*<u>Membership Interest Purchase Agreement</u>*

On June 16, 2026, Olenox Industries Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), entered into an Amended and Restated Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Amended Purchase Agreement") with CS Digital Ventures, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("CS Digital"), the members of CS Digital listed on the signature page thereto (collectively, the "Sellers"), and Bernardo Schucman, in his capacity as the seller representative (the "Seller Representative"). The Amended Purchase Agreement was entered into as an amendment to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement executed on or about between the Company, CS Digital, and the Sellers, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of CS Digital (the "Acquisition") on the same date.

*<u>Exchange Agreement</u>*

On June 16, 2026, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with the holders of the Company's Series D Preferred shares of stock (the "Series D Preferred Stock"), listed on the signature page thereto (collectively, the "Holders"). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement and as part of the transactions contemplated by the Amended Purchase Agreement executed concurrently by the Holders, the Holders will surrender to the Company all of the Holders' right, title, and interest in and to their Series D Preferred Stock identified on Schedule I of the Exchange Agreement, and in exchange the Company shall issue an equal number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock (the "Series E Preferred Stock"). Immediately following the exchange of the Series D Preferred Stock for the Series E Preferred Stock, every share of Series D Preferred Stock shall be deemed cancelled and retired and shall no longer be outstanding. The Series E Preferred Stock shall have the rights, preferences, and privileges set fort in the Certificate of Designation of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on or about June 17, 2026.

**Aggregate Consideration.** The aggregate consideration payable by the Company under the Amended Purchase Agreement consists of: (i) US$30,000,000 in upfront consideration, payable at closing, comprised of (a) US$14,000,000 in newly issued shares of the Company's Series E Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Series E Preferred Stock"), issued at a stated value of $100.00 per share, and (b) US$16,000,000 in the form of an unsecured promissory note issued by the Company to the Sellers (the "Seller Note"); (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), comprised of three equal tranches of 500,000 shares each, with exercise prices of $5.00, $7.00 and $9.00 per share, respectively (collectively, the "Warrants"); and (iii) up to an additional US$20,000,000 in shares of Series E Preferred Stock (the "Earnout Shares"), issuable upon the achievement of two post-closing milestones tied to (A) cumulative revenue and (B) cumulative Adjusted EBITDA of CS Digital, in each case as further described in the Amended Purchase Agreement.

**Conversion Gate; Stockholder Approval.** No shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be convertible into Common Stock to the extent that, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to (i) the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, (ii) the exercise of any warrants issued in connection with the issuance of the Series E Preferred Stock, or (iii) the exercise, conversion or exchange or any other securities issued in the same financing transaction or any related transaction that are required to be aggregated pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5636(d) (or any successor rule), which would exceed 19.9% of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the closing of such financing (the "Exchange Cap"). The Amended Purchase Agreement provides that the Company shall use its best efforts to convene a meeting of its stockholders to seek the requisite approval of the Company's stockholders, as required under applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), including Listing Rule 5635 (the "Stockholder Approval") to allow the conversion of Series E Preferred Stock into Common Stock and/or the exercise of Warrants to exceed the Exchange Cap, within ninety (90) days after the closing and, if the Stockholder Approval is not obtained at such meeting, to convene a meeting of stockholders every three months thereafter until the Stockholder Approval is obtained. The failure to obtain Stockholder Approval will not give rise to any increase in the stated value of, accrual of dividends or interest on, redemption right with respect to, decrease in the conversion price of, or any other economic consequence favorable to the holders of, the Series E Preferred Stock or the Warrants.

**Beneficial Ownership Limitation.** Conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants are further subject to a beneficial ownership limitation pursuant to which no holder, together with such holder's attribution parties, may convert or exercise such securities to the extent it would result in such holder, together with such holder's attribution parties, beneficially owning in excess of 19.9% of the outstanding Common Stock or voting power of the Company.

**Registration Rights.** Within sixty (60) days following the date the Company obtains the Stockholder Approval, the Company has agreed to file a shelf registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, and to use best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, subject to customary suspension and deferral rights of the Company.

**Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.** The Amended Purchase Agreement contains customary non-competition and non-solicitation covenants applicable to each of Bernardo Schucman and Shanti Cillo (the "Principal Sellers") for a period of two (2) years following the closing date, subject to certain limited exceptions set forth in the Amended Purchase Agreement, including continued ownership of, and service as a board member, manager or consultant to, certain entities specifically identified therein.

**Representations, Warranties and Indemnification.** The Amended Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions. Indemnification claims based on breaches of representations and warranties are generally subject to an eighteen (18) month survival period, a $100,000 basket and a $10 million cap, subject to customary exceptions for fundamental representations, certain tax-related matters and fraud.

*<u>Warrants</u>*

In connection with the closing of the Acquisition, the Company issued the Warrants to the Sellers. The Warrants entitle the holders thereof to purchase an aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock, comprised of three equal tranches of 500,000 shares each with exercise prices of $5.00, $7.00 and $9.00 per share, respectively. The Warrants are not exercisable into Common Stock prior to receipt of the Stockholder Approval. Additional terms of the Warrants, including expiration, cashless exercise provisions, and customary adjustment provisions for stock splits and similar events, are set forth in the form of Warrant filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.

*<u>Certificate of Designation</u>*

In connection with the closing of the Acquisition, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Series E Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. See Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the disclosure under which is incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.**

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference. On June 16, 2026, the Company completed the Acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of CS Digital pursuant to the Amended Purchase Agreement. As a result of the closing of the Acquisition, CS Digital became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

CS Digital is a digital infrastructure company focused on the development and operation of energy-intensive data centers, including bitcoin mining and high-density compute deployments. As of the closing date, CS Digital had approximately 35 megawatts of installed power capacity currently in operation.

At the closing of the Acquisition, the Company issued to the Sellers, as partial consideration for the membership interests of CS Digital, (i) shares of Series E Preferred Stock having an aggregate stated value of US$14,000,000 and (ii) the Warrants. The Earnout Shares, when and if issued, will be issued to the Sellers as additional consideration upon the achievement of the post-closing milestones described in Item 1.01.

The issuance of the Series E Preferred Stock and the Warrants at closing, and any future issuance of Earnout Shares, were and will be made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. Each Seller represented to the Company that it is an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, and the Series E Preferred Stock, the Warrants and any Earnout Shares were and will be acquired for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The certificates or book-entry positions evidencing such securities, and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion or exercise thereof, will bear customary restrictive legends.

The Certificate of Designation provides, among other things, that: (i) the Series E Preferred Stock is non-voting, except as required by the Delaware General Corporation Law; (ii) no shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be convertible into Common Stock to the extent that, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to (x) the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, (y) the exercise of any warrants issued in connection with the issuance of the Series E Preferred Stock, or (z) the exercise, conversion or exchange or any other securities issued in the same financing transaction or any related transaction that are required to be aggregated pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5636(d) (or any successor rule), which would exceed 19.9% of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the closing of such financing; (iii) the conversion price applicable to the Series E Preferred Stock is fixed at $1.00 per share, which the Company has determined equals or exceeds the "Minimum Price" determined in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)(1) as of the closing date; and (iv) the Series E Preferred Stock is not subject to any redemption right, sinking fund, mandatory conversion right or price-based anti-dilution protection..

The foregoing description of the Certificate of Designation does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Designation, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

**Section 6.02 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) During the Restricted Period, each Principal Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in the Restricted Business in the Territory; (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in the Restricted Business in the Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; or (iii) intentionally interfere in any material respect with the business relationships (whether formed prior to or after the date of this Agreement) between the Company and customers or suppliers of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Principal Seller may (1) engage in the continued ownership of interests currently held as of the Effective Date by a Principal Seller or any of his, her or its Affiliates in the entity(ies) listed on <u>Annex I</u> attached hereto; (2) engage as a board member, manager, consultant or similar type role with the entity(ies) listed on <u>Annex I</u> attached hereto; and (3) own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any national securities exchange if such Principal Seller is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own 5% or more of any class of securities of such Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) During the Restricted Period, each Principal Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any employee of the Company or encourage any such employee to leave such employment or hire any such employee who has left such employment, except pursuant to a general solicitation which is not directed specifically to any such employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each Principal Seller acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 6.02 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 6.02 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 6.02 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

**Section 6.03 Post-Closing Access to Books and Records**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In order to facilitate the resolution of any claims made against or incurred by the Company prior to the Closing, or for any other reasonable purpose, for a period of five (5) years after the Closing, Buyer shall:

The party legally responsible for filing any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall be responsible for filing such Tax Returns, if any (and the other party shall reasonably cooperate with respect thereto).

**Section 7.02 Tax Returns**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Seller Representative shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, (at the Sellers' sole expense) and file, or cause to be filed, all Pass-Through Tax Returns required to be filed by the Company after the Closing Date (taking into account any extensions) with respect to taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date ("**Seller Tax Returns**"). Any such Seller Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law), and shall be submitted by Seller Representative to Buyer (together with schedules, statements and, to the extent requested by Buyer, supporting documentation) at least 45 days prior to the due date (including extensions) of such Seller Tax Return. If Buyer objects to any item on any Seller Tax Return, it shall, within 10 days after delivery of such Tax Return, notify Seller Representative in writing that it so objects, specifying with particularity any such item and stating the specific factual or legal basis for any such objection. If a notice of objection shall be duly delivered, Buyer and Seller Representative shall negotiate in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such items. If Buyer and Seller Representative are unable to reach such agreement within 10 days after receipt by Buyer of such notice, the disputed items shall be resolved by the Independent Accountant and any determination by the Independent Accountant shall be final. The Independent Accountant shall resolve any disputed items within twenty days of having the item referred to it pursuant to such procedures as it may require. If the Independent Accountant is unable to resolve any disputed items before the due date for such Tax Return, the Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by Seller Representative and then amended (or other similar applicable procedure), to reflect the Independent Accountant's resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller Representative (on behalf of Sellers). Sellers shall pay (or make arrangements with Buyer to pay or reimburse Buyer or the Company), any Taxes as may be reflected as due and owing on a Seller Tax Return.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except for any Seller Tax Returns pursuant to Section 7.01(a), Buyer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Company after the Closing Date (taking into account any extensions) with respect to (i) a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date and (ii) any Straddle Period ("**Buyer Tax Returns**"). Any such Buyer Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law) and shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller Representative (together with schedules, statements and, to the extent requested by Seller Representative, supporting documentation) at least 45 days prior to the due date (including extensions) in relation to a Buyer Tax Return that relates to income Taxes, and, as soon as reasonably practical with respect to any other Buyer Tax Returns. If Seller Representative objects to any item on any such Tax Return, it shall, within 10 days after delivery of such Tax Return, notify Buyer in writing that it so objects, specifying with particularity any such item and stating the specific factual or legal basis for any such objection. If a notice of objection shall be duly delivered, Buyer and Seller Representative shall negotiate in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such items. If Buyer and Seller Representative are unable to reach such agreement within 10 days after receipt by Buyer of such notice, the disputed items shall be resolved by the Independent Accountant and any determination by the Independent Accountant shall be final. The Independent Accountant shall resolve any disputed items within twenty days of having the item referred to it pursuant to such procedures as it may require. If the Independent Accountant is unable to resolve any disputed items before the due date for such Tax Return, the Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by Buyer and then amended to reflect the Independent Accountant's resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller Representative (on behalf of Sellers). In conjunction with the filing of any Buyer Tax Return, Sellers shall pay or remit to Buyer (or the Company) their share of any unpaid Taxes attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period as determined under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Parties agree that any Transaction Tax Deductions shall be allocated to taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending before or on the Closing Date to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law (as determined using a "more likely than not" or higher standard).

**Section 7.03 Termination of Existing Tax Sharing Agreements**. Any and all existing Tax sharing agreements (whether written or not) binding upon the Company shall be terminated as of the Closing Date. After Closing, neither the Company nor any of its Representatives shall have any further rights or liabilities thereunder.

In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (each such period, a "**Straddle Period**"), the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as allocable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period for purposes of this Agreement shall be:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in the case of Taxes (i) based upon, or related to, income, receipts, profits, wages, capital or net worth, (ii) imposed in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of property, or (iii) required to be withheld, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the case of other Taxes, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The remainder of the Taxes for the applicable Straddle Period shall be allocated to the Post-Closing Tax Period.

**Section 7.05 Contests**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Buyer agrees to give written notice to Seller Representative of the receipt of any written notice by the Company, Buyer or any of Buyer's Affiliates of any Action, inquiries, claims, assessments, audits or similar events with respect to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period (any such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event, a "**Tax Claim**"); *provided, that* failure to comply with this provision shall not affect Buyer's right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent any Seller was actually prejudiced as a result thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Seller Representative, at the Sellers' sole expense, shall control the conduct, defense and resolution of any Tax Claim relating to any Pass-Through Tax Return of the Company for any taxable period (but excluding any Straddle Period) ending on or before the Closing Date (a "**Seller Tax Claim**"); provided, however, that Buyer shall be entitled, at Buyer's sole expense, to participate in the conduct of any Seller Tax Claim, which participation shall include the right to employ its own counsel, receive timely notice of any developments and events relating to such Seller Tax Claim, attend any meetings regarding such Seller Tax Claim, and review relevant portions of all written materials relating to such Seller Tax Claim. No Seller Tax Claim shall be settled, abandoned or otherwise compromised without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Buyer, at its sole expense, shall control any Tax Claim other than a Seller Tax Claim (a "**Buyer Tax Claim**"); provided, however, that Seller Representative shall be entitled, at the Sellers' sole expense, to participate in the conduct of any Buyer Tax Claim, which participation shall include the right to employ its own counsel, receive timely notice of any developments and events relating to such Buyer Tax Claim, attend any meetings regarding such Buyer Tax Claim, and review relevant portions of all written materials relating to such Buyer Tax Claim. No Buyer Tax Claim shall be settled, abandoned or otherwise compromised without the prior written consent of the Seller Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Seller Representative and Sellers agree to cause the Company to push out any imputed underpayment with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period under Section 6226 of the Code (or any comparable election for state or local Tax purposes) and to reasonably cooperate in making and reporting such election.

**Section 7.06 Cooperation and Exchange of Information**. Seller Representative, the Company and Buyer shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as any of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return pursuant to this ARTICLE VII or in connection with any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by tax authorities. Each of Seller Representative, the Company and Buyer shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate, without regard to extensions except to the extent notified by the other party in writing of such extensions for the respective Tax periods. Prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date, Seller Representative, the Company or Buyer (as the case may be) shall provide the other party with reasonable written notice and offer the other party the opportunity to take custody of such materials.

**Section 7.07 Post-Closing Actions**. Except as otherwise contemplated under this Agreement or as required under applicable Tax Law, Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company) shall not, without the prior written consent of the Seller Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed): (i) file any Tax Return of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period ending on or before the Closing Date, (ii) extend or waive any statute of limitations or other period for the assessment of any Tax or deficiency related to for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iii) make or change any Tax election with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (iv) voluntarily approach any Tax authority or initiate any "voluntary disclosure" with respect to the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period. Buyer shall not take, and shall not cause the Company to take, any action on the Closing Date following the Closing outside of the ordinary course of business that is reasonably expected to result in an increase in the Tax liability of the Sellers or the Company.

**Section 7.08 Tax Refunds**. Sellers shall be entitled to the amount of any refund of Taxes of the Company with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or credit against cash Taxes payable), net of any reasonable out-of-pocket cost to Buyer and its Affiliates attributable to the obtaining and receipt of such refund or credit. Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller Representative (for the benefit of Sellers) any amount received pursuant to the prior sentence within fifteen (15) days of the receipt (or credit against cash Taxes payable), of the applicable refund or credit by Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including the Company). Notwithstanding the above, nothing in this Section 7.08 shall require Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including the Company), to make any payments with respect to a Tax refund if: (i) the refund is the result of carrying back of any net operating loss or other Tax attributes incurred or attributable to a taxable period (or portion thereof), beginning after the Closing Date; (ii) any refund resulting from the payment of Taxes made after the Closing Date to the extent Sellers have not paid or borne such Tax; (iii) any refund that gives rise to a payment obligation (to the extent of such obligation), by the Company under applicable Law or pursuant to a Contract entered into by the Company prior to Closing.

**Section 7.09 Intended Tax Treatment**. Buyer and the Sellers intend that for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes, the Buyer's acquisition of the Membership Interests will be treated in a manner consistent with IRS Revenue Ruling 99-6, 1999-1 C.B. 432 (Situation 2) (i) from the perspective of the Sellers, as a taxable sale or exchange of all of the partnership interests in the Company in accordance with Section 741 of the Code, and (ii) from the perspective of the Buyer, as though the Company made a liquidating distribution of all of its assets and, immediately thereafter, the Buyer acquired, by a purchase governed by Section 1001 of the Code, an undivided interest in such assets (the "**Intended Tax Treatment**"). The parties shall file all Tax Returns consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment and shall not take any position during the course of any audit or other similar proceeding that is inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, unless required by a final "determination" within the meaning of Code Section 1313(a).

**Section 7.10 Allocation**. For applicable Tax purposes, the Purchase Price (and other relevant amounts treated as purchase price for income Tax purposes) shall be allocated among the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the allocation principles set forth on <u>Exhibit D</u> (the "**Allocation**"). Within 90 days of the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and provide to Seller Representative a proposed Allocation prepared pursuant to this Section 7.10 for Seller Representative's review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Seller Representative and Buyer shall work in good faith to resolve any disputes relating to the Allocation within thirty (30) days. If Seller Representative and Buyer are unable to resolve any such dispute, such dispute shall be resolved promptly by the Independent Accountant, the costs of which shall be borne equally by Sellers and Buyer. In case of any adjustment to the Purchase Price, the Allocation shall be amended in a manner consistent with the principles of this Section 7.10. Buyer and the Sellers agree to file all Tax Returns in accordance with the Allocation, as finally determined, and not to take any position that is inconsistent with the Allocation, unless otherwise required pursuant to a "determination" within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code; provided, that nothing herein shall be construed so as to prevent any Party from settling, or require any Party to commence or participate in any litigation or administrative process challenging, any determination made by any Governmental Authority based upon or arising out of the Allocation.

**Section 7.11 Payments to Buyer**. Any amounts payable to Buyer pursuant to this Article VII or ARTICLE IX, as applicable, shall be satisfied from Sellers, provided that Buyer shall be entitled to offset such amounts by deducting from the Seller Note, withholding any issuance of Buyer Preferred Securities, cancelling any Warrants, or deducting any dividends or other funds payable to Sellers pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Document to offset such amounts owed.

**Section 7.12 Overlap**. To the extent that any obligation or responsibility pursuant to Article VIII may overlap with an obligation or responsibility pursuant to this Article VII, the provisions of this Article VII shall govern.

**Article VIII.<br> SECURITIES MATTERS**

**Section 8.01 Stockholder Approval.** Subject to applicable law and the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of Buyer, Buyer shall use best efforts to submit to its stockholders, after the Closing, a proposal to approve the issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Buyer Preferred Securities and exercise of the Warrants for purposes of the applicable rules and regulations of Nasdaq (the "**Stockholder Approval Proposal**" and such approval, the "**Stockholder Approval**") as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing, and in any event to convene a meeting of Buyer's stockholders at which the Stockholder Approval Proposal shall be submitted to the Buyer's stockholders, with a recommendation from the Board of Directors of Buyer to approve the Stockholder Approval Proposal, within ninety (90) days after the Closing, and if the Stockholder Approval is not obtained at such meeting, to convene a meeting of Buyer's stockholders every three months thereafter at which the Stockholder Approval Proposal shall be submitted to the Buyer's stockholders, with a recommendation from the Board of Directors of Buyer to approve the Stockholder Approval Proposal, until the approval of the Stockholder Approval is obtained. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Stockholder Approval shall not be a condition to the Closing, (ii) no share of Buyer Preferred Securities shall be convertible into Common Stock and no Warrants shall be exercisable unless and until the Stockholder Approval has been obtained, (iii) failure to seek or obtain the Stockholder Approval by any date or at all shall not result in any increase in the Stated Value or any dividend, or any decrease in the Conversion Price, Warrant Exercise Price, any redemption right, rescission right, penalty, fee, liquidated damages or other monetary or economic consequence favorable to any Seller or other holder of such Buyer Preferred Securities or Warrants, and (iv) no shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Buyer Preferred Securities or exercise of any Warrants shall be voted on the Stockholder Approval Proposal to the extent prohibited by Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5635-2.

**Section 8.02 Nasdaq Structuring; Limitations on Conversion.** The Parties have structured the Buyer Preferred Securities with the intent of complying with the applicable rules of Nasdaq, including Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 and the interpretive guidance thereunder. The structuring approach includes, among other things: (a) a limitation on conversion (as set forth in the Certificate of Designation) pursuant to which Buyer Preferred Securities shall be convertible into Common Stock, so long as the issuance of Common Stock upon such conversion, together with the exercise of any Warrants, does not exceed 19.9% of the total outstanding Common Stock of the Buyer; (b) a fixed Conversion Price of $1.00 per share (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), and $5, $7, and $9 for the Warrants, respectively, which Buyer hereby represents and warrants equals or exceeds the Minimum Price of the Common Stock determined in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)(1) as of the Closing Date, as a supportive structural element intended to foreclose any argument of a price-based discount under Rule 5635(d); and (c) the absence of any "sweetener," economic adjustment, penalty, increased dividend, increased conversion ratio or other consequence favorable to the holders of Buyer Preferred Securities triggered by, or contingent upon, the failure to obtain the Stockholder Approval. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that (x) Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) contains no pricing test for acquisition issuances, (y) the issuance of the Warrants and Buyer Preferred Securities at the Closing has been structured, based on Buyer's good-faith analysis and the advice of its Nasdaq counsel, with the intent of complying with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 (including Rules 5635(a)(1), 5635(a)(2), 5635(b) and 5635(d)) without pre-Closing Stockholder Approval, with the conversion limitations in the Certificate of Designation (conversion of Buyer Preferred Securities into Common Stock or exercise of Warrants prior to receipt of Stockholder Approval shall not exceed 19.9% of the total outstanding Common Stock of the Buyer) as the primary compliance architecture, and with (A) the non-voting character of the Buyer Preferred Securities (except as required by applicable law) and the absence of Board designation, consent or governance rights that would constitute or effect a change of control of Buyer within the meaning of Rule 5635(b), and (B) the Conversion Price of the Buyer Preferred Securities and Warrants equaling or exceeding the Minimum Price under Rule 5635(d)(1)(A), each serving as additional backstop structural elements in the event of any contrary interpretation, and (z) accordingly, based on the foregoing structural analysis, Stockholder Approval is not intended to be a condition to Closing, and Stockholder Approval shall be sought only after the Closing and solely to permit conversion of Buyer Preferred Securities into Common Stock and the exercise of the Warrants into Common Stock. The Parties acknowledge that Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 is subject to facts-and-circumstances analysis, and nothing in this Section 8.02 shall be construed as a concession that Nasdaq could not, under such analysis, take a different view; provided, however, that if Nasdaq determines (a) the Buyer Preferred Securities and the Warrants were issued in contravention of applicable Nasdaq rules or (b) the conversion of Buyer Preferred Securities into Common Stock and/or the exercise of the Warrants into Common Stock is, notwithstanding Stockholder Approval as contemplated by this Agreement, is contravention of applicable Nasdaq rules, the Buyer shall use best efforts to appeal such determination.

**Section 8.03 Stock Terms; Nasdaq Matters**. Each Seller acknowledges, understands and agrees that: (a) the Buyer Preferred Securities, when issued, shall have the powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions set forth in the Certificate of Designation to be filed by Buyer with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware prior to or contemporaneously with the Closing pursuant to 8 Del. C. § 151(g); (b) the Warrants, when issued, shall have the powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions set forth in each such Warrant; (c) the Buyer Preferred Securities and Warrants shall be convertible into Common Stock only upon and after receipt of the Stockholder Approval in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of Nasdaq; (c) neither the Buyer Preferred Securities nor any Warrants shall have any voting rights (except as required by the DGCL), redemption rights, sinking fund, mandatory conversion rights, or any price-based anti-dilution protection; (d) no shares of Common Stock in excess of 19.9% of the total outstanding Common Stock may be issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion of the Buyer Preferred Securities or exercise of Warrants until Stockholder Approval; (e) no term of the Buyer Preferred Securities, Certificate of Designation, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Document provides for any increase in the Stated Value, decrease in the Conversion Price, accrual of dividends or interest, accrual of a redemption right payment of a penalty or fee, or any other consequence favorable to the Sellers triggered by, or contingent upon, the failure to obtain the Stockholder Approval by any particular date or at all; and (f) neither the Buyer Preferred Securities nor any Warrant is a "Future Priced Security" within the meaning of Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5635-4, and no term of the Buyer Preferred Securities operates as a variable-conversion or reset-conversion mechanism.

**Section 8.04 Shelf Registration**. Within sixty (60) days following the date Buyer obtains Stockholder Approval, the Buyer agrees to use best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for a shelf registration on Form S-3 (if the Buyer is then eligible to use a Form S-3 shelf registration) or Form S-1 (if the Buyer is then not eligible to use a Form S-3 shelf registration) (the "**Registration Statement**"), in each case, covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Buyer Preferred Securities issued pursuant to this Agreement (the "**Registrable Securities**"), and shall use best efforts to cause the Registration Statement filed under this Agreement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than the Effectiveness Date; *provided, that* the Buyer's obligations to include the Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement are contingent upon each Seller furnishing in writing to the Buyer such information regarding such Seller or its permitted assigns, the securities of the Buyer held by each Seller and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities (which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings) as shall be reasonably requested by the Buyer to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities, and each Seller shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Buyer may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. "**Effectiveness Date**" means, when the Buyer is notified by the SEC that the Registration Statement will not be reviewed or is no longer subject to further review and comments, the fifth Business Day following the date on which the Buyer is so notified.

**Section 8.05 Registration Procedures**. At its expense the Buyer shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) except during any blackout or similar period or for such times as the Buyer is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration, and any qualification, exemption or compliance under state securities laws which the Buyer determines to obtain, continuously effective with respect to the Seller, and to keep the applicable Registration Statement or any subsequent shelf registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions, until the earliest of the following: (i) the Seller ceases to hold any Registrable Securities and (ii) the date all Registrable Securities held by the Seller may be sold without restriction under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The period of time during which the Buyer is required hereunder to keep a Registration Statement effective is referred to herein as the "**Registration Period**";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) during the Registration Period, promptly advise the Seller:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the SEC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) of the receipt by the Buyer of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) subject to the provisions of this Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not materially misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Buyer shall not, when so advising the Seller of such events, provide the Seller with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Buyer other than to the extent that providing notice to the Seller of the occurrence of the events listed in (i) through (iv) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Buyer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) during the Registration Period, except for such times as the Buyer is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as soon as reasonably practicable, prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to holders of the Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

**Section 8.06 Deferral or Suspension of Registration**. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Buyer shall be entitled to delay the filing or effectiveness of, or terminate or suspend the use of, the Registration Statement (or any prospectus therein) if (i) it determines that in order for the Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, (A) an amendment thereto would be needed to include information that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly or annual report under the Exchange Act or (B) the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the Buyer or its affiliates is contemplated or pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event that the Buyer reasonably believes would require additional disclosure by the Buyer in the Registration Statement of material information that the Buyer has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable judgment of the Buyer to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements, or (ii) in the good faith judgment of the Buyer, such filing or effectiveness or use of such Registration Statement would (1) be detrimental to the Buyer, any contemplated or pending mergers, acquisitions, consolidations or other similar transactions or issuances of Buyer securities or any transaction currently proposed by or under consideration by the Buyer or (2) would require the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Buyer that at the time is not, in the good faith judgment of the Buyer, in the best interests of the Buyer to disclose and is not otherwise required to be disclosed, and in either case, the Buyer concludes as a result to defer such filing or terminate or suspend the use of such Registration Statement (or any prospectus included therein) (each such circumstance, a "**Suspension Event**"); *provided that* the Buyer may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more than four (4) occasions or for more than ninety (90) consecutive calendar days, or more than one hundred and eighty (180) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve (12) month period. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Buyer of the happening of any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in light of the circumstances under which they were made, in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, the Seller agrees that (I) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (until the Seller receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Buyer that it may resume such offers and sales, and (II) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Buyer unless otherwise required by law or subpoena.

**Section 8.07 Rule 144**. Following such time as Rule 144 under the Securities Act is available, with a view to making available to the Seller the benefits of Rule 144, the Buyer agrees, for so long as the Seller holds the Buyer Preferred Securities issued pursuant to this Agreement, to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Buyer under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Buyer remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) assist (including by causing the delivery of any necessary opinions and certificates) in the removal of any restrictive legends on the Buyer Preferred Securities (and shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Buyer Preferred Securities).

**Section 8.08 Conversion Limitations**. Each Seller acknowledges that no amount of Buyer Preferred Securities may be converted, nor can any Warrant be exercised, if such conversion or exercise would result in any Attribution Party (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) into more than 19.9% of the total outstanding Common Stock of the Buyer or of the total voting power of the Buyer's securities as of the date hereof and agrees not to convert or exercise more than its Pro Rata Share of such total issued at the Closing.

**Article IX.<br> INDEMNIFICATION**

**Section 9.01 Survival**. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until the date that is eighteen (18) months from the Closing Date; *provided, that* the representations and warranties in Section 3.01(a), Section 3.02, Section 3.03, Section 3.05, Section 3.22, Section 3.24, Section 4.01, Section 4.02, Section 4.04, Section 4.06 and Section 5.01 (the "**Fundamental Representations**") shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations plus 60 days. All covenants and agreements of the parties contained herein shall survive the Closing indefinitely or for the period explicitly specified therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims asserted in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the non-breaching party to the breaching party prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of the relevant representation or warranty and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, from and after Closing, Sellers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and defend each of Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company) and their respective Representatives (collectively, the "**Buyer Indemnitees**") against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Buyer Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any Indemnified Taxes; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any Transaction Expenses or Indebtedness of the Company outstanding as of the Closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of such Seller contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of such Seller pursuant to this Agreement, as of the date such representation or warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such specified date); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by such Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

**Section 9.03 Indemnification By Buyer**. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, from and after Closing, Buyer shall indemnify and defend each of the Sellers and their Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the "**Seller Indemnitees**") against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Seller Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

**Section 9.04 Certain Limitations**. The indemnification provided for in Section 9.02 and Section 9.03 shall be subject to the following limitations:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to Section 9.04(c), Sellers shall not have any obligations under Sections 9.02(a)(i) or 9.02(b)(i) unless and until the Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnitees with respect to any matter or series of related matters for which indemnification is to be provided under Sections 9.02(a)(i) or 9.02(b)(i) exceeds One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) (the "**Basket**"), in which case Sellers, as applicable, shall be liable for all Losses with respect to such matter or matters, from the first dollar (subject to all other applicable requirements and limitations herein).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The aggregate amount of all Losses for which any party shall be liable shall not exceed Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00) (the "**Cap**"); provided that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to Losses based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representation, for which the aggregate amount of all Losses for which any party shall be liable shall not exceed the Purchase Price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this ARTICLE IX, each Seller shall only be liable to the Buyer Indemnitees for Losses up to an aggregate amount equal to the pro rata allocation made to each Seller in respect of the Purchase Price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For all purposes of this Article VIII, solely for calculating the amount of any Loss with respect to the existence of any inaccuracy in, or breach of, any representation or warranty, any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty except with regard to representations or warranties set forth in Section 3.06, Section 3.08(a) and 3.15 and with regard to the use of the defined terms "Material Contract" and "Hazardous Material.".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Except in the case of fraud, in no event will the aggregate liability of Sellers exceed the aggregate consideration provided for herein.

**Section 9.05 Indemnification Procedures**. The party making a claim under this Article VIII is referred to as the "**Indemnified Party**", and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII is referred to as the "**Indemnifying Party**".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Third-Party Claims*. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a "**Third-Party Claim**") against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 20 calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third-Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party's expense and by the Indemnifying Party's own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; *provided, that* if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third-Party Claim that (x) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of the Company, or (y) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 9.05(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party's right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, *provided, that* if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 9.05(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. Seller Representative, Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 6.01) records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Settlement of Third-Party Claims*. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 9.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to Liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all Liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten (10) days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third-Party Claim, and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third-Party Claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Direct Claims*. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a "**Direct Claim**") shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.1 <u>Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up</u>. In the event of the Corporation's liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to the Corporation's stockholders (the "**Liquidation Proceeds**"), prior and in preference to any distribution of the Liquidation Proceeds to the holders of any Series E Junior Stock, and on a *pari passu* basis with respect to the holders of any Series E Parity Stock, consideration in an amount per share equal to the Stated Value. If, upon the occurrence of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the Liquidation Proceeds distributed among the holders of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock and any Series E Parity Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full preferential amounts to which they are entitled, then the entire Liquidation Proceeds shall be distributed ratably among the holders of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock and such Series E Parity Stock in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive. Following the payment of Stated Value pursuant to this Section 3.1, each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be deemed redeemed by the Corporation and cancelled, and no holder of the same shall be entitled to any additional payment. A Qualifying Merger, a Qualifying Sale, a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another corporation or other entity or sale of all or any part of the assets of the Corporation which, in each case, shall not in fact result in the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and the distribution of its assets to its stockholders, shall not be deemed a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation within the meaning of this <u>Section 3.1</u>. The Corporation shall send written notice of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up, not less than 45 days prior to such event, to each holder of Series E Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.2 <u>Qualifying Merger</u>. In the event of a Qualifying Merger, the holders of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, in connection with the conversion in the Qualifying Merger of the shares of Series E Preferred Stock held by them immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Qualifying Merger, out of the aggregate consideration to which the holders of all capital stock of the Corporation are entitled to receive in connection with the conversion in the Qualifying Merger of such shares held by them immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Qualifying Merger (the "**Qualifying Merger Consideration**"), prior and in preference to the receipt of Qualifying Merger Consideration by the holders of any Series E Junior Stock, and on a pari passu basis with the receipt of Qualifying Merger Consideration by the holders of any Series E Parity Stock, consideration in an amount per share equal to the Stated Value. If, upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Merger, the Qualifying Merger Consideration distributed among the holders of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock and any Series E Parity Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full preferential amounts to which they are entitled to receive, then the entire Qualifying Merger Consideration shall be distributed ratably among the holders of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock and such Series E Parity Stock in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive. Following the payment of Stated Value pursuant to this Section 3.2, each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be deemed redeemed by the Corporation and cancelled, and no holder of the same shall be entitled to any additional payment or other consideration. The Corporation shall send written notice of any Qualifying Merger not less than 45 days prior to such event, to each holder of Series E Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.3 <u>Qualifying Sale</u>. In the event of a Qualifying Sale, the holders of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid, out of the aggregate consideration payable to the Corporation in such Qualifying Sale (the "Qualifying Sale Consideration"), prior and in preference to the payment, out of the Qualifying Sale Consideration, to holders of any Series E Junior Stock, and on a pari passu basis with the payment, out of the Qualifying Sale Consideration, to the holders of any Series E Parity Stock, consideration in an amount per share equal to the Stated Value. If, upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Sale, the Qualifying Sale Consideration thus distributed among the holders of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock and any Series E Parity Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full preferential amounts to which they are entitled to receive, then the entire Qualifying Sale Consideration shall be distributed ratably among the holders of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock and such Series E Parity Stock in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive. Following the payment of Stated Value pursuant to this Section 3.2, each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be deemed redeemed by the Corporation and cancelled, and no holder of the same shall be entitled to any additional payment or other consideration. The Corporation shall send written notice of any Qualifying Sale not less than 45 days prior to such event, to each holder of Series E Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4 <u>Determining Liquidation Proceeds, Qualifying Merger Consideration and Qualifying Sale Consideration</u>. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, a Qualifying Merger or a Qualifying Sale, if any of the Liquidation Proceeds, the Qualifying Merger Consideration or the Qualifying Sale Consideration, respectively, is in a form other than cash, its value for purposes of applying the terms of Section 3.1, Section 3.2 and Section 3.3, respectively, shall be the fair market value thereof determined as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Securities shall be valued at the Average Price of such securities over the twenty (20) Trading Day period ending three (3) Trading Days prior to the distribution date (in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up the Corporation) or the closing date (in the event of a Qualifying Merger or a Qualifying Sale), as applicable, and any consideration other than cash or securities shall be valued by the Board in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.5 <u>Noncompliance</u>. In the event the requirements of this Section 3 are not complied with, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation shall forthwith either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Cause the closing of such Qualifying Merger or such Qualifying Sale, as applicable, to be postponed or delayed until such time as the requirements of this <u>Section 3</u> have been complied with; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Terminate or abandon such Qualifying Merger or such Qualifying Sale, as applicable, in which event (for the avoidance of doubt) the powers (including voting powers), if any, and the preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, if any, of Series E Preferred Stock shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be the same as or revert to, as applicable, the powers (including voting powers), if any, and the preferences and relative, participating, optional, special or other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, if any, existing prior to such Qualifying Merger or such Qualifying Sale, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Dividends</u>. If the Corporation declares or pays a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock, whether such dividend or distribution is payable in cash, securities, or other property, including the purchase or redemption by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries of shares of Common Stock for cash, securities, or property, but excluding (i) any dividend or distribution payable on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock and (ii) any repurchases of Common Stock held by employees or consultants of the Corporation upon termination of their employment or services pursuant to agreements providing for such repurchase, the Corporation shall simultaneously declare and pay a dividend on the Series E Preferred Stock on a pro rata basis with the Common Stock determined on an as-converted basis assuming all Shares had been converted pursuant to Section 6 as of immediately prior to the record date of the applicable dividend (or if no record date is fixed, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividends are to be determined).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Voting</u>. The holders of the Series E Preferred Stock shall have no voting power and no right to vote on any matter at any time, either as a separate series or class or together with any other series or class of share of capital stock, and shall not be entitled to call a meeting of such holders for any purpose nor shall they be entitled to participate in any meeting of the holders of Common Stock, except as provided in this Section 5 or as otherwise required by the DGCL. To the extent that under the DGCL the vote of the holders of Series E Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class or series, as applicable, is required to authorize a given action of the Corporation, the affirmative vote or consent of a majority of the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock, voting together in the aggregate and not in separate series unless required under the DGCL, represented at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is presented or by written consent of the a majority of the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock (except as otherwise may be required under the DGCL), voting together in the aggregate and not in separate series unless required under the DGCL, shall constitute the approval of such action by both the class or the series, as applicable. Holders of the Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to written notice of all stockholder meetings or written consents (and copies of proxy materials and other information sent to stockholders) with respect to which they would be entitled to vote, which notice would be provided pursuant to the bylaws of the Corporation and the DGCL.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>Conversion</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2 <u>Right to Convert</u>. Subject to the provisions of Sections 10 and 11 and this Section 6, at any time and from time to time on or after the Date of Issuance, any holder of Series E Preferred Stock shall have the right by written election to the Corporation to convert all or any portion of the outstanding Shares of Series E Preferred Stock held by such holder to a number of Common Stock determined by dividing the Stated Value of such share of Series E Preferred Stock by the Conversion Price then in effect. The conversion price per Share as of the date hereof shall be $1.00 (as adjusted from time to time in accordance with this Certificate of Designation, the "**Conversion Price**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3 <u>Procedures for Conversion; Effect of Conversion</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Procedures for Holder Conversion</u>. In order to effectuate a conversion of Shares of Series E Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6.1, a holder shall (a) submit a written election to the Corporation that such holder elects to convert Shares, the number of Shares elected to be converted and (b) surrender, along with such written election, to the Corporation the certificate or certificates representing the Shares being converted, duly assigned or endorsed for transfer to the Corporation (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers relating thereto) or, in the event the certificate or certificates are lost, stolen, or missing, accompanied by an affidavit of loss executed by the holder. The conversion of such Shares hereunder shall be deemed effective as of the date of surrender of such Series E Preferred Stock certificate or certificates or delivery of such affidavit of loss. Upon the receipt by the Corporation of a written election and the surrender of such certificate(s) and accompanying materials, the Corporation shall as promptly as practicable (but in any event within ten (10) days thereafter) deliver to the relevant holder (a) a certificate in such holder's name (or the name of such holder's designee as stated in the written election) for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled upon conversion of the applicable Shares and, if applicable (b) a certificate in such holder's (or the name of such holder's designee as stated in the written election) for the number of Shares of Series E Preferred Stock represented by the certificate or certificates delivered to the Corporation for conversion but otherwise not elected to be converted pursuant to the written election. All shares of capital stock issued hereunder by the Corporation shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable, free and clear of all taxes, liens, charges, and encumbrances with respect to the issuance thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Effect of Conversion</u>. All Shares of Series E Preferred Stock converted as provided in this Section 6.2 shall no longer be deemed outstanding as of the effective time of the applicable conversion and all rights with respect to such Shares shall immediately cease and terminate as of such time other than the right of the holder to receive shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4 <u>Limitations on Conversion.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share which a holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Corporation shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round to the next whole share, with 0.5 shares being rounded up to one whole share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to Section 10, the Corporation shall not effect any conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, and a holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Series E Preferred Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion, such holder or any Attribution Party (defined below) will hold or have held, beneficially or of record, more than 9.9% of the aggregate Common Stock outstanding of the Corporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Reissuance of Series E Preferred Stock</u>. Any Shares of Series E Preferred Stock redeemed, converted, or otherwise acquired by the Corporation or any Subsidiary shall be cancelled and retired as authorized and issued shares of capital stock of the Corporation and no such Shares shall thereafter be reissued, sold, or transferred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Conversion Price Adjustments</u>. The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time after the Series E Original Issue Date as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.1 <u>Split or Subdivision of Common Stock</u>. In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the Series E Original Issue Date, a record date is fixed for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, as of such record date, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.2 <u>Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock</u>. In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the Series E Original Issue Date, the Corporation shall issue any Additional Shares of Common Stock without consideration or for consideration per share less than the then effective Conversion Price, then, as of such issuance date, the Series E Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.3 <u>Issuance of Convertible Securities</u>. In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the Series E Original Issue Date, the Corporation shall issue any Convertible Securities without consideration or for consideration per share less than the then effective Conversion Price, then, as of such issuance date, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable with respect to such Convertible Securities, with the number of shares issuable with respect to Convertible Securities determined from time to time as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, including without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential anti-dilution adjustments) of such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such Convertible Securities were issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event of any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities, the Conversion Price, to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such Convertible Securities, shall be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such consideration upon the exercise of any such Convertible Securities; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon the termination or expiration of any such Convertible Securities, the Conversion Price, to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such Convertible Securities, shall be recomputed to reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.4 <u>Combination of Common Stock</u>. In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the Series E Original Issue Date, a record date is fixed for the effectuation of a combination of outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, as of such record date, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.5 <u>Reclassification or Recapitalization of Common Stock</u>. In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the Series E Original Issue Date, there shall be a reclassification or recapitalization of outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, a Qualifying Merger or a Qualifying Sale), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, provision shall be made so that the holders of Series E Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of Series E Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such reclassification or recapitalization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be made in the application of the provisions of this section with respect to the rights of the holders of Series E Preferred Stock after the reclassification or recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this section (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares received upon conversion of Series E Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalently as may be practicable. The provisions of this section shall similarly apply to successive qualifying reclassifications or recapitalizations of outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, a Qualifying Merger or a Qualifying Sale).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.6 <u>Certificate as to Adjustments</u>. The Corporation shall, upon the written request delivered to the Corporation at the principal office of the Corporation at any time by any holder of Series E Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth the Conversion Price at the time in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Reservation of Common Stock Issuable Upon Conversion</u>. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all shares of Series E Preferred Stock then outstanding; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all shares of Series E Preferred Stock then outstanding then, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the holders of Series E Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, take such corporate action necessary to increase the total number of authorized shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Beneficial Ownership Limitations.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Corporation shall not effect any conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, and a holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Series E Preferred Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion, such holder of Series E Preferred Stock (together with such holder's Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder's Affiliates (such Persons, "**Attribution Parties**")) would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding of the Corporation (the "**Beneficial Ownership Limitation**"). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such applicable Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such applicable Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Corporation subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such applicable Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 10, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall not issue to any Attribution Party any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series E Preferred Stock, to the extent such shares after giving effect to such issuance after conversion and when added to the number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable upon conversion of any other Convertible Securities held by such Attribution Party would (a) beneficially own in excess of 9.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances or (b) control in excess of 9.9% of the total voting power of the Corporation outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances that are entitled to vote on a matter being voted on by holders of the Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 10, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall not issue to any Attribution Party any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series E Preferred Stock, to the extent such shares after giving effect to such issuance after conversion and when added to the number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable upon conversion of any other Convertible Securities held by such Attribution Party would (a) beneficially own in excess of 19.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances (the "**Maximum Aggregate Ownership Amount**") or (b) control in excess of 19.9% of the total voting power of the Corporation outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances that are entitled to vote on a matter being voted on by holders of the Common Stock (the "**Maximum Aggregate Voting Amount**"). For purposes of this Section 10, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Limitations Conversions; Prior to Stockholder Approval.</u> Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Corporation shall not issue, and no Holder shall have the right to receive shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock to the extent that, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to (i) the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, (ii) the exercise of any warrants issued in connection with the issuance of the Series E Preferred Stock, and (iii) the exercise, conversion or exchange of any other securities issued in the same financing transaction or any related transaction that are required to be aggregated therewith pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(d) (or any successor rule), which would exceed 19.9% of the Corporation's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the closing of such financing transaction (the "Exchange Cap").

Any conversion otherwise prohibited by this section, shall be automatically reduced such that the number of shares issued upon conversion, together with all other shares previously issued pursuant to the financing transaction, and any related transaction, subject to aggregation under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(d), does not exceed the Exchange Cap. Any portion of the conversion amount that cannot be converted due to the Exchange Cap shall remain outstanding and eligible for conversion following stockholder approval. The Corporation shall not affect any adjustment to the conversion of Price Cap, issue additional securities, or take any other action that would permit the issuance of shares in excess of the Exchange Cap prior to obtaining the requisite stockholder approval.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Notices</u>. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given: (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by facsimile or e-mail of a PDF document (with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next business day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient; or (d) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Such communications must be sent (a) to the Corporation, at its principal executive offices and (b) to any stockholder, at such holder's address at it appears in the stock records of the Corporation (or at such other address for a stockholder as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 12).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Construction Consistent with Nasdaq Rules.</u> This Certificate of Designation shall be construed and interpreted at all times in a manner that is consistent with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(a), 5635(b), 5635(d), IM-5635-2 and IM-5635-4. To the extent any provision of this Certificate of Designation or any other agreement or instrument is or becomes inconsistent with any such rule or interpretive guidance, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to comply therewith, and any such inconsistent provision shall be of no force or effect; provided, however, that no such reformation shall increase, expand, enlarge, or otherwise enhance the economic rights, governance rights, voting rights, conversion rights, dividend rights, liquidation rights, or any other rights, privileges or preferences of the holders of Series D Preferred Stock beyond those expressly set forth in this Certificate of Designation as originally filed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Miscellaneous</u>. Electronic signatures shall suffice as originals for purposes of this Certificate of Designation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Generally.</u> Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u> (the "**Notice of Exercise**"). Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and this Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, there is no circumstance that would require the Company to net cash settle this Warrant. For purposes of this Warrant, the term "**Trading Day**" means any day on which the Nasdaq is open for trading, including any day on which the Nasdaq is open for trading for a period of time less than the customary time.

<sup>1</sup> Note: Aggregate amount not to exceed 500,000. Seller to provide proportionate amounts for each Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Exercise Price</u>. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $[____]<sup>2</sup>, subject to adjustment hereunder (the "**Exercise Price**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Mechanics</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise</u>. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder's or its designee's balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system ("**DWAC**") if the Company is then a participant in such system and there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate representing the Warrant Shares, registered in the Company's share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares set forth in the Notice of Exercise to the address specified by the Holder in such Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company, and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the "**Warrant Share Delivery Date**"); provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price is received by the Company by such date. Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, Holder shall be entitled to rescind its exercise. As used herein, "**Standard Settlement Period**" means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Nasdaq with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise</u>. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>No Fractional Shares or Scrip</u>. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share that the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share of Common Stock.

<sup>2</sup> Price will be fixed at $5; $7; and $9, respectively, for each tranche of 500,000 Warrant Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Charges, Taxes and Expenses</u>. The issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form, attached hereto as Exhibit B, duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>Reservation of Common Stock</u>. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of all Warrant Shares; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient therefor then, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the Holder, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, take such corporate action necessary to increase the total number of authorized shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) <u>Closing of Books</u>. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner that prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Limitations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Limitations on Exercise; Prior to Stockholder Approval</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Corporation shall not issue, and no Holder shall have the right to receive shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant to the extent that, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to (i) the exercise of this Warrant, (ii) the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, and (iii) the exercise, conversion or exchange or any other securities issued in the same financing transaction or any related transaction that are required to be aggregated therewith pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) (or any successor rule), which would exceed 19.9% of the Corporation's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the closing of such financing transaction (the "Exchange Cap"

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Any exercise otherwise prohibited by this section, shall be automatically reduced such that the number of shares issued upon exercise, together with all other shares previously issued pursuant to the financing transaction, and any related transaction, subject to aggregation under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), does not exceed the Exchange Cap. Any portion of the exercise amount that cannot be exercised due to the Exchange Cap shall remain outstanding and eligible for exercise following stockholder approval. The Corporation shall not affect any adjustment to the Exercise Price, issue additional securities, or take any other action that would permit the issuance of shares in excess of the Exchange Cap prior to obtaining the requisite stockholder approval.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Beneficial Ownership Limitations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant to the contrary, the Holder shall not have the right to exercise this Warrant, and no share of Common Stock shall be issued or issuable upon delivery of an Exercise Notice, to the extent that, after giving effect to the exercise, such Holder (together with such Holder's Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder's Affiliates (such Persons, "**Attribution Parties**")) would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding of the Company (the "**Beneficial Ownership Limitation**"). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such applicable Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon completion of the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unexercised portion of Common Stock represented by this Warrant and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such applicable Attribution Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Corporation shall not issue to any Attribution Party any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, to the extent such shares after giving effect to such issuance after exercise and when added to the number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable upon conversion of any other Convertible Securities held by such Attribution Party would (a) beneficially own in excess of 9.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances or (b) control in excess of 9.9% of the total voting power of the Corporation outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances that are entitled to vote on a matter being voted on by holders of the Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 10, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall not issue to any Attribution Party any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, to the extent such shares after giving effect to such issuance after conversion and when added to the number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable upon conversion of any other Convertible Securities held by such Attribution Party would (a) beneficially own in excess of 19.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances (the "**Maximum Aggregate Ownership Amount**") or (b) control in excess of 19.9% of the total voting power of the Corporation outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances that are entitled to vote on a matter being voted on by holders of the Common Stock (the "**Maximum Aggregate Voting Amount**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Except as otherwise set forth in this Section, for purposes of Section 2 beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Adjustments</u>. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant remains unchanged as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant, a record date is fixed for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, as of such record date, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be appropriately adjusted so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant, the Company shall issue any additional shares of Common Stock without consideration or for consideration per share less than the then effective Exercise Price, then, as of such issuance date, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant, the Company shall issue any securities convertible into, or entitling the holder to receive, directly or indirectly, shares of Common Stock or rights, options or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire shares of Common Stock ("Common Stock Equivalents") without consideration or for consideration per share less than the then effective Exercise Price, then, as of such issuance date, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable with respect to such Common Stock Equivalents, with the number of shares issuable with respect to Common Stock Equivalents determined from time to time as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, including without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential anti-dilution adjustments) of such Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such Common Stock Equivalents were issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) In the event of any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Common Stock Equivalents, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such Common Stock Equivalents, shall be recomputed to reflect such change; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Upon the termination or expiration of any such Common Stock Equivalents, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant, to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such Common Stock Equivalents, shall be recomputed to reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of such Common Stock Equivalents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, a record date is fixed for the effectuation of a combination of outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, as of such record date, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In the event that, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, there shall be a reclassification or recapitalization of outstanding shares of Common Stock, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise would have been entitled on such reclassification or recapitalization. The provisions of this section shall similarly apply to successive qualifying reclassifications or recapitalizations of outstanding shares of Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3 shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification. The Company shall, upon the written request delivered to the Company at any time by the Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth each adjustment and readjustment made pursuant to this Section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Transfer of Warrant</u>. This Warrant may not be transferred in whole or in part without prior written consent of the Company, which may be withheld in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Miscellaneous</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash</u>. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant</u>. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to this Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of this Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc</u>. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Trading Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Trading Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Jurisdiction</u>. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Restrictions</u>. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Notices.</u> Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered hereunder shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Successors and Assigns</u>. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Amendment</u>. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holders of a majority of the Warrant Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Severability</u>. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

## Exhibit 10.1

**Exhibit 10.1**

**EXCHANGE AGREEMENT**

THIS EXCHANGE AGREEMENT (this "<u>Agreement</u>") is made as of June 16, 2026, by and among the undersigned holders (each, a "<u>Holder</u>" and, together, the "<u>Holders</u>") and Olenox Industries Inc., a Delaware Corporation (the "<u>Company</u>").

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Holders collectively own all of the Series D Preferred Stock (the "<u>Existing Preferred</u>") of the Company.

WHEREAS, the Holders desire to surrender the Existing Preferred in exchange for an equal number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock (the "<u>New Preferred</u>") of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Company desires to accept the surrender of the Existing Preferred in exchange for the issuance of the New Preferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

ACCORDINGLY, the parties agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Exchange</u>. For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Holder hereby surrenders to the Company all of the Holder's right, title and interest in and to the Existing Preferred identified on <u>Schedule I</u>; and in exchange for the foregoing, the Company hereby issues to each Holder an equal number of shares of New Preferred (the "<u>Exchange</u>"). For avoidance of doubt, the ratio of the Exchange shall be one (1) share of New Preferred for each one (1) share of Existing Preferred surrendered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Cancellation of Existing Preferred</u>. Immediately following the Exchange, every share of Existing Preferred exchanged hereunder shall be deemed cancelled and retired and shall no longer be outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Terms of New Preferred</u>. The New Preferred shall have the rights, preferences and privileges set forth in the Certificate of Designation attached as <u>Exhibit A</u>. Each Holder acknowledges that the New Preferred contains certain limitations on conversion and issuance designed to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635, including an Exchange Cap that limits issuances prior to stockholder approval.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Olenox Industries Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Borrower</u>"), hereby promises to pay to the order of [___________] ("<u>Holder</u>"), the principal sum of **$[___________] USD** (the "<u>Principal</u>"), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts which may be due and payable in accordance with the terms set forth herein. This unsecured promissory note (this "<u>Promissory Note</u>") is hereby delivered pursuant to 2.02(a) of that certain Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof, by and among Borrower, Holder, and the other parties thereto (the "<u>Purchase Agreement</u>"). This Promissory Note is delivered together with the other promissory notes (such promissory notes, together with this Promissory Note, each a "<u>Seller Note</u>", and collectively, the "<u>Seller Notes</u>") made by Borrower as of the date hereof made payable to each holder of such note, including Holder, identified on <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto (each such note holder, a "<u>Note Holder</u>", and collectively, the "<u>Note Holders</u>"). Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Payment Provisions</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Principal and interest on this Promissory Note shall be due and payable as set forth herein. Interest (the "<u>Interest</u>") shall accrue on the outstanding balance of the Principal at a rate of ten percent (10.0%) per annum, beginning on the date of this Promissory Note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Beginning on the date that is 90 days following the date of this Note, Buyer shall make quarterly Interest-only payments to Holder, at such times and in such amounts set forth on the attached Schedule 1, provided that all amounts outstanding under this Promissory Note, including all accrued and unpaid Interest and any other amounts payable under this Promissory Note, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date, unless otherwise provided in <u>Section 2</u> or <u>Section 3</u>, as applicable. "<u>Maturity Date</u>" means the earlier of (a) the third anniversary of the date on which the first payment hereunder is due and (b) the date on which all amounts under this Promissory Note shall become due and payable pursuant to <u>Section 2</u> or <u>Section 3</u>, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) All payments of Interest and Principal will be due and payable in cash or other immediately available funds and in United States Dollars ("<u>USD</u>"). If any day on which a payment is due pursuant to the terms of this Promissory Note is not a day on which banks in the State of Delaware are generally open, such payment shall be due on the following business day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Any outstanding Principal under this Promissory Note and any accrued Interest thereupon may be paid early, in whole or part, at any time without penalty. All payments received on account of the indebtedness evidenced by this Promissory Note shall be applied first to Interest accrued, and the remainder, if any, to the outstanding Principal balance. Prepayments shall not reduce, defer, or otherwise modify the amount or timing of any payment required under this Promissory Note except as specifically described in this Section 1(d)(i). For the avoidance of doubt, following any partial prepayment, the Borrower shall remain obligated to make each scheduled payment in the full amount and on the date specified on Schedule 1, and any partial prepayment shall reduce the final balloon payment or the last scheduled installment(s) due under this Promissory Note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Prepayment of Principal and/or Interest under this Promissory Note shall be made pro rata among this Promissory Note and all other Seller Notes based on the portion of the outstanding principal amount of each such Seller Note as a percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all such Seller Notes at the time of prepayment (the principal amount of each Seller Note as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount of all Seller Notes as of the date hereof is set forth on <u>Exhibit A)</u>. The Borrower shall not prepay any portion of this Promissory Note without simultaneously prepaying each of the other Seller Notes in the same proportion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) All payments made on account of the indebtedness evidenced by this Promissory Note shall be made to Holder at such place or to such account as Holder may specify. Holder may update its payment information by providing notice of the same in writing to Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Events of Default</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Default</u>. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (defined below), Holder shall have the right without presentment, notice or demand of any kind, to either (i) convert this Promissory Note pursuant to Section 2(c) or (ii) accelerate this Promissory Note and to declare all of the obligations of Borrower under this Promissory Note immediately due and payable. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the outstanding Principal balance hereunder, along with any past due Interest on this Promissory Note, shall bear interest at a rate equal to twelve and one half percent 12.5% per annum, calculated from the date of such Event of Default until fully paid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Event of Default</u>. For purposes of this Promissory Note, "<u>Event of Default</u>" shall mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following: (i) Borrower fails to make any timely payment of any amount due under this Promissory Note or any other Seller Note, (ii) Borrower fails to make any timely payment of any amount due under any other loan agreement or promissory note or material contract to which Borrower is a party within five (5) business days after notice from Holder that such payment is overdue; (iii) Borrower materially breaches any of its covenants or agreements hereunder or under any other agreement or instrument between Borrower and Holder unless such failure is capable of cure, as determined by Holder in Holder's reasonable discretion, in which case Borrower shall have thirty (30) days thereafter to effectuate such cure; (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of Borrower; or (v) the execution of an assignment for the benefit of creditors by Borrower or the voluntary or involuntary filing or commencement for any proceedings for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq.), as may be amended from time to time, or insolvency laws or any laws relating to the relief of debtors, readjustment of any indebtedness, reorganization, composition, extension of debt, or the appointment of a receiver or trustee for, by or against Borrower or any of its assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Conversion on Default</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Subject to the limitations contained in this Note if at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then at the election of Holder, this Promissory Note will convert into that number of shares of Common Stock of Borrower equal to the quotient (rounded down to the nearest whole share) obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued interest of this Promissory Note on the date of such conversion by (y) the greater of the listed price per share of Common Stock of Borrower on the Nasdaq as of the date of conversion or $5.00.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not issue to Holder any shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion of this Note (the "<u>Conversion Shares</u>"), to the extent such shares after giving effect to such issuance after conversion and when added to the number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable upon conversion of any shares of any Preferred Stock or exercise of any Warrants issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (together with such Holder's affiliates), would (a) beneficially own in excess of 19.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances or (b) control in excess of 19.9% of the total voting power of the Company's securities outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuances that are entitled to vote on a matter being voted on by holders of the Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) In no event shall any conversion of this Note exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation as defined in the Certificate of Designation. No Holder shall be entitled to exercise any right to convert this Promissory Note and the Company will have no obligation to honor such conversion if, after giving effect to such conversion, such Holder, together with any Attribution Party (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) would be the beneficial owner of an amount of Common Stock of Buyer in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Remedies</u>. If any Event of Default shall occur, Holder shall have all rights and remedies provided under (i) this Promissory Note, including, without limitation, as set forth in <u>Section 2</u>, and (ii) applicable law (including, without limitation, all other legal and equitable remedies available to Holder). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 2(b)(v) above, all outstanding Principal and Interest, and all other amounts, fees, costs, and charges due or in connection with and payable under this Promissory Note, shall, without demand, presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate, or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, immediately and automatically become due and payable in full.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Severable Provisions</u>. The provisions of this Promissory Note are intended to be severable and divisible and the invalidity or unenforceability of a provision or term herein shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remainder of this Promissory Note or any part hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Notice</u>. All notices, requests, demands, or other communications that may be or are required or permitted to be served or given hereunder (in this section collectively called "<u>Notices</u>") shall be made pursuant to and in compliance with Section 10.03 of the Purchase Agreement.

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Promissory Note, nor consent to any departure by Borrower here from, which, in either any case, shall result in any terms or conditions of this Promissory Note being more favorable to Holder than the terms and conditions provided to any other Note Holder under any other Seller Note, including but not limited to terms relating to interest rate, maturity date, or repayment schedule, shall, in any event, be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by all Note Holders and Borrower, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Permissible Interest</u>. In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of money advanced hereunder exceed the highest lawful rate permitted under applicable law. If any such excess amount is inadvertently paid by Borrower or inadvertently received by Holder, such excess shall be returned to Borrower or credited as a payment of Principal. It is the intent hereof that Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and Holder not receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by Borrower under applicable law.
