Section 4.04
Investment Representations.


 


		(a)	Buyer understands and agrees that the consummation of this Agreement including the delivery of the Shares
to Buyer as contemplated hereby constitutes the offer and sale of securities under the Securities Act and applicable state statutes and
that the Shares are being acquired for Buyer’s own account and not with a present view towards the public sale or distribution thereof,
except pursuant to sales registered or exempted from registration under the Securities Act.



 


		(b)	Buyer is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Regulation D Rule 501(a) under
the Securities Act (an “Accredited Investor”).



 


		(c)	Buyer either alone or together with its representatives and/or advisors, has such knowledge, sophistication
and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment
in the Shares, and has evaluated the merits and risks of the proposed investment. Buyer is able to bear the economic risk of an investment
in the Shares and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.



 


		(d)	Buyer understands that the Shares are being offered and sold to Buyer in reliance upon specific exemptions
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and

and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Shares which have been requested by Buyer or its advisors.
Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. Buyer is aware that an investment

other considerations relating to the purchase of the Shares.

		(f)	Buyer has adequate means of providing for Buyer’s current financial needs and foreseeable contingencies
and has no need for liquidity of its investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time, and after purchasing the Shares, Buyer
will be able to provide for any foreseeable current needs and possible personal contingencies. Buyer must bear and acknowledges the substantial
economic risks of the investment in the Shares including the risk of illiquidity and is able to afford the complete loss of its investment
in the Shares.



 


		(g)	Buyer understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental
agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares.



 


		(h)	Buyer understands that except as otherwise set forth herein: (i) the Shares have not been and are not
being registered under the Securities Act or any state or foreign securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or
transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder, or (B) Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, in
a form generally acceptable to the Company, to the effect that such securities to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned
or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements; (ii) any sale of such securities made in reliance on Rule
144 under the Securities Act (or a successor rule thereto) (“Rule 144”) may be made only in accordance with the
terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of such securities under circumstances in which the seller (or
the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require
compliance with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder; and (iii) other
than as set forth in this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation
to register such securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption
thereunder. There can be no assurance that there will be any market or resale for the Shares, nor can there be any assurance that the
Shares will be freely transferable at any time in the foreseeable future.



 


		(i)	Buyer is not purchasing the Shares as a result of any “General Solicitation” (as defined in
Regulation D) including, but not limited to, any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Shares published
in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or, to the knowledge of
such Buyer, any other general solicitation or general advertisement.



 


		(j)	Buyer understands that, except as set forth in Section 5.02 of this Agreement, the certificates or other
instruments representing the Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop transfer order may
be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement
or (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance and
sale of the Shares to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that (x) the Company shall not be liable to any Indemnitee
under subsection (c) of this Section 5.01 to the extent, and only to the extent, that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined
by a final judgment (from which no further appeals are available) that such Indemnified Liabilities resulted directly and primarily from
any acts or failures to act undertaken or omitted to be taken by the Buyer through its bad faith or willful misconduct, (y) the forgoing
indemnity shall not apply to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Indemnified Liabilities resulted
directly and primarily from a breach of any of the Buyer’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this
Agreement, and (z) the Company shall not be liable under this Section 5.01 for any settlement by an Indemnitee effected without the Company’s
prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company shall reimburse any Indemnitee promptly upon demand
(with accompanying presentation of documentary evidence) for all legal and other costs and expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee
in connection with: (i) any action, suit, claim or proceeding, whether at law or in equity, to enforce compliance by the Company with
any provision of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement or (ii) any other any action, suit, claim or proceeding, whether
at law or in equity, with respect to which it is entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.01; provided that an Indemnitee shall
promptly reimburse the Company for all such legal and other costs and expenses to the extent a court of competent jurisdiction shall have
determined by a final judgment (from which no further appeals are available) that such Indemnitee was not entitled to such reimbursement.
An Indemnitee’s right to indemnification or other remedies based upon the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
of the Company set forth in this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement shall not in any way be affected by any investigation
or knowledge of such Indemnitee. Such representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall not be affected or deemed waived by
reason of the fact that an Indemnitee knew or should have known that any representation or warranty might be inaccurate or that the Company
failed to comply with any agreement or covenant. Any investigation by such Indemnitee shall be for its own protection only and shall not
affect or impair any right or remedy hereunder. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any
reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is
permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations
under this Section 5.01 shall be the same as those set forth in Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Section 5.01, the Company shall not be obligated to pay an Indemnitee any sums otherwise due under this Section
5.01 if the Company has already paid the Indemnitee such sums for the same Indemnified Liabilities under Section 5 of the Registration
Rights Agreement.

Section 5.02
Legend Removal; Delivery Failure. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the legend
set forth and referred to in Section 4.04(j) of this Agreement from the Shares and to issue a certificate without such legend to the holder
of the Shares upon which it is stamped, or to issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at DTC, unless
otherwise required by state securities or “blue sky” laws, at such time as: (i) the resale of such Shares is registered under
the Securities Act under an effective registration statement, (ii) Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, in
a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that such Shares to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned
or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements; or (iii) if such Shares are eligible to be sold under Rule
144, the Buyer provides the Company with reasonable assurance in writing that the Shares are being sold, assigned or transferred pursuant
to Rule 144 (which shall not include an opinion of Buyer’s counsel). In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company agrees that, following
the effective date of the initial Registration Statement to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Registration Rights
Agreement, or at such time as such legend is not required to be placed upon certificates representing the Shares as set forth in Section
4.04(h) or this Section 5.02, the Company shall, no later than two (2) Business Days following the delivery by the Buyer to the Company
or its transfer agent of a certificate representing Shares issued with a restrictive legend (such second (2nd) Trading Day,
the “Legend Removal Date”), either: (A) issue and deliver (or cause to be issued and delivered) to the Buyer a certificate
or DRS Statement representing such Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends or (B) cause its transfer agent to credit
the Buyer’s or its designee’s account at DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system with a number of shares
of Common Stock equal to the number of Shares represented by the certificate so delivered by the Buyer. If the Company fails on or prior
to the Legend Removal Date to either (i) issue and deliver (or cause to be issued and delivered) to the Buyer a certificate or DRS Statement
representing the Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends or (ii) cause its transfer agent to credit the balance account
of the Buyer or its designee at DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system with a number of shares of Common Stock
equal to the number of the Shares represented by the certificate delivered by the Buyer pursuant hereto (a “Delivery Failure”),
and if on or after the Legend Removal Date the Buyer purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to
deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Buyer of shares of Common Stock that the Buyer anticipated receiving from the Company without
any restrictive legend, then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Buyer’s request, pay cash to the Buyer in
an amount equal to the Buyer’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so
purchased, at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver a certificate or credit the Buyer’s or its designee’s
account at DTC for such shares of Common Stock shall terminate and such shares shall be cancelled.


 


Section 5.03
Termination. In the event that the First Tranche Closing shall not have occurred within ten (10) days after the date of
this Agreement, then the Buyer shall have the right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement at any time on or after the close
of business on such date without liability of the Buyer to any other Party; provided, however, the right to terminate its obligations
under this Agreement pursuant to this first sentence of Section 5.03 shall not be available to the Buyer if the failure of the First Tranche
Closing to have occurred by such date is the result of the Buyer’s breach of this Agreement. In the event the Initial Registration
Statement is not filed by the applicable Filing Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) therefor or declared effective
by the Commission by the applicable Effective Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) therefor, or the Company is otherwise
in breach or default in any material respect under any of the other provisions of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement,
and, if such failure, breach or default is capable of being cured, such failure, breach or default is not cured within ten (10) Business
Days after notice of such failure, breach or default is delivered to the Company pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof, then the Buyer shall
have the right to terminate its obligations to purchase the Second Tranche Purchase Shares under this Agreement at any time thereafter
and prior to the Second Tranche Closing without liability of the Buyer to any other Party; provided, however, the right to terminate its
obligations under this Agreement pursuant to this second sentence of Section 5.03 shall not be available to the Buyer if the failure of
the Registration Statement to be filed by the applicable Filing Deadline or declared effective by the applicable Effective Date therefor
is the result of the Buyer’s breach of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 5.03
shall be deemed to release any Party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or
the Registration Rights Agreement or to impair the right of any Party to compel specific performance by any other Party of its obligations
under this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement.

                                                                 “Share Dilutive Issuance”), except for Exempt Issuances, then the Company shall, within two (2) business days after such
                                                                 Share Dilutive Issuance, pay to Buyer as a penalty an amount in cash equal to the number of Shares theretofore purchased by Buyer
                                                                 hereunder multiplied by the difference between (A) the Per Share Price and (B) the greater of (i) the price per share of Common
                                                                 Stock paid in the Share Dilutive Issuance and (ii) the Floor Price. For purposes of this Agreement, the Floor Price shall be

or exchange of any Common Stock Equivalents held by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates at any time prior to or after the date of this
Agreement, (iii) Company securities issued or issuable as full or partial consideration in connection with a strategic merger, acquisition,
exchange, consolidation or purchase of substantially all of the securities or assets of a corporation or other entity so long as such
issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration
rights, (iv) the Company’s issuance of securities in connection with strategic license agreements and other partnering arrangements
so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time
granted registration rights, (v) the Company’s issuance of securities upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any securities
exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock or other Common Stock Equivalents issued and outstanding and

options to purchase Common Stock to employees, directors, and consultants, pursuant to plans that have been approved by a majority of
the stockholders and a majority of the independent members of the board of directors of the Company or in existence as such plans are
constituted on the date of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Common Stock Equivalents” means any securities
of the Company which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred
stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise

at its expense, will promptly (but in no event more than one (1) Business Day after a Share Dilutive Issuance or other event requiring
adjustment or readjustment in the Shares) cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such penalty in accordance
with the terms hereof, and prepare and deliver to the Buyer in accordance with Section 6.01 hereof a certificate setting forth such penalty
and showing in detail the facts upon which such penalty is based, including a statement of the price per share of the shares of Common

Article III (Representations, Warranties of the Company), Article V (Indemnification; Additional Covenants) (excluding Sections 5.02,
5.04 and 5.05), and this Article VI (Miscellaneous) shall remain in full force and effect indefinitely notwithstanding such termination,

of such Party contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy and nothing herein
shall limit such Party’s right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the other Party to comply with the terms of this Agreement.
The Company and the Buyer acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement
were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that either Party shall
be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement by the other Party and to
enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof (without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security
being required), this being in addition to any other remedy to which either Party may be entitled by law or equity.
