| 1. | Subscription. |
| (a) | Subject to the terms and conditions of this subscription agreement and letter of investment intent (the “Subscription Agreement”), the undersigned hereby irrevocably subscribes for the Securities for the aggregate purchase price set forth on the signature page hereto, which is payable as indicated above. The purchase price for one share of Class B Convertible Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase eight shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share (the “Warrant”) shall equal $12.00 (the “Per Unit Purchase Price”).

| (b) | The Class B Convertible Preferred Stock will be issued pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the certificate of designation (“Certificate of Designation”) that will be filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada on or before the first closing in connection with the offering of the Securities. The Warrant will be issued pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in the form of warrant (the “Warrant Agreement”). |
| (c) | If the Company accepts this subscription, closing shall take place at such date, time, and location as determined by the Company. In the discretion of the Company, there may be more than one closing in connection with the offering of the Securities. The Securities sold in a subsequent closing, if any, shall be sold at the same Per Unit Purchase Price as the Securities sold in the initial closing. |
| (d) | THE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THERE ARE FURTHER RESTRICTIONS ON THE TRANSFERABILITY OF THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE PURCHASE OF THE SECURITIES INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED ONLY BY PERSONS WHO CAN BEAR THE RISK OF THE LOSS OF THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT. |
| 2. | Subscribers Representations. The undersigned acknowledges and represents as follows: |
| (a) | The undersigned has received, and is familiar with the Company’s Private Placement Memorandum dated February 6, 2015, the Certificate of Designation, the Warrant Agreement, and the publicly available filings by the Company with the Securities Exchange Commission (collectively the “Disclosure Documents”). |
| (b) | The undersigned is in a financial position to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and is able to bear the economic risk and withstand a complete loss of its investment in the Securities. |
| (c) | The undersigned believes it, either alone or with the assistance of its professional advisor, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of reading and interpreting the Disclosure Documents and evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Securities and has the net worth to undertake such risks. |
| (d) | The undersigned has obtained, to the extent it deems necessary, professional advice with respect to the risks inherent in the investment in the Securities, and the suitability of the investment in the Securities in light of its financial condition and investment needs. |

| (g) | The undersigned recognizes that an investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. |
| (h) | The undersigned realizes that (1) the purchase of the Securities and the shares into which they may be exchanged is a long-term investment, (2) the purchaser of the Securities must bear the economic risk of investment for an indefinite period of time because the Securities and any such shares that may be issued upon exercise of the Warrant will not have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and, therefore, cannot be sold unless they are subsequently registered under said Act or an exemption from such registration is available and (3) the transferability of the Securities and such shares is restricted pending effectiveness of such a registration of qualification for an exemption. |
| (i) | The undersigned has been advised that the offering and issuance of Securities and any exchange of the Securities will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or the relevant state securities laws but are being offered and issued pursuant to exemptions from such laws and that the Company’s reliance upon such exemptions is predicated in part on the undersigned’s representations as contained herein. The undersigned represents and warrants that the Securities are being purchased for the undersigned’s own account and for investment and without the intention of reselling or redistributing the same, that it has made no agreement with others regarding any of such Securities and that its financial condition is such that it is not likely that it will be necessary to dispose of any of the Securities in the foreseeable future. |
| (j) | The undersigned represents and warrants that it is a bona fide resident of, and is domiciled in the state indicated on the signature page below under “Address”, and that the Securities are being purchased by it in its name solely for its own beneficial interest and not as nominee for, or on behalf of, or for the beneficial interest of, or with the intention to transfer to, any other person, trust or organization. |
| (k) | The undersigned understands that the representations contained below are made for the purpose of qualifying it is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Regulation D of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act of 1933 and for the purpose of inducing a sale of securities to it.
