Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Effective April 16, 2026, Genvor Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with Evergreen Capital Management LLC (“Evergreen”), pursuant to which the Company sold, and Evergreen purchased, (i) a convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of up to $800,000 (the “Note”), and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 600,000 shares of Company common stock (the “Warrants”), for an aggregate purchase price of up to $666,668 (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price is to be paid in four tranches of $166,667 (each, a “Tranche”), with the first Tranche paid at the initial closing of the transaction, and the remaining three Tranches paid to the Company upon (i) the Company’s filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 registering for resale shares of Company common stock issuable upon conversion of the Note, and (ii) receiving comments from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on that registration statement. Evergreen shall retain $10,000 from each Tranche to cover its legal fees and closing costs. The first Tranche was funded on April 16, 2026, and on that date, the Note and Warrants were issued to Evergreen.
The SPA includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and customary closing conditions. For each Tranche funded under the Note to the Company, the Note principal shall consist of $200,000 (up to an aggregate of $800,000 if all four Tranches are funded to the Company). The Note matures upon the earlier of (i) 9 months following the Issue Date set forth in the Note (April 15, 2026), or (ii) the listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange (an “Exchange Listing”), such as the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Note accrues interest at 10% per annum and is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.00 per share, or 80% of the lowest volume-weighted average price during the 5 trading days preceding conversion upon the occurrence of any event of default; provided, however, that the holder may not convert the Note to the extent that such conversion would result in the holder’s beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock being in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. The Warrants only entitle the holder to purchase up to 300,000 shares initially, and upon the funding of the second Tranche under the Note, entitle the holder to purchase up to an additional 300,000 shares. The Warrants have a 5-year term, are exercisable on a cashless basis, and have an initial exercise price of $1.00, subject to adjustment so that the exercise price under the Warrants equals the applicable conversion price under the Note.
On April 16, 2026, the Company also entered into an Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with Brio Advisory Group (the “Consultant”), pursuant to which the Consultant will provide the Company advisory services in connection with strategic initiatives, capitalization, financial and other planning, due diligence, financing efforts, and an Exchange Listing, and the Company will issue to the Consultant shares of preferred stock which will be valued as follows: (i) $300,000 per Tranche ($1,200,000 in the aggregate if all four Tranches of funding under the Note are funded to the Company) at the time of the Exchange Listing, or (ii) if there is no Exchange Listing within one year of the date of the Advisory Agreement, that will convert into $300,000 of Company common stock per Tranche based on the 5-day average closing price at such time, but in no event at less than $1.00 per share.
The foregoing descriptions of the SPA, Note, Warrants, and Advisory Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of those agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1-10.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

2
3.2 Corporate Power. The Company has all requisite corporate power to execute and deliver this Agreement, to issue the Note and the Warrant, and to enter into the security and pledge agreement of even date herewith (the “Security and Pledge Agreement”) in the form of Exhibit C and the other instruments, documents and agreements being entered into at the Closing (each a “Subscription Document” and collectively, the “Subscription Documents”) and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of the Subscription Documents.
3.3 Subsidiaries and Affiliates. Section 3.3 of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and correct description of all of the Company’s Subsidiaries and Affiliates and the capitalization (including options, warrants and other such equity), pro forma as of the date hereof reflecting all pending acquisitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Subsidiary” means, with respect to the Company, any corporation or other entity of which at least a majority of the outstanding shares of stock or other ownership interests having by the terms thereof ordinary voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors (or persons performing similar functions) of such corporation or entity (regardless of whether or not at the time, in the case of a corporation, stock of any other class or classes of such corporation shall have or might have voting power by reason of the happening of any contingency) is at the time directly or indirectly owned or controlled by the Company or one or more of its Affiliates and the term “Affiliate” means, as to any person (the “Subject Person”), any other person that directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries controls or is controlled by, or is under direct or indirect common control with, the Subject Person. For the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any person means the power to direct the management and policies of such person, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, through representation on such person’s board of directors or other management committee or group, by contract or otherwise. All references contained herein to the terms Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be applicable to all Subsidiaries and Affiliates whether they existed as of the date hereof or were created, acquired, or otherwise came to be included in the foregoing terms subsequent to the date hereof.

3.5 Governmental Consents. Neither Company nor any Subsidiary is required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other foreign, federal, state, local or other governmental authority or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Subscription Documents, other than (a) applicable Blue Sky filings, (b) such as have already been obtained or such exemptive filings as are required to be made under applicable securities laws, and (c) such other filings that have been made pursuant to applicable state securities laws and post-sale filings pursuant to applicable state and federal securities laws which the Company undertakes to file within the applicable time periods. Subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchasers set forth in Section 4 hereof, the Company has taken all action necessary to exempt: (i) the issuance and sale of the Note and the Warrant, (ii) the issuance of the Underlying Securities upon due conversion of the Note and due exercise of the Warrant, and (iii) the other transactions contemplated by the Subscription Documents from the provisions of any preemptive rights, 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 may be subject and any provision of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or other organizational documentation, as the case may be, that is or could reasonably be expected to become applicable to the Purchasers as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation, the issuance of the Note, the Warrant, the Equity Interest, and the Underlying Securities (collectively, the “Securities”) and the ownership, disposition or voting of the Securities by the Purchasers or the exercise of any right granted to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement or the other Subscription Documents.
3.6 Compliance with Laws. Neither Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any applicable statute, rule, regulation, order or restriction of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof in respect of the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties, which violation would materially and adversely affect the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition or operations of Company and its Subsidiaries.
3.7 Compliance with Other Instruments. Except as set forth in Section 3.7 of the Disclosure Schedule, neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation or default of any term of its organizational documents, or of any provision of any mortgage, indenture or contract to which it is a party and by which it is bound or of any judgment, decree, order or writ, other than such violations that would not individually or in the aggregate reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company. Except as set forth in Section 3.7 of the Disclosure Schedule, the execution, delivery and performance of the Subscription Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Documents will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with, or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any such provision, instrument, judgment, decree, order or writ or an event that results in the creation of any Lien upon any assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture, or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties. The sale of the Note, the issuance of the Warrant and Equity Interest, and the subsequent issuance of the Underlying Securities are not and will not be subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not been properly waived or complied with.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
For value received, Genvor Incorporated, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada (“Genvor” or the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order of Evergreen Capital Management LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Nevada, or registered assigns (the “Holder”) the principal sum of eight hundered thousand dollars ($800,000) (the “Principal Amount”), together with interest on the Principal Amount, on the dates set forth below or upon acceleration or otherwise, as set forth herein (or as may be amended, extended, renewed and refinanced, collectively, this “Note”). The “Interest Rate” shall be ten (10%) percent per annum.
The consideration to the Borrower for this Securities Purchase Agreement is up to six hundred and sixty six thousand six hundred and sixty eight Dollars ($666,668) (the “Consideration”) to be paid to be paid in one or more tranches (each, a “Tranche”). The first (1) Tranche shall consist of a payment by Holder to Borrower of one hundred and sixty six thousand six hundred and sixty seven Dollars ($166,667), with the first Tranche advanced on the Closing Date and remaining three Tranches of one hundred and sixty six thousand six hundred and sixty seven Dollars ($166,667) advanced upon filing of the SEC form S-1, and upon receiving SEC comments on the filed SEC form S-1. The Holder shall retain ten thousand Dollars ($10,000) from each of the Tranches advanced to cover its legal fees and closing costs.
1
The maturity date (“Maturity Date”) shall be the earlier of (i) nine (9) months from the Issue Date or upon a US senior exchange listing. The principal sum, as well as interest and other fees shall be due and payable in accordance with the payment terms set forth in Article I herein.
Except as provided for in Section 1.2 below, all payments of principal and interest due hereunder (to the extent not converted into Borrower’s Common shares (the “Common Shares”) shall be paid by automatic debit, wire transfer, check or in coin or currency which, at the time or times of payment, is the legal tender for public and private debts in the United States of America and shall be made at such place as Holder or the legal holder or holders of the Note may from time to time appoint in a payment invoice or otherwise in writing, and in the absence of such appointment, then at the offices of Holder at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Securities Purchase Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest, then to any late charges, and then to principal. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Securities Purchase Agreement is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the case of any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Securities Purchase Agreement is paid in full, interest shall continue to accrue during such extension. As used in this Securities Purchase Agreement, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.
This Note carries an original issue discount of approximately twenty percent (20%) of the Principal Amount equal to $133,332 in the aggregate (the “OID”), to cover the Holder’s accounting fees, due diligence fees, monitoring, and/or other transactional costs incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the Note, which is included in the principal balance of this Securities Purchase Agreement. Thus, the aggregate purchase price of this Note shall be computed as follows: the Principal Amount minus the OID, and the aggregate purchase price of each of the four tranches of funding under this Note shall be computed as follows: 25% of the Principal Amount ($200,000) minus 25% of the OID ($33,333), for a purchase price of $166,667 for each of the four tranches.
It is further acknowledged and agreed that the Principal Amount owed by Borrower under this Securities Purchase Agreement shall be increased by the amount of all reasonable expenses incurred by the Holder in connection with the collection of amounts due, or enforcement of any terms pursuant to, this Securities Purchase Agreement. All such expenses shall be deemed added to the Principal Amount hereunder to the extent such expenses are paid or incurred by the Holder.
As used herein, the term “Trading Day” means any day that the Borrower’s Common shares (the “Common Shares”) are listed for trading or quotation on the OTC, or any other exchanges or electronic quotation systems on which the Common Shares are then traded.
This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders or members, as applicable, of Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.
The following terms shall apply to this Securities Purchase Agreement:
2
ARTICLE I. GENERAL TERMS
1.1 Interest. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of this Securities Purchase Agreement at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”), calculated on a simple (non-compounding) basis, from the Issue Date until conversion or repayment. Interest hereunder shall be paid as set forth herein to the Holder or its assignee in whose name this Securities Purchase Agreement is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of Notes in cash or, at the option of the Holder, in shares of Common Stock upon conversion as set forth herein.
1.2 Funding; Repayment. The Purchase Price of $666,668.00 shall be funded in tranches. Unless earlier converted pursuant to Article IV, all accrued, unpaid interest and outstanding principal shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. The Company shall have a five
(5) day grace period with respect to any payment due. A payment not made on the due date or within the grace period shall be considered an Event of Default.
1.3 Equity Conditions for Subsequent Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the funding of Tranche 3 and each subsequent Tranche (collectively, the
“Subsequent Tranches”) shall be subject to the satisfaction (or written waiver by the Holder in its sole discretion) of the following equity conditions (the “Equity Conditions”), each of which must be satisfied as of the applicable funding date:
| (a) | No Event of Default. No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. |
(b) Continued Listing. The Common Stock shall remain listed or quoted for trading on the OTC Markets Group or any successor or replacement market.
If any Equity Condition is not satisfied on the applicable funding date, the Holder shall have no obligation to fund the applicable Subsequent Tranche unless the Holder elects otherwise in writing. Failure to fund any Subsequent Tranche due to non-satisfaction of the Equity Conditions shall not constitute a default or breach by the Holder.
1.4 Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right, at its option and upon not less than three (3) Trading Days’ prior written notice to the Holder, to prepay all or any portion of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest on this Securities Purchase Agreement at any time prior to the Maturity Date without premium or penalty of any kind, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, and (ii) the Holder shall have the right, exercisable at any time prior to the proposed prepayment date, to convert all or any portion of this Securities Purchase Agreement in accordance with Article IV.
3
1.5 Seniority; Security. This Note shall be senior secured and pari passu in right of payment and lien priority with all other senior secured convertible promissory notes of the Borrower outstanding from time to time (collectively, the “Senior Secured Notes”). This Note shall be secured by substantially all assets of the Borrower pursuant to a shared security agreement and related collateral documents to be executed and delivered at closing for the benefit of all holders of Senior Secured Notes.
1.6 Warrants. In connection with the issuance of this Securities Purchase Agreement, the Borrower shall issue to the Holder warrants equal to 75% coverage of the Principal Amount, exercisable at the Fixed Conversion Price of $1.00. The warrants shall have a five (5) year term, be exercisable on a cash or cashless basis, and contain customary anti-dilution protections. Half of the warrants shall be issued upon closing and the other half upon the funding of the 2nd tranche.
1.7 Right of Participation. For a period of eighteen (18) months from the Issue Date, the Holder shall have the right to participate, on a pro rata basis, in future equity or equity-linked financings of the Borrower, subject to customary exclusions.
1.8 Registration Rights. The Holder shall be entitled to customary piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement and upon exercise of the warrants. If the Company or any Subsidiary proposes to register any of its Common Shares (other than pursuant to a registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor form), it shall give prompt written notice to the Holder of its intention to effect such registration (an “Incidental Registration”). Within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Holder may make a written request (a “Piggyback Request”) that the Company include in such Incidental Registration all or a portion of the Underlying Securities owned by the Holder. As used herein, “Underlying Securities” means the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement and the Reserved Amount. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include in such Incidental Registration all Underlying Securities requested to be registered pursuant to a timely Piggyback Request, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks.
1.9 Most Favored Nation. So long as this Securities Purchase Agreement remains outstanding, if the Borrower issues or enters into any agreement with respect to any subsequent convertible debt or Common Stock Equivalents, as defined in section 4.7 (f) that contains one or more economic or financial terms that are more favorable to the holder thereof than the corresponding terms set forth in this Securities Purchase Agreement (each, a “More Favorable Term”), then the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to have any such More Favorable Term or terms apply to this Securities Purchase Agreement on an individual, term-by-term basis, without requiring the adoption of all other terms of such subsequent instrument.
For the avoidance of doubt:
4
(a) the Holder may select and apply one or more individual More Favorable Terms without being required to accept any other provisions of such subsequent financing, whether favorable or unfavorable;
(b) each such election shall apply only to the specific term or terms elected by the Holder and shall not otherwise amend or modify this Securities Purchase Agreement; and
(c) the exercise of rights under this Section 1.8 shall not cause a violation of applicable securities laws or stock exchange rules.
Original issue discount, fees, and transaction-specific structural provisions shall be excluded from the operation of this Section 1.9 unless expressly elected by the Holder in writing.
1.10 So long as any portion of this Securities Purchase Agreement remains outstanding, the Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holder, issue or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding to issue any Variable Rate Transaction (as such term is customarily defined in US convertible note transactions), including, without limitation, any equity or debt security that is convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to acquire, shares of Common Stock at a price which is based on or varies with the trading price of the Common Stock, or any similar floating or reset price mechanism (a "Variable Security"); provided, that this restriction shall not apply to Excluded Issuances.
1.11 Rollover Rights. So long as the Note is outstanding, if the Company completes any single public offering or private placement of its equity, equity-linked or debt securities, including but
not limited to a “Reg-A Offering” (each, a “Future Transaction”), the Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, elect to apply as purchase consideration for such Future Transaction: (i) all, or any portion, of the then outstanding principal amount of the Note and any accrued but unpaid interest, including any amounts that would be added to the principal outstanding in the event that any redemption right or prepayment right is exercised by either the Purchaser or the Company, and (ii) any securities of the Company then held by the Purchaser, at their fair value (the “Rollover Rights”). The Company shall give written notice to Purchaser as soon as practicable, but in no event less than fifteen (15) days before the anticipated closing date of such Future Transaction. The Purchaser may exercise its Rollover Rights by providing the Company written notice of such exercise within five (5) Business Days before the closing of the Future Transaction. In the event Purchaser exercises its Rollover Rights, then such elected portion with respect to (i) and (ii) above, shall automatically convert into the corresponding securities issued in such Future Transaction under the terms of such Future Transaction, such that the Purchaser will receive all securities (including, without limitation, any warrants) issuable under the Future Transaction except that (i) the conversion price under the Rollover Rights shall be equal to eighty–five percent (85%) of the VWAP of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the rollover closing, representing a fifteen percent (15%) discount, and (ii) the principal amount of the Rollover Rights shall be equal to the aggregate dollar amount of such rolled–over obligations, with the Holder’s buying power being determined by reference to the trading price of the Common Stock on such rollover date such that the Holder shall receive credit for the full dollar value of the outstanding balance being rolled over at such discounted price.
5
ARTICLE II. CERTAIN COVENANTS
2.1 Sale of Assets. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Securities Purchase Agreement, the Borrower shall not, without the Holder’s written consent, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business.
Any consent to the disposition of any assets may be conditioned on a specified use of the
proceeds of disposition subject to any requirements by the Borrower’s senior secured lender.
ARTICLE III. EVENTS OF DEFAULT
If any of the following events of default (each, an “Event of Default”) shall occur:
3.1 Failure to Pay Principal and Interest. The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Securities Purchase Agreement, whether at maturity or upon acceleration and such breach continues for a period of five (5) days after written notice from the Holder.
3.2 Conversion and the Shares. If the Borrower fails to issue shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or announces or threatens in writing that it will not honor its obligation to do so) upon exercise by the Holder of the conversion rights of the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Securities Purchase Agreement, fails to transfer or cause its transfer agent to transfer (issue) (electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Securities Purchase Agreement as and when required by this Securities Purchase Agreement, the Borrower directs its transfer agent not to transfer or delays, impairs, and/or hinders its transfer agent in transferring (or issuing) (electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Securities Purchase Agreement as and when required by this Securities Purchase Agreement, or fails to remove (or directs its transfer agent not to remove or impairs, delays, and/or hinders its transfer agent from removing) any restrictive legend (or to withdraw any stop transfer instructions in respect thereof) on any certificate for any shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Securities Purchase Agreement as and when required by this Securities Purchase Agreement (or makes any written announcement, statement or threat that it does not intend to honor the obligations described in this paragraph) and any such failure shall continue uncured (or any written announcement, statement or threat not to honor its obligations shall not be rescinded in writing) for two (2) business days after the Holder shall have delivered a Notice of Conversion. It is an obligation of the Borrower to remain current in its obligations to its transfer agent. It shall be an event of default of this Securities Purchase Agreement, if a conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement is delayed, hindered or frustrated due to a balance owed by the Borrower to its transfer agent. If at the option of the Holder, the Holder advances any funds to the Borrower’s transfer agent in order to process a conversion, such advanced funds shall be paid by the Borrower to the Holder within forty-eight (48) hours of a demand from the Holder.
6
3.3 Breach of Covenants. The Borrower breaches any material covenant or other material term or condition contained in this Securities Purchase Agreement and any collateral documents and such breach continues for a period of ten (10) days.
3.4 Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty of the Borrower made herein or in any agreement, statement or certificate given in writing pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made and the breach of which has (or with the passage of time will have) a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Securities Purchase Agreement.
3.5 Receiver or Trustee. The Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee for it or for a substantial part of its property or business, or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be appointed.
3.6 Bankruptcy. Bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings, voluntary or involuntary, for relief under any bankruptcy law or any law for the relief of debtors shall be instituted by or against the Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower.
3.7 Delisting of Common Stock. The Borrower shall fail to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on at least one of the OTC (which specifically includes the quotation platforms maintained by the OTC Markets Group) or an equivalent replacement exchange, the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the New York Stock Exchange, or the American Stock Exchange.
3.8 Failure to Comply with the Exchange Act. The Borrower shall fail to comply with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act; and/or the Borrower shall cease to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.
3.9 Liquidation. Any dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of Borrower or any substantial portion of its business.
3.10 Cessation of Operations. Any cessation of operations by Borrower or Borrower admits it is otherwise generally unable to pay its debts as such debts become due, provided, however, that any disclosure of the Borrower’s ability to continue as a “going concern” shall not be an admission that the Borrower cannot pay its debts as they become due.
3.11 Financial Statement Restatement. The restatement of any financial statements filed by the Borrower with the SEC at any time after 180 days after the Issue Date for any date or period until this Securities Purchase Agreement is no longer outstanding, if the result of such restatement would, by comparison to the un-restated financial statement, have constituted a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Securities Purchase Agreement.
7
3.12 Replacement of Transfer Agent. In the event that the Borrower proposes to replace its transfer agent, the Borrower fails to provide, prior to the effective date of such replacement, a fully executed Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions in a form as signed by the successor transfer agent to Borrower and the Borrower.
3.13 Cross-Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Securities Purchase Agreement or the other related or companion documents, a breach or default by the Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any of the Other Agreements, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, shall, at the option of the Holder, be considered a default under this Securities Purchase Agreement and the Other Agreements, in which event the Holder shall be entitled (but in no event required) to apply all rights and remedies of the Holder under the terms of this Securities Purchase Agreement and the Other Agreements by reason of a default under said Other Agreement or hereunder. “Other Agreements” means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or for the benefit of, (2) the Holder and any affiliate of the Holder, including, without limitation, promissory notes; provided, however, the term “Other Agreements” shall not include the related or companion documents to this Securities Purchase Agreement.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Note shall become immediately due and payable and the Borrower shall pay to the Holder, in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to the then outstanding principal amount of this Securities Purchase Agreement plus accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Securities Purchase Agreement to the date of payment, plus Default Interest at a rate of twenty-four percent (24%) per annum and all costs, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
3.14 Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the outstanding principal amount of this Securities Purchase Agreement, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, Default Interest and any other amounts due hereunder (collectively, the "Default Balance"), shall, at the option of the Holder, automatically be increased by a multiplier of one and twenty–five one–hundredths (1.25x), such that the Default Balance shall equal one hundred twenty–five percent (125%) of the outstanding amounts immediately prior to the Event of Default.
3.15 The Holder shall not be required to provide any separate notice or declaration of default in order to benefit from or enforce any of the rights, protections or remedies that arise upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Securities Purchase Agreement, it being agreed that all such rights, protections and remedies shall arise and be enforceable automatically upon the occurrence of the applicable Event of Default.
3.16 Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Holder shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to convert all or any portion of the then outstanding Default Balance into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to eighty percent (80%) of the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock during the five (5) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date, it being the intent of the parties that, upon and after default, the conversion shall occur at a twenty percent (20%) discount to the lowest VWAP during such five (5) Trading Day period.
8
3.17 In connection with the issuance of this Securities Purchase Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver to its transfer agent an irrevocable reserve letter pursuant to which the Borrower shall cause the transfer agent to reserve, from the Borrower’s duly authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, a number of shares equal to at least three (3) times the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon full conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement based on the Default Conversion Price (as defined herein), which reserve shall be maintained (and replenished as necessary) for so long as this Securities Purchase Agreement remains outstanding.
3.18 Board Resolutions; Officer’s Certification. Upon closing of this Securities Purchase Agreement or the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents pursuant hereto, the Borrower shall deliver to the Holder:
(a) Board Resolution. A certified copy of resolutions duly adopted by the Borrower’s board of directors (or an authorized committee thereof), approving (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Securities Purchase Agreement and all related transaction documents, (ii) the issuance of the Note, the Common Stock issuable upon conversion hereof, and any related warrants or other securities, and (iii) the reservation and issuance of a sufficient number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock to satisfy all obligations under this Securities Purchase Agreement.
(b) Officer’s Certificate. A certificate executed by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower, certifying as of the date thereof that:
(i) the resolutions referenced above remain in full force and effect and have not been amended, rescinded or revoked;
(ii) the Borrower has sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock to fully satisfy all conversion, reserve and issuance obligations under this Securities Purchase Agreement;
| (iii) | no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and |
(iv) the issuance of the shares pursuant to this Securities Purchase Agreement will not violate the Borrower’s organizational documents, any shareholder agreement, or applicable law.
The Holder may rely conclusively on such resolutions and certificate, and the Borrower’s
failure to timely deliver the foregoing upon request shall constitute an Event of Default.
3.18 Failure to Deliver Common Shares Prior to Warrant Share Delivery Date. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, or other remedies provided to Holder herein, the parties agree that if Borrower causes the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement to not be delivered by the Warrant Share Delivery Date (such undelivered shares referred to herein as the “Undelivered Shares”), Borrower shall pay to the Holder in cash, the sum of: (i) the greater of (x) $1,000 per day for each day beyond the Warrant Share Delivery Date that Borrower fails to deliver such Common Shares, or (y) for each $1,000 of Undelivered Shares subject to such Conversion ( valued based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Conversion Notice), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Undelivered Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such Conversion, and (ii) the product of the number of Undelivered Shares multiplied by the difference between the highest trade price and the lowest trade price during the period beginning on the date that such conversion was submitted, and the date on which the Shares are delivered to Holder’s Prime Broker and are available to be sold. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Securities Purchase Agreement, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Securities Purchase Agreement and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Shares in accordance with the terms of this Securities Purchase Agreement. Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder, and as such, Borrower will not take any actions to hamper, delay or prevent any Holder conversion of the Note. The damages resulting from such failure to deliver Undelivered Shares, or an attempt to frustrate or interference with Holder’s Conversion Right, are difficult if not impossible to qualify.
9
ARTICLE IV. CONVERSION RIGHTS
4.1 Conversion Right. At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Holder shall have the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of this Securities Purchase Agreement into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Securities Purchase Agreement in excess of that portion of this Securities Purchase Agreement upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Securities Purchase Agreement with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The beneficial ownership limitations on conversion as set forth in this section may NOT be waived by the Holder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 4.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00pm, New York, New York time the Conversion Date shall be the next business day. The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Securities Purchase Agreement to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Securities Purchase Agreement to the Conversion Date.
4.2 Conversion Price. The “Conversion Price” shall mean the Market Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Issue Date (the “Closing Date”), subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower relating to the Borrower’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events.
4.3 Conversion Price Floor: In no event shall the Conversion Price be less than $1.00 per share (the 'Floor Price').
4.4 Event of Default: Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the $1.00 Floor Price shall be automatically null and void and of no further force or effect, and the Holder may convert all or any portion of the outstanding Default Balance at a price equal to eighty percent (80%) of the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock during the five (5) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date.
4.5 Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period that the Note is outstanding, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Reserved Amount”). The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Securities Purchase Agreement shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Securities Purchase Agreement.
| 4.6 | Method of Conversion. |
(a) Mechanics of Conversion. At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the balance due pursuant to this Securities Purchase Agreement may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 4.4(b), surrendering this Securities Purchase Agreement at the principal office of the Borrower (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder).
10
(b) Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Securities Purchase Agreement to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Securities Purchase Agreement is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Securities Purchase Agreement upon each such conversion.
(c) Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 4.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within two (2) business days after such receipt (the “Deadline”). Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Securities Purchase Agreement shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations hereunder, all rights with respect to the portion of this Securities Purchase Agreement being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion.
(d) Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions set forth herein, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) system.
(e) Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. The parties acknowledge that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no daily failure penalties shall apply under this Securities Purchase Agreement; however, the Holder shall retain the right to pursue all remedies available at law or in equity, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, in the event the Borrower fails to deliver shares by the Deadline due to action and/or inaction of the Borrower.
4.7 Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement may not be sold or transferred unless: (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration (such as Rule 144 or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”); or (iii) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 4.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act of 1933).
11
| 4.8 | Effect of Certain Events. |
(a) Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the then outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, plus Default Interest at a rate of twenty-four percent (24%) per annum and costs as set forth herein.
(b) Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Securities Purchase Agreement is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Securities Purchase Agreement shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Securities Purchase Agreement been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Securities Purchase Agreement to the end that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof.
(c) Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise, then the Holder of this Securities Purchase Agreement shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such distribution.
12
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the Borrower effects any reverse stock split or other recapitalization that results in a reduction in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price and any other price-based measure used to determine the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement shall be proportionately and equitably adjusted such that, following such reverse stock split or recapitalization, the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon conversion the number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder would have been entitled to receive had such conversion occurred immediately prior to such reverse stock split or recapitalization, with such adjustment resulting in a Conversion Price equal to the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock during the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days immediately following the effectiveness of such reverse stock split.
(e) For so long as this Securities Purchase Agreement remains outstanding, the Conversion Price and any other issuance or exercise price with respect to securities issued pursuant to this Securities Purchase Agreement shall in no event be higher than the lowest price per share at which the Borrower issues or sells any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents
(“Common Stock Equivalents”) while this Securities Purchase Agreement is outstanding, subject only to customary exemptions for Excluded Issuances (the "Lowest Issuance Price").
(f) If the Borrower issues or sells any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at a price per share that is lower than the then applicable Conversion Price (a "Down Round Issuance"), then, effective upon the consummation of such Down Round Issuance, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal the price per share in such Down Round Issuance, and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Securities Purchase Agreement shall be correspondingly increased such that the aggregate Conversion Amount remains unchanged, it being the intent of the parties that a decrease in price shall result in a proportionate increase in the number of shares issuable hereunder.
“Common Stock Equivalents” means any securities of the Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including, without limitation, any convertible debt, convertible preferred stock, warrants, options, rights, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, phantom stock, contracts, commitments, or other securities or instruments (whether or not issued or outstanding) that are convertible into, exercisable for, or otherwise entitle the holder thereof to receive Common Stock, whether upon conversion, exercise, exchange, vesting or otherwise, and regardless of the conversion, exercise or purchase price thereof. Common Stock Equivalents shall also include any securities issued or issuable pursuant to any equity or equity-linked financing, reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction, but shall exclude Excluded Issuances expressly permitted under this Securities Purchase Agreement.

COMMON SHARE PURCHASE WARRANT
Genvor Incorporated
Warrant Shares: 600,000 (300,000 First Tranche, 300,000 Second Tranche)
Date of Issuance: April 15, 2026 (“Issuance Date”)
This COMMON SHARE PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received (in connection with the issuance by Genvor Incorporated, a corporation organized under the laws of the Nevada (the “Company”), to Evergreen Capital Management LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Nevada (including any permitted and registered assigns, each referred to hereinafter as “Holder”), of the senior secured convertible promissory note of even date herewith (the “Note”), Holder is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof and on or prior to 5 PM New York City Time on April 15th, 2031 but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, up to 600,000 shares (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock. The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price.
The exercise price per share of the Common Stock under this Warrant shall initially be $1.00, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”). The Exercise Price set forth herein is intended to be equal to the Conversion Price under the Convertible Promissory Note dated April 15, 2026, and shall be deemed conformed thereto.
For the avoidance of doubt, this Warrant represents the right to purchase an aggregate of 600,000 Common Shares, calculated as seventy-five percent (75%) of the Principal Amount under the Convertible Promissory Note divided by the Fixed Conversion Price of $1.00 per share. One-half (300,000) of the Warrant Shares shall be issued upon the initial closing of the Note, and the remaining one-half (300,000) shall be issued upon the funding of the second (2nd) tranche of funding under the Note.
| 1. | EXERCISE OF WARRANT. |
(a) Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time or times during the Exercise Period by delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant. The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. On or before the second Trading Day (the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”) following the date on which the Company shall have received the Exercise Notice, and upon receipt by the Company of payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which all or a portion of this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price” and together with the Exercise Notice, the “Exercise Delivery Documents”) in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or by cashless exercise, in which case there shall be no Aggregate Exercise Price provided), the Company shall (or direct its transfer agent to) issue the number of Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise (such number referred to hereinafter as the “Exercised Amount” and such shares to be issued referred to hereinafter as the “Exercised Warrant Shares”), registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee. At the option of the Holder, such shares shall be issued either (i) in DRS book entry form, (ii) directly into a brokerage account by DWAC transfer (if eligible), or (iii) on one or more certificates dispatched by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice. Upon delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the Exercised Amount, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 6) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the Exercised Amount.
1
If at any time after the 6 month anniversary of the Issuance Date, the Market Price of one Common Share is greater than the Exercise Price and the Warrant Shares are not registered under an effective non-stale registration statement of the Company, the Holder may elect to receive Warrant Shares pursuant to a cashless exercise, in lieu of a cash exercise, equal to the value of this Warrant determined in the manner described below (or of any portion thereof remaining unexercised) by surrender of this Warrant and a Notice of Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to Holder a number of Common Shares computed using the following formula:
A |
X = Y (A-B)
Where X = the number of Shares to be issued to Holder.
| Y = | the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder elects to purchase under this Warrant (at the date of such calculation). |
A = the Market Price (at the date of such calculation).
B = Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).
Failure to Deliver Common Shares Prior to Warrant Share Delivery Date. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, or other remedies provided to Holder herein, the parties agree that if the Company causes the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note to not be delivered by the Warrant Share Delivery Date (such undelivered shares referred to herein as the “Undelivered Shares”), the Company shall pay to the Holder in cash, the sum of: (i) the greater of (x) $1,000 per day for each day beyond the Warrant Share Delivery Date that the Company fails to deliver such Common Shares, or (y) for each $1,000 of Undelivered Shares subject to such Conversion ( valued based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Conversion Notice), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the
fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Undelivered Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such Conversion, and
(ii) the product of the number of Undelivered Shares multiplied by the difference between the highest trade price and the lowest trade price during the period beginning on the date that such conversion was submitted, and the date on which the Shares are delivered to Holder’s Prime Broker and are available to be sold. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Company by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Shares in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Company agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder, and as such, the Company will not take any actions to hamper, delay or prevent any Holder conversion of the Note. The damages resulting from such failure to deliver Undelivered Shares, or an attempt to frustrate or interference with Holder’s Conversion Right, are difficult if not impossible to qualify.
2
(b) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant as a consequence of any adjustment pursuant hereto. All Warrant Shares (including fractions) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the exercise would result in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after aggregation, the exercise would result in the issuance of a fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuance of any fractional share, pay the Holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum in cash equal to the product resulting from multiplying the then-current fair market value of a Warrant Share by such fraction.
(c) Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, as defined below. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Common Shares which would be issuable upon
(i) exercise of the remaining, non-exercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or non-converted portion of any other securities of the Company (including without limitation any other Common Share Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph (c), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this paragraph applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination.
For purposes of this paragraph, in determining the number of outstanding Common Shares, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Common Shares as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the number of Common Shares outstanding. Upon the request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm 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 Warrant, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding Common Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. Upon no fewer than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, a Holder may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this paragraph and the provisions of this paragraph shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company and shall only apply to such Holder and no other Holder. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor Holder of this Warrant.
3
2. ADJUSTMENTS. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(a) Distribution of Assets. If the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including without limitation any distribution of cash, shares or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case:
(i) any Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Shares entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) applicable to one Common Share, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding such record date; and
(ii) the number of Warrant Shares shall be increased to a number of shares equal to the number of Common Shares obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Shares entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i); provided, however, that in the event that the Distribution is of Common Shares of a company (other than the Company) whose common stock is traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation system (“Other Shares of Common Stock”), then the Holder may elect to receive a warrant to purchase Other Shares of Common Stock in lieu of an increase in the number of Warrant Shares, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the number of Other Shares of Common Stock that would have been payable to the Holder pursuant to the Distribution had the Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an aggregate exercise price equal to the product of the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding clause (i) and the number of Warrant Shares calculated in accordance with the first part of this clause (ii).
(b) Proportional Adjustments of Outstanding Common Shares and Common Share Dividends.

Any adjustments under this Section 2(b) shall be effective at the close of business on the date the share split becomes effective or the date of payment of the share dividend, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, this adjustment shall not apply when shares of outstanding Common Share are merged proportionally across all shareholders to form a smaller number of outstanding shares.

(c) Anti-dilution Adjustment. If at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company sells or grants (or has sold or granted, as the case may be) any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or has sold or issued, as the case may be, or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Share or other securities convertible into, exercisable for or otherwise entitled any person or entity the right to acquire Common Shares at an effective price per share that is lower than the Exercise Price then in effect hereunder (such lower price, the “Base Exercise Price” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being agreed that if the holder of the Common Share or other securities so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive Common Shares at an effective price per share that is lower than the Exercise Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to a price equal to the Base Exercise Price, and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise Price, shall be equal to the aggregate Exercise Price prior to such adjustment. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Share or other securities are issued, provided however, that no adjustment will be made under this Section 2(c) in respect of an Exempt Issuance. For purposes of this Section 2(c), an “Exempt Issuance.” Exempt Issuance” shall mean any issuance of Common Shares to (i) officers, directors, employees, or consultants as compensation for services or as a bonus, or (ii) investors in a private placement transaction of Common Shares for cash. In the event of an issuance of securities involving multiple tranches or closings, any adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall be calculated as if all such securities were issued at the initial closing.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the Company effects any reverse stock split or other recapitalization that results in a reduction in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price and any other price-based measure used to determine the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be proportionately and equitably adjusted such that, following such reverse stock split or recapitalization, the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon conversion the number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder would have been entitled to receive had such conversion occurred immediately prior to such reverse stock split or recapitalization, with such adjustment in no event resulting in a Conversion Price higher than the lowest volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Common Stock during the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days immediately following the effectiveness of such reverse stock split.
3. FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger of the Company with or into another entity and the Company is not the surviving entity (such surviving entity, the “Successor Entity”), (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or by another individual or entity, and approved by the Company) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Shares are permitted to tender or exchange their Common Shares for other securities, cash or property and the holders of at least 50% of the Common Shares accept such offer, or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Shares or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Shares are effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than as a result of a subdivision or combination of Common Shares) (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive the number of Common Shares of the Successor Entity or of the Company and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event (disregarding any limitation on exercise contained herein solely for the purpose of such determination). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one Common Share in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Shares are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any Successor Entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to exercise such warrant into Alternate Consideration.

N. Not Acting as a Broker-Dealer/Legal. The Company hereby acknowledges that Consultant is not a licensed broker-dealer and is not raising capital for the Company. The Company also acknowledges that the Consultant is not providing any legal or accounting services on behalf of the Company. It is mutually agreed that the Consultant will not:
| i. | Sell any securities, offer to sell any securities, or solicit offers to purchase any securities of Company; |
| ii. | Negotiate with any prospective purchaser of securities or potential acquirer of Company on behalf; |
| iii. | Make any representations or warranties on behalf of Company or with respect to any of the Company's securities; |
| iv. | Prepare or disseminate any documentation regarding Company or any potential investment in or acquisition of Company unless specifically authorized by Company, or to engage in any general advertising or solicitation with respect to Company or its securities; |

| vi. | Disseminate term sheets, offering documents, business plans or any other Company information unless specifically authorized by Company; |
| vii. | Receive or transmit funds to or from potential investors in or acquirers of Company; or |
| viii. | Make any representation on behalf of Company, except as expressly authorized in advance in writing from time to time by Company and then only to the extent of such authorization. |
O. Right of Participation. For a period of 12 months from the Execution of this Agreement or until such time a Senior Exchange is completed, the Company will not, directly or indirectly, effect an offering of any shares of capital stock, convertible securities, rights, options, warrants or any other kind of its securities in a financing (a “Subsequent Financing”), unless in each case the Company shall have, in the manner prescribed in this Section offered to sell to Consultant on the same terms and conditions as offered to the investors in such Subsequent Financing an amount of such offered securities equal to ten percent (10%) of the total amount of the Subsequent Financing (the “Right of Participation”). For purposes of this Section, Consultant’s “Right of Participation” shall equal the amount of the Subsequent Financing, inclusive of the Consultant’s acquisition of securities in such Subsequent Financing.
At least five (5) Business Days prior to any proposed or Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to Consultant a written notice of its proposal or intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (each such notice, a “Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall not contain any information other than: (i) a statement that the Company proposes or intends to effect a Subsequent Financing, and (ii) a statement informing Consultant that it is entitled to receive an Offer Notice (as defined below) with respect to such Subsequent Financing upon its written request. Upon the written request of Consultant within three (3) Business Days after the Company’s delivery to Consultant of such Pre-Notice, and only upon a written request by Consultant, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Business Day after such request, deliver to Consultant an irrevocable written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the “Offer”) of the securities being offered (the “Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Financing, which Offer Notice shall (w) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (x) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (y) identify the Persons (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (z) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with Consultant in accordance with the terms of the Offer an amount of such Offered Securities sufficient to fulfill Consultant’s Right of Participation.

To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, Consultant must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the fourth (4th) Business Day after Consultant’s receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion of the Basic Amount that Consultant elects to purchase and, if Consultant shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, any additional number, if any, that Consultant elects to purchase (the “Notice of Acceptance”); provided, however, that the Company shall only be obligated under this Section to sell to the Consultant that number of Offered Securities included in a Notice of Acceptance up to the Basic Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer (including a change in the number of Offered Securities) prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company must deliver to Consultant a new Offer Notice and a new Offer Period shall expire on the fourth (4th) Business Day after Consultant’s receipt of such new Offer Notice. Any prior Notice of Acceptance shall be null and void upon receipt of the new Offer Notice.
Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, Consultant shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to Consultant, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance. The purchase by Consultant of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and Consultant of a separate purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Consultant and its counsel.
P. Disclaimer of Information. The obligations of the Consultant described in this Agreement consist solely of the furnishing of information and advice to the Company. All final decisions with respect to acts of the Company or its affiliates, whether or not made pursuant to or in reliance on information or advice furnished by Consultant hereunder, shall be those of the Company or such affiliates and Consultant shall under no circumstances be liable for any expenses incurred or loss suffered by the Company as a consequence of such decisions except as provided in Section 10 below.
