The Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Agreement, the Company will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Mistral (the "Merger"). At the closing of the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Agreement, the Company shall pay an aggregate amount of $175,000,000, comprised of (i) $122,500,000 of shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Agreement, of which (a) $17,500,000 shall be deposited into an escrow account for the purpose of securing the obligations of the Stockholder as set forth in the agreement and (b) the remaining $105,000,000, shall be paid in seven equal installments within twenty days following the closing of the Merger, and (ii) $52,500,000 of shares of Common Stock shall be deposited into an escrow account and released as follows: (x) $26,250,000 on the first anniversary of the closing of the Merger, (y) $13,125,000 on the second anniversary of the closing of the Merger, and (z) $13,125,000 on the third anniversary of the closing of the Merger.

The shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Merger are to be registered for resale pursuant to a resale registration statement to be entered into at closing of the Merger, which is attached as Exhibit D of the Agreement.

Each of the Company, Mistral, and the Stockholder has provided customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Agreement. The completion of the Merger is subject to various closing conditions, including: (a) the requisite stockholder consent of Mistral being obtained; (b) the requisite Consents (as defined in the Agreement) being made or obtained by Mistral; (c) the requisite authorizations, Consents, orders or approvals of, or declarations or filings with, and all expirations or early terminations of waiting periods required from, or voluntarily entered into with, any Governmental Authority (as defined in the Agreement) under applicable laws shall have been filed, have occurred or been obtained; (d) the absence of any applicable laws, judgment, injunction, order or decree (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) threatened by or pending before any Governmental Authority which seeks to prohibit the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement or obtain damages in connection therewith, and no such judgment, injunction, order or decree has been entered and not subsequently dismissed or discharged with prejudice; and (e) the absence of any Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Agreement) with respect to Mistral.

The Agreement contains customary termination rights for both the Company and Mistral, including, but not limited to, (i) the mutual written agreement of the Company and the Stockholder; (ii) by the Company or Mistral if there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the other party in the Agreement, which breach (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in the Agreement and (B) (x) such breach cannot be cured by the End Date (defined below) or (y) if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured by the earlier of (1) 30 calendar days following receipt of written notice of such breach or (2) the date that is three calendar days prior to the End Date; (iii) by the Company if within 24 hours following the execution and delivery of the Agreement, Mistral has not delivered to the Company a copy of the executed stockholder consent of Mistral; (iv) the written notice by the Company or Mistral if the closing of the Merger has not occurred on or before May 9, 2026 (the "End Date"); (v) by either the Company of Mistral upon delivery of written notice to the other if any Governmental Authority shall have issued or entered any judgment, order or decree, enacted any law or taken any other action which, in any such case, (a) permanently restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, (b) would prevent the closing from occurring as contemplated by this Agreement on or prior to the applicable time on the End Date or (c) has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or (vi) by the Company upon delivery of written notice to Mistral, if there shall have occurred a Material Adverse Effect.

The Merger is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026.

&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) Within 120 days after the Closing, Parent may object to the calculation of Company Cash, Company Debt, Transaction Expenses or Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment included in the Closing Spreadsheet (collectively, the "<u>Calculations</u>"), by delivering to the Stockholder a notice (the "<u>Parent Notice</u>") setting forth Parent's calculation of Company Cash, Company Debt, Transaction Expenses and the Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment and the amount by which Company Cash, Company Debt, Transaction Expenses or Company Net Working Capital as calculated by Parent is more or less than Estimated Company Cash, Estimated Company Debt, Estimated Transaction Expenses or the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment, in each case together with supporting documentation, information and calculations.

&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 Stockholder, after receiving any relevant information which it may reasonably request, may object to the calculation of Company Cash, Company Debt, Transaction Expenses or Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment set forth in the Parent Notice by providing written notice of such objection to Parent within 30 days after Parent's delivery of the Parent Notice (the "<u>Notice of Objection</u>"), together with supporting documentation, information and calculations. Any matters not expressly set forth in the Notice of Objection shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Stockholder on behalf of the Stockholder.

&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) If the Stockholder timely provides the Notice of Objection, then Parent and the Stockholder shall confer in good faith for a period of up to 30 days following delivery of the Notice of Objection in an attempt to resolve any disputed matter set forth in the Notice of Objection, and any resolution by them shall be in writing and shall be final and binding on the 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;(d) If, after the 30 day period set forth in Section 2.07(c), Parent and the Stockholder cannot resolve any matter set forth in the Notice of Objection, then Parent and the Stockholder shall engage Grant Thornton LLP, or, if such firm is not able or willing to so act, another nationally recognized auditing firm acceptable to both Parent and the Stockholder and independent of both the Company and Parent (the "<u>Reviewing Accountant</u>") to review only the matters in the Notice of Objection that are still disputed by Parent and the Stockholder. The Reviewing Accountant shall base its review solely on the presentations and supporting material provided by the Parties and not on an independent review. After its review, the Reviewing Accountant shall promptly (and in any event within 60 days following its engagement) determine the resolution of such remaining disputed matters, which determination shall be final and binding on the Parties, and the Reviewing Accountant shall provide Parent and the Stockholder with a calculation of Company Cash, Company Debt, Transaction Expenses and Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment in accordance with such determination.

&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) If the Final Amount is less than the Closing Amount, then within two Business Days following the final determination of the Final Adjustment, and provided there is no dispute between the Parties, the Parties shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to immediately release to Parent, as directed by Stockholder in Stockholder's sole discretion, one of the following (or a combination thereof): (i) a number of Parent Payment Shares equal in value to the amount of the Final Adjustment, (ii) an amount in cash equal to the Final Adjustment (provided there is sufficient cash in the Escrow Account), or (iii) a combination of Parent Payment Shares and cash, in each case totaling the amount of the Final Adjustment. For purposes of this Section 2.07(e), the number of Parent Payment Shares to be released to Parent shall be calculated using the Parent Trading 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;(f) If the Final Amount is greater than the Closing Amount, then within ten Business Days following the final determination of the Final Adjustment, and provided there is no dispute between the Parties, Parent shall pay the amount of the Final Adjustment in Parent Payment Shares to the Stockholder; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if such payment would exceed 19.99% of the outstanding Parent Common Stock on the date of payment or if Parent is otherwise unable to issue all of the Parent Payment Shares required to be issued under this Agreement, the portion of the Parent Payment Shares exceeding 19.99% or such portion that Parent is otherwise unable to issue shall instead be paid in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Stockholder.

&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) If the Final Amount is neither greater than nor less than the Closing Amount, then there will be no additional adjustments, and the Final Adjustment will be deemed to be $0.

&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 Final Adjustment shall be treated as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 8.04 <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;(a) Subject to the other provisions of this ARTICLE VIII, neither Parent, nor the Stockholder, as the case may be, shall be liable for breach of any representation or warranty pursuant to Section 8.01(a) or Section 8.02(a), as applicable, unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses which may be recovered from the Stockholder or Parent, as applicable, equals or exceeds $875,000 (the "<u>Basket</u>"), at which point the Stockholder or Parent, as applicable, shall only be liable for Losses in excess of the Basket; *provided, however*, that, except with respect to Fraud, in no event shall the aggregate liability of the Stockholder with respect to the General Representations or Parent in respect of the Parent Representations exceed $17,500,000 (the "<u>Cap</u>"). For clarity, the Basket and the Cap do not apply to Fraud or breaches of Fundamental Reps or the IP Representations. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.27 as applied to each UVision Contract, any such breach shall not be subject to the 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;(b) Except with respect to Fraud, the obligations of the Stockholder to indemnify the Parent Indemnitees pursuant to Section 8.01 shall not exceed the total consideration actually received by the Stockholder.

&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 amount of Losses subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.01, shall be reduced by any insurance or other proceeds previously received by Parent or any Parent Indemnitee with respect to such Losses (net of any deductible or co-payment, actual increase in insurance premiums attributable to such recovery and the reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with such recovery) from any insurance carrier pursuant to any insurance coverage held by or on behalf of Parent or its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Company) or any other third party under any other indemnity or contribution agreements, Contracts or otherwise with respect to such Losses. If any insurance or other proceeds are subsequently recovered by Parent or its Subsidiaries from an insurance carrier after payment has been made by the Stockholder to the Parent Indemnitees in accordance with this ARTICLE VIII with respect to the Losses to which such insurance or other third party recoveries relate, then Parent shall promptly remit to the Stockholder such insurance or other third party recoveries (net of any deductible or co-payment, actual increase in insurance premiums attributable to such recovery and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with recovery) for further payment to the Stockholder; *provided* that in no event shall Parent have any obligation hereunder to remit to the Stockholder any portion of such insurance or other third party recoveries in excess of the indemnification payment or payments actually received from the Stockholder with respect to such Losses.

&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) Any Losses for which any Parent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such Losses constituting a breach of more than one (1) covenant or agreement.

Section 8.05 <u>Claims Procedure</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>Notice of Claims</u>. If any Parent Indemnitee believes that it has suffered or incurred any Loss for which it is entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII, the Parent Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Stockholder ("<u>Notice of Claim</u>"). If any Proceeding is instituted by or against a third party with respect to which any Parent Indemnitee intends to claim any Losses, the Parent Indemnitee shall notify the Stockholder of such Proceeding.

&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>Third Party Claims</u>. If any Parent Indemnitee determines to seek indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII with respect to any Proceeding brought against it by a third party (a "<u>Third Party Claim</u>"), then the Parent Indemnitee shall notify the Stockholder thereof as promptly as practicable and in any event within thirty (30) days after receiving any written notice from a third party; provided that any failure to so notify or any delay in notifying the Stockholder shall not relieve the Stockholder of the Stockholder's obligations hereunder except and only to the extent that the Stockholder is actually prejudiced by such failure or delay. Once the Parent Indemnitee has given notice of the matter to the Stockholder, the Stockholder may defend, at his sole and cost and expense, against the matter so long as (i) the Stockholder notifies the Parent Indemnitee in writing, within thirty (30) days after the Parent Indemnitee has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the Stockholder will indemnify the Parent Indemnitee from and against the entirety of any Losses the Parent Indemnitee may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim and (ii) the Stockholder possesses financial resources that would reasonably be expected to be sufficient to defend against the Third Party Claim and to fulfill the Stockholder's indemnification obligations hereunder; *provided*, that the Stockholder shall not have the right to defend any such matter (A) that seeks to impose criminal liability on the Parent Indemnitee, (B) if the Stockholder has failed or is failing to actively and diligently defend in good faith such matter, and is provided written notice of such failure by the Parent Indemnitee and such failure is not reasonably cured within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice; (C) if such Third Party Claim includes a claim to obtain an injunction, restraining order, declaratory relief or other non-monetary relief or (D) if the Parent Indemnitee has been advised by counsel that there exists a conflict of interest between the Parent Indemnitee and the Stockholder in connection with the defense of the Third Party Claim that would make representation by the same counsel or the counsel selected by the Stockholder inappropriate. In the event the Stockholder is entitled to defend such Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section 8.05(b) and notifies the Parent Indemnitee in accordance herewith that the Stockholder is assuming the defense of such matter (I) the Stockholder shall defend the Parent Indemnitee against the matter with counsel reasonably acceptable to Parent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, (II) the Parent Indemnitee may retain separate counsel at its sole cost and expense and (III) the Stockholder shall not consent to the entry of a judgment with respect to the matter or enter into any settlement without the written consent of the Parent Indemnitee; *provided* that the consent of the Parent Indemnitee shall not be required if such judgment or settlement (x) is for only money damages, (y) includes, as a condition thereof, an express, unconditional release of the Parent Indemnitees from any liability or obligation with respect to such Third Party Claim and (z) does not involve the admission of liability. If the Stockholder elects not to, or is not permitted by the terms of this Agreement to, assume the defense of and indemnification for such matter, then the Parent Indemnitee shall proceed diligently to defend such matter; *provided*, that the Parent Indemnitee shall not settle, adjust or compromise such matter, or admit any liability with respect to such matter, without the prior written consent of the Stockholder, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 8.06 <u>Exclusive Remedy</u>. The rights of the Parent Indemnitees to indemnification by or on behalf of the Stockholder relating to this Agreement shall be limited to those contained in this ARTICLE VIII, and such indemnification rights shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parent Indemnitees subsequent to the Effective Time with respect to any matter in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or arising in connection herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8.06 shall limit (a) liability for any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Parties which by its terms contemplates performance after the Closing or (b) any indemnification matter contemplated by Section 8.01(b) through Section 8.01(g).

Section 8.07 <u>Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments</u>. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration, unless otherwise required by Law.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Parties acknowledges that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement and that irreparable harm would result if this Agreement were not specifically enforced. Therefore, the rights and obligations of the Parties shall be enforceable by a decree of specific performance issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and shall be granted in connection therewith, without the necessity of posting a bond or other security or proving irreparable harm and without regard to the adequacy of any remedy at Law. A Party's right to specific performance and injunctive relief shall be in addition to all other legal or equitable remedies available to such Party.

A matter set forth in one section of the Disclosure Schedule need not be set forth in any other section of the Disclosure Schedule so long as its relevance to such other section of the Disclosure Schedule or Section of this Agreement is readily apparent on the face of the information disclosed in such Disclosure Schedule. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself) and the provision of monetary or other quantitative thresholds for disclosure on the Disclosure Schedule does not and shall not be deemed to create or imply a standard of materiality hereunder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself) and the provision of monetary or other quantitative thresholds for disclosure on the Parent Disclosure Schedule does not and shall not be deemed to create or imply a standard of materiality hereunder.

Section 10.05 <u>Severability</u>. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 10.06 <u>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by means of DocuSign, by scanned portable document format image and other electronic means, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature in ink or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as applicable, to the fullest extent and as provided for in any Law), all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties.

Section 10.07 <u>Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries</u>. This Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements (including the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein, including the Disclosure Schedules) (a) constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, other than the Confidentiality Agreement which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and (b) except as provided in Section 6.05(b) (which are intended for the benefit of only the Persons specifically named therein) is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Target Equityholder will keep in strict confidence, and will not, directly or indirectly, at any time, disclose, furnish, disseminate, make available or, except in the course of performing the Target Equityholder's duties as employee or consultant of the Acquired Company (if applicable), use any Trade Secrets or confidential business and technical information of the Acquired Company or any of Restricted Business Relations ("***<u>Confidential Information</u>***"), whatever its nature and form and without limitation as to when or how the Target Equityholder may have acquired such information. Such Confidential Information includes, without limitation, the Acquired Company's unique selling, manufacturing and servicing methods and business techniques, training, service and business manuals, proprietary software, promotional materials, training courses and other training and instructional materials, employee performance, compensation and other employee information, vendor and product information, customer and prospective customer lists, other customer and prospective customer information and other business information and know-how. The Target Equityholder specifically acknowledge that all such Confidential Information, whether reduced to writing, maintained on any form of electronic media, or maintained in the mind or memory of the Target Equityholder (if applicable) and whether compiled by the Acquired Company or the Target Equityholder, derives independent economic value from not being readily known to or ascertainable by proper means by others who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, that reasonable efforts have been made by the Acquired Company to maintain the secrecy of such information, that such information is the sole property of the Acquired Company and that any retention and use of such information by the Target Equityholder (except in the course of performing the Target Equityholder's duties and obligations to the Acquired Company, if applicable) is prohibited. The restrictions in this <u>Section 1(d)</u> shall survive until the earlier of sixty (60) months following the Effective Date, or such other time such Confidential Information otherwise becomes public through no fault of the Target Equityholder, except with respect to Trade Secrets, which shall be protected for so long as they remain Trade Secrets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Target Equityholder shall not have any obligation to keep confidential any such Confidential Information if and to the extent disclosure thereof is specifically required by law or any administrative or judicial decision, order, judgment, injunction, assessment, award, decree, ruling, charge, directive, writ or similar determination of any governmental authority; <u>provided</u>, however, that in the event disclosure by the Target Equityholder is required by applicable Law or Order, the Target Equityholder shall, to the extent reasonably possible or permissible, provide the Parent with prompt notice of such requirement prior to making any disclosure so that the Parent may seek an appropriate protective order. If a protective order or other remedy is not available, or if the Parent waives compliance with the provisions of this <u>Section 1(d)(i)</u>, the Target Equityholder or their representatives, as the case may be, may disclose to the Person requiring disclosure only that portion of such Confidential Information which the Target Equityholder are, in their reasonable determination, legally required or permitted to disclose. For purposes of this <u>Section 1</u>, "***<u>Trade Secrets</u>***" means anything that would constitute a "trade secret" under applicable law and, without limitation, all other inventions (whether patentable or not), industrial designs, discoveries, improvements, ideas, designs, models, formulae, specifications, technologies, processes, algorithms, architectures, layouts, look-and-feel, methodologies, patterns, compilations, data collections, drawings, blueprints, mask works, devices, methods, techniques, processes, know-how, confidential information, proprietary information, research and development, compositions, manufacturing and production processes and techniques, customer lists, supplier lists, pricing and cost information, business and marketing plans and proposals.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) Upon termination of the Target Equityholder' employment, consulting or other service provider relationship with the Acquired Company (if applicable), for any reason, or at any time upon the request of the Acquired Company, the Target Equityholder will return to the Acquired Company, in good condition, all property of the Acquired Company, including the originals and all copies of any materials that contain, reflect, summarize, describe, analyze or refer or relate to any items of information listed in <u>Section 1(e)(i)</u>. If such items are not so returned, then the Acquired Company will have the right to charge the Target Equityholder for all reasonable, documented damages, costs, attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred in searching for, taking, removing and/or recovering such property.

&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>Acknowledgment and Relief</u>. The Target Equityholder acknowledges that the Target Equityholder's obligations under this <u>Section 1</u> (i) are reasonable in applicable geographic scope, temporal duration, and scope of restricted activity; (ii) advance a legitimate economic interest of the Parent in the goodwill of the Acquired Company, Trade Secrets, and Confidential Information purchased in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (iii) do not impose an undue hardship on the Target Equityholder; and (iv) are adequately supported by consideration from the Parent for the benefit of the Target Equityholder on the date hereof. The Target Equityholder acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law available to the Parent for breach of any of the Target Equityholder' obligations under this <u>Section 1</u> may be inadequate; therefore, in addition to any other rights or remedies that the Acquired Company may have at law or in equity, temporary and permanent injunctive relief may be granted in any proceeding which may be brought to enforce any provision contained in this <u>Section 1</u>, without the necessity of proof of actual damage.

&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>Revisions by the Court</u>. If any court of competent jurisdiction shall at any time deem the term of any particular restrictive covenant contained in this <u>Section 1</u> too lengthy, the geographic area covered too extensive or the scope too broad, the other provisions of this <u>Section 1</u> shall nevertheless stand, the term shall be deemed to be the longest period permissible by law under the circumstances, the geographic area covered shall be deemed to comprise the largest territory permissible by law under the circumstances, and the scope shall be as broad as permissible by law under the circumstances. The court in each case shall modify the term, geographic area, and scope covered to the permissible duration, size or breadth, or shall otherwise blue pencil overly broad restrictions from the restrictive covenants of this <u>Section 1</u>, enforcing only the provisions permitted under applicable Law.

&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) Nothing contained in this <u>Section 1</u> limits the Target Equityholder' ability to file a charge or complaint with government agencies. Further, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit the Target Equityholder from: (a) communicating or reporting possible violations of any law, rule, or regulation to any government agency, (b) making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any law, rule or regulation, or (c) assisting a government agency investigation. This Agreement does not prevent the Target Equityholder from cooperating with or disclosing information to any government agency, participating in any investigation or litigation by any government agency regarding alleged violations of law, or testifying in any legislative, administrative, or judicial proceeding about criminal conduct or sexual harassment. This <u>Section 1</u> does not interfere with the right to disclose information about unlawful acts in the workplace, including, but not limited to, sexual harassment and sexual assault.

&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>Other Agreements</u>. The obligations and restrictions set forth in this <u>Section 1</u> are in addition to the provisions of any employment, consulting or other agreement between the Parent or the Acquired Company, as applicable, and the Target Equityholder that may be entered into from time to time and addresses the same or similar subject matter covered by this <u>Section 1</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <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>Governing Law; Jurisdiction and Venue</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) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of Laws 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each of the Parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court within the District of Delaware in the event any dispute arises out of or related to this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court within the District of Delaware, (d) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or Proceeding in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or such Federal court. Each Party agrees that (i) this Agreement involves at least $100,000.00 and (ii) this Agreement has been entered into by the Parties hereto in express reliance upon 6 Del. C. § 2708. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Any judgment from any such court described above may, however, be enforced by any Party in any other court in any other jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 2(a)(iii).

&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>Construction</u>. There shall be no presumption that any ambiguity in this Agreement should be resolved in favor of one party hereto and against another party hereto. Any controversy concerning the construction of this Agreement shall be decided neutrally without regard to authorship.

&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>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed will be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts will, when executed by the Parties hereto, together constitute but one agreement. Facsimile and electronic signatures (delivered in PDF or other similar format or via DocuSign or other similar application) shall be deemed to be the equivalent of manually signed originals.

&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>Successors and Assigns</u>. The Parties may not assign their respective rights, interests or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. All the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and to their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by the Target Equityholder, other than by will or the laws of descent or distribution.

&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>Severability</u>. All provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. In the event any provision or restriction contained herein is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, in whole or in part, such finding shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. The Parties hereto further agree that any such invalid or unenforceable provision shall be deemed modified so that it shall be enforced to the greatest extent permissible under law, and to the extent that any court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction determines any restriction herein to be unreasonable in any respect, such court or arbitrator may limit this Agreement to render it reasonable in the light of the circumstances in which it was entered into and specifically enforce this Agreement as limited.

&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>Modification</u>. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except in writing signed by the Parties. No term or condition of this Agreement will be deemed to have been waived except in writing by the party charged with waiver. A waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and will not constitute a waiver for the future or act on anything other than that which is specifically waived.

&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>Tolling</u>. In the event of any violation of the provisions of this Agreement by the Target Equityholder, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, the covenants contained in this Agreement will be extended by a period of time equal to the period of such violation, it being the intention of the Parties hereto that the running of the applicable restricted period shall be tolled during any period of such violation.

&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>Notices</u>.

***Execution Version***

**<u>Exhibit D</u>**

**REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT**

**THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT** (this "<u>Agreement</u>"), dated as of [ ], 2026, is made and entered into by and among (i) Ondas Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "<u>Parent</u>"), (ii) each of the Persons listed on <u>Schedule A</u> attached hereto (the "<u>Schedule of Holders</u>") as of the date hereof, and (iii) each of the other Persons set forth from time to time on the Schedule of Holders who, at any time, own Registrable Securities and enter into a joinder to this Agreement agreeing to be bound by the terms hereof (each Person identified in the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii), a "<u>Holder</u>" and, collectively, the "<u>Holders</u>").

**RECITALS**

**WHEREAS**, the Parent has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of [ ], 2026 (the "<u>Merger Agreement</u>"), with Project Cyclone Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, Mistral, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Shoshana Banai (the "Stockholder"); and

**WHEREAS**, in connection with the Merger Agreement, the Parent may issue Common Stock as consideration pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

**NOW**, **THEREFORE**, in consideration of the representations, covenants and agreements contained herein, and certain other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. <u>Resale Shelf Registration Rights</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>Registration Statement Covering Resale of Registrable Securities</u>. In accordance with <u>Section 2</u>, within one (1) Business day of the date of each issuance of Common Stock to the Holders, the Parent shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, with the Commission a prospectus supplement pursuant to Rule 424(b)(7) promulgated under the Securities Act (each, a "<u>Prosupp</u>") to its Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement, providing for the resale from time to time by the Holders of any and all Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect), and each such Prosupp shall further provide that such Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to the Holders, including in customary market and brokerage trades through any national exchange or over the counter market. The Parent shall use its best efforts to maintain the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with the terms hereof and keep the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and shall cause the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be supplemented and amended (including post-effective amendments) to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, to ensure that another Registration Statement is available and effective under the Securities Act at all times until the first date on which there are no longer any Registrable Securities outstanding (the "<u>Effectiveness Period</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;(b) <u>Notification; Replacement Registration Statement on Form S-3; and Distribution of Materials</u>. The Parent shall notify the Holders in writing of the filing of each Prosupp immediately following the filing thereof with the Commission, and the Parent shall notify the Holders in writing immediately following the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement no longer being current or otherwise available to the Holders as provided by <u>Section 1(a)</u>. If the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement becomes unavailable for the use by the Holders because the Parent is no longer eligible to use an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, then the Parent shall promptly (and in any event within five Business Days following the unavailability of such Registration Statement) file with the Commission a replacement Registration Statement on such form as it is then currently able to use (which shall be Form S-3 if the Parent is then able to use such form), and the Parent shall use its best efforts to have such replacement Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission as soon as possible after such filing, which replacement Registration Statement shall provide for the resale from time to time by the Holders of any and all Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect), and the Prospectus contained therein shall further provide that such Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to the Holders, including in customary market and brokerage trades through any national exchange or over the counter market. The Parent shall notify the Holders of the effectiveness of such replacement Registration Statement as soon as practicable, and in any event within one (1) Business Day after the Registration Statement becomes effective, and shall furnish to them, without charge, such number of copies of such Registration Statement (including any amendments, supplements and exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary prospectus and all related amendments and supplements) and any documents incorporated by reference in such Shelf Registration Statement or such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities in the manner described in such Registration Statement. The Parent shall use its best efforts to maintain such replacement Registration Statement in accordance with the terms hereof and keep such Registration Statement continuously effective and shall cause such Registration Statement to be supplemented and amended (including post-effective amendments) to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, to ensure that another Registration Statement is available and effective under the Securities Act at all times during the Effectiveness 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) <u>Amendments and Supplements</u>. Subject to the provisions of <u>Section 1(a)</u> above, the Parent shall promptly prepare and file with the Commission from time to time such amendments and supplements to the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Current Resale Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all the Registrable Securities during the Effectiveness Period. If any Registration Statement filed pursuant to <u>Section 1(b)</u> is filed on Form S-3 and thereafter the Parent becomes ineligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, then the Parent shall promptly notify the Holders of such ineligibility and shall file with the Commission a shelf registration on Form S-1 or other appropriate form as promptly as practicable (but in all events no later than fifteen (15) days thereafter) to replace the shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and use its best efforts to have such replacement Registration Statement declared effective as promptly as practicable and to cause such replacement Registration Statement to remain effective, and shall cause the Registration Statement to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is continuously available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders during the Effectiveness Period; *provided, however*, that at any time the Parent once again becomes eligible to use Form S-3, the Parent shall, as promptly as practicable, cause such replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be amended, or shall file a new replacement Registration Statement, such that the Registration Statement is once again on Form S-3.

&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) Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this <u>Section 1</u>, in the event the Commission informs the Parent that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Parent agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the Holders thereof and shall file amendments to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the applicable Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (a "<u>New Registration Statement</u>"), on Form S-3, or if Form S-3 is not then available to the Parent for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; *provided, however*, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Parent shall advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the "<u>SEC Guidance</u>"), including without limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations and successor guidance. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Parent used diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities in accordance with the preceding sentence), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders, subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders' amount of Registrable Securities must be reduced first based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the event the Parent amends the applicable Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Parent shall file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Parent or to registrants of securities in general, one or more Registration Statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the applicable Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Parent shall not name any Holder as an underwriter (as defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act) in any Registration Statement without such Holder's written consent.

2. <u>Registration Procedures</u>. In connection with the Registration to be effected pursuant to <u>Section 1</u>, the Parent shall expeditiously as reasonably possible:

&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) without derogating from the Parent's obligations contained in <u>Section 1</u>, prepare in accordance with the Securities Act and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and file with the Commission a Registration Statement, and all amendments and supplements thereto and related prospectuses as may be necessary to comply with applicable securities laws, with respect to such Registrable Securities and use best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective immediately upon filing with the Commission, or if not on Form S-3ASR to become effective as promptly as practicable upon filing of a Form S-3 (provided that at least two (2) Business Days before filing a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Parent shall furnish to counsel selected by the Applicable Approving Party draft copies of all such documents proposed to be filed);

&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) Immediately notify each Holder of Registrable Securities of (A) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (B) the receipt by the Parent or its counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, and (C) the effectiveness of each Registration Statement filed hereunder;

&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) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement, the prospectus and each Prosupp with respect to the Registrable Securities used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective during the Effectiveness Period and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Holders as set forth in such registration statement;

&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) furnish to each Holder such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus), each Prosupp, each Free-Writing Prospectus and such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such 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;(e) during any period in which a prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, promptly and timely file all documents required to be filed with the Commission, including pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

&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 connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, (1) each such Holder shall furnish to the Parent in writing such information as the Parent reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus and, (2) to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Parent, its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives and each Person who controls the Parent (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information expressly furnished in writing by such Holder to the Parent for use in a Registration Statement; provided that the foregoing obligation to indemnify shall be individual to such Holder, and not joint and several among the Holders, and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement and provided further that the parties agree that such written information furnished by such Holder is expressly agreed to be limited to information provided in written by the Holders and included in the "Selling Stockholder" section of any Prosupp.

&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) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person's right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent such failure has materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (as well as one local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. In such instance, the conflicted indemnified parties shall have a right to retain one separate counsel, chosen by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the registration, at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party, in the defense of such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

&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) Each party hereto agrees that, if for any reason the indemnification provisions contemplated by <u>Sections 5(a)</u> or <u>5(b)</u> are unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this <u>Section 5(d)</u> were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the holders or any underwriters or all of them were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this <u>Section 5(d)</u>. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or, except as provided in <u>Section 5(c)</u>, defending any such action or claim. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The sellers' obligations in this <u>Section 5(d)</u> to contribute shall be several in proportion to the amount of securities registered by them and not joint and shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received by such seller from the sale of Registrable Securities effected pursuant to such registration.

&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) The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities and the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

6. <u>Other Agreements; Certain Limitations on Registration Rights</u>. The Parent shall file all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder and shall take such further action as the Holders may reasonably request, all to the extent required to enable such Persons to sell securities pursuant to (a) Rule 144 or (b) a Registration Statement. Upon request, the Parent shall promptly deliver to the Holders a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. The Parent shall at all times use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the securities registered or to be registered pursuant hereto to be listed, or continue to be listed, on one or more of the Nasdaq Stock Market, the New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE American (each a "Trading Market").

Compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived, or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified, with the written consent of the Parent and the Holders of at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities at the time of such waiver, amendment or modification; *provided, however*, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in its capacity as a holder of Registrable Securities, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity) shall require the consent of the Holder so affected. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this <u>Section 8(e)</u> shall be binding upon each Holder and the Parent. No course of dealing between any Holder or the Parent and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Parent in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Parent. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.

&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>Adjustment for Stock Splits, etc</u>. Wherever in this Agreement there is a reference to a specific number of shares, then upon the occurrence of any subdivision, combination or stock dividend of such shares, the specific number of shares so referenced in this Agreement shall automatically be proportionally adjusted to reflect the effect on the outstanding shares of such class or series of stock by such subdivision, combination or stock dividend.

&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>Successors and Assigns; No Third-Party Beneficiaries</u>. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Parent hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Parent in whole or in part. A Holder may assign or delegate such Holder's rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to (a) a Permitted Transferee of such Holder or (b) any Person with the prior written consent of the Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or benefits on any persons that are not parties hereto, other than as expressly set forth in <u>Section 5</u>. Any transfer or assignment made other than as provided in this <u>Section 8(f)</u> shall be null and void.

&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) All covenants and agreements in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto whether so expressed or not.

&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>Severability</u>. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or law, or public policy, all other terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

&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>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties. Any such counterpart delivered by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail or by electronic signature delivered by electronic transmission (any such delivery, "Electronic Delivery") shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No party hereto shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a counterpart or signature, or the fact that any counterpart or signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery, as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

&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>Descriptive Headings; Interpretation</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;(j) <u>Governing Law; Jurisdiction</u>. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdictions other than those of the State of Delaware. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court within the District of Delaware in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court within the District of Delaware, (d) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or such Federal court. Each party agrees that (i) this Agreement involves at least $100,000.00 and (ii) this Agreement has been entered into by the parties in express reliance upon 6 Del. C. § 2708. Each party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Any judgment from any such court described above may, however, be enforced by any party in any other court in any other jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <u>Notices</u>. All notices, demands or other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given (and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) by delivery in person, by telecopy or email or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to each Holder at the address indicated on the Schedule of Holders attached hereto and to the Parent at the address indicated below (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this <u>Section 8(l)</u>):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Establishment of Escrow Account</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Form of Escrow Property</u>. The Escrow Funds shall initially consist of the Escrow Amount.

Such market and limit orders shall be executed without additional fees owed to Agent. Any cash proceeds resulting from such liquidation shall be deposited into the Escrow Account, along with any cash dividends distributed with respect to the shares of Depositor Common Stock in the Escrow Account, and shall thereafter be held (i) in substitution for the liquidated Depositor Common Stock or, (ii) in the case of cash dividends, in addition to the shares of Depositor Common Stock in the Escrow Account.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Treatment of Substituted Cash</u>. Any cash held in the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 3(d) shall be deemed "Escrow Funds" for all purposes of this Agreement and shall be subject to the same terms, conditions, restrictions, and disbursement provisions applicable to the Depositor Common Stock originally deposited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Voting Rights</u>. To the extent permitted by law, in the event any matter is submitted to Depositor's stockholders in which such stockholders are required or permitted to vote, the Agent shall vote (or cause to be voted) the shares of Depositor Common Stock in the Escrow Account at such time as directed in writing by Recipient. Depositor shall cause Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (the "<u>Transfer Agent</u>") to send all proxy materials to the Agent with respect to any matter submitted on which Depositor's stockholders are required or permitted to vote. The Agent shall deliver any proxy materials relating to the shares of Depositor Common Stock in the Escrow Account to Recipient upon receipt of such proxy materials from the Transfer Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Disbursements of Escrow Funds</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Agent shall disburse the Escrow Funds as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within twenty-four (24) hours, following receipt of (i) a valid Joint Written Direction substantially in the form of <u>Attachment 1</u> hereto or (ii) a Final Order received by Agent as set forth in <u>Section 15</u>. Such Joint Written Direction shall contain complete delivery instructions. Agent shall have no obligation to disburse the Escrow Funds based on unilateral instructions from either Depositor or Recipient. In no event shall Recipient or Depositor be entitled to receive any portion of the Escrow Funds except to the extent expressly authorized by a Joint Written Direction or Final Order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Prior to any disbursement of any portion of the Escrow Funds, Agent must receive reasonable identifying information regarding the recipient thereof so that Agent may comply with its regulatory obligations and reasonable business practices, including without limitation a completed United States Internal Revenue Service ("<u>IRS</u>") Form W-9 or Form W-8, as applicable. All disbursements of Escrow Funds shall be subject to the fees and claims of Agent and the Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 11 and Section 12.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Depositor and Recipient may each deliver written notice to Agent in accordance with Section 15 changing their respective Escrow Funds delivery instructions, which notice shall be effective only upon receipt by Agent and after Agent has had a reasonable time to act upon such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Suspension of Performance; Disbursement into Court</u>. If, at any time, (a) a dispute exists with respect to any obligation of Agent hereunder, (b) Agent is unable to determine, to Agent's sole satisfaction, Agent's proper actions with respect to its obligations hereunder, or (c) the Representatives have not, within 10 days of receipt of a notice of resignation, appointed a successor Agent to act hereunder, then Agent may, in its sole discretion, take either or both of the following actions:

&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) suspend the performance of any of its obligations (including without limitation any disbursement obligations) under this Agreement until such dispute or uncertainty shall be resolved to the sole satisfaction of Agent or until a successor Agent shall have been appointed.

&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) petition (by means of an interpleader action or any other appropriate method) any court of competent jurisdiction, in any venue convenient to Agent, for instructions with respect to such dispute or uncertainty and, to the extent required or permitted by law, pay into such court, for holding and disposition in accordance with the instructions of such court, all Escrow Funds, after deduction and payment to Agent of all fees and expenses (including court costs and attorneys' fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be incurred by Agent in connection with the performance of its duties and the exercise of its rights hereunder.

Agent shall have no liability to Depositor or Recipient for suspension of performance or disbursement into court, specifically including any liability or claimed liability that may arise due to any delay in any other action required or requested of Agent. Any such suspension or interpleader shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement, and neither Depositor nor Recipient shall have any liability for any delay resulting therefrom.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. [reserved]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. [reserved]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. [reserved]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Resignation or Removal of Agent</u>. Agent may resign and be discharged from the performance of its duties hereunder at any time by giving thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Depositor and Recipient specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect and, after the date of such resignation notice, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Agent's sole obligation will be to hold the Escrow Funds pending appointment of a successor Agent. Similarly, Agent may be removed at any time by Depositor and Recipient giving at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Agent specifying the date when such removal shall take effect. If Depositor and Recipient fail to jointly appoint a successor Agent prior to the effective date of such resignation or removal, Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor agent; provided that any successor Agent must be reasonably acceptable to Depositor and all costs and expenses related to such petition shall be paid jointly and severally by Depositor and Recipient. The retiring Agent shall transmit all records pertaining to the Escrow Account and shall pay all Escrow Funds to the successor Agent, after making copies of such records as the retiring Agent deems advisable and after deduction and payment to the retiring Agent of all fees and expenses (including court costs and attorneys' fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be incurred by the retiring Agent in connection with the performance of its duties and the exercise of its rights hereunder. After any retiring Agent's resignation or removal, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Duties and Liability of Agent</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein and no duties shall be implied. Depositor shall be entitled to rely conclusively on Agent's compliance with this Section, and no action taken by Agent in accordance herewith shall give rise to any claim by Recipient against Depositor. Agent has no fiduciary or discretionary duties of any kind. Agent's permissive rights shall not be construed as duties. Agent shall have no liability under and no duty to inquire as to the provisions of any document other than this Agreement, including without limitation any other agreement between any of the parties hereto or any other persons even though reference thereto may be made herein and whether or not a copy of such document has been provided to Agent. Agent's sole responsibility shall be for the safekeeping of the Escrow Funds in accordance with Agent's customary practices and disbursement thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to make any calculations under this Agreement, or to determine when any calculation required under the provisions of this Agreement should be made, how it should be made or what it should be, or to confirm or verify any such calculation. Agent shall not be charged with knowledge or notice of any fact or circumstance not specifically set forth herein. This Agreement shall terminate upon the distribution of all the Escrow Funds pursuant to any applicable provision of this Agreement, and Agent shall thereafter have no further obligation or liability whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or the Escrow Funds. For the avoidance of doubt, Depositor hereby waives any claim against Recipient, and Recipient hereby waives any claim against Depositor, arising solely out of any action taken or omitted by Agent in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines, which determination is not subject to appeal, that Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its material breach of this Agreement was the sole cause of any loss to Depositor or Recipient. Agent may retain and act hereunder through agents and shall not be responsible for or have any liability with respect to the acts of any such agent retained by Agent in good faith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Agent shall not be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war or terror, epidemics, governmental regulations, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, attacks or intrusions, power failures, earthquakes or any other circumstance beyond its control. Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal action relating to the Escrow Funds, this Agreement or the Underlying Agreement or to appear in, prosecute or defend any such legal action or to take any other action that in Agent's sole judgment may expose it to potential expense or liability. Depositor and Recipient are aware that under applicable state law, property which is presumed abandoned may under certain circumstances escheat to the applicable state. Agent shall have no liability to Depositor or Recipient, their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns, or any other party, should any of the Escrow Funds escheat by operation of law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Agent may consult, at Depositor's and Recipient's cost, legal counsel selected by it in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the provisions hereof or of any other agreement or of its duties hereunder, or relating to any dispute involving this Agreement, and shall incur no liability and shall be fully indemnified from any liability whatsoever in acting in accordance with the advice of such counsel. Depositor and Recipient agree to perform or procure the performance of all further acts and things, and execute and deliver such further documents, as may be required by law or as Agent may reasonably request relating to its duties hereunder. When any action is provided for herein to be done on or by a specified date that falls on a day other than a Business Day, such action may be performed on the next ensuing Business Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If any portion of the Escrow Funds is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon, or otherwise subject to any writ, order, decree or process of any court, or in case disbursement of the Escrow Funds is stayed or enjoined by any court order, Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to respond as it deems appropriate or to comply with all writs, orders, decrees or process so entered or issued, including but not limited to those which it is advised by legal counsel of its own choosing is binding upon it, whether with or without jurisdiction; and if Agent relies upon or complies with any such writ, order, decree or process, it shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or entity by reason of such compliance even if such order is reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of Agent may buy, sell and deal in any of the securities of any other party hereto and contract and lend money to any other party hereto and otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude Agent from acting in any other capacity for any other party hereto or for any other person or entity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) In the event instructions, including Escrow Funds transfer instructions, address change or change in contact information are given to Agent (other than in writing at the time of execution of this Agreement), whether in writing, by facsimile or otherwise, Agent is authorized but shall not be required to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any person designated by the instructing party on Schedule B hereto, and Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be a person so designated. The persons and telephone numbers for call-backs may be changed only in writing actually received and acknowledged by Agent and shall be effective only after Agent has a reasonable opportunity to act on such changes. If Agent is unable to contact any of the designated representatives identified in Schedule B, Agent is hereby authorized but shall be under no duty to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any one or more of Depositor's or Recipient's executive officers ("<u>Executive Officers</u>"), as the case may be, which shall include the titles of Chief Executive Officer, President and Vice President, as Agent may select. Such Executive Officer shall deliver to Agent a fully executed incumbency certificate, and Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such officer. Depositor and Recipient agree that Agent may at its option record any telephone calls made pursuant to this Section. Agent in any transfer of Escrow Funds may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by Depositor or Recipient to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary's bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank, even when its use may result in a person other than the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of Escrow Funds to a bank other than the beneficiary's bank or an intermediary bank so designated. Depositor and Recipient acknowledge that these optional security procedures are commercially reasonable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Indemnification of Agent</u>. Depositor and Recipient, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent and each director, officer, employee and affiliate of Agent (each, an "<u>Indemnified Party</u>") upon demand against any and all claims (whether asserted by Depositor, Recipient or any other person or entity and whether or not valid), actions, proceedings, losses, damages, liabilities, penalties, costs and expenses of any kind or nature (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses) (collectively, "<u>Losses</u>") arising from this Agreement or Agent's actions hereunder, except to the extent such Losses are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, which determination is not subject to appeal, to have been directly caused solely by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party in connection with Agent's material breach of this Agreement. Depositor and Recipient further agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify each Indemnified Party for all costs, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by such Indemnified Party relating to the enforcement of Depositor's and Recipient's obligations hereunder. Each Indemnified Party shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to select and employ separate counsel with respect to any action or claim brought or asserted against it, and the reasonable fees of such counsel shall be paid upon demand by Depositor and Recipient jointly and severally. The obligations of Depositor and Recipient under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of Agent. Recipient's indemnification obligations under this Section are independent of and in addition to its obligations under the Underlying Agreement and shall not be limited by any release of Escrow Funds from the Escrow Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Agent shall satisfy any such indemnification claim solely from the Escrow Account, (b) Recipient's aggregate liability under this Section, solely to the extent arising from the Escrow Funds or Agent's administration thereof and not from the Underlying Agreement, shall not exceed the Escrow Amount, and (c) Recipient shall have no further liability under this Section beyond the amount of the Escrow Funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Compensation of Agent</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Fees and Expenses</u>. Depositor and Recipient agree, jointly and severally, to compensate Agent upon demand for its services hereunder in accordance with Schedule A attached hereto. Depositor shall be solely responsible for payment of Agent's fees; provided, however, that Depositor shall be entitled to recover such amounts from Recipient to the extent required under the Underlying Agreement. The obligations of Depositor and Recipient under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Representations and Warranties</u>. Depositor and Recipient each respectively make the following representations and warranties to Agent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) it has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder; and this Agreement has been duly approved by all necessary action and constitutes its valid and binding agreement enforceable in accordance with its terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) each of the applicable persons designated on Schedule B attached hereto has been duly appointed to act as its authorized representative hereunder and individually has full power and authority on its behalf to execute and deliver any instruction or direction, to amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement and to take any and all other actions as its authorized representative under this Agreement and no change in designation of such authorized representatives shall be effective until written notice of such change is delivered to each other party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 15 and Agent has had reasonable time to act upon it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Agent does not and will not violate any applicable law or regulation and no printed or other material in any language, including any prospectus, notice, report, and promotional material that mentions "U.S. Bank" or any of its affiliates by name or the rights, powers, or duties of Agent under this Agreement shall be issued by any other parties hereto, or on such party's behalf, without the prior written consent of Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) it will not claim any immunity from jurisdiction of any court, suit or legal process, whether from service of notice, injunction, attachment, execution or enforcement of any judgment or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) there is no security interest in the cash fund or any part thereof; no financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code is on file in any jurisdiction claiming a security interest in or describing (whether specifically or generally) the Escrow Funds or any part thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Identifying Information</u>. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. For a non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, Agent requires documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity. Agent may require financial statements, licenses or identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation. Depositor and Recipient agree to provide all information requested by Agent relating to any legislation or regulation to which Agent is subject, in a timely manner. Agent's appointment and acceptance of its duties under this Agreement is contingent upon verification of all regulatory requirements applicable to Depositor, Recipient and any of their permitted assigns, including successful completion of a final background check. These conditions include, without limitation, requirements under the USA PATRIOT Act, the USA FREEDOM Act, the Bank Secrecy Act, and the U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control. If these conditions are not met, Agent may at its option promptly terminate this Agreement in whole or in part or refuse any otherwise permitted assignment by Depositor or Recipient, without any liability or incurring any additional costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. <u>Notices</u>. All notices, approvals, consents, requests and other communications hereunder required to be sent in writing, in English and may only be delivered (a) by personal delivery, or (b) by national overnight courier service, or (c) by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or (d) by email.

or to such other address as each party may designate for itself by like notice and unless otherwise provided herein shall be deemed to have been given on the date received. Agent shall not have any duty to confirm that the person sending any notice, instruction or other communication (a "Notice") by electronic transmission (including by e-mail, facsimile transmission, web portal or other electronic methods) is, in fact, a person authorized to do so. Electronic signatures believed by Agent to comply with the ESIGN Act of 2000 or other applicable law (including electronic images of handwritten signatures and digital signatures provided by DocuSign, Orbit, Adobe Sign or any other digital signature provider acceptable to Agent) shall be deemed original signatures for all purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent may in any instance and in its sole discretion require that an original document bearing a manual signature be delivered to Agent in lieu of, or in addition to, any such electronic Notice. Depositor and Recipient agree to assume all risks arising out of the use of digital signatures and electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to Agent, including without limitation the risk of Agent acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. <u>Tax Matters</u>. Depositor and Recipient agree that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement, the owner of the Escrow Funds is Recipient for all tax purposes and the Escrow Agent shall report to the Internal Revenue Service ("<u>IRS</u>"), as of each calendar year-end, all income earned from the investment of any sum held in the Escrow Account as the income of Recipient for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and applicable state and local income tax law. The Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to report all interest and other income earned on the Escrow Funds in accordance with the IRS Form W-9 or W-8 provided to the Escrow Agent by Recipient. Recipient shall report all interest or other income, if any, that is earned on the Escrow Funds as income of Recipient in the taxable year or years in which such income is properly includable in Recipient's gross income and shall pay any and all taxes attributable thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17. <u>Amendment and Assignment</u>. None of the terms or conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified, discharged, terminated or varied in any manner whatsoever unless in writing duly signed by each party to this Agreement. No course of conduct shall constitute a waiver of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, unless such waiver is specified in writing, and then only to the extent so specified. No party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the written consent of the other parties, provided that if Agent consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business (including the account contemplated by this Agreement) to another entity, the successor or transferee entity without any further act shall be the successor Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18. <u>Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Venue</u>. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof that would require the application of any other laws. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably (a) consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware in connection with any matter arising out of this Agreement, (b) waives any objection to such jurisdiction or venue (c) agrees not to commence any legal proceedings related hereto except in such courts, (d) consents to and agrees to accept service of process to vest personal jurisdiction over it in any such courts made as set forth in Section 15 and (e) waives any right to trial by jury in any action in connection with this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. <u>No Waiver by Silence</u>. No failure or delay by Depositor in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20. <u>Entire Agreement, No Third-Party Beneficiaries</u>. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the signatory parties hereto relating to the holding and disbursement of the Escrow Funds and sets forth in their entirety the obligations and duties of Agent with respect to the Escrow Funds. This Agreement and any Joint Written Direction may be executed in two or more counterparts, which when so executed shall constitute one and the same agreement or direction. To the extent any provision of this Agreement is 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 provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. The section headings appearing in this instrument have been inserted for convenience only and shall be given no substantive meaning or significance whatsoever in construing the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any person other than the signatory parties hereto and the Indemnified Parties any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, upon final satisfaction of the obligations secured by the Escrow Funds and the distribution of all Escrow Funds in accordance with this Agreement, this Agreement shall automatically terminate, except for provisions which by their express terms survive termination.

**IN WITNESS WHEREOF**, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first above written.

**Ondas Reaches Merger Agreement with U.S. Defense Prime Contractor Mistral Inc., Expanding Direct <br> Prime Participation Across U.S. Department of Defense Programs**

 

*Merger facilitates Ondas' presence within the U.S. Department of Defense, various federal agencies, and U.S. State and Local Law Enforcement through Mistral's decades of experience as a prime contractor and trusted supplier to the U.S. Government* 

 

*Mistral serves as Prime Contractor on over a billion dollars of IDIQ and various US DOD contracts for various weapon systems, UAS, and drones; Mistral is also a leading provider for the U.S. State and Local governments and the HLS market for public protection systems* 

 

*Mistral accelerates Ondas' U.S. Defense expansion strategy by adding Prime Contract access, U.S.-Based manufacturing infrastructure, and established Federal and State contracting capabilities*

**WEST PALM BEACH, FL / March 9, 2026 /** Ondas Inc. (Nasdaq: ONDS) ("Ondas" or the "Company"), a leading provider of autonomous aerial and ground robot intelligence through its Ondas Autonomous Systems (OAS) business unit and private wireless solutions through Ondas Networks, today announced it has entered into a merger agreement with Mistral Inc., a U.S.-based defense prime contractor with decades of experience supporting U.S. military, federal, and public safety programs. Under the agreement, Mistral will merge with a subsidiary of Ondas, while maintaining its current contract administration responsibilities. The transaction provides Ondas with direct prime contractor access to U.S. Army and Special Operations contract vehicles while adding U.S.-based manufacturing, integration, and federal contracting infrastructure.

![](ea028051501_ex99-1img1.jpg)

Mistral has spent decades supporting U.S. defense, federal, and public safety programs, building a strong reputation for introducing new technologies into operational environments and successfully executing large government contracts.

"Mistral brings decades of trusted performance supporting U.S. defense and public safety customers, along with a highly experienced team that has repeatedly demonstrated its ability to introduce advanced technologies into operational programs," said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. "The company has a strong track record capturing and executing large government programs and integrating mission-critical systems for the U.S. military and federal agencies. By combining Mistral's proven prime contractor capabilities and program expertise with Ondas' expanding portfolio of autonomous air and ground platforms, we believe we are well positioned to deliver integrated mission solutions directly to U.S. defense customers while expanding our manufacturing and program execution capabilities in the United States."

"Joining Ondas represents an exciting new chapter for Mistral," said Eyal Banai CEO of Mistral Inc. "Our team has spent decades supporting critical defense and public safety programs, and the addition of Ondas unique autonomous systems solutions allows us to expand those capabilities while continuing to deliver the reliability and execution our customers expect. With the additional scale, technology portfolio, and global reach of Ondas, we are even better positioned to support our domestic defense customers, industrial base, and industry partners as mission requirements continue to evolve."

Mistral, headquartered in Bethesda, MD, operates U.S.-based manufacturing, assembly, integration, and quality assurance infrastructure supporting rapid program execution and compliance with U.S. defense sourcing requirements. As a prime contractor on U.S. Army and USSOCOM uncrewed and autonomous platforms procurement vehicles, the company supports rapid capability fielding and mission equipment integration for operational units. Mistral's experience includes unmanned systems procurement, advanced mission equipment integration, defense electronics, survivability and mobility enhancements, and lifecycle sustainment services.

The merger aligns with Ondas' strategy to expand its U.S. defense footprint and transition from standalone system deployments to structured participation in multi-year contract vehicles. Mistral's contracting infrastructure and integration capabilities will support the deployment of Ondas' expanding portfolio of autonomous aerial and ground systems—including counter-drone, robotic, and ISR platforms—into U.S. military, homeland security, and public safety programs and help transition Ondas from standalone system deployments to participation in multi-year DoD contract vehicles and program-of-record opportunities.

Together with Mistral capabilities, we believe Ondas is well positioned to deliver fully integrated autonomous air and ground solutions aligned with Department of Defense modernization priorities, homeland security requirements, and state-level public safety missions. The acquisition represents an important step in Ondas' strategy to expand its role within U.S. defense procurement by combining advanced autonomous platforms with U.S.-based prime contractor infrastructure capable of competing for and executing multi-year government programs.

For additional information regarding the terms of the merger agreement, please see the Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission later today. Ondas will provide outlook information regarding Mistral on its earnings conference call scheduled for Wednesday, March 25, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time.
