(b)Authorization of Agreement and
Shares. This Agreement, its execution and the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder, have been duly authorized
by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. The Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued, delivered
and paid for in the manner set forth in this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.


 


(c)Furnishing of Information.
The Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions and file within the applicable grace periods) all reports required to
be filed by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or take any
such action as the Investor may reasonably request, to the extent required from time to time to enable the Investor to sell the
Shares in accordance with the requirements of Rule 144.


 


(d)Listing, Trading and Maintenance
Requirements. The Company has not acted to terminate the registration of the Common Stock as a class under Section 12(b) of
the Exchange Act, nor has the Company received any notification that the SEC is contemplating such a termination, and the Common
Stock has not been suspended from trading on the NYSE MKT nor threatened with such a suspension by the SEC or the NYSE MKT. As
soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing, the Company covenants to file an additional listing application with the
NYSE MKT covering all of the Shares.


 


(e)Waiver of Standstill. The
Company hereby waives any rights it may have pursuant to provision 3(e) (the “Standstill”) of that certain Common
Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 11, 2014, between and among the Company, the Investor and certain other parties (the
“June Common Stock Purchase Agreement”), to prevent the Investor from acquiring the Shares to be issued hereunder.
It is understood that the Standstill otherwise remains in full force and effect.


 


(f)Amendment of Rights Plan.
The Company agrees to amend its existing shareholder rights plan, dated as of March 22, 1999, between the Company and American
Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as rights agent, as amended by the first amendment dated as of March 12, 2009 (the “Rights
Plan”) so that acquisition of the Shares by the Investor does not activate any rights issued to the Company’s shareholders
pursuant to the Rights Plan.


 


(g)Outstanding Preemption Rights.
The Company has procured waivers or has fully complied with those certain preemption rights set forth in paragraph 5 of the June
Common Stock Purchase Agreement.


 


5.Registration Right.

registration rights as were granted to the Investor in the June Common Stock Purchase Agreement, except that with respect to the
Shares, the Company agrees to keep the Registration Statement and Prospectus (each as defined in the June Common Stock Purchase
Agreement) effective and current, respectively, until October 22, 2017, or if earlier, until such time as the number of Shares
remaining unsold may be sold by the Investor within 12 months in open market transactions under Rule 144.
