Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Trio Merger Corp. (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;), and one of the Company&rsquo;s initial stockholders,
loaned the Company $100,000. On September 26, 2012, Mr. Rosenfeld loaned the Company an additional $100,000. The loans were evidenced
by unsecured promissory notes issued to Mr. Rosenfeld. The loans are non interest bearing and are payable at the consummation by
the Company of a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, or other similar business combination, with one or more businesses
or entities (a &ldquo;Business Combination&rdquo;). The principal balance of the notes may be converted, at the holder&rsquo;s
option, to warrants at a price of $0.50 per warrant. The terms of the warrants will be identical to the warrants issued by the
Company in its initial public offering except that such warrants will be non-redeemable by the Company and will be exercisable
for cash or on a &ldquo;cashless&rdquo; basis, in each case, if held by the initial holder or its permitted transferees. If Mr.
Rosenfeld converts the entire principal balance of the notes, he would receive warrants to purchase an aggregate of 400,000 shares

Act of 1933, as amended.</P>
