Property Rights; or (iii) asserting that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is in material default with respect to any license
granting Intellectual Property Rights to the Company or its Subsidiaries other than, in each such case, if the assertion, challenge
or allegation in any such notice or claim were accurate or true, could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. The Company has no knowledge of any material infringement or improper use by any third party of any of the Intellectual
Property Rights, other than any such infringement or improper use as could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.


 


(o)          Ownership

property, and each of such leases is valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to laws of general application
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors and rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief
or other equitable remedies, and to limitations of public policy) and is in full force and effect, and (iii) good title to, or
valid leasehold interests in, all of its other properties and assets, free and clear of all Liens, except for Liens that could
not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(p)          Insurance.
Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and
risks and in such amounts as the Company reasonably believes are commercially reasonable for the businesses in which the Company
and its Subsidiaries are engaged. All such insurance is fully in force, except where the failure to be in full force could not
have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Investment Company Act. The Company is not, and immediately
after giving effect to the sale of the Shares in accordance with this Agreement and the application of the proceeds thereof will
not be required to be registered as, an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment
company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.


 


(q)          Taxes.
Except as could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Company and its Subsidiaries: (i)
have filed all Tax returns required to be filed within the applicable periods for such filings (with due regard to any extension);
(ii) have paid all Taxes and other governmental assessments required to be paid; and (iii) have reserved in the financial statements
of the Company included in the SEC Reports an amount adequate for the payment of all Taxes for periods subsequent to the periods
to which such returns, reports or declarations apply, except in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) with respect to matters contested
in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP. All stock transfer or other taxes
(other than income or similar Taxes) which are required to be paid in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby have
been fully paid or provided for by the Company, and all laws imposing such taxes will be or will have been complied with.


 


(r)           Off
Balance Sheet Arrangements. There is no transaction, arrangement or other relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
and an unconsolidated or other off balance sheet entity that is required to be disclosed by the Company in the SEC Reports and
is not so disclosed, except as could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(s)          Listing
and Maintenance Requirements. The Ordinary Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and
the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration
of the Ordinary Shares under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating
terminating such registration. The Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading
Market on which the Ordinary Shares are or have been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with
the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. To the Company’s knowledge,
it is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such
listing and maintenance requirements. The Ordinary Shares are currently eligible for electronic transfer through the Depository
Trust Company or another established clearing corporation and the Company is current in payment of the fees to the Depository Trust
Company (or such other established clearing corporation) in connection with such electronic transfer.


 


(t)           Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchasers’ Purchase of Shares. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers is acting solely
in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
thereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in
any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given
by any Purchaser or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions
contemplated thereby is merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the Shares. The Company further represents to each
Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been based solely
on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company and its representatives.

(u)          Material
Non-Public Information. To the extent the Company has provided any material non-public information to any Purchaser, it has
provided such information to every Purchaser.


 


3.2          Representations
and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser, for itself and for no other Purchaser, hereby represents and warrants as
of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Company as follows (unless as of a specific date therein, in which case they
shall be accurate as of such date):


 


(a)          Organization;
Authority. Such Purchaser is either an individual or an entity duly incorporated or formed, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with full right, corporate, partnership limited liability
company or similar power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents
and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of the Transaction
Documents and performance by the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar action, as applicable, on the part of
such Purchaser. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 3.1 of this Agreement,
each Transaction Document to which such Purchaser is a party has been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such
Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, except: (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii)
as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii)
insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law. Such Purchaser’s execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated
hereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any provision of such Purchaser’s certificate or articles of incorporation,
bylaws or other organizational or charter documents, or (ii) conflict with or result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation,
order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which such Purchaser is subject
(including federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of such Purchaser is bound or
affected, except with respect to clause (ii) such as could not have or reasonably be expected to result in an adverse effect on
the legality, validity or enforceability of any Transaction Document or the ability of such Purchaser to perform on a timely basis
its obligations under any Transaction Document.


 


(b)          Understandings
or Arrangements. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Shares as principal for its own account and has no direct or indirect arrangement
or understandings with any other persons to distribute or regarding the distribution of such Shares (this representation and warranty
not limiting such Purchaser’s right to sell the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement or otherwise in compliance
with applicable federal and state securities laws). Such Purchaser is acquiring the Shares hereunder in the ordinary course of
its business. The Purchaser is not identified on the specially designated nationals or other blocked person list or otherwise currently
subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department (“OFAC”),
and the Purchaser has not, directly or indirectly, used any funds, or loaned, contributed or otherwise made available such funds
to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person, in connection with any sales or operations in Cuba, Iran, Syria, Sudan,
Myanmar or any other country sanctioned by OFAC or for the purpose of financing the activities of any Person currently subject
to, or otherwise in violation of, any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC in the last five (5) fiscal years. The Purchaser’s
purchase of the Shares hereunder will not violate any money laundering or similar statutes of any Governmental Entity.


 




    	 	12	 



     


    

 


(c)          Purchaser
Status. Such Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.


 


(d)          Experience
of the Purchaser. Such Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and
experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment
in the Shares, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of
an investment in the Shares and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.


 


(e)          Access
to Information. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review the Transaction Documents (including
all exhibits and schedules thereto) and the Company’s filings with the Commission and has been afforded, (i) the opportunity
to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the
terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares and the merits and risks of investing in the Shares; (ii) access to information
about the Company and its financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient
to enable it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses
or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to
the investment.   


 


(f)           Certain
Transactions and Confidentiality. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not,
nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, directly or indirectly executed any
purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time that
such Purchaser first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other Person representing the Company setting
forth the material pricing terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to the execution hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio
managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment
decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth
above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision
to purchase the Shares covered by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement or to the Purchaser’s
representatives, including, without limitation, its officers, directors, partners, legal and other advisors, employees, agents
and Affiliates, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction
(including the existence and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained
herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to the identification of the availability
of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future.


 


(g)          Independent
Investment Decision. Such Purchaser has independently evaluated the merits of its decision to purchase the Shares pursuant
to the Transaction Documents. Such Purchaser understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented by or
on behalf of the Company to such Purchaser in connection with the purchase of the Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice.
Such Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate
in connection with its purchase of the Shares.


 




    	 	13	 



     


    

 


(h)          Brokers
and Finders. No Person will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any valid right, interest
or claim against or upon the Company or the Purchaser for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement,
arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of such Purchaser.


 


(i)          Ownership.
Such Purchaser’s signature page sets forth all securities of the Company held or beneficially owned by such Purchaser as
of the date hereof, including without limitation, Ordinary Shares and Ordinary Share Equivalents. Such Purchaser does not hold
or beneficially own any other securities of the Company, except as indicated on the signature page hereto.


 


(j)          Group.
Such Purchaser represents that it is not a “group” within the meaning of Section 13d-5 under the Exchange Act with
any holder or beneficial owner of the Company’s securities and in calculating and reporting such Purchaser’s beneficial
ownership, such Purchaser is not required under the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act to include the beneficial
ownership of the securities of the Company held by another holder or beneficial owner of the Company’s securities.


 


The Company acknowledges
and agrees that the representations contained in this Section 3.2 shall not modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right
to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations and warranties
contained in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this
Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.1          Integration.
The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined
in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares for purposes of the rules and
regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require shareholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction
unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction. 


 


4.2          Securities

of Ordinary Shares. Prior to or concurrently with the Closing, the Company shall apply to list or quote all of the Shares on
the Trading Market on which it is currently listed and promptly secure the listing of all of the Shares on such Trading Market.
The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Ordinary Shares traded on any other Trading Market, it will then
include in such application all of the Shares, and will take such other action as is necessary to cause all of the Shares to be
listed or quoted on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible. 


 


4.5          Certain
Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither
it nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any purchases or sales, including
Short Sales of any of the Company’s securities during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending
at such time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release
as described in Section 4.2.  Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other
Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company
pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.2, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence
and terms of this transaction and the information included in the Transaction Documents. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby
that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.2, (ii) no Purchaser
shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with applicable
securities laws from and after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant
to the initial press release as described in Section 4.2 and (iii) no Purchaser shall have any duty of confidentiality or duty
not to trade in the securities of the Company to the Company or its Subsidiaries after the issuance of the initial press release
as described in Section 4.2.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment
vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers
have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s
assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that
made the investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this Agreement.

in the case of an amendment, by the Company and Purchasers which purchased at least a majority in interest of the Shares based
on the initial Subscription Amounts hereunder or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived
provision is sought, provided that if any amendment, modification or waiver disproportionately and adversely impacts a Purchaser
(or group of Purchasers), the consent of such disproportionately impacted Purchaser (or group of Purchasers) shall also be required.
No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing
waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof,
nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.
Any proposed amendment or waiver that disproportionately, materially and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any Purchaser

and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted
assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of

    	 	16	 



     


    

 


5.9          Governing
Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall
be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the
principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement
and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party
hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced
exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any
dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect
to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Action
or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Action or Proceeding
is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and
consents to process being served in any such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or
overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and
agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall
be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If any party shall commence an Action
or Proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, the prevailing party in such Action or Proceeding shall
be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the
investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Action or Proceeding.


 


5.10        Survival.
The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Shares until the expiration
of the statute of limitations therefor. The covenants set forth in this Agreement shall survive in accordance with their terms
and until fully performed at which time they shall terminate.


 


5.11        Execution.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same
agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being
understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. 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 or “.pdf”
signature page were an original thereof.


 


5.12        Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal,
void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full
force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially
reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated
by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that
they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.


 


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


 




    	 	17	 



     


    

 


5.14        Replacement
of Shares. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall
issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu
of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also
pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares.


 


5.15        Remedies.
Any and all remedies set forth in this Agreement: (i) shall be in addition to any and all other remedies the Purchasers or the
Company may have at law or in equity; (ii) shall be cumulative; and (iii) may be pursued successively or concurrently as the Purchasers
and the Company may elect. The exercise of any remedy by the Purchasers or the Company shall not be deemed an election of remedies
or preclude the Purchasers, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, from exercising any other remedy in the future.
No Purchaser shall be entitled to damages, in the aggregate, from the Company that are in excess of the respective portion of the
Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser.


 


5.16        Payment
Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document
or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or
exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from,
disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person
under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action),
then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived
and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.


 


5.17        Independent
Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several
and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance
or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any
other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the
Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers
are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without limitation, the
rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser
to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate
legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision
contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between
the Company and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.


 


5.18        Saturdays,
Sundays, Holidays, etc.         If
the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be
a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.


 


5.19        Construction.
The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction
Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting
