1. Amendment.  Section 4.1(i) of the Forbearance Agreement is amended to read as follows:  “11:59 pm Portland, Oregon time on June 30, 2016.”

2. Condition Precedent.  The effectiveness of the Amendment set forth in Section 1 above is conditional upon Borrower’s delivery to Lender of a Common Stock Purchase Warrant for 50,000 shares of the Common Stock of Zynex, Inc., in form and substance satisfactory to Lender (the “Warrant”).

3. Suspension of Principal Reduction Payments.  As consideration for the issuance of the Warrant, Lender agreed to temporarily suspend Borrower’s obligation to make the scheduled monthly principal reduction payments of $85,000 for the months of February, March, and April 2016, up to an aggregate cap on such suspension of $250,000.  This temporary suspension in no way relieves Borrower of its obligation to make payment of the full principal amount due or any other Obligations.

4. Continuing Conditions.  The continued effectiveness of the extension of the Forbearance Period is conditional upon Borrower’s compliance with the continuing covenants set forth in Amendment No. 4 to Forbearance Agreement.
