Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time any Purchaser Indemnitee shall have requested the Company to reimburse
such Purchaser Indemnitee for any Loss as contemplated by this Section 7.02, the Company agrees that it shall be liable

warranties and covenants of the Company, nor the right to indemnification of any Purchaser Indemnitee making a claim under this
Article VII with respect thereto, shall be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf
of a Purchaser Indemnitee (including by any of its Representatives} or by reason of the fact that a Purchaser Indemnitee or any
of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by
reason of a Purchaser Indemnitee’s waiver of any condition set forth in Section 5.02.


 




    	 	28	 



     


    

 


Section
7.06         Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 8.12,
the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising

Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein: (x) to Articles, Sections, Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits mean the
Articles and Sections of, and Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits attached to, this Agreement; (y) to an agreement, instrument or
other document means such agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the

Section
8.04         Removal of Legend. The Company, at its sole cost, shall remove
the legend described in Section 4.05 (or instruct its transfer agent to so remove such legend) from the certificates evidencing
the Shares issued and sold to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement if (A) such Shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act, (B) such Shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 (if the transferor is not an
Affiliate of the Company), or (C) such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to
be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) as to such
securities and without volume or manner of sale restrictions. In connection with a sale of the Shares by Purchaser in reliance
on Rule 144, Purchaser or its broker shall deliver to the transfer agent and the Company a customary broker representation letter
providing to the transfer agent and the Company any information the Company deems reasonably necessary to determine that the sale
of the Shares is made in compliance with Rule 144, including, where and as may be appropriate, a certification that the Purchaser
is not an Affiliate of the Company and regarding the length of time the Shares have been held. Upon receipt of such representation
letter, the Company shall promptly direct its transfer agent to remove the legend referred to in Section 4.05 within two
(2) Business Days from the appropriate book-entry accounts maintained by the transfer agent, and the Company shall bear all costs
associated therewith. If Purchaser is not an Affiliate of the Company and has held the Shares for at least one year, if the book-entry
account of such Shares still bears the legend referred to in Section 4.05, the Company agrees, upon request of Purchaser,
to take all steps necessary to effect the removal of the legend described in Section 4.05 within two (2) Business Days
from the appropriate book-entry accounts maintained by the transfer agent, and the Company shall bear all costs associated therewith,
regardless of whether the request is made in connection with a sale or otherwise, so long as Purchaser provides to the Company
any information the Company deems reasonably necessary to determine that the legend is no longer required under the Securities
Act or applicable state laws, including (if there is no such registration statement), where and as may be appropriate, a certification
that the holder is not an Affiliate of the Company and regarding the length of time the Shares have been held. The date by which
such legend is so required to be removed pursuant to this Section 8.04 is referred to herein as the “Required
Legend Removal Date.”

Section
8.05         Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference
only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.


 


Section
8.06         Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement
is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any
other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.
Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties hereto 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 greatest
extent possible.


 


Section
8.07         Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents to which Purchaser is a party constitute the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect
to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements,
both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body
of this Agreement and those in the other Transaction Documents to which Purchaser is a party, the Exhibits and Disclosure Schedules
(other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Disclosure Schedules), the statements in the body of this Agreement
will control


 


Section
8.08         Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither party
may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shah not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, that prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser may, without the prior written consent of
the Company, assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to one or more of its direct or indirect wholly-owned
subsidiaries. No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder.

by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by
such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure
to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed
as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICE OR OTHER DOCUMENT BY MAIL TO SUCH PARTY’S ADDRESS
SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL BE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS FOR ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT. THE
PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH
COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT
IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS TO
WHICH PURCHASER IS A PARTY IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS TO WHICH PURCHASER IS A PARTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR BY THE OTHER
TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS TO WHICH PURCHASER IS A PARTY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE

damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties
shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law
or in equity.


 


Section
8.13         Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed
copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same
legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.


 


Section
8.14         Termination.


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be terminated at any time at or prior to the Closing by Purchaser (with respect
to Purchaser only), upon a breach in any material respect by the Company of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement.


 


(b)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at any time at or prior to the Closing if a statute,
rule, order, decree or regulation shall have been enacted or promulgated, or if any action shall have been taken by any Governmental
Authority of competent jurisdiction that permanently restrains, permanently precludes, permanently enjoins or otherwise permanently
prohibits the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or makes the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
illegal.


 


(c)          In
the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in this Section 8.14, this Agreement shall forthwith become
null and void. In the event of such termination, there shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto, except as set forth

any successor or assign of the Company (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise) that may be issued in respect
of, in exchange for or in substitution of, the Shares, and shall be appropriately adjusted for combinations, unit splits, recapitalizations
and the like occurring after the date of this Agreement.

Section
8.16         Failure to Timely Deliver; Buy-In. If the Company
improperly fails to remove the legend referred to in Section 4.05 by the Required Legend Removal Date and if on or after
the Business Day immediately following the Required Legend Removal Date the Purchaser (or any other Person in respect, or on behalf,
of Purchaser) purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale
by such Purchaser of all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock, or a sale of a number of shares of Common Stock
equal to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock, that such Purchaser so anticipated receiving from the Company
without any restrictive legend, then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Purchaser, the Company shall, within
five (5) Business Days after such Purchaser’s request and in such Purchaser’s sole discretion, either (x) pay cash
to such Purchaser in an amount equal to such Purchaser’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other
out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket
expenses, if any) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so deliver such certificate
or credit such Purchaser’s balance account shall terminate and such shares shall be cancelled, or (y) promptly honor its
obligation to remove the legend referred to in Section 4.05 from such number of shares of Common Stock that would have
been so delivered if the Company timely complied with its obligations hereunder and pay cash to such Purchaser in an amount equal
to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Shares that the Company was required to deliver
to such Purchaser by the Required Legend Removal Date multiplied by (B) the lowest closing sale price of the Common Stock on any
Business Day during the period commencing on the date of the delivery by such Purchaser to the Company of the applicable Shares
and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this clause (y).
