1. Company Notes. This Subordinated Indemnity Note (the
“Note”) is one of a series of Notes of like tenor
in the aggregate principal amount of $1,200,000 issued by the Company pursuant

Solutions, Inc., a California corporation. Capitalized terms used herein shall
have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Merger Agreement unless
otherwise defined herein.
2. Calculation of Interest. Interest hereunder shall be calculated on
the basis of a 365-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. Interest
shall be calculated on a simple interest basis and shall accrue
daily.
3. Payments. Interest shall accrue but not be paid until
Section 13 terminates in accordance with Section 13(n). Accrued but unpaid
interest shall be paid on the first Business Day of the fiscal quarter of the
Company commencing after the termination of Section 13 and shall thereafter be

September __, 2015 and (y) the date ninety (90) days after the Senior Debt has
been fully and finally paid and all lending and other credit commitments under
the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents have terminated (the “Maturity
Date”).
4. Prepayment. Any prepayments hereunder shall be applied
first, to the payment of any expenses then owed to the Holder, second, to
accrued interest on this Note and third, to the payment of the principal amount
outstanding under this Note. The Company shall have no right to make any
prepayment of all or any portion of this Note unless the Company makes a
simultaneous prepayment of the other Notes pari passu. The Note may be prepaid at any time without
penalty, provided that the Company will give the Holder not less than fifteen
(15) days advance written notice of prepayment.
5. Conversion.
(a)
Optional Conversion. Subject to the provisions hereof, at any
time following the twenty-first (21st) day after the Company has sent to its
stockholders an information statement under Regulation 14C of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to the action by written consent of holders of
a majority of the outstanding Buyer Common Stock to authorize the issuance of
Buyer Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and so long as (i) the
Buyer Common Stock is authorized for listing or quotation on a national
securities exchange, Nasdaq or the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board or the “pink
sheets,” and (ii) all or a portion of the principal amount of this Note remains
outstanding, either the Holder or the Company may at its election convert this
Note into the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares (the “Conversion Shares”) of Buyer Common Stock equal to the
aggregate outstanding principal amount due under this Note (plus accrued
interest) divided by the Conversion Price (as defined below), by notice of
conversion and surrender (or, in the case of a Company-elected conversion,
request for surrender) of this Note at the principal office of the Company, or
such other office or agency of the Company as it may reasonably designate by
written notice to the Holder, during normal business hours on any Business Day.
The “Conversion Price” shall, subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 6 below, mean (x) $3.50 (the “Initial Conversion Price”) if either the Company or the Holder elects
to convert this Note prior to the first anniversary of the date of issuance and
(y) if either the Company or the Holder elects to convert this Note after the
first anniversary of the date of issuance, the lesser of (A) the Initial
Conversion Price (as it may be adjusted in accordance with Section 6) and (B)
the volume weighted average trading price per share of Buyer Common Stock for
the twenty (20) trading days ending on the second trading date prior to the date
of the notice of conversion.
-2-
(b)
Stock Certificates. On the date on which the Holder shall have
satisfied in full the Holder’s obligations set forth herein regarding a
conversion of this Note, the Holder (or such other person or persons as directed
by the Holder, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws) shall be
treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such Conversion Shares as of
the close of business on such date. In the event of such conversion of this
Note, certificates for the whole number of shares of Buyer Common Stock
constituting the Conversion Shares shall be delivered to the Holder (or such
other person or persons as directed by the Holder, subject to compliance with
applicable securities laws) as promptly as is reasonably practicable (but not
later than five (5) days) after such conversion at the Company’s expense.
(c)
Reservation of Shares; Stock Fully Paid;
Listing. The Company shall
keep reserved a sufficient number of shares of the authorized and unissued
shares of Buyer Common Stock to provide for the conversion of this Note in
compliance with its terms. All Conversion Shares issued upon conversion of this
Note shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Conversion
Shares upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Buyer Common
Stock.
(d)
Restricted Securities. The Conversion Shares hereunder may not, at
the time of issuance, have been registered under any federal or state securities
laws, and may constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of federal
and state securities laws. By its receipt of Conversion Shares, if the shares
are not then the subject of an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act, the Holder will be deemed to acknowledge and confirm that it is
receiving such shares for its own account for investment, and not with a view to
the resale or distribution thereof in violation of any federal or state
securities laws.
6. Adjustments.
6.1 Adjustment Upon Extraordinary Common Stock
Event. Upon the happening
of an Extraordinary Common Stock Event (as hereinafter defined) prior to the
issuance of the Conversion Shares, the Initial Conversion Price shall,
simultaneously with the happening of such Extraordinary Common Stock Event, be
adjusted by multiplying such Initial Conversion Price by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such Extraordinary Common Stock Event and the
denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such Extraordinary Common Stock Event, and the
product so obtained shall thereafter be the Initial Conversion Price which, as
so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any
successive Extraordinary Common Stock Event or Events.
-3-
An “Extraordinary Common Stock
Event” shall mean (i) the
issue of additional shares of Buyer Common Stock as a dividend or other
distribution on outstanding shares of Buyer Common Stock, (ii) a subdivision of
outstanding shares of Buyer Common Stock into a greater number of shares of
Buyer Common Stock, or (iii) a combination or reverse stock split of outstanding
shares of Buyer Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Buyer Common
Stock.
6.2 Adjustment Upon Certain
Dividends. In the event
the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the
determination of holders of Buyer Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend
or other distribution with respect to the Buyer Common Stock payable in (i)
securities of the Company other than shares of Buyer Common Stock, or (ii) other
assets (excluding cash dividends or distributions), then the Company shall, not
less than thirty (30) days before the record date for such event, give the
Holder notice of such event.
6.3 Adjustment Upon Capital Reorganization or
Reclassification. If the
Buyer Common Stock shall be changed into the same or different number of shares
of any other class or classes of capital stock, whether by capital
reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than an
Extraordinary Common Stock Event provided for in Section 6.1, a dividend or
other distribution provided for in Section 6.2, or a merger or other transaction
provided for in Section 6.4), then and in each such event, the Holder shall have
the right thereafter to receive, upon conversion of this Note, in lieu of the
number of shares of Buyer Common Stock which the Holder would otherwise have
been entitled to receive, the kind and amount of shares of capital stock and
other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization,
recapitalization, reclassification or other change by the holders of the number
of shares of Buyer Common Stock for which this Note could have been converted
immediately prior to such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or
change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
6.4 Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization,
etc.
(a) In case of any consolidation or merger of
the Company with or into another Company or the sale of all or substantially all
of the assets of the Company to another Company, then this Note shall thereafter
be convertible for the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or
property to which a holder of the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock of the
Company deliverable upon conversion of this Note would have been entitled upon
such consolidation, merger or sale; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment
(as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) shall be made in the
application of the provisions in this Section 6 with respect to the rights and
interest thereafter of the Holder of this Note, to the end that the provisions
set forth in this Section 6 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as
reasonably possible, in relation to any shares of stock or other property
thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of this Note.
(b)
The provision for such rights with respect to the Subordinated Purchase Notes
shall be a condition precedent to the consummation by the Company of any such
transaction.
-4-
6.5 Certificate as to Adjustments; Notice by
Company. In each case of
an adjustment or readjustment of the Initial Conversion Price, the Company at
its expense will, within five (5) days of such adjustment or readjustment,
furnish the Holder with a certificate prepared by the Treasurer or Chief
Financial Officer of the Company, showing such adjustment or readjustment, and
stating in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.
6.6 Further Adjustments. In the event that, as a result of an
adjustment made pursuant to this Section 6, the Holder shall become entitled to
receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Buyer
Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon conversion of
this Note shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a
manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with
respect to the Conversion Shares contained in this Note.
7. Transfer Taxes. The Company will pay any documentary stamp
taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Conversion Shares issuable upon
the conversion of this Note; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates for Conversion Shares
in a name other than that of the registered holder of this Note in respect of
which such shares are issued, and in such case, the Company shall not be
required to issue or deliver any certificate for Conversion Shares until the
person requesting the same has paid to the Company the amount of such tax or has
established to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that such tax has been
paid.
8. Events of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an
“Event of Default” hereunder:
(a)
The Company shall fail to pay the principal amount of this Note and accrued
interest thereon when due and payable (whether at the Maturity Date, upon
acceleration or otherwise);
(b)
The Company shall sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or any
substantial portion of its assets in one transaction or a series of related
transactions, participate in any share exchange, consummate any
recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or other business combination
transaction or adopt a plan of liquidation or dissolution or agree to do any of
the foregoing;
(c) An
event of default has occurred and is continuing for sixty (60) days or more
without being cured with respect to any Senior Debt or the Senior Debt has been
accelerated and is due and owing to the Senior Creditor; or
-5-
(d)
The Company shall have applied for or consented to the appointment of a
custodian, receiver, trustee or liquidator, or other court-appointed fiduciary
of all or a substantial part of its properties; or a custodian, receiver,
trustee or liquidator or other court appointed fiduciary shall have been
appointed with or without the consent of the Company; or the Company is
generally not paying its debts as they become due by means of available assets,
or has made a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or the Company
files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, or a petition or an answer seeking
reorganization or an arrangement with creditors or seeking to take advantage of
any insolvency law, or an answer admitting the material allegations of a
petition in any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding or has taken
action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing; or if, within thirty
(30) days after the commencement of any proceeding against the Company seeking
any reorganization, rehabilitation, arrangement, composition, readjustment,
liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the Federal bankruptcy code or
similar order under future similar legislation, the appointment of any trustee,
receiver, custodian, liquidator, or other court-appointed fiduciary of the
Company or of all or any substantial part of its properties, such order or
appointment shall not have been vacated or stayed on appeal or otherwise or if,
within thirty (30) days after the expiration of any such stay, such order or
appointment shall not have been vacated (collectively, “Insolvency Events”).
Upon
the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Holder may, at its option, declare
all amounts due hereunder to be due and payable immediately and, upon any such
declaration, the same shall, subject to Section 13 herein below, become and be
immediately due and payable. If an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the
Company, then all amounts due hereunder shall become immediately due and payable
without any declaration or other act on the part of the Holder. If an Event of
Default occurs, the Company shall pay to the Holder the reasonable attorneys’
fees and disbursements and all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by
the Holder in order to collect amounts due and owing under this Note or
otherwise to enforce the Holder’s rights and remedies hereunder.
9. Right of Off-Set. Subject to the limitations set forth in
Article 8 of the Merger Agreement, the Company may set off Damage claims against
the Note. Any Damage claims will be set off pro rata against all other Notes of
like tenor.
10. Waiver of Presentment, Demand and
Dishonor. The Company
hereby waives presentment for payment, protest, demand, notice of protest,
notice of non-payment and diligence with respect to this Note, and waives and
renounces all rights to the benefit of any statute of limitations or any
moratorium, appraisement, exemption or homestead now provided or that hereafter
may be provided by any federal or applicable state statute, including but not
limited to exemptions provided by or allowed under the Federal Bankruptcy Code,
both as to itself and as to all of its property, whether real or personal,
against the enforcement and collection of the obligations evidenced by this Note
and any and all extensions, renewals and modifications hereof.
-6-
No failure on the part of the Holder
hereof to exercise any right or remedy hereunder with respect to the Company,
whether before or after the happening of an Event of Default, shall constitute a
waiver of any future Event of Default or of any other Event of Default. No
failure to accelerate the debt of the Company evidenced hereby by reason of an
Event of Default or indulgence granted from time to time shall be construed to
be a waiver of the right to insist upon prompt payment thereafter; or shall be
deemed to be a novation of this Note or a reinstatement of such debt evidenced
hereby or a waiver of such right of acceleration or any other right, or be
construed so as to preclude the exercise of any right the Holder may have,
whether by the laws of the state governing this Note, by agreement or otherwise;
and the Company hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of
law or equity that would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the
foregoing.
11. Amendment; Waiver. The terms of this Note may not be amended
unless all Subordinated Purchase Notes are identically amended. The Holder may
waive any of its rights under this Agreement, and no such waiver or consent on
any one instance shall be construed to be a continuing waiver or a waiver in any
other instance unless it expressly so provides.
12. Transfers. The Holder shall have the right to transfer
this Note or any interest herein in any transaction meeting the requirements of
applicable securities laws.
13. Subordination. Notwithstanding anything contained in this

Debt, rendering to the Holder any surplus to which the Holder is then
entitled.
-9-
(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 13(g) herein above,
the Holder shall be entitled to receive and retain any securities of the Company
or any other corporation or other entity provided for by a plan of
reorganization or readjustment (i) the payment of which securities is
subordinate, at least to the extent provided in this Section 13 with respect to
Subordinated Debt, to the payment of all Senior Debt under any such plan of
reorganization or readjustment and (ii) all other terms of which are reasonably
acceptable to the Senior Creditor.
(i) At any such meeting of creditors or in the event of any such Insolvency
Proceeding, the Holder shall retain the right to vote and otherwise act with
respect to the Subordinated Debt (including, without limitation, the right to
vote to accept or reject any plan of partial or complete liquidation,
reorganization, arrangement, composition or extension), provided that the Holder shall not vote with respect
to any such plan or take any other action in any way so as to contest (i) the
validity of any Senior Debt or any collateral therefor or guaranties thereof,
(ii) the relative rights and duties of any holders of any Senior Debt
established in any instruments or agreements creating or evidencing any of the
Senior Debt with respect to any of such collateral or guaranties, or (iii) the
Holder's obligations and agreements set forth in this Section 13.
(j) The Holder agrees, with respect to the Senior Debt and any and all
collateral therefor or guaranties thereof, that the Company and the Senior
Creditor may agree to increase the amount of the Senior Debt or otherwise modify
the terms of any of the Senior Debt, and the Senior Creditor may grant
extensions of the time of payment or performance to and make compromises,
including releases of collateral or guaranties, and settlements with the Company
and all other persons, in each case without the consent of the Holder or the
Company and without affecting the agreements of the Holder or the Company
contained in this Section 13; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section
13(j) shall constitute a waiver of the right of the Company itself to agree or
consent to a settlement or compromise of a claim which the Senior Creditor may
have against the Company.
(k) The Holder will not, at any time while the provisions of this Section 13
are in effect, modify any of the terms of any of the Subordinated Debt or any of
the Subordinated Documents nor will the Holder sell, transfer, pledge, assign,
hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Subordinated Debt to any
person.
-10-
(l) Nothing contained in this Section 13 shall impair, as between the Company
and the Holder, the obligation of the Company to pay to the Holder all amounts
payable in respect of the Subordinated Debt as and when the same shall become
due and payable in accordance with the terms thereof, or prevent the Holder
(except as expressly otherwise provided in Section 13(d) or Section 13(g)) from
exercising all rights, powers and remedies otherwise permitted by the
Subordinated Documents and by applicable law upon a default in the payment of
the Subordinated Debt or under any Subordinated Document, all, however, subject
to the rights of the Senior Creditor as set forth in this Section 13.
(m) The provisions of this Section 13 shall continue in full force and
effect, and the obligations and agreements of the Holder and the Company
hereunder shall continue to be fully operative, until the Payment In Full of all
of the Senior Debt and such full payment and satisfaction shall be final and not
avoidable. To the extent that the Company or any guarantor of or provider of
collateral for the Senior Debt makes any payment on the Senior Debt that is
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or set aside
or is required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any
bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization act, state or federal law, common law
or equitable cause (such payment being hereinafter referred to as a
“Voided Payment”), then to the extent of such Voided Payment,
that portion of the Senior Debt that had been previously satisfied by such
Voided Payment shall be revived and continue in full force and effect as if such
Voided Payment had never been made. In the event that a Voided Payment is
recovered from the Senior Creditor, an Event of Default (under and as defined in
the Loan Agreement) shall be deemed to have existed and to be continuing under
the Loan Agreement from the date of the Senior Creditor’s initial receipt of
such Voided Payment until the full amount of such Voided Payment is restored to
the Senior Creditor. During any continuance of any such Event of Default, the
provisions of this Section 13 shall be in full force and effect with respect to
the Subordinated Debt. To the extent that the Holder has received any payments
with respect to the Subordinated Debt subsequent to the date of the Senior
Creditor’s initial receipt of such Voided Payment and such payments have not
been invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or set aside or are
required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other party under any
bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, the Holder
shall be obligated and hereby agrees that any such payment so made or received
shall be deemed to have been received in trust for the benefit of the Senior
Creditor, and the Holder hereby agrees to pay to the Senior Creditor, upon
demand, the full amount so received by the Holder during such period of time to
the extent necessary fully to restore to the Senior Creditor the amount of such
Voided Payment. Upon the Payment In Full of all of the Senior Debt, which
payment shall be final and not avoidable, the provisions of this Section 13 will
automatically terminate without any additional action by any party
hereto.
14. Governing Law; Dispute
Resolution. This Note
shall be binding upon the Company and its successors, assigns and legal
representatives. The validity, construction and interpretation of this Note will
be governed, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of
California. Any Dispute arising out of this Note by and between the Holder and
the Company, shall be resolved in accordance with Section 9.6 (Arbitration) of
the Merger Agreement.
