No Conflict, Breach, Violation or Default. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by
the Company and the issuance and sale of the Shares will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of (a) any

any court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective assets or properties,

or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default)

relating to labor, employment, fair employment practices, terms and conditions of employment, and wages and hours, and with the
terms of the ERISA Documents; and (b) each such ERISA Document is in compliance in all respects with all applicable requirements
of ERISA. To the Company’s Knowledge, none of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ employees are obligated under
any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree
or order of any court or administrative agency, that would interfere with the use of his or her employment obligations to the Company
or its Subsidiaries or that would conflict with the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ business as now conducted or proposed
to be conducted, except for such contracts and other agreements, judgments, decrees and orders that would not, individually or
in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


4.15        
Intellectual Property. All Intellectual Property Rights purported to be owned by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
that were developed, worked on or otherwise held by any employee, officer, consultant or otherwise are owned free and clear by
the Company or one of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be) by operation of law or have been validly assigned to the Company one
of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be) other than those Intellectual Property Rights where the failure to own or assign such
rights would not, individually or in its aggregate be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Intellectual Property
Rights are sufficient in all material respects to carry on the business of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries as presently
conducted and as proposed to be conducted. To the knowledge of the Company, with such exceptions as are not, individually or in
the aggregate reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Intellectual Property Rights purported to be owned by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries do not infringe the intellectual property rights of any third party. To the Knowledge of the
Company, the conduct of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ businesses as currently conducted does not infringe or
otherwise impair or conflict with (collectively, “Infringe”) any Intellectual Property Rights of any third party
or any confidentiality obligation owed to a third party, and, to the Company’s Knowledge, the Intellectual Property Rights
and Confidential Information of the Company and its Subsidiaries which are necessary for the conduct of Company’s and each
of its Subsidiaries’ respective businesses as currently conducted or as currently proposed to be conducted are not being
Infringed by any third party. There is no litigation or order pending or outstanding or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened,
that seeks to limit or challenge or that concerns the ownership, use, validity or enforceability of any Intellectual Property Rights
or Confidential Information of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ use of any
Intellectual Property Rights or Confidential Information owned by a third party, and, to the Company’s Knowledge, there is

situated companies for the business being conducted and properties owned or leased by the Company and each Subsidiary. All such

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
Affiliates nor any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps referred to in the preceding sentence that would
require registration of the issuance of any of the Shares under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of any of the Shares to be integrated

or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity
with GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets, (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

reports that it furnishes or files under the 1934 Act is reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the
SEC and that such material information is communicated to the Company’s management to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. To the Company’s Knowledge, there is no (i) significant deficiency in the design or operation of internal controls
which could adversely affect the Company’s or any of its Subsidiary’s ability to record, process, summarize and report

or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s or any of its Subsidiary’s internal controls.

and warrants to the Company that:

company and has all requisite corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority to purchase the Shares pursuant
to this Agreement.


 






    14


     


    

 


5.2           Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by such Investor of the Transaction Documents to which such
Investor is a party have been duly authorized and, assuming due execution and delivery thereof by each of the other parties thereto,
each will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Investor, enforceable against such Investor in accordance
with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar legal requirement relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and except
as such enforceability is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding
in equity or at law).


 


5.3           Consents. No consent, approval, license or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any court
or governmental authority is or will be required on the part of such Investor in connection with the execution, delivery and performance

5.4           Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Shares to be received by such Investor hereunder will be acquired for such
Investor’s own account, not as nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof in

the same in violation of the 1933 Act without prejudice, however, to such Investor’s right at all times to sell or otherwise
dispose of all or any part of such Shares in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Nothing contained herein
shall be deemed a representation or warranty by such Investor to hold the Shares for any period of time. Neither such Investor
nor any Affiliate of such Investors is a broker-dealer registered with the SEC under the 1934 Act or an entity engaged in a business
that would require it to be so registered.


 


5.5           Investment Experience. Such Investor acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk and complete loss of its investment
in the Shares and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits

and conditions of the offering of the Shares. Such Investor acknowledges receipt of copies of the SEC Filings. Neither such inquiries
nor any other due diligence investigation conducted by such Investor shall modify, limit or otherwise affect such Investor’s
right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement.



 



    15


     


    

  


5.7           Restricted Securities. Such Investor understands that the are characterized as “restricted securities”
under the U.S. federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public
offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the 1933
Act only in certain limited circumstances.


 


5.8           Legends. It is understood that the book-entry notations evidencing the Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in
substantially the following form (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws), until such time as
they are not required under Section 7.5 or applicable law:


 


“THE SECURITIES
REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE
IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED
UNLESS (I) SUCH SECURITIES HAVE BEEN REGISTERED FOR SALE PURSUANT TO THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, (II) SUCH
SECURITIES MAY BE SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144, OR (III) THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY
TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSFER MAY LAWFULLY BE MADE WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.


 


“THE SECURITIES
REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO TRANSFER AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN A SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT, DATED

OFFICES.”

D, as amended, under the 1933 Act.


 


5.10        
No General Solicitation. Such Investor did not learn of the investment in the Shares as a result of any general advertising
or, to such Investor’s knowledge, general solicitation.


 


5.11        
Brokers and Finders. No Person will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents,
any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the Company, any Subsidiary or an Investor for any commission, fee or other
compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of such Investor.


 






    16


     


    

 


5.12       
Prohibited Transactions. Since the earlier of (a) such time as such Investor was first contacted by the Company
or any other Person acting on behalf of the Company regarding the transactions contemplated hereby or (b) thirty (30) days
prior to the date hereof, neither such Investor nor any Affiliate of such Investor which (x) had knowledge of the transactions
contemplated hereby, (y) has or shares discretion relating to such Investor’s investments or trading or information concerning
such Investor’s investments, including in respect of the Shares, or (z) is subject to such Investor’s review or input
concerning such Affiliate’s investments or trading (collectively, “Trading Affiliates”) has, directly
or indirectly, (A) effected or agreed to effect any transactions in the securities of the Company or involving the Company’s
securities while in possession of any material nonpublic information of the Company disclosed to such Investor in connection with
such Investor’s decision-making with respect to their acquisition of the Shares or (B) effected or agreed to effect any short
sale (as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the 1934 Act (“Short Sales”)), whether or not against the
box, established any “put equivalent position” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the 1934 Act) with respect to the
Common Stock, granted any other right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to the Common Stock

otherwise sought to hedge its position in the Shares (each, a “Prohibited Transaction”). Prior to the earliest
to occur of (i) the termination of this Agreement, (ii) the Effective Date, (iii) the Effectiveness Deadline and (iv) the
date the Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144, each Investor shall not, and shall cause its Trading Affiliates not to, engage,
directly or indirectly, in a Prohibited Transaction. Each Investor understands and acknowledges that the SEC currently takes the
position that covering a short position established prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with shares included
in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in the SEC’s Compliance
and Disclosure Interpretation 239.10.


 


5.13       
Trading Price. Such Investor acknowledges that while the Per Share Price has been determined through negotiations
with third-party unaffiliated Investors, the Company’s stock is thinly traded, and accordingly the trading price of the Company’s
stock may not accurately reflect the current value of the Company.

or otherwise permit such termination. The Company hereby covenants and agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain
its eligibility to register the Shares for resale by the Investors on Form S-3. The failure to file a report in a timely manner
shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Section 7.2 so long as the Investors are able to sell their Shares without restriction
or interruption under an effective Registration Statement filed with the SEC by the Company.


 


7.3          Notice of Disqualification Events. The Company will notify the Investors in writing, prior to the Closing Date of
(i) any Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered Person and (ii) any event that would, with the passage of time, become
a Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered Person.


 






    20


     


    

 


7.4          Listing. The Company will use reasonable best efforts to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock and
to effect and maintain the listing of the Shares on Nasdaq.


 


7.5          Transfer; Removal of Legends. The Shares may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently
registered for resale under the 1933 Act as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, (B) such Investor shall have delivered
to the Company an opinion of counsel, in a reasonably acceptable form, to the effect that such Shares to be sold, assigned or transferred
may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration, or (C) such Investor provides the Company
with reasonable assurance that such Shares can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144. The Company shall, or shall
cause the Transfer Agent to, issue replacement book-entry notations representing the Shares sold or disposed of without restrictive
legends, or, at the election of such Investor, by delivery via the Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system of The Depository Trust
Company (“DTC”), upon the earlier of (i) registration for resale under the 1933 Act at which time the Company
shall cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more blanket opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends
in such circumstances may be effected under the 1933 Act or (ii) the Shares becoming freely tradable by a non-Affiliate pursuant
to Rule 144 and such non-Affiliate delivers to the Company a customary representation that the Shares may be sold pursuant
to Rule 144.


 


7.6          Transfer Restrictions.


 


(a)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary this Agreement, the Investors will not at any time directly or indirectly transfer
or assign any Shares, or any interest therein, knowingly to (i) any person or entity that directly competes with the Company in
one or more material aspects of the Company's business, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company in
its reasonable discretion, or (ii) any member of a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the 1934 Act) which has
filed a statement of beneficial ownership report on Schedule 13D with the SEC or otherwise expressed an interest in acquiring the
Company and any such transfer or assignment shall be null and void unless otherwise approved in advance by the Company; provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not restrict any such transfer into the public market pursuant to a bona fide registered
public offering or any open market transaction or any transfer made in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of
the capital stock, assets or business of the Company, by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise; provided, further,
that the foregoing shall not restrict the ability of the Investors to vote their shares or otherwise execute proxies and/or consents
pertaining thereto.


 


(b)           During the Standstill Period, the Company must be, within a reasonable time after a transfer otherwise permitted hereunder,
furnished with written notice of such transfer, including the name and address of such transferee, and no such transfer may be
made unless such transferee agrees in a written instrument delivered to the Company to be bound by and subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, including the provisions of Section 7.9.


 






    21


     


    

 


7.7         Publicity. Except as set forth below, no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be issued by the Company or the Investors without the prior consent of the Company (in the case of a release or announcement
by the Investors) or the Investors (in the case of a release or announcement by the Company) (which consents shall not be unreasonably
withheld), except as such release or announcement may be required by law or the applicable rules or regulations of any securities
exchange, securities regulator or securities market, in which case the Company or the Investors, as the case may be, shall (except
for filings required to be made by any Investor pursuant to Section 13 and/or Section 16 of the 1934 Act) allow the Investors or
the Company, as applicable, to the extent reasonably practicable in the circumstances, reasonable time to comment on such release
or announcement in advance of such issuance. By 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the trading day immediately following the date
hereof, the Company shall issue a press release (the “Press Release”) disclosing all material terms of the transactions
contemplated hereby and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. No later than the fourth trading day following the date hereof, the Company will file a Current Report on Form 8-K describing
the terms of the Transaction Documents (and including as exhibits to such Current Report on Form 8-K the Transaction Documents
with any schedules attached thereto).


 


7.8        
Confidentiality; Insider Trading Policy.


 


(a)            Each Investor, severally and not jointly with the other Investors, covenants that until the earlier of (x) the issuance
of the Press Release and (y) the first trading day immediately following the date of this Agreement, such Investor will, and will
use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its Affiliates to, maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of
this transaction and the information included in the Transaction Documents and Disclosure Schedules.


 


(b)            The Investors will, and will cause their Affiliates to, maintain the confidentiality of all material nonpublic information
of the Company disclosed to any of them by or on behalf of the Investor Designee (in his or her capacity as a member of the Board).
The Investor Designee shall further agree to comply with the insider trading compliance program of the Company applicable to outside
directors including, but not limited to, trade pre-clearance requirements and trading blackout periods as may be in effect from
time to time. In addition, each Investor hereby acknowledges that such Investor is aware that United States securities laws prohibit
any person who has received from an issuer material nonpublic information concerning the issuer from communicating such information
to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell the
securities of such issuer, make investment recommendations based on such material nonpublic information or otherwise affect the
trading price of such issuer’s securities.


 


7.9        
Standstill. Each Investor agrees that, from the date hereof until June 30, 2019 (the “Standstill Period”),
it will not, and it will cause each of its Affiliates, directors and officers not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior
written consent of the Company’s Board of Directors (for which the Investor Designee shall not be deemed “disinterested”):
(i) make, or in any way participate in, directly or indirectly, any “solicitation” of “proxies” (as such
terms are used in the rules of the SEC) to vote, or seek to advise or influence any person or entity (other than an Affiliate of
the Investor) with respect to the voting of, any debt or equity securities of the Company, including relating to the election of
directors with respect to the Company, (ii) make any public announcement with respect to, or submit a proposal for, or offer of
(with or without conditions) any extraordinary transaction involving the Company or its debt, equity securities or assets, (iii)
form, join or in any way participate in a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) in connection
with any of the foregoing or (iv) request the Company or any of its representatives, directly or indirectly, to amend or waive
any provision of this Section 7.9 other than through non-public communications with the Company that would not be reasonably
determined to trigger public disclosure obligations for any party; provided, however, that the restrictions set forth
in this Section 7.9 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect if the Company enters into a definitive agreement
with respect to, or publicly announces that it plans to enter into, a transaction involving all or a controlling portion of the
Company’s equity securities or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (whether by merger, consolidation,
business combination, tender or exchange offer, recapitalization, restructuring, sale, equity issuance or otherwise).


 






    22


     


    

 


7.10        
Board Designee. For so long as the Investors collectively beneficially own one hundred percent (100%) of the Shares
and five percent (5%) or more of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company, the Investors shall have the right to
designate one member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Investor Designee”) (and to fill the vacancy
of such member in the event of the resignation, death or removal of such member or failure of such member to be elected); provided
that such Investor Designee shall qualify as an “independent director” under the listing standards of Nasdaq (or such
other exchange on which the Company’s Common Stock may be listed) and shall be required to complete a questionnaire in the
same form as has been executed by all other directors for the Company. The initial Investor Designee designated by the Investors
shall be Mr. Kevin M. Rendino. Simultaneous with the Closing, the Company shall increase the size of its Board of Directors by
one, fill the resulting vacancy with the initial Investor Designee in accordance with the Company’s Bylaws and appoint such
Investor Designee as a Class I director. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Company’s Board of Directors, the Investor Designee
shall not be appointed to or otherwise gain membership on any of the committees of the Board of Directors. Thereafter, so long
as the Investor Designee is reasonably acceptable to the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (for the
avoidance of doubt, it being understood that Mr. Kevin M. Rendino is reasonably acceptable to such committee), the Company shall
(i) nominate and recommend in the Company’s proxy statement the Investor Designee as a Class I director of the Company’s
Board of Directors at each meeting of stockholders of the Company where the class of which the Investor Designee is a member is
up for election, which for the avoidance of doubt will be the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company, and (ii) in
the event that the Investor Designee shall resign or be removed as a director for any reason during the period that this Section 7.10
is in effect, fill the vacancy resulting thereby with an Investor Designee. The Company shall provide all rights and benefits of
indemnity to each Investor Designee as are provided to other outside directors of the Company. In the event the Company’s
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not in good faith approve a particular individual as the Investor Designee for
the slate of Class I directors or filling of a vacancy as a result of the process described in this Section 7.10, then
the Investors shall designate a different Investor Designee, whom shall be subject to the same review and approval process and
whose nomination will not be unreasonably withheld. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company hereby affirms that the initial Investor
Designee identified above satisfies such qualifications. At such time that the Investors no longer collectively beneficially own
all of the Shares and five percent (5%) or more of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company, or any Investor distributes
any of such shares to one or more of its investors, the Investors’ right to designate the Investor Designee shall immediately
terminate and the Investors shall cause the then-serving Investor Designee to promptly resign from the Company’s Board of
Directors. The Investors agree to give prompt notice to the Company if they cease to collectively beneficially own any of the Shares.


 






    23


     


    

 


7.11        
Registration of TCV Shares. In accordance with Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Investors hereby
consent to the inclusion of the TCV Shares in the initial Registration Statement to be prepared and filed by the Company thereby.


 


8.            Miscellaneous.


 


8.1           Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the
Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


 


8.2           Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by a party hereto without the prior written consent of
the Company or the Investors, as applicable, provided, however, that an Investor may assign its rights and delegate its duties
hereunder in whole or in part to an Affiliate or to a third party acquiring some or all of its Shares in a transaction complying
with applicable securities laws without the prior written consent of the Company or the other Investors. The provisions of this
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Company is a party to a merger, consolidation, share exchange or
similar business combination transaction in which the Common Stock is converted into the equity securities of another Person, from
and after the effective time of such transaction, such Person shall, by virtue of such transaction, be deemed to have assumed the
obligations of the Company hereunder, the term “Company” shall be deemed to refer to such Person and the term “Shares”
shall be deemed to refer to the securities received by the Investors in connection with such transaction. Nothing in this Agreement,
express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns
any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.


 


8.3           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original,
but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed
by each party and delivered to the other parties. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, or by
e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party
executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were
an original thereof.


 


8.4           Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to
be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.


 






    24


     


    

 


8.5          Notices. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be given in writing
and shall be deemed effectively given as hereinafter described (i) if given by personal delivery, then such notice shall be
deemed given upon such delivery, (ii) if given by facsimile (or like transmission), then such notice shall be deemed given
upon receipt of confirmation of complete transmittal, (iii) if given by electronic mail during normal business hours of the
recipient, and if not sent during normal business hours, then on the recipient’s next business day, (iv) if given by
mail, then such notice shall be deemed given upon the earlier of (A) receipt of such notice by the recipient or (B) three
days after such notice is deposited in first class mail, postage prepaid, and (v) if given by an internationally recognized
overnight air courier, then such notice shall be deemed given one Business Day after delivery to such carrier. All notices shall
be addressed to the party to be notified at the address as follows, or at such other address as such party may designate by ten
days’ advance written notice to the other party:

8.6           Expenses. Whether or not the Closing shall occur, all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby, including accounting and legal fees shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses,
except that, upon consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Company shall pay up to $50,000 of the reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Investors, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented
fees and expenses of counsel for the Investors.


 


8.7           Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement
may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent
of the Company and the Investors. Any such amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon
each holder of any securities purchased under this Agreement at the time outstanding (including securities into which such securities
have been converted or exchanged or for which such securities have been exercised) and each future holder of all such securities.


 


8.8           Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions
hereof but shall be interpreted as if it were written so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law,
and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
any other jurisdiction 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). To the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the
foregoing, the parties hereby waive any provision of law which renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any
respect.


 


8.9           Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Exhibits and the Disclosure Schedules, and the other Transaction
Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereof with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede
all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
thereof.


 






    26


     


    

 


8.10         Further Assurances. The parties shall execute and deliver all such further instruments and documents and take all
such other actions as may reasonably be required to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and to evidence the fulfillment
of the agreements herein contained.


 


8.11         Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made in and to be performed in that state,
without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof, to the extent such principles would require or permit the application
of the laws of another jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts
of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York
for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby. Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in
the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably
consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding and to the laying of venue in such court.
Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such
courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in
an inconvenient forum. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT
TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND REPRESENTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY
AS TO THIS WAIVER.


 






    27


     


    

 


8.12        
Indemnification. In consideration of each Investor’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and
acquiring the Shares 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 Investor and each other holder of the Shares and all of their
stockholders, 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 (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in the Transaction
Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement
or obligation of the Company contained in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated
hereby or thereby or (c) any cause of action, suit 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) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution,
delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated
hereby or thereby, other than claims for indemnification within the scope of Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement, (ii)
any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the
Shares, or (iii) the status of such Investor or holder of the Shares as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, except, in each case, with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities that resulted solely
from any Indemnitee’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud. 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 that is permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics
and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 8.12 shall be the same as those set forth in
Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement.
