WHEREAS,
in order to induce the Stockholders to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreement, the Company wishes
to provide the Stockholders with the registration rights set forth herein.

THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual promises set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:


 


Article I



REGISTRATION


 


Section 1.1Registration
Statements. As soon as reasonably practicable following the closing of the purchase and sale of Company Class B Common Stock
contemplated by the Subscription Agreements (the “Subscription Agreement Closing Date”), the Company shall
prepare and file with the SEC the Registration Statement covering the resale of the Registrable Securities in an amount equal
to no less than the number of shares of Company Class B Common Stock issued to the Stockholders pursuant to the Subscription Agreements
on the Subscription Agreement Closing Date. The Company will use commercially reasonable best efforts to file the Registration Statement with the
SEC as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event no later than forty-five (45) days following the date hereof.

Period. For not more than twenty (20) consecutive trading days or for a total of not more than sixty (60) trading days in
any twelve (12) month period, the Company may delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company,
by terminating or suspending effectiveness of any registration contemplated by this Section containing such information, the disclosure
of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company (a “Suspension
Period”); provided, that the Company shall promptly (i) notify each Stockholder in writing of the existence of (but
in no event, without the prior written consent of each Stockholder, shall the Company disclose to any Stockholder any of the facts
or circumstances regarding) material non-public information giving rise to a Suspension Period, and (ii) if the Registration Statement
has already been filed and declared effective, advise each Stockholder in writing to cease all sales under the Registration Statement
until the end of the Suspension Period.


 



     


     


    

 


Article II



COMPANY OBLIGATIONS


 


Section 2.1Company
Obligations. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities
in accordance with the terms hereof, and pursuant thereto the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:


 


(a) use

(c) furnish
to each Stockholder and their legal counsel (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the SEC,
or received by the Company (but not later than four (4) business days after the filing date, receipt date or sending date, as
the case may be), a reasonable number of copies of any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, each preliminary prospectus
and Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each letter written by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or

and such other documents as such Stockholder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
Securities owned by such Stockholder;


 


(d) immediately

Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing
and at the request of any Stockholder, promptly prepare and furnish to such Stockholder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement
to or an amendment of such Prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable

    2


     


    

 


(e) with
a view to making available to the Stockholder the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and other rules and
regulations of the SEC that may at any time permit a Stockholder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration,
the Company covenants that it will (i) file in a timely manner all reports and other documents required, if any, to be filed by
it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and (ii) make available information necessary to comply with Rule 144, if available
with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, at all times, all to the extent required from
time to time to enable a Stockholder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided
by (x) Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (if available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities), as
such rules may be amended from time to time or (y) any other rules or regulations now existing or hereafter adopted by the SEC.
Upon the reasonable request of a Stockholder, the Company will deliver to such Stockholder a written statement as to whether it
has complied with such information;


 


(f) use
commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness and, if such order
is issued, obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment;


 


(g) cause all Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement
to be listed on each securities exchange, interdealer quotation system or other market on which the Company Class B Common Stock
is then listed;

the case of certificated Registrable Securities, cooperate with the Stockholder to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery
of certificates representing Registrable Securities sold pursuant to a Registration Statement;


 


(i) provide
and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities that are Company Class B Common
Stock from and after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement; and


 


(j) otherwise
use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC under the Securities Act and
the Exchange Act, and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to facilitate the registration of the Registrable
Securities hereunder.

OBLIGATIONS OF STOCKHOLDERS


 


Section 3.1Each
Stockholder hereby severally and not jointly represents and warrants with the Company that as of the date hereof:


 


(a)
Company Information. Such Stockholder shall furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable
Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably
required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration
as the Company may reasonably request.


 






    3


     


    

 


(b)
Cooperation. Such Stockholder, by its acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as
reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement.


 


(c)

rendering a Registration Statement no longer effective, each Stockholder will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities, until the supplemented or amended prospectus
filed with the SEC is declared effective.


 


Article IV



INDEMNIFICATION


 


Section 4.1Indemnification
by the Company. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Stockholder and their respective officers, directors, members,
employees and agents, successors and assigns, and each other person, if any, who controls such Stockholder within the meaning
of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such seller, officer, director,
member, or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or final Prospectus contained therein,
or any amendment or supplement thereof; (ii) any blue sky application or based upon written information furnished by the Company
filed in any state or other jurisdiction in order to qualify any or all of the Registrable Securities under the securities laws
thereof; (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading; or (iv) any violation by the Company or its agents of any rule or regulation promulgated
under the Securities Act or Exchange Act applicable to the Company or its agents and relating to action or inaction required of
the Company in connection with such registration; and will advance to or reimburse such Stockholder, and each such officer, director
or member and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating
or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be
liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability directly arises out of or is based
solely upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information
furnished by such Stockholder or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such Registration Statement or
Prospectus.


 






    4


     


    

 


Section 4.2Indemnification
by the Stockholders. In connection with any registration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, each Stockholder will furnish
to the Company in writing such information as the Company reasonably requests concerning such Stockholder or the proposed manner
of distribution for use in connection with any Registration Statement or Prospectus and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless,
severally and not jointly, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, stockholders
and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expense (including reasonable attorney fees) resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission of a material
fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or
omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Stockholder to the Company specifically for inclusion in
such Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto and that such information was substantially relied
upon by the Company in preparation of the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. In no event
shall the indemnification obligation of a holder of Registrable Securities be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the
proceeds (net of all expenses paid by such holder and the amount of any damages such holder has otherwise been required to pay
by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission) received by it upon the sale of the Registrable
Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation.


 


Section 4.3Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying
party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense
of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any Person entitled to indemnification
hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses,
or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory
to such Person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such Person, a conflict of interest exists between such Person and the
indemnifying party with respect to such claims or there are additional defenses available to such Person (in which case, if the
Person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying
party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Person); and provided,
further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying
party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the
indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in
connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys
at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent
to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the
claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release of such indemnified party from all liability in respect of such claim
or litigation.


 


Section 4.4Contribution.
If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraphs (a) and (b) is unavailable to an indemnified party
or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities
Act shall be entitled to contribution from any person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the contribution
obligation of a holder of Registrable Securities be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses
paid by such holder and the amount of any damages such holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission) received by it upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such
contribution obligation.
