WHEREAS, Borrower executed an Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated August 15, 2016, payable to the order of Lender in the principal amount of $1,200,000.00, with a maturity date of September 30, 2016, and an Amendment to Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated September 30, 2016, which extended the maturity date to October 14, 2016 (together with all previous amendments or modifications thereto, the “Note”);

WHEREAS, Borrower and Lender desire to amend the Note as provided for below;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

3.       Borrower hereby certifies that: (a) all of its representations and warranties in the Note are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment; (b) no Event of Default or event which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an Event of Default, exists under the Note; and (c) this Amendment has been executed and delivered so that it constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Borrower confirms that the obligations under the Note remain outstanding without defense, set off, counterclaim, discount or charge of any kind as of the date of this Amendment.

4.       This Amendment is a continuation of the Note and shall not be construed as a novation or extinguishment of the obligations arising under the Note as originally issued, and the issuance of this Amendment shall not affect the priority of any security interest granted in connection with the Note. The execution of this Amendment shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any default or Event of Default.

5.       Borrower hereby confirms that the collateral for the Note, including but not limited to the following: (i) Security Agreement from HEALTHWAREHOUSE.COM, INC., HWAREH.COM, INC. and HOCKS.COM, INC. dated March 28, 2013, covering all business assets, including but not limited to accounts, inventory, equipment , deposit accounts and general intangibles and (ii) Deposit Account Control Agreement dated October 22, 2015 between Borrower, Lender and Cheviot Savings Bank with respect to Borrower’s deposit accounts, as restated by a Deposit Account Control Agreement dated July 8, 2016 between MainSource Bank, successor in interest to Cheviot Savings Bank, Borrower and Lender, with respect to Borrower’s deposit accounts at MainSource Bank ((i) and (ii), collectively, the “Collateral”), shall continue unimpaired and in full force and effect.

6.       Borrower hereby releases and/or forever discharges Lender, including its members, managers, employees, agents, attorneys, officers, directors, representatives and affiliates (collectively “Lender Parties”), from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, liabilities, losses or costs, whether known or unknown, which they have, may have, claim to have or allege to have against Lender Parties as of the date this Amendment is executed, which relate to the Note, as amended, or the terms of the Note, as amended, or any instrument related to the Note executed prior to the date this Amendment is executed, including the Loan Documents, and/or any other actions taken or not taken by the Lender Parties in connection with the obligations under the Loan Documents prior to the date this Amendment is executed.

7.       This Amendment may be signed in any number of counterpart copies and by the parties hereto on separate counterparts, but all such copies shall constitute one and the same instrument.

8.       Each party to this Amendment agrees that the terms and conditions of this Amendment are the result of arms-length negotiations between the parties and that this Amendment shall not be construed in favor of or against any party by reason of the extent to which any party, or its counsel, participated in the drafting of this Amendment.

9.       This Amendment will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns.

10.       Except as expressly modified hereby, the Note remains unaltered and in full force and effect. This Amendment shall be considered an integral part of the Note, and all references to the Note in the Note itself or any other Loan Documents shall, on and after the date of this Amendment, be deemed to be references to the Note as amended by this Amendment. Borrower acknowledges that Lender has made no oral representations to Borrower with respect to the Note and this Amendment thereto and that all prior understandings between the parties are merged into the Note as amended by this Amendment.

11.       WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY MATTERS ARISING OUT OF THIS AMENDMENT, THE NOTE AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

12.       CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT. Borrower authorizes any attorney to appear in any court of record in or of the State of Ohio, after the Note becomes due and payable, whether by its terms or upon default, to waive service of process and enter judgment by confession against Borrower in favor of Lender or any holder hereof for the outstanding principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Note, plus all costs of collection, including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees, and thereby to waive and release all errors in the proceedings and judgment, and all rights of appeal from such judgment and stay of execution. Stay of execution and all exemptions are hereby waived. Borrower also agrees that the attorney acting for Borrower as set forth in this paragraph may be compensated by Lender for such services, and Borrower waives any conflict of interest caused by such representation and compensation arrangement. If an obligation is referred to an attorney for collection, and the payment is obtained without the entry of a judgment, the obligors will pay to Lender its attorneys' fees.
