (the "Allotted Shares") may be sold

Trading Day, then the Note Holder may sell the 10,000 shares over
the six (6) consecutive trading day period beginning on the
Baseline Trading Day and continuing for the following five
