2. PURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to the Investor, in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, and the Investor has the obligation to purchase from the Company, Purchase Shares as follows:

(a)       Commencement of Fixed Sales of Common Stock. Upon the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Sections 7 and 8 hereof (the “Commencement” and the date of satisfaction of such conditions the “Commencement Date”) and thereafter, until the Maturity Date or as earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Investor, by its delivery to the Investor of a Fixed Purchase Notice from time to time in accordance with this Agreement, to purchase the applicable Purchase Shares at the Fixed Purchase Price on the Fixed Purchase Date therefor in accordance with this Agreement (each such purchase, a “Fixed Purchase”); provided, however that the Investor’s committed obligation shall not exceed (i) $500,000 of shares of Common Stock under any single Fixed Purchase, or (ii) $10,000,000 in the aggregate of Fixed Purchases on any single Business Day, subject to adjustment as set forth below in this Section 2(a) (such maximum number of Purchase Shares, as may be adjusted from time to time, the “Fixed Purchase Share Limit”). If the Company delivers any Fixed Purchase Notice for a Purchase Amount in excess of the limitations contained in the immediately preceding sentence, such Fixed Purchase Notice shall be void ab initio to the extent of the amount by which the number of Purchase Shares set forth in such Fixed Purchase Notice exceeds the number of Purchase Shares that the Company is permitted to include in such Fixed Purchase Notice in accordance herewith, and the Investor shall have no obligation to purchase such excess Purchase Shares in respect of such Fixed Purchase Notice; provided, however, that the Investor shall remain obligated to purchase the number of Purchase Shares that the Company is permitted to include in such Fixed Purchase Notice. The Company may deliver a Fixed Purchase Notice to the Investor as often as every Business Day so long as (i) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fixed Purchase Date is not less than the Floor Price and (ii) the Transfer Agent has acknowledged the receipt of, and confirmed the processing of, a Transfer Agent Instruction Letter with respect to all Purchase Shares subject to any prior Fixed Purchase, or, the Investor has actually received all of the such Purchase Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not deliver any Fixed Purchase Notices to the Investor during the PEA Period.

(b)       VWAP Purchases. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from and after the Commencement Date, until the Maturity Date or as earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in addition to Fixed Purchases as described in Section 2(a) above, the Company shall also have the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Investor, by its delivery to the Investor of a VWAP Purchase Notice from time to time in accordance with this Agreement, to purchase the applicable VWAP Purchase Share Amount at the VWAP Purchase Price on the VWAP Purchase Date therefor in accordance with this Agreement (each such purchase, a “VWAP Purchase”). The Company may deliver a VWAP Purchase Notice to the Investor only (i) on a Fixed Purchase Date on which the Company also properly submitted a Fixed Purchase Notice providing for a Fixed Purchase of a number of Purchase Shares not less than the Fixed Purchase Share Limit then in effect on such Fixed Purchase Date in accordance with this Agreement, (ii) if the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding such VWAP Purchase Date is not less than the Floor Price, and (iii) if the Transfer Agent has acknowledged the receipt of, and confirmed the processing of, a Transfer Agent Instruction Letter with respect to all Purchase Shares subject to any prior VWAP Purchase, or, the Investor has actually received all of the such Purchase Shares. If the Company delivers any VWAP Purchase Notice directing the Investor to purchase an amount of Purchase Shares that exceeds the VWAP Purchase Share Amount that the Company is then permitted to include in such VWAP Purchase Notice, such VWAP Purchase Notice shall be void ab initio to the extent of the amount by which the number of Purchase Shares set forth in such VWAP Purchase Notice exceeds the VWAP Purchase Share Amount that the Company is then permitted to include in such VWAP Purchase Notice (which shall be confirmed in a VWAP Purchase Confirmation), and the Investor shall have no obligation to purchase such excess Purchase Shares in respect of such VWAP Purchase Notice; provided, however, that the Investor shall remain obligated to purchase the VWAP Purchase Share Amount which the Company is permitted to include in such VWAP Purchase Notice. Within one (1) Business Day after each VWAP Purchase Date for a VWAP Purchase, the Investor will provide to the Company a written confirmation of such VWAP Purchase setting forth the applicable VWAP Purchase Share Amount and VWAP Purchase Price for such VWAP Purchase (each, a “VWAP Purchase Confirmation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not deliver any VWAP Purchase Notices to the Investor during the PEA Period.

(c)       [Reserved.]

(d)       Payment for Purchase Shares.

(i)       For each Fixed Purchase, the Investor shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the Purchase Amount with respect to such Fixed Purchase as full payment for such Purchase Shares via wire transfer of immediately available funds on the third (3rd) Business Day following the Investor’s receipt of the Purchase Shares as DWAC Shares, if such Purchase Shares are received by the Investor before 1:00 p.m., Eastern time, or, if such Purchase Shares are received by the Investor after 1:00 p.m., Eastern time, the fourth (4th) Business Day following the Investor’s receipt of the Purchase Shares as DWAC Shares.

(ii)        For each VWAP Purchase, the Investor shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the Purchase Amount with respect to such VWAP Purchase, as full payment for such Purchase Shares via wire transfer of immediately available funds on the third (3rd) Business Day following the Investor’s receipt of the Purchase Shares as DWAC Shares, if such Purchase Shares are received by the Investor before 1:00 p.m., Eastern time, or, if such Purchase Shares are received by the Investor after 1:00 p.m., Eastern time, the fourth (4th) Business Day following the Investor’s receipt of the Purchase Shares as DWAC Shares.

(iii)       The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any Fixed Purchase or VWAP Purchase. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up or down to the nearest whole share. All payments made under this Agreement shall be made in lawful currency of the United States of America by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Company (or the Investor, as applicable) may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Agreement is due on any day that is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day.

(e)       Compliance with Rules of Principal Market.

(i)       Exchange Cap. Subject to Section 2(e)(ii) below, the Company shall not issue or sell any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, and the Investor shall not purchase or acquire any shares of Common Stock from the Company pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent that after giving effect thereto, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would be issued pursuant to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Commitment Shares) would exceed 3,464,880 (such number of shares equal to 19.99% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately preceding the execution of this Agreement), which number of shares shall be (i) reduced, on a share-for-share basis, by the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any transaction or series of transactions that may be aggregated with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under applicable rules of the Principal Market and (ii) appropriately adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other similar transaction that occurs after the date of this Agreement (such maximum number of shares, the “Exchange Cap”), unless and until the Company elects to obtain stockholder approval of the issuance of Common Stock as contemplated by this Agreement, and the stockholders of the Company have in fact approved the issuance of Common Stock as contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the applicable rules of the Principal Market. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may, but shall be under no obligation to, request its stockholders to approve the issuance of Common Stock as contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that if stockholder approval is not obtained in accordance with this Section 2(e)(i), the Exchange Cap shall be applicable for all purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby at all times during the term of this Agreement (except as set forth in Section 2(e)(ii) below).

(ii)       At-Market Transaction. Notwithstanding Section 2(e)(i) above, the Exchange Cap shall not apply if at any time the Exchange Cap is reached and at all times thereafter the price paid for shares of Common Stock issued under this Agreement is equal to or greater than applicable Base Price. The Base Price shall mean, with respect to each share to be sold to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement, the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Principal Market immediately prior to the Company’s timely delivery of a Fixed purchase Notice or VWAP Purchase Notice relating to such Shares to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required or permitted to issue, and the Investor shall not be required to purchase, any shares of Common Stock under this Agreement if such issuance would breach or violate the rules or regulations of the Principal Market. Further, in no event may any applicable New Issuance Price under this Agreement result in a price per Security that would violate the rules or regulations of the Principal Market, and the Company shall not undertake any transaction that would result in such a violative New Issuance Price. The Company may, in its sole discretion, determine whether to obtain stockholder approval to issue and sell shares in excess of the Exchange Cap at a price less than the Base Price if such issuance would require stockholder approval under the rules or regulations of the Principal Market. The Exchange Cap shall be reduced, on a share-for-share basis, by the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable that may be aggregated with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under applicable rules of the Principal Market.

(iii)       General. The Company shall not issue or sell any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement if such issuance or sale would reasonably be expected to result in (A) a violation of the Securities Act or (B) a breach of the rules and regulations of the Principal Market. The provisions of this Section 2(e) shall be implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms hereof only if necessary to ensure compliance with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Principal Market.

(f)       Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not issue or sell, and the Investor shall not purchase or acquire, any shares of Common Stock under this Agreement which, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by the Investor and its affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder), would result in the beneficial ownership by the Investor and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), provided that, the Investor may increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation up to 9.99% at its sole discretion upon sixty-one (61) days’ prior written notice to the Company; provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event will exceed 19.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement and the provisions of this Section 2(f) shall continue to apply. Upon the written or oral request of the Investor, the Company shall promptly (but not later than the next business day on which the Transfer Agent is open for business) confirm orally or in writing to the Investor the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. The Investor and the Company shall each cooperate in good faith in the determinations required hereby and the application hereof. The Investor’s written certification to the Company of the applicability of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the resulting effect thereof hereunder at any time, shall be conclusive with respect to the applicability thereof and such result absent manifest error.

(g)       Aggregate VWAP Purchase Limitation. Notwithstanding any other terms of this Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate amount of Purchase Shares submitted in any single or combination of VWAP Purchase Notices on a particular related VWAP Purchase Date require a payment from the Investor that exceeds $2,000,000, unless such limitation is waived by the Investor in its sole discretion as to any single or combination of VWAP Purchase Notices on a particular related VWAP Purchase Date.

(h)       Delivery of Purchase Notice. With respect to each Fixed Purchase Notice and/or VWAP Purchase Notice, the Company shall deliver to the Investor a completed form of purchase notice in materially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D.

In addition to any other rights and remedies under applicable law and this Agreement, so long as a Suspension Event has occurred and is continuing, or if any event which, after notice and/or lapse of time, would become a Suspension Event has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall not deliver to the Investor any Fixed Purchase Notice or VWAP Purchase Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing sentence shall not be deemed to apply to any notice from NYSE American received in the future regarding the Company’s failure to comply with the continued listing standards of NYSE American, unless and until all compliance and appeal periods for such failure have lapsed or expired.

(b)       In the event that (i) the Company fails to file the Registration Statement with the SEC within the period specified in Section 5(a) hereof in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement or (ii) the Commencement shall not have occurred on or before the one year anniversary of the Execution Date, due to the failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Sections 7 and 8 above with respect to the Commencement, then, in the case of clause (i) above, this Agreement may be terminated by the Investor at any time prior to the filing of the Registration Statement and, in the case of clause (ii) above, this Agreement may be terminated by either party at the close of business on the one year anniversary of the Execution Date or thereafter, in each case without liability of such party to the other party (except as set forth below); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11(b) shall not be available to any party if such party is then in breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any representation or warranty of such party contained in this Agreement fails to be true and correct such that the conditions set forth in Section 7(c) or Section 8(e), as applicable, could not then be satisfied.

(c)       At any time after the Commencement Date, the Company shall have the option to terminate this Agreement for any reason or for no reason by delivering notice (a “Company Termination Notice”) to the Investor electing to terminate this Agreement without any liability whatsoever of any party to any other party under this Agreement (except as set forth below). The Company Termination Notice shall not be effective until one (1) Business Day after it has been received by the Investor, and is subject to the Company having satisfied all of its existing Purchase Share and Commitment Share delivery obligations, and any other obligations, prior to the termination date.

(e)       If, for any reason or for no reason, the full Available Amount has not been purchased in accordance with Section 2 of this Agreement by the Maturity Date, this Agreement shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date, without any action or notice on the part of any party and without any liability whatsoever of any party to any other party under this Agreement (except as set forth below).

Except as set forth in Sections 11(a) (in respect of a Suspension Event under Sections 10(f), 10(g) and 10(h)), 11(d) and 11(e), any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11 shall be effected by written notice from the Company to the Investor, or the Investor to the Company, as the case may be, setting forth the basis for the termination hereof. The representations and warranties and covenants of the Company and the Investor contained in Sections 3, 4, 5, and 6 hereof, the indemnification provisions set forth in Section 9 hereof and the agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 10, 11 and 12 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any termination of this Agreement. No termination of this Agreement shall (i) affect the Company’s or the Investor’s rights or obligations under (A) this Agreement with respect to pending Fixed Purchases or VWAP Purchases and the Company and the Investor shall complete their respective obligations with respect to any pending Fixed Purchases and VWAP Purchases under this Agreement and (B) the Registration Rights Agreement, which shall survive any such termination, or (ii) be deemed to release the Company or the Investor from any liability for intentional misrepresentation or willful breach of any of the Transaction Documents.

(h)       No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns and, except as set forth in Section 9 with respect to those persons entitled to indemnity thereunder, is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

(i)       Publicity. The Company shall afford the Investor and its counsel with the opportunity to review and comment upon, shall consult with the Investor and its counsel on the form and substance of, and shall give due consideration to all such comments from the Investor or its counsel on, any press release, SEC filing or any other public disclosure by or on behalf of the Company relating to the Investor, its purchases hereunder or any aspect of the Securities, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby (other than any press release, SEC filing or other public disclosure that contains disclosures substantially similar to disclosures previously reviewed by the Investor or its counsel), not less than 24 hours prior to the issuance, filing or public disclosure thereof. The Investor must be provided with a final version of any portion of such press release, SEC filing or other public disclosure relating to the Investor, its purchases hereunder or any aspect of the Securities, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby at least 24 hours prior to any release, issuance, filing or use by the Company thereof.

(j)       Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably request in order to consummate and make effective, as soon as reasonably possible, the Commencement, and to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k)       No Financial Advisor, Placement Agent, Broker or Finder.

(l)       No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in this Agreement shall be subject to adjustment as provided in this Agreement for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement.

The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Investor 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 Investor shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

(n)       Enforcement Costs.

(o)       Amendment and Waiver; Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by a written instrument signed by both parties hereto and no provision of this Agreement may be waived other than in a written instrument signed by the party against whom enforcement of such waiver is sought. No failure or delay in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of May 6, 2025 (the “Execution Date”), is entered into by and between AMAZE HOLDINGS, INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and C/M CAPITAL MASTER FUND, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (together with its permitted assigns, the “Buyer”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement by and between the parties hereto, dated as of the Execution Date (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”).

WHEREAS:

A.       Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement, (i) the Company has agreed to issue to the Investor, and the Investor has agreed to purchase, up to the greater of an amount of shares equal to the Exchange Cap (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) or Thirty-Five Million Dollars ($35,000,000) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (such shares, the “Purchase Shares”), and (ii) the Company has agreed to issue to the Investor such number of shares of Common Stock as consideration for its commitment to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement at such time and otherwise in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 5(e) of the Purchase Agreement (the “Commitment Shares”); and

B.       To induce the Buyer to enter into the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any similar successor statute (collectively, the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Buyer hereby, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1.       DEFINITIONS.

As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

a.       “Investor” means the Buyer, any transferee or assignee thereof to whom the Buyer assigns its rights under this Agreement in accordance with Section 9 and who agrees to become bound by the provisions of this Agreement, and any transferee or assignee thereof to whom a transferee or assignee assigns its rights under this Agreement in accordance with Section 9 and who agrees to become bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

b.       “Person” means any individual or entity including but not limited to any corporation, a limited liability company, an association, a partnership, an organization, a business, an individual, a governmental or political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency.

c.       “Register,” “registered,” and “registration” refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing one or more Registration Statements of the Company in compliance with the Securities Act and pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule providing for offering securities on a continuous basis (“Rule 415”), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such Registration Statement(s) by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

d.       “Registrable Securities” means all of the Commitment Shares and all of the Purchase Shares that may, from time to time, be issued or become issuable to the Investor under the Purchase Agreement (without regard to any limitation or restriction on purchases), and any and all shares of capital stock issued or issuable with respect to the Purchase Shares, the Commitment Shares or the Purchase Agreement as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, exchange or similar event or otherwise, without regard to any limitation on purchases under the Purchase Agreement.

e.       “Registration Statement” means one or more registration statements of the Company covering only the resale of the Registrable Securities, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any New Registration Statement (as defined below).

2.       REGISTRATION.

a.       Mandatory Registration. The Company shall, within thirty (30) calendar days after the Execution Date, file with the SEC an initial Registration Statement on Form S-1 covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities as shall be permitted to be included thereon in accordance with applicable SEC rules, regulations and interpretations so as to permit the resale of such Registrable Securities by the Investor under Rule 415 under the Securities Act at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices), as mutually determined by both the Company and the Investor in consultation with their respective legal counsel; provided, however, the Company may delay filing or suspend the use of any Registration Statement if the Company determines upon advice of legal counsel, that in order for the registration statement to not contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed, or if the Board of Directors, upon advice of legal counsel, reasonably believes that such filing or use would require premature disclosure of information that could materially adversely affect the Company; provided, however, that in the event the Investor owns Purchase Shares at the time of any such suspension of use of the registration statement, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to make such registration statement available for the resale of such securities by the Investor as soon as practicable thereafter. The initial Registration Statement shall register only Registrable Securities. The Investor and its counsel shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon such Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement and any related prospectus prior to its filing with the SEC, and the Company shall give due consideration to all such comments. The Investor acknowledges that it will be identified in the initial Registration Statement (and in any New Registration Statement) as an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, and the Investor shall furnish all information reasonably requested by the Company for inclusion therein. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement and any amendment declared effective by the SEC at the earliest practicable date. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act and available for the resale by the Investor of all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby at all times until the date on which the Investor shall have resold all the Registrable Securities covered thereby and no shares of Common Stock remain issuable under the Purchase Agreement (the “Registration Period”). The effective Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

b.       Rule 424 Prospectus. The Company shall, as required by applicable securities regulations, from time to time file with the SEC, pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, the prospectus and prospectus supplements, if any, to be used in connection with sales of the Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement. The Investor and its counsel shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon such prospectus prior to its filing with the SEC, and the Company shall give due consideration to all such comments. The Investor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to comment upon such prospectus within one (1) Business Day from the date the Investor receives the substantially final pre-filing version of such prospectus.

c.       Sufficient Number of Shares Registered. In the event the number of shares of Common Stock available under the Registration Statement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall, to the extent necessary and permissible, amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement (a “New Registration Statement”), so as to cover all of such Registrable Securities (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2(a)) as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days after the necessity therefor arises, subject to any limits that may be imposed by the SEC pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment and/or New Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable following the filing thereof.

d.       Offering. If the staff of the SEC (the “Staff”) or the SEC seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities that does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales by the Investor under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices), or if after the filing of the initial Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2(a), the Company is otherwise required by the Staff or the SEC to reduce the number of Registrable Securities included in such initial Registration Statement, then the Company shall reduce the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such initial Registration Statement (after consulting with the Investor and its legal counsel as to the specific Registrable Securities to be removed therefrom) until such time as the Staff and the SEC shall so permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used as aforesaid. In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall file one or more New Registration Statements in accordance with Section 2(c) until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the prospectus contained therein is available for use by the Investor. Notwithstanding any provision herein or in the Purchase Agreement to the contrary, the Company’s obligations to register the Registrable Securities (and any related conditions to the Investor’s obligations) shall be qualified as necessary to comport with any requirement of the SEC or the Staff as addressed in this Section 2(d).

3.       RELATED OBLIGATIONS.

With respect to the Registration Statement and whenever any Registrable Securities are to be registered pursuant to Section 2, including on any New Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

a.       The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to any Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement.

b.       The Company shall permit the Investor to review and comment upon the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at least two (2) Business Days prior to filing such Registration Statement or New Registration Statement with the SEC, and not file any such document in a form to which the Investor reasonably objects in writing. The Investor shall use its reasonable best efforts to comment upon the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto within one (1) Business Day from the date the Investor receives the substantially final version thereof. The Company shall furnish to the Investor, without charge, any correspondence from the SEC or the Staff to the Company or its representatives relating to the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement.

c.       Upon request of the Investor, the Company shall furnish to the Investor, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, at least one copy of any Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits, (ii) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, a copy of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as the Investor may reasonably request) and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as the Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Investor. For the avoidance of doubt, any filing available to the Investor via the SEC’s live EDGAR system shall be deemed “furnished to the Investor” or “delivered to the Investor” hereunder.

d.       The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Investor reasonably requests, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d), (y) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify the Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of written notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

e.       As promptly as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of any event or fact, the result of which makes a material fact included in any Registration Statement, as then in effect, or any prospectus included therein untrue or results in the omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements then made therein (in the case of any prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, the Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the happening of such event or existence of such facts (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), and, subject to Section 3(n), promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver a copy of such supplement or amendment to the Investor. The Company shall also promptly notify the Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to the Investor by email or facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness or by overnight mail), (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to any Registration Statement would be appropriate.

f.       The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Investor of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

g.       The Company shall (i) cause all the Registrable Securities to be listed on the Principal Market if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of the Principal Market, or (ii) secure designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities on the Principal Market. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3(g).

h.       The Company shall cooperate with the Investor to facilitate the timely issuance of the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to any Registration Statement, it being agreed that such Registrable Securities shall be issued as DWAC Shares and in such denominations or amounts as the Investor may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investor may request.

i.       The Company shall at all times provide a transfer agent and registrar with respect to its Common Stock.

j.       If reasonably requested in writing by the Investor, the Company shall: (i) as soon as practicable after receipt of written notice from the Investor, incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the Investor reasonably believes should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable upon notification of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement or New Registration Statement.

k.       The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities in the United States as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

l.       Within one (1) Business Day after any Registration Statement which includes the Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall direct legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the Transfer Agent (with copies to the Investor) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Thereafter, if requested by the Investor at any time, the Company shall direct its counsel to deliver to the Investor a written confirmation whether or not the effectiveness of such Registration Statement has lapsed at any time for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop order) and whether or not the Registration Statement is current and available to the Investor for sale of all of the Registrable Securities.

m.       The Company shall take such other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investor of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement.

n.       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement, the Company may, upon written notice to the Investor, delay the initial effectiveness of any Registration Statement, or, at any time after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement, the Company may, upon written notice to Investor, suspend Investor’s use of any prospectus that is a part of any Registration Statement (in which event the Investor shall discontinue sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement, but shall settle any previously made sales of Registrable Securities) if the Company (x) is pursuing an acquisition, merger, tender offer, reorganization, disposition or other similar transaction and the Company determines in good faith that (A) the Company’s ability to pursue or consummate such a transaction would be materially adversely affected by any required disclosure of such transaction in such Registration Statement or other registration statement or (B) such transaction renders the Company unable to comply with SEC requirements, in each case under circumstances that would make it impractical or inadvisable to cause any Registration Statement (or such filings) to be used by Investor or to promptly amend or supplement any Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement on a post effective basis, as applicable, or (y) has experienced some other material non-public event the disclosure of which at such time, in the good faith judgment of the Company, would materially adversely affect the Company (each, an “Allowable Grace Period”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Investor be suspended from selling Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement for a period that exceeds thirty (30) consecutive trading days or an aggregate of ninety (90) trading days in any 365-day period. Upon disclosure of such information or the termination of the condition described above, the Company shall provide prompt notice, but in any event within one Business Day of such disclosure or termination, to the Investor and shall promptly terminate any suspension of sales it has put into effect and shall take such other reasonable actions to permit registered sales of Registrable Securities as contemplated in this Agreement (including as set forth in the first sentence of Section 3(e) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material, non-public information is no longer applicable).

4.       OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTOR.

a.       The Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the information the Company reasonably requires from the Investor in connection with any Registration Statement hereunder. The Investor shall promptly furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request.

b.       The Investor agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder and any amendments and supplements thereof.

c.       The Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event or existence of facts of the kind described in Section 3(n) or the first sentence of 3(e), the Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until the Investor’s receipt of the copies of a notice regarding the resolution or withdrawal of the stop order or suspension as contemplated by Section 3(n) or the supplemented or amended prospectus as contemplated by the first sentence of Section 3(e). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall direct the Transfer Agent to promptly deliver shares of Common Stock without any restrictive legend in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(n) or the first sentence of Section 3(e) and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

5.       EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.

All reasonable expenses of the Company, other than sales or brokerage commissions, incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, shall be paid by the Company.

6.       INDEMNIFICATION.

a.       To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Investor, each Person, if any, who controls the Investor, the members, the directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, representatives of the Investor and each Person, if any, who controls the Investor within the meaning of Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement (such settlement with the consent of the Company, and such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) or reasonable expenses, joint or several, (collectively, “Claims”) incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an Indemnified Person is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement, any New Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made by the Company in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered, or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement or (iv) any material violation by the Company of this Agreement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse each Indemnified Person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable and documented legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification obligations contained in this Section 6(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information about the Investor furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, any New Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto or prospectus contained therein, if such Registration Statement, New Registration Statement or amendment thereof or supplement thereof or prospectus contained therein was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) or Section 3(e); (ii) with respect to any superseded prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any such Person from whom the Person asserting any such Claim purchased the Registrable Securities that are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any Person controlling such Person) if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the superseded prospectus was corrected in the revised prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, if such revised prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) or Section 3(e), and the Indemnified Person was promptly advised in writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a violation and such Indemnified Person, notwithstanding such advice, used it; (iii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) or Section 3(e); and (iv) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to Section 9.

b.       In connection with the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement or prospectus, the Investor agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement, each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively and together with an Indemnified Person, an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information about the Investor set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto or updated from time to time in writing by the Investor and furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement or prospectus or any New Registration Statement or from the failure of the Investor to deliver or cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) or Section 3(e); and, subject to Section 6(d), the Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred (and documented) by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity obligations contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to the Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to Section 9.

c.       Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable and documented fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

d.       The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred. Any Person receiving a payment pursuant to this Section 6 that is later determined (via definitive adjudication) not to be entitled to such payment shall return such payment to the Person making it.

e.       The indemnity obligations contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to applicable law.

7.       CONTRIBUTION.

To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

8.       REPORTS AND DISCLOSURE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investor to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration (“Rule 144”), the Company agrees, at the Company’s sole expense, for as long as the Investor owns Registrable Securities, to use commercially reasonable efforts to:

a.       make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

b.       file with the SEC all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144;

c.       furnish to the Investor so long as the Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting and or disclosure provisions of Rule 144(c), the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration; and

d.       take such additional action as is reasonably requested by the Investor to enable the Investor to sell the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144, including, without limitation, delivering all such legal opinions, consents, certificates, resolutions and instructions to the Transfer Agent as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Investor and otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Investor and the Investor’s broker to effect such sale of securities pursuant to Rule 144; provided, however, the Investor shall provide such documents as may be reasonably required by the Transfer Agent in connection therewith, including any written representations or certifications of the Investor or its broker (which shall not include any opinion of the Investor’s counsel) that may be required by the Transfer Agent in connection therewith.

The Company agrees that damages may be an inadequate remedy for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Section 8 and that Investor shall, whether or not it is pursuing any remedies at law, be entitled to seek equitable relief in the form of a preliminary or permanent injunctions, without having to post any bond or other security, upon any breach or threatened breach of any such terms or provisions.

The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Investor; provided, however, that any transaction, whether by merger, reorganization, restructuring, consolidation, financing or otherwise, whereby the Company remains the surviving entity immediately after such transaction shall not be deemed an assignment. The Investor may not assign its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company, other than to an affiliate of the Investor, in which case the assignee must agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

10.       AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived by the parties from and after the date that is one (1) Business Day immediately preceding the initial filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, no provision of this Agreement may be (i) amended other than by a written instrument signed by both parties hereto or (ii) waived other than in a written instrument signed by the party against whom enforcement of such waiver is sought. Failure of any party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, or delay by a party in exercising such right or remedy, shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

11.       MISCELLANEOUS.

a.       A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities as set forth on the books and records of the Transfer Agent.

b.       Any notices, consents or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt when sent by email (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one Business Day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

This Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement is part of (and incorporated by reference into) the Business Loan and Security Agreement. Borrower should keep this important legal document for Borrower's records.

1.    INTRODUCTION. This Business Loan and Security Agreement (together with the accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement and the accompanying Authorization Agreement for Direct Deposit (ACH Credit) and Direct Payments (ACH Debits), this "Agreement") governs your business loan ("Loan") made by Balanced Management, LLC. Please read it and keep it for your reference. In this Agreement, the words "you", "your" and "Borrower" mean the Borrower(s) (jointly and severally if more than one) identified on the signature page of this Business Loan and Security Agreement. Each Guarantor identified on the signature page of this Business Loan and Security Agreement shall be referred to individually as "Guarantor" and collectively as "Guarantors" in this Agreement. The words "Lender", "we", "us", and "our" mean Balanced Management, LLC or its successor(s) and assign(s).

2. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Agreement begins on the date we accept this Agreement in Utah. Borrower understands and agrees that Lender may postpone, without penalty, the disbursement of amounts to Borrower until all required security interests have been perfected and Lender has received all required personal guarantees or other documentation.

3. AUTHORIZATION. Borrower agrees that the Loan made by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have been authorized by Borrower and to have been made pursuant to a duly authorized request on its behalf.

4.  LOAN FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES ONLY. The proceeds of the requested Loan may solely be used for the specific purposes as set forth in the Use of Proceeds Certification contained in Section 50 below, and not for any other purposes. In addition, the Loan will not be used for personal, family or household purposes, and Borrower and Guarantors are forever estopped from taking the position that such Loan (including Advances) are or were used for such personal, family or household purposes. Borrower understands that Borrower's agreement not to use the Loan proceeds for personal, family or household purposes means that certain important duties imposed upon entities making loans for personal, family or household purposes, and certain important rights conferred upon such persons, pursuant to federal or state law will not apply to the Loan or the Agreement. Borrower also understands that Lender will be unable to confirm whether the use of the Loan conforms to this section. Borrower agrees that a breach by Borrower of the provisions of this section will not affect Lender's right to

(i) enforce Borrower's promise to pay for all amounts

owed under this Agreement, regardless of the purpose for which the Loan is in fact obtained or (ii) use any remedy legally available to Lender, even if that

remedy would not have been available had the Loan been made for personal, family or household purposes.

5.       DISBURSEMENT OF LOAN PROCEEDS AND MAINTENANCE OF BORROWER'S BANK ACCOUNT. If Borrower applied and was approved for a Loan, Borrower's Loan will be disbursed upon approval as provided in the accompanying Authorization Agreement for Direct Deposit (ACH Credit) and Direct Payments (ACH Debits). Borrower agrees to maintain Direct Payments (ACH Debits) in its operating account which is the account that was reviewed in conjunction with underwriting and approval of this Loan (including keeping such account open until the Total Repayment Amount had been completely repaid). Borrower agrees that the Loan made by Lender to Borrower may not be returned except at Lender's sole discretion.

6.  PROMISE TO PAY. Borrower agrees to pay Lender the Total Repayment Amount shown in the accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement in accordance with the Payment Schedule shown in the accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement. Borrower agrees to enroll in Lender's Automatic Payment Plan and authorizes Lender to collect required payments as provided in the accompanying Authorization Agreement for Direct Deposit (ACH Credit) and Direct Payments (ACH Debits). If required by Lender, Borrower further agrees and authorizes Lender or its servicer to collect required payments from a transfer account established pursuant to certain Transfer Account Loan Documentation that will be provided by Lender in connection with this Business Loan and Security Agreement if applicable.

7.  ALTERNATIVE PAYMENT METHODS. If Borrower knows that for any reason Lender will be unable to process a payment under Lender's Payment Plan, then Borrower must either restore sufficient funds such that the missed payment can be collected as provided in the accompanying Authorization Agreement for Direct Deposit (ACH Credit) and Direct Payments (ACH Debits), or promptly mail or deliver a check to Lender in the amount of the missed payment or, if offered, make the missed payment by any pay- by-phone or on-line service that Lender may make available from time to time. If Borrower elects to send payments on Borrower's Account by postal mail, then Borrower agrees to send such payments to Balanced Management, LLC to 881 BAXTER DRIVE, South Jordan, UT 84095, Attn: Customer Service. All alternative payments must be made in good funds by check, money order, wire transfer, automatic transfer from an account at an institution offering such service, or other instrument in U.S. Dollars. Borrower understands and agrees that payments made at any other address than as specified by Lender may result in a delay in processing and/or crediting.

If Borrower makes an alternative payment on Borrower's Loan by mail or by any pay-by-phone or on-line service that Lender makes available while Borrower is enrolled in the Automatic Payment Plan, Lender may treat such payment as an additional payment and continue to process Borrower's scheduled Automatic Payment Plan payments or may reduce any scheduled Automatic Payment Plan payment by the amount of any such additional payment received.

8.  APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Subject to applicable law, Lender reserves the right to allocate and apply payments received on Borrower's Loan between principal, interest and fees in any manner Lender chooses in Lender's sole discretion it being understood and agreed that any fees and interest will generally be paid during the earlier portion of the term.

9.  POSTDATED CHECKS, RESTRICTED ENDORSEMENT CHECKS AND OTHER DISPUTED OR QUALIFIED PAYMENTS. Lender can accept late, postdated or partial payments without losing any of Lender's rights under this Agreement (a postdated check is a check dated later than the day it was actually presented for payment). Lender is under no obligation to hold a postdated check and Lender reserves the right to process every item presented as if dated the same date received by Lender or Lender's check processor unless Borrower gives Lender adequate notice and a reasonable opportunity to act on it. Except where such notice and opportunity is given, Borrower may not hold Lender liable for depositing any postdated check. Borrower agrees not to send Lender partial payments marked "paid in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Agreement. All notices and written communications concerning postdated checks, restricted endorsement checks (including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount) or any other disputed, nonconforming or qualified payments, must be mailed or delivered to Balanced Management, LLC, 881 BAXTER DRIVE, South Jordan, UT 84095, Attn: Customer Service.

10.  PREPAYMENT. Borrower may prepay Borrower's Loan in whole on any Business day by paying Lender the sum total of the Total Repayment Amount, any Returned Payment Fees, and any Late Fees, in each case as described in the accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement less (i) the amount of any Loan payments made prior to such prepayment and (ii) the product of (x) the percentage identified as the applicable Prepayment Interest Reduction Percentage in the

accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement; and (y) the aggregate amount of unpaid interest remaining on the Borrower's Loan as of such date as determined by Lender's records in accordance with Section 8. Borrower may prepay Borrower's Loan in part on any Business day and such payment shall be applied against the Total Repayment Amount, any Returned Payment Fees, and any Late Fees, in each case as described in the accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement.

11.  SECURITY INTEREST. Borrower hereby grants to Lender, the secured party hereunder, a continuing security interest in and to any and all "Collateral" as described below to secure payment and performance of all debts, liabilities and obligations of Borrower to Lender hereunder and also any and all other debts, liabilities and obligations of Borrower to Lender of every kind and description, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, primary or secondary, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, related to the Loan described in this Agreement, whether or not contemplated by the parties at the time of the granting of this security interest, regardless of how they arise or by what agreement or instrument they may be evidenced or whether evidenced by any agreement or instrument, and includes obligations to perform acts and refrain from taking action as well as obligations to pay money including, without limitation, all interest, other fees and expenses (all hereinafter called "Obligations"). The Collateral includes all assets of Borrower which shall include the following property that Borrower (or Guarantor, if applicable, pursuant to Section 12) now owns or shall acquire or create immediately upon the acquisition or creation thereof:

(i) any and all amounts owing to Borrower now or in the future

from any merchant processor(s) processing charges made by customers of Borrower via credit card or debit card transactions; and (ii) all other tangible and intangible personal property or other property, including, but not limited to (a) cash and cash equivalents, (b) inventory, accounts (including accounts receivable), royalties, security entitlements, stock, membership interests, commodity contracts and commodity accounts, (e) instruments, including promissory notes (f) chattel paper, including tangible chattel paper and electronic chattel paper,

The security interest Borrower (or Guarantor, if applicable, pursuant to Section 12) grants includes all accessions, attachments, accessories, parts, supplies and replacements for the Collateral, all products, proceeds and collections thereof and all records and data relating thereto. Lender disclaims any security interest in household goods

in which Lender is forbidden by law from taking a security interest.

12.    PROTECTING THE SECURITY INTEREST. Borrower agrees that Lender and/or Lender's Representative may file any financing statement, lien entry form or other document Lender and/or Lender's Representative requires in order to perfect, amend or continue Lender's security interest in the Collateral and Borrower agrees to cooperate with Lender and Lender's Representative as may be necessary to accomplish said filing and to do whatever Lender and Lender's Representative deems necessary to protect Lender's security interest in the Collateral. Borrower and Guarantor each agree that, if any Guarantor is a corporate entity, then Lender or Lender's Representative may file any financing statement, lien entry form or other document against such Guarantor or its property that Lender and/or Lender's Representative requires in order to perfect, amend or continue Lender's security interest in the Collateral. Any such Guarantor agrees to cooperate with Lender and Lender's Representative as may be necessary to accomplish said filing and to do whatever Lender or Lender's Representative deems necessary to protect Lender's security interest in the Collateral. In this Agreement, "Lender's Representative" means any entity or individual that is designated by Lender to serve in such capacity.

13.      LOCATION OF COLLATERAL; TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING COLLATERAL. Unless Lender has agreed otherwise in writing, Borrower agrees and warrants that (i) all Collateral (or records of the Collateral in the case of accounts, chattel paper and general intangibles) shall be located at Borrower's address as shown in the application, (ii) except for inventory sold or accounts collected in the ordinary course of Borrower's business, Borrower shall not sell, offer to sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Collateral, (iii) no one else has any interest in or claim against the Collateral that Borrower has not already told Lender about, (iv) Borrower shall not pledge, mortgage, encumber or otherwise permit the Collateral to be subject to any lien, security interest, encumbrance or charge, other than the security interest provided for in this Agreement and (v) Borrower shall not sell, offer to sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Collateral for less than the fair market value thereof. Borrower shall defend Lender's rights in the Collateral against the claims and demands of all other persons. All proceeds from any unauthorized disposition of the Collateral shall be held in trust for Lender, shall not be co-mingled with any other funds and shall immediately be delivered to Lender. This requirement, however, does not constitute consent by Lender to any such disposition.

14.    TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND LIENS. Borrower will complete and file all necessary federal, state and local tax returns and will pay when due all taxes, assessments, levies

and liens upon the Collateral and provide evidence of such payments to Lender upon request.

15.  RESERVED.

16.    REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE. Borrower agrees to keep and maintain, and to cause others to keep and maintain, the Collateral in good order, repair and condition at all times while this Agreement remains in effect.

17.    INSPECTION OF COLLATERAL AND PLACE OF BUSINESS; USE OF PHOTOGRAPHS AND TESTIMONIALS. Lender and Lender's designated representatives and agents shall have the right during Borrower's normal business hours and at any other reasonable time to examine the Collateral wherever located and the interior and exterior of any Borrower place of business. During an examination of any Borrower place of business, Lender may examine, among other things, whether Borrower (i) has a place of business that is separate from any personal residence, (ii) is open for business, (iii) has sufficient inventory to conduct Borrower's business and (iv) has one or more credit card terminals if Borrower processes credit card transactions. When performing an examination, Lender may photograph the interior and exterior of any Borrower place of business, including any signage, and may photograph any individual who has signed the Agreement ("Signatory") unless the Signatory previously has notified Lender that he or she does not authorize Lender to photograph the Signatory. Lender may obtain testimonials from any Signatory, including testimonials on why Borrower needed the Loan and how the Loan has helped Borrower. Any photograph and testimonial will become and remain the sole property of Lender. Borrower and each Signatory grant Lender the irrevocable and permanent right to display and share any photograph and testimonial in all forms and media, including composite and modified representations, for all purposes, including but not limited to any trade or commercial purpose, with any Lender employees and agents and with the general public. Lender may, but is not required to, use the name of any Borrower and Signatory as a credit in connection with any

photograph and testimonial. Borrower and each Signatory waive the right to inspect or approve versions of any photograph or testimonial or the written copy or other media that may be used in connection with same. Borrower and each Signatory release Lender from any claims that may arise regarding the use of any photograph or testimonial, including any claims of defamation, invasion of privacy or infringement of moral rights, rights of publicity or copyright.

18.  LENDER'S EXPENDITURES. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would materially affect Lender's interest in the Collateral or if Borrower fails to comply with any material provision of this Agreement or any related documents in any material respect, including but not limited to Borrower's failure to discharge or pay when due any amounts Borrower is required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any related documents, Lender on Borrower's behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to discharging or paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and other claims, at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and paying all costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving the Collateral. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all such expenses will become a part of the Obligations and, at Lender's option, will: (i) be payable on demand; (ii) be added to the balance of the Loan and be apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to become due during the remaining term of the Loan; or (iii) be treated as a balloon payment that will be due and payable at the Loan's maturity. Such right shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies to which Lender may be entitled upon an Event of Default.

19.            BORROWER'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Borrower represents and warrants that: (i) Borrower will comply with all laws, statutes, regulations and ordinances pertaining to the conduct of Borrower's business and promises to hold Lender harmless from any damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including attorneys' fees) or other harm arising out of any violation thereof; (ii) Borrower's principal executive office and the office where Borrower keeps its records concerning its accounts, contract rights and other property, is that shown in the application; (iii) Borrower is duly organized, licensed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of formation and shall hereafter remain in good standing in that state, and is duly qualified, licensed and in good standing in every other state in which it is doing business, and shall hereafter remain duly qualified, licensed and in good standing in every other state in which it is doing business, and shall hereafter remain duly qualified, licensed and in good standing in every other state in which the failure to qualify or become licensed could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business or operations of Borrower; (iv) the true and correct legal name of the Borrower is set forth in the application; (v)

A.    Origination Fee: A one-time Origination Fee in the amount set forth in the accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement. Borrower agrees that this fee will be immediately deducted from the proceeds of Borrower's Loan.

B.  Returned Payment Fee: A Returned Payment Fee in the amount set forth in the accompanying Business Loan

and Security Agreement Supplement if any electronic payment processed on Borrower's Loan is returned unpaid or dishonored for any reason.

C.   Late Fee: A Late Fee in the amount set forth in the accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement if a scheduled payment is not received by Lender as provided in the payment schedule set forth in the accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement.

Payments made by Borrower hereunder will be applied and allocated between Loan principal, interest and fees in the manner set forth in Section 8.

21.  INTEREST AND FEES EXCEEDING PERMITTED LIMIT. If the Loan is subject to a law that sets maximum charges, and that law is finally interpreted so that the interest or other fees collected or to be collected in connection with this Agreement exceed the permitted limits, then (i) any such charge will be reduced by the amount necessary to reduce the charge to the permitted limit and (ii) if required by applicable law, any sums already collected from Borrower that exceed the permitted limits will be refunded or credited to Borrower. This Agreement is subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by applicable law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the applicable interest rate (including fees) shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and all previous payments in excess of the maximum rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder.

22.   FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND REEVALUATION OF CREDIT. Borrower and each Guarantor (if any) authorize Lender to obtain business and personal credit bureau reports in Borrower's and any Guarantor's name, respectively, at any time and from time to time for purposes of deciding whether to approve the requested Loan or for any update, renewal, extension of credit or other lawful purpose. Upon Borrower's or any Guarantor's request, Lender will advise Borrower or Guarantor if Lender obtained a credit report and Lender will give Borrower or Guarantor the credit bureau's name and address. Borrower and each Guarantor (if any) agree to submit current financial information, a new credit application, or both, in Borrower's name and in the name of each Guarantor, respectively, at any time promptly upon Lender's request. Borrower authorizes Lender to act as Borrower's agent for purposes of accessing and retrieving transaction history information regarding Borrower from Borrower's designated merchant processor(s). Lender may report Lender's credit experiences with Borrower and any Guarantor of Borrower's Loan to third parties as permitted by law, including with respect to any Guarantor to consumer

credit reporting agencies. Borrower also agrees that Lender may release information to comply with governmental reporting or legal process that Lender believes may be required, whether or not such is in fact required, or when necessary or helpful in completing a transaction, or when investigating a loss or potential loss. Borrower and each Guarantor is hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on Borrower's and/or any Guarantor's credit record may be submitted to a credit reporting agency (including with respect to any Guarantor to consumer credit reporting agencies) if Borrower or such Guarantor fails to fulfill the terms of their respective credit obligations hereunder. Guarantor acknowledges that any credit reporting on the Loan shall be at the sole discretion of Lender (subject to applicable law) and that Lender has the right to report the Loan to Guarantor's personal credit file should Guarantor not pay any Obligation pursuant to the guaranty set forth in this Agreement.

23.  ATTORNEYS' FEES, PRE-JUDGMENT INTEREST, POST-JUDGMENT INTEREST AND COLLECTION COSTS. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law or otherwise provided in this agreement, Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand any and all expenses, including, but not limited to, collection costs, all attorneys' fees and expenses, and all other expenses of like or unlike nature which may be expended by Lender to obtain or enforce payment of Obligations either as against Borrower or any guarantor or surety of Borrower or in the prosecution or defense of any action or concerning any matter arising out of or connected with the subject matter of this Agreement, the Obligations or the Collateral or any of Lender's rights or interests therein or thereto, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any counsel fees or expenses incurred in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings and all costs and expenses (including search fees) incurred or paid by Lender in connection with the administration, supervision, protection or realization on any security held by Lender for the debt secured hereby, whether such security was granted by Borrower or by any other person primarily or secondarily liable (with or without recourse) with respect to such debt, and all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the defense, settlement or satisfaction of any action, claim or demand asserted against Lender in connection therewith, which amounts shall be considered advances to protect Lender's security, and shall be secured hereby. Lender shall also be entitled to Pre-Judgment Interest under Utah law calculated as follows: 52.5% APR applied to the outstanding Obligations of Borrower from the date of the Event of Default. Lender shall be entitled to post-judgment interest at a rate of 52.5% APR applied from the date of judgment or arbitration award until all obligations under the judgment or award are satisfied. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all such expenses, fees and pre-judgment and post judgment interest will become a part of the Obligations and, at Lender's option, will: (i) be payable on demand; (ii) be added to the balance of the Loan and be apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to become due during the remaining term of the Loan; or (iii) be treated as a balloon payment that will be due and payable at the Loan's maturity. Such right shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies to which Lender may be entitled upon an Event of Default.

(For Georgia Residents) Attorneys fees will be limited to 15% percent of the principal and interest owing on the Loans.

(For Utah Residents) Borrower will pay any collection cost Lender incurs, including reasonable attorney fees and court costs, as the law allows. If Lender hires an attorney or a third-party collection agency to collect what Borrower owes, Borrower will also pay the lesser of: (a) the actual amount Lender is required to pay to the third-party collection agency or the attorney, regardless of whether that amount is a specific dollar amount or a percentage of the amount owed to Lender; or (b) 40% of the amount owed to Lender.

24.    BORROWER'S REPORTS. Promptly upon Lender's written request, Borrower and each Guarantor agrees to provide Lender with such information about the financial condition and operations of Borrower or any Guarantor, as Lender may, from time to time, reasonably request. Borrower also agrees promptly upon becoming aware of any Event of Default, or the occurrence or existence of an event which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an Event of Default hereunder, to promptly provide notice thereof to Lender in writing.

25.      TELEPHONE COMMUNICATIONS. Borrower and Guarantors hereby expressly consents to receiving calls and messages, including auto-dialed and pre-recorded message calls and SMS messages (including text messages) from Lender, its affiliates, marketing partners, agents and others calling at Lender's request or on its behalf, at any telephone numbers that Borrower and/or Guarantors have provided or may provide in the future or otherwise in Lender's possession (including any cellular or mobile telephone numbers). Borrower and Guarantor agree that such communications may be initiated using an automated telephone dialing system.

26.  INDEMNIFICATION. Except for Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct, Borrower will indemnify and save Lender harmless from all losses, costs, damage, liabilities or expenses (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) that Lender may sustain or incur by reason of defending or protecting Lender's security interest or the priority thereof or enforcing the Obligations, or in the prosecution or defense of any action or proceeding concerning any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and/or any other documents now or hereafter executed in connection with this Agreement and/or the Obligations and/or the Collateral. This indemnity shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

27.   MERGERS, CONSOLIDATIONS OR SALES. Borrower represents and agrees that Borrower will not (i) merge or consolidate with or into any other business entity or (ii) enter into any joint venture or partnership with any person, firm or corporation.

28.  CHANGE IN LEGAL STATUS.

B.  Debit Amounts Due From Borrower's Accounts: Lender may debit from Borrower's Designated Checking Account all Automatic Payment Plan payments that Lender was unable to collect and/or the amount of any other Obligations that Borrower failed to pay.

C.  Accelerate Indebtedness: Lender may declare the entire Obligations immediately due and payable.

(For Texas Borrowers): If you are in default, Lender will require Borrower to repay the entire Obligation, including both unpaid principal balance and any accrued interest, at once.

D.    Assemble Collateral: Lender may require Borrower and/or Guarantor to deliver to Lender all or any portion of the Collateral and any and all certificates of title and other documents relating to the Collateral. Lender may require Borrower and/or Guarantor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place to be designated by Lender. Lender also shall have full power to enter, provided Lender does so without a breach of the peace or a trespass, upon the property of Borrower and/or Guarantor to take possession of and remove the Collateral. If the Collateral contains other goods not covered by this Agreement at the time of repossession, Borrower and/or Guarantor agrees Lender may take such other goods, provided that Lender makes reasonable efforts to return them to Borrower and/or Guarantor after repossession. This provision and remedy may be specifically enforced or secured by other equitable relief as acknowledged in section K and be available to Lender should an Event of Default occur.

However, no notice need be provided to any person who, after an Event of Default occurs, enters into and authenticates an agreement waiving that person's right to notification of sale. The requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given at least 10 days before the time of the sale or disposition. All expenses relating to the disposition of the Collateral, including without limitation the

expenses of retaking, holding, insuring, preparing for sale and selling the Collateral, shall become a part of the Obligations secured by this Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all such expenses will become a part of the Obligations and, at Lender's option, will: (i) be payable on demand; (ii) be added to the balance of the Loan and be apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to become due during the remaining term of the Loan; or (iii) be treated as a balloon payment that will be due and payable at the Loan's maturity.

The receiver may serve without bond if permitted by law. Lender's right to the appointment of a receiver shall exist whether or not the apparent value of the Collateral exceeds the Obligations by a substantial amount. Employment by Lender shall not disqualify a person from serving as a receiver. This provision and remedy may be specifically enforced or secured by other equitable relief as acknowledged in section K and be available to Lender should an Event of Default occur.

G.  Collect Revenues, Apply Accounts: Lender, either itself or through a receiver, may collect the payments, rents, income, and revenues from the Collateral. Lender may at any time in Lender's discretion transfer any Collateral into Lender's own name or that of Lender's nominee and receive the payments, rents, income and revenues therefrom and hold the same as security for the Obligations or apply it to payment of the Obligations in such order of preference as Lender may determine. Insofar as the Collateral consists of accounts, general intangibles, insurance policies, instruments, chattel paper, choses in action, or similar property, Lender may demand, collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose or realize on the Collateral as Lender may determine, whether or not any amount included within the Obligations is then due. For these purposes, Lender may, on behalf of and in the name of Borrower and/or Guarantor, receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to Borrower; change any address to which mail and payments are to be sent; and endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders, documents of title, instruments and items pertaining to payment, shipment or storage of any Collateral.

This provision may be enforced and secured through any equitable remedies set forth in paragraph K.

J.  Election of Remedies: Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights and remedies, whether evidenced by this Agreement, any related documents, or by any other writing, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of Borrower under the Agreement, after Borrower's failure to perform, shall not affect Lender's right to declare a default and exercise its remedies. This provision and remedy may be specifically enforced or secured by other equitable relief as acknowledged in section K and be available to Lender should an Event of Default occur.

This means, among other things: (i) Lender may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the Borrower; (ii) If Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by the Borrower:

(A)  The amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price.

(B)   Lender may collect from Guarantor even if Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from Borrower. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Guarantor may have because the Borrower's debt is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

(b)   Guarantor hereby waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed Guarantor's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against Borrower by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.

(c)  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor hereby expressly: (i) waives any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution and any other rights and or defenses that are or may become available to Guarantor by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code; (ii) waives any rights or defenses Guarantor may have in respect of its obligations as a guarantor by reason of any election of remedies by Lender;

(iii) waives any rights or defenses Guarantor may have in because the Borrower's note or other obligation is secured by real property or an estate for years, including, but limited to, any rights or defenses based upon, directly or indirectly, the application of Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure to the Borrower's note or other obligation; (iv) waives any and all, rights, defenses and/or benefits which might otherwise be available to it under California Civil Code Sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2839, 2845 and 3433; and (v) California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, or any similar statutes of other states.

(d)  Guarantor agrees that Lender may do any of the following without affecting the enforceability of the guaranty given by Guarantor or the other loan documents: (i) take or release additional security for any obligation in connection with the loan documents; (ii) discharge or release (by judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure, acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) any person or persons liable under the loan documents; (iii) accept or make compositions or other arrangements or file or refrain from filing a claim in any bankruptcy proceeding of Borrower, any guarantor of Borrower's obligations under the loan documents or any pledgor of collateral for any person's obligations to Lender; and (iv) credit payments in such other pledgor of collateral for any person's obligations to Lender or any other person in connection with the Loan.

(e)  Guarantor acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to

review the loan documents. Guarantor agrees to keep itself informed of all material aspects of the financial condition of Borrower and of the performance of Borrower to Lender and agrees that Lender has no duty to disclose to Guarantor any information pertaining to Borrower or any security for the obligations of the Borrower under the loan documents.

(f)  During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may elect to foreclose nonjudicially the lien of the deed of trust and, if such right has arisen, to also exercise its rights under this Guaranty. Guarantor acknowledges that its right to seek reimbursement from Borrower for any amounts paid by it to Lender under this Guaranty will be eliminated if Lender elects to so foreclose the lien of the deed of trust in accordance with such Deed of Trust. Nevertheless, Guarantor waives any such right to reimbursement and agrees that a nonjudicial foreclosure by Lender of the deed of trust will not affect the enforceability of the loan documents on Guarantor. In order to further effectuate such waiver, Guarantor hereby agrees that it waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure of the lien of the deed of trust, has destroyed its rights of subrogation and reimbursement against Borrower by the operation of Section 580d of the Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.

(g)    Guarantor agrees that Lender's right to enforce this

Guaranty is absolute and is not contingent upon the validity or enforceability of any of the loan documents against Borrower or any other person. Guarantor waives all benefits and defenses it may have under California Civil Code Section 2810 and agrees that Lender's rights under this Guaranty shall be enforceable even if Borrower or had no liability at the time of execution of the loan documents or later ceases to be liable.

(h)   Guarantor waives all benefits and defenses it may have under California Civil Code Section 2809 and agrees that Lender's rights under the loan documents will remain enforceable even if the amount secured by the loan documents is larger in amount and more burdensome than that for which Borrower is responsible. The enforceability of the Guaranty against Guarantor shall continue until all sums due under the loan documents have been paid in full and shall not be limited or affected in any way by any impairment or any diminution or loss of value of any security or collateral for Borrower's obligations under the loan documents, from whatever cause, the failure of any security interest in any such security or collateral or any disability or other defense of Borrower or any guarantor of Borrower's obligations under the loan documents, any Guarantor are not due and owing or have been paid in full or (y) all sums payable under the loan documents have been indefeasibly paid in full;

(i)   Guarantor waives all benefits and defenses it may have

under California Civil Code Sections 2845, 2849 and 2850, including, without limitation, the right to require Lender to (i) proceed against Borrower, any guarantor of Borrower's obligations under the loan documents, any other pledgor of collateral for any person's obligations to Lender or any other person in connection with the Loan, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any other security or collateral that Lender may hold, or (iii) pursue any other right or remedy for Borrower's benefit, and agree that Lender may exercise its rights under this Guaranty or may foreclose against any real property securing the Loan without taking any action against Borrower, any guarantor of Borrower's obligations under the loan documents, any pledgor of collateral for any person's obligations to Lender or any other person in connection with the Loan, and without proceeding against or exhausting any security or collateral Lender holds.

(j)   Guarantor waives any rights or benefits it may have by

reason of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a, or other applicable law, which could limit the amount which Lender could recover in a foreclosure of any collateral securing the Loan to the difference between the amount owing under the loan documents and the fair value of such collateral or interests sold at a nonjudicial foreclosure sale or sales of any other real property held by Lender as security for the obligations of Borrower under the loan documents.

(k)  Guarantor, as a guarantor or surety, waives diligence and all demands, protests, presentments and notices of protest, dishonor, nonpayment and acceptance of the loan documents.

(l)    This Guaranty shall be effective as a waiver of, and Guarantor hereby expressly waives:

(i)  any and all rights to which Guarantor may otherwise have been entitled under any suretyship laws in effect from time to time, including any right or privilege, whether existing under statute, at law or in equity, to require Lender to take prior recourse or proceedings against any collateral, security or person whatsoever;

(ii)   ) any rights of sovereign immunity and any other similar and/or related rights;

(iii)  any defenses generally available to guarantors under the laws of the State of California or otherwise;

(iv)   ) any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of Borrower or any guarantor of Borrower's obligations or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of Borrower from any cause other than that (x) the obligations guaranteed by

(v)   any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of Borrower or any principal of Borrower or any defect in the formation of Borrower or any principal of Borrower;

(vi)  any defense based upon the application by Borrower of the proceeds of the Loan for purposes other than the purposes represented by Borrower to Lender or intended or understood by Lender or Guarantor;

(vii)  any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a principal;

(viii)    any defense based upon Lender's election, in any proceeding instituted under the United States Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute;

(ix)  any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code;

(x)  the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of Guarantor hereunder or the enforcement hereof, including, without limitation, any rights arising under Section 359.5 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. Guarantor agrees that the payment of all sums payable under the loan documents or any part thereof or other act which tolls any statute of limitations applicable to the loan documents shall similarly operate to toll the statute of limitations applicable to Guarantor's liability hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, Guarantor expressly waives for the benefit of Lender to the extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses which might otherwise be available to Guarantor under California Civil Code Sections 2899 and 3433 or any similar law of California or of any other state or of the United States.

(m)  Guarantor hereby also waives (i) any defense based upon

Lender's failure to disclose to Guarantor any information concerning Borrower's financial condition or any other circumstances bearing on Borrower's ability to pay all sums payable under the loan documents; (ii) any right of subrogation, any right to enforce any remedy which Lender may have against Borrower and any right to participate in, or benefit from, any security for the loan documents now or hereafter held by Lender; and (iii) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind, and/or to plead discussion.

Guarantor agrees that the payment of all sums payable under the loan documents or any part thereof or other act which tolls any statute of limitations applicable to the loan documents shall similarly operate to toll the statute of limitations applicable to Guarantor's liability hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, Guarantor expressly waives to the extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses which might otherwise be available to Guarantor under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855 inclusive (subject to Section 1.9 of this Guaranty) and Chapter 2 of Title 14, 2899 and 3433 and under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, or any of such sections.

(n)   Guarantor agrees that it is bound to the payment of all

guaranteed obligations, whether now existing or hereafter accruing as fully as if such guaranteed obligations were directly owing to Lender by Guarantor. Guarantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense (other than that (x) the guaranteed obligations are not due and owing or have been paid in full or (y) all sums payable under the loan documents have been indefeasibly paid in full) of Guarantor or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Guarantor in respect thereof.

(o)   Guarantor hereby also waives (i) any rights to assert against Lender any defense (legal or equitable), set off, counterclaim, or claim which Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against Guarantor or any other party liable to Lender; (ii) any defense, set off, counterclaim, or claim, of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity, or enforceability of the guaranteed obligations or any security therefor; and (iii) any defense Guarantor has to performance hereunder, and any right Guarantor has to be exonerated, provided by Sections 2819, 2821, 2822, 2825, 2839 or 2853 of the California Civil Code, or otherwise, including, without limitation, arising by reason of: any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by Lender; the impairment or suspension of Lender's rights or remedies against Guarantor; the alteration by Lender of the guaranteed obligations; any discharge of Guarantor's obligations to Lender by operation of law as a result of Lender's intervention or omission; or the acceptance by Lender of anything in partial satisfaction of the guaranteed obligations. Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that, as a result of the foregoing sentence, Guarantor is knowingly waiving in advance a complete or partial defense to this Guaranty arising under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580d or 580a and based upon Lender's election to conduct a private non-judicial foreclosure sale.

DIRECT DEPOSIT (ACH CREDIT) AND DIRECT PAYMENTS (ACH DEBITS)

This Authorization Agreement for Direct Deposit (ACH Credit) and Direct Payments (ACH Debits) is part of (and incorporated by reference into) the Business Loan and Security Agreement. Borrower should keep this important legal document for Borrower's records.

DISBURSMENT OF LOAN PROCEEDS. By executing this Authorization Agreement for Direct Deposit (ACH Credit) and Direct Payments (ACH Debits), Borrower authorizes Lender to disburse the Loan proceeds less the amount of any applicable fees upon Loan approval by initiating an ACH credit, wire transfer or similar means to the checking account indicated herein (or a substitute checking account Borrower later identifies and is acceptable to Lender) (hereinafter referred to as the "Designated Checking Account") in the disbursal amount set forth in the accompanying Business Loan and Security Agreement Supplement. This authorization is to remain in full force and effect until Lender has received written notification from Borrower of its termination in such time and in such manner as to afford Lender and Borrower's depository bank a reasonable opportunity to act on it. Borrower represents that Borrower is the owner of the Designated Checking Account.

PAYMENT PLAN: At all times prior to Borrower fully satisfying all payment obligations under this Agreement, Borrower shall provide Lender with full and continuous access to Borrower’s Designated Checking Account and its statements and transaction history. Lender shall have the right to monitor the Designated Checking Account at all times through both online and in person access to information. Borrower’s failure to allow Lender access all available information regarding the Designated Checking Account shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement by Borrower and shall constitute an Event of Default as defined in this Agreement. Lender is not responsible for any fees charged by Borrower's bank as the result of credits or debits initiated under this agreement. The origination of ACH transactions to Borrower's account must comply with the provisions of U.S. law. Borrower agrees to be bound by NACHA rules of the Electronic Payments Association. Borrower agrees to provide to Lender at all times, "Live Contemporaneous Access" to all of its bank accounts in order for Lender to evaluate Borrower's compliance with the Agreement, and for collections in the Event of Default ("Borrower's Accounts"). "Live Contemporaneous Access" shall be defined as: Borrower, at all times and including but not limited to, providing Lender with accurate login information necessary to access all of Borrower's Accounts, such as usernames and passwords, answers to challenge questions, and security tokens. If Borrower fails to provide Live Contemporaneous Access to Borrower’s accounts, such occurrence shall be an Event of Default. Borrower shall provide notice to Lender in the event Borrower makes any changes to the Designated Checking Account, including in the event Borrower closes the Designated Checking Account. Failure to provide this notice shall be an Event of Default.

Provisional Payment. Credit given by us to you with respect to an automated clearing house ("ACH") credit entry is provisional until

we receive final settlement for such entry through a Federal Reserve Bank. If we do not receive such final settlement, you are hereby notified and agree that we are entitled to a refund of the amount credited to you in connection with such entry, and the party making to you via such entry (i.e. the originator of the entry) shall not be deemed to have paid you in the amount of such entry.

Notice of Receipt of Entry. Under the operating rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association, which are applicable to ACH transactions involving your account, we are not required to give next day notice to you of receipt of an ACH item and we will not do so. However, we will continue to notify you of the receipt of payments in the periodic statement we provide to you.

BUSINESS PURPOSE ACCOUNT. By executing this Authorization Agreement for Direct Deposit (ACH Credit) and Direct Payments (ACH Debits), Borrower attests that the Designated Checking Account was established for business purposes and not primarily for personal, family or household purposes.

ACCOUNT CHANGES. Borrower agrees to promptly notify Lender in writing if there are any changes to the account and routing numbers of the Designated Checking Account.

MISCELLANEOUS.
