Private
Placement Financing
On
October 18, 2024, Caravelle International Group (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) closed a private placement
financing of senior unsecured original issue 25% discount convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) with four investors
(the “Investors”) pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (the “Agreement”).
The
Notes have an aggregate principal amount of $1,752,000 with an aggregate original issuance discount of $438,000 and zero annual interest
rate. Each Note has a 12-month maturity and is convertible into the Company's ordinary shares (the “Ordinary Shares”) at
an initial conversion price equal to $0.10 per share, subject to adjustment as further specified in the Note. The conversion price of
$0.10 reflects a 81.82% discount on the closing price of the Ordinary Shares on NASDAQ on the date of issuance of the Note (the closing
price of the Ordinary Shares on NASDAQ on such date was $0.55). The Company does not have an obligation to register any of the securities
issued in the placement or that are issuable pursuant to the Notes. The Company intends to use the proceeds from this financing for general
working capital purposes. This private placement financing transaction was approved by the board of directors of the Company.

Effect. None of the Actions set forth on Schedule 3.1(h), (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability
of any of the Transaction Documents or the Securities or (ii) could, if there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor any director or officer thereof, is or has been the

order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company or any Subsidiary under the ‘34 Act or the

is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary
information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant in favor of any third
party, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability
with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local
and foreign laws and regulations relating to employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours,
except where the failure to be in compliance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
(j)
Regulatory Permits. The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate
federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports,
except where the failure to possess such permits could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (“Material

of federal, state or other taxes, for which appropriate reserves have been made therefor in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties.

leases with which the Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance.

and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged, including,
but not limited to, directors and officers insurance coverage at least equal to the aggregate Subscription Amount. Neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage
expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business without a significant increase
in cost.
(m)

the Company or any Subsidiary and, to the knowledge of the Company, none of the employees of the Company or any Subsidiary is presently

any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal
property to or from providing for the borrowing of money from or lending of money to, for payment in shares that are not restricted or

the Subsidiaries are in compliance with any and all applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of
the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder that are effective as of the date
hereof and as of the Closing Date. The Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide
reasonable assurance that: (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii)
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability,
(iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded
accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to
any differences. The Company and the Subsidiaries have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in ‘34 Act Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and the Subsidiaries and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the ‘34 Act is recorded, processed, summarized

FOR
VALUE RECEIVED, Caravelle International Group, a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Maker”
or the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of [ ], [ ] company, or its registered assigns (the “Holder”)
the principal sum of US$[ ] (the “Principal”) pursuant to the terms of this Senior Unsecured Convertible Promissory

ARTICLE

1.1 Purchase
Agreement. This Note has been executed and delivered pursuant to, and is issued pursuant to, the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated
as of the Original Issuance Date (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and
between the Maker and the Holder, and is subject to, and incorporates, the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
1.2 Interest.
This Note has been issued with original issue discount and no interest shall accrue hereunder prior to the occurrence of an Event of
Default. From and after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, interest shall accrue hereunder at a rate
equal to 10% per annum and (ii) the highest amount permitted by law (such interest upon an Event of Default shall be referred to as “Interest”
or “Default Interest”), shall compound annually based upon a 360- day year, and shall be due and payable on the first
Trading Day of each month during the continuance of such Event of Default (a “Default Interest Payment Date”). In
the event that such Event of Default is subsequently cured and no other Event of Default then exists (including, without limitation,
for the Company’s failure to pay such Default Interest on the applicable Default Interest Payment Date), the Default Interest shall
cease to accrue hereunder as of the day immediately following the date of such cure; provided that the Interest as calculated
and unpaid at such increased rate during the continuance of such Event of Default shall continue to apply to the extent relating to the
days after the occurrence of such Event of Default through and including the date of such cure of such Event of Default.
1.3 Principal
Payments. The full amount of the Principal shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.
1.4 No
Prepayment. The Maker may not prepay any outstanding amount of the Principal prior to the Maturity Date.
1.5 Payment
on Non-Trading Days. Whenever any payment to be made on this Note shall be due on a day which is not a Trading Day, such payment
may be made on the next succeeding Trading Day.
1.6 Replacement.
Upon receipt of a duly executed Affidavit of Loss and Indemnity Agreement in customary form from the Holder with respect to the loss,
theft or destruction of this Note (or any replacement hereof), or, in the case of a mutilation of this Note, upon surrender and cancellation
of such Note, the Maker shall issue a new Note, of like tenor and amount, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
The Holder shall not be required to post a bond or other security.
1.7 Status
of Note. The obligations of the Maker under this Note shall rank senior to all other existing Indebtedness and equity of the Company.
Upon any Liquidation Event (as hereinafter defined), but subject in all cases to the Purchase Agreement, the Holder will be entitled
to receive, before any distribution or payment is made upon, or set apart with respect to, any Indebtedness of the Maker or any class
of shares of the Maker, an amount equal to the outstanding Principal, Interest and any other sums due. For purposes of this Note, “Liquidation
Event” means a liquidation pursuant to a filing of a petition for bankruptcy under applicable law or any other insolvency or
debtor’s relief, an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of the affairs of the Maker.

Indebtedness or contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto, or any other event shall occur or

to cause, with the giving of notice if required, such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity;
(d) the

domestic) against the Maker or any of its Subsidiaries or action under the laws of any jurisdiction (foreign or domestic) analogous to
any of the foregoing shall be taken with respect to the Maker or any of its Subsidiaries and shall continue undismissed, or unstayed
and in effect for a period of 45 days;

days;
(l) except

the Exchange Act (including but not limited to becoming delinquent in the filing of any report required to be filed under the Exchange
Act including any extension permitted by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) or ceases to be subject to the reporting requirements of
the Exchange Act. For avoidance of doubt, a failure to timely file an Exchange Act report shall be deemed to be a failure to comply in
a material respect;
(m) the

actions or inactions on the part of the Holder and not in any way on the part of the Company;
(p) the
Maker consummates a “going private” transaction and as a result its Common Shares are no longer registered under Sections

of the Company or any Subsidiary, if any such event or circumstance could reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined
in the Purchase Agreement).
2.2 Remedies
Upon an Event of Default.
(a) Upon
the occurrence of any Event of Default that has not been remedied or waived within three (3) Trading Days, provided, however,
that there shall be no cure period for an Event of Default described in Section 2.1(j) or 2.1(k), the Maker shall be obligated to pay
to the Holder the Mandatory Default Amount, which Mandatory Default Amount shall be immediately due and payable to the Holder. In the
event this Note shall be converted whenever an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing without cure, the Holder shall have the
option to convert the Mandatory Default Amount at the Conversion Price.
(b) Upon
the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Maker shall, as promptly as possible but in any event within three (3) Trading Days after
the occurrence of such Event of Default, notify the Holder of the occurrence of such Event of Default, describing the event or factual
situation giving rise to the Event of Default and specifying the relevant subsection or subsections of Section 2.1 hereof under which
such Event of Default has occurred.
(c) Subject
to Section 2.2(a), upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Holder may at any time at its option declare, by written notice to
the Maker, the Mandatory Default Amount due and payable, and thereupon, the same shall be accelerated and so due and payable within two
(2) Trading Days of receipt of such notice. Upon the failure of the Maker to cure an Event of Default within the time permitted by this
Note, or if the Event of Default is not capable of being cured, the remedies provided in this Note shall continue and not be affected
by any cure.
(d) The
provisions of Section 3.2(b) shall also apply upon any Events of Default relating to Conversion Shares in addition to the remedies under
this Section 2.2.
(e) It
is understood and agreed that in addition to other remedies available under this Section 2.2, the Holder shall have the right to make
claims against the executive(s) of the Company who negotiated and executed the Prior Agreement on behalf of the Company, upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default as described in Section 2.1 (v).
(f) Any
Event of Default hereunder may be waived upon the mutual agreement of the Company and the Holder.
ARTICLE
3
3.1 Conversion.
(a) At
any time after the Original Issuance Date, this Note shall be convertible (in whole or in part) at the option of the Holder into such
number of fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares as is determined by dividing (x) that portion of the outstanding Principal and
any accrued and unpaid Interest thereon that the Holder elects to convert (the “Conversion Amount”) by (y) the Applicable
Conversion Price then in effect on the date on which the Holder delivers to the Maker a notice of conversion in substantially the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Conversion Notice”) in accordance with Section 5.1. The Holder shall deliver
this Note to the Maker at the address designated in the Purchase Agreement at such time that this Note is fully converted. With respect
to partial conversions of this Note, the Maker shall keep written records of the amount of this Note converted as of the date of such
conversion (each, a “Conversion Date”).
(b) Conversion
Price. The “Conversion Price” means US$[ ] (the “Fixed Conversion Price”) as such Fixed Conversion
Price may be adjusted as provided herein (as applicable, the "Applicable Conversion Price"); provided, however,
that if any Conversion Price under the foregoing definition results in a fractional amount, the fractional amount shall be rounded down
to the nearest whole cent. For avoidance of doubt, all references in this Note to the Fixed Conversion Price or any other Conversion
Price shall be construed to include adjustments as provided in this Note.
3.2 Delivery
of Conversion Shares.
As
soon as practicable after any conversion or payment of any amount due hereunder in the form of Common Shares in accordance with this
Note, and in any event within the Standard Settlement Period thereafter (such date, the “Share Delivery Date”), the
Maker shall, at its expense, cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as the Holder may direct, a certificate
or certificates evidencing the number of Conversion Shares of fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares to which the Holder shall be
entitled on such conversion or payment, in the applicable denominations based on the applicable conversion or payment, which certificate
or certificates shall be free of restrictive and trading legends (except for any such legends as may be required under the Securities
Act). In lieu of delivering physical certificates for the Common Shares issuable upon any conversion of this Note, provided the Company’s
transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)
DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”) or a similar program, upon request of the Holder, the Company
shall cause the Transfer Agent to deposit such Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note in a DRS account.
(a) Obligation
Absolute. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note in accordance with
the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver
or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or
any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of
any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any
other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion
Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company
may have against the Holder. In the event the Holder of this Note shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding Principal and
any accrued and unpaid Interest thereon (if any) hereof, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder or
anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an
injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Note shall have been sought
and obtained, and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 120% of the outstanding Principal and
any accrued and unpaid Interest thereon (if any) of this Note, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect
until the completion of litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to the Holder to the extent it
obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall issue the Conversion Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon delivery
of a Conversion Notice.
(b) The
Company’s Failure to Timely Convert. Subject to the Company having filed all reports required under the Securities Exchange
Act and the Holder having initiated a sale of the Conversion Shares. If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason, on or
prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date, if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, to issue and deliver to the Holder (or
its designee) a certificate for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder is entitled and register such Conversion Shares on
the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, to credit the balance account of the Holder or
the Holder’s designee with DTC for such number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion
of this Note (as the case may be) (a “Conversion Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the
Holder, the Holder may by notice to the Company (in lieu of receiving such Conversion Shares subject to such Conversion Failure), require
the Company to redeem, in cash, the Conversion Amount in such Conversion Failure at a redemption price equal to the Mandatory Default
Amount with respect to such Conversion Amount in such Conversion Failure. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Share Delivery
Date, the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a
certificate and register such Common Shares on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST,
the Transfer Agent shall fail to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for the number of Common
Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant
to clause (II) below, and if on or after such Share Delivery Date the Holder acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise)
Common Shares corresponding to all or any portion of the number of Common Shares issuable upon such conversion that the Holder is entitled
to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such Conversion Failure or Notice Failure, as applicable
(a “Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two Trading
Days after receipt of the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either: (I) pay cash to the Holder in an amount
equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses,
if any) for the Common Shares so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder)
(the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate (and
to issue such Common Shares) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for
the number of Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder (as the case may be) (and to
issue such Common Shares) shall terminate, or (II) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate
or certificates representing such Common Shares or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable,
with DTC for the number of Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder (as the case may
be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (x) such number of Common
Shares multiplied by (y) the lowest closing sale price of the Common Shares on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date
of the applicable Conversion Notice and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this clause (II) (the “Buy-In
Payment Amount”). Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law
or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s
failure to timely deliver certificates representing Common Shares (or to electronically deliver such Common Shares) upon the conversion
of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(c)
Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Company shall not effect the conversion of any portion of this Note, and the Holder shall
not have the right to convert any portion of this Note pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note and any such conversion shall
be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder together with the
other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the
Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate
number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of Common Shares
held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect
to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude Common Shares which would be issuable upon (A) conversion
of the remaining, non-converted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B)
exercise or conversion of the unexercised or non-converted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation,
any convertible notes or convertible preferred shares or warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject
to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 3.2(d). For purposes of this Section
3.2(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of determining
the number of outstanding Common Shares the Holder may acquire upon the conversion of this Note without exceeding the Maximum Percentage,
the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Common Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form
20-F, Current Report on Form 6-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the
Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of Common Shares outstanding
(the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives a Conversion Notice from the Holder at a time
when the actual number of outstanding Common Shares is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the
Holder in writing of the number of Common Shares then outstanding and, to the extent that such Conversion Notice would otherwise cause
the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 3.2(d), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder
must notify the Company of a reduced number of Common Shares to be purchased pursuant to such Conversion Notice. For any reason
at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one Trading Day confirm orally and in writing or
by electronic mail to the Holder the number of Common Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Common Shares
shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder
and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that
the issuance of Common Shares to the Holder upon conversion of this Note results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being
deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding Common Shares (as determined
under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’
aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void
and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Furthermore, the
Company shall indemnify the Holder in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, if the Holder suffers any damages or claims as a result
of Excess Shares being issued. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such
increase not effective until the 61st day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage
not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective
until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to
the Holder and the other Attribution Parties. For purposes of clarity, the Common Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of this
Note in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes
of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act. No prior inability to convert this Note pursuant to this Section 3.2(d)
shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this Section 3.2(d) with respect to any subsequent determination of convertibility.
The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of
this Section 3. 2(e) to the extent necessary to correct any provision which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial
ownership limitation contained in this Section 3.2(d) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect
to such limitation. The limitation contained in this Section 3.2(d) may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of
this Note.
3.3 Adjustment
of Fixed Conversion Price.
(a) Until
this Note has been paid in full or converted in full, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time-to-time (but
in either case shall not be increased, other than pursuant to a combination) as follows:
(i) Adjustments
for Share Subdivision and Combinations. If the Maker shall at any time or from time-to-time after the Original Issuance Date effect
a share subdivision of the outstanding Common Shares or pays a dividend in Common Shares to holders of its Common Shares, the Fixed Conversion
Price shall be proportionately decreased. If the Maker shall at any time or from time-to-time after the Original Issuance Date, effect
a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Common Shares, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustments
under this Section 3.3(a)(i) shall be effective at the close of business on the date the applicable event occurs. If at any time and
from time-to-time on or after the Original Issuance Date the Maker effects a share consolidation, and the Event Market Price (as defined
below) is less than the Fixed Conversion Price (after giving effect to the adjustment in this Section 3.3(a)(i) above), then on the fifth
(5th) Trading Day immediately following such event, the Fixed Conversion Price on such fifth Trading Day (after giving effect
to the adjustment in Section 3.3(a)(i) above) shall be reduced (but in no event increased) to the Event Market Price. For the avoidance
of doubt, if the adjustment in the immediately preceding sentence would otherwise result in an increase in the Fixed Conversion Price
hereunder, no adjustment shall be made. “Event Market Price” means, with respect to any of the events described above,
the quotient determined by dividing (x) the sum of the VWAP of the Common Shares for each of the five (5) Trading Days following such
event, divided by (y) two (2). All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any share dividend, share subdivision, share
combination, recapitalization or other similar event during such period.
(ii) Adjustments
for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the Common Shares at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date (but
whether before or after the Original Issuance Date) shall be changed to the same or different number of shares or other securities of
any class or classes of shares or other property, whether by reclassification, exchange, substitution or otherwise (other than by way
of a share subdivision or combination of shares or share dividends provided for in Sections 3.3(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) hereof), then,
and in each event, an appropriate revision to the Fixed Conversion Price shall be made and provisions shall be made (by adjustments of
the Fixed Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount
of shares or other securities or other property receivable upon reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, by holders
of the number of Common Shares into which such Note might have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, exchange, substitution
or other change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
(b) Fractional
Shares. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a Common Share upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance
of a fraction of a Common Share, the Company shall round such fraction of a Common Share up to the nearest whole share. If any adjustments
to the Fixed Conversion Price under this Section 3.3 result in a fractional amount, the fractional amount shall be rounded down to the
nearest whole cent.
(c) No
Impairment. The Maker shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Maker, but will at all times in good faith assist in
the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3.3 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in
order to protect the conversion rights of the Holder against impairment. In the event the Holder shall elect to convert this Note as
provided herein, the Maker cannot refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder
has been engaged in any violation of law, violation of an agreement to which the Holder is a party or for any reason whatsoever, unless,
an injunction from a court on prior notice, enjoining conversion of this Note shall have issued and the Maker posts a surety bond for
the benefit of the Holder in an amount equal to 150% of the Principal of the Note which the Holder has elected to convert, which bond
shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to the Holder (as
liquidated damages) in the event it obtains judgment.
(d) Certificates
as to Adjustments. Upon occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Fixed Conversion Price or number of Common Shares issuable
upon conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 3.3, the Maker at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment
in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment and readjustment, showing in
detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Maker shall, upon written request of the Holder, at any time,
furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and readjustments, the Fixed Conversion
Price, and the number of Common Shares and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon
the conversion of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Maker shall not be obligated to deliver a certificate unless such certificate
would reflect an increase or decrease of at least one percent of such adjusted amount.
(e) Issuance
Taxes. The Maker shall pay any and all issuance and other taxes, excluding federal, state or local income taxes, that may be payable
in respect of any issue or delivery of Common Shares on conversion of this Note pursuant thereto; provided, however, that
the Maker shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes resulting from any transfer requested by the Holder in connection with any
such conversion.
(f) Reservation
of Common Shares. The Maker shall at all times while this Note shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized
but unissued Common Shares the Required Minimum of Common Shares (disregarding for this purpose any and all limitations of any kind on
such conversion). The Maker shall, from time-to-time, increase the authorized number of Common Shares or take other effective action
if at any time the unissued number of authorized shares shall not be sufficient to satisfy the Maker’s obligations under this Section
3.3(f).
(g) Regulatory
Compliance. If any Common Shares to be reserved for the purpose of conversion of this Note requires registration or listing with
or approval of any Governmental Authority, national securities exchange or other regulatory body under any federal or state law or regulation
or otherwise before such shares may be validly issued or delivered upon conversion, the Maker shall, at its sole cost and expense, in
good faith and as expeditiously as possible, secure such registration, listing or approval, as the case may be.
3.4 Rights
Upon Fundamental Transaction
(a) Assumption.
The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction, unless (i) the Person (which may be the Company) formed
by, resulting from or surviving any Fundamental Transaction or the Person with which such Fundamental Transaction shall have been entered
into shall succeed to the covenants, stipulations, promises and the agreements contained in this Note. so that the Holder shall have
the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of securities receivable upon such Fundamental Transactions by the
Holder of the number of securities into which this Note could have been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transactions
Merger. This provision shall similarly apply to successive Fundamental Transactions have been entered into (the “Successor Entity”)
assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions
of this Section 3.4(a) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder prior
to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to the Holder in exchange for the Note a security of the Successor Entity
evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Note, including, without limitation, having Principal
and Interest equal to the Principal then outstanding and any accrued and unpaid Interest thereon (if any) of the Note held by the Holder,
having similar conversion rights as the Note and having similar ranking and security to the Note, and satisfactory to the Holder and
(ii) the Successor Entity (including its parent entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock or common shares are
quoted on or listed for trading on any eligible market listed in the definition of Trading Market in the Purchase Agreement. Upon
the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after
the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Note and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company”
or the “Maker” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall
assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor
Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver
to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon conversion or redemption of this Note at any time after the consummation of
such Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the Common Shares issuable upon the conversion or redemption of the Note prior to such Fundamental
Transaction, such shares of the publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its parent entity)
which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Note been converted
immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note), as adjusted in
accordance with the provisions of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may elect, at its sole option, by delivery of
written notice to the Company to waive this Section 3.4(a) to permit the Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Note.
The provisions of this Section 3.4(a) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without
regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note.
(b) Other
Corporate Events. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental
Transaction pursuant to which holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange
for Common Shares (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will
thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note, at the Holder’s option, (i) in addition to the Common Shares
receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled with respect to such Common
Shares had such Common Shares been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking into account any
limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) or (ii) in lieu of the Common Shares otherwise receivable upon such conversion,
such securities or other assets received by the holders of Common Shares in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event
in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Note initially been issued with conversion rights for the
form of such consideration (as opposed to Common Shares) at a conversion price for such consideration commensurate with the Conversion
Price. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance satisfactory to the Holder. The provisions
of this Section 3.4(b) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations
on the conversion or redemption of this Note.
(c) Prepayment
Following a Change of Control. No later than fifteen (15) days following the entry by the Company into an agreement for a Change
of Control but in no event prior to the public announcement of such Change of Control, the Maker shall deliver written notice describing
the entry into such agreement (“Notice of Change of Control”) to the Holder. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt
of a Notice of Change of Control, the Holder may require the Maker to prepay, effective immediately prior to the consummation of such
Change of Control, an amount equal to the sum of (x) the outstanding Principal of this Note and (y) and any accrued and unpaid Interest
thereon (if any) (the “COC Repayment Price”), by delivering written notice thereof (“Notice of Prepayment
at Option of Holder Upon Change of Control”) to the Maker.
(d) Payment

the Holder, the Maker shall deliver the COC Repayment Price to the Holder immediately prior to the consummation of the Change of Control;
provided, that the Holder’s original Note shall have been so delivered to the Maker.
3.5 Purchase
Rights; Inability to Fully Convert.
(a) Holder’s
Option if Maker Cannot Fully Convert. If, upon the Maker’s receipt of a Conversion Notice or as otherwise required under this
Note, including with respect to repayment of Principal and any accrued and unpaid Interest thereon (if any) in Common Shares as permitted
under this Note, the Maker cannot issue Common Shares for any reason, including, without limitation, because the Maker (x) does not have
a sufficient number of Common Shares authorized and available, (y) is precluded from issuing Conversion Shares due to the Maximum Percentage

law or by the rules or regulations of any national securities exchange, interdealer quotation system or other self-regulatory organization
with jurisdiction over the Maker or any of its securities from issuing all of the Common Shares which are to be issued to the Holder
pursuant to this Note, then the Maker shall issue as many Common Shares as it is able to issue and, with respect to the unconverted portion
of this Note or with respect to any Common Shares not timely issued in accordance with this Note, the Holder, solely at Holder’s
option, can elect to:
(i) require
the Maker to prepay that portion of this Note for which the Maker is unable to issue Common Shares or for which Common Shares were not
timely issued (the “Mandatory Prepayment”) at a price equal to the number of Common Shares that the Maker is unable
to issue multiplied by the higher of (A) the Fixed Conversion Price and (B) the VWAP as of the date of the Conversion Notice (the “Mandatory
Prepayment Price”);
(ii) void
its Conversion Notice and retain or have returned, as the case may be, this Note that was to be converted pursuant to the Conversion
Notice (provided that the Holder’s voiding its Conversion Notice shall not affect the Maker’s obligations to make
any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice); or
(iii) defer
issuance of the applicable Conversion Shares until such time as the Maker can legally issue such shares; provided that the Principal
and any accrued and unpaid Interest thereon (if any) underlying such Conversion Shares shall remain outstanding until the delivery of
such Conversion Shares; and provided, further, that if the Holder elects to defer the issuance of the Conversion
Shares, it may exercise its rights under either clause (i) or (ii) above at any time prior to the issuance of the Conversion Shares upon
two Trading Days’ notice to the Maker.

of Fulfilling Holder’s Election. The Maker shall immediately send to the Holder, upon receipt of a Conversion Notice from the
Holder, which cannot be fully satisfied as described in Section 3.5(a) above, a notice of the Maker’s inability to fully satisfy
the Conversion Notice (the “Inability to Fully Convert Notice”). Such Inability to Fully Convert Notice shall indicate
(i) the reason why the Maker is unable to fully satisfy the Holder’s Conversion Notice; and (ii) the amount of this Note which
cannot be converted. The Holder shall notify the Maker of its election pursuant to Section 3.5(a) above by delivering written notice
to the Maker (“Notice in Response to Inability to Convert”).
(c) Payment
of Mandatory Prepayment Price. If the Holder shall elect to have its Note prepaid pursuant to Section 3.5(a)(i) above, the Maker
shall pay the Mandatory Prepayment Price to the Holder within five Trading Days of the Maker’s receipt of the Holder’s Notice
in Response to Inability to Convert; provided that prior to the Maker’s receipt of the Holder’s Notice in Response
to Inability to Convert the Maker has not delivered a notice to the Holder stating, to the satisfaction of the Holder, that the event
or condition resulting in the Mandatory Prepayment has been cured and all Conversion Shares issuable to the Holder can and will be delivered
to the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note. If the Maker shall fail to pay the applicable Mandatory Prepayment Price to
the Holder on the date that is two Trading Days following the Maker’s receipt of the Holder’s Notice in Response to Inability
to Convert, in addition to any remedy the Holder may have under this Note and the Purchase Agreement, such unpaid amount shall bear interest
at the rate of 2% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Until the full Mandatory Prepayment Price is paid in full
to the Holder, the Holder may (i) void the Mandatory Prepayment with respect to that portion of the Note for which the full Mandatory
Prepayment Price has not been paid and (ii) receive back such Note.
3.6 No
Rights as Shareholder. Nothing contained in this Note shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder, prior to the conversion of
this Note, the right to vote or to receive dividends or to consent or to receive notice as a shareholder of the Company in respect of
any meeting of shareholders for the election of directors of the Maker or of any other matter, or any other rights as a shareholder of
the Maker.
