and state securities laws and regulations.
c) Reliance

the Company may treat the Person in whose name this Debenture is duly registered on the Debenture Register as the owner hereof
for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Debenture is overdue, and
neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Section 4. Conversion.
a) Voluntary
Conversion. At any time after the Original Issue Date until this Debenture is no longer outstanding, this Debenture shall be
convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time (subject
to the conversion limitations set forth in Section 4(d) and Section 4(e) hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering
to the Company a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (each, a “Notice of Conversion”),
specifying therein the principal amount of this Debenture to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected
(such date, the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion
Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered hereunder. No ink-original Notice of Conversion shall
be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be
required. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Company
unless the entire principal amount of this Debenture has been so converted in which case the Holder shall surrender this Debenture
as promptly as is reasonably practicable after such conversion without delaying the Company’s obligation to deliver the shares
on the Share Delivery Date. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture
in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s)
converted and the date of such conversion(s). The Company may deliver an objection to any Notice of Conversion within one (1) Business
Day of delivery of such Notice of Conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling
and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge
and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid
and unconverted principal amount of this Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
b) Conversion
Price. The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to $0.40, subject to adjustment herein (the
“Conversion Price”).
c)
Mechanics of Conversion.
i. Conversion
Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall
be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture to be converted by (y)
the Conversion Price.
ii. Delivery
of Conversion Shares Upon Conversion. Not later than two (2) Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery
Date”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder (A) the Conversion Shares which, on or after
the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective Date, shall be free of restrictive
legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be required by the Purchase Agreement) representing the number
of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of this Debenture and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid
interest. On or after the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective Date, the Company
shall deliver any Conversion Shares required to be delivered by the Company under this Section 4(c) electronically through the
Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions.
iii. Failure
to Deliver Conversion Shares. If, in the case of any Notice of Conversion, such Conversion Shares are not delivered to or as
directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Company
at any time on or before its receipt of such Conversion Shares, to rescind such Conversion, in which event the Company shall promptly
return to the Holder any original Debenture delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return to the Company the Conversion
Shares issued to such Holder pursuant to the rescinded Conversion Notice.
iv. Obligation
Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion
of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by
the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against
any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach
or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law
by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the
Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery
shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder. In the event the Holder
of this Debenture shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof, the Company may not refuse conversion
based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any violation of law,
agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion
of all or part of this Debenture shall have been sought and obtained, and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the
Holder in the amount of 150% of the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, which is subject to the injunction, which bond
shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall
be payable to the Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall issue Conversion
Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder
such Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii) by the Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to
$20 per Trading Day on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day
after such Share Delivery Date until such Conversion Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall
limit a Xxxxxx’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 hereof for the Company’s
failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies
available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive
relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section
hereof or under applicable law.
v. Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Conversion Shares Upon Conversion. In addition to any other rights available to the
Holder, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such Conversion Shares by the Share Delivery Date pursuant
to Section 4(c)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open
market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in
satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating
to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition
to any other remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase
price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock that the Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale
price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B)
at the option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Debenture in a principal amount equal to the principal amount
of the attempted conversion (in which case such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares
of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(c)(ii).
For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an
attempted conversion of this Debenture with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any brokerage
commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence,
the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts
payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein
shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver
Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Debenture as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
vi. Reservation
of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. Promptly after the Company increases the number of shares of authorized Common Stock that
may be issued by the Company, which amount of increase will be at least sufficient to provide for the full conversion of the Debentures,
the Company covenants that it will at from time to time reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of
Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Debenture, each as herein provided, free from preemptive
rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Debentures),
not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the
Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 5) upon the conversion of the
then outstanding principal amount of this Debenture. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable
shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and, if the Registration Statement is then
effective under the Securities Act, shall be registered for public resale in accordance with such Registration Statement.
vii. Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Debenture.
As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall
at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied
by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.
viii. Transfer
Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of Conversion Shares on conversion of this Debenture shall be made without charge to the Holder
hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such Conversion Shares,
provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance
and delivery of any such Conversion Shares upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of this Debenture so converted
and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such Conversion Shares unless or until the Person or Persons requesting
the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Company that such tax has been paid. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice
of Conversion and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions)
required for same-day electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares.
d) Xxxxxx’s
Conversion Limitations. The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Debenture, and a Holder shall not have the right
to convert any portion of this Debenture, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable
Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together
with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially
own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number
of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture with respect to which such determination is being made, but
shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal
amount of this Debenture beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or
conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion
or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, any other Debentures) beneficially owned
by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes
of this Section 4(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4(d) applies, the determination
of whether this Debenture is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and
Attribution Parties) and of which principal amount of this Debenture is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder,
and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Debenture may
be converted (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates or Attribution Parties) and which
principal amount of this Debenture is convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance
with this restriction, the Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that
such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Company shall have no obligation
to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above
shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
For purposes of this Section 4(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent
periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company,
or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one Trading Day confirm
orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including
this Debenture, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was
reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding
immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture held by the
Holder. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this
Section 4(d), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common
Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Debenture held
by the Holder and the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4(d) shall continue to apply. Any increase in
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company.
The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than
in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4(d) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective
or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary
or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor
holder of this Debenture.
e) Issuance
Limitations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the Authorized Share Increase Date, the Company may
not issue, upon conversion of this Debenture, a number of shares of Common Stock which, when aggregated with any shares of Common
Stock issued on or after the Original Issue Date and prior to such Conversion Date in connection with the conversion of any Debentures
issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, would exceed 566,398 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment for forward and reverse
stock splits, recapitalizations and the like) (such number of shares, the “Issuable Maximum”). Each Holder shall
be entitled to a portion of the Issuable Maximum equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the original principal amount of
the Holder’s Debenture by (y) the aggregate original principal amount of all Debentures issued on the Original Issue Date
to all Holders. Such portion shall be adjusted upward ratably in the event a Holder no longer holds any Debentures and the amount
of shares issued to the Holder pursuant to the Holder’s Debentures was less than the Holder’s pro-rata share of the
Issuable Maximum.
Section 5. Certain
Adjustments.
a) Stock
Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise
makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents
(which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of the Debentures),
(ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse
stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification
of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction
of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding
immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the
effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
b) Subsequent
Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 5(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues
or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record
holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to
acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired
if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Debenture (without regard
to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the
date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date
as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights
(provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder
exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such
extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase
Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in
the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
c) Pro
Rata Distributions. During such time as this Debenture is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or
other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital
or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of
a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”),
at any time after the issuance of this Debenture, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such
Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of
Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Debenture (without regard to any limitations on conversion hereof, including
without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution,
or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the
participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate
in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be
entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a
result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the
Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
d) Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related
transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly,
effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets
in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether
by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange
their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common
Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization
or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted
into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions
consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization,
recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or
party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other
business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture,
the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately
prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(d) and Section 4(e) on the
conversion of this Debenture), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company,
if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable
as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Debenture is convertible
immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(d) and Section 4(e) on the conversion
of this Debenture). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted
to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of
Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration
in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of
Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the
Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Debenture following
such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is
not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this
Debenture and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 5(e) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder
(without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the holder of this Debenture, deliver
to the Holder in exchange for this Debenture a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially
similar in form and substance to this Debenture which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such
Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of this
Debenture (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Debenture) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with
a conversion price which applies the conversion price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative
value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such
number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Debenture
immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance
to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted
for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Debenture and the other Transaction
Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and
power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Debenture and the other Transaction Documents
with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.
e) Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
For purposes of this Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall
be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.
f) Notice
to the Holder.
i. Adjustment
to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 5, the Company shall
promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement
of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice
to Allow Conversion by Xxxxxx. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on
the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C)
the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required
in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale
or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock
is converted into other securities, cash or property or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office
or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Debenture, and shall cause to be delivered to the Holder at its last
address as it shall appear upon the Debenture Register, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective
date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution,
redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record
to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date
as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common
Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the
validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes,
or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously
file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to convert this
Debenture during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such
notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
Section 6. [Reserved]
Section 7. Negative
Covenants. As long as any portion of this Debenture remains outstanding, unless the holders of at least 51% in principal amount
of the then outstanding Debentures shall have otherwise given prior written consent, the Company shall not, and shall not permit
any of the Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:
a) other
than Permitted Indebtedness, enter into, create, incur, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money

acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;

Debenture;

h) enter
into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.
Section 8. Events

occurrence of any Event of Default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Debenture, the interest rate on this Debenture

of the Debenture until such time, if any, as the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 8(b). No such rescission
or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

on this Debenture at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. This Debenture is a direct debt
obligation of the Company. This Debenture ranks pari passu with all other Debentures now or hereafter issued under
the terms set forth herein.

in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of a mutilated Debenture, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost, stolen

only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such Debenture, and of the ownership hereof, reasonably satisfactory
to the Company.
d) Governing
Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Debenture shall be governed
by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of
conflict of laws thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of
the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates,
directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in the City
of New York, Borough of Manhattan (the “New York Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any
transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents),
and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction of such New York Courts, or such New York Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding.
Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action
or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such
party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Debenture and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient
service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process

applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Debenture or the
transactions contemplated hereby. If any party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Debenture,
then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its attorneys fees and other
costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
e) Waiver.
Any waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Debenture shall not operate as or be construed to
be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Debenture. The failure of the
Company or the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Debenture on one or more occasions shall not be considered
a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Debenture
on any other occasion. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder must be in writing.
f) Severability.
If any provision of this Debenture is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Debenture shall remain in effect,
and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons
and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable
law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of
interest permitted under applicable law. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at
any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury
law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on
this Debenture as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants
or the performance of this Debenture, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits
or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution
of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been
enacted.
g) Remedies,
Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Debenture shall be
cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Debenture and any of the other Transaction Documents at law
or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s
right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Debenture.
The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly
provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation
thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any
other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder
will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore
agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available
remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic
loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall provide all information and documentation to the
Holder that is requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions
of this Debenture.
h) Next
Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment
shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
i) Headings.
The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Debenture and shall not be deemed to limit
or affect any of the provisions hereof.
j) Secured
Obligation. The obligations of the Company under this Debenture are secured by all assets of the Company and each Subsidiary
pursuant to the Security Agreement, dated as of October 18, 2018 between the Company, the Subsidiaries of the Company and the Secured
Parties (as defined therein)
Section 10. Disclosure.
Upon receipt or delivery by the Company of any notice in accordance with the terms of this Debenture, unless the Company has in
good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the
Company or its Subsidiaries, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days after such receipt or delivery publicly disclose such
material, nonpublic information on a Current Report on Form 8-K or otherwise. In the event that the Company believes that a notice
contains material, non-public information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Company so shall indicate to the Holder
contemporaneously with delivery of such notice, and in the absence of any such indication, the Holder shall be allowed to presume
that all matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries.
