THIS SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated October 15, 2013, by and between Blue Calypso, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Ronald L. Chez (“Purchaser”).

R E C I T A L S:

ABA number XXXXXXXXX

Account number XXXXXXX

For further credit: Blue Calypso, Inc.

or by check made payable to: “Blue Calypso, Inc.” Receipt by the Company of funds wired, or deposit and collection by the Company of the check tendered herewith, will not constitute acceptance of this Agreement by the Company. The Shares subscribed for will not be deemed to be issued to, or owned by, Purchaser until the Company has executed this Agreement. All funds tendered by Purchaser will be held by the Company pending acceptance or rejection of this Agreement by the Company and the closing of Purchaser’s purchase of Shares.

(c) Closing. Upon the Company’s execution of this Agreement, the subscription evidenced hereby will, in reliance upon Purchaser’s representations and warranties contained herein, be accepted by the Company. Upon acceptance of this Agreement, the Company will issue the Shares to Purchaser.

3. Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a) Organization and Qualification.

(i) If Purchaser is an entity, Purchaser is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, with the corporate or other entity power and authority to own and operate its business as presently conducted, except where the failure to be or have any of the foregoing would not have a material adverse effect on Purchaser, and Purchaser is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other entity to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of its properties owned or held under lease or the nature of their activities makes such qualification necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified or in good standing as would not have a material adverse effect on it.

(ii) If Purchaser is an entity, the address of its principal place of business is as set forth on the signature page hereto, and if Purchaser is an individual, the address of its principal residence is as set forth on the signature page hereto.

(b) Authority; Validity and Effect of Agreement.

(i) If Purchaser is an entity, Purchaser has the requisite corporate or other entity power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and any documents contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. The execution and delivery of each Transaction Document by Purchaser, the performance by Purchaser of its obligations thereunder, and all other necessary corporate or other entity action on the part of Purchaser have been duly authorized by its board of directors or similar governing body, and no other corporate or other entity proceedings on the part of Purchaser is necessary for Purchaser to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents and perform its obligations thereunder.

(ii) Each of the Transaction Documents has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by Purchaser and, assuming each has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company, each constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, in accordance with its terms.

(c) No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents. Neither the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by Purchaser nor the performance by Purchaser of its obligations, thereunder will: (i) if Purchaser is an entity, conflict with Purchaser’s articles of incorporation or bylaws, or other similar organizational documents; (ii) violate any statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation, applicable to Purchaser or any of the properties or assets of Purchaser; or (iii) violate, breach, be in conflict with or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or permit the termination of any provision of, or result in the termination of, the acceleration of the maturity of, or the acceleration of the performance of any obligation of Purchaser under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any properties, assets or business of Purchaser under, any material contract or any order, judgment or decree to which Purchaser is a party or by which it or any of its assets or properties is bound or encumbered except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such violations, breaches, conflicts, defaults or other occurrences which, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on its obligation to perform its covenants under this Agreement.

(d) Accredited Investor. Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act. If Purchaser is an entity, Purchaser was not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares, and, if it was, all of Purchaser’s equity owners are “accredited investors” as defined above.

(e) No Government Review. Purchaser understands that neither the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) nor any securities commission or other governmental authority of any state, country or other jurisdiction has approved the issuance of the Shares or passed upon or endorsed the merits of this Agreement, the Shares, or any of the other documents relating to the proposed Offering, or confirmed the accuracy of, determined the adequacy of, or reviewed this Agreement, the Shares or such other documents.

(f) Investment Intent. The Shares are being acquired for the Purchaser’s own account for investment purposes only, not as a nominee or agent and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Purchaser further represents that Purchaser does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or third person with respect to any of the Shares.

(g) Restrictions on Transfer. Purchaser understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any state securities law, and may not be, directly or indirectly, sold, transferred, offered for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act and registration or

qualification under applicable state securities laws or the availability of an exemption therefrom. In any case where such an exemption is relied upon by Purchaser from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the registration or qualification requirements of such state securities laws, Purchaser shall furnish the Company with an opinion of counsel stating that the proposed sale or other disposition of such securities may be effected without registration under the Securities Act and will not result in any violation of any applicable state securities laws relating to the registration or qualification of securities for sale, such counsel and opinion to be satisfactory to the Company. Purchaser acknowledges that it is able to bear the economic risks of an investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time, and that its overall commitment to investments that are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to its net worth.

(h) Investment Experience. Purchaser has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in financial, tax and business matters in general, and investments in securities in particular, that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Shares, and Purchaser has made such investigations in connection herewith as it deemed necessary or desirable so as to make an informed investment decision without relying upon the Company for legal or tax advice related to this investment. In making its decision to acquire the Shares, Purchaser has not relied upon any information other than information provided to Purchaser by the Company or its representatives and contained herein.

(i) Access to Information. Purchaser acknowledges that it has had access to and has reviewed all documents and records relating to the Company, including, but not limited to, the Company’s Annual Report on SEC Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 attached hereto as Exhibit A, the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2013, the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2013, the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 12, 2013, the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 13, 2013 any Quarterly Report on SEC Form 10-Q, or Current Report on SEC Form 8-K filed with the SEC after October [_], 2013 and before the date this Agreement is executed (as such documents have been amended since the date of their filing, collectively, the “Company SEC Documents”), that it has deemed necessary in order to make an informed investment decision with respect to an investment in the Shares; that it has had the opportunity to ask representatives of the Company certain questions and request certain additional information regarding the terms and conditions of such investment and the finances, operations, business and prospects of the Company and has had any and all such questions and requests answered to its satisfaction; and that it understands the risks and other considerations relating to such investment. Purchaser understands any statement contained in the Company SEC Documents shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for the purposes of this Agreement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other document subsequently filed with the SEC modifies or supersedes such statement.

(j) Reliance on Representations. Purchaser understands that the Shares are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Purchaser to acquire the Shares. Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that any information that Purchaser has heretofore furnished or furnishes herewith to the Company is complete and accurate, and further

represents and warrants that it will notify and supply corrective information to the Company immediately upon the occurrence of any change therein occurring prior to the Company’s issuance of the Shares. Within five (5) days after receipt of a request from the Company, Purchaser will provide such information and deliver such documents as may reasonably be necessary to comply with any and all laws and regulations to which the Company is subject.

(k) No General Solicitation. Purchaser is unaware of, and in deciding to participate in the Offering is in no way relying upon, and did not become aware of the Offering through or as a result of, any form of general solicitation or general advertising including, without limitation, any article, notice, advertisement or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio or the internet, in connection with the Offering.

(l) Placement and Finder’s Fees. No agent, broker, investment banker, finder, financial advisor or other person acting on behalf of Purchaser or under its authority is or will be entitled to any broker’s or finder’s fee or any other commission or similar fee, directly or indirectly, in connection with the Offering, and no person is entitled to any fee or commission or like payment in respect thereof based in any way on agreements, arrangements or understanding made by or on behalf of Purchaser.

(m) Investment Risks. Purchaser understands that purchasing Shares in the Offering will subject Purchaser to certain risks, including, but not limited to, each of the following:

(i) The offering price of the Shares offered hereby has been determined solely by the Company and does not necessarily bear any relationship to the value of the Company’s assets, current or potential earnings of the Company, or any other recognized criteria used for measuring value and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the offering price of the Shares is representative of the actual value of the Shares.

(ii) In order to capitalize the Company, execute its business plan, and for other corporate purposes, the Company has issued, and expects to issue additional shares of Common Stock, securities exercisable or convertible into shares of Common Stock, or debt. Such securities have been and may be issued for a purchase price consisting of cash, services or other consideration that may be materially different than the purchase price of the Shares. The issuance of any such securities may result in substantial dilution to the relative ownership interests of the Company’s existing shareholders and substantial reduction in net book value per share. Additional equity securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the holders of Common Stock, and any debt financing may involve restrictive covenants that may limit the Company’s operating flexibility.

(iii) An investment in the Shares may involve certain material legal, accounting and federal and state tax consequences. Purchaser should consult with its legal counsel, accountant and/or business adviser as to the legal, accounting, tax and related matters accompanying such an investment.

(iv) There is no minimum amount required to be raised in this Offering and, therefore, the Company may not generate enough net proceeds from this Offering to execute its business plan or satisfy its working capital requirements.

(n) Legends. The certificates and agreements evidencing the Shares shall have endorsed thereon the following legend (and appropriate notations thereof will be made in the Company’s stock transfer books), and stop transfer instructions reflecting these restrictions on transfer will be placed with the transfer agent of the Shares:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN TAKEN BY THE REGISTERED OWNER FOR INVESTMENT, AND WITHOUT A VIEW TO RESALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR DISPOSED OF WITHOUT AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH TRANSFER OR DISPOSITION DOES NOT VIOLATE THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, THE RULES AND REGULATIONS THEREUNDER OR OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS.

(o) Purchaser is directed to review the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) website at www.treas.gov. before making the following representations. Purchaser represents that no part of the Aggregate Purchase Price set forth on the signature page hereto was directly or indirectly derived from activities that may contravene federal, state or international laws and regulations, including anti-money laundering laws and regulations. Federal regulations and executive orders administered by OFAC prohibit, among other things, the engagement in transaction with, and the provision of services to, certain foreign countries, territories, entities and individuals. The lists of OFAC prohibited countries, territories, persons and entities can be found at the OFAC website. In addition, the programs administered by OFAC prohibit dealing with individuals or entities in certain countries regardless of whether such individuals or entities appear on the OFAC lists. Purchaser hereby represents that none of the following is named on the OFAC list, nor is a person or entity prohibited under the OFAC programs: (i) the Purchaser, (ii) any person controlling or controlled by the Purchaser, (iii) if the undersigned is an entity, any person having a beneficial interest in the Purchaser, or (iv) any person for whom the undersigned is acting as agent or nominee in connection with this investment. The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that, by law, the Company may be required to disclose the identity of the Purchaser to OFAC.

(p) The Purchaser acknowledges that due to anti-money laundering regulations within their respective jurisdictions, the Company and/or any person acting on behalf of the Company may require further documentation verifying the Purchaser’s identity and the source of funds used to purchase Shares before this Agreement can be accepted. The Purchaser further agrees to provide the Company at any time with such information as the Company determines to be necessary and appropriate to verify compliance with the anti-money laundering regulations of any applicable jurisdiction or to respond to requests for information concerning the identity of the Purchaser from any governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or financial institution in connection with its anti-money laundering compliance procedures, and to update such information as necessary.

4. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to Purchaser as follows:

(a) Organization and Qualification. The Company is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with the corporate power and authority to own and operate its business as presently conducted, except where the failure to be or have any of the foregoing would not have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other entity to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of its properties owned or held under lease or the nature of their activities makes such qualification necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified or in good standing as would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

(b) Authority; Validity and Effect of Agreement.

(i) The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver each of the Transaction Documents, perform its obligations thereunder, and conduct the Offering. The execution and delivery of each of the Transaction Documents by the Company, the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder, the transactions contemplated thereby, the Offering, and all other necessary corporate action on the part of the Company have been duly authorized by its board of directors, and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize each of the Transaction Documents or the Offering. Each of the Transaction Documents has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming that each has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Purchaser, each constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(ii) The Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable with no personal liability resulting solely from the ownership of such Shares and will be free and clear of all liens, charges, restrictions, claims and encumbrances imposed by or through the Company.

(c) No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents. Neither the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company nor the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder will: (i) conflict with the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws; (ii) violate any statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation, applicable to the Company or any of the properties or assets of the Company; or (iii) violate, breach, be in conflict with or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or permit the termination of any provision of, or result in the termination of, the acceleration of the maturity of, or the acceleration of the performance of any obligation of the Company, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any properties, assets or business of the Company under, any material contract or any order, judgment or decree to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its assets or properties is bound or encumbered except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such violations, breaches, conflicts, defaults or other occurrences which, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on its obligation to perform its covenants under this Agreement.

(d) SEC Reports and Financial Statements. The Company has filed with the SEC, and has heretofore made available to Purchaser, true and complete copies of all forms, reports, schedules, statements and other documents required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act. In addition, the Company has incorporated by reference into this Agreement the Company SEC Documents. As of their respective dates or, if amended, as of the date of the last such amendment, the Company SEC Documents, including any financial statements or schedules included therein: (i) did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (ii) complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the Securities Act, as the case may be, and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder. Each of the financial statements included in the Company SEC Documents have been prepared from, and are in accordance with, the books and records of the Company, comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and with the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and fairly present the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of the dates thereof or for the periods presented therein (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments not material in amount).

5. Indemnification. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its respective affiliates and agents from and against any and all demands, claims, actions or causes of action, judgments, assessments, losses, liabilities, damages or penalties and reasonable attorneys’ fees and related disbursements incurred by the Company that arise out of or result from a breach of any representations or warranties made by Purchaser herein, and Purchaser agrees that in the event of any breach of any representations or warranties made by Purchaser herein, the Company may, at its option, forthwith rescind the sale of the Shares to Purchaser.

6. Piggyback Registration.

(a) Until the earlier of (i) the date as of which the Purchaser may sell all of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) owned by Purchaser without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 (including, without limitation, volume restrictions) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) or (ii) the date on which the Purchaser shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities owned by Purchaser (the “Registration Period”), whenever the Company proposes to register any shares of its Common Stock under the Securities Act (other than a registration effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a transaction to which Rule 145 of the Securities Act is applicable, or a Registration Statement on Form S-4, S-8 or any successor form thereto or another form not available for registering the Shares for sale to the public), whether for its own account or for the account of one or more stockholders of the Company (it being understood that the present intention of the Company shall be to file a Registration Statement on Form S-1 within thirty (30) days of the Closing) and the form of Registration Statement to be used may be used for any

registration of Shares (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give prompt notice (in any event no later than 10 days prior to the filing of such Registration Statement) to the Purchaser and the other holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and, subject to Section 6(b) and Section 6(c), shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received requests for inclusion from the holders of Registrable Securities within 5 days after the Company’s notice has been given to each such holder . The Company may postpone or withdraw the filing or the effectiveness of a Piggyback Registration at any time in its sole discretion and/or reduce the amount of shares to be included in such registration as a result of rules, regulations, positions or releases issued or actions taken by the SEC pursuant to its authority with respect to Rule 415, promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act. For purposes of this Section 6, the term “Registrable Securities” means the Shares any capital stock of the Company issued or issuable with respect to the Shares including, without limitation, as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, exchange or similar event or otherwise.

(b) If during the Registration Period, a Piggyback Registration is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company and the managing underwriter advises the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities (if any holders of Registrable Securities have elected to include Registrable Securities in such Piggyback Registration) in writing that in its opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration, including all Registrable Securities and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in any such registration would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock to be sold in such offering and/or the Company is unable to include in such registration all of the Registrable Securities as a result of rules, regulations, positions or releases issued or actions taken by the SEC pursuant to its authority with respect to Rule 415, promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell; (ii) second, the number of shares of Common Stock required to be included as a result of contractual demand or mandatory registration rights, allocated among such holders in such manner as they may agree; (iii) third, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by holders of Registrable Securities, allocated pro rata among all such holders on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder or in such manner as they may otherwise agree; and (iv) fourth, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by holders of Common Stock (other than holders of Registrable Securities), allocated among such holders in such manner as they may agree.

(c) If during the Registration Period, a Piggyback Registration is initiated as an underwritten offering on behalf of a holder of Common Stock other than Registrable Securities, and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that in its opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration, including all Registrable Securities and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in any such registration would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock to be sold in such

offering and/or the Company is unable to include in such registration all of the Registrable Securities as a result of rules, regulations, positions or releases issued or actions taken by the SEC pursuant to its authority with respect to Rule 415, promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the number of shares of Common Stock required to be included as a result of contractual demand or mandatory registration rights, (ii) second, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by the holder(s) requesting such registration, allocated among such holders in such manner as they may agree, (iii) third, by the holders of Registrable Securities, allocated pro rata among the number of Registrable Securities, as applicable, owned by all such holders or in such manner as they may otherwise agree; and (iv) fourth, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by other holders of Common Stock, allocated among such holders in such manner as they may agree.

(d) If any Piggyback Registration is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company, the Company shall select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering.
