 WHEREAS: 
  
 A. In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement by and among the
parties hereto of even date herewith (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), the Company has agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, to issue and sell to the Investors secured

 B. To induce the Investors to execute and deliver the Securities Purchase
Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations there under, or any similar successor statute (collectively, the “Securities
Act”), and applicable state securities laws. 
  
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Investors hereby agree as follows:

  
 1. DEFINITIONS. 
  
 As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following
meanings: 
  
 (a) “Person” means a corporation,
a limited liability company, an association, a partnership, an organization, a business, an individual, a governmental or political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency. 
  
 (b) “Register,” “registered,” and “registration” refer to a registration
effected by preparing and filing one or more Registration Statements (as defined below) in compliance with the Securities Act and pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule providing for offering securities on a continuous
or delayed basis (“Rule 415”), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such Registration Statement(s) by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). 
  
 (c) “Registrable Securities” means the shares of Common
Stock issuable to the Investors upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Warrant Shares, as these terms are defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement. 







 (d) “Registration Statement” means a registration statement under the Securities Act
which covers the Registrable Securities. 
  
 2.
REGISTRATION. 
  
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file, no later than ninety (90) days from the date hereof (the “Scheduled Filing Deadline”), with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 or SB-2 (or, if the Company is then
eligible, on Form S-3) under the Securities Act (the “Initial Registration Statement”) for the resale by the Investors of the Registrable Securities, which includes at least 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock to be issued upon
conversion of the Convertible Debentures and 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company shall cause the Registration Statement to remain effective until the earlier of (i) all of the Registrable
Securities have been sold, or (ii) the date the Registrable Securities become eligible for sale without restriction under Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Prior to the filing of the Registration Statement
with the SEC, the Company shall furnish a copy of the Initial Registration Statement to the Investors for their review and comment. The Investors shall furnish comments on the Initial Registration Statement to the Company within twenty-four
(24) hours of the receipt thereof from the Company. 
  
 (b)
Effectiveness of the Initial Registration Statement. The Company shall use its best efforts (i) to have the Initial Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC no later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date
hereof (the “Scheduled Effective Deadline”) and (ii) to insure that the Initial Registration Statement and any subsequent Registration Statement remains in effect until all of the Registrable Securities have been sold, subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. It shall be an event of default hereunder if the Initial Registration Statement is not filed by the Scheduled Filling Deadline or declared effective by the SEC by the Scheduled Effective Deadline.

  
 (c) Failure to File or Obtain Effectiveness of the
Registration Statement. In the event the Registration Statement is not filed by the Scheduled Filing Deadline or is not declared effective by the SEC on or before the Scheduled Effective Deadline, or if after the Registration Statement has been
declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant to the Registration Statement (whether because of a failure to keep the Registration Statement effective, failure to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be made pursuant
to the Registration Statement, failure to register sufficient shares of Common Stock or otherwise then as partial relief for the damages to any holder of Registrable Securities by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the
underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies at law or in equity), the Company will pay as liquidated damages (the “Liquidated Damages”) to the holder, at the holder’s option,
either a cash amount or shares of the Company’s Common Stock within three (3) business days, after demand therefore, equal to two percent (2%) of the liquidated value of the Convertible Debentures outstanding as Liquidated Damages for
each thirty (30) day period after the Scheduled Filing Deadline or the Scheduled Effective Date as the case may be. 
  
 (d) Liquidated Damages. The Company and the Investor hereto acknowledge and agree that the sums payable under subsection 2(c) above shall
constitute liquidated damages 

  

 2 








 
and not penalties and are in addition to all other rights of the Investor, including the right to call a default. The parties further acknowledge that
(i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred is incapable or is difficult to precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified in such subsections bear a reasonable relationship to, and are not plainly or grossly disproportionate
to, the probable loss likely to be incurred in connection with any failure by the Company to obtain or maintain the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, (iii) one of the reasons for the Company and the Investor reaching an agreement as to
such amounts was the uncertainty and cost of litigation regarding the question of actual damages, and (iv) the Company and the Investor are sophisticated business parties and have been represented by sophisticated and able legal counsel and
negotiated this Agreement at arm’s length. 
  
 3. RELATED
OBLIGATIONS. 
  
 (a) The Company shall keep the Registration
Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 at all times until the earlier of (i) date on which the Investor shall have sold all the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, or (ii) the date the Registrable
Securities become eligible for sale without restriction under Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Registration Period”), which Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements
thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any 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, in light of the circumstances in which
they were made, not misleading. 
  
 (b) The Company shall prepare
and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424
promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the
disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or
sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement. In the case of amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of
the Company’s filing a report on Form 10-KSB, Form 10-QSB or Form 8-K or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company shall incorporate such report by reference
into the Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the SEC on the same day on which the Exchange Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement the Registration
Statement. 
  
 (c) The Company shall furnish to each Investor
whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement, without charge, (i) at least one (1) copy of such Registration Statement as declared effective by the SEC and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements
and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, all exhibits and each preliminary prospectus, (ii) ten (10) copies of the final prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto
(or such other number 

  

 3 








 
of copies as such Investor may reasonably request) and (iii) such other documents as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to
facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor. 
  
 (d) The Company shall use its best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions
in the United States as any Investor reasonably requests, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to
maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all
other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (w) make any
change to its articles of incorporation or by-laws, (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such
jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the
suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of
any proceeding for such purpose. 
  
 (e) As promptly as
practicable after becoming aware of such event or development, the Company shall notify each Investor in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an
untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event
shall such notice contain any material, nonpublic information), and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or
amendment to each Investor. The Company shall also promptly notify each Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective
amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to each Investor by facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness), (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement
or related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate. 
  
 (f) The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any
stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction within the United States of America and, if such an order or
suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its
receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose. 
  

 4 








 (g) At the reasonable request of any Investor, the Company shall furnish to such Investor, on the date of
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time on such dates as an Investor may reasonably request (i) a letter, dated such date, from the Company’s independent certified public accountants in form and
substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, and (ii) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing the Company for purposes of such Registration
Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Investors. 
  
 (h) Upon five (5) days prior written notice by the Investor, which notice shall not be given more than one (1) time per calendar quarter, the
Company shall make available for inspection by (i) any Investor and (ii) one (1) firm of accountants or other agents retained by the Investors (collectively, the “Inspectors”) all pertinent financial and other
records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector to verify the contents of the Registration Statement and any
amendments or supplements thereto, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request; provided, however, that each Inspector shall agree, and each Investor hereby
agrees, to hold in strict confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except to an Investor) or use any Record or other information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so
notified, unless (a) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the Securities Act, (b) the release of such Records is ordered
pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (c) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of
this or any other agreement of which the Inspector and the Investor has knowledge. Each Investor agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through
other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential. 
  
 (i) The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of
information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a
misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such
information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an Investor is
sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to such Investor and allow such Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure
of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information. 
  
 (j)
The Company shall use its best efforts either to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement (i) to be listed on each securities exchange on 

  

 5 








 
which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted
under the rules of such exchange or (ii) the inclusion for quotation on the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. OTC Bulletin Board for such Registrable Securities. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with
satisfying its obligation under this Section 3(j). 
  
 (k)
The Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered and, to the extent applicable, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the
Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Investors may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investors
may request. 
  
 (l) The Company shall use its best efforts to
cause the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

  
 (m) The Company shall make generally available to its security
holders as soon as practical, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earnings statement (in form complying with the provisions of Rule 158 under the Securities Act) covering a twelve
(12) month period beginning not later than the first day of the Company’s fiscal quarter next following the effective date of the Registration Statement. 
  
 (n) The Company shall otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in
connection with any registration hereunder. 
  
 (o) Within two
(2) business days after a Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such
Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A. 
  
 (p) The Company shall take all other
reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investors of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement. 
  
 4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTORS. 
  
 Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(f) or the
first sentence of 3(e), such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until such Investor’s receipt of the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(e) or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended
certificates for shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase

Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the
Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(f) or the first sentence of 3(e) and for which the Investor has not yet settled. 
  
 5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. 
  
 All expenses incurred in connection with registrations, filings or
qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers, legal and accounting fees shall be paid by the Company. 
  
 6. INDEMNIFICATION. 
  
 With respect to Registrable Securities which are included in a Registration
Statement under this Agreement: 
  
 (a) To the fullest extent
permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor, the directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls any Investor within the meaning
of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or
expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”) incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or
governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become
subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement
or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are
offered (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact
necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any
other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation there under relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses
(i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse the Investors and each such controlling person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or
disbursements or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a):
(x) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in 

  

 7 








 
reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the
preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (y) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made
available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c); and (z) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written
consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the
Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9 hereof. 
  
 (b) In connection with a Registration Statement, each Investor agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a),
the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, employees, representatives, or agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each an “Indemnified
Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or is based upon any Violation, in
each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and,
subject to Section 6(d), such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of
the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the
Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any prospectus shall not inure to the
benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the prospectus was corrected and such new prospectus was delivered to each Investor prior to such Investor’s use of the prospectus to which the
Claim relates. 
  
 (c) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified
Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in
respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the
extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the
Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an 

  

 8 








 
Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one (1) counsel for
such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified
Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the
Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations
with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or
condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the
indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to
the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. 
  
 (d) The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages
are incurred. 
  
 (e) The indemnity agreements contained herein
shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the
law. 
  
 7. CONTRIBUTION. 
  
 To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or
limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no
seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

 8. REPORTS UNDER THE EXHANGE ACT. 
  
 With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any
similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration (“Rule 144”) the Company agrees to: 
  
 (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144; 
  
 (b) file with the SEC in a
timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the Company’s
obligations under Section 4(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement) and the filing of such reports and other documents as are required by the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and 
  
 (c) furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written
statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so
filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration. 
  
 9. AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. 
  
 Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular
instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and Investors who then hold at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this
Section 9 shall be binding upon each Investor and the Company. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to fewer than all of the holders of the Registrable Securities. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any
Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement. 
  
 10. MISCELLANEOUS. 
  
 (a) A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities. If
the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two (2) or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the
registered owner of such Registrable Securities. 
  

 10 








 (b) Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the
terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or
electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one (1) business day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same. The

 EXHIBIT A 
  

FORM OF NOTICE OF EFFECTIVENESS 
 OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT 
  

	Attention:	

  
 Re: LITHIUM TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION 
  
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
  
 We are counsel to Lithium Technology Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and have represented the Company in connection
with that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) entered into by and among the Company and the investors named therein (collectively, the “Investors”) pursuant to which the
Company issued to the Investors shares of its Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors
(the “Investor Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”). In connection with the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, on                 
    , the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form                      (File
No. 333-                ) (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange SEC (the “SEC”) relating to
the Registrable Securities which names each of the Investors as a selling stockholder there under. 
  
 In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the SEC’s staff has advised us by telephone that the SEC has entered an order
declaring the Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act at [ENTER TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS] and we have no knowledge, after telephonic inquiry of a member of the SEC’s staff, that any
stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC and the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the Securities Act pursuant to the
Registration Statement. 
  
 Very truly yours, 
  
 [Law Firm] 
  
 By:
