NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrower and Lender, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
ARTICLE I – LOAN

Upon the closing of a minimum of $1,500,000 in principal amount of Convertible Notes under the Note Offering, the Lender shall disburse the net proceeds thereof to Borrower as the Loan. Upon the closing of any additional amounts of Convertible Notes under the Note Offering, the Lender shall disburse the net proceeds thereof to Borrower as additional amounts of the Loan.

Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a Note in the face amount equal to the gross proceeds of each closing under the Note Offering with respect to which the net proceeds are disbursed to Borrower. The Loan shall bear interest at the rate or rates, and shall be due and payable on the date or dates, set forth in the Notes; provided, however, that upon the consummation of the Merger and the minimum offering amount under Lender’s private placement offering (the “PPO”), all indebtedness (including accrued interest) evidenced by the Notes shall be deemed canceled and paid in full.
1.3. Payments. Subject to the proviso in the preceding Section, Borrower shall repay the unpaid principal amount of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the Loan (the “Repayment Amount”) on the Due Date (as defined in the Notes) or as otherwise set forth in the Notes, as set forth below:
Borrower shall wire the Repayment Amount in same-day funds in accordance with the wire instructions set forth immediately below, which Repayment Amount shall be held in escrow pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement by and between Lender and Gottbetter & Partners, LLP, as escrow agent (the “Bridge Escrow Agent”), and disbursed in accordance therewith solely for repayment of the aggregate amounts due and payable to the Buyers (defined below) on the Convertible Notes.

Borrower represents and warrants to Lender as follows:
2.1. Organization.

This Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents, when executed and delivered by Borrower, shall constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and the enforcement of debtors’ obligations generally and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforcement is pursuant to a proceeding in equity or at law.
2.4. Absence of Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents is not in conflict with nor does it constitute a breach of any provision contained in Borrower’s organizational documents, nor will it constitute an event of default under any material agreement to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower is bound.
2.5. Consents and Approvals. Borrower has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all governmental authorities and agencies that are necessary for the continued operation of Borrower’s business as currently conducted, or are required by law.

Except as set forth in Schedule 2.6 or as contemplated by the Transactions, Borrower has no obligation to issue shares of its capital stock, or subscriptions, convertible securities, options, warrants, or other rights (contingent or otherwise) to purchase any shares of its capital stock or to distribute to holders of any of its equity securities, any evidence of indebtedness or asset. No shares of Borrower capital stock are subject to a right of withdrawal or a right of rescission under any applicable securities law.

Except as provided in Schedule 2.6, to the Knowledge of Borrower, there are no agreements among other parties, to which Borrower is not a party and by which it is not bound, with respect to the voting (including without limitation voting trusts or proxies) or sale or transfer (including without limitation agreements relating to rights of first refusal, co-sale rights or “drag-along” rights) of any securities of Borrower.
| 4 |
2.7. Litigation. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.7, there are no actions, suits, claims, investigations, arbitrations or other legal or administrative proceedings, to the Knowledge of Borrower, threatened against Borrower at law or in equity, and to Borrower’s Knowledge, there is no basis for any of the foregoing. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.7, there are no unsatisfied judgments, penalties or awards against or affecting Borrower or its businesses, properties or assets. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.7, Borrower is not in default, and no event has occurred which with the passage of time or giving of notice or both would constitute a default by Borrower with respect to any order, writ, injunction or decree known to or served upon Borrower of any court or of any foreign, federal, state, municipal or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.7, there is no action or suit by Borrower pending or threatened against others. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.7, Borrower has complied with all laws, rules, regulations and orders applicable to its current business, operations, properties, assets, products and services the violation of which would have a Company Material Adverse Effect. There is no existing law, rule, regulation or order, and Borrower has no Knowledge of any proposed law, rule, regulation or order, whether foreign, federal or state, that would prohibit or materially restrict Borrower from, or otherwise materially adversely affect Borrower in, conducting its businesses in any jurisdiction in which it is now conducting business.
As defined in this Agreement, “Knowledge” of Borrower means the actual knowledge by a director or officer of Borrower of a particular fact or circumstance or such knowledge as may reasonably be imputed to such person as a result of such person’s actual knowledge of other facts or circumstances as well as any other knowledge which such person would have possessed had such person made reasonable inquiry of appropriate employees and agents of Borrower with respect to the matter in question.
2.8. Absence of Certain Events. To Borrower’s Knowledge, there is no existing condition, event or series of events which reasonably would be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.
2.9. Title to Property and Assets. Borrower does not own any real property. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.9, Borrower has good and marketable title to all of its personal property and assets free and clear of any material restriction, mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, lien, security interest or other charge, claim or encumbrance which would have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.9, with respect to properties and assets it leases, Borrower is in material compliance with such leases and holds a valid leasehold interest free of any liens, claims or encumbrances which would have a Company Material Adverse Effect.
| 5 |

Borrower and its Subsidiaries hold all licenses, franchises, permits and other governmental authorizations which are required for the conduct of any aspect of their respective businesses, as presently conducted and as presently contemplated to be conducted, including, but not limited to, all such business operations contemplated by, or incident to, the Transactions. All such licenses, franchises, permits and other governmental authorizations are valid and current, and neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice that any governmental authority intends to cancel, terminate or not renew any such license, franchise, permit or other governmental authorization. Borrower and its Subsidiaries have conducted and are conducting its business in material compliance with the requirements, standards, criteria and conditions set forth in such licenses, franchises, permits and other governmental authorizations, and all laws and regulations applicable thereto, and are not in violation of any of the foregoing. The consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder will not alter or impair or require changes to any such license, franchise, permit or other governmental authorization.
