		5.2.5.	The Investors agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 5.2, of a legend on any of the Shares in the following form:


 


[NEITHER] THIS SECURITY [NOR
THE SECURIITES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS EXERCISABLE] HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES
COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED
OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR
IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS. THIS SECURITY [AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS SECURITY] MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN
ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED
IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.


 


The Company acknowledges and agrees
that an Investor may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security
interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)
under the Securities Act and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Investor may transfer pledged or secured any of the
Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal
opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall
be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Investor’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation
as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities, including,

		5.2.6.	Certificates evidencing the Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 5.2.5 hereof), (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) and the Investor shall provide the Company with a “no action” letter from the SEC or a legal opinion confirming the same. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to VStock Transfer LLC, and thereafter any successor transfer agent of the Company (the “Transfer Agent”) or the Investor if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder, or if requested by an Investor, respectively. If all or a portion of a Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Warrants Shares, then such Ordinary Shares and the Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following such time as the legend is no longer required under this Section 5.2.6, it will, no later than the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days on which the Trading Market is open for trading and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) following the delivery by an Investor to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing Ordinary Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such date, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Investor a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 5. Certificates for Securities subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Investor by crediting the account of the Investor’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by such Investor. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Ordinary Shares as in effect on the date of delivery of a certificate representing Ordinary Shares issued with a restrictive legend.


 


		6.	Miscellaneous

		8.	Registration

Securities it wishes to include in the Resale Registration Statement (the “Piggyback Rights”). The Piggyback Rights shall
not be subject to any underwriter or placement agent cutback. If no Resale Registration Statement is filed by the time on which the Company
is becoming shelf eligible, then within 30 days of the Company becoming shelf eligible (and assuming no Resale Registration Statement
has been filed during those 30 days) the Company shall prepare and file a registration statement with the Commission (the “Registration
Statement”) covering the Warrant Shares, upon the effective date of which, the Piggyback Rights shall expire, and shall use best
efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable.
