This First Amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement (this “Amendment”) is made as of July 20, 2021 (the “Amendment Effective Date”), and with reference to that certain Note Purchase Agreement dated as of March 5, 2020 (the “Purchase Agreement”) among Astro Aerospace, Ltd., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and Westworld Financial Capital, LLC (the “Investor”). Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used in this Amendment without definition shall have the respective meanings specified in the Transaction Documents (as such term is defined under the Purchase Agreement). The Purchase Agreement, as Amended by this Amendment, is referred to herein as the “Agreement”.
WHEREAS, under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued and sold to the Investor, a Senior Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of One Million Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand ($1,250,000.00) Dollars (the “Transaction”);
WHEREAS, as part of the Transaction, the Company agreed (i) on or prior to the thirtieth day after the Closing, to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities, and (ii) to have the registration statement declared effective by the 90th day following the Closing;

SECTION 1. Increase of Principal Amount of Note

Under the Purchases Agreement, the Company agreed that on or prior to the thirtieth day following the Closing it would prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement covering all of the Registrable Securities. The Company further agreed to have such Registration Statement declared effective within 90 days of the Closing. In consideration for not having timely filed the registration statement with respect to the Registrable Securities and not having the registration statement declared effective within 90 days of the Closing, the Company hereby agrees to increase the principal amount of the Note, and to thereby amend Exhibit A to the Purchase Agreement, to revise the existing Principal Amount from One Million Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand ($1,250,000.00) Dollars and to change it to One Million Five Hundred and Sixty-Two Thousand ($1,562,000) Dollars (the “Principal Amount”) as of the Amendment Effective Date, and to obtain Nasdaq’s approval of the listing of the additional Registrable Securities issuable upon conversion of the Note amended hereby on Nasdaq within the time period set forth

(b)
The Company further agrees (i) to file a Registration Statement covering the additional Registrable Securities within thirty (30) days of the Amendment Effective Date, (ii) to have such Registrable Securities registered and listed on Nasdaq, and (iii) to have such Registration Statement declared effective within ninety (90) days of the Amendment Effective Date, all in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the filing and effectiveness of the Registration Statement and any failure related thereto, are subject to the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement and the covenants of the Company in the Note, including, but not limited to, Section 2.3 thereof.
