**Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.** 

The following documents previously filed by the Registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") are incorporated herein by reference:

(a) The Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") on December 22, 2022;

Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed to constitute a part hereof except as so modified or superseded.

**Item 4. Description of Securities.**

Not applicable. The class of securities to be offered is registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

**Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.**

Not applicable.

**Item 6.** **Indemnification of Directors and Officers.**

Neither the Registrant's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation nor its Amended and Restated Bylaws prevent the Registrant from indemnifying its officers, directors and agents to the extent permitted under the Nevada Revised Statute ("NRS"). NRS Section 78.7502(3) provides that a corporation shall indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation against expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to Section 78.7502(1) or 78.7502(2), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein.

NRS Section 78.7502(1) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if the person: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

NRS Section 78.7502(2) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if the person: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS Section 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals there from, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

NRS Section 78.747 provides that except as otherwise provided by specific statute, no director or officer of a corporation is individually liable for a debt or liability of the corporation, unless the director or officer acts as the alter ego of the corporation. The court as a matter of law must determine the question of whether a director or officer acts as the alter ego of a corporation.

The Registrant's Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the Registrant will, to the maximum extent and in the manner permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes (as such law may from time to time be amended, but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Registrant to provide broader indemnification rights), indemnify each of its directors and officers against expenses, judgments, fines, penalties, ERISA excise taxes, settlements, loss, liability, and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding, arising by reason of such person's Official Capacity (as defined below) or anything done or not done in such person's Official Capacity. "Official Capacity" means the person's corporate status as an officer and/or director and any other fiduciary capacity in which the person serves the Registrant, its subsidiaries or affiliates, and any other entity which the person serves in such capacity at the request of any of the Registrant's board of directors or any committee of its board of directors, chief executive officer, chairman of the board of directors, or president. "Official Capacity" also refers to all actions which the person takes or does not take while serving in such capacity.

The Registrant's Amended and Restated Bylaws also provide that the Registrant may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, manager, member, partner, trustee, employee or other agent of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person's as such, whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes. The Registrant has purchased a policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance that insures its directors and officers.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by the Registrant is against public policy as expressed hereby in the Securities Act and the Registrant will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

**Item 9. Undertakings.**

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) To
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration
Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities
offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range
may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume
and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in Exhibit 107 (Filing Fee Table) in
the effective Registration Statement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any
material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

*provided*, *however*, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement related to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

**SIGNATURES**

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed on or about the date hereof by Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Registrant"), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Registration Statement"), in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 12,035,000 shares of the Registrant's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"). We understand that the Shares are to be issued pursuant to the Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 2023 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "2023 Plan"). In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the original of all documents submitted to us as copies thereof. As your legal counsel, we have examined the proceedings taken, and are familiar with the proceedings proposed to be taken, in connection with the sale of the Shares pursuant to the 2023 Plan.

It is our opinion that, upon completion of the proceedings being taken or contemplated by us, as your counsel, to be taken prior to the issuance of the Shares, the Shares when issued in the manner referred to in the Registration Statement and in accordance with the 2023 Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

This opinion is intended for use in connection with sale of the Shares in accordance with the 2023 Plan and is not to be relied upon for any other purpose. Our opinion set forth above is limited to the laws of the State of Nevada, including the statutory provisions and reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws and we do not express any opinion herein concerning any other laws.

This opinion is rendered as of the date first written above and based solely on our understanding of facts in existence as of such date after the aforementioned examination. We assume no obligation to advise you of any fact, circumstance, event or change in the law or the facts that may hereafter be brought to our attention whether or not such occurrence would affect or modify any of the opinions expressed herein.

We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and further consent to the use of our name wherever appearing in the Registration Statement, including the prospectus constituting a part thereof, and any amendments thereto. In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that this firm is within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by the Commission.

**CITIUS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.**

**2023 OMNIBUS STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN**

**STOCK OPTION Award Agreement**

This Stock Option Award Agreement (this "**Agreement**") is made by and between Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "**Company**") and _____________________ ("**Grantee**") effective as of the Date of Grant shown on the accompanying Notice of Stock Option Grant (the "**Grant Notice**"). Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement or the Grant Notice but defined in the Company's 2023 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "**Plan**") will have the same definition and meaning as in the Plan.

**1. Grant of Option.** The Company has granted to Grantee an option to purchase, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement, all or any part of the number of Shares described in the Grant Notice, at the Exercise Price set forth in the Grant Notice (the "**Option**"), subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 13 of the Plan.

**2. Vesting.** Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement, the Option will vest as provided in the Grant Notice, provided that vesting will cease upon the termination of Grantee's Continuous Service.

**3. Forfeiture; Expiration.** Any unvested portion of the Option will be forfeited immediately, automatically, and without consideration upon a termination of Grantee's Continuous Service for any reason. In the event Grantee's Continuous Service is terminated for Cause, the vested portion of the Option will also be forfeited immediately, automatically, and without consideration upon that termination for Cause. Any unexercised vested portion of the Option will expire on the Expiration Date set forth in the Grant Notice.

**4. Period of Exercise.** Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement, Grantee may exercise all or any part of the vested portion of the Option at any time prior to the earliest to occur of:

**(a)** the Expiration Date indicated in the Grant Notice;

**(b)** the effective date of the termination of Grantee's Continuous Service for Cause;

**(c)** the date that is 12 months after the termination of Grantee's Continuous Service due to his or her death or Disability, provided, however, that in the event Grantee dies within such 12 month period after the termination of Grantee's Continuous Service due to his or her Disability, the period for exercise will be extended until the date 12 months after his or her death (but in no event later than the Expiration Date); or

**(d)** the date that is three months after the termination of Grantee's Continuous Service for any reason other than Cause, Disability or death; provided however, that in the event that Grantee dies within such three-month period, the period for exercise will be extended until the date 12 months after his or her death (but in no event later than the Expiration Date).

**5. Exercise of Option.** Grantee or, in the case of Grantee's death or Disability, Grantee's representative, may exercise all or any part of the vested portion of the Option by delivering to the Company at its principal office a written notice of exercise in the form attached as <u>Exhibit A</u> or any other form that the Administrator may permit (such notice, a "**Notice of Exercise**"). The Notice of Exercise will be signed by the person exercising the Option. In the event that the Option is being exercised by Grantee's representative, the Notice of Exercise will be accompanied by proof (satisfactory to the Administrator) of the representative's right to exercise the Option. In addition, any exercise of the Option, whether in whole or in part, is subject to the following conditions:

**(a)** Grantee (or Grantee's representative, if applicable) will deliver to the Company, at the time of giving the Notice of Exercise, payment in a form permissible under Section 6 below for the full amount of the Purchase Price.

**(b)** Grantee (or Grantee's representative, if applicable) may exercise the Option only for whole Shares.

**(c)** Grantee (or Grantee's representative, if applicable) may not exercise the Option unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Related Entity, as described in Section 9 below, are satisfied.

**(d)** In the event that Grantee is an employee eligible for overtime compensation under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended (sometimes referred to as a "non-exempt employee"), then he or she may not exercise the Option until he or she has completed at least six months of Continuous Service measured from the Date of Grant specified in the Grant Notice, notwithstanding any other provision of the Option.

**6. Payment for Shares.** The "**Purchase Price**" will be the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised. The Purchase Price may be paid as follows:

**(a)** in cash;

**(b)** by check or money order;

**(c)** by surrender to the Company (either by actual delivery or attestation) of already-owned shares of Common Stock that are owned by Grantee free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests, with a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation equal to the Purchase Price (provided that Grantee may not exercise the Option by tender to the Company of Common Stock to the extent such tender would violate the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company's stock);

**(d)** through a formal "net exercise" arrangement adopted by the Company pursuant to which the Grantee may exercise the Option and receive the net number of Shares equal to (i) the number of Shares as to which the Option is being exercised, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Fair Market Value per Share (on such date as is determined by the Administrator) less the Exercise Price per Share, and the denominator of which is such Fair Market Value per Share;

**(e)** through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Grantee (i) provides written instructions to a Company designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of some or all of the purchased Shares and remit to the Company sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchased Shares and (ii) provides written directives to the Company to deliver the certificates (or other evidence satisfactory to the Company to the extent that the Shares are uncertificated) for the purchased Shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction; or

**(f)** through any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

**7. Securities Law Compliance.** No Shares will be issued pursuant to this Agreement unless and until all then applicable requirements imposed by federal and state securities and other laws, rules and regulations and by any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and by any exchanges upon which the Shares may be listed, have been fully met. The Company may impose such conditions on any Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under the requirements of any exchange upon which shares of the same class are then listed and under any blue sky or other securities laws applicable to those Shares.

**8. Tax Consequences**. Set forth below is a brief summary as of the date of this Option of some of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercise of this Option and disposition of the Shares issued as a result of the exercise thereof. THIS SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY DISCUSSION OF STATE, LOCAL, OR FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OR ANY FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES OTHER THAN INCOME TAX. BESIDES THE INCOME TAX ITEMS SUMMARIZED BELOW, EMPLOYMENT OR SELF-EMPLOYMENT TAXES MAY ALSO APPLY WITH RESPECT TO THE OPTION. GRANTEE SHOULD CONSULT HIS OR HER PERSONAL TAX ADVISOR BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES.

**(a)** <u>Exercise of Incentive Stock Option</u>. If this Option qualifies as an Incentive Stock Option, there will be no regular federal income tax liability upon the exercise of the Option, although the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Purchase Price will be treated as an item of adjustment to the alternative minimum tax for federal tax purposes in the year of exercise and may subject Grantee to the alternative minimum tax.

**(b)** <u>Exercise of Non-Statutory Stock Option</u>. If this Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, there may be a regular federal income tax liability upon the exercise of the Option. Grantee will be treated in such event as having received compensation income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Purchase Price. If Grantee is an employee, the Company will generally be required to withhold from Grantee's compensation or collect from Grantee and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this compensation income at the time of exercise (see Section 9 below).

**(c)** <u>Disposition of Shares</u>. In the case of an NSO, if Shares are held for more than one year after the date of the taxable compensation event, under current law any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will generally be treated as long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, if Shares transferred pursuant to the Option are held for more than one year after exercise and are disposed of more than two years after the Date of Grant, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will generally also be treated as long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes. If Shares purchased under an Incentive Stock Option are disposed of within the later of (i) the date two years after the Date of Grant, or (ii) the date one year after the date of exercise (such disposition a "**Disqualifying Disposition**"), any gain realized on such disposition will be treated as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income rates) in an amount equal to the excess of (1) the lesser of (A) the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise, or (B) the sale price of the Shares over (2) the Purchase Price paid for those Shares. The gain realized in excess of such amount, if any, will generally be eligible for capital gains treatment (either short-term or long-term, depending upon the length of time the Shares were held prior to disposition).

**(d)** <u>Notice of Disqualifying Disposition</u>. If the Option is designated as an Incentive Stock Option, then in the event of a Disqualifying Disposition, Grantee will immediately, and in any event not later than 15 days after such disposition, notify the Company in writing of such disposition.

**9. Withholding Obligations.** Grantee may incur Tax Obligations under federal, state, local, and/or foreign law, in connection with the grant, vesting, or exercise of the Option, the ownership of the Shares, and other actions taken pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company may be required to satisfy by withholding from Grantee's compensation or otherwise collect from Grantee. Grantee agrees that the exercise of the Option is conditioned upon the satisfaction of such withholding tax obligations, and the Company may satisfy such withholding obligations by any of the following means or by a combination of such means, in the Administrator's discretion: (i) withholding from any compensation otherwise payable to Grantee by the Company; (ii) causing Grantee to tender a cash payment; or (iii) withholding from the Shares otherwise issuable to Grantee upon exercise of the Option the number of Shares with a Fair Market Value (measured as of the date the tax withholding obligations are to be determined) sufficient to satisfy such tax withholding; provided, however, that the number of such Shares so withheld will not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Company's required tax withholding obligations using the statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign tax purposes, including payroll taxes, as determined by the Administrator. Grantee understands that all matters with respect to the total amount of taxes to be withheld in respect of such compensation income will be determined by the Administrator in its reasonable discretion. Grantee further understands that, although the Company will pay withheld amounts to the applicable taxing authorities, Grantee remains responsible for payment of all taxes due as a result of income arising under the Agreement.

**10. Rights as a Stockholder.** Neither Grantee nor anyone claiming through him/her will have any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Shares subject to the Option until the Grantee has exercised the Option as described herein and the Shares are delivered (as evidenced by delivery of a certificate for such Shares or the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company).

**11. Transferability.** The Option may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during Grantee's life only by Grantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Administrator, Grantee may designate a third party who, in the event of Grantee's death, will thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

**12. Option not a Service Contract.** Neither the Option nor this Agreement is an employment or service contract, and nothing in this Agreement or the Grant Notice creates or will be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on Grantee's part to continue in the service of the Company or a Related Entity, or of the Company or a Related Entity to continue Grantee's service.

**13. Governing Plan Document.** This Option is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of this Agreement, and is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations, which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. Grantee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will control.

**14. Miscellaneous.** 

**(a)** <u>Notices</u>. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed given when delivered personally, one day after deposit with a recognized international delivery service (such as FedEx), or three days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class, certified or registered, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid, in each case addressed to the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth in the Grant Notice or such other address as a party may designate by notifying the other in writing.

**(b)** <u>Successors and Assigns</u>. The provisions of this Agreement will inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its successors and assigns and upon the Grantee, Grantee's executor, personal representative(s), distributees, administrators, permitted transferees, permitted assignees, beneficiaries, and legatee(s), as applicable, whether or not any such person will have become a party to this Agreement and have agreed in writing to be joined herein and be bound by the terms hereof.

**(c)** <u>Severability</u>. The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, then the remaining provisions will nevertheless be binding and enforceable.

**(d)** <u>Amendment</u>. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, this Agreement will not be amended unless the amendment is agreed to in writing by both Grantee and the Company.

**(e)** <u>Choice of Law</u>. This Agreement will be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, without giving effect to the choice of law rules of any jurisdiction.

**(f)** <u>Entire Agreement</u>. This Agreement, along with the Grant Notice and the Plan, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any other agreements, representations or understandings (whether oral or written and whether express or implied) that relate to such subject matter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Representations</u>. By signing and delivering this notice to the Company, I acknowledge that I am the holder of the Option exercised by this notice and have full power and authority to exercise the Option. I further represent that I have received, read, and understood the Plan and the Award Agreement, and I confirm my agreement to abide by and be bound by their terms and conditions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this notice will have the meanings ascribed to those terms in the Award Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Compliance with Securities Laws</u>. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Award Agreement to the contrary, the exercise of any rights to purchase any Optioned Shares is expressly conditioned upon compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "**Securities Act**"), all applicable state securities laws and all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or over the counter market on which the Company's Common Stock may be listed or traded at the time of exercise and transfer. I agree to cooperate with the Company to ensure compliance with such laws. I further understand that the Optioned Shares cannot be resold and must be held indefinitely unless they are registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available and that the certificate(s) representing the Optioned Shares may bear a legend to that effect. I understand that the Company is under no obligation to register the Optioned Shares and that an exemption may not be available or may not permit me to transfer Optioned Shares in the amounts or at the times I may desire.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Tax Withholding</u>.

No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of the Optioned Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Tax Consultation</u>. I understand that I may experience adverse tax consequences as a result of my exercise of the Option or my disposition of the Optioned Shares. I represent that I have consulted with any tax consultants I deem advisable in connection with the exercise of the Option and/or the disposition of the Optioned Shares and that I am not relying on the Company or its agents for any tax advice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Interpretation</u>. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this notice will be resolved by the Administrator in its discretion, and the Administrator's determination will be final and binding on all parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Entire Agreement</u>. The Plan and the Award Agreement under which the Option was originally granted are incorporated herein by reference and, together with this notice, constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this notice.
