NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

| 1. | The Debt Exchange. |
(a) Issuance of Exchange Shares; Cancellation of Indebtedness. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Debt Exchange Agreement, at the Closing (as defined below), the Company shall issue the Exchange Shares to the Noteholder in exchange for the cancellation of all indebtedness of the Company owed to the Noteholder as evidenced by the Convertible Note, and for no additional consideration (the “Debt Exchange”).
(b) General Release. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Debt Exchange Agreement, at the Closing (as defined below), the Noteholder hereby releases, waives, discharges and relinquishes any and all rights, claims, demands, contentions and causes of action of every kind, nature, character and description whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, apparent or concealed, fixed or contingent, arising from the Convertible Note, the Securities Purchase Agreement, and the Security Agreement (collectively, the “Debt Documents”) on or before the Closing Date, which it now has or hereafter may be entitled to claim against the Company, its directors, officers, managers, members, agents, attorneys, and employees (the “Released Parties”), including but without limiting the generality of foregoing, all claims arising from or in connection with or otherwise resulting from any matter, event, state of facts, claim, contention or cause whatsoever, occurring or existing in connection with or relating to the Debt Documents on or before the Closing Date (collectively, the “Claims”). The Noteholder agrees that the waiver and release described in this Section 1(b) applies to all Claims, whether or not the Noteholder currently knows about them or suspects that they exist. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary expressed or implied herein, however, none of the foregoing released Claims shall include any claims against a Released Party arising by reason of such Released Party’s breach of this Debt Exchange Agreement.

In this regard, the Company covenants to use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to issue certificates representing shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion of the Exchange Shares (the “Conversion Shares”) without any restricted legend, and, if required by the transfer agent, to obtain an opinion of counsel addressed to the transfer agent to that effect.
