SEC Documents”). As of their respective SEC filing dates, the Company SEC Documents complied in all material respects with
the requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and/or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (and the regulations promulgated thereunder),
as the case may be, applicable to such Company SEC Documents, and none of the Company SEC Documents as of such respective dates (or,
if amended prior to the date of this Agreement, the date of the filing of such amendment, with respect to the disclosures that are amended)
contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.


 


(b)              
The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including all related notes or schedules) included
or incorporated by reference in the Company SEC Documents complied as to form, as of their respective dates of filing with the SEC, in

Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods shown (subject,
in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments).


 






    13 


     


    

 


(c)

and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. There are no “significant deficiencies” or “material

controls over, and procedures relating to, financial reporting which would reasonably be expected to adversely affect in any material
respect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data, in each case which has not been subsequently
remediated. Since January 1, 2019, there has not been any Fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who have a significant role in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
As of the date of this Agreement, to the Knowledge of the Company, there is no reason that its outside auditors and its chief executive

confidential in accordance with the provisions hereof unless such Affiliate or Representative has entered into a confidentiality agreement
enforceable by the Company (and in this regard, the parties acknowledge that the Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated
as of January 5, 2022, by and between the Company and Gallatin Point Capital LLC (the “Confidentiality Agreement”)
remains in full force and effect in accordance with its terms)), and (ii) in the event that an Investor Party, any of its Affiliates
or any of their respective Representatives are requested or required by applicable Law, regulation, Judgment, stock exchange rule or

in advance of any such disclosure so that the Company will have a reasonable opportunity to timely seek to limit, condition or quash
such disclosure at the Company’s sole cost and expense.

(b)              
The Investor Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) any conversion of the Class A Preferred Shares that would cause the Investor

submitting any applicable filings to any applicable department of insurance or other insurance regulatory body, which consent shall not

(ii)

(a)              
As promptly as practical following the date of receipt of any Required Regulatory Approvals, the Company will increase the size
of the Board, if necessary, in order to appoint Matthew Botein (the “Original Investor Designee”) to the Board to

and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified.


 


(b)              
Upon the occurrence of a Director Termination Event or a Director Disqualification Event, at the request of the Board, the Investor
Director shall immediately resign, and the Investor Parties shall cause such Investor Director immediately to resign from the Board and
any committee thereof effective as of the date of such Board request, and, in the case of a Director Termination Event, the Investor
Parties shall no longer have any rights under this Section 5.10, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any designation or
nomination rights under Section 5.10(c). The Investor Parties shall provide prompt written notice to the Company upon occurrence
of the Director Termination Event.


 


(c)              
Following the Closing, and until the occurrence of a Director Termination Event, at any annual general meeting of the Company’s
shareholders at which the term of the Investor Director shall expire, the Investor shall have the right to designate an Investor Designee
to the Board at such annual meeting for election to the Board at such annual meeting. Subject to Section 5.10(e), the Company
shall include the Investor Designee designated by the Investor in accordance with this Section 5.10(c) in the Company’s
slate of nominees for the applicable annual general meeting of the Company’s shareholders. All of the Investor Parties covenant
to vote in favor of the Investor Designee at any annual general meeting of the Company’s shareholders at which the Investor Director
is nominated for election. Without the prior written consent of the Investor, so long as Investor Parties are entitled to designate an
Investor Designee for election to the Board in accordance with this Section 5.10, the Board shall not remove the Investor
Director from his or her directorship (except as required by Law, the Certificate of Designations or the Company Charter Documents or
as required by the Company’s governance and similar policies applicable to all directors).


 


(d)              
In the event of the death, disability, resignation (whether or not due to a Director Disqualification Event) or removal of the
Investor Director as a member of the Board (other than resignation pursuant to Section 5.10(b)), the Investor, if the Investor
Parties are entitled to designate a director pursuant to this Section 5.10, may designate an Investor Designee to replace
such Investor Director and, subject to Section 5.10(e), and the Company shall cause such Investor Designee to fill such resulting
vacancy.


 


(e)              
The Company’s obligations to have any Investor Designee elected to the Board or nominate any Investor Designee for election
as a director at any meeting of the Company’s shareholders pursuant to this Section 5.10, as applicable, shall in each
case be subject to (i) such Investor Designee’s satisfaction of all requirements regarding service as a director of the Company
under applicable Law and stock exchange rules regarding service as a director of the Company, and (ii) such Investor Designee meeting
all independence requirements under the listing rules of the NASDAQ or other stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then traded.
The Investor Parties will cause each Investor Designee to make himself or herself reasonably available for interviews and to consent
to such reference and background checks or other investigations as the Board may reasonably request to determine the Investor Designee’s
eligibility and qualification to serve as a director of the Company. No Investor Designee shall be eligible to serve on the Board if
he or she has been (i) involved in any of the events enumerated under Item 2(d) of Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act or Item 401(f)
of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, is a “Bad Actor” as defined in Rule 506(d)(1)(i)-(viii) promulgated under the

Designee’s election to the Board or nomination for election as a director of the Company at any annual general meeting of the Company’s
shareholders, (A) the Investor Designee must be approved by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board (or any successor
thereto), acting reasonably and in accordance with such directors’ fiduciary duties, and (B) the Investor Parties and the Investor
Designee must provide to the Company:


 






    28 


     


    

 


(i)                
all information requested by the Company that is required to be disclosed for directors, candidates for directors and their respective
Affiliates and Representatives in a proxy statement or other filings in accordance with applicable Law, any stock exchange rules or listing
standards or the Company Charter Documents or corporate governance guidelines, in each case, relating to the Investor Designee's election
as a director of the Company or the Company's operations in the ordinary course of business;


 


(ii)             
all information requested by the Company in connection with assessing eligibility and other criteria applicable to directors or
satisfying compliance and legal or regulatory obligations, in each case, relating to the Investor Designee's nomination or election,
as applicable, as a director of the Company or the Company's operations in the ordinary course of business; and


 


(iii)           
an undertaking in writing by the Investor Designee to (A) be subject to, bound by and duly comply with a confidentiality agreement
in a form acceptable to the Company, the Company's Code of Conduct, insider trading policy and other Company corporate governance policies
applicable to directors, with such changes thereto (or such successor policies) as are applicable to all other directors, in each case,
as such changes or successor policies are adopted in good faith by the Board; provided that no such code of conduct or insider
trading policy shall restrict any Transfer of securities by any member of the Investor Parties or any of their respective Affiliates
(other than with respect to the Investor Director solely in his or her individual capacity), and (B) at the request of the Board, to
recuse himself or herself from any deliberations or discussions of the Board or any committee thereof regarding matters arising under
the Transaction Documents that, in the reasonable determination of the Board based on the advice of counsel, excluding the Investor Director,
present actual or potential conflicts of interest with the Company, or other matters coming before the Board that, in the reasonable
determination of the Board, excluding the Investor Director, present actual or potential conflicts of interest with the Company.


 


(f)               
The Company shall indemnify each Investor Director and provide the Investor Director with director and officer insurance to the
same extent as it indemnifies and provides such insurance to other members of the Board, pursuant to the Company Charter Documents, the
Bermuda Companies Act 1981, as amended from time to time, or otherwise. The Company acknowledges and agrees that it (i) is the indemnitor
of first resort (i.e., its obligations to the Investor Director are primary and any obligation of the Investor Parties or their Affiliates
to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by any Investor Director are secondary)
and (ii) shall be required to advance the amount of expenses incurred by the Investor Director and shall be liable for the amount of
all expenses and liabilities incurred by the Investor Director, in each case to the same extent as it indemnifies and provides such insurance
to other members of the Board, pursuant to the Company Charter Documents, the Bermuda Companies Act 1981, as amended from time to time,
or otherwise, without regard to any rights the Investor Director may have against the Investor Parties or their Affiliates.


 






    29 


     


    

 


(g)              
The parties hereto agree that the Investor Director shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for the reasonable out-of-pocket
fees or expenses incurred in connection with his or her service as a director of the Board, in each case, in a manner consistent with
the Company’s Bye-laws and the Company’s practices with respect to reimbursement for other members of the Board, including
reimbursement pursuant to customary indemnification arrangements. The Investor Director shall not be entitled to receive any other compensation
from the Company for his or her service, including compensation to which the Investor Director would otherwise be entitled pursuant to
the Company’s outside director compensation policy.


 


(h)              
In the event that the Investor Parties, together with their controlled Affiliates, shall own Series A Preferred Shares that, together
with any Common Shares owned by such parties, represent in the aggregate in excess of 19.99% of the voting power of the Common Shares
on Fully Diluted Basis, then the Director Designee shall resign from the Board and may only be eligible to be reappointed to the Board
on the earlier of (i) all Required Regulatory Approvals being obtained, or (ii) the Investor Parties and their controlled Affiliates
having ceased to own in the aggregate 19.99% of the voting power of the Common Shares on a Fully Diluted Basis; provided, that
no Director Termination Event shall have occurred prior to either such date.


 


(i)                
Until such time as the Investor Designee is appointed to the Board in accordance with Section 5.10(a), the Original
Investor Designee may serve as an observer to the Board (in such capacity, the “Investor Observer”). Until the earlier
of the appointment of the Original Investor Designee to the Board and the Director Termination Event, the Investor Observer shall be
permitted to attend, strictly as an observer, meetings of the Board and its committees, and material information delivered to the Board
and its committees shall be delivered to the Investor Observer at substantially the same time as delivered to other non-executive directors
and/or committee members, as applicable; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to withhold any information
and to exclude the Investor Observer from all or any portion of any meeting if access to such information or attendance at such meeting
or portion of a meeting could reasonably be expected to (i) adversely affect the attorney-client privilege or work product protection,
(ii) violate any applicable Law, (iii) violate the terms of any confidentiality agreement or other contract with a third party, or (iv)
result in disclosure of trade secrets, highly confidential information or a conflict of interest. The Investor Observer shall not have
any voting rights with respect to any matters considered or determined by the Board or any committee thereof, or be entitled to receive
any compensation in his or her capacity as Investor Observer. Any action taken by the Board at any meeting will not be invalidated by
the absence of the Investor Observer at such meeting. The Investor Observer will enter into a confidentiality agreement in a form acceptable
to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, no Investor Observer shall be permitted to attend meetings of the Board, or portions thereof,
or receive information delivered to the Board in connection with any present actual or potential conflicts of interest with the Company,
or other matters coming before the Board that, in the reasonable determination of the Board, present actual or potential conflicts of
interest with the Company.

(a)              
At each meeting of the shareholders of the Company (including, if applicable, through the execution of one or more written consents
if shareholders of the Company are requested to vote through the execution of an action by written consent in lieu of any such annual
general meeting or special meeting of shareholders of the Company) and at every postponement or adjournment thereof, each Investor Party
shall take such action as may be required so that all Series A Preferred Shares and Common Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly,
by such Investor Party or its controlled Affiliates and entitled to vote at such meeting of shareholders are voted, (i) in favor of each
director nominated and recommended by the Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) for election at any such meeting, (ii) against
any shareholder nominations for directors which are not approved and recommended by the Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof)
for election at any such meeting, (iii) in favor of the Company’s “say-on-pay” proposal and any proposal by the Company
relating to equity compensation that has been approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board and (iv) in favor of the Company’s
proposal for ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; provided,
that no Investor Party shall be under any obligation to vote in the same manner as recommended by the Board or in any other manner, other
than in the Investor Parties’ sole discretion, with respect to any other matter, including the approval (or non-approval) or adoption
(or non-adoption) of, or other proposal directly related to, any merger, amalgamation, scheme of arrangement or other business combination
transaction involving the Company, the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries or any other
change of control transaction involving the Company.


 


(b)              
Each Investor Party shall be present, in person or by proxy, at all meetings of the shareholders of the Company so that all Series
A Preferred Shares or Common Shares beneficially owned by such Investor Party or its controlled Affiliates may be counted for the purposes
of determining the presence of a quorum and voted in accordance with Section 5.11(a) at such meetings (including at any adjournments
or postponements thereof). The foregoing provision shall also apply to the execution by such Persons of any consent in lieu of a meeting
of holders of shares of Common Shares or Series A Preferred Shares.

relating to procedures and specified time periods for effecting Transfers and/or conversions upon foreclosure, agreements to not hinder
or delay exercises of remedies on foreclosure, acknowledgments regarding corporate policy, if applicable, certain acknowledgments regarding
securities Law status of the pledge arrangements and a specified list of Competitors) and subject to the consent of the Company, with

A Preferred Shares upon payment of the purchase price therefor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and


 


(e)              
such other cooperation and assistance as the Investor Parties may reasonably request (which cooperation and assistance, for the
avoidance of doubt, shall not include any requirements that the Company deliver information, compliance certificates or any other materials

underlying Common Shares as collateral to the lenders under such Permitted Loan and that the execution of such Permitted Loan and the
terms thereof do not violate the terms of this Agreement and (B) such Investor Party acknowledges and agrees that the Company will be

this Agreement, the Investor Parties shall not be entitled to use the statements and agreements of the Company in an Issuer Agreement

Party or its respective Affiliates in response to any general solicitation or advertising not specifically targeted to employees of the
Company or (B) any former employee of the Company whose employment or engagement with the Company was terminated (x) by the Company or

the Transaction Documents without obtaining such consent or approval or which would result in a change or adjustment of the Conversion
Rate (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), assuming in each case that the terms of the Certificate of Designations were effective
and binding against the Company during such period.

 The Company shall make due inquiry with its tax advisors or accountants on at least an annual basis regarding the potential status
of the Company as a “controlled foreign corporation” (a “CFC”) as defined in Section 957(a) of the Code
or a “passive foreign investment company” (a “PFIC”) as defined in Section 1297(a) of the Code. In the
event the Company determines that it is a CFC or a PFIC in a taxable year, as soon as reasonably practicable following the end of each
such taxable year of the Company (but in no event later than 90 days following the end of each such taxable year), the Company shall
promptly notify each Investor in writing regarding the Company’s CFC and PFIC status. The Company shall provide each Investor with
any information reasonably requested in writing by such Investor to allow such Investor to otherwise comply with applicable U.S. federal
income tax laws (including any obligation by an Investor to report its pro rata portion of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’
“Subpart F income”, as defined in Section 952(a) of the Code, or its “global intangible low-taxed income”, as
defined in Section 951A of the Code).

In the event the Company determines it or any of its Subsidiaries has become a PFIC for any taxable year, as soon as reasonably
practicable following the end of each taxable year of the Company (but in no event later than 90 days following the end of each such
taxable year), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare all forms and information necessary for each Investor
(or any of its direct or indirect owners) to make an election to treat the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) as a “qualified
electing fund” under Section 1295 of the Code (a “QEF Election”). In the event that any Investor notifies the

by either the Company or the all of Investor if any Restraint enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Transactions

(d)              
by the Investor if the Company shall have breached any of its representations or warranties or failed to perform any of its covenants

Date, or if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within thirty (30) calendar days (but in no event later than the Agreement

by the Company if the Investor shall have breached any of their respective representations or warranties or failed to perform

party resulting from a willful breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement prior to the date of termination
or from any fraud.

Survival. The covenants or other agreements of the parties

Section 8.06       
Governing Law; Jurisdiction.


 


(a)

out of or relating to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (collectively, the “Relevant
Matters”), shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, regardless of the laws
that might otherwise govern under any applicable conflict of Laws principles.


 






    38 


     


    

 


(b)              
 All Actions arising out of or relating to any Relevant Matter shall be heard and determined in any state or federal court located
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction
and venue of such courts in any such Action and irrevocably waive the defense of an inconvenient forum or lack of jurisdiction to the
maintenance of any such Action. The consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section 8.06 shall not constitute
general consents to service of process in the State of New York and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this Section 8.06(b)
and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto. Each party hereto agrees that service of process
upon such party in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if notice is given by overnight courier
at the address set forth in Section 8.09 of this Agreement. The parties hereby waive any right to stay or dismiss any action
or proceeding in connection with any Relevant Matter brought before the foregoing courts on the basis of (i) any claim that it is not
personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason or that it or any of its property is immune from the
above-described legal process, (ii) that such action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that venue for the action or
proceeding is improper or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts, or (iii) any other defense that would hinder
or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which any Party hereto is entitled pursuant to any final judgment of any
court having jurisdiction. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced
in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law; provided that nothing in the
foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, a final trial court
judgment.


 


Section 8.07       
Specific Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable
damage for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of
this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached, including if the parties hereto fail
to take any action required of them hereunder to cause the Closing to occur. The parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the parties shall
be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches
of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 8.06 without
proof of damages or otherwise (in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 8.07), this being in addition
to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and (b) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of
the Transactions and without that right, neither the Company nor the Investor would have entered into this Agreement. The parties hereto
agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, and
agree not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the parties otherwise have an adequate
remedy at Law. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this
Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 8.07 shall
not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement
to an Article, a Section, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to an Article of, a Section of, or an Exhibit or Schedule to,
this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes
only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”,
“includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the
words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder”
and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision
of this Agreement unless the context requires otherwise. The terms “or”, “any” and “either”
are not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which
a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. The word “will” shall
be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. The words “made available to the Investor”
and words of similar import refer to documents delivered in Person or electronically to the Investor or its Representatives in each case
no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the date of this Agreement. All accounting terms used and not defined herein shall have the
respective meanings given to them under GAAP. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the
plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument
or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument
or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or
consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments
incorporated therein. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all references to “dollars” or “$”
shall refer to the lawful money of the United States. References to a Person are also to its permitted assigns and successors. When calculating
the period of time between which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the
date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded (and unless, otherwise required by Law, if the last day
of such period is not a Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding Business Day).


 


The parties hereto have participated jointly in
the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement
shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring
any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

(B) the Conversion Price as of the applicable Conversion Date plus (ii) cash in lieu of fractional shares as set out in Section 11(h);
provided that, unless and until the Requisite Shareholder Approval is obtained, no Common Shares will be issued or delivered upon
conversion of any Series A Preferred Share of any Holder, and no Series A Preferred Share of any Holder will be convertible,
in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such issuance, delivery, conversion or convertibility would result in the Holders
in the aggregate Beneficially Owning in excess of nineteen and nine-tenths percent (19.9%) of the number of Common Shares then outstanding
or the total voting power of the Voting Shares then outstanding. Subject to the foregoing conditions, the right of conversion may be
exercised as to all or any portion of such Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares from time to time.

Price as expected to be in effect on the Mandatory Conversion Date, the number of Series A Preferred Shares to be converted from
such Holder, the number of Common Shares expected to be issued to such Holder upon conversion of each such Series A Preferred Share
and the Liquidation Preference expected as of the Mandatory Conversion Date.


 


(c) Mandatory Conversion Before
First Reset Date. Upon any conversion on or before the First Reset Date resulting from a Mandatory Conversion at the Issuer’s
Option, all Dividends that would have accrued from the Mandatory Conversion Date to the later of the First Reset Date or the last day
of the eighth quarter following the Mandatory Conversion Date, the last eight quarters of which shall be discounted to present value
using a discount rate of 3.5%, will be immediately payable in the Company’s Common Shares, valued at the average of the daily VWAP
of the Company’s Common Shares during the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the conversion.


 


Section
8. Conversion Procedures and Effect of Conversion.


 


(a) Conversion Procedure.
A Holder must do each of the following in order to convert Series A Preferred Shares pursuant to this Section 8(a):


 


(i) in the case of
a conversion pursuant to Section 6(a), complete and sign the conversion notice provided by the Conversion Agent (the “Conversion
Notice”), and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent; provided that a Conversion Notice may be conditional on the
completion of a Fundamental Change or other corporate transaction;


 


(ii) deliver to the
Conversion Agent the certificate or certificates (if any) representing the Series A Preferred Shares to be converted;


 






    11 


     


    

 


(iii) if required,
furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents; and


 


(iv) if required,
pay any stock transfer, documentary, stamp or similar taxes not payable by the Company pursuant to Section 20.


 


The “Conversion Date”
means (A) with respect to conversion of any Series A Preferred Shares at the option of any Holder pursuant to Section 6(a),
the date on which such Holder complies with the procedures in this Section 8(a) (including the satisfaction of any conditions
to conversion set forth in the Conversion Notice) and (B) with respect to Mandatory Conversion pursuant to Section 7(a),
the Mandatory Conversion Date.


 


(b) Effect of Conversion.
Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Conversion Date applicable to any Series A Preferred Shares, Dividends
shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such Series A Preferred Shares, and such Series A Preferred Shares shall cease
to be outstanding. Upon any conversion, the Holder will not receive any payment in cash, Common Shares or Series A Preferred Shares
representing Accrued Dividends for any period following the last day of the most recently completed fiscal quarter, except as otherwise
set forth in Section 8(c).


 


(c) Record Holder of Underlying
Securities as of Conversion Date. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Shares and, to the extent applicable, cash,
securities or other property issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Shares on a Conversion Date shall be treated for all
purposes as the record holder(s) of such Common Shares and/or cash, securities or other property as of the close of business on such
Conversion Date. As promptly as practicable on or after the Conversion Date and, if applicable, compliance by the applicable Holder with
the relevant procedures contained in Section 8(a) (and in any event no later than three (3) Trading Days thereafter; provided
however that, if a written notice from the Holder in accordance with Section 8(a)(i) specifies a date of delivery for
any Common Shares, such shares shall be delivered on the date so specified, which shall be no earlier than the second (2nd) Business
Day immediately following the date of such notice and no later than the seventh (7th) Business Day thereafter), the Company shall issue
the number of whole Common Shares issuable upon conversion (and deliver payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares as set out in Section 11(h))
and, to the extent applicable, any cash, securities or other property issuable thereon. Such delivery of Common Shares, securities or
other property shall be made by book-entry or, at the request of the Holder, by delivering a notice to the Conversion Agent, through
the facilities of The Depositary Trust Company or in certificated form. Any such certificate or certificates shall be delivered by the
Company to the appropriate Holder on a book-entry basis, through the facilities of The Depositary Trust Company, or by mailing certificates
evidencing the shares to the Holders, in each case at their respective addresses as set forth in the Conversion Notice (in the case of
a conversion pursuant to Section 6(a)) or in the records of the Company or as set forth in a notice from the Holder to the
Conversion Agent, as applicable (in the case of a Mandatory Conversion). In the event that a Holder shall not by written notice designate
the name in which Common Shares (and payments of cash in lieu of fractional shares) and, to the extent applicable, cash, securities or
other property to be delivered upon conversion of Series A Preferred Shares should be registered or paid, or the manner in which
such shares, cash, securities or other property should be delivered, the Company shall be entitled to register and deliver such shares,
securities or other property, and make such payment, in the name of the Holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Company.


 


(d) Status of Converted or
Reacquired Shares. Series A Preferred Shares converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations, or otherwise acquired
by the Company in any manner whatsoever, shall be retired promptly after the conversion or acquisition thereof and shall not be reissued
as shares of such series. All such shares shall, upon their retirement, become authorized but unissued Preferred Shares, without designation
as to series until such shares are once more designated as part of a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the
Bye-Laws.


 


(e) Partial Conversion.
In case any certificate for Series A Preferred Shares shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall, at its expense,
execute and deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder of the certificate so surrendered a new certificate for the Series A
Preferred Shares not converted.

Section
9. Fundamental Change.


 


(a) Holder Rights Upon Fundamental
Change. Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, each Holder of outstanding Series A Preferred Shares may, at such Holder’s
election, effective as of immediately prior to the Fundamental Change, convert all or a portion of its Series A Preferred Shares
pursuant to Section 6(a), provided that if the Holder does not make such an election with respect to all of its Series A Preferred
Shares, such Holder may require the Company to repurchase (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase”) any or all of such
Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares at a purchase price per Series A Preferred Share equal to the sum of the Liquidation
Preference and the Accrued Dividends with respect to such Series A Preferred Share (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price”), subject to applicable law, including, as applicable, the requirements of section 42 or section 42A of the Act. The
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be paid in cash.


 


(b) Initial Fundamental Change
Notice. On or before the twentieth (20th) Business Day prior to the effective date of a Fundamental Change (the “Fundamental
Change Effective Date”) (or, if later, promptly after the Company discovers that a Fundamental Change may occur), a written
notice (the “Initial Fundamental Change Notice”) shall be sent by or on behalf of the Company to the Holders as they
appear in the records of the Company, which notice shall contain (i) the date on which the Fundamental Change is anticipated to be effected
(or, if applicable, the date on which a Schedule TO or other schedule, form or report disclosing a Fundamental Change was filed), (ii)
a description of the material terms and conditions of the Fundamental Change and (iii) the then applicable Conversion Price. No later
than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Fundamental Change Effective Date as set forth in the Initial Fundamental Change Notice (or,
if the Fundamental Change has already occurred as provided in the Initial Fundamental Change Notice, promptly, but no later than the
tenth (10th) Business Day following receipt thereof), any Holder that desires to exercise its rights
pursuant to Section 9(a) shall notify the Company in writing thereof and shall specify (x) whether such Holder is electing
to exercise its right to convert all or a portion of its Series A Preferred Shares or to cause the Company to repurchase all or
a portion of its Series A Preferred Shares pursuant to Section 9(a), and (y) the number of Series A Preferred Shares
subject thereto.


 


(c) Final Fundamental Change
Repurchase Notice. Within two (2) days prior to the Fundamental Change Effective Date (or if the Company discovers later than such
date that a Fundamental Change has occurred, promptly following the date of such discovery), a final written notice shall be sent by
or on behalf of the Company to the Holders as they appear in the records of the Company on the Business Day immediately prior to the
date such notice is sent, which notice shall contain:


 


(i) a statement setting
forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Holder;


 


(ii) the Fundamental
Change Repurchase Date, which shall be no later than 60 days after such notice is sent; provided, that a reasonable amount of
time shall be provided between delivery of such notice and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date to allow such Holder to comply with
the instructions delivered pursuant to Section 9(c)(iii) below; and


 


(iii) the instructions
a Holder must follow to receive the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price in connection with such Fundamental Change.


 


(d) Fundamental Change Repurchase
Procedure. To receive the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, a Holder must surrender to the Transfer Agent in accordance with the
instructions delivered pursuant to Section 9(c)(iii), the certificates representing the Series A Preferred Shares to
be repurchased by the Company or lost share affidavits therefor, to the extent applicable.


 






    13 


     


    

 


(e) Delivery upon Fundamental
Change Repurchase. Upon a Fundamental Change Repurchase, subject to Section 9(i) below, the Company (or its successor)
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder by wire transfer of immediately available funds or delivery of Common Shares or
a combination thereof, as applicable, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for such Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares.


 


(f) Treatment of Shares.
Until a Series A Preferred Share is repurchased by the payment or deposit in full of the applicable Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price as provided in Section 9(h), such Series A Preferred Share will remain outstanding and will be entitled to all
of the powers, designations, preferences and other rights provided herein; except that no such Series A Preferred Shares
may be converted into Common Shares following the Fundamental Change Effective Date.


 


(g) Fundamental Change Agreements.
The Company shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Fundamental Change unless such agreement provides for
or does not interfere with or prevent (as applicable) the exercise by the Holders of their Fundamental Change Repurchase in a manner
that is consistent with and gives effect to this Section 9.


 


(h) With respect to any Series A
Preferred Share to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Fundamental Change Repurchase and which has been redeemed in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 9, or for which the Company has irrevocably deposited an amount in cash equal to the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price in respect of such share with the Transfer Agent, (i) Dividends shall cease to accrue on such share,
(ii) such share shall no longer be deemed outstanding and (iii) all rights with respect to such share shall cease and terminate other
than the rights of the Holder thereof to receive the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor.


 


(i) Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Section 9, in the event of a Fundamental Change Repurchase, the Company shall only pay the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price after paying in full in cash all obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under any credit
agreement, indenture or similar agreement evidencing indebtedness for borrowed money (including the termination of all commitments to
lend, to the extent required by such credit agreement, indenture or similar agreement), which requires prior payment of the obligations
thereunder (and termination of commitments thereunder, if applicable) as a condition to the payment of such Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price.


 


(j) Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Section 9, upon any Fundamental Change Repurchase on or before the First Reset Date, all Dividends
that would have accrued between the Original Issuance Date and the First Reset Date, but have not yet been paid, will be immediately
payable in cash, to the extent not prohibited by law, including under section 54 of the Act.


 


Section
10. Redemption. Except as provided in Section 9, the Series A Preferred Shares shall not be subject to any mandatory
redemption, and shall not be redeemable at the option of the Company or the Holders.


 






    14 


     


    

 


Section
11. Anti-Dilution Adjustments.


 


(a) Adjustments. The Conversion
Price will be subject to adjustment, without duplication, upon the occurrence of the following events:


 


(i) The issuance of
Common Shares as a dividend or distribution to all or substantially all holders of Common Shares, or a subdivision or combination of
Common Shares or a reclassification of Common Shares into a greater or lesser number of Common Shares, in which event the Conversion
Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:


 


CP1
= CP0 x (OS0 / OS1)


 


CP0
= the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on (i) the Record Date for such dividend or distribution,
or (ii) the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification, as applicable


 


CP1
= the new Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on (i) the Record Date for such dividend or distribution,
or (ii) the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification, as applicable


 


OS0
= the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on (i) the Record Date for such dividend
or distribution or (ii) the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification, as applicable


 


OS1
= the number of Common Shares that would be outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, the completion of (i) such
dividend or distribution or (ii) such subdivision, combination or reclassification, as applicable


 


Any adjustment made
pursuant to this clause (i) shall be effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution,
or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification. If any such event is announced or declared but does not occur,
the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board announces that such event shall not occur, to the Conversion
Price that would then be in effect if such event had not been declared.


 


(ii) The dividend,
distribution or other issuance to all or substantially all holders of Common Shares of rights (other than rights, options or warrants
distributed in connection with a shareholder rights plan (in which event the provisions of Section 11(a)(viii) shall apply)),
options or warrants entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares for a period expiring forty-five (45) days or less from
the date of issuance thereof, at a price per share that is less than the Current Market Price as of the Record Date for such issuance,
in which event the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:


 


CP1
= CP0 x [(OS0+Y) / (OS0+X)]


 


CP0
= the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend, distribution
or issuance


 


CP1
= the new Conversion Price in effect immediately following the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend, distribution
or issuance


 


OS0
= the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend, distribution
or issuance


 


X = the total number of
Common Shares issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants


 


Y = the number of Common
Shares equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants divided by the Current Market Price as of the
Record Date for such dividend, distribution or issuance


 






    15 


     


    

 


For purposes of this
clause (ii), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to purchase the Common Shares at a price per
share that is less than the Current Market Price as of the Record Date for such dividend, distribution or issuance, there shall be taken
into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants, and any amount payable on exercise thereof,
with the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be the Fair Market Value thereof.


 


Any adjustment made
pursuant to this clause (ii) shall become effective immediately following the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend,
distribution or issuance. In the event that such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted,
effective as of the date the Board publicly announces its decision not to issue such rights, options or warrants, to the Conversion Price
that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution or issuance had not been declared. To the extent that such rights, options
or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or Common Shares are otherwise not delivered pursuant to such rights, options
or warrants upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price that
would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the dividend, distribution or issuance of such rights, options or warrants been
made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of Common Shares actually delivered.


 


(iii) The Company
or one or more of its Subsidiaries purchases Common Shares pursuant to a tender offer or exchange offer (other than an exchange offer
that constitutes a Distribution Transaction subject to Section 11(a)(v)) by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company for
all or any portion of the Common Shares, or otherwise acquires Common Shares (except (1) in an open market purchase in compliance with
Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act, (2) through an “accelerated share repurchase” on customary terms, or (3)
in connection with tax withholding upon vesting or settlement of options, restricted stock units, performance share units or other similar
equity awards or upon forfeiture or cashless exercise of options or other equity awards) (a “Covered Repurchase”),
if the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per Common Share validly tendered, exchanged or otherwise acquired
through a Covered Repurchase exceeds the arithmetic average of the VWAP per Common Share for each of the five (5) consecutive full Trading
Days commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last day on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to
such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended) or Common Shares are otherwise acquired through a Covered Repurchase (the “Expiration
Date”), in which event the Conversion Price shall be decreased based on the following formula:


 


CP1
= CP0 x [(SP1 x OS0)
/ (FMV + (SP1 x OS1))]


 


CP0
= the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date


 


CP1
= the new Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on the Expiration Date


 


FMV = the Fair Market
Value, on the Expiration Date, of all cash and any other consideration paid or payable for all shares validly tendered or exchanged and
not withdrawn, or otherwise acquired through a Covered Repurchase, as of the Expiration Date


 


OS0
= the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the last time tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such
tender or exchange offer (including the shares to be purchased in such tender or exchange offer) or shares are otherwise acquired through
a Covered Repurchase


 






    16 


     


    

 


OS1
= the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after the last time tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender
or exchange offer (after giving effect to the purchase of shares in such tender or exchange offer) or shares are otherwise acquired through
a Covered Repurchase


 


SP1
= the arithmetic average of the VWAP per Common Share for each of the five (5) consecutive full Trading Days commencing on, and
including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date


 


Such adjustment shall
become effective immediately after the close of business on the Expiration Date. If an adjustment to the Conversion Price is required
under this Section 11(a)(iii), delivery of any additional Common Shares that may be deliverable upon conversion as a result
of an adjustment required under this Section 11(a)(iii) shall be delayed to the extent necessary in order to complete the
calculations provided for in this Section 11(a)(iii).


 


In the event that
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase Common Shares pursuant to any such tender offer, exchange offer or other
commitment to acquire Common Shares through a Covered Repurchase but is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such
purchases, or all such purchases are rescinded, then the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Price that would have
been then in effect if such tender offer, exchange offer or Covered Repurchase had not been made.


 


(iv) The Company shall,
by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Shares (other than for cash in lieu of fractional
shares), any class of its Capital Shares, evidences of its indebtedness, assets, other property or securities, but excluding (A) dividends
or distributions referred to in Section 11(a)(i) or Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, (B) Distribution Transactions
as to which Section 11(a)(v) shall apply, (C) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which Section 11(a)(vi)
shall apply and (D) rights, options or warrants distributed in connection with a shareholder rights plan as to which Section 11(a)(viii)
shall apply (any of such Capital Shares, indebtedness, assets or property that are not so excluded are hereinafter called the “Distributed
Property”), then, in each such case the Conversion Price shall be decreased based on the following formula:


 


CP1
= CP0 x [(SP0 – FMV) / SP0]


 


CP0
= the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution


 


CP1
= the new Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution


 


SP0
= the Current Market Price as of the Record Date for such dividend or distribution


 


FMV = the Fair Market
Value of the portion of Distributed Property distributed with respect to each outstanding Common Share on the Record Date for such dividend
or distribution


 


Any adjustment made
pursuant to this clause (iv) shall be effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution.
If any such dividend or distribution is declared but does not occur, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date
the Board announces that such dividend or distribution shall not occur, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such
dividend or distribution had not been declared.


 






    17 


     


    

 


(v) The Company effects
a Distribution Transaction, in which case the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of the Distribution
Transaction shall be decreased based on the following formula:


 


CP1
= CP0 x [MP0 / (FMV + MP0)]


 


CP0
= the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the effective date of the Distribution Transaction


 


CP1
= the new Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on the effective date of the Distribution Transaction


 


FMV = the arithmetic average
of the volume-weighted average prices for a capital share or other interest distributed to holders of Common Shares on the principal
United States securities exchange or automated quotation system on which such capital shares or other interests trade, as reported by
Bloomberg (or, if Bloomberg ceases to publish such price, any successor service chosen by the Company) in respect of the period from
the open of trading on the relevant Trading Day until the close of trading on such Trading Day (or if such volume-weighted average price
is unavailable, the market price of one capital share or other interest on such Trading Day determined, using a volume-weighted average
method, by an Independent Financial Advisor retained for such purpose by the Company), for each of the ten consecutive full Trading Days
commencing with, and including, the effective date of the Distribution Transaction


 


MP0
= the arithmetic average of the VWAP per Common Share for each of the five (5) consecutive full Trading Days commencing on, and
including, the effective date of the Distribution Transaction


 


Such adjustment shall
become effective immediately following the close of business on the effective date of the Distribution Transaction. If an adjustment
to the Conversion Price is required under this Section 11(a)(v), delivery of any additional Common Shares that may be deliverable
upon conversion as a result of an adjustment required under this Section 11(a)(v) shall be delayed to the extent necessary
in order to complete the calculations provided for in this Section 11(a)(v).


 


(vi) The Company makes
a cash dividend or distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares other than a Permitted Dividend, in which case
the Conversion Price shall be decreased based on the following formula:


 


CP1
= CP0 x [(SP0 – C) / SP0]


 


CP0
= the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution


 


CP1
= the new Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution


 


SP0
= the Current Market Price as of the Record Date for such dividend or distribution


 


C = the amount in cash
per Common Share the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its Common Shares in excess of the Permitted Dividend;
provided that, if C is equal or greater than SP0, then in lieu of the foregoing adjustment,
the Company shall pay to each holder of Series A Preferred Shares on the date the applicable cash dividend or distribution is made to
holders of Common Shares, but without requiring such holder to convert its shares of Series A Preferred Shares, in respect of each Series
A Preferred Share held by such holder, the amount of cash such holder would have received had such holder owned a number of Common Shares
equal to the Conversion Price on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution


 






    18 


     


    

 


provided that cash
dividends in excess of $0.10 per Common Share per quarter (as adjusted for share splits and combinations, share dividends, recapitalizations
and similar events) shall not be permitted if the Dividend on the Series A Preferred Shares for that quarter is not paid in cash, unless
the Company’s U.S.-based insurance subsidiaries have Risk-Based Capital in excess of 325% or the Company’s direct Bermuda-based
insurance subsidiary has Enhanced Capital Requirement over 135% for such quarter, in which case higher cash dividends on the Common Shares
shall be permitted and the conversion Price shall be adjusted as provided in this Section 11(a)(vi)


 


Any adjustment made
pursuant to this clause (vi) shall be effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution.
If any dividend or distribution is declared but not paid, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board
announces that such dividend or distribution will not be paid, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such had dividend
or distribution not been declared.


 


(vii) The Company
recognizes Adverse Development Charges exceeding $45,000,000 in the aggregate during the Reserve Development Measurement Period, in which
case the Conversion Price shall be decreased based on the following formula:


 


CP1
= CP0 * ((TBV – AD) / TBV)


 


CP0
= the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date of public filing of the Company’s
financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025; or earlier, in the case of Mandatory Conversion pursuant to Section 7(a)
or an optional conversion pursuant to Section 6(a), as described below, not reflecting the AD


 


CP1
= the new Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on the date of public filing of the Company’s
financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025; or earlier, in the case of Mandatory Conversion pursuant to Section 7(a)
or an optional conversion pursuant to Section 6(a), as described below, reflecting the AD


 


AD = the dollar value
of the Adverse Development Charges in excess of $45,000,000 during the Reserve Development Measurement Period


 


TBV = the tangible book
value of the Company as of December 31, 2021


 


provided that in
no event will CP1 be lower than the product of (a) CP0 multiplied
by 105% divided by (b) 127.5%


 


Any adjustment made
pursuant to this Section 11(a)(vii) shall be effective immediately after the close of business on the date of the public filing of the
Company’s financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2025 reflecting the Adverse Development Charges or, if earlier,
upon any Mandatory Conversion pursuant to Section 7(a) or an optional conversion pursuant to Section 6(a) of
all outstanding Series  Preferred Shares, in which case the adjustment, if any, made pursuant to this Section 11(a)(vii) shall be
effective immediately after the close of business on the date of the public filing of the Company’s financial statements for the
most recent quarterly period preceding the conversion. In the event that such financial statements are not yet available as of the time
of conversion, any additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be delivered to the Holders upon the issuance of such
financial statements and the calculation of the adjustment based thereupon.


 






    19 


     


    

 


Upon any adjustment
to be made pursuant to this Section 11(a)(vii), the Company shall prepare a calculation of the adjustment (the “Calculation
Notice”) and deliver it with reasonable backup prepared or approved by the Calculation Agent to the Holders. The Holders and
their representatives shall be afforded reasonable access to the books, records and personnel of the Company in order to confirm the
calculations. If Holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Shares do not deliver an objection (a “Notice of Objection”)
to such calculation within 10 business days of delivery of the Calculation Notice, the calculation of the Company shall be deemed agreed
to. If Holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Shares deliver a Notice of Objection within 10 business days of delivery of the
Calculation Notice, such Holders and the Company shall in good faith attempt to reach agreement as to the calculation. If within such
10 business days they have been unable to agree, the Holders and the Company will submit such calculation to an independent arbitrating
actuary, and such independent arbitrating actuary’s conclusion as to such calculation shall be binding and final. If the Holders
and the Company are unable to agree upon the selection of the independent arbitrating actuary, such independent arbitrating actuary shall
be selected in accordance with the procedures of the American Arbitration Association. The Holders and the Company acknowledge and agree
that time is of the essence of this process, and the independent arbitrating actuary shall be instructed and required to render his or
her decision within 30 days following his or her appointment. The expenses of such independent arbitrating actuary shall be borne 50%
by the Holders and 50% by the Company.


 


(viii) If the Company
has a shareholder rights plan in effect with respect to the Common Shares on any Conversion Date, upon conversion of any Series A
Preferred Shares, Holders of such shares will receive, in addition to the applicable number of Common Shares, the rights under such rights
plan relating to such Common Shares, unless, prior to such Conversion Date, the rights have (i) become exercisable or (ii) separated
from the Common Shares (the first of such events to occur, a “Trigger Event”), in which case, the Conversion Price
will be adjusted, effective automatically at the time of such Trigger Event, as if the Company had made a distribution of such rights
to all holders of Common Shares as described in Section 11(a)(ii) (without giving effect to the forty-five (45) day limit
on the exercisability of rights, options or warrants ordinarily subject to such Section 11(a)(ii)), subject to appropriate
readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights prior to the exercise, deemed exercise or exchange
thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any such shareholder rights are exchanged by the Company for Common Shares or other
property or securities, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately readjusted as if such shareholder rights had not been issued, but
the Company had instead issued such Common Shares or other property or securities as a dividend or distribution of Common Shares pursuant
to Section 11(a)(i) or Section 11(a)(iv), as applicable.


 


To the extent that
such rights are not exercised prior to their expiration, termination or redemption, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion
Price that would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the occurrence of the Trigger Event been made on the basis of the issuance
of, and the receipt of the exercise price with respect to, only the number of Common Shares actually issued pursuant to such rights.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Section 11(a)(viii), no adjustment shall be required to be made to the Conversion Price with respect
to any Holder which is, or is an “affiliate” or “associate” of, an “acquiring person” under such
shareholder rights plan or with respect to any direct or indirect transferee of such Holder who receives Series A Preferred Shares
in such transfer after the time such Holder becomes, or its affiliate or associate becomes, such an “acquiring person.”


 






    20 


     


    

 


(b) Calculation of Adjustments.
All adjustments to the Conversion Price shall be calculated by the Company to the nearest 1/10,000th of one Common Share (or if there
is not a nearest 1/10,000th of a share, to the next lower 1/10,000th of a share). No adjustment to the Conversion Price will be required
unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent of the Conversion Price ; provided, however,
that any such adjustment that is not required to be made will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment;
provided, further that any such adjustment of less than one percent that has not been made will be made upon any Conversion
Date or redemption or repurchase date.


 


(c) When No Adjustment Required.
(i) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11, the Conversion Price will not be adjusted for the issuance of Common
Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares or carrying the right to purchase any of the foregoing, or
for the repurchase of Common Shares.


 


(ii) Except as otherwise
provided in this Section 11, the Conversion Price will not be adjusted as a result of the issuance of, the distribution of
separate certificates representing, the exercise or redemption of, or the termination or invalidation of, rights pursuant to any shareholder
rights plans.


 


(iii) No adjustment
to the Conversion Price will be made:


 


(A) upon the issuance
of any Common Shares pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities
of the Company and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Shares under any plan in which purchases are made at market
prices on the date or dates of purchase, without discount, and whether or not the Company bears the ordinary costs of administration
and operation of the plan, including brokerage commissions;


 


(B) upon the issuance
of any Common Shares or options or rights to purchase such shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant
benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or of any employee agreements or arrangements or programs,
including, without limitation, the Company’s Amended and Restated 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, 2014 Long Term Incentive Plan, and
2014 Non-Employee Director Incentive Plan;


 


(C) upon the issuance
of any Common Shares pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security, including the Series A
Preferred Shares; or


 


(D) for a change in
the par value of the Common Shares.


 


(d) Successive Adjustments.
After an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 11, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this
Section 11 shall cause an adjustment to each such Conversion Price as so adjusted.


 


(e) Multiple Adjustments.
For the avoidance of doubt, if an event occurs that would trigger an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 11
under more than one subsection hereof, such event, to the extent fully taken into account in a single adjustment, shall not
result in multiple adjustments hereunder; provided, however, that if more than one subsection of this Section 11
is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment.


 






    21 


     


    

 


(f) Notice of Adjustments.
Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as provided under this Section 11, the Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable
following the occurrence of an event that requires such adjustment (or if the Company is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as reasonably
practicable after becoming so aware):


 


(i) compute the adjusted
applicable Conversion Price in accordance with this Section 11 and prepare and transmit to the Conversion Agent an Officer’s
Certificate setting forth the applicable Conversion Price, the method of calculation thereof, and the facts requiring such adjustment
and upon which such adjustment is based; and


 


(ii) provide a written
notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such event and a statement in reasonable detail setting forth the method by which the adjustment
to the applicable Conversion Price was determined and setting forth the adjusted applicable Conversion Price.


 


(g) Conversion Agent. The
Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine whether any facts exist that may
require any adjustment of the Conversion Price or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made,
or with respect to the method employed in making the same. The Conversion Agent shall be fully authorized and protected in relying on
any Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 11(g) and any adjustment contained therein and the Conversion
Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment unless and until it has received such certificate. The Conversion Agent
shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Common Shares, or of any securities or
property, that may at the time be issued or delivered with respect to any Series A Preferred Shares and the Conversion Agent makes
no representation with respect thereto. The Conversion Agent shall not be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer
or deliver any Common Shares pursuant to the conversion of Series A Preferred Shares or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities
or covenants of the Company contained in this Section 11.


 


(h) Fractional Shares.
No fractional Common Shares will be delivered to the Holders upon conversion. In lieu of fractional shares otherwise issuable, the Holders
will be entitled to receive, at the Company’s sole discretion, either (i) an amount in cash equal to the fraction of a Common Share
multiplied by the Closing Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date or (ii)
one additional whole Common Share. In order to determine whether the number of Common Shares to be delivered to a Holder upon the conversion
of such Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares will include a fractional share, such determination shall be based on the aggregate
number of Series A Preferred Shares of such Holder that are being converted and/or issued on any single Conversion Date or Fundamental
Change Repurchase Date.


 


Section
12. Adjustment for Reorganization Events.


 


(a) Reorganization Events.
In the event of:


 


(i) any reclassification,
statutory exchange, merger, amalgamation, scheme of arrangement, consolidation or other similar business combination of the Company with
or into another Person, in each case, pursuant to which at least a majority of the total voting power of the Voting Shares of the Company
is changed or converted into, or exchanged for, cash, securities or other property of the Company or another Person;


 


(ii) any sale, transfer,
lease or conveyance to another Person of all or a majority of the property and assets of the Company, in each case pursuant to which
the Common Shares are converted into cash, securities or other property; or


 


(iii) any statutory
exchange of securities of the Company with another Person (other than in connection with a merger or acquisition) or reclassification,
recapitalization or reorganization of the Common Shares into other securities;


 






    22 


     


    

 


other than, in each case, any
such transaction that constitutes a Fundamental Change, with respect to which, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 9
shall apply (each of which is referred to as a “Reorganization Event”), each Series A Preferred Share outstanding
immediately prior to such Reorganization Event will, without the consent of the Holders and subject to Section 12(d) and
Section 13(b), remain outstanding but shall become convertible into, out of funds legally available therefor, the number,
kind and amount of securities, cash and other property (the “Exchange Property”) (without any interest on such Exchange
Property and without any right to dividends or distribution on such Exchange Property which have a record date that is prior to the applicable
Conversion Date) that the Holder of such Series A Preferred Share would have received in such Reorganization Event had such Holder
converted its Series A Preferred Shares into the applicable number of Common Shares immediately prior to the effective date of the
Reorganization Event using the Conversion Price applicable immediately prior to the effective date of the Reorganization Event and the
Liquidation Preference applicable at the time of such subsequent conversion; provided that the foregoing shall not apply if such
Holder is a Person with which the Company consolidated or into which the Company amalgamated or merged or which amalgamated with or merged
into the Company or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (any such Person, a “Constituent Person”),
or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person, to the extent such Reorganization Event provides for different treatment of Common Shares held
by such Constituent Persons or such Affiliate thereof. If the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such
Reorganization Event is not the same for each Common Share held immediately prior to such Reorganization Event by a Person (other than
a Constituent Person or an Affiliate thereof), then for the purpose of this Section 12(a), the kind and amount of securities,
cash and other property receivable upon conversion following such Reorganization Event will be deemed to be the weighted average of the
types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Shares.


 


(b) Successive Reorganization
Events. The above provisions of this Section 12 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events and the provisions
of Section 11 shall apply to any Capital Shares received by the holders of the Common Shares in any such Reorganization Event.


 


(c) Reorganization Event Notice.
The Company (or any successor) shall, no less than thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated effective date of any Reorganization Event,
provide written notice to the Holders of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property
that constitutes the Exchange Property. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 12.


 


(d) Reorganization Event Agreements.
The Company shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Reorganization Event unless (i) such agreement provides
for or does not interfere with or prevent (as applicable) conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares into the Exchange Property
in a manner that is consistent with and gives effect to this Section 12, and (ii) to the extent that the Company is not the
surviving corporation in such Reorganization Event or will be dissolved in connection with such Reorganization Event, proper provision
shall be made in the agreements governing such Reorganization Event for the conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares into Capital
Shares of the Person surviving such Reorganization Event or such other continuing entity in such Reorganization Event.


 


Section
13. Voting Rights.


 


(a) General. Except as
provided in Sections 13(b) and 13(c), Holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to vote as a single
class with the holders of the Common Shares and the holders of any other class or series of Capital Shares of the Company then entitled
to vote with the Common Shares on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of Common Shares (and, if applicable, holders of any
other class or series of Capital Shares of the Company). Each Holder shall be entitled to the number of votes equal to the product of
(i) the largest number of whole Common Shares into which all Series A Preferred Shares could be converted pursuant to Section 6
multiplied by (ii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of Series A Preferred Shares held by such Holder and the
denominator of which is the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Shares, in each case, at and calculated
as of the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote or consent on such matters or, if no such record date is
established, at and as of the date such vote or consent is taken or any written consent of shareholders is first executed; provided
that in no event shall the Series A Preferred Shares, or Common Shares received by such Holders on conversion of Series A Preferred
Shares or as Dividends with respect to Series A Preferred Shares, be entitled to vote in excess of 9.9% of the aggregate voting power
of the then-outstanding Common Shares on an as-converted basis or of the Voting Shares.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon transfer
of a Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares to an unaffiliated third party, the voting limitation will not apply to the transferee
third party unless such transferee shall affirmatively elect to be limited in the same manner as the Holder transferor. The Holders shall
be entitled to notice of any meeting of holders of Common Shares in accordance with the Bye-Laws.


 






    23 


     


    

 


(b) Adverse Changes. The
affirmative vote of the Holders, voting as a separate class, of (x) at least a majority of the Series A Preferred Shares outstanding
at such time, if given in person or by proxy, at any meeting called for the purpose or (y) at least three-fourths of the Series A
Preferred Shares outstanding at such time, if given by written consent, will be necessary for effecting or validating any of the following
actions, whether or not such approval is required pursuant to the Act:


 


(i) any amendment,
alteration or repeal (whether by merger, amalgamation, scheme of arrangement, consolidation or otherwise) of any provision of the Memorandum
of Association, the Bye-Laws or this Certificate of Designations that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect any of the rights,
preferences or privileges of the Series A Preferred Shares;


 


(ii) any amendment
or alteration (whether by merger, amalgamation, scheme of arrangement, consolidation or otherwise) of, or any supplement (whether by
a certificate of designations or otherwise) to, the Memorandum of Association, the Bye-Laws or any provision thereof, or any other action
to authorize or create, or increase the number of authorized or issued shares of, or any securities convertible into shares of, or reclassify
any security into, or issue, any class or series of Capital Shares of the Company ranking senior to or pari passu with the Series A
Preferred Shares as to dividend rights or rights on the distribution of assets on any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of the affairs of the Company; or


 


(iii) any issuance
of additional Series A Preferred Shares, other than in payment of Dividends on the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares;


 


provided, however,
(A) that, with respect to the occurrence of any of the events set forth in clause (i) above, so long as (1) Series A Preferred Shares
remain outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged, or (2) the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares receive equity
securities with rights, preferences, privileges and voting power substantially the same as those of the Series A Preferred Shares,
then the occurrence of such event shall not be deemed to adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of the
Series A Preferred Shares, and in such case such holders shall not have voting rights under this Section 13(b) with respect
to the occurrence of any of the events set forth in clause (i) above and (B) that the authorization or creation of, or the increase in
the number of authorized or issued shares of, or any securities convertible into shares of, or the reclassification of any security (other
than the Series A Preferred Shares) into, or the issuance of, Junior Shares will not require the vote of the holders of the Series A
Preferred Shares.


 


(c) Each Holder of Series A
Preferred Shares will have one vote per share on any matter on which Holders of Series A Preferred Shares are entitled to vote separately
as a class, whether at a meeting or by written consent.


 


(d) For the avoidance of doubt
and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Memorandum of Association or Bye-Laws of the Company, the Holders of Series A
Preferred Shares shall have the exclusive consent and voting rights set forth in Sections 13(b) and 13(c) and may
take action or consent to any action with respect to such rights without a meeting by delivering a consent in writing or by electronic
transmission of the Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares entitled to cast not less than three-fourths of the Series A Preferred
Shares outstanding at such time.


 






    24 


     


    

 


Section
14. Preemptive Rights. The Holders shall not have any preemptive rights.


 


Section
15. Term. Except as expressly provided in this Certificate of Designations, the Series A Preferred Shares shall not
be redeemable or otherwise mature and the term of the Series A Preferred Shares shall be perpetual.


 


Section
16. Creation of Capital Shares. Subject to Section 13(b)(ii) and the Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws,
the Board, or any duly authorized committee thereof, without the vote of the Holders, may authorize and issue additional Capital Shares
of the Company.


 


Section
17. No Sinking Fund. Series A Preferred Shares shall not be subject to or entitled to the operation of a retirement
or sinking fund.


 


Section
18. Transfer Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar and Paying Agent. The duly appointed Transfer Agent, Conversion Agent,
Registrar and paying agent for the Series A Preferred Shares shall be Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc. The Company may,
in its sole discretion, appoint any other Person to serve as Transfer Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar or paying agent for the Series A
Preferred Shares and thereafter may remove or replace Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc. or such other Person at any time. Upon
any such appointment or removal, the Company shall send notice thereof to the Holders.


 


Section
19. Replacement Certificates.


 


(a) Mutilated, Destroyed, Stolen
and Lost Certificates. If physical certificates evidencing the Series A Preferred Shares are issued, the Company shall replace
any mutilated certificate at the Holder’s expense upon surrender of that certificate to the Transfer Agent. The Company shall replace
certificates that become destroyed, stolen or lost at the Holder’s expense upon delivery to the Company and the Transfer Agent
of satisfactory evidence that the certificate has been destroyed, stolen or lost, together with any indemnity that may be required by
the Transfer Agent and the Company.


 


(b) Certificates Following
Conversion. If physical certificates representing the Series A Preferred Shares are issued, the Company shall not be required
to issue replacement certificates representing Series A Preferred Shares on or after the Conversion Date applicable to such shares
(except if any certificate for Series A Preferred Shares shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall, at its
expense, execute and deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder of the certificate so surrendered a new certificate for the Series A
Preferred Shares not converted). In place of the delivery of a replacement certificate following the applicable Conversion Date, the
Transfer Agent, upon receipt of the satisfactory evidence and indemnity described in clause (a) above, shall deliver certificates representing
the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of such Series A Preferred Shares formerly evidenced by the physical certificate.


 


Section
20. Taxes.


 


(a) Transfer Taxes. The
Company shall pay any and all stock transfer, documentary, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or
delivery of Series A Preferred Shares or Common Shares or other securities issued on account of Series A Preferred Shares pursuant
hereto or certificates representing such shares or securities. However, in the case of conversion of Series A Preferred Shares,
the Company shall not be required to pay any such tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery
of Series A Preferred Shares, Common Shares or other securities to a Beneficial Owner other than the Beneficial Owner of the Series A
Preferred Shares immediately prior to such conversion, and shall not be required to make any such issuance, delivery or payment unless
and until the Person otherwise entitled to such issuance, delivery or payment has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or has
established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid or is not payable.


 






    25 


     


    

 


(b) Withholding. All payments
and distributions (or deemed distributions) on the Series A Preferred Shares (and on the Common Shares received upon their conversion)
shall be subject to withholding and backup withholding of taxes to the extent required by law, subject to applicable exemptions, and
amounts withheld, if any, shall be treated as received by the Holders.


 


Section
21. Notices. All notices referred to herein shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, all notices hereunder
shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of receipt thereof or three (3) Business Days after the mailing thereof if sent by
registered or certified mail with postage prepaid, or by private courier service addressed: (i) if to the Company, to its office at James
River Group Holdings, Ltd., Wellesley House, 2nd Floor, 90 Pitts Bay Road, Pembroke HM 08 Bermuda (Attention: Chief Executive Officer),
(ii) if to any Holder, to such Holder at the address of such Holder as listed in the Register of Members or (iii) to such other address
as the Company or any such Holder, as the case may be, shall have designated by notice similarly given.


 


Section
22. Facts Ascertainable. When the terms of this Certificate of Designations refers to a specific agreement or other document
to determine the meaning or operation of a provision hereof, the Secretary of the Company shall maintain a copy of such agreement or
document at the principal executive offices of the Company and a copy thereof shall be provided free of charge to any Holder who makes
a request therefor; provided that the Secretary of the Company is provided copies upon execution or upon request. The Secretary
of the Company shall also maintain a written record of the Issuance Date, the number of Series A Preferred Shares issued to a Holder
and the date of each such issuance, and shall furnish such written record free of charge to any Holder who makes a request therefor.


 


Section
23. Waiver. Notwithstanding any provision in this Certificate of Designations to the contrary, any provision contained
herein and any right of the Holders of Series A Preferred Shares granted hereunder may be waived as to all Series A Preferred
Shares (and the Holders thereof) upon the vote or written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Shares
then outstanding.


 


Section
24. Severability. If any term of the Series A Preferred Shares set forth herein is invalid, unlawful or incapable
of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, all other terms set forth herein which can be given effect without the
invalid, unlawful or unenforceable term will, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no term herein set forth will be deemed
dependent upon any other such term unless so expressed herein.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT


 


This REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”)
is entered into as of [•], 2022, by and among James River Group Holdings, Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company (the “Company”),
and GPC Partners Investments (Thames) LP, a limited partnership organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands ( the “Investor”).
Capitalized terms that are used but not defined elsewhere herein are defined in Exhibit A.


 


WHEREAS, the Company and the Investor are parties
to the Investment Agreement, dated as of February 24, 2022 (as amended from time to time, the “Investment Agreement”),
pursuant to which the Company is selling to the Investor, and the Investor is purchasing from the Company, Series A Convertible Preferred
Shares (the “Series A Preferred Shares”), which are convertible into Common Shares; and


 


WHEREAS, as a condition to the obligations of
the Company and the Investor under the Investment Agreement, the Company and the Investor are entering into this Agreement for the purpose
of granting certain registration and other rights to the Investor.


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual
covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this
Agreement hereby agree as follows:





 


Article
I



Resale Shelf Registration


 


Section 1.1           
Resale Shelf Registration Statement. No later than the
expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Company shall, at its cost, file with the SEC a registration statement covering the sale or distribution
from time to time by the Holders, on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act, of all of the Registrable
Securities on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, then
such registration shall be on another appropriate form and shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale
by the Holders in accordance with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the Investor) (the “Resale Shelf Registration
Statement”) and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement
to be declared effective by the SEC no later than the expiration of the Lock-Up Period (it being agreed that the Resale Shelf Registration
Statement shall be an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement as such term is defined in Rule 405 that shall become effective upon filing
with the SEC pursuant to Rule 462(e) if Rule 462(e) is available to the Company).


 


Section 1.2           
Effectiveness Period; Certain Representations.


 


(a)              
Once declared effective, the Company shall, subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be continuously effective and usable by the Holders for sales
and distributions of the Registrable Securities until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities (the “Effectiveness
Period”).


 


(b)              
 Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide that (i) any
Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in
all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Shelf Registration Statement and any
amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an 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 (iii) any prospectus forming part of any
Shelf Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus (as amended or supplemented from time to time), does not include
an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. In order to assist the Company in complying with its obligations in Sections
1.2(b), the Holders shall comply with their obligations set forth in Section 2.4.


 







    1 


     


    

 


Section 1.3           
Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement. If any Shelf Registration
Statement ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period, the Company shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, cause such Shelf Registration Statement to again
become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf
Registration Statement), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, amend such Shelf
Registration Statement in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such
Shelf Registration Statement or file an additional registration statement (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”)
for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time
to time by the Holders thereof of all securities that are Registrable Securities as of the time of such filing. If a Subsequent Shelf
Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (a) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration
Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed
that the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement as such term is defined in Rule 405
that shall become effective upon filing with the SEC pursuant to Rule 462(e) if Rule 462(e) is available to the Company) and (b) keep
such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and usable by the Holders for sales and distributions of Registrable
Securities until the end of the Effectiveness Period. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be a registration statement
on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall
be on another appropriate form and shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by the Holders in accordance
with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the Holders.


 


Section 1.4           
Supplements and Amendments. The Company shall supplement
and amend any Shelf Registration Statement if required by the Securities Act, or to the extent the Company does not reasonably object,
as reasonably requested in writing by the Holders with respect to information relating to the applicable Holder, and to furnish to the
Holders that are covered under such Shelf Registration Statement copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after its being
used or filed with the SEC in such amounts as they may reasonably request.


 


Section 1.5           
Subsequent Holder Notice. If a Person entitled to the benefits of this Agreement becomes a Holder of Registrable Securities
after a Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, the Company shall, as promptly as is reasonably practicable
following delivery of written notice to the Company of such Person becoming a Holder and requesting for its name to be included as a
selling securityholder in the prospectus related to the Shelf Registration Statement:


 


(a)              
if required and permitted by applicable law, file with the SEC a supplement to the related prospectus or a post-effective amendment
to the Shelf Registration Statement so that such Holder is named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and
the related prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver a prospectus to purchasers of the Registrable Securities
in accordance with applicable law; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to file more than one post-effective
amendment or a supplement to the related prospectus for such purpose in any 180-day period;


 


(b)              
if, pursuant to Section 1.5(a), the Company shall have filed a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement
that is not automatically effective, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to become effective
under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable; and


 


(c)              
notify such Holder as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective

Section 1.6           
Underwritten Offering.


 


(a)              
Subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement and any restrictions on transfer in the Company Charter Documents
and the Investment Agreement, at any time that any Shelf Registration Statement is effective, one or more of the Holders (the “Demand
Holders”) may deliver a written notice to the Company (the “Underwritten Offering Notice”) specifying that
the sale of some or all of the Registrable Securities subject to the Shelf Registration Statement is intended to be conducted through
an underwritten offering (the “Underwritten Offering”); provided, however, that the Holders of Registrable
Securities may not, without the Company’s prior written consent, (i) demand any such transaction the anticipated gross proceeds
of which shall be less than $50,000,000, (ii) effect (A) more than two (2) Underwritten Offerings in the aggregate within any twelve
(12) month period or (B) more than one (1) Underwritten Offering during any 90-day period, or (iii) effect an Underwritten Offering within
the period commencing fifteen (15) calendar days (or if such day is not a trading day, then commencing the immediately prior trading
day) prior to and ending two (2) Business Days following the Company’s scheduled earnings release date for any fiscal quarter or
year (or such shorter period as is the Company’s customary “blackout window” applicable to directors and officers).
Upon receipt of a request for an Underwritten Offering, the Company shall notify all Holders of such request and shall include in such
Underwritten Offering all shares requested to be sold by Holders responding to such notice.


 


(b)              
In the event of an Underwritten Offering, the Demand Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities participating in an Underwritten
Offering shall select the managing underwriter(s) (which shall consist of one or more nationally recognized investment banks) to administer
the Underwritten Offering; provided, that the choice of such managing underwriter(s) shall be subject to the consent of the Company,
which is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating
in an Underwritten Offering will enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters
selected for such offering.


 


(c)              
If the managing underwriter or underwriters advise the Company and the Demand Holders that in its or their good faith opinion
the number of Registrable Securities (including, without limitation, securities proposed to be included by the Company other holders
of securities entitled to include securities in such Registration Statement pursuant to piggyback registration rights, if applicable)
exceeds the number of securities which can be sold in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to this Section 1.6 in light of market
conditions or is such so as to adversely affect the success of such offering, the Company will include in such offering only such number
of securities that can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, which securities will be so included in
the following order of priority: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demand Holders that have requested to participate in such
Underwritten Offering, allocated pro rata among such Demand Holders on the basis of the percentage of the Registrable Securities then-owned
by such Holders, (ii) second, to any Holders that have requested to participate in such Underwritten Offering, other than Demand Holders,
pro rata among such Holders on the basis of the percentage of the Registrable Securities then owned by such Holders, (iii) third, the
securities of the Company that the Company desires to participate in such Underwritten Offering, and (iv) the securities requested to
participate in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to any other registration rights granted by the Company.


 


Section 1.7           
Take-Down Notice. Subject to the other applicable provisions
of this Agreement and any restrictions on transfer in the Company Charter Documents and the Investment Agreement, at any time that any
Shelf Registration Statement is effective, if a Holder delivers a notice to the Company (a “Take-Down Notice”) stating
that it intends to effect a sale or distribution (a “Shelf Offering”) of all or part of its Registrable Securities
included by it on any Shelf Registration Statement, other than pursuant to an Underwritten Offering, which shall be implemented in accordance
with Section 1.6, and stating the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such Shelf Offering, then, subject to the
other applicable provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall promptly amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement as may
be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be sold and distributed pursuant to the Shelf Offering.


 







    3 


     


    

 


Section 1.8           
Piggyback Registration.


 


(a)              
If at any time, the Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering following
the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, or the Company proposes a shelf take-down of Common Shares or securities convertible into, or exchangeable
or exercisable for, Common Shares, whether or not for sale for its own account following the expiration of the Lock-Up Period (other
than a registration statement (i) on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any successor forms thereto or (ii) filed to effectuate an exchange offer
or any merger or acquisition, amalgamation, scheme of arrangement, employee benefit, equity compensation, incentive or dividend reinvestment
plan or a Block Trade), then the Company shall give written notice of such filing or offering, which notice shall be given, to the extent
reasonably practicable, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the filing or launch date (the “Piggyback Notice”)
to each of the Holders of Registrable Securities (except in the case of an offering that is an “overnight offering”, in which
case such notice must be given no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the filing or launch date). The Piggyback Notice shall
offer such Holders the opportunity to include (or cause to be included) in such registration statement or offering the number of Registrable
Securities as each such Holder may request (each, a “Piggyback Registration Statement”). Subject to Section 1.8(b),
the Company shall include in each Piggyback Registration Statement all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received
written requests for inclusion therein (each a “Piggyback Request”) promptly following delivery of the Piggyback Notice
but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the filing date of a Piggyback Registration Statement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, 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, the Company shall determine for any reason not to proceed with the proposed registration of
the securities to be sold by it, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each Holder that requested
to participate in an offering initiated by the Company, and thereupon shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable
Securities in connection with such registration.


 


(b)              
If any of the securities to be registered pursuant to the registration giving rise to the rights under this Section 1.8
are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing underwriter or
underwriters selected by the Company of a proposed underwritten offering to permit Holders of Registrable Securities who have timely
submitted a Piggyback Request in connection with such offering to include in such offering all Registrable Securities included in each
Holder’s Piggyback Request on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as any other shares, if any, of the Company included
in the offering, and any Holders exercising piggyback rights will enter into an underwriting agreement with the managing underwriters
and the Company setting forth such terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of such underwritten
offering advise the Company in writing that in its or their good faith opinion the number of securities exceeds the number of securities
which can be sold in such offering in light of market conditions or is such so as to adversely affect the success of such offering, the
Company will include in such offering only such number of securities that can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of
the offering, which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the securities proposed to be sold
by the Company for its own account; (ii) second, the Registrable Securities of the Holders that have requested to participate in such
underwritten offering, allocated pro rata among such Holders on the basis of the percentage of the Registrable Securities then-owned
by such Holders; (iii) third, any other securities of the Company that have been requested to be included in such offering. For the avoidance
of doubt, a piggyback sale shall not count against the limitations in Section 1.6(a).


 


Section 1.9           
“Market Stand-off” Agreement. The Holders shall not sell, transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option
for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale with respect to, any Common
Shares (or other securities of the Company) held by the Holders (other than the Common Shares included in the registration) for a period
specified by the representatives of the managing underwriter or underwriters of Common Shares (or other securities of the Company convertible
into Common Shares) not to exceed five (5) days prior and ninety (90) days following any registered public sale of securities by the
Company in which such Holder participates in accordance with this Article II, except (i) in the case of a private sale or distribution,
with the transferee agreeing in writing to be subject to the restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 1.9, and (ii)
as expressly permitted by such lock-up agreement or in the event the managing underwriter or underwriters otherwise agree by written
consent. Each Holder shall also execute and deliver any “lock-up” agreement reasonably requested by the managing underwriter
or underwriters of the Company in connection with an offering.

not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subsection or (ii) take any action that would subject it to general service of process
in any such jurisdictions;


 


(h)

(m)            
cooperate with the Holders and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of Registrable Securities and their
respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA, including the use of commercially reasonable efforts
to obtain FINRA’s pre-clearance or pre-approval of the registration statement and applicable prospectus upon filing with the SEC;
and


 


(n)              
as promptly as is reasonably practicable notify the Holders (i) when the prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment has been filed and, with respect to such registration statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective,
(ii) of any request by the SEC or other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to such registration statement
or related prospectus or to amend or to supplement such prospectus or for additional information, (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of

Each
Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Sections 2.1(f),
2.1(n)(ii) or 2.1(n)(iii), such Holder shall discontinue disposition of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement or the related prospectus until receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus, which supplement or amendment
shall, subject to Section 2.2, be prepared and furnished as soon as reasonably practicable, or until such Holder is advised in
writing by the Company that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed, and have received copies of any amended or supplemented
prospectus or any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, by reference in such prospectus
(such period during which disposition is discontinued being an “Interruption Period”) and, if requested by the Company
in writing, such Holder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to return to the Company all copies then in their possession, of the
prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such request. As soon as is reasonably practicable after the
Company has determined that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed, the Company will promptly notify the Holders thereof.
In the event the Company invokes an Interruption Period hereunder and in the reasonable discretion of the Company the need for the Company
to continue the Interruption Period ceases for any reason, the Company shall provide written notice, as soon as is reasonably practicable,
to the Holders that such Interruption Period is no longer applicable.

Suspension. (a) The
Company shall be entitled, for a period of time not to exceed thirty (30) calendar days in any three-month period, or an aggregate

to file and not to cause the effectiveness of any registration statement covering any Registrable Securities, (y) suspend the use of
any prospectus and registration statement covering any Registrable Securities, and (z) require the Holders of Registrable Securities
to suspend any offerings or sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement, if the Company delivers to the Holders
a certificate signed by an executive officer certifying that such registration and offering would (i) require the Company to make an
Adverse Disclosure or (ii) materially interfere with any bona fide material financing, acquisition, disposition or other similar material
transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries then under consideration, and specifying in reasonable detail the nature
of the event giving rise to such suspension. Each Holder shall keep confidential any communications received by it from the Company regarding
the suspension, except as required by applicable law. If the Company defers any registration of Registrable Securities in response to
a Underwritten Offering Notice, or requires the Holders to suspend any Underwritten Offering, the Holders shall be entitled to withdraw
such Underwritten Offering Notice and if they do so, such request shall not be treated for any purpose as the delivery of an Underwritten
Offering Notice pursuant to Section 1.6.


 


Section 2.3           
Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred
in connection with any registration shall be borne by the Company, provided that each Holder of Registrable Securities participating
in an offering shall pay all applicable underwriting discounts and commissions, brokers’ commissions and stock transfer taxes,
if any, on the Registrable Securities sold by such Holder.

and their respective Affiliates as the Company may reasonably request and as shall be required by applicable law to enable the Company
to prepare or amend such registration statement, any related prospectus and any other documents related to such offering covering the
applicable Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders and to maintain the currency and effectiveness thereof;


 


(b)

to examine such documents and records and will supply in a timely manner any information as they may be reasonably requested to provide
in connection with the offering or other distribution of Registrable Securities by such Holder or Holders and (ii) execute, deliver and
perform under any agreements and instruments reasonably requested by the Company or its representatives to effectuate such registered
offering, including opinions of counsel and questionnaires.

make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after the date
of this Agreement as is necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144; and


 


(b)              
so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to the Holder upon written request a written statement by the Company
as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

to facilitate such in-kind distribution in the manner reasonably requested.

by such a registration, each Person controlling the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
(collectively, the “Holder Indemnified Parties”), from and against all Losses (or actions in respect thereof) to the
extent arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration
statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document, in each case related
to such registration statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they
were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each of the Holder Indemnified Parties for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket
legal expenses and any other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred in connection with investigating, defending
or, subject to the last sentence of this Section 3.2, settling any such Losses or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each
case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission)
is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information regarding such Holder furnished to the Company by such Holder; provided, however,
that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 3.2 payable by any Holder exceed an amount equal to the gross proceeds
(net of any underwriting commissions and discounts, but before deducting other expenses) received by such Holder in respect of the Registrable
Securities sold pursuant to the registration statement. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.2 shall not apply
to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written
consent of the applicable Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).


 


Section 3.3           
Notification. If any Person shall be entitled to indemnification
under this Article III (each, an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to the
party required to provide indemnification (each, an “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim or of the commencement of any
proceeding as to which indemnity is sought. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to the
Indemnified Party as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party of such claim
or proceeding, to assume, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, the defense of any such claim or litigation, with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election to assume
the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party will not (so long as it shall continue to have the right to defend, contest, litigate and
settle the matter in question in accordance with this paragraph) be liable to such Indemnified Party hereunder for any legal expenses
and other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however,
that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ one (1) separate counsel in any such claim or litigation, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying Party shall have failed within a reasonable
period of time to assume such defense and the Indemnified Party is or would reasonably be expected to be materially prejudiced by such
delay; provided, further, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such claim or proceeding
or separate but substantially similar or related claims or proceedings in the same jurisdiction, arising out of the same general allegations
or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at
any time for all of the Indemnified Parties, or for fees and expenses that are not reasonable. The failure of any Indemnified Party to
give notice as provided herein shall relieve an Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article III only to the extent
that the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial or harmful to such Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action.
No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the prior written consent of each Indemnified
Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which
does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from
all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. An Indemnifying Party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense
of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such Indemnifying
Party with respect to such claim.


 






    10 


     


    

 


Section 3.4           
Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this
Article III is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party, other than pursuant to its
terms, with respect to any Losses or action referred to therein, then, subject to the limitations contained in this Article III,
the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying
Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted
in such Losses or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the
one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any 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 (or omitted) by, or relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party or such Indemnified Party, and the parties’
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent any such action, statement or omission. The Company
and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.4 was determined solely
upon pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 3.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount any Holder will be obligated
to contribute pursuant to this Section 3.4 will be limited to an amount equal to the gross proceeds (net of any underwriting commissions
and discounts, but before deducting other expenses) received by such Holder in respect of the Registrable Securities sold pursuant to
the registration statement which gives rise to such obligation to contribute. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within
the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution or indemnification from any Person who was not
also guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

compliance by the other party with any of the agreements contained herein applicable to such party or, except as otherwise provided herein,
waive any of such party’s conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the parties hereto in exercising any
right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall
be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

Section 5.4           
Counterparts; Electronic Signature. This Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts, all of which shall
be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties
and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. This Agreement may be executed
by facsimile, by any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic
Signatures and Records Act, or other Requirements of Law, e.g., www.docusign.com or by .pdf signature by any party and such signature
shall be deemed binding for all purposes hereof without delivery of an original signature being thereafter required.


 


Section 5.5           
Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement,
and the other Transaction Documents, constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings,
both written and oral, among the parties and their Affiliates, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof,

hereto and their permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder.


 


Section 5.6           
Governing Law; Jurisdiction.


 


(a)              
This Agreement and all matters, claims or Actions (whether at law, in equity, in Contract, in tort or otherwise) based upon, arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (collectively, the “Relevant
Matters”), shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, regardless of the laws
that might otherwise govern under any applicable conflict of Laws principles.


 


(b)              
All Actions arising out of or relating to any Relevant Matter (“Actions”) shall be heard and determined in
any state or federal court located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts in any such Action and irrevocably waive the defense of an inconvenient
forum or lack of jurisdiction to the maintenance of any such Action. The consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section
5.6 shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of New York and shall have no effect for any purpose
except as provided in this Section 5.6 and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto. Each
party hereto agrees that service of process upon such party in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective
if notice is given by overnight courier at the address set forth in Section 5.9 of this Agreement. The parties hereto hereby waive any
right to stay or dismiss any action or proceeding in connection with any Relevant Matter brought before the foregoing courts on the basis
of (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason or that it or any of
its property is immune from the above-described legal process, (ii) that such action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum,
that venue for the action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts, or (iii) any other
defense that would hinder or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which any party hereto is entitled pursuant to
any final judgment of any court having jurisdiction. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive
and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law; provided, however,
that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from,
a final trial court judgment.


 






    13 


     


    

 


Section 5.7           
Specific Enforcement. The parties acknowledge and agree
that (a) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to enforce specifically
the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 5.6 without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition
to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and (b) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of
this Agreement and without that right, neither the Company nor the Investor would have entered into this Agreement. The parties hereto
agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, and
agree not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the parties otherwise have an adequate
remedy at law. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this
Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 5.7 shall not
be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.


 


Section 5.8           
Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY RELEVANT MATTER IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND
THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE
TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY RELEVANT MATTER. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES
AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH
OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS
OF SUCH WAIVER, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS,
THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5.8..
