Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company has the right to sell to the Investor, and the Investor has the obligation to purchase from the Company, Purchase Shares as follows:

  

(a) Sales of Common Stock. Subject to the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 hereof (the “Commencement” and the date of satisfaction of such conditions the “Commencement Date”), at any time commencing on the Commencement Date and thereafter, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Investor, by its delivery to the Investor of a Purchase Notice from time to time, to purchase a minimum of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) and up to a maximum of five million dollars ($5,000,000) of Purchase Shares (the number of Purchase Shares being determined in accordance with Section 2(b) hereunder) for each Purchase Notice (subject to the Available Amount), at the Purchase Price on the Purchase Date (each, a “Purchase”). Each Purchase Notice will set forth the Purchase Price and number of Purchase Shares, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary (subject only to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation), the initial Purchase Notice hereunder will be for a Purchase Amount of Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000). If the Company delivers any Purchase Notice for a Purchase Amount in excess of the limitations contained herein, such Purchase Notice shall be void ab initio to the extent of the amount by which the amount of Purchase Shares set forth in such Purchase Notice exceeds the amount of Purchase Shares which the Company is permitted to include in such Purchase Notice in accordance herewith, and the Investor shall have no obligation to purchase such excess Purchase Shares in respect of such Purchase Notice; provided, however, that the Investor shall remain obligated to purchase the amount of Purchase Shares which the Company is permitted to include in such Purchase Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing dollar limitations, the Company and the Investor may, from time to time, mutually agree (in writing) to waive the aforementioned limitations for a relevant Purchase Notice, which waiver, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein. Except for the initial Purchase Notice hereunder, the Company may not deliver a Purchase Notice to the Investor prior to five (5) Business Days from the most recent receipt by Investor’s broker of Purchase Shares hereunder, except as the parties may otherwise agree.

(b) Settlement for Purchase Shares. On each Settlement Date, for each Purchase hereunder, the Company shall deliver a number of Purchase Shares equal to 112.5% of the aggregate Purchase Amount for such Purchase divided by the Purchase Price per share for such Purchase, against payment by the Investor to the Company of the Purchase Amount with respect to such Purchase (less documented deposit and clearing fees, if any), as full payment for such Purchase Shares via wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon the any Purchase. If any issuance hereunder 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 Purchase Shares issued hereunder will be DWAC Shares. All payments made under this Agreement shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Company 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.

 

(c) 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”). Upon the written or oral request of the Investor, the Company shall promptly (but not later than one Business Day) 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.
