SECURITIES SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is by and between ______________ (“CLAIMANT”) and the undersigned ("COMPANY" or "DEBTOR") and is entered into as of the effective date below, all with reference to the following facts, which the parties agree are true and correct:
RECITALS
CLAIMANT acquired, on or about this date, certain debt rights, noted below, of the COMPANY;
CLAIMANT is, a creditor of the COMPANY entitled to payment and seeks conversion of outstanding debt securities;
DEBTOR seeks to avoid dispute, retire debt from its books and records, make effort to improve its financial picture for potential acquisition and future fundings by eliminating or limiting the extent of debt the DEBTOR faces, and allow such conversion rights desired by the CLAIMANT;
THEREFORE, THE PARTIES AGREE TO SETTLE, AND THE PURPOSE OF THIS AGREEMENT IS TO REFLECT SUCH SETTLEMENT;
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby represent, warrant, and covenant with and to each other and confirm all of the above and following to professionals, and the transfer agent of COMPANY and others to whom it may concern, as follows:
1. Obligations Owing. Reference is made to the debt securities identified on the signature page hereof (the "Debt"). As to the Debt, any past or current dispute, potential defenses and disputed considerations, etc., are waived by the COMPANY, and the debt obligation is hereby confirmed as owed. The COMPANY ratifies and confirms the validity of the Purchase and Assignment Agreement by and between the CLAIMANT acting as an investor and the prior claimant.
2. Exchange. CLAIMANT and the COMPANY hereby agree to confirm the exchange of the Debt for securities of the COMPANY as follows: based upon the provisions of this Agreement the COMPANY is to repay an amount equal to the principal amount of the Debt ("Principal") with interest at a rate set below per annum ("Interest") by the "Maturity Date" (below) with conversion rights to the CLAIMANT so that, at the election of the CLAIMANT, it may convert the Principal in whole or part from time to time into shares of common stock in the COMPANY (the "Shares"). This obligation of the COMPANY is in the nature of a debenture, but in lieu of issuing a debenture form, the COMPANY shall honor the exchange, payment obligation and conversion rights per this Agreement. Thus, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, CLAIMANT surrenders hereby the Debt and its interest in the Debt strictly for the payment, conversion, Shares and related rights under this securities Agreement. (CLAIMANT will endeavor to use best efforts, for non material file recording, to deliver to the COMPANY any promissory notes, commercial paper, or other evidences of the Debt but such ministerial obligation shall not be a condition to the conversion, Shares, and enforcement rights of this Agreement by CLAIMANT.) With reference to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the exchange hereby is made without any additional consideration applicable.

3. Payment of Principal and Interest. The COMPANY promises to pay to CLAIMANT the Principal and Interest on the Maturity Date, or sooner if required hereby, unless to the extent of any completed conversion of Principal and or Interest as stated herein.
