WHEREAS, the Company recently conducted two PIPE Transactions with third party investors who negotiated to purchase the Company’s Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value (“Common Stock”), at $0.08 per share with demand registration rights (the “PIPE Price”), and JGUN acted as Placement Agent with respect to said Transactions and further, JGUN represented the Company with respect to ReCap Advisory Services and advanced Non-Accountable Expenses on behalf of the Company;

JGUN hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

2.1 Restricted Securities. The Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws. JGUN understands that the issuance of the Securities is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof and, if deemed advisable by the Company, the provisions of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, based, in part, upon the representations, warranties and agreements of JGUN contained in this Agreement.

3.1 General. The Payment Shares shall have such terms and conditions as set forth in this Section 3.

3.2 INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

3.3 Delivery of Payment Shares. The Payment Shares issued hereunder shall be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to JGUN by crediting the account of JGUN’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Payment Shares to or resale of the Payment Shares by JGUN or (B) the Payment Shares are eligible for resale by JGUN without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by JGUN (such date, the “Share Delivery Deadline”).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Payment Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Payment Shares, and (iii) use reasonable best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
