AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual conditions and covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, it is hereby stipulated, consented to, and agreed by and among the Parties as follows:
1. Conversion of Payout Notes. On the Closing Date (as defined below), the Company and the Note Holders agree to accomplish the following:
(a) The Payout Notes shall be converted into the Payout Shares and the Company shall issue to each of the Note Holders the number of Payout Shares specified opposite each such Note Holder’s name on Appendix A to this Agreement in conversion of, and in full satisfaction of, all the obligations of the Company under the Payout Notes.
(b) Each Note Holder agrees that upon receipt of their Payout Shares all obligations under their Payout Note will be satisfied and discharged in full and any liens or security interests in any of the Company’s assets as security for the Company’s obligations under such Payout Notes shall be terminated and released without further action by or on behalf of the Note Holders. Each of the Note Holders hereby authorize the Company, after issuance to the Payout Shares to each of the Note Holders, to take any action as may be necessary to effectuate a release of such security interests including filing UCC-3 termination statements in the appropriate jurisdictions. For the avoidance of doubt, upon issuance of the Payout Shares to the Note Holders, that certain Security Agreement, dated October 12, 2017, among the Company and the Note Holders shall automatically be terminated and of no further force and effect with all obligations of the parties thereunder released.
2. Requirement to Make Cash Payments. The Company shall make the cash payments to the Note Holders (the “Cash Payments”) in the amounts and on the dates specified in Appendix B to this Agreement in consideration of the services to be provided by such individuals under Section 4 (the “Services”). The Cash Payments will be paid through the Company’s customary payroll system in accordance with its payroll policy and the Note Holders shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s health plan during the period that they provide the Services. The Note Holders agree that the Company may, at its option, prepay the Cash Payments at any time without any penalty or premium. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company instructs the Note Holders to cease providing the Services or otherwise attempts or does terminate the Note Holders as Service providers for any reason, such cessation of Services or termination will not affect the Company’s obligation to make the Cash Payments.
3. Issuance of Additional Shares; Shareholder Approval.
(a) Promptly, and, in any event, within ten (10) days after obtaining Shareholder Approval (as defined below), the Company shall issue to each Note Holder the number of Additional Shares set forth opposite such Note Holder’s name on Appendix A to this Agreement.
(b) The rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market require approval from the Company’s stockholders prior to the issuance of the Additional Shares that are in excess of 19.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock on the date of this Agreement. Therefore, as promptly as possible following the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a proxy statement and take all actions necessary under Nevada law and the listing rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market to hold a special meeting of its stockholders to authorize and approve the issuance of the Additional Shares to the Note Holders (the “Shareholder Approval”).

SECTION 5. Confidentiality.
(a) Confidentiality by the Securityholders. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, each Securityholder agrees to treat and hold as confidential, any confidential or proprietary information of the Note Holders relating, except for any such information which is generally known to the public or becomes generally known to the public, other than as a result of a disclosure by such Securityholder and not due to the breach of this Agreement (“Confidential Information”), and to refrain from disclosing any Confidential Information, except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5. Unless otherwise public information, the existence of any business negotiations, discussions, consultations or agreements in progress between the parties hereto, or between the Note Holders and certain third parties, shall not be released to any form of public media without the prior written consent of the Note Holders. Each Securityholder agrees that it shall treat all Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care as it accords to its own information of like nature, and each Securityholder represents that it exercises at least reasonable care to protect its own confidential information. Each Securityholder may disclose Confidential Information only to those of its employees, officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, or owners of a similar equity interest in such Securityholder, or any of such Securityholder’s agents or representatives (all such persons or entities, collectively, “Securityholder Representatives”) who (i) need to know such information for the purposes of advising such Securityholder with respect to the Stock Grant Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Grant Agreement and (ii) are informed by such Securityholder of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Confidential Information. Each Securityholder also agrees to be responsible for enforcing the terms of this Agreement as to its Securityholder Representatives and maintaining the confidentiality of the Confidential Information and to take such action, legal or otherwise, to the extent necessary to cause them to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and thereby prevent any disclosure or prohibited use of Confidential Information by any of its Securityholder Representatives.
(b) Disclosure Required by Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Securityholder or any of the Securityholder’s Representatives may disclose Confidential Information without Note Holders’ consent to the extent required by law or legal process (provided that, unless prohibited by law, it first provides prompt notice to the Note Holders so that the Note Holders may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or consent to the disclosure). In the event a Securityholder or any of the Securityholder’s Representatives are required to so disclose Confidential Information, such Securityholder or such Representative may furnish that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information that such person or entity has been advised by legal counsel that it is legally compelled or otherwise required to disclose, and such person or entity shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any Confidential Information so disclosed and, if requested by the Note Holders, shall use reasonable efforts to assist the Note Holders in obtaining an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information so disclosed. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement as required by the rules and regulations of any national securities exchange, NASDAQ, or other market on which its securities are listed or qualified, the Securities and Exchange Commission or other applicable governmental or regulatory body.
