Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1.4 and Section 2.4 hereof, at any time and from time
to time on or after the date the Company consummates the Business Combination, the Holders of at least a majority in interest of
the then outstanding number of Registrable Securities (the “Demanding Holders”) may make a written demand
for Registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable Securities, which written demand shall describe the
amount and type of securities to be included in such Registration and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof (such written
demand a “Demand Registration”). The Company shall, within ten (10) days of the Company’s
receipt of the Demand Registration, notify, in writing, all other Holders of Registrable Securities of such demand, and each Holder
of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in a
Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration (each such Holder that includes all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable
Securities in such Registration, a “Requesting Holder”) shall so notify the Company, in writing, within
five (5) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. Upon receipt by the Company of any such written
notification from a Requesting Holder(s) to the Company, such Requesting Holder(s) shall be entitled to have their Registrable
Securities included in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration and the Company shall effect, as soon thereafter as practicable,
but not more than forty five (45) days immediately after the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, the Registration
of all Registrable Securities requested by the Demanding Holders and Requesting Holders pursuant such the Demand Registration.
Under no circumstances shall the Company be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of three (3) Registrations pursuant
to a Demand Registration under this subsection 2.1.1 with respect to any or all Registrable Securities; provided, however,
that a Registration shall not be counted for such purposes unless a Form S-1 or any similar long-form registration statement that
may be available at such time (“Form S-1”) has become effective and all of the Registrable Securities
requested by the Requesting Holders to be registered on behalf of the Requesting Holders in such Form S-1 Registration have been
sold, in accordance with Section 3.1 of this Agreement.


 


2.1.2 Effective Registration.
Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.1.1 above or any other part of this Agreement, a Registration pursuant
to a Demand Registration shall not count as a Registration unless and until (i) the Registration Statement filed with the
Commission with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission and (ii) the
Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, further,
that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, an offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration
pursuant to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or
state court or any other governmental agency the Registration Statement with respect to such Registration shall be deemed not to
have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated,

to continue with such Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than five (5) days,

Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has been previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant
to a Demand Registration becomes effective or is subsequently terminated.


 


2.1.3 Underwritten Offering.
Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1.4 and Section 2.4 hereof, if a majority-in-interest
of the Demanding Holders so advise the Company as part of their Demand Registration that the offering of the Registrable Securities
pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, then the right of such Demanding Holder
or Requesting Holder (if any) to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s
participation in such Underwritten Offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Underwritten
Offering to the extent provided herein. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten
Offering under this subsection 2.1.3 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s)
selected for such Underwritten Offering by the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating the Demand Registration.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


2.1.4 Reduction of Underwritten
Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration, in
good faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or
number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together
with all other Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell and the Common Stock, if any, as to which
a Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders
who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten
Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success
of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number
of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable
Securities of the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable
Securities that each Demanding Holder and Requesting Holder (if any) has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration

Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing
within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a “ Piggyback Registration”).

its best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable

and conditions as any similar securities of the Company included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition
of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to

be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


(b) If the Registration is pursuant to a
request by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Company shall include in any such Registration

upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw
from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect
to such Piggyback Registration. The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal
by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission
in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding

with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.2.3.


 


2.2.4 Unlimited Piggyback Registration
Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall not be
counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.1 hereof.


 


  2.3 Registrations on Form

to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), register the resale of any
or all of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement that may be available at such
time (“Form S-3”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated
to effect such request through an Underwritten Offering. Within five (5) days of the Company’s receipt of a written
request from a Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities for a Registration on Form S-3, the Company shall promptly give written
notice of the proposed Registration on Form S-3 to all other Holders of Registrable Securities, and each Holder of Registrable
Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration
on Form S-3 shall so notify the Company, in writing, within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from
the Company. As soon as practicable thereafter, but not more than twelve (12) days after the Company’s initial receipt
of such written request for a Registration on Form S-3, the Company shall register all or such portion of such Holder’s Registrable
Securities as are specified in such written request, together with all or such portion of Registrable Securities of any other Holder
or Holders joining in such request as are specified in the written notification given by such Holder or Holders; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such Registration pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof if (i) a
Form S-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) the Holders of Registrable Securities, together with the Holders of any
other equity securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such Registration, propose to sell the Registrable Securities and
such other equity securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $5,000,000.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


2.4 Restrictions on Registration
Rights. If (A) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate
of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of, a Company
initiated Registration and provided that the Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a Demand Registration
pursuant to subsection 2.1.1 and it continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to cause
the applicable Registration Statement to become effective; (B) the Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and
the Company and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite the offer; or (C) in
the good faith judgment of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes as
a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then in each case the Company shall
furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board
it would be seriously detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future and that it is
therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement. In such event, the Company shall have the right to defer
such filing for a period of not more than thirty (30) days; provided, however, that the Company shall
not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any 12-month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement, no Registration shall be effected or permitted and no Registration Statement shall become effective, with respect
to any Registrable Securities held by any Holder, until after the expiration of the Founder Lock-Up Period or the Private Placement
Lock-Up Period, as the case may be.

Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall, as expeditiously
as possible,:


 


3.1.1 prepare and file with the Commission
as soon as practicable a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts
to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement have been sold;


 


3.1.2 prepare and file with the Commission
such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, as may be
requested by the Holders or any Underwriter of Registrable Securities or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions
applicable to the registration form used by the Company or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the
Registration Statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance
with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus;


  




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


3.1.3 prior to filing a Registration Statement
or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the Underwriters, if any, and the Holders of Registrable
Securities included in such Registration, and such Holders’ legal counsel, copies of such Registration Statement as proposed
to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents
incorporated by reference therein), the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus),
and such other documents as the Underwriters and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration or the legal
counsel for any such Holders may request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holders;


 


3.1.4 prior to any public offering of Registrable
Securities, use its best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement
under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders of Registrable Securities
included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request and (ii) take such action
necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such
other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other
acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration
Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be
required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction
where it is not then otherwise so subject;


 


3.1.5 cause all such Registrable Securities
to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then
listed;


 


3.1.6 provide a transfer agent or warrant
agent, as applicable, and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;


 


3.1.7 advise each seller of such Registrable
Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission
suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose
and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop
order should be issued;


 


3.1.8 at least five (5) days prior
to the filing of any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus
or any document that is to be incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement or Prospectus, furnish a copy thereof
to each seller of such Registrable Securities or its counsel;


 


3.1.9 notify the Holders at any time when
a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of
any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement,
and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof;


 


3.1.10 permit a representative of the Holders,
the Underwriters, if any, and any attorney or accountant retained by such Holders or Underwriter to participate, at each such person’s
own expense, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees
to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with
the Registration; provided, however, that such representatives or Underwriters enter into a confidentiality
agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information;


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


3.1.11 obtain a “cold comfort”
letter from the Company’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Registration, in customary
form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters as the managing Underwriter
may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders;


  


3.1.12 on the date the Registrable Securities
are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, obtain an opinion, dated such date, of counsel representing the Company for
the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the Holders, the placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters,
if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the Holders,
placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative
assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the participating Holders;


 


3.1.13 in the event of any Underwritten
Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing
Underwriter of such offering;


 


3.1.14 make available to its security holders,
as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with
the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies
the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder;


 


3.1.15 if the Registration involves the
Registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $25,000,000, use its reasonable efforts to make available
senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested
by the Underwriter in any Underwritten Offering; and


 


3.1.16 otherwise, in good faith, cooperate
reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, in connection with such Registration.


 


3.2 Registration Expenses. The
Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Company. It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall
bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’ commissions and
discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,”
all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.


 


3.3 Requirements for Participation
in Underwritten Offerings. No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of the Company pursuant
to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s securities
on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes and executes all customary
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may
be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse
Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement,
each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented
or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such
supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company
that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement
in respect of any Registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion
in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s
control, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness
of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days,
determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the
preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of
the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall
immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section
3.4.


 


3.5 Reporting Obligations. As
long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be reporting under the Exchange Act,
covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required
to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish
the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action
as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell shares of the
Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided
by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including providing any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company
shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.


  


ARTICLE IV


INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION


 


4.1 Indemnification.


 


4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify,
to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each person who controls
such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including
attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement,
Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused
by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall
indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of
the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


4.1.2 In connection with any Registration
Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such
information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus
and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls
the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including
without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue
statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however,
that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the
liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such
Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall
indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the
Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.


 


4.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification
herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification
(provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the
extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s
reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim,
permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.
If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified
party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to,
or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall 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, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified
party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to
such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or
enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying
party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement 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.


  


4.1.4 The indemnification provided for
under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified
party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The
Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably
requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s indemnification
is unavailable for any reason.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section
4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect
of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying
the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party
and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party
and indemnified party 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, was made by, or relates
to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however,
that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds
received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the
losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above,
any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were
determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to in this subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f)
of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who
was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

5.2 Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries.


 


5.2.1 This Agreement and the rights, duties
and obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Company in whole or in part.


 


5.2.2 Prior to the expiration of the Founder
Lock-up Period or the Private Placement Lock-up Period, as the case may be, no Holder may assign or delegate such Holder’s
rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, except in connection with a transfer of Registrable Securities
by such Holder to a Permitted Transferee.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


5.2.3 This Agreement and the provisions
hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties and its successors and the permitted assigns
of the Holders; which shall include Permitted Transferees.


 


5.2.4 This Agreement shall not confer any
rights or benefits on any persons that are not parties hereto, other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement and Section
5.2 hereof.


 


5.2.5 No assignment by any party hereto
of such party’s rights, duties and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon or obligate the Company unless and until the
Company shall have received (i) written notice of such assignment as provided in Section 5.1 hereof
and (ii) the written agreement of the assignee, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to be bound by the terms
and provisions of this Agreement (which may be accomplished by an addendum or certificate of joinder to this Agreement). Any transfer
or assignment made other than as provided in this Section 5.2 shall be null and void.


 


5.3 Counterparts. This Agreement
may be executed in multiple counterparts (including facsimile or PDF counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original,
and all of which together shall constitute the same instrument, but only one of which need be produced.


 


5.4 Governing Law; Venue. NOTWITHSTANDING
THE PLACE WHERE THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE EXECUTED BY ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT THIS AGREEMENT SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE AS APPLIED TO AGREEMENTS AMONG DELAWARE RESIDENTS ENTERED

5.5 Amendments and Modifications.
Upon the written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities at
the time in question, compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived,
or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified; provided, however, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in its capacity
as a holder of the shares of capital stock of the Company, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in
such capacity) shall require the consent of the Holder so affected. No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and
any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under
this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company. No single or partial exercise
of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights
or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.


 


5.6 Other Registration Rights.
The Company represents and warrants that no person, other than a Holder of Registrable Securities, has any right to require the
Company to register any securities of the Company for sale or to include such securities of the Company in any Registration filed
by the Company for the sale of securities for its own account or for the account of any other person. Further, the Company represents
and warrants that this Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement with similar terms and conditions
and in the event of a conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.


 


5.7 Term. This Agreement shall
terminate upon the earlier of (i) the tenth anniversary of the date of this Agreement or (ii) the date as of which (A) all

are permitted to sell the Registrable Securities under Rule 144 (or any similar provision) under the Securities Act without limitation
on the amount of securities sold or the manner of sale. The provisions of Section 3.5 and Article
IV shall survive any termination.
