1)Notwithstanding anything in the Note or any other Note Document to the contrary, at any time on or after a Restriction Trigger and prior to New Nasdaq Stockholder Approval, the aggregate number of Interest Shares deliverable or previously delivered upon any interest payments under the Note plus the number of shares of common stock that may be issued or were previously issued in respect of conversion of principal or any other portion of the Note, shall not exceed1,737,247 shares of the Company’s Common Stock1, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Common Stock (the “Limit”).

2)Any interest amount of this Note that would otherwise be payable in Interest Shares, but for which such Interest Shares may not be issued pursuant to the restrictions of Section 1 of this letter, shall instead be payable in cash or, if either the New Nasdaq Stockholder Approval has occurred or the Company receives advice of counsel that payment in Interest Shares is otherwise permitted by the Nasdaq Rules, then in additional Interest Shares, within five Business Days of the earlier of: (x) August 11, 2026; and (y) the date of New Nasdaq Stockholder Approval.

3)As used in this letter, the following capitalized terms have the following meanings:

a.New Nasdaq Minimum Price” means $3.04 (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Common Stock that occurs after the date of this Second Amended and Restated Convertible Promissory Note), which is the “minimum price” on the date of the Second Amended and Restated Convertible Promissory Note in accordance with Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5635.
b.New Nasdaq Stockholder Approval” means the receipt by the Company of requisite approval from its stockholders received after the date of the Second Amended and Restated Convertible Promissory Note to issue more than the Limit of its outstanding shares of Common Stock in respect of any conversion of principal or interest of this Note at an issue price below the New Nasdaq Minimum Price.

4)The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a New Nasdaq Stockholder Approval at a special or annual stockholders meeting after the date hereof; provided, however, if the Company receives advice of counsel that no such New Nasdaq Stockholder Approval is required as a result of the Amendments, then the Company shall promptly notify the Investor of such fact and the limitations and obligations in paragraphs 1 and 2 above shall be automatically removed.
