		2.	DEMAND
REGISTRATION RIGHTS



 


2.1              
Demand Rights. At any time, and from time to time, the Investor may deliver to the Company a written notice
(a “Demand Registration Notice”) informing the Company of its desire to have some or all of its Registrable
Shares registered for sale. As soon as reasonably practicable after receiving the Demand Registration Notice, but in no event more
than sixty (60) calendar days following receipt of such notice, the Company shall file a registration statement and related prospectus
that complies as to form and substance in all material respects with applicable SEC rules providing for the sale by the Investor
of all of the Registrable Shares requested to be registered by the Investor (the “Demand Registration Statement”),
and agrees (subject to Sections 4 and 5.2) to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Demand Registration
Statement to be declared effective by the SEC upon, or as soon as practicable following, the filing thereof. Subject to Section
4, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Demand Registration Statement continuously effective
(including the preparation and filing of any amendments and supplements necessary for that purpose) until the date on which the
Investor consummates the sale of all of the Registrable Shares registered for resale under the Demand Registration Statement or
such earlier date on which all Registrable Shares held by the Investor are freely tradeable in a single transaction pursuant to
Rule 144 (or any successor provision).


 


2.2              
Underwritten Offering. If the Investor intends to distribute the Registrable Shares covered by its Demand
Registration Notice by means of an underwriting, it shall so advise the Company as a part of its Demand Registration Notice. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 2, if an underwriter advises the Company that, in the opinion of the underwriter, the
distribution of all of the Registrable Shares requested to be registered would materially and adversely affect the distribution
of all of the securities to be underwritten, then (a) the Company shall deliver to the Investor a copy of the underwriter’s
opinion, which shall be in writing and state the reasons for its opinion, and (b) the number of Registrable Shares that may be
included in such registration shall be allocated: (i) first, to the Investor; and (ii) second, to the other persons proposing to
register securities in such registration, if any; provided, however, that the number of Registrable Shares to be
included in the underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are entirely excluded from the underwriting. Any
Registrable Shares excluded or withdrawn from the underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration.


 


2.3              
Selection of Underwriter. The Investor shall have the right to select the underwriter or underwriters to administer
any underwritten demand registration offering or underwritten takedown under a Demand Registration Statement; provided that
the underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company.


 


		3.	INCIDENTAL OR “PIGGY-BACK” REGISTRATION







    	 	3	 



     


    

3.1              
Piggy-Back Rights. If the Company proposes to
file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of its Common Stock, whether to be sold by the
Company or by one or more selling securityholders, other than (a) a Demand Registration Statement (in which case the ability
of an Investor to participate in the Demand Registration Statement shall be governed by Section  2.1) or (b) a
registration statement (i) on Form S-8 or any successor form to Form S-8 or in connection with any employee or director welfare,
benefit or compensation plan, (ii) in connection with an exchange offer or an offering of securities exclusively to existing
securityholders of the Company or its subsidiaries or (iii) relating to a transaction pursuant to Rule 145 under the Securities
Act, the Company shall give written notice of the proposed registration to the Investor at least twenty (20) calendar days prior
to the filing of the Registration Statement. The Investor shall have the right to request that all or any portion of its Registrable
Shares be included in the Registration Statement by giving written notice to the Company within ten (10) calendar days after receipt
of the foregoing notice by the Company. Subject to the provisions of Sections  3.1, 3.2 and 5.2, the
Company will include all such Registrable Shares requested to be included by the Investor in the Piggyback Registration Statement.
For purposes of this Agreement, any Registration Statement of the Company in which Registrable Shares are included pursuant to
this Section  3.1 shall be referred to as a “Piggyback Registration Statement.”


 


3.2              
Withdrawal of Exercise of Rights. If, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities
and prior to the effective date of the Piggyback Registration Statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company
or any other holder of securities that initiated such registration (each, an “Initiating Investor”) determines
for any reason not to proceed with the proposed registration, the Company may at its election (or the election of the Initiating
Investor(s), as applicable) give written notice of the determination to the Investor and thereupon shall be relieved of its obligation
to register any Registrable Shares in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses
incurred in connection therewith).


 


3.3              
Underwritten Offering. If a registration pursuant to this Section 3 involves an underwritten offering and
the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the number of securities which the Company and the
holders of the Registrable Shares and any other persons intend to include in the registration exceeds the largest number of securities
that can be sold in the offering without having an adverse effect on the offering (including the price at which the securities
can be sold), then the Company shall include in the registration the maximum number of securities as follows: (a) first, all
of the securities the Company proposes to sell for its own account, if any; provided that the registration of the securities
was initiated by the Company with respect to securities intended to be registered for sale for its own account; (b) second,
the number of Registrable Shares requested to be included in the registration by the Investor which, in the opinion of the managing
underwriter, can be sold without having the adverse effect described above; and (c) third, the securities requested to be included
therein by holders of Common Stock other than holders of Registrable Securities, allocated among such holders in such manner as
they may agree.


 


3.4              
Selection of Underwriter. Except to the extent Section 2.3 applies, Registrable Shares proposed to be registered
and sold under this Section 3 pursuant to an underwritten offering for the account of the Investor holding Registrable
Shares shall be sold to prospective underwriters selected by the Company and on the terms and subject to the conditions of one
or more underwriting agreements negotiated by the Company and the Investor.


 


		4.	Suspension of OfferingS







    	 	4	 



     


    

Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section  2 or 3, the Company shall be entitled to postpone the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement, and from time to time to require the Investor not to sell under the Registration Statement or to suspend the effectiveness
thereof, if the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the Company or its subsidiaries is pending or another event has
occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event the Company reasonably believes would require additional disclosure by the Company
in the Registration Statement of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential
and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the Company’s reasonable determination,
to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (each such circumstance, a “Suspension
Event”); provided, however, that the Company may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more
than two (2) occasions or for more than thirty (30) consecutive calendar days, or more than one hundred twenty (120) total calendar
days, during any twelve (12) month period. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company of the happening of any Suspension
Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or, if as a result of a Suspension Event, the Registration
Statement or related Prospectus contains any 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the
case of the Prospectus) not misleading, the Investor agrees that it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Registrable
Shares under the Registration Statement until the Investor receives copies of a supplemental or amended Prospectus (which the Company
agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective
amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Company that it may resume such offers and sales. If so directed
by the Company, the Investor will deliver to the Company or, in the Investor’s sole discretion, destroy all copies of the
Prospectus covering the Registrable Shares in the Investor’s possession.


 


		5.	Registration Procedures



 


5.1              
Obligations of the Company. When the Company
is required to effect the registration of Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall:


 


(a)               
use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Shares by the time the applicable
Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC under all applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws of
such jurisdictions as the Investor may reasonably request in writing, to keep each such registration or qualification effective
during the period such Registration Statement is required to be kept effective pursuant to this Agreement, and to do any other
similar acts and things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the Investor to consummate the disposition of the
Registrable Shares owned by the Investor in each such jurisdiction; provided, however, that the Company shall not
be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction or to register as a broker or dealer in such jurisdiction
where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Agreement, (ii) take any action that would cause it to become
subject to any taxation in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be subject to such taxation or (iii) take any action
that would subject it to the general service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not then subject;


 


(b)              
prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements as to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus
used in connection therewith as may be necessary to (i) keep such Registration Statement effective, and (ii) comply with
the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of the Registrable Shares covered by such Registration Statement,
in each case for such time as is contemplated in the applicable provisions above;






    	 	5	 



     


    

(c)               
promptly furnish, without charge, to the Investor the number of copies of the Registration Statement, each amendment
and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), and the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including
each preliminary Prospectus) in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, the documents incorporated by reference
in such Registration Statement or Prospectus and such other documents as the Investor may reasonably request to facilitate the
public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Shares owned by the Investor;


 


(d)              
promptly notify the Investor (i) when the Registration Statement, any pre-effective amendment, the Prospectus
or any prospectus supplement related thereto or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed, and,
with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (ii) of
the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation or threat
of any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) of any delisting or pending delisting of the Common Stock by any national securities
exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted, and (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification
with respect to the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Shares for sale under the securities or “blue sky”
laws of any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose;


 


(e)               
use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent
the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, and, if any such order suspending the effectiveness
of a Registration Statement is issued, shall promptly use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest possible moment;


 


(f)                
until the expiration of the period during which the Company is required to maintain the effectiveness of the
applicable Registration Statement as set forth in the applicable sections hereof, promptly notify the Investor: (i) of the
existence of any fact of which the Company is aware or the happening of any event that has resulted, or could reasonably be expected
to result, in (x) the Registration Statement, as is then in effect, containing an untrue statement of a material fact or omitting
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make any statements therein not misleading, or (y) the
Prospectus included in such Registration Statement containing an untrue statement of a material fact or omitting to state a material
fact necessary to make any statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and
(ii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would
be appropriate or that there exist circumstances not yet disclosed to the public which make further sales under such Registration
Statement inadvisable pending such disclosure and post-effective amendment;


 


(g)               
if any event or occurrence giving rise to an obligation of the Company to notify the Investor pursuant to Section 5.1(f)
takes place, subject to Section 4, the Company shall prepare and, to the extent the exemption from prospectus delivery
requirements in Rule 172 under the Securities Act is not available, furnish to the Investor a reasonable number of copies of a
supplement or post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein
by reference or file any other required document, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the supplement or amendment
declared effective, if required, as soon as practicable following the filing thereof, so that (i) such Registration Statement
shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading, and (ii) as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Shares
being sold thereunder, such Prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;






    	 	6	 



     


    

(h)              
use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such Registrable Shares to be listed or quoted on the national
securities exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted, if the listing or quotation of the Registrable
Shares is then permitted under the rules of such national securities exchange or market;


 


(i)                
if requested by any Investor participating in an offering of Registrable Shares, as soon as practicable after
such request, but in no event later than fifteen (15) calendar days after such request, incorporate in a prospectus supplement
or post-effective amendment such information concerning the Investor or the intended method of distribution as the Investor
reasonably requests to be included therein and is reasonably necessary to permit the sale of the Registrable Shares pursuant to
the Registration Statement, including information with respect to the number of Registrable Shares being sold, the purchase price
being paid therefor and any other material terms of the offering of the Registrable Shares to be sold in such offering; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be obligated to include in any such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment
any requested information that is not required by the rules of the SEC and is unreasonable in scope compared with the Company’s
most recent prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with a primary or secondary offering of equity securities by
the Company;


 


(j)                
in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement, the Company will give the Investor
and its counsel (i) the opportunity to review and provide comments on such Registration Statement, each Prospectus included
therein or filed with the SEC and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto (other than amendments or supplements that do not
make any material change in the information related to the Company); provided that the Company shall not file any such Registration
Statement including Registrable Shares or an amendment thereto or any related Prospectus or any supplement thereto to which the
Investor or the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, shall reasonably object in writing), and (ii) such access to
its books and records and such opportunities to discuss the business of the Company and its subsidiaries with its officers, its
counsel and the independent public accountants who have certified its financial statements as shall be necessary, in the opinion
of the Investor’s and underwriters’ respective counsel, to conduct a reasonable due diligence investigation within
the meaning of the Securities Act;

date of the first Registration Statement filed hereunder;


 


(l)                
cooperate with the Investor to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates for the Registrable
Shares to be offered pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement and enable such certificates for the Registrable Shares
to be in such denominations or amounts as the case may be, as the Investor may reasonably request and, within three (3) Business
Days after a Registration Statement that includes Registrable Shares is ordered effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver,
or shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for the Registrable Shares (with copies
to the Investor) an appropriate instruction and opinion of such counsel;


 


(m)            
enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company,
the Investor and the managing underwriter or underwriters of the public offering of Registrable Shares, if the offering is to be
underwritten, in whole or in part, provided that the Investor may, at its option, require that any or all of the conditions
precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the obligations
of the Investor. The Investor shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreement with the Company
or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding the Investor and its intended method of distribution
and any other representation or warranty required by law or reasonably requested by the underwriters. The Company shall cooperate
and participate in the marketing of Registrable Shares, including participating in customary “roadshow” presentations,

if such shares are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the Registration Statement with respect to such shares
becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration,
in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters, if any, to the Investor, and (ii) a letter dated such date,
from the independent certified public accountants of the Company who have certified the Company’s financial statements included
in the Registration Statement, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters
in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Investor;


 


(o)               
make available to the Investor, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period
of at least twelve (12) months, but not more than eighteen (18) months, beginning with the first month of the first fiscal quarter
after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section
11(a) of the Securities Act, including Rule 158 promulgated thereunder; and


 


(p)              
take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investor pursuant to
the applicable Registration Statement.


 


5.2              
Obligations of the Investor. In connection with any Registration Statement utilized by the Company to
satisfy the provisions of this Agreement, the Investor agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation
of the Registration Statement, and the Investor agrees that such cooperation shall include (a) responding within fifteen (15)
calendar days to any written request by the Company to provide or verify information regarding the Investor or the Investor’s
Registrable Shares (including the proposed manner of sale) that may be required to be included in any Registration Statement pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the SEC, and (b) providing in a timely manner information regarding the proposed distribution
by the Investor of the Registrable Shares and any other information as may be requested by the Company from time to time in connection
with the preparation of and for inclusion in any Registration Statement and related Prospectus.


 


5.3              
Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Investor may participate in any underwritten registration
hereunder unless the Investor (a) agrees to sell the Investor’s Registrable Shares on the basis provided in the applicable
underwriting arrangements (that shall include a customary form of underwriting agreement, which will provide that the representations
and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of the underwriters shall also be
made to and for the benefit of the Investor), and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents in customary form as reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements;
provided, however, that, in the case of each of clause (a) and (b), if the provisions of the underwriting arrangements,
or the terms or provisions of the questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements or other documents,
are less favorable in any respect to an Investor than to any other person or entity that is party to the underwriting arrangements
as a selling stockholder, then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the parties to the underwriting arrangements
to amend the arrangements so that the Investor receives the benefit of any provisions thereof that are more favorable to such other
person or entity . If any Investor does not approve of the terms of the underwriting arrangements, the Investor may elect to withdraw
from the offering by providing written notice to the Company and the underwriter(s).






    	 	8

Offers and Sales. All offers and sales by an Investor under any Registration Statement shall be completed
within the period during which the Registration Statement is required to remain effective pursuant to the applicable provision
above and not the subject of any stop order, injunction or other order of the SEC. Upon expiration of that period, no Investor
will offer or sell the Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement. If directed in writing by the Company, the Investor
will return or, in the Investor’s sole discretion, destroy all undistributed copies of the applicable Prospectus in its possession
upon the expiration of the period.

Section 6.1(a), (b) or (c) above;



    	 	9	 



     


    




provided, however, that the
indemnity provided pursuant to this Section 6 does not apply to any Investor with respect to any loss, liability, claim,
damage, judgment or expense to the extent arising out of (i) any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement
or omission made in reliance upon and in strict conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly
for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or
(ii) the Investor’s failure to deliver an amended or supplemental Prospectus furnished to the Investor by the Company,
if required by law to have been delivered, if such loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment or expense would not have arisen had
such delivery occurred.


 


6.2              
Indemnification by Investor. The Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each of its directors
and officers (including each director and officer of the Company who signed a Registration Statement), and each person, if any,
who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, as
follows:


 


(a)               
against all loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment and expense whatsoever, as incurred (including reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel), arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) pursuant to which the Registrable Shares of the Investor
were registered under the Securities Act, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged
omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
or arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Issuer Free
Writing Prospectus (within the meaning of Rule 433 under the Securities Act), the General Disclosure Package, or any Prospectus
(or any amendment or supplement thereto), including all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged
omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading;


 


(b)              
against all loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment and expense whatsoever, as incurred (including reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel), and to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or investigation
or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue
statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with the written consent
of the Investor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); and


 


(c)               
against all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel), reasonably
incurred in investigating, preparing, defending against or participating in (as a witness or otherwise) against any litigation,
arbitration, action, or investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, in each case whether
or not a party, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, any such alleged untrue statement or
omission or any such violation or alleged violation, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under Section 6.2(a)
or (b) above;


 


provided, however, that the
Investor shall only be liable under the indemnity provided pursuant to Section 6.2 with respect to any loss, liability,
claim, damage, judgment or expense to the extent arising out of (i) any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement
or omission made in reliance upon and in strict conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly
for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or
(ii) the Investor’s failure to deliver an amended or supplemental Prospectus furnished to the Investor by the Company,
if required by law to have been delivered, if such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense would not have arisen had such delivery
occurred. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, an Investor and any of its Permitted Transferees shall not be
required to indemnify the Company, its directors, officers or control persons for any amount in excess of the amount of the aggregate
net cash proceeds received by the Investor or its Permitted Transferee, as the case may be, from sales of the Registrable Shares
of the Investor (or Permitted Transferee) under the Registration Statement that is the subject of the indemnification claim.



    	 	10	 



     


    




6.3              
Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. An indemnified party hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”)
shall give reasonably prompt notice to the indemnifying party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any action or proceeding
commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party (a) shall
not relieve it from any liability which it may have under the indemnity provisions of Section 6.1 or 6.2 unless
and only to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and the lack of notice by the Indemnified Party results in the
forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of substantial rights and defenses, and (b) shall not, in any event, relieve the Indemnifying
Party from any obligations to any Indemnified Party other than the indemnification obligation provided under Section 6.1
or 6.2 above. If the Indemnifying Party so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of such notice, the Indemnifying
Party may assume the defense of such action or proceeding at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense with counsel chosen by
the Indemnifying Party and approved by the Indemnified Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided,
however, that the Indemnifying Party will not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to
any such action or proceeding without the written consent of the Indemnified Party unless such settlement, compromise or consent
secures the unconditional release of the Indemnified Party; and provided further that, if the Indemnified Party reasonably
determines that a conflict of interest exists where it is advisable for the Indemnified Party to be represented by separate counsel
or that, upon advice of counsel, there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition
to those available to the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume such defense and the
Indemnified Party shall be entitled to separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s expense. If the Indemnifying Party is
not entitled to assume the defense of such action or proceeding as a result of the second proviso to the preceding sentence, the
Indemnifying Party’s counsel shall be entitled to conduct the Indemnifying Party’s defense and counsel for the Indemnified
Party shall be entitled to conduct the defense of the Indemnified Party, it being understood that both such counsel will cooperate
with each other to conduct the defense of such action or proceeding as efficiently as possible. If the Indemnifying Party is not
so entitled to assume the defense of such action or does not assume such defense, after having received the notice referred to
in the first sentence of this paragraph, the Indemnifying Party will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified
Party. In such event, however, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any settlement effected without the written consent
of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If an Indemnifying Party is entitled to
assume, and assumes, the defense of such action or proceeding in accordance with this paragraph, the Indemnifying Party shall not
be liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified Party incurred thereafter in connection with such action or
proceeding.

6.4              
Contribution.


 


(a)               
To provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement in Sections
6.1 through 6.3 is for any reason held to be unenforceable
by the Indemnified Party although applicable in accordance with its terms, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall
contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnity agreement
incurred by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
of the Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnifying Party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or
omissions that resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party
and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the action in question, including any untrue
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates
to information supplied by, the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action.


 


(b)              
The parties agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.4
were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.4, an
Investor shall not be required to contribute any amount (together with the amount of any indemnification payments made by the Investor
pursuant to Section 6.2) in excess of the amount of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by the Investor from sales
of the Registrable Shares of the Investor under the Registration Statement that is the subject of the indemnification claim.


 


(c)               
Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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 who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
For purposes of this Section 6.4, each person, if any, who controls an Investor within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and any of their partners, members, officers, directors, trustees, employees
or representatives, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Investor, and each director of the Company, each officer
of the Company who signed a Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.


 


		7.	EXPENSES



 


The Company will pay
all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Shares pursuant to Section  2 or 3.
The Investor shall be responsible for the payment of all brokerage and sales commissions, fees and disbursements of the Investor’s
counsel that are not Registration Expenses, accountants and other advisors, and any transfer taxes relating to the sale or disposition
of the Registrable Shares by the Investor pursuant to any Registration Statement or otherwise.


 


		8.	RULE 144 REPORTING



 


With a view to making
available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit an Investor
to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration statement, if the Common Stock
of the Company is registered under the Exchange Act, the Company agrees to:






    	 	12	 



     


    

(a)               
file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act; and


 


(b)              
for so long as the Investor owns any Registrable Shares, furnish to any Investor upon request (i) a written
statement from the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act, or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to a registration statement, (ii) a copy
of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company and (iii) such
other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Investor of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the
selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to a registration statement.


 


		9.	MISCELLANEOUS



 


9.1              
Waivers. No waiver by a party shall be effective
unless made in a written instrument duly executed by the party against whom the waiver is sought to be enforced, and only to the
extent set forth in that instrument. Neither the waiver by any of the parties of a breach or a default under any of the provisions
of this Agreement, nor the failure of any of the parties, on one or more occasions, to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement
or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder shall thereafter be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or default of
a similar nature, or as a waiver of any such provisions, rights or privileges hereunder.


 


9.2              
Notices. Notices to the Company and to the Investor
shall be sent to their respective addresses as set forth in the Warrant Agreement. The Company or any Investor may require notices
to be sent to a different address by giving notice to the other parties in accordance with this Section  9.2. Any notice
or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given upon receipt
if and when delivered personally, sent by facsimile transmission (the confirmation being deemed conclusive evidence of delivery)
or by overnight courier service or three calendar days after being sent by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return
receipt requested), to such parties at such address.


 


9.3              
Public Announcements and Other Disclosure. No
Investor shall make any press release, public announcement or other disclosure with respect to this Agreement without obtaining
the prior written consent of the Company, except as may be required by law or the rules or regulations of any securities exchange
or national market system upon which the securities of the Investor are listed or quoted; provided that, in the case of
any disclosure required by law, rule or regulation, the Investor making the disclosure shall use all reasonable efforts to consult
with the Company prior to making the disclosure.


 


9.4              
Headings and Interpretation. All section and
subsection headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not intended to qualify the meaning, construction
or scope of any of the provisions hereof. The Investor hereby disclaims any defense or assertion in any litigation or arbitration
that any ambiguity herein should be construed against the drafter.


 


9.5              
Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement,
together with the Purchase Agreement and any related exhibits and schedules hereto or thereto, constitute the sole and entire agreement
of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
of any conflict between the terms and provisions of this Agreement and those of the Purchase Agreement, the terms and conditions
of this Agreement shall control. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no amendment, modification or discharge
of this Agreement shall be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed by the Company and the Investor.

9.6              
Assignment; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement
and the rights granted hereunder may not be assigned by any Investor without the written consent of the Company; provided,
however, that the rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Shares pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned
by an Investor to a Permitted Transferee of the Investor’s Registrable Shares; and provided further that in each case
the transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. This Agreement
shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto, their successors, heirs, legatees, devisees, permitted
assigns, legal representatives, executors and administrators, except as otherwise provided herein.


 


9.7              
Saving Clause. If any provision of this Agreement,
or the application of such provision to any person or circumstance, is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application
of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid, shall not be affected thereby. If
the operation of any provision of this Agreement would contravene the provisions of any applicable law, such provision shall be
void and ineffectual. In the event that applicable law is subsequently amended or interpreted in such a way to make any provision
of this Agreement that was formerly invalid valid, such provision shall be considered to be valid from the effective date of such
interpretation or amendment.


 


9.8              
Counterparts; Exchanges. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall
constitute an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. The execution and exchange of a fully
executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by facsimile, electronic mail or another form of electronic signature or transmission
(including .pdf) shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms of this Agreement.


 


9.9              
Representations and Warranties. Each of the parties
hereto, as to itself only, represents and warrants that this Agreement has been duly authorized and executed by it and that all
necessary corporate actions have been taken by it in order for this Agreement to be enforceable against it under all applicable

shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without application of
the conflict of laws principles thereof.

Service of Process and Venue. Each of the parties
hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District
of New York, the Supreme Court of the State of New York and the federal courts of the United States of America located in the State
of New York in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal
jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to
this Agreement in any court other than any court of the United States located in the State of New York and (d) consents to service
being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 9.2. Each of the parties agrees that service of any process,

9.12          
Specific Performance. The parties agree that
irreparable damage would occur in the event the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof,
and that the Investor and the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy
at law or equity.


 


9.13          
No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly set forth in Section 6, it
is the explicit intention of the parties that no person other than the parties hereto is or shall be entitled to bring any action
