of Shares issuable by the Company and purchasable by the Investor, shall not exceed that number of the shares of Common Stock that may
be issuable without shareholder approval (the “Maximum Common Stock Issuance”). If such issuance of shares of Common
Stock could cause a delisting on the Principal Market then the Maximum Common Stock Issuance shall first be approved by the Company’s
shareholders in accordance with applicable law and the By-laws and the Articles of Incorporation of the Company. The parties understand
and agree that the Company’s failure to seek or obtain such shareholder approval shall in no way adversely affect the validity and
due authorization of the issuance and sale of Securities or the Investor’s obligation in accordance with the terms and conditions
hereof to purchase a number of Shares in the aggregate up to the Maximum Common Stock Issuance, and that such approval pertains only to
the applicability of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance limitation provided in this Section 2.5.


 


2.6 LIMITATION
ON AMOUNT OF OWNERSHIP. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Investor be entitled to
purchase that number of Shares, which when added to the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned (as such term is
defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act), by the Investor, would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding on the Closing Date, as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) of the 1934 Act.

relating to an issuance and sale by the Company of its Common Stock and which has not been publicly announced.


 


4.11 EMPLOYEE
RELATIONS. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is involved in any union labor dispute nor, to the knowledge of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, is any such dispute threatened. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to a collective
bargaining agreement, and the Company and its Subsidiaries believe that relations with their employees are good. No executive officer
(as defined in Rule 501(f) of the 1933 Act) has notified the Company that such officer intends to leave the Company’s employ or
otherwise terminate such officer’s employment with the Company.


 


4.12 INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY RIGHTS. The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess adequate rights or licenses to use all trademarks, trade names, service
marks, service mark registrations, service names, patents, patent rights, copyrights, inventions, licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations,
trade secrets and rights necessary to conduct their respective businesses as now conducted. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents,
none of the Company’s trademarks, trade names, service marks, service mark registrations, service names, patents, patent rights,
copyrights, inventions, licenses, approvals, government authorizations, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights necessary
to conduct its business as now or as proposed to be conducted have expired or terminated, or are expected to expire or terminate within
three (3) years from the date of this Agreement. The Company and its Subsidiaries do not have any knowledge of any infringement by the
Company or its Subsidiaries of trademark, trade name rights, patents, patent rights, copyrights, inventions, licenses, service names,
service marks, service mark registrations, trade secret or other similar rights of others, or of any such development of similar or identical
trade secrets or technical information by others and, except as set forth in the SEC Documents, there is no claim, action or proceeding
being made or brought against, or to the Company’s knowledge, being threatened against, the Company or its Subsidiaries regarding
trademark, trade name, patents, patent rights, invention, copyright, license, service names, service marks, service mark registrations,
trade secret or other infringement; and the Company and its Subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances which might give rise
to any of the foregoing. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken commercially reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy,
confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties.


 


4.13 ENVIRONMENTAL
LAWS. The Company and its Subsidiaries (i) are, to the knowledge of the management and directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
in compliance with any and all applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of human health
and safety, the environment or hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants (“Environmental Laws”);
(ii) have, to the knowledge of the management and directors of the Company, received all permits, licenses or other approvals required
of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their respective businesses; and (iii) are in compliance, to the knowledge of the
management and directors of the Company, with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval where, in each of the three
(3) foregoing cases, the failure to so comply would have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.


 


4.14 TITLE.
The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them which is material to the business
of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as are described in
the SEC Documents or such as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to
be made of such property by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do
not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company and its Subsidiaries.


 




    11


     


    

 


4.15 INSURANCE.
Each of the Company’s Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks
and in such amounts as management of the Company reasonably believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company
and its Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied
for and neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries 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 at
a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


4.16 REGULATORY
PERMITS. The Company and its Subsidiaries have in full force and effect all certificates, approvals, authorizations and permits from
the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities and comparable foreign regulatory agencies, necessary to own,
lease or operate their respective properties and assets and conduct their respective businesses, and neither the Company nor any such
Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, approval, authorization
or permit, except for such certificates, approvals, authorizations or permits which if not obtained, or such revocations or modifications
which, would not have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


4.17 INTERNAL
ACCOUNTING CONTROLS. Except as otherwise set forth in the SEC Documents, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintain a system
of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s
general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles by a firm with membership to the PCAOB and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access
to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded accountability
for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.
The Company’s management has determined that the Company’s internal accounting controls were not effective as of the date
of this Agreement as further described in the SEC Documents.


 


4.18 NO
MATERIALLY ADVERSE CONTRACTS, ETC. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any charter, corporate or other legal
restriction, or any judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation which in the judgment of the Company’s officers has or is expected
in the future to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any contract or agreement
which in the judgment of the Company’s officers has or is expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


4.19 TAX
STATUS. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has made or filed all United States federal and state income and all other tax returns,
reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject (unless and only to the extent that the Company and each
of its Subsidiaries has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and unreported taxes) and
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, except those being contested in good faith and has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for
the payment of all 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 know of no
basis for any such claim.


 




    12


     


    

 


4.20 CERTAIN
TRANSACTIONS. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents filed at least ten (10) days prior to the date hereof and except for arm’s
length transactions pursuant to which the Company makes payments in the ordinary course of business upon terms no less favorable than
the Company could obtain from disinterested third parties, none of the officers, directors, or employees of the Company is presently a
party to any transaction with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including
any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal
property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the Company,
any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or
is an officer, director, trustee or partner, such that disclosure would be required in the SEC Documents..


 


4.21 DILUTIVE
EFFECT. The Company understands and acknowledges that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon purchases pursuant to this
Agreement will increase in certain circumstances including, but not necessarily limited to, the circumstance wherein the trading price
of the Common Stock declines during the period between the Effective Date and the end of the Open Period. The Company’s executive
officers and directors have studied and fully understand the nature of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and recognize that
they have a potential dilutive effect on the shareholders of the Company. The Board of Directors of the Company has concluded, in its
good faith business judgment, and with full understanding of the implications, that such issuance is in the best interests of the Company.
The Company specifically acknowledges that, subject to such limitations as are expressly set forth in the Registered Offering Transaction
Documents, its obligation to issue shares of Common Stock upon purchases pursuant to this Agreement is absolute and unconditional regardless
of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other shareholders of the Company.


 


4.22 NO
GENERAL SOLICITATION. Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its behalf, has engaged in any form
of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection with the offer or sale of the Common
Stock to be offered as set forth in this Agreement.


 


4.23 NO
BROKERS, FINDERS OR FINANCIAL ADVISORY FEES OR COMMISSIONS. Other than Castle Placement, no brokers, finders or financial advisory
fees or commissions will be payable by the Company, its agents or Subsidiaries, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

The Company shall not pursue a similar equity financing transaction as envisioned hereunder (the “Equity Financing”) with
any other party unless and until good faith negotiations have terminated between the Investor and the Company or until such time as the
Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC.

authorized shares of Common Stock by seeking shareholder approval for the authorization of such additional shares.

commitment or arrangement on an arms-length basis on terms no less favorable than terms which would have been obtainable from a disinterested
third party other than such Related Party, or (iii) any agreement, transaction, commitment or arrangement which is approved by a majority

11.11 PUBLICITY.
The Investor acknowledges that this Agreement and all or part of the Registered Offering Transaction Documents may be deemed to be “material
contracts” as that term is defined by Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K, and that the Company may therefore be required to file

its counsel.

The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Investor, their employees, officers, directors, agents, and partners, and their respective

incurred in respect of any such claimed or existing fees, as such fees and expenses are incurred.


 


11.14 NO
STRICT CONSTRUCTION. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their

a full and fair opportunity to review this Agreement and seek the advice of counsel on it.


 


11.15 REMEDIES.
The Investor shall have all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and all rights and remedies
which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which the Investor has by
law. Any person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without
posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any default or breach of any provision of this Agreement, including
the recovery of reasonable attorneys fees and costs, and to exercise all other rights granted by law.


 


11.16 PAYMENT
SET ASIDE. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Investor hereunder or under the Registration Rights Agreement
or the Investor enforces or exercises its rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement

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

SECTION XII


NON-DISCLOSURE OF NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION


 


The Company shall not disclose
non-public information to the Investor, its advisors, or its representatives.


 


Nothing herein shall require
the Company to disclose non-public information to the Investor or its advisors or representatives, and the Company represents that it
does not disseminate non-public information to any investors who purchase stock in the Company in a public offering, to money managers
or to securities analysts, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company will, as hereinabove provided,
immediately notify the advisors and representatives of the Investor and, if any, underwriters, of any event or the existence of any circumstance
(without any obligation to disclose the specific event or circumstance) of which it becomes aware, constituting non-public information
(whether or not requested of the Company specifically or generally during the course of due diligence by such persons or entities), which,
if not disclosed in the prospectus included in the Registration Statement would cause such prospectus to include a material misstatement
or to omit a material fact required to be stated therein in order to make the statements, therein, in light of the circumstances in which
they were made, not misleading. Nothing contained in this Section 12 shall be construed to mean that such persons or entities other
than the Investor (without the written consent of the Investor prior to disclosure of such information) may not obtain non-public information
in the course of conducting due diligence in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and nothing herein shall prevent any such persons
or entities from notifying the Company of their opinion that based on such due diligence by such persons or entities, that the Registration
Statement contains an untrue statement of material fact or omits a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or
necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.


 


SECTION XIII


ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OF THE PARTIES


 


Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree to the following: (i) the Investor makes no representations
or covenants that it will not engage in trading in the securities of the Company, other than as provided in Section 3.12 of this Agreement;
(ii) the Company shall, by 8:30 a.m. EST on the fourth Trading Day following the date hereof, file a current report on Form 8-K disclosing
the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and in the other Registered Offering Transaction Documents; (iii) the Company
has not and shall not provide material non-public information to the Investor unless prior thereto the Investor shall have executed a
written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information; and (iv) the Company understands and confirms that the Investor
will be relying on the acknowledgements set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above if the Investor effects any transactions in the securities
of the Company.
