on (i) the business, properties, assets, liabilities, operations (including results thereof), condition (financial or otherwise)
or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary, individually or taken as a whole, (ii) the transactions contemplated hereby or in

to herein as a “Subsidiary”.


 


(b) Authorization;

been duly authorized by the Company’s board of directors and (other than the filing with the SEC of one or more prospectus
supplements required by the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Prospectus
Supplement”) supplementing the base prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”)
and any other filings as may be required by any state securities agencies) no further filing, consent or authorization is required
by the Company, its board of directors or its shareholders or other governing body. This Agreement has been, and the other Transaction
Documents will be prior to the Closing, duly executed and delivered by the Company, and each constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforceability
may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or
similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies and except

(c) Issuance
of Securities; Registration Statement. The issuance of the Common Shares and the Warrants are duly authorized and, upon issuance
and payment in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and
free from all preemptive or similar rights, mortgages, defects, claims, liens, pledges, charges, taxes, rights of first refusal,
encumbrances, security interests and other encumbrances (collectively “Liens”) with respect to the issuance
thereof. As of the Closing, the Company shall have reserved from its duly authorized capital stock not less than 100% of the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (without taking into account any limitations on the exercise
of the Warrants set forth in the Warrants). The issuance of the Warrant Shares is duly authorized, and upon exercise in accordance
with the Warrants, the Warrant Shares, when issued, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all preemptive
or similar rights or Liens with respect to the issue thereof, with the holders being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder
of Common Stock. The issuance by the Company of the Securities has been registered under the 1933 Act, the Securities are being
issued pursuant to the Registration Statement and all of the Securities are freely transferable and freely tradable by each of
the Buyers without restriction, whether by way of registration or some exemption therefrom. The Registration Statement is effective
and available for the issuance of the Securities thereunder and the Company has not received any notice that the SEC has issued
or intends to issue a stop-order with respect to the Registration Statement or that the SEC otherwise has suspended or withdrawn
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently, or intends or has threatened in writing to
do so. The “Plan of Distribution” section under the Registration Statement permits the issuance and sale of the Securities
hereunder and as contemplated by the other Transaction Documents. Upon receipt of the Securities, each of the Buyers will have
good and marketable title to the Securities. The Registration Statement and any prospectus included therein, including the Prospectus
and the Prospectus Supplement, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder and
all other applicable laws and regulations. At the time the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto became effective,
at the date of this Agreement and at each deemed effective date thereof pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the 1933 Act, the Registration
Statement and any amendments thereto complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and
did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto (including,
without limitation the Prospectus Supplement), at the time the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto was issued and
at the Closing Date, complied, and will comply, in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and did not, and
will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company meets all of the requirements for
the use of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act for the offering and sale of the Securities contemplated by this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents, and the SEC has not notified the Company of any objection to the use of the form of the Registration Statement
pursuant to Rule 401(g)(1) under the 1933 Act. The Registration Statement meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x)
under the 1933 Act. At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement that the Company or another offering participant
made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) under the 1933 Act) relating to any of the Securities, the Company
was not and is not an “Ineligible Issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act). The Company (i) has not distributed
any offering material in connection with the offer or sale of any of the Securities and (ii) until no Buyer holds any of the Securities,
shall not distribute any offering material in connection with the offer or sale of any of the Securities to, or by, any of the
Buyers (if required), in each case, other than the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement. In accordance
with Rule 5110(b)(7)(C)(i) of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Manual, the offering of the Securities has been registered
with the SEC on Form S-3 under the 1933 Act pursuant to the standards for Form S-3 in effect prior to October 21, 1992, and the
Securities are being offered pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the 1933 Act.

Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the
Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Common Shares,
the Warrants and the Warrant Shares and the reservation for issuance of the Warrant Shares) will not (i) result in a violation
of the Articles of Incorporation (as defined below) (including, without limitation, any certificate of designation contained therein),
Bylaws (as defined below), certificate of formation, memorandum of association, articles of association, bylaws or other organizational
documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any capital stock or other securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,

Documents, in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations
which the Company or any Subsidiary is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been or will be obtained or effected
on or prior to the Closing Date, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries are aware of any facts or circumstances which
might prevent the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from obtaining or effecting any of the registration, application or filings
contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company is not in violation of the requirements of the Principal Market and has
no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which could reasonably lead to delisting or suspension of the Common Stock in the foreseeable
future. “Governmental Entity” means any nation, state, county, city, town, village, district, or other political

Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice given by a Buyer or any of its representatives
or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental
to such Buyer’s purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to each Buyer that the Company’s decision
to enter into the Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Company and its representatives.


 


(g) Placement

(h) No
Integrated Offering. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates, nor any Person acting on their behalf

approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system
on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated for quotation. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, their

Effect. The Company understands and acknowledges that the number of Warrant Shares will increase in certain circumstances.
The Company further acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with

and financial statements, notes and schedules thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein being hereinafter referred
to as the “SEC Documents”). The Company has delivered or has made available to the Buyers or their respective
representatives true, correct and complete copies of each of the SEC Documents not available on the EDGAR system. As of their respective
dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations
of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed with
the SEC, 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.
As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents complied in all material respects
with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect as
of the time of filing. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”), consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such
financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude
footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the
Company as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case
of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments which will not be material, either individually or in the aggregate).
The reserves, if any, established by the Company or the lack of reserves, if applicable, are reasonable based upon facts and circumstances
known by the Company on the date hereof and there are no loss contingencies that are required to be accrued by the Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 5 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board which are not provided for by the Company in its
financial statements or otherwise. No other information provided by or on behalf of the Company to any of the Buyers which is not

any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not
misleading, in the light of the circumstance under which they are or were made. The Company is not currently contemplating to amend
or restate any of the financial statements (including, without limitation, any notes or any letter of the independent accountants
of the Company with respect thereto) included in the SEC Documents (the “Financial Statements”), nor is the
Company currently aware of facts or circumstances which would require the Company to amend or restate any of the Financial Statements,
in each case, in order for any of the Financials Statements to be in compliance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the
SEC. The Company has not been informed by its independent accountants that they recommend that the Company amend or restate any
of the Financial Statements or that there is any need for the Company to amend or restate any of the Financial Statements.


 


(l) Absence
of Certain Changes. . Except as disclosed Schedule 3(l), since the date of the Company’s most recent audited financial
statements contained in a Form 10-K, there has been no material adverse change and no material adverse development in the business,
assets, liabilities, properties, operations (including results thereof), condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Since the date of the Company’s most recent audited financial statements contained in
a Form 10-K, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has (i) declared or paid any dividends, (ii) sold any material assets,
individually or in the aggregate, outside of the ordinary course of business or (iii) made any material capital expenditures, individually
or in the aggregate, outside of the ordinary course of business. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any
steps to seek protection pursuant to any law or statute relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, liquidation
or winding up, nor does the Company or any Subsidiary have any knowledge or reason to believe that any of their respective creditors
intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or any actual knowledge of any fact which would reasonably lead a creditor
to do so. The Company and its Subsidiaries, individually and on a consolidated basis, are not as of the date hereof, and after
giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby to occur at the Closing, will not be Insolvent (as defined below). For purposes
of this Section 3(l), “Insolvent” means, (i) with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated
basis, (A) the present fair saleable value of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ assets is less than the amount required
to pay the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ total Indebtedness (as defined below), (B) the Company and its Subsidiaries
are unable to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute
and matured or (C) the Company and its Subsidiaries intend to incur or believe that they will incur debts that would be beyond
their ability to pay as such debts mature; and (ii) with respect to the Company and each Subsidiary, individually, (A) the present
fair saleable value of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s (as the case may be) assets is less than the amount required
to pay its respective total Indebtedness, (B) the Company or such Subsidiary (as the case may be) is unable to pay its respective
debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured or (C)
the Company or such Subsidiary (as the case may be) intends to incur or believes that it will incur debts that would be beyond
its respective ability to pay as such debts mature. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in any business
or in any transaction, and is not about to engage in any business or in any transaction, for which the Company’s or such
Subsidiary’s remaining assets constitute unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged

(m) No
Undisclosed Events, Liabilities, Developments or Circumstances. No event, liability, development or circumstance has occurred
or exists, or is reasonably expected to exist or occur with respect to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective
businesses, properties, liabilities, prospects, operations (including results thereof) or condition (financial or otherwise), that
(i) would be required to be disclosed by the Company under applicable securities laws on a registration statement on Form S-1 filed
with the SEC relating to an issuance and sale by the Company of its Common Stock and which has not been publicly announced, (ii)
could have a material adverse effect on any Buyer’s investment hereunder or (iii) could have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(n) Conduct
of Business; Regulatory Permits. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any term of or in default
under its Articles of Incorporation, any certificate of designation, preferences or rights of any other outstanding series of preferred
stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Bylaws or their organizational charter, certificate of formation, memorandum
of association, articles of association, Articles of Incorporation or certificate of incorporation or bylaws, respectively. Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any judgment, decree or order or any statute, ordinance, rule or regulation
applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will conduct its business
in violation of any of the foregoing, except in all cases for possible violations which could not, individually or in the aggregate,
have a Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company is not in violation of any of the
rules, regulations or requirements of the Principal Market and has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances that could reasonably

Market, (ii) trading in the Common Stock has not been suspended by the SEC or the Principal Market and (iii) the Company has received

such certificates, authorizations or permits would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and neither
the Company nor any such Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such
certificate, authorization or permit. There is no agreement, commitment, judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party which has or would reasonably
be expected to have the effect of prohibiting or materially impairing any business practice of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
any acquisition of property by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the conduct of business by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
as currently conducted other than such effects, individually or in the aggregate, which have not had and would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

evidencing Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is or may

other than those incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ respective businesses and which,
individually or in the aggregate, do not or could not have a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Agreement: (x) “Indebtedness”

(H) above; (y) “Contingent Obligation” means, as to any Person, any direct or indirect liability, contingent
or otherwise, of that Person with respect to any Indebtedness, lease, dividend or other obligation of another Person if the primary
purpose or intent of the Person incurring such liability, or the primary effect thereof, is to provide assurance to the obligee
of such liability that such liability will be paid or discharged, or that any agreements relating thereto will be complied with,
or that the holders of such liability will be protected (in whole or in part) against loss with respect thereto; and (z) “Person”
means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization,
any other entity and any Governmental Entity or any department or agency thereof.


 


(t) Litigation.
Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents and Schedule 3(t), there is no action, suit, arbitration, proceeding, inquiry or investigation
before or by the Principal Market, any court, public board, other Governmental Entity, self-regulatory organization or body pending
or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Common Stock or
any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ officers or directors, whether of a civil or criminal nature or otherwise,
in their capacities as such, which is outside of the ordinary course of business or individually or in the aggregate material to
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. No director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries has willfully
violated 18 U.S.C. §1519 or engaged in spoliation in reasonable anticipation of litigation. Without limitation of the foregoing,
there has not been, and to the knowledge of the Company, there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the SEC involving
the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any current or former director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The
SEC has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company
under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, including, without limitation, the Registration Statement. After reasonable inquiry of its
employees, the Company is not aware of any fact which might result in or form the basis for any such action, suit, arbitration,
investigation, inquiry or other proceeding. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any order, writ, judgment,
injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Entity.


 




    13


     


    

 


(u) Insurance.
The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and
risks and in such amounts as management of the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company
and its Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or
applied for, and neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will be unable 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.


 


(v) Employee
Relations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any collective bargaining agreement or employs any
member of a union. The Company and its Subsidiaries believe that their relations with their employees are good. No executive officer
(as defined in Rule 501(f) promulgated under the 1933 Act) or other key employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has
notified the Company or any such Subsidiary that such officer intends to leave the Company or any such Subsidiary or otherwise
terminate such officer’s employment with the Company or any such Subsidiary. No executive officer or other key employee of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract,
confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement
or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer or other key employee (as the case may
be) does not subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The
Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor,
employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure
to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.


 


(w) Title.


 


(i) Real
Property. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries holds good title to all real property, leases in real property, facilities
or other interests in real property owned or held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Real Property”)
owned by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as applicable). The Real Property is free and clear of all Liens and is not subject
to any rights of way, building use restrictions, exceptions, variances, reservations, or limitations of any nature except for (a)
Liens for current taxes not yet due and (b) zoning laws and other land use restrictions that do not impair the present or anticipated
use of the property subject thereto. Any Real Property 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 or any of its Subsidiaries.


 




    14


     


    

 


(ii) Fixtures
and Equipment. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as applicable) has good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in,
the tangible personal property, equipment, improvements, fixtures, and other personal property and appurtenances that are used
by the Company or its Subsidiary in connection with the conduct of its business (the “Fixtures and Equipment”).
The Fixtures and Equipment are structurally sound, are in good operating condition and repair, are adequate for the uses to which
they are being put, are not in need of maintenance or repairs except for ordinary, routine maintenance and repairs and are sufficient
for the conduct of the Company’s and/or its Subsidiaries’ businesses (as applicable) in the manner as conducted prior
to the Closing. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries owns all of its Fixtures and Equipment free and clear of all Liens except
for (a) Liens for current taxes not yet due and (b) zoning laws and other land use restrictions that do not impair the present
or anticipated use of the property subject thereto.


 


(x) 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, original works of authorship, patents, patent rights, copyrights, inventions,
licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights and all applications and
registrations therefor (“Intellectual Property Rights”) necessary to conduct their respective businesses as
now conducted. Except as set forth in Schedule 3(x)(ii), none of the Company's Intellectual Property Rights have expired or terminated
or have been abandoned or are expected to expire or terminate or are expected to be abandoned, within three years from the date
of this Agreement. The Company does not have any knowledge of any infringement by the Company or its Subsidiaries of Intellectual
Property Rights of others. There is no claim, action or proceeding being made or brought, or to the knowledge of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries, being threatened, against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries regarding its Intellectual Property Rights.
Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is aware of any facts or circumstances which might give rise to any of the foregoing
infringements or claims, actions or proceedings. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect
the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their Intellectual Property Rights.


 


(y) Environmental
Laws. (i) The Company and its Subsidiaries (A) are in compliance with any and all Environmental Laws (as defined below), (B)
have received all permits, licenses or other approvals required of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their respective
businesses and (C) are in compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval where, in each of the
foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the failure to so comply could be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate,
a Material Adverse Effect. The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or foreign laws relating to
pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater,
land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, 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, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated
or approved thereunder.


 




    15


     


    

 


(ii) No
Hazardous Materials:


 


(A) have
been disposed of or otherwise released into any Real Property (as defined below) in violation of any Environmental Laws; or


 


(B) are
present on, over, beneath, in or upon any Real Property or any portion thereof in quantities that would constitute a violation
of any Environmental Laws. No prior use by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any Real Property has occurred that violates
any Environmental Laws, which violation would have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.


 


(iii) Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries knows of any other person who or entity which has stored, treated, recycled, disposed of
or otherwise located any Hazardous Materials on any Real Property, including, without limitation, such substances as asbestos and
polychlorinated biphenyls.


 


(iv) None
of the Real Properties are on any federal or state “Superfund” list or Liability Information System (“CERCLIS”)
list or any state environmental agency list of sites under consideration for CERCLIS, nor subject to any environmental related
Liens.


 


(z) Subsidiary
Rights. The Company or one of its Subsidiaries has the unrestricted right to vote, and (subject to limitations imposed by applicable
law) to receive dividends and distributions on, all capital securities of its Subsidiaries as owned by the Company or such Subsidiary.


 


(aa)Tax Status.
The Company and each of its Subsidiaries (i) has timely made or filed all foreign, federal and state income and all other tax returns,
reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has timely 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 (iii) 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 and its Subsidiaries know
of no basis for any such claim. The Company is not operated in such a manner as to qualify as a passive foreign investment company,
as defined in Section 1297 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The net operating
loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) for United States federal income tax purposes of the consolidated group of which
the Company is the common parent, if any, shall not be adversely effected by the transactions contemplated hereby. The transactions
contemplated hereby do not constitute an “ownership change” within the meaning of Section 382 of the Code, thereby
preserving the Company’s ability to utilize such NOLs.


 


(bb)Internal
Accounting and Disclosure Controls. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintains
internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the 1934 Act) that is effective to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, including 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 GAAP and to maintain asset and liability accountability, (iii) access to assets or incurrence
of liabilities is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv) the recorded
accountability for assets and liabilities is compared with the existing assets and liabilities at reasonable intervals and appropriate
action is taken with respect to any difference.


 




    16


     


    

 


(cc)Off Balance
Sheet Arrangements. There is no transaction, arrangement, or other relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
and an unconsolidated or other off balance sheet entity that is required to be disclosed by the Company in its 1934 Act filings
and is not so disclosed or that otherwise could be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(dd)Investment
Company Status. The Company is not, and upon consummation of the sale of the Securities will not be, an “investment company,”
an affiliate of an “investment company,” a company controlled by an “investment company” or an “affiliated
person” of, or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company” as
such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.


 


(ee)Acknowledgement
Regarding Buyers’ Trading Activity. It is understood and acknowledged by the Company that (i) following the public disclosure
of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, in accordance with the terms thereof, none of the Buyers have been
asked by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to agree, nor has any Buyer agreed with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
to desist from effecting any transactions in or with respect to (including, without limitation, purchasing or selling, long and/or
short) any securities of the Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued by the Company or to hold
any of the Securities for any specified term; (ii) any Buyer, and counterparties in “derivative” transactions to which
any such Buyer is a party, directly or indirectly, presently may have a “short” position in the Common Stock which
was established prior to such Buyer’s knowledge of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents; (iii) each
Buyer shall not be deemed to have any affiliation with or control over any arm’s length counterparty in any “derivative”
transaction; and (iv) each Buyer may rely on the Company’s obligation to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise
or exchange, as applicable, of the Securities as and when required pursuant to the Transaction Documents for purposes of effecting
trading in the Common Stock of the Company. The Company further understands and acknowledges that following the public disclosure
of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents pursuant to the Press Release (as defined below) one or more Buyers
may engage in hedging and/or trading activities (including, without limitation, the location and/or reservation of borrowable shares
of Common Stock) at various times during the period that the Securities are outstanding, including, without limitation, during
the periods that the value and/or number of the Warrant Shares deliverable with respect to the Securities are being determined
and such hedging and/or trading activities (including, without limitation, the location and/or reservation of borrowable shares
of Common Stock), if any, can reduce the value of the existing shareholders’ equity interest in the Company both at and after
the time the hedging and/or trading activities are being conducted. The Company acknowledges that such aforementioned hedging and/or
trading activities do not constitute a breach of this Agreement, the Warrants or any other Transaction Document or any of the documents
executed in connection herewith or therewith.

paid in connection with the issuance, sale and transfer of the Securities to be sold to each Buyer hereunder will be, or will have
been, fully paid or provided for by the Company, and all laws imposing such taxes will be or will have been complied with.


 


(jj)Bank Holding
Company Act. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended
(the “BHCA”) and to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal

(i) Amendments
to the Registration Statement; Prospectus Supplements; Free Writing Prospectuses. Except as provided in this Agreement and
other than periodic reports required to be filed pursuant to the 1934 Act, the Company shall not file with the SEC any amendment
to the Registration Statement that relates to the Buyer, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or file
with the SEC any Prospectus Supplement that relates to the Buyer, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby
with respect to which (a) the Buyer shall not previously have been advised, (b) the Company shall not have given due consideration
to any comments thereon received from the Buyer or its counsel, or (c) the Buyer shall reasonably object after being so advised,
unless the Company reasonably has determined that it is necessary to amend the Registration Statement or make any supplement to
the Prospectus to comply with the 1933 Act or any other applicable law or regulation, in which case the Company shall promptly
(but in no event later than 24 hours) so inform the Buyer, the Buyer shall be provided with a reasonable opportunity to review
and comment upon any disclosure relating to the Buyer and the Company shall expeditiously furnish to the Buyer an electronic copy
thereof. In addition, for so long as, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Buyer, the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the
notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the 1933 Act) is required to be delivered in connection with any acquisition or sale of
Securities by the Buyer, the Company shall not file any Prospectus Supplement with respect to the Securities without delivering
or making available a copy of such Prospectus Supplement, together with the Prospectus, to the Buyer promptly.


 


(ii) The
Company has not made, and agrees that unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Buyer it will not make, an offer relating
to the Securities that would constitute an “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433 promulgated under
the 1933 Act (an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”) or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing
prospectus” as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the 1933 Act (a “Free Writing Prospectus”) required
to be filed by the Company or the Buyer with the SEC or retained by the Company or the Buyer under Rule 433 under the 1933 Act.
The Buyer has not made, and agrees that unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Company it will not make, an offer relating
to the Securities that would constitute a Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed by the Company with the SEC or retained
by the Company under Rule 433 under the 1933 Act. Any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other Free Writing Prospectus consented
to by the Buyer or the Company is referred to in this Agreement as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The
Company agrees that (x) it has treated and will treat, as the case may be, each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus and (y) it has complied and will comply, as the case may be, with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433
under the 1933 Act applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of timely filing with the SEC, legending
and record keeping.


 


(c) Prospectus
Delivery. Immediately prior to execution of this Agreement, the Company shall have delivered to the Buyer, and as soon as practicable
after execution of this Agreement the Company shall file, Prospectus Supplements with respect to the Securities to be issued on
the Closing Date, as required under, and in conformity with, the 1933 Act, including Rule 424(b) thereunder. The Company shall
provide the Buyer a reasonable opportunity to comment on a draft of each Prospectus Supplement and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus,
shall give due consideration to all such comments and, subject to the provisions of Section 4(b) hereof, shall deliver or make
available to the Buyer, without charge, an electronic copy of each form of Prospectus Supplement, together with the Prospectus,
and any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus on the Closing Date. The Company consents to the use of the Prospectus (and of any Prospectus
Supplements thereto) in accordance with the provisions of the 1933 Act and with the securities or “blue sky” laws of
the jurisdictions in which the Securities may be sold by the Buyer, in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities
and for such period of time thereafter as the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the 1933
Act) is required by the 1933 Act to be delivered in connection with sales of the Securities. If during such period of time any
event shall occur that in the judgment of the Company and its counsel is required to be set forth in the Registration Statement
or the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus or should be set forth therein in order to make the statements made
therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or if it is necessary
to amend the Registration Statement or supplement or amend the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus to comply with
the 1933 Act or any other applicable law or regulation, the Company shall forthwith prepare and, subject to Section 4(b) above,
file with the SEC an appropriate amendment to the Registration Statement or Prospectus Supplement to the Prospectus (or supplement
to the Permitted Free Writing Prospectus) and shall expeditiously furnish or make available to the Buyer an electronic copy thereof.


 




    22


     


    

 


(d) Stop
Orders. The Company shall advise the Buyer promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours) and shall confirm such advice in
writing: (i) of the Company’s receipt of notice of any request by the SEC for amendment of or a supplement to the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus or for any additional information; (ii) of the Company’s
receipt of notice of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or prohibiting
or suspending the use of the Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement, or of the suspension of qualification of the Securities for
offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or contemplated initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; (iii) of
the Company becoming aware of the happening of any event, which makes any statement of a material fact made in the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus untrue or which requires the making of any additions to or changes
to the statements then made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus in order to
state a material fact required by the 1933 Act to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements then made therein
(in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or of the necessity to
amend the Registration Statement or supplement the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus to comply with the 1933
Act or any other law or (iv) if at any time following the date hereof the Registration Statement is not effective or is not otherwise
available for the issuance of the Securities or any Prospectus contained therein is not available for use for any other reason.
Thereafter, the Company shall promptly notify such holders when the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Permitted Free
Writing Prospectus and/or any amendment or supplement thereto, as applicable, is effective and available for the issuance of the
Securities. If at any time the SEC shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or prohibiting
or suspending the use of the Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement, the Company shall use best efforts to obtain the withdrawal
of such order at the earliest possible time.


 


(e) Blue

qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Buyers on or prior to the Closing Date. Without limiting
any other obligation of the Company under this Agreement, the Company shall timely make all filings and reports relating to the
offer and sale of the Securities required under all applicable securities laws (including, without limitation, all applicable federal

contemplated hereby; provided, however, the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Buyer, to make the Press
Release and any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the
8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith and (ii) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case
of clause (i) each Buyer shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure
prior to its release). Without the prior written consent of the applicable Buyer (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s

Buyer in any filing, announcement, release or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary and
without implication that the contrary would otherwise be true, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that no Buyer shall
have (unless expressly agreed to by a particular Buyer after the date hereof in a written definitive and binding agreement executed
by the Company and such particular Buyer (it being understood and agreed that no Buyer may bind any other Buyer with respect thereto)),
any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, any material, non-public information regarding

to this clause (C) must be restricted securities without any registration rights and (V) all such issuances of Common Stock after

(n) Reservation
of Shares. So long as any of the Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have
authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, no less than 100% of the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
of all the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants set forth therein) (collectively,
the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved
pursuant to this Section 4(n) be reduced other than proportionally in connection with any exercise of the Warrants. If at any time
the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is not sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount,
the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including,
without limitation, calling a special meeting of shareholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company's obligations
pursuant to the Transaction Documents, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, obtain shareholder approval
of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and voting the management shares of the Company in favor of an increase in
the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number of authorized shares is sufficient to meet the Required Reserve
Amount.


 


(o) Conduct
of Business. The business of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or
regulation of any Governmental Entity, except where such violations would not reasonably be expected to result, either individually
or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(p) Variable
Rate Transaction. From the date hereof until such time as no Warrants remain outstanding, the Company and each Subsidiary shall
be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any Subsequent Placement involving a Variable Rate Transaction.
“Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company or any Subsidiary (i) issues or sells any
Convertible Securities either (A) at a conversion, exercise 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 Convertible 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 Convertible Securities or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business
of the Company or the market for the Common Stock, other than pursuant to a customary “weighted average” anti-dilution
provision or (ii) enters into any agreement (including, without limitation, an equity line of credit or an “at-the-market”
offering) whereby the Company or any Subsidiary may sell securities at a future determined price (other than standard and customary
“preemptive” or “participation” rights). Each Buyer shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against
the Company and its Subsidiaries to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.


 


(q) Participation
Right. From the date hereof through the first anniversary of the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
shall, directly or indirectly, effect any Subsequent Placement unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section 4(q).


 


(i) At
least three (3) Trading Days prior to any proposed or intended Subsequent Placement, the Company shall deliver to each Buyer a
written notice of its proposal or intention to effect a Subsequent Placement (each such notice, a “Pre-Notice”),
which Pre-Notice shall not contain any information (including, without limitation, material, non-public information) other than:
(A) if the proposed Offer Notice (as defined below) constitutes or contains material, non-public information, a statement asking
whether the Investor is willing to accept material non-public information or (B) if the proposed Offer Notice does not constitute
or contain material, non-public information, (x) a statement that the Company proposes or intends to effect a Subsequent Placement,
(y) a statement that the statement in clause (x) above does not constitute material, non-public information and (z) a statement
informing such Buyer that it is entitled to receive an Offer Notice (as defined below) with respect to such Subsequent Placement
upon its written request. Upon the written request of a Buyer within two (2) Trading Days after the Company’s delivery to
such Buyer of such Pre-Notice, and only upon a written request by such Buyer, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one
(1) Trading Day after such request, deliver to such Buyer an irrevocable written notice (the “Offer Notice”)
of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the “Offer”) of the securities being offered (the
“Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (A) identify and describe the Offered
Securities, (B) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount
of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (C) identify the Persons (if known) to which or with which the Offered
Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (D) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Buyer in accordance
with the terms of the Offer up to thirty-five percent (35%) in total of the Offered Securities, provided that the number of Offered
Securities which such Buyer shall have the right to subscribe for under this Section 4(q) shall be (x) based on such Buyer’s
pro rata portion of the aggregate number of Common Shares purchased hereunder by all Buyers (the “Basic Amount”),
and (y) with respect to each Buyer that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable
to the Basic Amounts of other Buyers as such Buyer shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Buyers subscribe
for less than their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”), which process shall be repeated until each
Buyer shall have an opportunity to subscribe for any remaining Undersubscription Amount.


 




    28


     


    

 


(ii) To
accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Buyer must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the third (3rd)
Business Day after such Buyer’s receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion
of such Buyer’s Basic Amount that such Buyer elects to purchase and, if such Buyer shall elect to purchase all of its Basic
Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Buyer elects to purchase (in either case, the “Notice of Acceptance”).
If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Buyers are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Buyer who has
set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts
subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed
for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available
Undersubscription Amount”), each Buyer who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase
only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Buyer bears to the total Basic Amounts
of all Buyers that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent it deems reasonably
necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer prior
to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company may deliver to each Buyer a new Offer Notice and the Offer Period shall expire
on the third (3rd) Business Day after such Buyer’s receipt of such new Offer Notice.


 


(iii) The
Company shall have five (5) days from the expiration of the Offer Period above (A) to offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any
part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by a Buyer (the “Refused Securities”)
pursuant to a definitive agreement(s) (the “Subsequent Placement Agreement”), but only to the offerees described
in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and
interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set
forth in the Offer Notice and (B) to publicly announce (x) the execution of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, and (y) either
(I) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Subsequent Placement Agreement or (II) the termination of such Subsequent
Placement Agreement, which shall be filed with the SEC on a Current Report on Form 8-K with such Subsequent Placement Agreement
and any documents contemplated therein filed as exhibits thereto.


 


(iv) In
the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the
terms specified in Section 4(q)(iii) above), then each Buyer may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the
number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number
or amount of the Offered Securities that such Buyer elected to purchase pursuant to Section 4(q)(ii) above multiplied by a
fraction, (A) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue,
sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Buyers pursuant to this Section 4(q) prior to such
reduction) and (B) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that any Buyer
so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue,
sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been
offered to the Buyers in accordance with Section 4(q)(i) above.


 




    29


     


    

 


(v) Upon
the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, such Buyer shall acquire from
the Company, and the Company shall issue to such Buyer, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance,
as reduced pursuant to Section 4(q)(iv) above if such Buyer has so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the
Offer. The purchase by such Buyer of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery
by the Company and such Buyer of a separate purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form
and substance to such Buyer and its counsel.


 


(vi) Any
Offered Securities not acquired by a Buyer or other Persons in accordance with this Section 4(q) may not be issued, sold or
exchanged until they are again offered to such Buyer under the procedures specified in this Agreement.


 


(vii) The
Company and each Buyer agree that if any Buyer elects to participate in the Offer, neither the Subsequent Placement Agreement with
respect to such Offer nor any other transaction documents related thereto (collectively, the “Subsequent Placement Documents”)
shall include any term or provision whereby such Buyer shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any securities
of the Company or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under
or in connection with, any agreement previously entered into with the Company or any instrument received from the Company.


 


(viii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 4(q) and unless otherwise agreed to by such Buyer, the Company shall either confirm in
writing to such Buyer that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Placement has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose
its intention to issue the Offered Securities, in either case, in such a manner such that such Buyer will not be in possession
of any material, non-public information, by the fifth (5th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice. If
by such fifth (5th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Offered Securities
has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Buyer, such transaction shall
be deemed to have been abandoned and such Buyer shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect
to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Should the Company decide to pursue such transaction with respect to the Offered Securities,
the Company shall provide such Buyer with another Offer Notice in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Section 4(q)and
such Buyer will again have the right of participation set forth in this Section 4(q). The Company shall not be permitted to deliver
more than one such Offer Notice to such Buyer in any sixty (60) day period, except as expressly contemplated by the last sentence
of Section 4(q)(ii).


 


(ix) The
restrictions contained in this Section 4(q) shall not apply in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities. The Company
shall not circumvent the provisions of this Section 4(q) by providing terms or conditions to one Buyer that are not provided to
all.


 


(r) Passive
Foreign Investment Company. The Company shall conduct its business, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to conduct their respective
businesses, in such a manner as will ensure that the Company will not be deemed to constitute a passive foreign investment company
within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code.


 




    30


     


    

 


(s) Corporate
Existence. So long as any Buyer beneficially owns any Warrants, the Company shall not be party to any Fundamental Transaction
(as defined in the Warrants) unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions
set forth in the Warrants.


 


(t) Stock
Splits. So long as any Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall not effect any stock combination, reverse stock split
or other similar transaction (or make any public announcement or disclosure with respect to any of the foregoing) without the prior
written consent of the Required Holders (as defined below), except for the purposes of maintaining its compliance with Section
4(i) herein.


 


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


 


(v) Regulation
M. The Company will not take any action prohibited by Regulation M under the 1934 Act, in connection with the distribution
of the Securities contemplated hereby.


 


(w) Closing
Documents. On or prior to fourteen (14) calendar days after the Closing Date, the Company agrees to deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to each Buyer and Kelley Drye & Warren, LLP a complete closing set of the executed Transaction Documents, Securities
and any other document required to be delivered to any party pursuant to Section 7 hereof or otherwise.


 


(x) D&O
Insurance Policy. On or before six (6) month anniversary after the Closing Date, the Company agrees to use its best efforts
to obtain an insurance policy coverage for the Company’s officers and directors with reputable insurers in the amount of
such insurance coverage of at least $2,000,000 and to include the Placement Agent as an additional insured party to the directors
and officers insurance coverage.


 


5.
REGISTER; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS; LEGEND.


 


(a) Register.
The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate
by notice to each holder of Securities), a register for the Common Shares and the Warrants in which the Company shall record the
name and address of the Person in whose name the Common Shares and the Warrants have been issued (including the name and address
of each transferee), the number of Common Shares held by such Person and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
the Warrants held by such Person. The Company shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for
inspection of any Buyer or its legal representatives.


 




    31


     


    

 


(b) Transfer
Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its Transfer Agent and any subsequent transfer agent
in a form acceptable to each of the Buyers (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) to issue certificates
or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC, registered in the name of each Buyer or its respective nominee(s),
for the Common Shares and the Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to the Company upon the
exercise of the Warrants (as the case may be). The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable
Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5(b) will be given by the Company to its Transfer Agent with respect
to the Securities, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company, as applicable,
to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. If a Buyer effects a sale, assignment or transfer
of the Securities, the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its Transfer Agent to issue one or more certificates
or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Buyer to
effect such sale, transfer or assignment. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause
irreparable harm to a Buyer. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under
this Section 5(b) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions
of this Section 5(b), that a Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction
restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without
any bond or other security being required. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue each legal opinion referred to in the Irrevocable
Transfer Agent Instructions to the Transfer Agent as follows: (i) at the Closing with respect to the Common Shares, (ii) upon each
exercise of the Warrants (unless such issuance covered by a prior legal opinion previously delivered to the Transfer Agent), and
(iii) on each date a registration statement with respect to the issuance or resale of any of the Securities is declared effective
by the SEC. Any fees (with respect to the Transfer Agent, counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated with the issuance of
such opinions or the removal of any legends on any of the Securities shall be borne by the Company.


 


(c) Legends.
Certificates and any other instruments evidencing the Securities shall not bear any restrictive or other legend.


 


(d) FAST
Compliance. While any Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall maintain a transfer agent that participates in the DTC
Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program.

MISCELLANEOUS.


 


(a) Governing
Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect
to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would
cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State 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 under any of the other Transaction Documents or in connection herewith or therewith or with any transaction
contemplated hereby or thereby or discussed herein or therein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit,
action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action
or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party
hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding
by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such 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 manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude
any Buyer from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s
obligations to such Buyer or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of such Buyer. The Company hereby appoints Corporation

(b) Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement
and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that
any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an
executed signature page, such signature page 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 signature page were an original thereof.


 


(c) Headings;
Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation
of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine,
feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include”
and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,”
“hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision
in which they are found.

(d) Severability;
Maximum Payment Amounts. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable
by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed
amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such
provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified
continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited
nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations
or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the
parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s)
with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and without implication
that the following is required or applicable), it is the intention of the parties that in no event shall amounts and value paid
by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by any of the Buyers, under the Transaction
Documents (including without limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as “interest” under applicable law)
exceed amounts permitted under any applicable law. Accordingly, if any obligation to pay, payment made to any Buyer, or collection
by any Buyer pursuant the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determined to be contrary to any such applicable law, such
obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of such Buyer, the Company and its
Subsidiaries and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest,
as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law. Such adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary,
by reducing or refunding, at the option of such Buyer, the amount of interest or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful
amounts required to be paid or actually paid to such Buyer under the Transaction Documents. For greater certainty, to the extent
that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by such Buyer under any of the Transaction
Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term to otherwise
be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.


 


(e) Entire
Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto
and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, the
Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions
by any Buyer with respect to Common Stock or the Securities, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement,
the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and
therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided,
however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect
on any agreements any Buyer has entered into with, or any instruments any Buyer has received from, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Buyer in the Company or (ii) waive, alter, modify or
amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any rights of or benefits to any Buyer or any
other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries
and any Buyer, or any instruments any Buyer received from the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof,
and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full force and effect. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein,
neither the Company nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For
clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an
instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Required Holders (as defined below), and any amendment to any provision of
this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities,
as applicable, provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (A) applies to less than all of the holders
of the Securities then outstanding or (B) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written
consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). No waiver shall be effective unless it is in
writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the Required Holders may waive any provision
of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e)
shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the
extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as
to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which
may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). No consideration (other than reimbursement of legal fees) shall
be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents
unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents, all holders of the Common Shares,
or all holders of the Warrants (as the case may be). From the date hereof and while any Warrants are outstanding, the Company shall
not be permitted to receive any consideration from a Buyer or a holder of Warrants that is not otherwise contemplated by the Transaction
Documents in order to, directly or indirectly, induce the Company or any Subsidiary (i) to treat such Buyer or holder of Warrants
in a manner that is more favorable than to other similarly situated Buyers or holders of Warrants, as applicable, or (ii) to treat
any Buyer(s) or holder(s) of Warrants in a manner that is less favorable than the Buyer or holder of Warrants that is paying such
consideration; provided, however, that the determination of whether a Buyer has been treated more or less favorably than another
Buyer shall disregard any securities of the Company purchased or sold by any Buyer. The Company has not, directly or indirectly,
made any agreements with any Buyers relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents
except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company confirms that, except as set forth
in this Agreement, no Buyer has made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to the Company,
any Subsidiary or otherwise. As a material inducement for each Buyer to enter into this Agreement, the Company expressly acknowledges
and agrees that (x) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by a Buyer, any of its advisors or any of its
representatives shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to
any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (y) nothing
contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely
on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained
in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (z) unless a provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
is expressly preceded by the phrase “except as disclosed in the SEC Documents,” nothing contained in any of the SEC
Documents shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any
of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. “Required
Holders” means (I) prior to the Closing Date, all the Buyers hereunder and (II) on or after the Closing Date, holders
of, in the aggregate, at least a majority of the Underlying Securities as of such time (excluding any Underlying Securities held
by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as of such time) issued or issuable hereunder or pursuant to the Warrants.

assigns, including any purchasers of any of the Warrants (but excluding any purchasers of Underlying Securities, unless pursuant
to a written assignment by such Buyer). The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Required Holders, including, without limitation, by way of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined
in the Warrants) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth
in the Warrants). A Buyer may assign some or all of its rights hereunder in connection with any transfer of any of its Securities
without the consent of the Company, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to such assigned
rights.


 


(h) No
Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted
successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, other than
the Indemnitees referred to in Section 9(k).


 


(i) Survival.
The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants shall survive the Closing. Each Buyer shall be responsible only for its
own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.


 


(j) Further
Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall
execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request
in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.


 


(k) Indemnification.


 


(i) In
consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder
and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect,
indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and each holder of any Securities and all of their shareholders, partners, members, officers,
directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including,
without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”)
from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages,
and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification
hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation
or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary in any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement
or obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary contained in any of the Transaction Documents or (iii) any cause of action, suit,
proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action
brought on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary) or which otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from
(A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to
be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (C) any disclosure
properly made by such Buyer pursuant to Section 4(l), or (D) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities either as
an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement
(including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise in any action or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable
relief). To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make
the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable
law.


 




    38


     


    

 


(ii) Promptly
after receipt by an Indemnitee under this Section 9(k) of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any
governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is
to be made against the Company under this Section 9(k), deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and
the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense
thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have
the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Company if: (A) the Company has
agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (B) the Company shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Indemnified
Liability and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee in any such Indemnified Liability; or (C) the named
parties to any such Indemnified Liability (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnitee and the Company, and such
Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent
such Indemnitee and the Company (in which case, if such Indemnitee notifies the Company in writing that it elects to employ separate
counsel at the expense of the Company, then the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel
shall be at the expense of the Company), provided further, that in the case of clause (C) above the Company shall not be responsible
for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate legal counsel for the Indemnitees. The Indemnitee shall reasonably
cooperate with the Company in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Indemnified Liability by the Company
and shall furnish to the Company all information reasonably available to the Indemnitee which relates to such action or Indemnified
Liability. The Company shall keep the Indemnitee reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement
negotiations with respect thereto. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected
without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the Company shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its
consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff
to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such Indemnified Liability or litigation, and such settlement
shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnitee. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder,
the Company shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating
to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable
time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section
9(k), except to the extent that the Company is materially and adversely prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.


 


(iii) The
indemnification required by this Section 9(k) shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the
investigation or defense, within ten (10) days after bills are received or Indemnified Liabilities are incurred.


 


(iv) The
indemnity agreement contained herein shall be in addition to (A) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnitee against
the Company or others, and (B) any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to the law.


 


(l) Construction.
The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and
no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality
or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each and every reference to share prices, shares of Common Stock
and any other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock shall be automatically adjusted for any stock splits, stock
dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after
the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained
herein shall constitute a representation or warranty against, or a prohibition of, any actions with respect to the borrowing of,
arrangement to borrow, identification of the availability of, and/or securing of, securities of the Company in order for such Buyer
(or its broker or other financial representative) to effect short sales or similar transactions in the future.


 




    39


     


    

 


(m) Remedies.
Each Buyer and in the event of assignment by Buyer of its rights and obligations hereunder, each holder of Securities, shall have
all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents 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 such holders have under any 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 breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights
granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it or any Subsidiary fails to perform, observe, or discharge
any or all of its or such Subsidiary’s (as the case may be) obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law
would inadequate relief to the Buyers. The Company therefore agrees that the Buyers shall be entitled to specific performance and/or
temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such
case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The remedies provided in this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement
and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).


 


(n) Withdrawal
Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction
Documents, whenever any Buyer exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company or any
Subsidiary does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Buyer may rescind or
withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company or such Subsidiary (as the case may be),
any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.


 


(o) Payment
Set Aside; Currency. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Buyer hereunder or pursuant to any of
the other Transaction Documents or any of the Buyers enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or 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, foreign, 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. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents are in United States Dollars (“U.S. Dollars”), and all amounts owing under this Agreement
and all other Transaction Documents shall be paid in U.S. Dollars. All amounts denominated in other currencies (if any) shall be
converted into the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation. “Exchange
Rate” means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into U.S. Dollars pursuant to this Agreement, the
U.S. Dollar exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation.


 




    40


     


    

 


(p) Judgment
Currency.


 


(i) If
for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Company in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document in any court in any jurisdiction it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter
in this Section 9(p) referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in US Dollars under this Agreement,
the conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Trading Day immediately preceding:


 


(1) the
date actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of New York or in the courts of any other jurisdiction
that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date: or


 


(2) the
date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as
of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 9(p)(i)(1) being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment
Conversion Date”).


 


(ii) If
in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 9(p)(i)(1) above, there is a change
in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable
party shall pay such adjusted amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted
at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of US Dollars which could have been purchased with
the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion
Date.


 


(iii) Any
amount due from the Company under this provision shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained
for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.


 


(q) Independent
Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Buyer under the Transaction Documents are several and
not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations
of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action
taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and the Company acknowledges that the
Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption
that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity, and the Company shall not assert any such claim with
respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and the Company acknowledges
that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The decision of each Buyer to purchase Securities pursuant
to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Buyer independently of any other Buyer. Each Buyer acknowledges that no other
Buyer has acted as agent for such Buyer in connection with such Buyer making its investment hereunder and that no other Buyer will
be acting as agent of such Buyer in connection with monitoring such Buyer’s investment in the Securities or enforcing its
rights under the Transaction Documents. The Company and each Buyer confirms that each Buyer has independently participated with
the Company and its Subsidiaries in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and
advisors. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights
arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be
joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The use of a single agreement to effectuate the purchase and
sale of the Securities contemplated hereby was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of any Buyer, and
was done solely for the convenience of the Company and its Subsidiaries and not because it was required or requested to do so by
any Buyer. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction
Document is between the Company, each Subsidiary and a Buyer, solely, and not between the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Buyers
collectively and not between and among the Buyers.
