STANDSTILL AND RESTRUCTURING AGREEMENT

This Standstill and Restructuring Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of June 1, 2012, by and between JMJ Financial (“Lender”), and mPhase Technologies, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“Borrower”).

A. Borrower previously issued to Lender three Convertible Promissory Notes B-09232009b, B-12152009a, and B-12152009b (the “Notes”) with current principal balances, including interest and other amounts payable under the Notes, of $319,878.67, $360,000, and $122,181.82, respectively, and an aggregate principal balance of $802,060.49 (the “Original Principal Balance”).

B. Each Note is convertible into shares of Borrower’s common stock (“Common Stock”) on the terms and conditions set forth therein.

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Standstill and Restructure. Subject to the terms, conditions and understandings contained in this Agreement, and provided Borrower is not in default of any provision hereunder or under any Note, Lender agrees that during the Standstill Period (a) it will not seek to convert any portion of the Principal Balance, and (b) it will not sell any shares of Borrower’s Common Stock. The Standstill Period shall commence on the date of this Agreement and continue for a period of four months from the date of this Agreement. Thereafter, the Standstill Period shall continue for so long as Borrower is current on and has made all Note Payments (as defined below) required hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Standstill Period shall immediately and automatically terminate upon Borrower’s failure to make any Note Payment when due or upon Borrower’s breach of any other term or provision of this Agreement or the Notes.

2. Standstill Fee. As a material inducement and partial consideration for Lender’s agreement to enter into this Agreement, the Principal Balance of the Notes, as of immediately prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto, shall be increased by 8%, which equals $64,164.84 (the “Standstill Effect,” and the Original Principal Balance as increased by the Standstill Effect is the “Increased Principal Balance”). The Standstill Effect shall be fully earned and nonrefundable upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties.

3. Note Payments. Borrower shall make the following cash payments to Lender (each, a “Note Payment”):

(a) The Original Principal Balance shall accrue interest at the annual rate of 8%, compounded monthly, commencing as of June 1, 2012. Borrower agrees to pay to Lender monthly payments in the amount of $37,018.31 on the 1st day of each calendar month, commencing on October 1, 2012, and continuing thereafter until September 1, 2014 (each, a “Monthly Amortizing Payment”). An amortization schedule is attached hereto as Schedule A.

1


(b) In addition to the Monthly Amortizing Payments, Borrower shall make the following payments (each, an “Additional Payment”) to Lender each month during which the conditions to such Additional Payment being paid are satisfied; provided, however that for any month during which the conditions are satisfied for both Additional Payments to be made, Borrower shall only be obligated to make the higher of the two Additional Payments. When required, each such Additional Payment shall be payable together with the Monthly Amortizing Payment for the given month.

(i) If the aggregate total daily dollar trading volume of the Common Stock for the 22 Trading Days (as defined in the Note) immediately preceding the date each Monthly Amortizing Payment is due is greater than $2,500,000, then Borrower shall make one additional payment in the amount of the Monthly Amortizing Payment together with the Monthly Amortizing Payment due for that month.

(ii) If during any calendar month immediately preceding the date a Monthly Amortizing Payment is due, the aggregate total amount of all of Borrower’s draws (“Draws”) during such calendar month on any and all equity lines of credit available to Borrower (whether now existing or that may exist hereafter), including without limitation that certain credit facility between Borrower and Dutchess Opportunity Fund II, LP dated November 30, 2011, exceeds $200,000.00, then, together with the Monthly Amortizing Payment due for that month, Borrower shall pay to Lender 31.6% of the excess of the amount of such Draws during such month over $200,000.00. In furtherance of the foregoing, Borrower shall deliver to Lender each month together with its Monthly Amortizing Payment a certificate certifying to Lender the amount of Borrower’s Draws during the preceding month.

(c) The Monthly Amortizing Payments and the Additional Payments, less any accrued interest represented by such payments, shall reduce the Original Principal Balance. After a monthly payment to the Lender of the Monthly Amortizing Payment and any Additional Payment, if the remaining Original Principal Balance plus accrued interest is less than the amount of the next Monthly Amortizing Payment set forth above, then on the date of the next Monthly Amortizing Payment (the “Final Payment Date”), the Monthly Amortizing Payment shall be equal to the remaining Original Principal Balance plus accrued interest.

(d) On the earlier of September 1, 2014 or the Final Payment Date, in addition to the final Monthly Amortizing Payment due on such date, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender the amount of the Standstill Effect and any other amounts due under the Notes and not yet paid as of such date. The amount of the Standstill Effect shall not accrue interest prior to the date on which it is required to be paid, but thereafter, if such Standstill Effect has not been paid on time, the Standstill Effect shall accrue interest at 8% until such time as it is paid.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, no provision in this Agreement or any other agreement shall alter, impair or render conditional the obligation of Borrower, which is absolute and unconditional, to make the Monthly Amortizing Payments, the Additional Payments, and the payment of the Standstill Effect at the place, at the time, and in the currency herein prescribed.

4. Failure to Comply. Borrower understands that the Standstill Period shall terminate immediately upon the occurrence of any material breach of this Agreement. Moreover, in such event Lender shall retain all rights and remedies under the Notes as if this Agreement was never entered into.

2


5. Periodic Review. Borrower and Lender shall review the terms of this Agreement every 90 days to determine if a more accelerated payment schedule may be established or whether other terms of this Agreement should be modified to better accomplish the goals of the parties, provided however, neither party shall be compelled to accept any modification of this Agreement.

6. Ratification of Notes. The Notes shall be and remain in full force and effect (subject to the amendments set forth herein) in accordance with their terms and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. Borrower acknowledges that it is unconditionally obligated to pay the Increased Principal Balance pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and represents that such obligation is not subject to any defenses, rights of offset, or counterclaims. The Increased Principal Balance of the Notes shall be deemed and affirmed to be $866,225.33. No forbearance or waiver other than as expressly set forth herein may be implied by this Agreement. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment to, any right, power, or remedy of Lender under the Notes, as in effect prior to the date hereof.

7. Representations and Warranties. In order to induce Lender to enter into this Agreement, Borrower, for itself, and for its affiliates, successors and assigns, hereby acknowledges, represents, warrants and agrees as follows:

(b) The agreement of Lender to refrain and forbear from exercising any rights and remedies by reason of any existing default or any future default shall not constitute a waiver of, consent to, or condoning of, any existing or future default. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor any of the terms, provisions, covenants, or agreements contained in this Agreement shall in any manner release, impair, lessen, modify, waive, or otherwise affect the liability and obligations of Borrower under the terms of the Note.

(c) Borrower has no defenses, affirmative or otherwise, rights of setoff, rights of recoupment, claims, counterclaims, actions or causes of action of any kind or nature whatsoever against Lender, directly or indirectly, arising out of, based upon, or in any manner connected with, the transactions contemplated hereby, whether known or unknown, which occurred, existed, was taken, permitted, or begun prior to the execution of this Agreement and occurred, existed, was taken, permitted or begun in accordance with, pursuant to, or by virtue of any of the terms or conditions of the Notes. To the extent any such defenses, affirmative or otherwise, rights of setoff, rights of recoupment, claims, counterclaims, actions or causes of action exist or existed, such defenses, rights, claims, counterclaims, actions and causes of action are hereby waived, discharged and released. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the execution of this Agreement by Lender shall not constitute an acknowledgment of or admission by Lender of the existence of any claims or of liability for any matter or precedent upon which any claim or liability may be asserted.
