REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR QUALIFICATION FOR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES ARE “PENNY STOCK” UNDER THE RULES OF SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE

SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated April 5, 2021 (“Effective Date”), is made by Capstone Companies, Inc., a
Florida corporation, (“Company”) and ____________________, a limited liability company formed under the laws of ________________, (“Investor”). Company and Investor
may be referred to individually as a “party” and collectively, as the “parties.”
RECITALS
A. The Company and the Investor is executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon the exemption from securities
registration afforded by the provisions of Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act (as defined below), and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) as promulgated by the SEC (as defined below) under the 1933 Act.
B. The Investor wishes to and has agreed to purchase from the Company and the Company wishes to sell and issue to the Investor, upon
the terms and subject to the conditions stated in this Agreement, the shares (as set forth below) (the “Purchase Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”).
C. Contemporaneously with the sale of the Shares, the parties will execute and deliver a Registration Rights Agreement, in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will agree to provide certain piggyback registration rights in respect of the Purchase Shares under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws.
D. The net proceeds from the sale of the Purchase Shares will be used to purchase product inventory, including components, and
general working capital. Company’s revenues from operations and cash reserves are insufficient to pay for product inventory and cover basic operating costs.
E. The per share purchase price for the Purchase Shares was negotiated at arm’s length and based on the average closing price of the
Shares on The OTC Markets Group, Inc. QB Venture Market (“OTCQB”) from. January 14, 2021 through February 26, 2021, less a 33% discount. The pricing of the Purchase Shares reflects the declining revenues and overall financial condition of the
Company as well as the fact that the Connected Surfaces Smart Mirror product line, which is designed to be the primary revenue source of the Company in 2021, was just launched in late February 2021 and whether that new product line will stabilize the

essential to stabilizing the business and financial condition of the Company and providing a revenue stream to replace the LED lighting products. The Company requires adequate and affordable debt and equity funding to be able to transition to a new
product line and a new revenue source. The Purchase Shares are “penny stock” under SEC rules and are subject to the burdens and limitations imposed on such securities by regulators, stock transfer agents and broker-dealers. The Investor has had a
reasonable opportunity to discuss all disclosures made to the Investor by the Company and all disclosures that publicly available to Investor from public sources.

their entirety:
5.1 Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and to own or lease its properties. The Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign
corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership or leasing of property makes such qualification or leasing necessary unless the failure to so qualify has not had and would not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company’s subsidiaries are set forth on Exhibit 21.1 to its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and the Company owns 100% of the outstanding equity of all such subsidiaries. The Company’s
subsidiaries are duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of their jurisdiction of incorporation and have all requisite power and authority to carry on their business as now conducted and to own or lease their properties.
The Company’s subsidiaries are duly qualified to do business as foreign corporations and are in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of their business or their ownership or leasing of property makes such qualification or leasing
necessary unless the failure to so qualify has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

for, and no further action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders is necessary for, (i) the authorization, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, (ii) the authorization of the performance of all obligations

against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability, relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general
equitable principles.
5.3 Capitalization. The capitalization of the Company as of the date hereof is as set forth on Schedule 5.3. All of the issued and
outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable; none of such shares were issued in violation of any preemptive rights; and such shares were issued in compliance in
all material respects with applicable state and federal securities law and any rights of third parties. No person is entitled to preemptive or similar statutory or contractual rights with respect to the issuance by the Company of any securities of
the Company, including, without limitation, the Purchase Shares. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.3, there are no outstanding warrants, options, convertible securities or other rights, agreements or arrangements of any character under which the
Company is or may be obligated to issue any equity securities of any kind, except as contemplated by this Agreement. There are no voting agreements, buy-sell agreements, option or right of first purchase agreements or other similar agreements among
the Company and any of the securityholders of the Company relating to the securities of the Company held by them. Except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, no person has the right to require the Company to register any securities of
the Company under the 1933 Act, whether on a demand basis or in connection with the registration of securities of the Company for its own account or for the account of any other Person.
The issuance and sale of the Purchase Shares hereunder will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other
securities to any other person (other than the Investor) and will not result in the adjustment of the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of any outstanding security. The Company does not have outstanding stockholder purchase rights or
“poison pill” or any similar arrangement in effect giving any person the right to purchase any equity interest in the Company upon the occurrence of certain events.
5.4 Valid Issuance. The Shares have been duly and validly authorized and, when issued and paid for pursuant to this Agreement, will
be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and shall be free and clear of all encumbrances and restrictions (other than those created by the Investor), except for restrictions on transfer set forth in the Transaction Documents or imposed by
applicable securities laws.
5.5 Consents. Subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Investor set forth in Section 6 hereof, the execution,
delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents and the offer, issuance and sale of the Purchase Shares require no consent of, action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Person, governmental body, agency, or official other
than (a) filings that have been made pursuant to applicable state securities laws, (b) post-sale filings pursuant to applicable state and federal securities laws, (c) filings pursuant to the rules and regulations of OTCQB and (d) filing of the
registration statement required to be filed by the Registration Rights Agreement, each of which the Company has filed or undertakes to file within the applicable time. Subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Investor set
forth in Section 6 hereof, the Company has taken all action necessary to exempt (i) the issuance and sale of the Purchase Shares and (ii) the other transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents from the provisions of any stockholder rights
plan or other “poison pill” arrangement, any anti-takeover, business combination or control share law or statute binding on the Company or to which the Company or any of its assets and properties is subject that is or could reasonably be expected to
become applicable to the Investor as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation, the issuance of the Purchase Shares and the ownership, disposition or voting of the Purchase Shares by the Investor or the exercise
of any right granted to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
5.6 Use of Proceeds. The net proceeds of the sale of the Shares hereunder shall be used by the Company for working capital and
general corporate purposes.
5.7 No Material Adverse Change. The parties agree, understand and acknowledge that the Coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic has
significantly, adversely impacted the business and financial condition of the Company in fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and that adverse impact has continued in the first fiscal quarter of fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The public
auditors of the Company have issued a going concern notice in the auditor letter for certain fiscal quarters in fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Investor is also aware of the adverse impact of the maturation of the Company’s traditional core
product line in LED lighting for consumers, and resulting declining revenues from that traditional core product line in fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and continuing into fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The Company launched a new Connected
Surfaces Smart Mirror product line in late February 2021, but the potential of this new product line as a replacement core product line for the declining LED lighting product line is uncertain as of the Effective Date. There is insufficient
information to project the potential of this new product line in terms of revenues and whether sales from the new product line will remedy the business and financial condition of the Company. Further, the Company has transitioned some of its
original product manufacturing sources from China to Thailand to address disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in China, specifically, on Company’s Chinese OEM’s, and to guard against potential adverse impact from ongoing Chinese-U.S. trade and
tariff disputes. Establishing a new OEM in a new country is inherently prone to delays in production and establishment of efficient product production and the transition delayed launch of new Connected Surfaces Smart Mirror. Due to these factors,
the Company’s future busines and financial performance and condition is highly uncertain. INVESTMENT IN THE PURCHASE SHARES IS HIGHLY RISKY AND ONLY
SUITABLE TO INVESTORS WHO CAN WITHSTAND THE LOSS OF THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT AND DO NOT REQUIRE LIQUIDITY OR REQUIRE APPRECIATION IN INVESTMENT. Investor has reviewed the Company’s SEC filings, including the 2020 10-K. Since September 30,
2020, except as identified and described in the SEC Filings filed at least one Trading Day prior to the Closing Date and except as known to Investor pursuant to their due diligence review of the Company’s business and financial condition, there has
not been:
(i) any declaration or payment by the Company of any dividend, or any authorization or payment by the Company of any distribution, on
any of the capital stock of the Company, or any redemption or repurchase by the Company of any securities of the Company;
(ii) any material damage, destruction or loss, whether or not covered by insurance, to any assets or properties of the Company;
(iii) any waiver, not in the ordinary course of business, by the Company of a material right or of a material debt owed to it;
(iv) any satisfaction or discharge of any lien, claim or encumbrance or payment of any obligation by the Company, except in the
ordinary course of business and which is not material to the assets, properties, financial condition, operating results or business of the Company (as such business is presently conducted);
(v) any change or amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or material change to any material contract or
arrangement by which the Company is bound or to which any of its assets or properties is subject;
(vii) any material labor difficulties or, to the Company’s Knowledge, labor union organizing activities with respect to employees of
the Company, except for COVID-19 pandemic forcing or causing Company personnel to work remotely and outside of the Company offices. The inability of Company personnel to work as a group in Company offices and to travel has caused disruption in
normal operating efficiencies and business development work that has contributed to the deleterious economic impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the general economy, the market for Company products and Company operations;
(vii) any material transaction entered into by the Company other than in the ordinary course of business or as disclosed in Company
SEC filings; and
(ix) the loss of the services of any key employee, or material change in the composition or duties of the senior management of the
Company.
5.8 SEC Filings. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedules hereto, the Company has timely filed all reports, schedules, forms,
statements and other documents required to be filed by the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, preceding the date hereof (collectively, the “SEC Filings”). At the time of filing thereof,

within fifteen days of the sale of Purchase Shares hereunder. As of their respective dates, none of the SEC filings, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All material agreements to which the Company or any subsidiary is a party or to which the property or assets of the
Company or any subsidiary are subject are included as part of or specifically identified in the SEC Filings.
5.9 No Conflict, Breach, Violation or Default. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company
and the issuance and sale of the Purchase Shares in accordance with the provisions thereof will not, except (solely in the case of clauses (i)(b) and (ii)) for such violations, conflicts or defaults as would not reasonably be expected, individually
or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of (a) any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or the Company’s Bylaws,
both as in effect on the date hereof (true and complete copies of which have been made available to the Investor through the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system (the “EDGAR system”)), or (b) assuming the accuracy of the
representations and warranties in Section 6, any applicable statute, rule, regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or its subsidiaries, or any of their assets or
properties, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, result in the creation of any lien, encumbrance or other adverse claim upon any of the properties or
assets of the Company or its subsidiaries or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any Material Contract. This Section does not relate to matters with
respect to tax status, which are the subject of Section 5.10, employee relations and labor matters, which are the subject of Section 5.13, or environmental laws, which are the subject of Section 5.15.
5.10 Tax Matters. The Company and its subsidiaries have timely prepared and filed all material tax returns required to have been
filed by them with all appropriate governmental agencies and timely paid all material taxes shown thereon or otherwise owed by them. There are no material unpaid assessments against the Company nor, to the Company’s Knowledge, any audits by any
federal, state or local taxing authority. All material taxes that the Company is required to withhold or to collect for payment have been duly withheld and collected and paid to the proper governmental entity or third party when due. There are no tax
liens pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened against the Company or any of its assets or property. With the exception of agreements or other arrangements that are not primarily related to taxes entered into in the ordinary course of
business, there are no outstanding tax sharing agreements or other such arrangements between the Company and any other corporation or entity (other than a subsidiary of the Company).
5.11 Title to Properties. The Company and its subsidiaries do not own or have any ownership interest in real property.
5.12 Certificates, Authorities and Permits. The Company possesses adequate certificates, authorities or permits issued by appropriate
governmental agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business now operated by it, except where failure to so possess would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has not
received any written notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authority or permit that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, individually or in the aggregate, on the Company.
5.13 Labor Matters. The Company is not party to or bound by any collective bargaining agreements or other agreements with labor
organizations. To the Company’s Knowledge, the Company has not violated in any material respect any laws, regulations, orders or contract terms affecting the collective bargaining rights of employees or labor organizations, or any laws, regulations
or orders affecting employment discrimination, equal opportunity employment, or employees’ health, safety, welfare, wages and hours.
5.14 Intellectual Property. The Company and its subsidiaries own, possess, license or have other rights to use, all patents, patent
applications, trade and service marks, trade and service mark registrations, trade names, copyrights, licenses, inventions, trade secrets, technology, know-how and other intellectual property (collectively, the “Intellectual Property”) necessary for
the conduct of the Company’s business in all material respects as now conducted or as proposed in the SEC Filings to be conducted; and (a) there are no rights of third parties to any such Intellectual Property, including no liens, security interests
or other encumbrances; (b) to the Company’s Knowledge, there is no material infringement by third parties of any such Intellectual Property; (c) there is no pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by
others challenging the Company’s rights in or to any such Intellectual Property; (d) such Intellectual Property that is described in the SEC Filings has not been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in
part; (e) there is no pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others challenging the validity or scope of any such Intellectual Property that is owned or licensed by the Company, including
interferences, oppositions, reexaminations or government proceedings; (f) there is no pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others that the Company infringes, misappropriates, or otherwise violates
any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary rights of others; and (g) to the Company’s Knowledge, each key employee of the Company and each Company employee involved with the development of Intellectual Property has entered
into an invention assignment agreement with the Company.
5.15 Environmental Matters. The Company is not in violation of any statute, rule, regulation, decision or order of any governmental
agency or body or any court, domestic or foreign, relating to the use, disposal or release of hazardous or toxic substances or relating to the protection or restoration of the environment or human exposure to hazardous or toxic substances
(collectively, “Environmental Laws”), has not released any hazardous substances regulated by Environmental Law onto any real property that it owns or operates and has not received any written notice or claim it is liable for any off-site disposal or
contamination pursuant to any Environmental Laws, which violation, release, notice, claim, or liability would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, and to the Company’s Knowledge, there is no
pending or threatened investigation that would reasonably be expected to lead to such a claim. Company products are made by foreign OEM’s and this Section 5.15 does not cover or constitute a representation about those OEM’s.
5.16 Legal Proceedings. There are no legal, governmental or regulatory investigations, actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to
the Company’s Knowledge, threatened to which the Company or its subsidiaries are a party or to which any property of the Company or its subsidiaries are the subject that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. The parties agree and acknowledge that the Company’s common stock has experienced significant increase in trading activity and market price in 2021 and that these circumstances cause increased awareness of the Company and
trading in its common stock among regulators, plaintiffs’ class action law firms and investors – all of which enhances the chances of regulatory scrutiny and legal proceedings.
5.17 Financial Statements. The financial statements included in each SEC Filing (including the 2020 10-K) comply in all material
respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing (or to the extent corrected by a subsequent restatement) and present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position of the Company as of the dates shown and its consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown, subject in the case of unaudited financial statements to normal, immaterial year-end audit
adjustments, and such consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”) (except as may be disclosed
therein or in the notes thereto, and except that the unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and, in the case of quarterly financial statements, except as permitted by Form 10-Q under the 1934 Act). Except as
set forth in the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Filings filed prior to the date hereof, the Company has not incurred any liabilities, contingent or otherwise, except those incurred in the ordinary course of business,
consistent (as to amount and nature) with past practices since the date of such financial statements.
5.18 Insurance Coverage. The Company maintains in full force and effect insurance coverage that is customary for comparably situated
companies for the business being conducted and properties owned or leased by the Company, and the Company reasonably believes such insurance coverage to be adequate against all casualty claims against which it is customary for comparably situated
companies to insure.
5.19 Compliance with OTQB Continued Listing Requirements. The Company is in compliance with applicable OTCQB continued listing
requirements. There are no proceedings pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened against the Company relating to the continued listing of the Common Stock on OTCQB and the Company has not received any notice of, nor to the Company’s
Knowledge is there any reasonable basis for, the delisting of the Common Stock from OTCQB. The significant increase in the trading of the Company’s Common Stock in 2021 increases the likelihood of unauthorized stock promotion by third parties
seeking to illegally manipulate the market price of the Common Stock. Such stock promotion can cause regulatory scrutiny, including The OTC Markets Group, Inc. demanding certain public disclosures attesting to the company having no involvement in
third party stock promotion. Such demand is issued solely on the basis of knowledge of any illegal or improper third-party stock promotion efforts.
5.20 Brokers and Finders. Any obligation to pay fees in respect with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement is governed
by a separate agreement by the Company and Wilmington Capital Securities LLC.
5.21 No Directed Selling Efforts or General Solicitation. Neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf has conducted any
general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation D) in connection with the offer or sale of any of the Purchase Shares.
5.22 No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries nor any person acting on their behalf has, directly or
indirectly, made any offers or sales of any Company security or solicited any offers to buy any Company security, under circumstances that would adversely affect reliance by the Company on Section 4(a)(2) and Regulation D for the exemption from
registration for the transactions contemplated hereby or would require registration of the Purchase Shares under the 1933 Act, nor will the Company take any action or steps that would adversely affect reliance by the Company on Section 4(a)(2) and
Regulation D for the exemption from registration for the transactions contemplated hereby or require registration of the Purchase Shares under the 1933 Act.
5.23 Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor set forth in Section 6, the offer
and sale of the Purchase Shares to the Investor as contemplated hereby is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. The issuance and sale of the Purchase Shares does not contravene the rules and regulations of OTCQB.
5.24 Questionable Payments. Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries nor, to the Company’s Knowledge, any of their current or former
directors, officers, employees, agents or other Persons acting on behalf of the Company or its subsidiaries, has on behalf of the Company or its subsidiaries in connection with their business: (a) used any corporate funds for unlawful contributions,
gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political activity; (b) made any direct or indirect unlawful payments to any governmental officials or employees from corporate funds; (c) established or maintained any unlawful or
unrecorded fund of corporate monies or other assets which is in violation of law; (d) made any false or fictitious entries on the books and records of the Company; or (e) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other
unlawful payment of any nature.
5.25 Transactions with Affiliates. Other than as disclosed in the SEC Filings, none of the executive officers or directors of the
Company and, to the Company’s Knowledge, none of the employees of the Company is presently a party to any transaction with the Company (other than as holders of stock options, restricted stock units, warrants and/or restricted stock, and for services
as employees, officers and directors), including 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, or otherwise requiring payments to or from
any officer, director or such employee or, to the Company’s Knowledge, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.
5.26 Internal Controls. The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and
15d-15 under the 1934 Act), which (a) are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its subsidiaries, is made known to the Company’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer by others
within those entities; (b) have been evaluated by management of the Company for effectiveness as of the end of the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter; and (c) are effective in all material respects to perform the functions for which they were
established. Since the end of the Company’s most recent audited fiscal year, there have been no material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated) and no change in the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting that has materially affected, or would reasonably be expected to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company is not aware of any change in its internal controls over financial
reporting that has occurred during its most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or would reasonably be expected to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Company’s projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial
reporting as to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. A material weakness is a deficiency, or
a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a
timely basis. Further, the Company’s business and financial condition have been significantly, adversely impacted by COVID-19 pandemic and the maturation and declining sales of the LED lighting products and the launch of the new Connected Surfaces
Smart Mirrors, as a new product line of the Company, after fiscal year 2020. COVID-19 pandemic contributed to declining sales of LED lighting products in 2020 and 2021 and launch of a replacement product line after fiscal year 2020.
5.27 Disclosures. Neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf has provided the Investor or their agents or counsel with
any information that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to constitute material nonpublic information concerning the Company or its subsidiaries as of the Effective Date, other than with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, which
will be disclosed in the Press Release (as defined below). The SEC Filings do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company understands and confirms that the Investor will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.
5.28 Required Filings. Except for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or in the Disclosure Schedules hereto, including
the acquisition of the Purchase Shares contemplated hereby, no event or circumstance has occurred or information exists with respect to the Company or its business, properties, operations or financial condition, which, under applicable law, rule or
regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed as of the Closing Date.
5.29 Investment Company. The Company is not required to be registered as, and immediately following the Closing will not be required
to register as, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
5.30 Regulation M Compliance. The Company has not, and to its knowledge no one acting on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or
indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Shares, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or paid any compensation for
soliciting purchases of, any of the Shares, or (iii) paid or agreed to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of the Company, other than, in the case of clauses (ii).
5.31 Anti-Bribery and Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Each of the Company, its subsidiaries and any of their respective officers,
directors, supervisors, managers, agents, or employees are and have at all times been in compliance with and its participation in the offering will not violate: (A) anti-bribery laws, including but not limited to, any applicable law, rule, or
regulation of any locality, including but not limited to any law, rule, or regulation promulgated to implement the OECD Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions, signed December 17, 1997,
including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, or any other law, rule or regulation of similar purposes and scope or (B) anti-money laundering laws, including, but not limited to, applicable federal,
state, international, foreign or other laws, regulations or government guidance regarding anti-money laundering, including, without limitation, Title 18 US. Code sections 1956 and 1957, the Patriot Act, the Bank Secrecy Act, and international
anti-money laundering principles or procedures by an intergovernmental group or organization, such as the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering, of which the United States is a member and with which designation the United States
representative to the group or organization continues to concur, all as amended, and any Executive order, directive, or regulation pursuant to the authority of any of the foregoing, or any orders or licenses issued thereunder.
5.32 No Bad Actors. No “bad actor” disqualifying event described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i)-(viii) of the 1933 Act (a “Disqualification
Event”) is applicable to the Company or, to the Company’s Knowledge, any Company Covered Person, except for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii–iv) or (d)(3) is applicable. There are no matters to be disclosed by the Company under
Rule 506(e) as of the Closing Date.
5.33. No Additional Agreements. The Company has no other agreements or understandings (including, without limitation, side letters)
with any Investor to purchase the Purchase Shares on terms more favorable to such Investor than as set forth herein.
5.34 Shell Company Status. The Company is not a “shell company” as of the Effective Date. The Company was a former shell company
under SEC Rule 144(i)(1) prior to 2005. As a former shell company, restricted shares of Common Stock may not have restrictive legends permanently removed without registration under the 1933 Act or sale under Rule 144 to a third-party purchaser.
5.35 Investor Representations. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Investor’s representations contained in Section 6 below
shall not modify, amend or affect any such Investor’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations and warranties contained in any other Transaction Document or any other document or

Act only in certain limited circumstances.
6.7 Legends. It is understood that, except as provided below, certificates evidencing the Purchase Shares will bear the following or

portions of such Investor’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Purchase Shares covered by this

connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with
respect to the identification of the availability of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future. Investor agrees, understands and acknowledges that trading in the Purchase Shares
or other shares of Common Stock based on non-public material information is a violation of federal and state anti-insider and fraud laws and regulations.

of any other country, has reviewed, approved, passed upon, or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Company or the purchase of the Purchase Shares.

Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Investor or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both
would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Investor is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule,
regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to such Investor, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or
in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Investor to perform its obligations hereunder.
6.16 No “Bad Actor” Disqualification Events. Investor is not subject to any Disqualification Event, except for Disqualification

connection therewith. Parties agree and acknowledge that removal of restrictive legends is controlled by the stock transfer agent in its sole discretion.
(c) Subject to receipt from the Investor by the Company and the Transfer Agent of customary representations and other documentation
reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Transfer Agent in connection therewith. upon the earliest of such time as the Purchase Shares (i) have been registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) have been
sold pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) are eligible for resale under Rule 144(b)(1) or any successor provision (such earliest date, the “Effective Date”), the Company shall, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.2(b) and within two (2)
Trading Days of any request therefor from an Investor accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable documentation referred to above, (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall make a new,
unlegended entry for such book entry shares, except that, with respect to (iii) above, any shares not sold under Rule 144 will have restrictive legends re-imposed after 90 days from the date of the initial lifting of legends (or such shorter period
as required or permitted by Transfer Agent); and (B) cause its legal counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under the 1933 Act if required by
the Transfer Agent to effect the lifting of the legend (subject to re-imposition of restrictive legends on shares not sold under (iii) above after a 90-day lift-legend period, or shorter period, required or permitted by Company’s stock transfer
agent) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Any shares subject to legend removal under this Section 7 may be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Investor by crediting the account of the Investor’s prime broker with the DTC System
as directed by such Investor. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent and all DTC fees associated with such issuance. The Company is a former shell company and, under the current prevailing interpretation of Rule 144, any
shares, whether held by affiliates or non-affiliates of the Company, will not have the legends permanently removed by a stock transfer agent unless registered under the Securities Act or sold to and owned by a third-party purchaser of the shares in a
sale in accordance with Rule 144.
7.3 Transfer Restrictions. Investor agrees with the Company that the Investor will only sell any Purchase Shares pursuant to either
an effective registration requirements of the 1933 Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Purchase Shares are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance
with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Purchase Shares as set forth in this Section 7.3 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this
understanding.

Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the 1933 Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Purchase Shares in a
manner that would require the registration under the 1933 Act of the sale of the Purchase Shares to the Investor, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Purchase Shares for purposes of the rules and regulations of any trading
market such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.
7.5 Fees. The Company shall be responsible for the payment of any placement agent’s fees, financial advisory fees, or broker’s
commissions (other than for Persons engaged by an Investor or the Investor) relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby.

of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of the Investor in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading

to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to this Agreement. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate

any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents, and will reimburse any indemnitee for all such amounts as they are incurred by indemnitee solely to
the extent such amounts have been finally judicially determined not to have resulted from indemnitee’s fraud or willful misconduct or violation of law. The Investor will indemnify the Company for any Losses incurred by the Investor misrepresenting

has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based
upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that the party elects to employ
separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give written
notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or
litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties.

unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. No indemnified party will, except with the consent of the indemnifying party, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement.

other investor, and no investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of Investor to purchase Purchase Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents
has been made by the Investor independently of any other investor. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investor as a partnership, an association,
a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investor is in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Investor
acknowledges that no other person has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that the Investor will be acting as agent of a person in connection with monitoring its investment in the Purchase Shares
or enforcing his rights under the Transaction Documents. Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce his or its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction
Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any person to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that the Investor has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of
closing a transaction with multiple investors and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Investor. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement is between the Company and the Investor,
solely, and not between the Company and any other investors collectively.

applicable.”

THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
(“Agreement”), dated and effective as of April 5, 2021, is made by Capstone Companies, Inc., a Florida corporation, (“Company”) and stockholder listed in Exhibit A hereto (“Stockholder”). The Company and Stockholder may be referred to individually as a “party” and collectively as the “parties.”
Background:
A. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Securities

B. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
the Company has agreed to grant certain registration rights to Stockholder with
respect to its Purchase Shares.
In consideration of the promises, mutual covenants and conditions herein contained, and of other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

(i) “Registration Statement” means any registration statement described in Sections 2.1 or 2.2 of this Agreement.
2. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
2.1. DEMAND REGISTRATION. No demand registration rights are granted under this Agreement or otherwise.
2.2. PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION. If and only if the
Company proposes to file a registration statement under the 1933 Act with respect to an offering of Common Stock or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Common Stock, whether or not for sale for its own account (other than
a registration statement (i) on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any successor forms thereto or (ii) filed to effectuate an exchange offer or any employee benefit or dividend reinvestment plan), in a manner that would permit registration of the Registrable
Securities for sale for cash to the public under the 1933 Act, then the Company shall give prompt written notice of such filing, which notice shall be given, no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the filing date (the “Piggyback Notice”) to
the Stockholder of Registrable Securities. The Piggyback Notice shall offer of the Stockholder the opportunity to include (or cause to be included) in such registration statement the number of shares of Registrable Securities as Stockholder may
request (each, a “Piggyback Registration Statement”). Subject to Section 2.2(b) below, the Company shall include in each Piggyback Registration Statement all Registrable
Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein (each, a “Piggyback Request”) within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Piggyback Notice. The Company shall not be required to maintain the
effectiveness of a Piggyback Registration Statement beyond the earlier of (x) 120 days after the effective date thereof and (y) consummation of the distribution by the Stockholder of the Registrable Securities included in such registration
statement. The Company may withdraw a Piggyback Registration Statement at any time prior to any sales being made pursuant to the Piggyback Registration Statement without incurring any liability to the Stockholder. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause a Piggyback Registration Statement filed under this Agreement to be declared effective under the 1933 Act
as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and shall use its best efforts to keep the Piggyback Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date that all Registrable Securities covered by the Piggyback
Registration Statement, subject to SEC approval of post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement to maintain the effectiveness of the Piggyback Registration Statement, have been sold thereunder or pursuant to Rule 144. There is no
penalty or similar charge owed by, and no liquidated damages recoverable against, the Company by Stockholder or a Stockholder in the event that Company cannot maintain the effectiveness of the Piggyback Registration Statement in accordance with
this Section 2.2.
(b) If any of the securities to be registered pursuant to the registration giving rise to the rights under
this Section 2.2 are to be sold in an underwritten registered securities offering under the 1933 Act (“Underwritten Offering”), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed
Underwritten Offering to permit Stockholder of Registrable Securities who has timely submitted a Piggyback Request in connection with such offering to include in such offering all Registrable Securities included in Stockholder’s Piggyback Request on
the same terms and subject to the same conditions as any other shares of capital stock, if any, of the Company included in the Underwritten Offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of such offering advise
the Company in writing that in its or their good faith opinion the number of securities exceeds the number of securities which can be sold in such offering in light of market conditions or is such so as to adversely affect the success of such
offering, the Company will include in such Underwritten Offering only such number of securities that can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, which securities will be so included in the following order of priority:
(i) first, the securities proposed to be sold by the Company for its own account and (ii) second, the Registrable Securities of the Stockholder and any other persons with piggyback registration rights who has the right to participate and that has
requested to participate in such offering, allocated pro rata among the selling shareholders according to the total amount of securities entitled
to be included therein owned by each selling shareholder and its Affiliates (other than the Company) or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling shareholders.
3. FURTHER OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY AFTER REGISTRATION.
3.1. BLUE SKY COMPLIANCE. The Company shall, as soon as
reasonably possible after the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, use its
best efforts to register and qualify the Registrable Shares covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions
as shall be reasonably requested by the Stockholder, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states
or jurisdictions unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the 1933 Act. Further, the parties agree and acknowledge that if the Company does not satisfy applicable Blue Sky standards,
including any applicable NASAA guidelines concerning going concern or financial viability, that approval of the Registration Statement in merit review states may not be attainable or possible.
3.2. FURNISHING OF PROSPECTUS. With respect to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2.1, the Company shall furnish to the
Stockholder copies of any preliminary prospectus and, as soon as reasonably possible after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, furnish to the Stockholder such numbers of copies of a final prospectus in conformity with the requirements of the 1933 Act (“Final Prospectus”), and such other documents as the Stockholder
may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the resale or other disposition of Registrable Shares owned by it.
3.3. AMENDMENTS. With respect to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement, and, subject to Section 4.1 of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments to the Registration Statement and amendments or supplements to the prospectus contained therein as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and such Registration Statement and prospectus accurate and complete for the entire period for which the Registration Statement remains effective.
3.4. NOTICES. The Company shall:
(a) Notify the Stockholder, promptly after it shall
receive notice thereof, of the date and time when any Registration Statement and
each post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
(b) Notify the Stockholder promptly of any request by
the SEC for the amending or supplementing of any Registration Statement or
prospectus or for additional information;
(c) Notify the Stockholder, at any time when a
prospectus relating to the Registrable Shares is required to be delivered under
the Securities Act, of any event which would cause any such prospectus or any other prospectus as then in effect to include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, subject to Section 4.1, promptly prepare and file with the SEC, and promptly notify the Stockholder of the filing of, such amendments or
supplements to any Registration Statement or prospectus as may be necessary to
correct any such statements or omissions; and
(d) Notify Stockholder, promptly after it shall receive
notice of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and, subject to Section 4.1, promptly use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if
such stop order should be issued.
4. CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS ON REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The registration rights granted by this Agreement are subject to the following additional conditions and limitations:
4.1. DELAYS AND SUSPENSION. The Company may delay the
filing of or suspend or delay the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, if
the Company shall furnish to the Stockholder a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its shareholders
for such a registration statement to be filed or declared effective or for an
effective registration statement not to be suspended. In such event, the
Company's obligation under this Agreement to file a registration statement, seek effectiveness of a registration statement or keep such registration statement effective shall be deferred. If the Company suspends the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, the Company will promptly deliver notice to the Stockholder of such suspension and will again deliver notice to
the Stockholder when such suspension is no longer necessary. The duration for which the Company is required to keep a Registration Statement effective shall be extended by an additional number of days equal to the length of any suspension period.
4.2. AMENDED OR SUPPLEMENTED PROSPECTUS. The Stockholder
agree that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company described in Section 4.1 hereof that suspends an effective registration statement, the Stockholder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Shares until such Stockholder's receipt of copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus from the Company, or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be
resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in the prospectus. If so directed by the Company, the Stockholder will deliver to the Company all copies of the prospectus covering such Registrable Shares current at the time of receipt of such notice of suspension.
5. INDEMNIFICATION.
5.1. The Company will indemnify the Stockholder, any of
Stockholder’s officers, directors and partners, agents and each person controlling the Stockholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, against all
expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, (commenced or threatened), arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged
untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement,
prospectus, or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, and any state securities laws or any rule, regulation or qualification promulgated thereunder, and the Company will reimburse the Stockholder, any
Stockholder’s officers, directors, and partners, legal counsel, agents and each person controlling the Stockholder, each such underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred,
in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or
expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Stockholder, controlling person or
underwriter expressly for use therein. The foregoing indemnity is subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any such untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in a preliminary prospectus on file
with the SEC at the time the registration statement becomes effective or the
amended prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b), as amended from time to time, such indemnity shall not inure to the benefit of: (a) the Stockholder (i) if a copy of the Final Prospectus was not furnished by the Stockholder to the
person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action as required by the 1933 Act and such Final Prospectus would have cured the defect giving rise to the loss, liability, claim or damage or (ii) to the extent
that such untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission is made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Stockholder expressly for use therein, or (b) any underwriter (i)
if a copy of the Final Prospectus was not furnished to the person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action as required by the 1933 Act and the Final Prospectus would have cured the defect giving rise to the
loss, liability, claim or damage or (ii) to the extent that such untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission is made in reliance on and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the underwriter
for use therein.
5.2. The Stockholder will, if Registrable Shares held by the Stockholder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of
its directors and officers, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof),
including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation (commenced or threatened), arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, incident to such registration, qualification or compliance, or any
omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, severally, and not
jointly, will reimburse the Company, such directors, officers, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability
or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company
by the Stockholder expressly for use therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of the Stockholder under this Section 5 shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds received by the Stockholder from the sale of shares in such registration.
5.3. Each party entitled to indemnification under this
Section 5 shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense
of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably
be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its or his
obligations under this Agreement, unless the failure to give such notice is
materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such action, and provided further that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its or his own counsel, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel
retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any
such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to
such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
5.4. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
Indemnified Party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the
other in connection with the violations that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by a
court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by the Stockholder hereunder exceed the net proceeds from the offering
received by the Stockholder.
5.5. The obligations of the Company and the Stockholder
under this Section 5 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities
in a registration statement and the termination of this Agreement.
6. INFORMATION FROM STOCKHOLDER. It shall be a condition
precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Shares of the Stockholder that the

incurred by the Company. The Stockholder shall pay all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes, if any, attributable to the sale of such securities registered by the Stockholder and any legal, accounting or other
professional fees incurred by the Stockholder.
8. REPORTS UNDER THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT. The

forward-looking statements are based on information available to the Company as of the date of this press release and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, some beyond the Company’s control or ability to foresee, that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements, including, including the impact of Coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic on the Smart Mirror product line, any difficulty in marketing Company products in its target
markets, competition in the market, and impact of evolving technologies in Smart Mirrors on Company’s prospects and products. With declining revenues from Company’s matured LED product line, the success of the new Smart Mirror product line is
critical to the sustainability of the Company through 2021. Consumer acceptance of and orders for the new Smart Mirror product line are uncertain as of the date of this press release. The above referenced investment merely funds an initial
estimated inventory need in advance of any actual sales. Additional information that could lead to material changes in Company’s performance is contained in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Company is under no obligation to,
and expressly disclaims any responsibility to, update or alter forward-looking statements contained in this release, whether as a result of current information, future events or otherwise.

the SEC, especially disclosures of Risk Factors, as a basis for investment decisions about Company common stock. Company’s SEC filings can be
