2.1.1 Request for Registration. Subject to the provisions
of subsection 2.1.4 and Section 2.4 hereof, at any time and from time to time on or after the date the Company consummates the initial
Business Combination, the Sponsor may make a written demand for Registration of all or part of their Registrable Securities, which written
demand shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such Registration and the intended method(s) of distribution
thereof (such written demand a “Demand Registration”). The Company shall, within ten (10) days of the Company’s
receipt of the Demand Registration, notify, in writing, all other Holders of Registrable Securities of such demand, and each Holder of
Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Registration
pursuant to a Demand Registration (each such Holder that includes all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such
Registration, a “Requesting Holder”) shall so notify the Company, in writing, within five (5) days after the
receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. Upon receipt by the Company of any such written notification from a Requesting Holder(s)
to the Company, such Requesting Holder(s) shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in a Registration pursuant to
a Demand Registration and the Company shall (i) file a Registration Statement in respect of all Registrable Securities requested by the
Sponsor and Requesting Holder(s) pursuant such Demand Registration, not more than forty five (45) days immediately after the Company’s
receipt of the Demand Registration, and (ii) shall effect the registration thereof as soon as practicable thereafter. Under no circumstances
shall the Company be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of three (3) Registrations pursuant to a Demand Registration under this
subsection 2.1.1 with respect to any or all Registrable Securities; provided, however, that a Registration shall not be counted for such
purposes unless a Form S-1 or any similar long-form registration statement that may be available at such time (“Form S-1”)
has become effective and all of the Registrable Securities requested by the Requesting Holders to be registered on behalf of the Requesting
Holders in such Form S-1 Registration have been sold, in accordance with Section 3.1 of this Agreement.


 


2.1.2 Effective Registration. Notwithstanding
the provisions of subsection 2.1.1 above or any other part of this Agreement, a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration
shall not count as a Registration unless and until (i) the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to a Registration
pursuant to a Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission and (ii) the Company has complied with all of its obligations
under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, further, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared
effective, an offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by
any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or state court or any other governmental agency the Registration Statement with
respect to such Registration shall be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction
is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) the Sponsor thereafter affirmatively elects to continue with such Registration
and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than five (5) days, of such election; provided, further,
that the Company shall not be obligated or required to file another Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has been
previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration becomes effective or is subsequently terminated.


 


2.1.3 Underwritten Offering. Subject to the
provisions of subsection 2.1.4 and Section 2.4 hereof, if the Sponsor so advises the Company as part of its Demand Registration
that the offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering,
then the right of the Sponsor or Requesting Holder (if any) to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned
upon such Holder’s participation in such Underwritten Offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in
such Underwritten Offering to the extent provided herein. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through
an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.1.3 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s)
selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Sponsor.


 






    4


    


    

 


2.1.4 Reduction of Underwritten Offering.
If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration, in good faith, advises
the Company, the Sponsor and the Requesting Holders (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that
the Sponsor and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Stock or other equity securities
that the Company desires to sell and the Common Stock, if any, as to which a Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written
contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other shareholders who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum
number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the
timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such
securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten
Offering, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Sponsor and the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata based on the
respective number of Registrable Securities that each Sponsor and Requesting Holder (if any) has requested be included in such Underwritten
Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Sponsor and Requesting Holders have requested be included in
such Underwritten Registration) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to the extent that the
Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Common Stock or other equity securities that the
Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third, to the extent that the
Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Common Stock or other equity securities
of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register in a Registration pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements
with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.


 


2.1.5 Demand Registration Withdrawal. The
Sponsor or a majority-in-interest of the Requesting Holders (if any), pursuant to a Registration under subsection 2.1.1 shall have
the right to withdraw from a Registration pursuant to such Demand Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification
to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Registration prior to the effectiveness
of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Registration of their Registrable Securities pursuant to such
Demand Registration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration
Expenses incurred in connection with a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration prior to its withdrawal under this subsection
2.1.5.


 


2.2 Piggyback Registration.


 


2.2.1 Piggyback Rights. If, at any time on
or after the date the Company consummates a Business Combination, the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities
Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible
into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of shareholders of the Company (or by the Company and by the shareholders
of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in
connection with any employee share option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s
existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company or (iv) for a dividend
reinvestment plan, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities
as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice
shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the
name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable
Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within
five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company
shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its best efforts to
cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the
Holders pursuant to this subsection 2.2.1 to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar
securities of the Company included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in
accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities
through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.2.1 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with
the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company.


 


2.2.2 Reduction of Piggyback Registration.
If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration that is to be a Piggyback Registration, in good faith, advises
the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or
number of the Common Stock that the Company desires to sell, taken together with (i) the Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration
has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable
Securities hereunder (ii) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof,
and (iii) the Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration
rights of other shareholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:


 


(a) If the Registration is undertaken for the Company’s
account, the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires
to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities
has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable
Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 hereof, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder
has so requested, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum
Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration
has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Company, which can be sold
without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and


 






    5


    


    

 


(b) If the Registration is pursuant to a request
by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first,
the Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities,
which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities
has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable
Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has
requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested
to be included in such Underwritten Registration, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to
the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Common Stock or other
equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth,
to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Common Stock
or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate
written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.


 


2.2.3 Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any
Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written
notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback
Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration.
The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate
written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration
at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal
under this subsection 2.2.3.


 


2.2.4 Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights.
For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant
to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.1 hereof.


 


2.3 Registrations on Form S-3. The Holders
of Registrable Securities may at any time, and from time to time, request in writing that the Company, pursuant to Rule 415 under the
Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), register the resale of any or all of their Registrable
Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement that may be available at such time (“Form S-3”);
provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect such request through an Underwritten Offering. Within
five (5) days of the Company’s receipt of a written request from a Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities for a Registration
on Form S-3, the Company shall promptly give written notice of the proposed Registration on Form S-3 to all other Holders of Registrable
Securities, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable
Securities in such Registration on Form S-3 shall so notify the Company, in writing, within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Holder
of the notice from the Company. As soon as practicable thereafter, but not more than twelve (12) days after the Company’s initial
receipt of such written request for a Registration on Form S-3, the Company shall register all or such portion of such Holder’s
Registrable Securities as are specified in such written request, together with all or such portion of Registrable Securities of any other
Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in the written notification given by such Holder or Holders; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such Registration pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof if (i) a
Form S-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) the Holders of Registrable Securities, together with the Holders of any other equity
securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such Registration, propose to sell the Registrable Securities and such other equity
securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $1,000,000.


 


2.4 Restrictions on Registration Rights.
If (A) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing
of, and ending on a date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of, a Company initiated Registration and provided
that the Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.1.1
and it continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective;
(B) the Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and the Company and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters
to firmly underwrite the offer; or (C) in the good faith judgment of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the
Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then
in each case the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith
judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future
and that it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement. In such event, the Company shall have the right
to defer such filing for a period of not more than thirty (30) days; provided, however, that the Company shall not defer
its obligation in this manner more than once in any 12-month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
no Registration shall be effected or permitted and no Registration Statement shall become effective, with respect to any Registrable Securities
held by any Holder, until after the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-up Period, or the Private Placement Lock-up Period.

reasonably satisfactory to the Company, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information;


 


3.1.11 obtain a “cold comfort” letter
from the Company’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Registration, in customary form and
covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably
request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders;


 


3.1.12 on the date the Registrable Securities are
delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, obtain an opinion, dated such date, of counsel representing the Company for the purposes
of such Registration, addressed to the Holders, the placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such
legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the Holders, placement agent, sales
agent, or Underwriter may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably
satisfactory to a majority in interest of the participating Holders;


 


3.1.13 in the event of any Underwritten Offering,
enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter of
such offering;


 


3.1.14 make available to its security holders, as
soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day
of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions
of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission);


 


3.1.15 If the Registration involves the Registration
of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $10,000,000, use its reasonable efforts to make available senior executives
of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in
any Underwritten Offering; and


 


3.1.16 otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably
with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, in connection with such Registration.


 


3.2 Registration Expenses. The Registration
Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Company. It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental
selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees,
Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all reasonable
fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.


 


3.3 Requirements for Participation in Underwritten
Offerings. No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration
initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up
agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure.
Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders
shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until he, she or it has received copies of a supplemented or amended
Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment
as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until he, she or it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the
Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration
at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial
statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, the Company may, upon giving prompt written
notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for
the shortest period of time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days, determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such
purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their
receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer
to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised
its rights under this Section 3.4.


 


3.5 Reporting Obligations. As long as any
Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants
to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed
by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with
true and complete copies of all such filings. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably
request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Common Stock held by such Holder without registration
under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor
rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), including providing any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall
deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.


 


3.6 Requirements for Participation in Underwritten
Offerings and Limitations on Registration Rights. No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of
the Company pursuant to a registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s securities
on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires,
powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required
under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.


 


ARTICLE IV

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION


 


4.1 Indemnification.


 


4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent
permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and agents and each person who controls such Holder
(within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees)
caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus
or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished
in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors
and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing
with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.


 






    9


    


    

 


4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement
in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and
affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent
permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within
the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable
attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary
Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information
or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to
indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder
of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable
Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers,
directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in
the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.


 


4.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification herein
shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that
the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has
not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of
interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume
the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying
party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not
be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect
to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party
and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified
party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money
(and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as
an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect
to such claim or litigation.


 


4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer,
director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Holder of
Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified
party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.


 


4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section
4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission
or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified
party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5
shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount
paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the
limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably
incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable
if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation,
which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection
4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

be null and void.

written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities at the time in question,
compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived, or any of such provisions,
covenants or conditions may be amended or modified; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment
hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in his, her or its capacity as a holder of the shares of the Company,
in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity) shall require the consent of the Holder so affected.
No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the
Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or
