Subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at each Closing (as defined below), the Company agrees to issue and sell to each of the Investors, and each of the Investors severally agrees to purchase, a Note in the principal amount set forth opposite such Investor’s name on the Schedule of Investors. The securities into which the Notes are convertible are referred to herein as the “Note Conversion Shares.” The obligations of the Investors to purchase Notes are several and not joint. The aggregate principal amount of all Notes that may be issued and sold hereunder shall not exceed $1,000,000 (the “Total Note Principal Amount”). The Company shall issue 20,000 shares of common stock of the Company for each $100,000 invested by an Investor, provided, however, that if an Investor invests a sum of funds which does not round to $100,000, the Company shall issue to such Investor Shares on a pro rata basis, based on an issuance of 20,000 Shares for each $100,000 invested.

1.2. Place and Date of Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the purchase, sale and issuance of the Notes and Shares shall take place at one (1) or more closings (each, a “Closing”).

(b) Additional Closings. The Company may sell and issue at one (1) or more additional Closings (each, an “Additional Closing”), at such times and places as determined by the Company, in its sole discretion (each, an “Additional Closing Date”), up to the balance of the unissued Notes and Shares (the “Remaining Amount”). The Company may conduct such Additional Closings until the date that is sixty (60) days following the Initial Closing (the end of such period, the “Final Closing Date”). After each Additional Closing, the Company shall update the Schedule of Investors to list any Other Investors purchasing Notes and Shares hereunder.

(c) General. For the avoidance of doubt, each of the Initial Closing and each Additional Closing is referred to herein as a “Closing.” Each of the Initial Closing Date and each Additional Closing Date is referred to herein as a “Closing Date.” At each Closing, the Company will deliver to each Investor the Note to be purchased by such Investor, against receipt by the Company of the corresponding principal amount funded by such. Each of the Notes and the Shares will be registered in such Investor’s name in the Company’s records.

1.4. Definitions.

(a) “Transaction Documents” shall mean this Agreement, the Notes and the Shares.

1.5. Use of Proceeds.

SECTION 3

Representations and Warranties of the Investors

Each Investor hereby represents and warrants, severally and not jointly, and only with respect to itself, to the Company with respect to the purchase of the Securities, as follows:

3.1. No Registration. Such Investor understands that the Securities, have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of such Investor’s representations as expressed herein or otherwise made pursuant hereto.

3.2. Investment Intent. Such Investor is acquiring the Securities for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, and that such Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same in violation of the Securities Act. Such Investor further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or entity or to any third person or entity with respect to any of the Securities.

3.3. Investment Experience. Such Investor, has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company and acknowledges that such Investor, can protect its own interests. Such Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so that such Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company.

3.4. Speculative Nature of Investment. Such Investor understands and acknowledges that the Company has a limited financial and operating history and that an investment in the Company is highly speculative and involves substantial risks. Such Investor can bear the economic risk of such Investor’s investment and is able, without impairing such Investor’s financial condition, to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of such Investor’s investment.

3.5. Access to Data. Such Investor has had an opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the officers of the Company concerning the Transaction Documents, the exhibits and schedules attached hereto and thereto and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, as well as the Company’s business, management and financial affairs. Such Investor acknowledges that any business plans prepared by the Company have been, and continue to be, subject to change and that any projections included in such business plans or otherwise are necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions underlying the projections will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 3 (each as modified by the Schedule of Exceptions referred to therein) of this Agreement or the right of the Investors to rely thereon.

3.6. Accredited Investor. Such Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(a), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Act and shall submit to the Company such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably requested by the Company.

3.7. Residency. The residency of such Investor (or, in the case of a partnership or corporation, such entity’s principal place of business) is correctly set forth on the Schedule of Investors.

3.8. Rule 144. Such Investor acknowledges that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Such Investor is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) which permit resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, which may include, among other things, the availability of certain current public information about the Company; the resale occurring not less than a specified period after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold; the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations; the sale being effected through a “brokers’ transaction,” a transaction directly with a “market maker” or a “riskless principal transaction” (as those terms are defined in the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder); and the filing of a Form 144 notice, if applicable. Such Investor understands that the current public information referred to above is not now available and the Company has no present plans to make such information available. Such Investor acknowledges and understands that the Company may not be satisfying the current public information requirement of Rule 144 at the time the Investor wishes to sell the Securities, and that, in such event, such Investor may be precluded from selling such securities under Rule 144, even if the other applicable requirements of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Such Investor acknowledges that, in the event the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not met, registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration will be required for any disposition of the Securities. Such Investor understands that, although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell restricted securities received in a private offering other than in a registered offering or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk.

3.9. No Public Market. Such Investor understands and acknowledges that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Company’s securities.

3.10. Authorization.

(a) Such Investor has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents, to purchase the Securities hereunder and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of the Transaction Documents. All action on the part of the Investor necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, and the performance of all of such Investor’s obligations under the Transaction Documents, has been taken or will be taken prior to the Initial Closing.

(b) The Transaction Documents (as applicable), when executed and delivered by such Investor, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of such Investor, enforceable against such Investor in accordance with their terms except as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies or by general principles of equity.

(c) No consent, approval, authorization, order, filing, registration or qualification of or with any court, governmental authority or third person is required to be obtained by such Investor in connection with the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents (as applicable) by such Investor or the performance of such Investor’s obligations hereunder or thereunder.

3.11. Brokers or Finders. Such Investor has not engaged any brokers, finders or agents, and neither the Company nor any other Investor has, nor will, incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by such Investor, any liability for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or any similar charges in connection with the Transaction Documents.

3.12. Tax Advisors. Such Investor has reviewed with its own tax advisors the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by the Agreements. With respect to such matters, such Investor relies solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents, written or oral. Such Investor understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

3.13. Legends. Such Investor understands and agrees that the Notes, the Note Conversion Shares and the Shares, or any other securities issued in respect of the Notes, the Note Conversion Shares, upon any applicable stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar event, shall bear any legend required by the Transaction Documents or under applicable federal or state securities laws.

3.14. Exculpation. Such Investor acknowledges that it is not relying upon any person or entity, other than the Company and its officers and directors, in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company. Such Investor agrees that neither any Investor nor the respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents, or employees of any Investor shall be liable to any other Investor for any action heretofore taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Securities.

3.15. Investment Representations, Warranties and Covenants by Non-United States Persons. If such Investor is not a U.S. person (as defined in Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”)) or is deemed not to be a U.S. person under Rule 902(k)(2) of the Securities Act, such Investor has been advised and acknowledges that: (a) in issuing and selling the Securities to such Investor pursuant to this Agreement, the Company is relying upon the “safe harbor” provided by Regulation S and/or on Section 4(2) under the Securities Act; (b) it is a condition to the availability of the Regulation S “safe harbor” that the Securities not be offered or sold in the United States or to a U.S. person until the expiration of a one (1)-year “distribution compliance period” (or a six (6)-month “distribution compliance period,” if the issuer is a “reporting issuer,” as defined in Regulation S) following the applicable Closing; (c) notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the expiration of the one (1)-year “distribution compliance period” (or six (6)-month “distribution compliance period,” if the issuer is a “reporting issuer,” as defined in Regulation S) after the Closing (the “Restricted Period”), the Securities may be offered and sold by the holder thereof only if such offer and sale is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and either: (i) if the offer or sale is within the United States or to or for the account of a U.S. person (as such terms are defined in Regulation S), the Securities are offered and sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, or (ii) the offer and sale is outside the United States and to other than a U.S. person; and (d) until the expiration of the Restricted Period, such Investor, its agents or its representatives have not and will not solicit offers to buy, offer for sale or sell any of the Securities, or any beneficial interest therein in the United States or to or for the account of a U.S. person, unless pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

3.16. Representations by Non-United States Persons. If such Investor is not a U.S. person, such Investor is satisfied as to the full observance of the laws of such Investor’s jurisdiction in connection with any offer to acquire the Securities or any use of this Agreement, including: (a) the legal requirements within such Investor’s jurisdiction for the purchase of the Securities; (b) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase; (c) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained; and (d) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of such Securities. Such Investor’s subscription and payment for, and such Investor’s continued beneficial ownership of, Securities will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of such Investor’s jurisdiction.

The outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date, as determined pursuant to Section 3 hereof. Accrued but unpaid interest on the outstanding principal balance hereof shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date (as defined in Section 3 hereof). All payments shall be applied, first, to accrued but unpaid interest and, thereafter, to principal. All payments of principal and interest hereunder shall be tendered in lawful money of the United States of America at the address designated in Section 18 hereof, or at such other place as Lender may from time to time designate in writing.

2. Interest. This Note will accrue interest at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, compounded annually, computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 days, until maturity or conversion hereof. Notwithstanding any provision in this Note to the contrary, any interest payable hereunder shall automatically accrue and be capitalized to the principal amount of this Note (“PIK Interest”), and shall thereafter be deemed to be a part of the principal amount of this Note, unless such interest is paid in cash on or prior to the maturity date of this Note, as provide in Section 6 hereof. All PIK Interest that has accrued and has not been paid in cash shall be payable in cash on the maturity date provided in Section 3 hereof.

3. Maturity. This Note shall be due and payable on the date that is six (6) months from the date of this Note (the “Initial Maturity Date”); provided, however, that the Company and Lender may, upon mutual written agreement, extend such maturity date an additional twelve (12) months (such extended maturity date, (the “Extended Maturity Date”). The date on which this Note matures, whether the Initial Maturity Date or the Extended Maturity Date, is the “Maturity Date.”

4. Prepayments. The Company may prepay the Note, or any portion outstanding, at any time and from time to time prior to Maturity Date without notice and without the payment of any premium, fee, or penalty.

5. Conversion Right. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time to convert all, or any portion, of the outstanding principal balance of this Note into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to either (i) $3.00 per share, or (ii) the price at which shares of Common Stock are first sold to the public in a Qualified Public Offering. An election to convert the Note shall be made in writing and delivered to the Company no later than five (5) days before the Maturity Date; provided, however, that if the Qualified Public Offering is consummated within five (5) days before the Maturity Date, the notice of election will be delivered no later than five (5) days after the date on which such Qualified Public Offering is consummated.

Such election shall be irrevocable and shall be effective upon delivery of the conversion notice to the Company. No fractional shares shall be issued upon any conversion. Cash for any remainder amount shall be paid to Lender at an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the applicable conversion price by the fraction of a share not issued to the Lender.

6. Security. This Note is an unsecured general obligation of the Company.

7. Default Remedies. An “Event of Default” shall be deemed to have occurred upon:

(a) The Company fails to pay when due any of the payments due under this Note, which failure is not cured within ten (10) business days after the date due for such payment;

(b) The Company files any petition or action for relief under any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency law or an involuntary petition for bankruptcy is filed against the Company and such petition is not withdrawn or dismissed within 60 days after the filing thereof;

(d) Any order, judgment or decree is entered against the Company decreeing the dissolution or split up of the Company and such order remains undischarged.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Lender may at its option, by written notice to the Company, declare the entire principal amount of this Note, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, immediately due and payable. Xxxxxx’s rights, powers and remedies under this Note shall be in addition to any rights, powers and/or remedies available to Lender under applicable law or at equity.

8. Parity with Other Series Notes. The Company’s repayment obligation to Lender under this Note shall be on parity with the Company’s obligation to repay all Series Notes. In the event that the Company is obligated to repay all of the Series Notes and does not have sufficient funds to repay all in full, payment shall be made to the holder of each Series Note on a pro rata basis.

9. No Waiver; Cumulative Rights. No delay on the part of Lender in the exercise of any power or right under this Note or under any other instrument executed pursuant hereto shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right.

10. Waiver. The Company waives demand, notice, presentment, protest and notice of dishonor.

11. No Rights or Liabilities as a Stockholder. This Note does not by itself entitle Lender to any voting or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. In the absence of conversion of this Note, no provisions of this Note, nor any enumeration herein of the rights and privileges of Lender, shall cause Lender to be a stockholder of the Company for any purpose.

12. Governing Law. This Note (including any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Note) shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any law other than the law of the State of Delaware.

13. Usury. Interest paid or agreed to be paid under this Note shall not exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law and, in any contingency whatsoever, if Lender shall receive anything of value under this Note deemed to be interest under such laws which would exceed the amount of interest permissible under those laws, the excessive interest shall be applied first to the reduction of unpaid principal outstanding under this Note and the remainder of such excessive interest shall then be refunded to the Company if such excessive interest exceeds unpaid principal. All interest paid or agreed to be paid under this Note shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal so that the interest hereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum rate permissible under applicable laws.

14. Successors and Assigns. All of the stipulations, promises and agreements in this Note made by or on behalf of the Company shall bind the successors and assigns of the Company, whether so expressed or not, and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the Company and Lender. Any of the Company or Xxxxxx shall agree in writing before the effectiveness of such assignment to be bound by the provisions hereof.

15. Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Note shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and this Note shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

16. Transfer of Note. The Company may consider and treat the person in whose name this Note shall be registered as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes whatsoever and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Note, and the conversion rights described herein, shall not be transferable by the holder without the prior written consent of the Company. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the foregoing sentence, registration of any new owners shall take place upon presentation of this Note to the Company at its principal offices, together with a duly authenticated assignment. This Note is transferable only on the books of the Company. Notice sent to any registered owner shall be effective as against all the holders or transferees of the Note not registered at the time of sending the communication.

17. Amendment and Waivers. Any provision of this Note or any Event of Default may be amended, waived or modified only upon the written consent of the Company and Lender with such amendment, waiver or modification so effected being binding on all holders of the Note.

18. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (i) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (ii) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and if not so confirmed, then on the next business day, (iii) five days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (iv) one day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt, to a party at the address set forth below (which may be changed in accordance with these notice procedures):
