(b) The Parties agree to execute and/or deliver such other documents and agreements as are customary and reasonably necessary to effectuate this Agreement.

 

(c) This Agreement constitutes a waiver and consent and is limited to the matters expressly consented to and waived herein.

 

3. Amendment.

 

(a) The Parties agree to amend Section 4(o) of the SPA by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following (for the avoidance of doubt Section 4(o)(i) is not being deleted or amended but being retained as set forth in the SPA):

 

“o. Commitment Fee Shares. The Company shall pay to Buyer, as a commitment fee, Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 United States Dollars (US$250,000.00) (the “Commitment Fee”) by issuing to Buyer that number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock equal to such amount at a per share price of $0.01. It is agreed that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to Buyer under this Section 4(o) shall be 25,000,000 (the “Commitment Fee Shares”). The Commitment Fee Shares are issuable by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) in three (3) certificates or book entry statements, in two certificates representing 6,250,000 of the Commitment Fee Shares issuable to the Buyer immediately upon the Company’s execution of this Agreement and an additional certificate representing 12,500,000 shares issuable to the Holder not later than November 8th, 2021. The Buyer shall never be in possession of an amount of Common Stock greater than 4.99% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company provided, however that this ownership restriction described in this Section may be waived by Buyer, in whole or in part, upon 61 days’ prior written notice. In the event such certificates representing the Commitment Fee Shares issuable hereunder shall not be delivered to the Buyer, same shall be an immediate default under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Commitment Fee Shares when issued, shall be deemed to be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Commitment Fee Shares shall be deemed fully earned as of the Effective Date, regardless of the amount or number of Loans made hereunder;”
