FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR”
AS DEFINED IN RULE 50I(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer
or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor”

under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledge or secure Securities to the pledgees or secured parties.
Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledge;
secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. At such Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver
such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or
transfer of the Securities.

requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission).
The Company agrees that following such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than
ten (10) Business Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing
Underlying Shares issued with a restrictive legend (such tenth Business Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), together
with all representation letters, certificates and legal opinions required by the Transfer Agent, deliver or cause to be delivered
to such Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends (however, the Corporation

on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.
(d) Resale
Requirements. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees with the Company that such Purchaser
will sell the Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus
delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a registration statement, they will
be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend
from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this
understanding.
(e) Remedies.
Commencing after the occurrence of a Going Public Event, in addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company
shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Conversion Shares or
Warrant Shares delivered for removal of the restrictive legend and Conversion Shares delivered for conversion into Shares, $10
per Trading Day for each Trading Day following the Legend Removal Date or the date such Securities are to be delivered pursuant
to the Note until such Common Stock certificate is delivered without a legend pursuant to Section 4.1(c) or such Conversion Shares.
Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to elect in lieu of the aforedescribed liquidated damages to pursue actual damages
for the Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing any Underlying Shares as required by the Transaction Documents,
and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation,
a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
(f) Injunction
In the event a Purchaser shall request delivery of Securities as described in this Section 4.1 or Common Stock pursuant to the
Note and the Company is required to deliver such Securities, the Company may not refuse to deliver Securities based on any claim
that such Purchaser or anyone associated or affiliated with such Purchaser has not complied with Purchaser’s obligations under
the Transaction Documents, or for any other reason, unless, an injunction or temporary restraining order from a court, on notice,
restraining and or enjoining delivery of such unlegended shares shall have been sought and obtained by the Company and the Company
has posted a surety bond for the benefit of such Purchaser in the amount of 120% of the amount of the aggregate purchase price
of the Securities intended to be subject to the injunction or temporary restraining order, which bond shall remain in effect until
the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Purchaser to the extent
Purchaser obtains judgment in Purchaser’s favor.
(g) Buy-In.
In addition to any other rights available to Purchaser, if the Company fails to deliver to a Purchaser Securities as required pursuant
to this Agreement or the Note and after the Legend Removal Date or required delivery date pursuant to the Note the Purchaser, or
a broker on the Purchaser’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in
satisfaction of a sale by such Purchaser of the shares of Common Stock which the Purchaser was entitled to receive in unlegended
form from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall promptly pay in cash to the Purchaser (in addition
to any remedies available to or elected by the Purchaser) the amount, if any, by which (A) the Purchaser’s total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate purchase price
of the shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as unlegended Shares or as are required to be delivered pursuant
to the Note, as the case may be, together with interest thereon at a rate of :5% per annum accruing until such amount and any accrued
interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if a Purchaser
purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of S11,000 to cover a Buy-In With respect to S10,000 of purchase
price of Shares delivered to the Company for reissuance as unlegended shares, the Company shall be required to pay the Purchaser
31,000, plus interest, if any. The Purchaser shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Purchaser
in respect of the Buy-in.
4.2 Acknowledgment
of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges
that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, includi 112, without limitation, its obligation to issue the Underlying
Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off,
counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or ally claim the Company may have against

the Company.

a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft
or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable costs
(including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.
5.15 Remedies.
In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of
the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that
monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the
Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation
the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
5.16 Payment
Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document
or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or
exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential;
set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a
trustee; receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation;
any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration
the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as
if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
5.17 Usury.
To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim;
and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now
or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by any Purchaser in
order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in
any’ Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents
for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum
Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of
them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the Transaction
Documents exceed such Maximum Rate, It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to
the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any Official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof,
the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from
the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever,
interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any Purchaser with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction
Documents, such excess shall be applied by such Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded
to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at such Purchaser’s election.
5.18 Independent
Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several
and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performances
or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any
other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the
Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers
are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the
rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser
to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate
legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with
the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do
so by any of the Purchasers. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each
other Transaction Document is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers collectively
and not between and among the Purchasers.
5.19 Saturdays.
Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or
granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding
Business Day.
5.20 Construction.
The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel Have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the
Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved
against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments
thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall
be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar
transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement.
5.21 WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES
EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY
AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
5.22 Equitable
Adjustment. Trading volume amounts, price/volume amounts and similar figures in the Transaction Documents shall be equitably
adjusted (but without duplication) to offset the effect of stock splits, similar events and as otherwise described in this Agreement
and Warrants.
