In the event Optionee’s service as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) is terminated without “Cause” (as hereinafter

of the Company, or any of the Company’s current or prospective customers, suppliers vendors or other third parties with which such entity
does business; (ii) the Optionee’s commission of (A) a felony or (B) any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, deceit, dishonesty or
fraud; (iii) the Optionee’s failure to perform his assigned duties and responsibilities to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company

Optionee’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or insubordination with respect to the Company or any affiliate of the Company; or (v)
the Optionee’s material violation of any provision of any agreement(s) between the Optionee and the Company relating to noncompetition,
nondisclosure and/or assignment of inventions.

This Option shall be deemed exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by such aggregate
Exercise Price. The minimum number of Option Shares with respect to which this Option may be exercised at any one time shall be 100,000

shall have delivered to the Company, at the cost of the Optionee, an opinion of counsel that shall be in form, substance and scope customary
for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions to the effect that the Securities to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred

may require compliance with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (iii)
neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register such the Securities under the Securities Act or any state
securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder (in each case).

(g) Legends.
The Optionee understand that the Securities, until such time as they have been registered under the Securities Act or may be sold pursuant
to Rule 144 or Regulation S, the Securities may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order
may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such Securities):


 


“THE
ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS OPTION AND SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON ITS EXERCISE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD,
TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE COMPANY), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT.”


 


The
legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the Optionee of any Securities
upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required by applicable state securities laws, (a) the Securities are registered for sale
under an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation
S without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, or (b) the Optionee
provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions,
to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Securities may be made without registration under the Securities Act, which opinion
shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected. Optionee agrees to sell all Securities, including those represented
by a certificate(s) from which the legend has been removed, in compliance with applicable prospectus delivery requirements, if any.


 


2.7
Tax Obligations.


 


(A)
Withholding Taxes. The Optionee shall make appropriate arrangements with the Company for the satisfaction of all applicable Federal,
state, local, and foreign income taxes, employment tax, and any other taxes that are due as a result of the Option exercise. With the
Company’s consent, these arrangements may include withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to the Optionee pursuant to
the exercise of this Option. The Company may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse to deliver Shares if such withholding amounts are
not delivered at the time of exercise.


 






    	4



     


    

 


2.8 Stock
Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while the Option is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes
a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of the Company’s Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding
shares of its Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any
shares of capital stock of the Company, then the number of Option Shares shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event. Any adjustment made
pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive
such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination
or re-classification.


 


2.9
Restrictions on Resale. The Optionee shall not sell any Shares at a time when the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale.


 


2.10
Lock-Up Agreement. In connection with any underwritten public offering of Shares made by the Company pursuant to a registration
statement filed under the Securities Act, the Optionee shall not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, hypothecate, grant any option
to purchase or make any short sale of, or otherwise dispose of any Shares (including but not limited to Shares subject to this Option)
or any rights to acquire Shares of the Company for such period beginning on the date of filing of such registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and ending at the time as may be established by the underwriters for such public offering; provided,
