3.1           Termination.
This Agreement may be terminated by the Purchasers or by the Company by written notice to the other party if the Closing has not
been consummated on or before May 31, 2017; provided, however, that no such termination will affect the right of either party to
sue for any breach by the other party. 


 


3.2           Fees
and Expenses. Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if
any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance

the delivery of any Shares to the Purchasers. 


 


3.3           Entire
Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, the Prospectus and the Prospectus
Supplement, contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede
all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been
merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules. 


 


3.4           Amendments;
Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended except in a written instrument
signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and the Purchasers, or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom
enforcement of any such waived provision is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement
of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of
any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder
in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. 


 


3.5           Successors

assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of

3.7           Governing
Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents
shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard
to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement
and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party
hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced
exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the County of Hennepin, Minnesota. Each party hereby irrevocably submits
to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the County of Hennepin, Minnesota, for the adjudication
of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with
respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any
suit, action or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, or that such court
is an improper or inconvenient venue for such suit, action or Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service
of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered
or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under
this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If either
party shall commence a suit, action or Proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then the prevailing party
in such suit, action or Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable
costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such suit, action or Proceeding. 


 


3.8           Execution.
This Agreement may be executed by electronic signature and in counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered
one and the same agreement and this Agreement shall become effective when each party has delivered its signature to the other party.
In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data
file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed),
with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof. 


 


3.9           Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal,
void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full
force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially
reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated
by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that
they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable. 


 


3.10         Remedies.
In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Purchasers
and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages
would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents
and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy
at law would be adequate. 


 


3.11         Independent
Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document
are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the
performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein
or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute
the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without
limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for
any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented
by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. The Company has elected to provide
all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required
or requested to do so by any of the Purchasers. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement
and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers
collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.


 




    	Stock Purchase Agreement	 	Page 5



     


    

 


3.12         Liquidated
Damages. The Company’s obligation to pay any amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation
of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid amounts have been paid, notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or
security pursuant to which such amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled. 


 


3.13         Construction.
The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction
Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting
party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and
every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse
and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after
the date of this Agreement. 


 


3.14         WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY, THE
PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY,
IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVE FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
