to perform its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

Consents or Approvals. No consent, approval, order, or authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, or filing

(e)          Investment
Representations.


 


(i)            Buyer
and each member of Buyer is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Buyer agrees to furnish any additional
information requested by the Company to assure compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws in connection with
the purchase and sale of the Shares.


 


(ii)           Buyer
is purchasing the Shares solely for its own account for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection
with, any distribution thereof in violation of federal or state securities laws. Buyer does not have a present intention to sell
any of the Shares, nor a present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to effect any distribution of any of
the Shares to or through any person or entity in violation of federal or state securities laws. Buyer acknowledges that it (i)
has such knowledge, skill, and experience in business, financial, and investment matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of an investment in the Company, (ii) is able to bear the financial risks associated with an investment in the Company,
and (iii) has been given access to such information concerning the Company and to the officers of the Company as it has deemed
necessary or appropriate to enable it to make an informed investment decision concerning the purchase of the Shares.


 






    	 	5	 



     


    

 


(iii)          Buyer
understands that the Shares are being offered and sold on reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of
federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of the representations and
warranties made by Buyer in this Agreement in order to determine the availability of such exemptions. Buyer understands that no
federal or state agency or any government or governmental agency has passed upon the merits or risks of an investment in the Shares
or made any finding or determination concerning the fairness or advisability of this investment.


 


(iv)          Buyer
understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable federal securities laws and that the Securities
Act and the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) provide in substance that
Buyer may dispose of the Shares only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom,
and Buyer understands that the Company has no obligation or intention to register any of the Shares, or to take action so as to
permit sales pursuant to the Securities Act. Buyer acknowledges that it is familiar with the nature of the limitations imposed
by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder on the transfer of securities.


 


(v)           Buyer
acknowledges that neither the Company nor any other person or entity offered to sell the Shares to it by means of any form of general
solicitation or advertising, including (A) any advertisement, article, notice, or other communication published in any newspaper,
magazine, or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, or (B) any seminar or meeting whose attendees were invited by
any general solicitation or general advertising.


 


(vi)          With
the assistance of Buyer’s own professional advisors, to the extent that Buyer has deemed appropriate, Buyer has made its
own legal, tax, accounting, and financial evaluation of the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares and the consequences
of this Agreement. Buyer has considered the suitability of the Shares as an investment in light of its own circumstances and financial
condition and Buyer is able to bear the risks associated with an investment in the Shares and its authority to invest in the Shares.
Buyer recognizes that investing in the Shares involves substantial risks, and has taken full cognizance of and understands all
of the risk factors related to the acquisition of the Shares. Buyer has not relied upon any representations (other than the representations
and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 3) or other information from the Company or any of its agents or representatives.

any Liens to be created on any Shares. In addition, so long as the Shares are held in the Escrow Account they may not be taken

Shares in violation of this Section 5(c) shall be void ab initio.


 


(d)          Voting.
With respect to all matters presented to the Company’s stockholders, Buyer shall vote all of the Shares then held by Buyer

are not held by Buyer are voted.


 


6.            Effects
of Merger. If the Merger is consummated, in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company and Buyer shall

7.            Effects
of Termination of Merger Agreement.


 


(a)          Except
as provided below, in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time, the Company will purchase from
Buyer, and Buyer will sell to the Company, all of the Shares for a cash purchase price equal to the Purchase Price. As promptly
as practicable (and in any event within two Business Days (as defined in the Merger Agreement)) following any such termination
of the Merger Agreement, (i) Buyer and the Company shall deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to deliver all
of the Shares (and the Stock Certificate and Share Transfer Documents) held in the Escrow Account to the Company or its designee,
(ii) Buyer shall deliver to the Company all such other documents and instruments as are necessary to transfer to the Company (including,
if requested by the Company, a transfer of ownership form, duly executed in blank (with a medallion guarantee), in a form acceptable
to the Company’s transfer agent, in respect of all of the Shares), and shall be deemed to have transferred, and to have represented
and warranted to the Company that it has transferred, to the Company, all of the Shares, free and clear of all Liens, other than
Liens imposed by applicable federal and state securities laws, and shall cease to have any rights with respect to the Shares, except
the right to receive the consideration to be paid to Buyer pursuant to clause (iii) below, and (iii) upon receipt of all of the
Shares (and the Stock Certificate and Share Transfer Documents), the Company shall deliver to Buyer an amount equal to the Purchase

(b)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in Section 9(a), in the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective

to the Company all of the Shares in satisfaction of the Parent Termination Fee, and the Company will upon receipt thereof pay to
Buyer an amount equal to the Cash Payment. In such case, as promptly as practicable (and in any event within two Business Days)

and instruments as are necessary to transfer to the Company (including, if requested by the Company, a transfer of ownership form,
duly executed in blank (with a medallion guarantee), in a form acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent, in respect of
all of the Shares), and shall be deemed to have transferred, and to have represented and warranted to the Company that it has transferred,
to the Company, all of the Shares, free and clear of all Liens, other than Liens imposed by applicable federal and state securities
laws, and shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the consideration to be paid to Buyer
pursuant to clause (iii) below, and (iii) upon receipt of all of the Shares (and the Stock Certificate and Share Transfer Documents),
the Company will pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Cash Payment, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account

8.            Severability.
If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public
policy or the application of this Agreement to any person or entity or circumstance is invalid or incapable of being enforced by
any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force
and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially
adverse to either party. To such end, the provisions of this Agreement are agreed to be severable. Upon such determination that
any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify
this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order
that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.


 


9.            Assignment.
Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests, or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned, in whole or in part,
by operation of law or otherwise by either of the parties without the prior written consent of the other party. Any purported assignment
in violation of this Section 9 will be null and void ab initio. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement
will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.


 


10.          Expenses.
All fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including legal
fees, shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses.


 


11.          Notices.
Any notice or other communication provided for herein or given hereunder to either party shall be given in the manner contemplated
by the Merger Agreement.


 


12.          Waiver.
No party may waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement except by a duly signed writing referring to the specific provision
to be waived.


 


13.          Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Merger Agreement, the Securities Escrow Agreement, and the Confidentiality Agreement
(as defined in the Merger Agreement) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof,
and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof (other than the Confidentiality Agreement, which will terminate at the Closing (under and as defined in the Merger Agreement)).


 


14.          Parties
in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party, and nothing in this Agreement,
express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity any right, benefit, or remedy of any nature
whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.


 


15.          Governing
Law; Jurisdiction.


 


(a)          This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to the conflicts
of law rules of such state that would direct a matter to another jurisdiction.


 






    	 	9	 



     


    

 


(b)          Each
of the parties (i) agrees that any action, suit, or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising
out of or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether brought by either party or any of
its affiliates or against any party or any of its affiliates) shall be brought, heard, and determined exclusively in the state
courts located in the State of Nevada or, if such courts shall not have jurisdiction, any of the federal courts of the United States
of America located in the State of Nevada, (ii) irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate
appellate courts therefrom) in any such action, suit, or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit, or proceeding in any
such court or that any such action, suit, or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum, (iii)
agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from such court,
and (iv) agrees not to bring any action, suit, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby in any other court. The parties agree that a final trial court judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law; provided,
however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict either party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding,
or any appeal from, such final trial court judgment.


 


16.          Waiver
of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO
A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT
OR THE TRANSACTIONS COTENMPLATED HEREBY. 


 


17.          Specific
Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any provision of this Agreement were not performed
in accordance with the terms hereof and that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement, and
accordingly, the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, without any requirement to post bond, in
addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or equity. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy
of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law, or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy
of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. 


 


18.          Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or other form of electronic transmission) in separate counterparts,
each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
agreement.
