(h) SEC
Reports; Financial Statements. The Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required
to be filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof,
for the two years preceding the date hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was required by law or regulation to file such
material) (the foregoing materials, including the exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein, together with
the Registration Statement, and the Prospectus being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Reports”) on
a timely basis or has received a valid extension of such time of filing and has filed any such SEC Reports prior to the expiration
of any such extension. As of their respective dates, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement
of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. No post-effective amendment to the Registration
Statement reflecting any facts or events arising after the date thereof which represent, individually or in the aggregate, a fundamental
change in the information set forth therein is required to be filed with the Commission. Since December 2007, the Company has not
been an issuer subject to Rule 144(i) under the Securities Act. As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the Company
included in the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations
of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”),
except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements
may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company
and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods
then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments. The agreements and
documents described in the Registration Statement and the SEC Reports conform in all material aspects to the descriptions thereof
contained therein and there are no agreements or other documents required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder
to be described in the Registration Statement or the SEC Reports or to be filed with the Commission as exhibits to the Registration
Statement, that have not been so described or filed. Each agreement or other instrument (however characterized or described) to
which the Company is a party or by which it is or may be bound or affected and (i) that is referred to in the Registration
Statement or the SEC Reports, or (ii) is material to the Company’s business (each, a “Material Agreement”),
has been duly authorized and validly executed by the Company, is in full force and effect in all material respects and is enforceable
against the Company and, to the Company’s knowledge, the other parties thereto, in accordance with its terms, except (x) as
such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights
generally, (y) as enforceability of any indemnification or contribution provision may be limited under the federal and state
securities laws, and (z) that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be
subject to the equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefore may be brought. No Material
Agreement has been assigned by the Company, and neither the Company nor, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, any other
party is in default thereunder and, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, no event has occurred that, with the lapse of
time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default thereunder that has had or that could reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, performance by the Company of the material
provisions of the Material Agreements will not result in a violation of any existing applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment,
order or decree of any governmental agency or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its assets
or businesses, including, without limitation, those relating to environmental laws and regulations. The other financial and statistical
information included in the SEC Reports present fairly, in all material respects, the information included therein and have been
prepared on a basis consistent with that of the financial statements that are included in the SEC Reports and the books and records
of the respective entities presented therein.

threatened against or affecting the Company, any Subsidiary, any VIE, any VIE Subsidiary or any of their respective properties
before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority (federal, state, county, local

or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the Securities, (ii) could, if there

any investigation by the Commission involving the Company or any current or former director or officer of the Company. The Commission

Relations. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(k), no labor dispute exists or, to the knowledge of the Company, is imminent

to result in a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ , VIEs’ or VIE Subsidiaries’
employees is a member of a union that relates to such employee’s relationship with the Company, such Subsidiary, such VIE
and such VIE Subsidiary, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, VIEs, or VIE Subsidiaries is a party to a collective

Subsidiaries, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure
or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant
in favor of any third party, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries, VIEs or VIE Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company, its Subsidiaries,
its VIEs and its VIE Subsidiaries are in compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating
to employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where the failure to be
in compliance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(l) Compliance.
Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(l), neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE Subsidiary: (i) is in default

result in a default by the Company, any Subsidiary, any VIE or any VIE Subsidiary under), nor has the Company or any Subsidiary,
VIE or VIE Subsidiary received notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan

foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including ambient air, surface water, groundwater,
land surface or subsurface strata), including laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals,
pollutants, contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into
the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport
or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands, or demand letters, injunctions, judgments,

have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(n) Regulatory
Permits. The Company, the Subsidiaries, the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations, approvals,
orders, licenses and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities, or by any foreign,
federal, state or local governmental or regulatory authority necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in the
SEC Reports, except where the failure to possess such permits could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect (each, a “Material Permit”), and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE Subsidiary has received
any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit. The disclosures in the Registration
Statement concerning the effects of federal, state, local and all foreign regulation on the Company’s business as currently
contemplated are correct in all material respects.


 


(o) Title
to Assets. The Company, the Subsidiaries, the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to

the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with which the Company, the Subsidiaries,
the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries are in compliance which the failure to so have could have a Material Adverse Effect.


 






    15


     


    

 


(p) Intellectual
Property. The Company, the Subsidiaries, the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries have, or have rights to use, all patents, patent
applications, trademarks, trademark applications, service marks, trade names, trade secrets, inventions, copyrights, licenses and
other intellectual property rights and similar rights necessary or required for use in connection with their respective businesses
as described in the SEC Reports and which the failure to so have could have a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual
Property Rights”). Schedule 3.1(p) sets forth all of the Intellectual Property Rights that the Company, the Subsidiaries,
the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries own or have the rights to use. None of, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE
Subsidiary has received a notice (written or otherwise) that any of, the Intellectual Property Rights has expired, terminated or
been abandoned, or is expected to expire or terminate or be abandoned, within two (2) years from the date of this Agreement. Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE Subsidiary has received, since the date of the latest audited financial statements included
within the SEC Reports, a written notice of a claim or otherwise has any knowledge that the Intellectual Property Rights violate
or infringe upon the rights of any Person, except as could not have or reasonably be expected to not have a Material Adverse Effect.
To the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by
another Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company, its Subsidiaries, VIEs and VIE Subsidiaries have taken
reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties, except
where failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company, the Subsidiaries,
the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries are engaged, including, but not limited to, directors and officers insurance coverage at least
equal to the aggregate Subscription Amount. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, VIE, any VIE Subsidiary has any reason to believe
that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage
from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business without a significant increase in cost.

With Affiliates and Employees. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(r), none of the officers or directors of the Company,
any Subsidiary, any VIE or any VIE Subsidiary and, to the knowledge of the Company, none of the employees of the Company, any Subsidiary,

consulting fees for services rendered, (ii) reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and (iii) other employee

(s) Sarbanes-Oxley;
Internal Accounting Controls. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company, the Subsidiaries, the VIEs and the
VIE Subsidiaries have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e))
for the Company, the Subsidiaries, the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure
that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. The Company’s
certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company, the Subsidiaries,
the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange
Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under
the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based
on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over
financial reporting (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) of the Company, the Subsidiaries, the VIEs and the VIE Subsidiaries
that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting of the
Company and its Subsidiaries.


 


(t) Certain
Fees. Other than the compensation payable to the Placement Agent pursuant to the terms of the Engagement Letter and as set
forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus relating to the placement of the Securities, no brokerage or finder’s
fees or commissions are or will be payable by the Company, any Subsidiary, any VIE or any VIE Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company
to any broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other Person with respect to
the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or
with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section that may be due
in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

not be or be an Affiliate of, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become an “investment company” subject
to registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.


 






    17


     


    

 


(v) Registration
Rights. No Person has any right to cause the Company, any Subsidiary, any VIE or any VIE Subsidiary to effect the registration
under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company, any Subsidiary, any VIE or any VIE Subsidiary.


 


(w) Listing
and Maintenance Requirements. The shares of Common Stock are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange
Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the
registration of the shares of Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission
is contemplating terminating such registration. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(w), the Company has not, in the 12 months
preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market on which the shares of Common Stock are or have been listed
or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market.
The shares of Common Stock are currently eligible for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established
clearing corporation and the Company is current in payment of the fees to the Depository Trust Company (or such other established
clearing corporation) in connection with such electronic transfer.


 


(x) Application
of Takeover Protections. The Company and the Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render
inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement)
or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s certificate of incorporation (or similar charter documents)
or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and
the Company fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation
as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Securities and the Purchasers’ ownership of the Securities.


 


(y) Disclosure.
Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company
confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents or counsel
with any information that it believes constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information which is not otherwise disclosed
in the Registration Statement. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representation
in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All of the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchasers
regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries, VIEs and VIE Subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the transactions contemplated
hereby, including the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement, is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. There are no documents required to be filed with the Commission
in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby that (x) have not been filed as required pursuant to the Securities Act
or (y) will not be filed within the requisite time period. There are no contracts or other documents required to be described in
or to be filed as exhibits or schedules to the Registration Statement, which have not been described or filed as required.  The
press releases disseminated by the Company during the twelve months preceding the date of this Agreement taken as a whole do 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 therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made and when made, not misleading. The
statistical and market-related data included in the Registration Statement, if any, are based on or derived from sources that the
Company reasonably and in good faith believes are reliable and accurate or represent the Company’s good faith estimates that
are made on the basis of data derived from such sources. The Company has obtained all consents required for the inclusion of such
statistical and market-related data in the Registration Statement. No forward-looking statement (within the meaning of Section
27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act) contained in the Registration Statement has been made or reaffirmed
without a reasonable basis or has been disclosed other than in good faith. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser
makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically
set forth in Section 3.2 hereof.


 






    18


     


    

 


(z) No
Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2,
neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made
any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this offering
of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of any applicable shareholder approval provisions
of any Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.


 


(aa) Solvency.
Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the receipt by the
Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder, (i) the fair saleable value of the Company’s assets exceeds
the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including
known contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry
on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular
capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, consolidated and projected capital requirements and capital availability
thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate
all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in
respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability
to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).
The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation
under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt,
such reorganization does not include the Company’s mergers, acquisitions or other strategic transactions which are not for
the primary purpose of avoiding bankruptcy. Schedule 3.1(aa) sets forth as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and
unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE Subsidiary, or for which Company, any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE
Subsidiary has commitments. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness” means (x) any liabilities for
borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of US$50,000 (other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business),
(y) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of indebtedness of others, whether or not the same
are or should be reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement
of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (z) the present
value of any lease payments in excess of US$50,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP. Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE Subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness.


 






    19


     


    

 


(bb) Tax
Status. Except for matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect, the Company and its Subsidiaries each (i) has made or filed all United States federal, state and local
income and all foreign income and franchise tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject,
(ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due
on such returns, reports and declarations and (iii) has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of
all material taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid
taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company or
of any Subsidiary, VIE or any VIE Subsidiary know of no basis for any such claim. The provisions for taxes payable, if any, shown
on the financial statements filed with or as part of the Registration Statement are sufficient for all accrued and unpaid taxes,
whether or not disputed, and for all periods to and including the dates of such consolidated financial statements.  The
term “taxes” mean all federal, state, local, foreign, and other net income, gross income, gross receipts, sales, use,
ad valorem, transfer, franchise, profits, license, lease, service, service use, withholding, payroll, employment, excise, severance,
stamp, occupation, premium, property, windfall profits, customs, duties or other taxes, fees, assessments, or charges of any kind
whatsoever, together with any interest and any penalties, additions to tax, or additional amounts with respect thereto.  The
term “returns” means all returns, declarations, reports, statements, and other documents required to be filed in respect
to taxes.


 


(cc) Foreign
Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE Subsidiary, nor to the knowledge of the Company or any
Subsidiary, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE Subsidiary, has (i) directly
or indirectly, used any funds for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to foreign or
domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any
foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds, (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by
the Company or any Subsidiary, VIE or VIE Subsidiary (or made by any person acting on its behalf of which the Company is aware)
which is in violation of law, or (iv) violated in any material respect any provision of FCPA. The Company has taken commercially
reasonable steps to ensure that its accounting controls and procedures are designed to cause the Company to comply in all material
respects with the FCPA.

(ee) Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchasers’ Purchase of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers is acting
solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
thereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in
any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given
by any Purchaser or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions
contemplated thereby is merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to
each Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been based
solely on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company and its representatives.


 


(ff) Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchaser’s Trading Activity. Anything in this Agreement or elsewhere herein to the contrary notwithstanding
(except for Sections 3.2(f) and 4.14 hereof), it is understood and acknowledged by the Company that: (i) none of the Purchasers
has been asked by the Company to agree, nor has any Purchaser agreed, to desist from purchasing or selling, long and/or short,
securities of the Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued by the Company or to hold the Securities
for any specified term; (ii) past or future open market or other transactions by any Purchaser, specifically including, without
limitation, Short Sales or “derivative” transactions, before or after the closing of future private placement transactions,
may negatively impact the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities; (iii) any Purchaser, and counter-parties
in “derivative” transactions to which any such Purchaser is a party, directly or indirectly, presently may have a “short”

Questionnaires.  To the Company’s knowledge, all information contained in the questionnaires most recently
completed by each of the Company’s directors and officers and beneficial owner of 5% or more of the shares of Common Stock

for securities purchased on the open market, to the Company’s knowledge, no Company Affiliate is an owner of stock or other
securities of any member of FINRA.  To the Company’s knowledge, no Company Affiliate has made a subordinated loan
to any member of FINRA.  No proceeds from the sale of the Securities (excluding compensation as disclosed in the Registration
Statement to the Placement Agent) will be paid to any FINRA member, any persons associated with a FINRA member or an affiliate

the 180-day period prior to the initial filing date of the Registration Statement is a FINRA member, is a person associated with

person occupying a similar status or performing similar functions, or a natural person engaged in the investment banking or securities
business who is directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by a FINRA member.  When used in this Section 3.1(mm)
the term “affiliate of a FINRA member” or “affiliated with a FINRA member” means an entity that controls,
is controlled by or is under common control with a FINRA member. The Company will advise HTFL if it learns that any officer, director or
owner of 5% or more of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents is or becomes an
affiliate or associated person of a FINRA member firm.

Company is not a party to an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), which: (i) is subject to any provision of ERISA and (ii) is or was at any
time maintained, administered or contributed to by the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates (as defined hereafter). These plans
are referred to collectively herein as the “Employee Plans.” An “ERISA Affiliate” of any person or entity
means any other person or entity which, together with that person or entity, could be treated as a single employer under Section
414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Each Employee Plan has
been maintained in material compliance with its terms and the requirements of applicable law. No Employee Plan is subject to Title
IV of ERISA. The Registration Statement identifies each employment, severance or other similar agreement, arrangement or policy
and each material plan or arrangement required to be disclosed pursuant to the Rules and Regulations providing for insurance coverage
(including any self-insured arrangements), workers’ compensation, disability benefits, severance benefits, supplemental unemployment
benefits, vacation benefits or retirement benefits, or deferred compensation, profit-sharing, bonuses, stock options, stock appreciation
rights or other forms of incentive compensation, or post-retirement insurance, compensation or benefits, which: (i) is not an Employee
Plan; (ii) is entered into, maintained or contributed to, as the case may be, by the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates; and
(iii) covers any officer or director or former officer or director of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates. These agreements,
arrangements, policies or plans are referred to collectively as “Benefit Arrangements.” Each Benefit Arrangement has
been maintained in material compliance with its terms and with the requirements of applicable law. There is no liability in respect
of post-retirement health and medical benefits for retired employees of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates, other than
medical benefits required to be continued under applicable law. No “prohibited transaction” (as defined in either Section
406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) has occurred with respect to any Employee Plan; and each Employee Plan that is intended
to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified, and nothing has occurred, whether by action or by failure to
act, which could cause the loss of such qualification.

in any such court, with respect to its obligations, liabilities or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection with
this Agreement and the Transaction Documents; and, to the extent that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective
properties, assets or revenues may have or may hereafter become entitled to any such right of immunity in any such court in which
proceedings may at any time be commenced, each of the Company and its Subsidiaries waives or will waive such right to the extent
permitted by law and has consented to such relief and enforcement as provided in this Agreement.

at the Closing; provided, that the Company shall not be required to deliver any Pre-Settlement Shares to such Purchaser prior to
the Company’s receipt of the purchase price of such Pre-Settlement Shares hereunder; and provided further that the Company
hereby acknowledges and agrees that the forgoing shall not constitute a representation or covenant by such Purchaser as to whether
or not during the Pre-Settlement Period such Purchaser shall sell any Common Stock to any Person and that any such decision to
sell any Common Stock by such Purchaser shall solely be made at the time such Purchaser elects to effect any such sale, if any.

in connection with the filing of final Transaction Documents with the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required
by law or Trading Market or FINRA regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such
disclosure permitted under this clause (b).


 


4.5 Shareholder
Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the Company, any other Person, that any
Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including
any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company,
or that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Securities
under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers.


 


4.6 Non-Public Information.
Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, which shall
be disclosed pursuant to Section 4.4, the Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any other Person acting on its behalf
will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes, or the Company reasonably believes constitutes,
material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have consented to the receipt of such information and
agreed with the Company to keep such information confidential. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be
relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. To the extent that the Company, any of
its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates delivers any material, non-public
information to a Purchaser without such Purchaser’s consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that such Purchaser
shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors,
agents, employees or Affiliates, or a duty to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors,
agents, employees or Affiliates not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public information, provided that the Purchaser
shall remain subject to applicable law. To the extent that any notice provided pursuant to any Transaction Document constitutes,
or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file
such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser
shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

4.7 Use of Proceeds.
Except as set forth on Schedule 4.7 attached hereto, the Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities
hereunder for working capital and capital expenditure purposes and shall not use such proceeds: (a) for the satisfaction of any
portion of the Company’s debt (other than payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of the Company’s business
and prior practices); (b) for the redemption of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents; (c) for the settlement
of any outstanding litigation; or (d) in violation of FCPA or OFAC regulations.


 


4.8 Indemnification
of Purchasers. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.8, the Company will indemnify (to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law) and hold each Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, partners, employees and agents
(and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title
or any other title), each Person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section
20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons
with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of
such controlling persons (each, a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations,
claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable
attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to
(a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the
other Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against the Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their
respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party, with respect to any of
the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is solely based upon a material breach of such Purchaser
Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such
Purchaser Party may have with any such stockholder or any violations by such Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws
or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which is finally judicially determined to constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful
misconduct). If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to
this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume
the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have
the right to employ one separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of
such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (x) the employment thereof has been specifically
authorized by the Company in writing, (y) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to
employ counsel or (z) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a material conflict on any material issue
between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for
the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party
under this Agreement (1) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (2) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability
is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by
such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The indemnification required by this Section 4.8
shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are
received or are incurred. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right
of any Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.


 






    33


     


    

 


4.9 Reservation
of Shares of Common Stock. As of the date hereof, the Company has reserved and the Company shall continue to reserve and keep
available at all times, free of preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of enabling the
Company to issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement and Warrant Shares pursuant to any exercise of the Warrants.


 


4.10 Listing of
Shares of Common Stock. The Company hereby agrees to use best efforts to maintain the listing or quotation of the shares of
Common Stock on the Trading Market on which it is currently listed, and prior to the Closing, the Company shall have applied to
list or quote all of the Shares and Warrant Shares on such Trading Market and concurrently with the Closing, the Company shall
have not received any information indicating that the listing of such Shares and Warrant Shares is or will be rejected. The Company
further agrees, if the Company applies to have the shares of Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will then include
in such application all of the Shares and Warrant Shares, and will take such other action as is necessary to cause all of the Shares
and Warrant Shares to be listed or quoted on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible. The Company will then take all
action reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its shares of Common Stock on a Trading Market and will comply
in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market.
The Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of the shares of Common Stock for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust
Company or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository
Trust Company or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer.


 


4.11 Intentionally
Omitted.


 


4.12 Subsequent
Equity Sales.


 


(a) From
the date hereof until thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue, enter into any
agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or file
any registration statement, or amendment or supplement thereto, with the Commission.


 






    34


     


    

 


(b) From
the date hereof until such time as no Purchaser holds any of the Warrants, the Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering
into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents
(or a combination of units thereof) involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “Variable Rate Transaction” means
a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or
exercisable for, or include the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price
or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common
Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange
price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the
occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the
shares of Common Stock or (ii) enters into, or effects a transaction under, any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity
line of credit or at-the-market offering facility, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price. Any Purchaser
shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition
to any right to collect damages.


 


(c) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Section 4.12 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance, except that no Variable Rate Transaction shall
be an Exempt Issuance.


 


4.13 Equal Treatment
of Purchasers. No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid to any Person
to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is
also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate
right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to
treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect
to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.


 


4.14 Certain Transactions
and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither it nor any
Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any purchases or sales, including Short Sales
of any of the Company’s securities during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending at such time
that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described
in Section 4.4.  Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company pursuant to the initial press release as described
in Section 4.4, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction and the information
included in the Disclosure Schedules.  Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement
to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant
hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4,
(ii) no Purchaser shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance
with applicable securities laws from and after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly
announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4 and (iii) no Purchaser shall have any duty of confidentiality
or duty not to trade in the securities of the Company to the Company or its Subsidiaries after the issuance of the initial press
release as described in Section 4.4.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment
vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers
have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s
assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that
made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement.


 






    35


     


    

 


4.15 Capital Changes.
Until the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company shall not undertake a reverse or forward stock split or reclassification
of the shares of Common Stock without the prior written consent of the Purchasers holding a majority in interest of the Shares,
unless a reverse split is required to maintain compliance with the minimum bid price requirements of the Trading Market.


 


4.16 Exercise Procedures.
The form of Notice of Exercise included in the Warrants set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Purchasers in
order to exercise the Warrants. No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required of the Purchasers
to exercise their Warrants. Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor
shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise form be required in order
to exercise the Warrants. The Company shall honor exercises of the Warrants and shall deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with
the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.


 


4.17 Lock-Up.
The Company shall not amend, modify, waive or terminate any provision of any of the Lock-Up Agreements except to extend the term
of the lock-up period and shall enforce the provisions of each Lock-Up Agreement in accordance with its terms. If any officer or
director that is a party to a Lock-Up Agreement breaches any provision of a Lock-Up Agreement, the Company shall promptly use its
best efforts to seek specific performance of the terms of such Lock-Up Agreement.


 


ARTICLE V.

MISCELLANEOUS


 


5.1 Termination. 
This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, as to such Purchaser’s obligations hereunder only and without any effect
whatsoever on the obligations between the Company and the other Purchasers, by written notice to the other parties, if the Closing
has not been consummated on or before the fifth (5th) Trading Day following the date hereof; provided, however,
that no such termination will affect the right of any party to sue for any breach by any other party (or parties).


 






    36


     


    

 


5.2 Fees and Expenses.
At the Closing, the Company has agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for all travel and other out-of-pocket expenses, including
the reasonable fees, costs and disbursements of its legal counsel, in an amount not to exceed an aggregate of US$65,000. Except
as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, 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 of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees (including, without limitation,
any fees required for same-day processing of any instruction letter delivered by the Company and any exercise notice delivered
by a Purchaser), stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the delivery of any Securities to the Purchasers.


 


5.3 Entire Agreement.
The Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, 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.


 


5.4 Notices.
Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and
shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of: (a) the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered
via facsimile at the facsimile number or email attachment at the email address as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto
at or prior to 4:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such
notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number or email attachment at the email address as set forth
on the signature pages attached hereto on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 4:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading
Day, (c) the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight
courier service or (d) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The address for such notices
and communications shall be as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto. To the extent that any notice provided pursuant
to any Transaction Document constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any Subsidiaries,
the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K.


 


5.5 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 Purchasers which purchased at least 50.1% in interest of the Shares based on the
initial Subscription Amounts hereunder or, in the case of any amendment to this Agreement that occurs prior to the Closing Date,
all of the Purchasers or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived provision is sought,
provided that if any amendment, modification or waiver disproportionately and adversely impacts a Purchaser (or group of Purchasers),
the consent of such disproportionately impacted Purchaser (or group of Purchasers) shall also be required. 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 any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. Any proposed amendment
or waiver that disproportionately, materially and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any Purchaser relative to the
comparable rights and obligations of the other Purchasers shall require the prior written consent of such adversely affected Purchaser.
Any amendment effected in accordance with this Section 5.5 shall be binding upon each Purchaser and holder of Securities and the
Company.


 






    37


     


    

 


5.6 Headings.
The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect
any of the provisions hereof.


 


5.7 Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.
The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Purchaser
(other than by merger). Any Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Purchaser
assigns or transfers any Securities, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred
Securities, by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to the “Purchasers.”


 


5.8 No Third-Party
Beneficiaries. The Placement Agent shall be the third party beneficiary of the representations and warranties of the Company
in Section 3.1 and the representations and warranties of the Purchasers in Section 3.2. This Agreement is intended for the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision
hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.8, this Section 5.8 and/or the Engagement Letter.


 


5.9 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 New York, without regard to the principles of
conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal 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 City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction
of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan 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 Action or Proceeding, any
claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is
an inconvenient venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process
being served in any such 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 any party shall commence an Action or Proceeding
to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to the obligations of the Company under Section 4.8,
the prevailing party in such Action or Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’
fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Action or Proceeding.


 






    38


     


    

 


5.10 Survival.
The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Securities.


 


5.11 Execution.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same
agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being
understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. 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.


 


5.12 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.


 


5.13 Rescission
and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of)
any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction
Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser
may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand
or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, however, that in the
case of a rescission of an exercise of a Warrant, the applicable Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common Stock
subject to any such rescinded exercise notice concurrently with the return to such Purchaser of the aggregate exercise price paid
to the Company for such shares and the restoration of such Purchaser’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to such Purchaser’s
Warrant (including, issuance of a replacement warrant certificate evidencing such restored right).


 


5.14 Replacement
of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or
in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall
also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities
and provide such indemnity as may be required and determined under the Company’s policy as set by the Board of Directors.


 






    39


     


    

 


5.15 Remedies.
In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of
the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that
monetary damages may 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.


 


5.16 Payment Set
Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or
a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise
or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged
by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any
law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to
the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued
in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.


 


5.17 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. For reasons of administrative convenience only, each
Purchaser and its respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through HTFL. HTFL does not represent any of the
Purchasers and only represents the Placement Agent. 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.


 






    40


     


    

 


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


 


5.19 Saturdays,
Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or
granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding
Business Day.


 


5.20 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 shares of Common Stock that
occur after the date of this Agreement.


 


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