RIGHTS AGREEMENT

 

This Rights Agreement
(this “Agreement”), dated as of April 13, 2020, is made between American Finance Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation
(the “Company”), and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., a federally chartered trust company (the “Rights
Agent”).

 

The Board of Directors
of the Company has (a) adopted resolutions classifying and designating 120,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share,
of the Company as shares of “Series B Preferred Stock,” (b) authorized and declared a dividend of one preferred share
purchase right (a “Right”) for and on each share of Class A Common Stock (as defined below) of the Company outstanding
on the Close of Business (as defined below) on April 23, 2020 (the “Record Date”) and (c) authorized the issuance
of one Right (subject to adjustment) with respect to (A) each additional share of Class A Common Stock issued by the Company between
the Record Date and the earliest of (i) the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, (ii) the Close of Business on the Redemption
Date or (iii) the Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date (as all are defined below), and (B) additional shares of Class
A Common Stock that shall become outstanding after the Distribution Date as provided in Section 22 of this Agreement, each Right
initially representing the right to purchase one one-thousandth (subject to adjustment) of a Preferred Share (as defined below),
subject to adjustment, upon the terms and subject to the conditions below.

 

Accordingly, in consideration
of the premises and the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties agree as follows:

 

		1.	Definitions.  For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings indicated:

 

1.1             
“Acquiring Person” means any Person (other than an Exempt Person or a Passive Investor) who or which,
together with all Affiliates and Associates of the Person, is or becomes the Beneficial Owner of 4.9% or more of the shares of
Class A Common Stock then outstanding, but shall not include (i) the Company, (ii) any Subsidiary of the Company, (iii) any employee
benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or the Company’s advisor, American Finance Advisor, LLC (the
 “Advisor”), (iv) any entity or trustee holding (or acting in a fiduciary capacity in respect of) shares of Class
A Common Stock for or pursuant to the terms of any employee benefit plan or for the purpose of funding any plan or funding other
employee benefits for employees of the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or the Advisor, (v) any Person who has been permitted
by the Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, to Beneficially Own 4.9% or more of the shares of Class A Common Stock then
outstanding by means of a written waiver or agreement, provided, that (x) the Person does not Beneficially Own shares of
Class A Common Stock above the permitted percentage and complies in all material respects with the terms and the conditions of
the waiver or agreement, and (y) the waiver or agreement remains in full force and effect, and (vi) any Person who or which, upon
the execution of this Agreement, is a Beneficial Owner of 4.9% or more of the shares of Class A Common Stock then outstanding,
other than a Person who or which is not an Affiliate or Associate of the Beneficial Owner upon the execution of this Agreement
and who or which subsequently becomes an Affiliate or Associate of the Beneficial Owner without the prior written approval of the
Board of Directors (a “Grandfathered Stockholder”); provided, however, that if a Grandfathered
Stockholder becomes, after execution of this Agreement, the Beneficial Owner of any additional shares of Class A Common Stock (in
the case of any Person in clause (v), any additional shares of Class A Common Stock above the percentage permitted by the Board
of Directors, or a committee thereof) (other than shares of Class A Common Stock acquired solely as a result of corporate action
of the Company not caused, directly or indirectly, by the Person) at any time such that the Grandfathered Stockholder is or thereby
becomes the Beneficial Owner of 4.9% or more of the shares of Class A Common Stock then outstanding (or any other percentage as
would otherwise result in the Person becoming an Acquiring Person), then the Grandfathered Stockholder shall be deemed an Acquiring
Person; provided, further, that upon the first decrease of a Grandfathered Stockholder’s Beneficial Ownership below
4.9%, the Grandfathered Stockholder shall no longer be considered a Grandfathered Stockholder and this clause (vi) shall have no
further force or effect with respect to the Grandfathered Stockholder; and provided, further, that for the purposes
of calculating an Acquiring Person’s Beneficial Ownership percentage, shares of Class A Common Stock that the Acquiring Person,
its Affiliate(s) or Associate(s) acquire(s) or attempt(s) to acquire in violation of Section 5.7 of the Charter, even if transferred
to a trust, shall be included in the numerator for purposes of the calculation and deemed as Beneficially Owned by the Acquiring
Person or its Affiliate(s) or Associate(s).

 

    	 	1	 

     

    

 

Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Person shall become an Acquiring Person as the result of the Company acquiring shares of Class A Common Stock by
repurchase, tender or otherwise which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the proportionate number of shares
of Class A Common Stock Beneficially Owned by the Person to 4.9% or more of the then outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock
(or any other percentage as would otherwise result in the Person becoming an Acquiring Person); provided, however,
that if a Person would, but for the provisions of this paragraph, become an Acquiring Person by reason of an acquisition of shares
of Class A Common Stock by the Company and shall, after the share acquisition by the Company, become the Beneficial Owner of any
additional shares of Class A Common Stock at any time such that the Person is or thereby becomes the Beneficial Owner of 4.9% or
more of the shares of Class A Common Stock then outstanding (or any other percentage as would otherwise result in the Person becoming
an Acquiring Person) (other than shares of Class A Common Stock acquired solely as a result of corporate action of the Company
not caused, directly or indirectly, by the Person), then the Person shall be deemed to be an Acquiring Person.

 

Notwithstanding the
foregoing paragraphs of this Section 1.1, if the Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, determines that a Person who would
otherwise be an Acquiring Person, has become an Acquiring Person inadvertently (including, without limitation, because (A) the
Person establishes that it was unaware that it Beneficially Owned that number of shares of Class A Common Stock that would otherwise
cause the Person to be an “Acquiring Person” or (B) the Person establishes that it was aware of the extent of
its Beneficial Ownership of shares of Class A Common Stock but had no actual knowledge of the consequences of its Beneficial Ownership
under this Agreement) and without any intention of obtaining, changing or influencing control of the Company, and the Person divests
as promptly as practicable, as determined by the Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, a sufficient number of shares of Class
A Common Stock so that the Person would no longer be an Acquiring Person, then the Person shall not be deemed to have become an
Acquiring Person for any purpose of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a bona fide swaps or derivatives dealer who
would otherwise be an “Acquiring Person” has become an Acquiring Person as a result of its actions in the ordinary
course of its business that the Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, determines, in its sole discretion, were taken without
the intent or effect of evading or assisting any other Person to evade the purposes and intent of this Agreement, or otherwise
seeking to control or influence the management or policies of the Company, then, and unless and until the Board of Directors shall
otherwise determine, the Person shall not be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person” for any purpose of this Agreement.

1.2             
A Person shall be deemed to be “Acting in Concert” with another Person if the Person acts (whether or
not pursuant to an express agreement, arrangement or understanding) in concert or in parallel with another Person, or towards a
common goal with another Person, relating to (i) acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of voting securities of the Company or
(ii) changing or influencing the control of the Company or in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having that
purpose or effect, where (x) each Person knows of the other Person’s conduct or intent and (y) at least one additional factor
supports a determination by the Board of Directors that the Persons intended to act in concert or in parallel, including, without
limitation, exchanging information, attending meetings, conducting discussions, or making or soliciting invitations to act in concert
or in parallel. A Person who is Acting in Concert with another Person shall also be deemed to be Acting in Concert with any third
Person who is also Acting in Concert with the other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall be deemed to be Acting
in Concert with another Person solely as a result of (i) making or receiving a solicitation of, or granting or receiving, revocable
proxies or consents given in response to a public proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section
14(a) of the Exchange Act by means of a proxy or solicitation statement filed on Schedule 14A, or (ii) soliciting or being solicited
for, or tendering or receiving tenders of securities in a public tender or exchange offer made pursuant to, and in accordance with,
Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act by means of a tender offer statement filed on Schedule TO.

or is, directly or indirectly, the beneficial owner of 4.9% or more of any class of equity securities, (ii) any trust or other
estate in which the Person has a substantial beneficial interest or as to which the Person serves as trustee or in a similar fiduciary
capacity, and (iii) any relative or spouse of the Person, or any relative of the spouse, who has the same home as the Person or

between underwriters and selling group members with respect to a bona fide public offering of securities), written or otherwise,
or upon the exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, rights (other than the Rights), warrants or options, or otherwise;
provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, (w) securities

promulgated under the Exchange Act by or on behalf of the Person or any of the Person’s Affiliates or Associates until the

with, the applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act and (B) is not also then reportable on Schedule 13D

the notional or other number of shares of Class A Common Stock specified in the documents evidencing the Derivative Interest as
being subject to be acquired upon the exercise or settlement of the Derivative Interest or as the basis upon which the value or
settlement amount of the Derivative Interest is to be calculated in whole or in part or, if the number of shares of Class A Common
Stock is not specified in the applicable documents, or as determined by the Board of Directors; provided, that a Unitholder
shall not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, securities which may be issued to the Unitholder upon redemption
of the Unitholder’s Partnership Units pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Operating Partnership Agreement, unless
the Unitholder actually receives the securities in exchange therefor;

		3.	Issue of Right Certificates.

 

3.1             
Until the earlier of (i) the Close of Business on the tenth (10th) Business Day after the Stock Acquisition Date
or, in the event the Board of Directors determines on or before the tenth (10th) Business Day to effect an exchange
in accordance with Section 24 and determines in accordance with Section 24.6 that a later date not more than twenty (20) days after

(10th) Business Day (or a later date as may be determined by action of the Board of Directors prior to any Person becoming
an Acquiring Person) after the date of the commencement (determined in accordance with Rule 14d-2(a) under the Exchange Act) by
any Person (other than the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, an Exempt Person, any employee benefit plan of the Company,
any Subsidiary of the Company or of the Advisor, or any entity or trustee holding (or acting in a fiduciary capacity in respect
of) shares of Class A Common Stock for or pursuant to the terms of any such benefit plan or for the purpose of funding any such
plan or funding other employee benefits for employees of the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or the Advisor) of, or of the
first public announcement of the intention of any Person (other than any of the Persons referred to in the preceding parenthetical)
to commence, a tender or exchange offer (which intention to commence remains in effect for five (5) Business Days after announcement),
the consummation of which would result in any Person becoming an Acquiring Person (including any date which is after the date of
this Agreement and prior to the issuance of the Rights; the earliest date being herein referred to as the “Distribution
Date,” provided, however, that the Distribution Date shall in no event be prior to the Record Date), (x)
the Rights will be represented (subject to the provisions of Section 3.2) by the certificates for shares of Class A Common Stock
(or by Book Entry shares of Class A Common Stock) registered in the names of the holders thereof (which certificates shall also
be deemed to be Right Certificates) and not by separate Right Certificates, and (y) the Rights Certificates and the right to receive
Right Certificates will be transferable only in connection with the transfer of shares of Class A Common Stock. As soon as practicable
after the Distribution Date, the Company will prepare and execute, and, at the request of the Company, the Rights Agent will countersign,
and the Company will send or cause to be sent (and the Rights Agent will, if so requested and provided with all necessary information
and documents, will, at the expense of the Company, send) by first-class, insured, postage-prepaid mail, to each record holder
of Class A Common Stock as of the Close of Business on the Distribution Date (other than any Acquiring Person or any Associate
or Affiliate of an Acquiring Person), at the address of each record holder shown on the records of the Company, a Right Certificate,
in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, representing one Right for each share of Class A Common Stock so held, subject
to adjustment as provided herein; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company may choose
to use book entry in lieu of physical certificates, in which case “Rights Certificates” shall be deemed to mean the
uncertificated book entry representing the related Rights. In the event that an adjustment in the number of Rights per share of
Class A Common Stock has been made pursuant to Section 11.9 hereof, at the time of distribution of the Rights Certificates, the
Company shall make the necessary and appropriate rounding adjustments (in accordance with Section 14.1 hereof) so that Rights Certificates
representing only whole numbers of Rights are distributed and cash is paid in lieu of any fractional Rights. As of and after the
Distribution Date, the Rights will be represented solely by the Right Certificates. The Company shall promptly notify the Rights
Agent in writing upon the occurrence of the Distribution Date. Until the written notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights
Agent may presume conclusively for all purposes that the Distribution Date has not occurred.

 

    	 	10	 

     

    

 

3.2             
After the Record Date, or as soon as practicable thereafter, and before the Expiration Date, the Company will (directly
or, at the expense of the Company, through the Rights Agent or its transfer agent if the Rights Agent or transfer agent is so directed
by the Company and provided with all necessary information and documents) make available a copy of the Summary of Rights to any
Rights holder who so requests. With respect to certificates representing shares of Class A Common Stock (or Book Entry shares of
Class A Common Stock) outstanding as of the Record Date, until the Distribution Date, the Rights will be represented by these certificates
(or such Book Entry shares of Class A Common Stock) registered in the names of the holders thereof together with the Summary of
Rights. Until the Distribution Date (or if earlier, the Expiration Date), the surrender for transfer of any certificate representing
shares of Class A Common Stock (or the transfer of any Book Entry Class A Common Stock) outstanding on the Record Date, with or
without a copy of the Summary of Rights, shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the shares of Class A
Common Stock represented thereby. With respect to Book Entry shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date,
until the Distribution Date, the Rights shall be represented by the balances indicated in the Book Entry account system of the
transfer agent for Class A Common Stock. Until the earlier of the Distribution Date and the Expiration Date, the transfer of any
shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date (whether represented by certificates or the balances indicated in
the Book Entry account system of the transfer agent for Class A Common Stock, and, in either case, regardless of whether a copy
of the Summary of Rights is submitted with the surrender or request for transfer) shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights
associated with the shares of Class A Common Stock being transferred.

 

3.3             
If certificates for shares of Class A Common Stock are issued (including, without limitation, shares of Class A Common Stock
acquired by the Company as noted in this Section 3.3) after the Record Date but prior to the earliest of (i) the Close of Business
on the Distribution Date, (ii) the Redemption Date or (iii) the Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date, these certificates
shall have impressed on, printed on, written on or otherwise affixed to them, in addition to any legend required by the MGCL, Charter
or Bylaws, a legend in substantially the following form:

 

This certificate also represents
and entitles the holder hereof to certain Rights as set forth in a Rights Agreement between American Finance Trust, Inc. and Computershare
Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent (or any successor Rights Agent), dated as of April 13, 2020, as it may from time to time be
amended or supplemented pursuant to its terms (the “Rights Agreement”), the terms of which are hereby incorporated
herein by reference and a copy of which is on file at the principal executive offices of American Finance Trust, Inc. Under certain
circumstances, as set forth in the Rights Agreement, the Rights will be represented by separate certificates and will no longer
be represented by this certificate. American Finance Trust, Inc. will mail to the holder of this certificate a copy of the Rights
Agreement without charge after receipt of a written request therefor. Under certain circumstances, as set forth in the Rights Agreement,
Rights that are or were acquired or Beneficially Owned (as defined in the Rights Agreement) by any Person (as defined in the Rights
Agreement) who becomes an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Agreement) or an Associate or Affiliate (each as defined in
the Rights Agreement) thereof become null and void and will no longer be transferable.

 

    	 	11	 

     

    

 

With respect to any Book Entry shares of
Class A Common Stock, the foregoing legend shall be included in the Ownership Statement in respect of the Class A Common Stock
or in a notice to the record holder of these shares in accordance with applicable law. With respect to certificates containing
the foregoing legend, or any Ownership Statement or notice containing the foregoing legend delivered to holders of Book Entry shares
of Class A Common Stock, until the earliest of the Distribution Date, the Redemption Date or the Final Expiration Date, the Rights
associated with the Class A Common Stock represented by the certificates or Book Entry shares of Class A Common Stock shall be
represented by the certificates or Book Entry shares of Class A Common Stock (including any Ownership Statement) alone, and the
surrender for transfer of any such certificate or the transfer of any Book Entry shares of Class A Common Stock shall also constitute
the transfer of the Rights associated with the Class A Common Stock represented thereby. If the Company purchases or acquires any
shares of Class A Common Stock after the Record Date but prior to the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, any Rights associated
with these shares of Class A Common Stock shall be deemed canceled and retired so that the Company shall not be entitled to exercise
any Rights associated with the shares of Class A Common Stock which are no longer outstanding.

 

Notwithstanding this Section 3.3, neither
the omission of a legend nor the failure to deliver the notice of legend required hereby shall affect the enforceability of any
part of this Agreement or the rights of any holder of the Rights.

 

3.4             
Prior to the Distribution Date, holders (other than the Company) (“Unitholders”) of partnership units
of the Operating Partnership designated as “OP Units” (“Partnership Units”) shall not be deemed
as holding any Rights solely by reason of the Unitholders holding any Partnership Unit. On the Distribution Date, proper provision
shall be made by the Company in order to provide each Unitholder with the number of Rights, represented by Right Certificates,
as would be issued to the applicable Unitholder as if (i) the Unitholder had exercised its Partnership Unit Redemption Rights with
respect to all Partnership Units held by the Unitholder immediately prior to the Distribution Date and (ii) the Company had elected
to satisfy the Partnership Unit Redemption Rights by paying the Unitholder the Share Consideration (rather than the Cash Consideration)
(applying a Conversion Factor unaffected by the issuance, exercise or exchange of any Rights) immediately prior to the Distribution
Date pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement. Each Unitholder shall thereafter have all of the rights,
privileges, benefits and obligations with respect to the Rights as are provided for herein with respect to holders of Class A Common
Stock.

 

		4.	Form of Right Certificates.

 

4.1             
The Right Certificates (and the forms of election to purchase Preferred Shares and of assignment to be printed on the reverse
thereof) shall be substantially the same as set forth on Exhibit B hereto and may have any marks of identification or designation
and any legends, summaries or endorsements printed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with
the provisions of this Agreement (but which do not affect the rights, duties, liabilities or responsibilities of the Rights Agent),
or as may be required to comply with any applicable law or with any applicable rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with
any applicable rule or regulation of any stock exchange or quotation system on which the Rights may from time to time be listed
or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or to conform to usage. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the
Right Certificates, whenever distributed, shall be dated as of the Record Date and shall entitle the holders thereof to purchase
the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share as shall be set forth therein at the Purchase Price, but the amount and
type of securities issuable upon exercise and payment of the Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein.

  

    	 	12	 

     

    

 

4.2             
Any Rights Certificate issued pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 22 hereof that represents Rights which are null and void
pursuant to Section 7.6 hereof and any Rights Certificate issued pursuant to Section 6 or Section 11 hereof upon transfer, exchange,
replacement or adjustment of any other Rights Certificate referred to in this sentence, shall contain (to the extent feasible)
the following legend:

 

The Rights represented by this
Rights Certificate are or were beneficially owned by a Person who was or became an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate
of an Acquiring Person (as such terms are defined in the Rights Agreement). Accordingly, this Rights Certificate and the Rights
represented hereby are null and void in the circumstances specified in Section 7.6 of the Rights Agreement.

 

The provisions of Section 7.6 hereof shall
be operative whether or not the foregoing legend is contained on any Rights Certificate.

 

		5.	Countersignature and Registration. The Right Certificates shall be executed on behalf of
the Company by the chief executive officer or the chief financial officer of the Company or by any person authorized thereby, either
manually or by facsimile signature; and shall be attested by the secretary or any assistant secretary of the Company or the treasurer
or any assistant treasurer of the Company, either manually or by facsimile signature. The Right Certificates shall be countersigned
by the Rights Agent and shall not be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned, either manually or by facsimile. If any officer
of the Company who shall have executed or attested any of the Right Certificates shall cease to be an officer of the Company before
countersignature by the Rights Agent and issuance and delivery by the Company, the Right Certificates nevertheless may be countersigned
by the Rights Agent and issued and delivered by the Company with the same force and effect as though the Person who signed the
Right Certificates had not ceased to be an officer of the Company. Any Right Certificate may be executed or attested on behalf
of the Company by any Person who, at the actual date of the execution or attestation of the Right Certificate, is a proper officer
of the Company to execute or attest the Right Certificate, even if at the date of the execution of this Agreement the Person was
not a proper officer.

 

Following the Distribution
Date, and receipt by the Rights Agent of written notice to that effect and other relevant and necessary information referred to
in Section 3.1, the Rights Agent will keep or cause to be kept, at its principal office, books for registration of the transfer
of the Right Certificates issued hereunder. These books shall show the names and addresses of the respective holders of the Right
Certificates, the number of Rights represented on its face by each of the Right Certificates, and the date of issuance of each
of the Right Certificates.

 

    	 	13	 

     

    

 

		6.	Transfer, Split-Up, Combination and Exchange of Right Certificates; Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost
or Stolen Right Certificates.

 

6.1              Subject to the provisions of Section 14, at
any time after the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, and prior to the earlier of the Redemption Date or the Close of
Business on the Final Expiration Date, any Right Certificate (other than a Right Certificate representing Rights that have become
null and void pursuant to Section 7.6 or that have been exchanged pursuant to Section 24) may be transferred, split up, combined
or exchanged for another Right Certificate, entitling the registered holder to purchase a like number of Preferred Shares (or,
following a Triggering Event, shares of Class A Common Stock, other securities, cash or other assets, as the case may be) as the
Right Certificate surrendered theretofore entitled such holder to purchase. Any registered holder desiring to transfer, split
up, combine or exchange any Right Certificate shall make a request in writing delivered to the Rights Agent, and shall surrender
the Right Certificate to be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such
purpose accompanied by signature guarantee (a “Signature Guarantee”) from an eligible guarantor institution participating
in a signature guarantee program approved by the Securities Transfer Association, and any other reasonable evidence of authority
that may be reasonably required by the Rights Agent. Thereupon, the Rights Agent shall countersign and deliver to the Person entitled
thereto a Right Certificate or Right Certificates, as the case may be, as so requested. The Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient for any tax or charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, split-up, combination or exchange of Right
Certificates. If and to the extent the Company does require payment of any taxes or charges, the Company shall give the Rights
Agent prompt written notice thereof and the Rights Agent shall not have any duty to deliver any Rights Certificate unless and
until the Rights Agent is satisfied that the required payments have been made, and the Rights Agent shall forward any sum collected
by it to the Company or to a Person or Persons specified by the Company in a written notice. The Rights Agent shall have no duty
or obligation to take any action with respect to a Rights holder under any Section of this Agreement which requires the payment
by the Rights holder of applicable taxes and charges unless and until the Rights Agent is reasonably satisfied that the required
taxes and charges have been paid.

 

 

6.2             
Subject to the provisions of Section 14, at any time after the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, and prior to
the earlier of the Redemption Date or the Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date, upon receipt by the Company and the Rights
Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a Right Certificate, and, in
case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to them, and, at the Company’s or Rights
Agent’s request, reimbursement to the Company and the Rights Agent of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and, in
case of mutilation, upon surrender to the Rights Agent and cancellation of the Right Certificate, the Company will make and deliver
a new Right Certificate of like tenor to the Rights Agent for delivery to the registered holder in lieu of the Right Certificate
so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated.

 

6.3             
Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company and the Rights Agent may amend this Rights Agreement to provide
for uncertificated Rights in addition to or in place of Rights represented by Rights Certificates, to the extent permitted by applicable
law.

 

		7.	Exercise of Rights; Purchase Price; Expiration Date of Rights.

 

7.1              Except as otherwise provided herein, the Rights
shall become exercisable on the Distribution Date, and thereafter the registered holder of any Right Certificate (other than a
holder whose Rights have become null and void pursuant to Section 7.6 or have been exchanged pursuant to Section 24) may, subject
to Section 11.1.2 and except as otherwise provided herein, exercise the Rights represented thereby, in whole or in part, at any
time after the Distribution Date upon surrender of the Right Certificate, with the form of election to purchase on the reverse
side thereof properly completed and duly executed, to the Rights Agent at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose,
together with payment of the Purchase Price for each one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share represented by a Right that is exercised
and an amount equal to any applicable tax or charge required to be paid pursuant to Section 9.3, prior to the time (the “Expiration
Date”) that is the earliest of (i) the Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date, (ii) the time at which the Rights
are redeemed pursuant to Section 23, (iii) the time at which the Rights are exchanged pursuant to Section 24 or (iv) the Closing
of any merger or other acquisition transaction involving the Company pursuant to an agreement described in Section 13.3 at which
time the Rights are terminated.

 

    	 	14	 

     

    

 

7.2             
The purchase price to be paid upon the exercise of each Right to purchase one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share represented
by a Right shall initially be $35.00 (the “Purchase Price”) and shall be payable in lawful money of the
United States of America in accordance with Section 7.3. Each Right shall initially entitle the holder to acquire one one-thousandth
of a Preferred Share upon exercise of the Right. The Purchase Price and the number of Preferred Shares or other securities for
which a Right is exercisable shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Sections 11 and 13.

 

7.3              Except as otherwise provided herein, upon receipt of a Right Certificate representing exercisable Rights, with the form of election
to purchase properly completed and duly executed, accompanied by a Signature Guarantee and payment of the Purchase Price for the
number of Rights exercised and an amount equal to any applicable tax or charge required to be paid by the holder of the applicable
Right Certificate in accordance with Section 9.3 by cash, certified check, cashier’s check or money order payable to the
order of the Company, the Rights Agent shall thereupon promptly (i)(A) requisition from any transfer agent of the Preferred Shares
(or make available, if the Rights Agent is the transfer agent for the shares) certificates for the number of Preferred Shares
to be purchased (or, in the case of Book Entry Shares or other uncertificated securities, requisition from a transfer agent a
notice setting forth the number of shares or other securities to be purchased for which registration will be made on the stock
transfer books of the Company), and the Company hereby irrevocably authorizes its transfer agent to comply with all such requests,
or (B) requisition from any depositary agent for the Preferred Shares depositary receipts representing the number of Preferred
Shares to be purchased (in which case certificates for the Preferred Shares represented by the depositary receipts shall be deposited
by the transfer agent with the depositary agent), and the Company hereby directs the depositary agent to comply with such request;
(ii) when necessary to comply with this Agreement, requisition from the Company the amount of cash to be paid in lieu of issuance
of fractional Preferred Shares in accordance with Section 14; (iii) after receipt of the certificates or depositary receipts,
cause the same to be delivered to the registered holder of the applicable Right Certificate or, upon the order of the registered
holder, in the name or names as may be designated by the holder; and (iv) when necessary to comply with this Agreement, after
receipt, deliver cash to the registered holder of the applicable Right Certificate or, upon the order of the registered holder,
the Person or Persons as may be designated by the holder. The Company reserves the right to require that, upon any exercise of
Rights, a number of Rights be exercised so that only whole Preferred Shares would be issued.

 

    	 	15	 

     

    

 

7.4             
Except as otherwise provided herein, if the registered holder of any Right Certificate shall exercise less than all the
Rights represented thereby, a new Right Certificate representing Rights equivalent to the exercisable Rights remaining unexercised
shall be issued by the Rights Agent to the registered holder of the Right Certificate or to the holder’s duly authorized
assigns, subject to the provisions of Section 14.

 

7.5             
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Rights Agent nor the Company shall be obligated
to undertake any action with respect to a registered holder of Rights upon the occurrence of any purported transfer or exercise
of Rights as set forth in Section 6 or this Section 7 unless the registered holder shall have (i) properly completed and signed
the certificate contained in the form of assignment or form of election to purchase set forth on the reverse side of the Right
Certificate surrendered for transfer or exercise, (ii) tendered the Purchase Price (and an amount equal to any applicable transfer
tax required to be paid by the holder of such Right Certificate in accordance with Section 9) to the Company in the manner set
forth in Section 7.3 and (iii) provided any additional evidence of the identity of the Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner)
or Affiliates or Associates thereof as the Company and the Rights Agent shall reasonably request.

 

7.6             
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, from and after the first occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event,
any Rights that are or were acquired or Beneficially Owned by (i) an Acquiring Person or an Associate or Affiliate of an Acquiring
Person, (ii) a transferee of an Acquiring Person (or of any Associate or Affiliate thereof) who becomes a transferee after the
Acquiring Person became such, or (iii) a transferee of an Acquiring Person (or of any Associate or Affiliate thereof) who becomes
a transferee prior to or concurrently with the Acquiring Person’s becoming such and receives such Rights pursuant to either
(A) a transfer (whether or not for consideration) from the Acquiring Person to holders of equity interests in such Acquiring Person
or to any Person with whom the Acquiring Person has any continuing agreement, arrangement or understanding regarding the transferred
Rights, (B) a transfer which the Continuing Directors have determined, within one hundred and eighty (180) days for limiting the
power of future directors to vote in this regard following a Section 23.1 Event, by a majority of the Continuing Directors, or
if such determination is not made until after such period expires, by a majority of the Board, is part of a plan, arrangement or
understanding which has as a primary purpose or effect the avoidance of this Section 7.6 or (C) a transfer pursuant to Section
5.7 of the Charter to a trust, shall become null and void without any further action and no holder of such Rights shall have any
rights whatsoever with respect to such Rights, whether under any provision of this Agreement or otherwise. The Company shall use
all reasonable efforts to insure that the provisions of this Section 7.6 and Section 4.2 hereof are complied with, but the Company
and the Rights Agent shall have no liability to any holder of Rights Certificates or other Person as a result of the Company’s
failure to make any determinations with respect to an Acquiring Person or its Affiliates, Associates or transferees hereunder.

 

		8.	Cancellation and Destruction of Right Certificates. All Right Certificates surrendered for
the purpose of exercise, transfer, split-up, combination or exchange shall, if surrendered to the Company or to any of its agents,
be delivered to the Rights Agent for cancellation or in canceled form, or, if surrendered to the Rights Agent, shall be canceled
by it, and no Right Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this
Agreement. The Company shall deliver to the Rights Agent for cancellation and retirement, and the Rights Agent shall so cancel
and retire, any other Right Certificate representing Rights purchased or acquired by the Company otherwise than upon the exercise
thereof. The Rights Agent shall deliver all canceled Right Certificates to the Company, or shall, at the written request of the
Company, destroy the canceled Right Certificates, and in such case shall deliver a certificate of destruction thereof to the Company.

 

    	 	16	 

     

    

 

		9.	Status and Availability of Preferred Shares.

 

9.1             
The Company covenants and agrees that at all times prior to the occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event, it will cause to be
reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued Preferred Shares, or any authorized and unissued Preferred Shares,
the number of Preferred Shares that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Rights and, after the
occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event, shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, so reserve and keep available a sufficient number
of shares of Class A Common Stock (or other securities) that may be required to permit the exercise in full of the Rights pursuant
to this Agreement.

 

9.2             
The Company shall take all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Preferred Shares (or other securities
of the Company) delivered upon exercise of Rights shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for the Preferred Shares (or
other securities of the Company), subject to payment of the Purchase Price, be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully
paid and non-assessable shares.

 

9.3             
The Company shall pay when due and payable any and all federal and state transfer taxes and charges which may be payable
in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Right Certificates or the issuance and delivery of any certificates or depository
receipts or entries in the Book Entry account system of the transfer agent for any Preferred Shares (or other securities of the
Company) upon the exercise of Rights. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any transfer tax or charges which may
be payable in respect of any transfer or delivery of Right Certificates to a Person other than, or the issuance or delivery of
certificates or depositary receipts for the Preferred Shares (or other securities of the Company) in a name other than that of,
the registered holder of the Right Certificate representing Rights surrendered for exercise, and shall not be required to issue
or deliver any certificates or depositary receipts for Preferred Shares (or other securities of the Company) upon the exercise
of any Rights until any required tax or charge shall have been paid (any required tax or charge being payable by the holder of
the Right Certificate at the time of surrender) or until it has been established to the Company’s or Rights Agent’s
reasonable satisfaction that no transfer tax or charge is due.

 

9.4             
So long as the Preferred Shares (and, after the occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event, shares of Class A Common Stock or
any other securities) issuable upon the exercise of the Rights may be listed on any national securities exchange, the Company shall
use its best efforts to cause, from and after such time as the Rights become exercisable, all shares reserved for such issuance
to be listed on an exchange upon official notice of issuance upon exercise of the Rights.

 

    	 	17	 

     

    

 

9.5             
The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to: (i) file, as soon as practicable following the earliest date after the
first occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event in which the consideration to be delivered by the Company upon exercise of the Rights
has been determined in accordance with this Agreement, a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Rights
and the securities issuable upon exercise of the Rights on an appropriate form, (ii) cause the registration statement to become
effective as soon as practicable after filing the registration statement, (iii) cause the registration statement to remain effective
(with a prospectus at all times meeting the requirements of the Securities Act) until the earlier of (A) the date as of which the
Rights are no longer exercisable for securities or (B) the Expiration Date.  The Company will also take any action as may
be appropriate under, or to ensure compliance with, the securities or “blue sky” laws of the various jurisdictions
in connection with the exercise of the Rights.  The Company may, acting by resolution of the Board of Directors, temporarily
suspend, for a period of time not to exceed ninety (90) days after the date set forth in clause (i) of the first sentence of this
Section 9.5, the exercise of the Rights in order to prepare and file the registration statement stating that exercise of the Rights
has been temporarily suspended, as well as a public announcement at the time the suspension is no longer in effect.  In addition,
if the Company shall determine that a registration statement is required in other circumstances following the Distribution Date,
the Company may similarly temporarily suspend exercise of the Rights until such time as a registration statement has been declared
effective.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Rights shall not be exercised in any jurisdiction
if the requisite qualification in the applicable jurisdiction shall not have been obtained, the exercise thereof shall not otherwise
be permitted under applicable law or a registration statement shall not have been declared effective.

 

		10.	Preferred Shares Record Date. Each Person in whose name any certificate or entry in the
Book Entry account system of the transfer agent for the Preferred Shares is issued upon the exercise of Rights shall for all purposes
be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Preferred Shares (or other securities of the Company) represented thereby
on, and the certificate shall be dated, the date upon which the Right Certificate representing the Rights was duly surrendered
and payment of the Purchase Price (and any applicable taxes and charges) was made; provided, however, that, if the date
of surrender and payment is a date upon which the Preferred Shares transfer books of the Company are closed, the Person shall be
deemed to have become the record holder of the Preferred Shares on, and the certificate shall be dated, the next succeeding Business
Day on which the Preferred Shares transfer books of the Company are open. Prior to the exercise of the Rights represented thereby,
the holder of a Right Certificate shall not be entitled to any rights of a holder of Preferred Shares for which the Rights shall
be exercisable, including, without limitation, the right to vote, to receive dividends or other distributions, or to exercise any
preemptive rights, and shall not be entitled to receive any notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as provided herein.

 

		11.	Adjustment of Purchase Price, Number of Shares or Number of Rights.

 

11.1         
General. The Purchase Price, the number of Preferred Shares covered by each Right and the number of Rights outstanding
are subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 11.

 

    	 	18	 

     

    

 

11.1.1   
In the event the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement (i) declare a dividend on the Preferred Shares
payable in Preferred Shares, (ii) subdivide the outstanding Preferred Shares into a larger number of Preferred Shares, (iii) combine
the outstanding Preferred Shares into a smaller number of Preferred Shares or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification
of the Preferred Shares (including any reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the
continuing or surviving corporation), except as otherwise provided in this Section 11.1 and Section 7.6, the Purchase Price in
effect, and the number and kind of shares of capital stock issuable upon the exercise of each Right, after the record date for
the dividend or the effective date of the subdivision, combination or reclassification, as applicable, shall be proportionately
adjusted so that the holder of any Right exercised after such time shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of
shares of capital stock which, if the Right had been exercised immediately prior to such date and at a time when the Preferred
Shares transfer books of the Company were open, the holder would have owned upon exercise of the Right and been entitled to receive
by virtue of the dividend, subdivision, combination or reclassification, as applicable; provided, however, that in
no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of
capital stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of one Right. If an event occurs which would require an adjustment under both
Section 11.1.1 and Section 11.1.2 hereof, the adjustment provided for in this Section 11.1.1 shall be in addition to, and shall
be made prior to any adjustment required pursuant to Section 11.1.2 hereof.

 

11.1.2   
Subject to Section 7.6 and Section 24, in the event any Person becomes an Acquiring Person (other than by means of a Permitted
Offer or a Section 13 Event) and the Board of Directors authorizes the Company to issue Rights Certificates under Section 3.1 (the
 “Section 11.1.2 Event”), then, each holder of a Right (except as provided below and in Section 7.6 hereof) shall
thereafter have a right to receive (subject to the last sentence of Section 23.1 hereof), upon exercise thereof at a price equal
to the then current Purchase Price, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and in lieu of a number of one one-thousandths
of a Preferred Share, a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the result obtained by (x) multiplying the then current
Purchase Price by the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share for which a Right was exercisable immediately prior to
the first occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event, and (y) dividing that product (which, following the first occurrence, shall thereafter
be referred to as the “Purchase Price” for each Right and for all purposes of this Agreement) by 50% of the
then Current Per Share Market Price of the shares of Class A Common Stock (determined pursuant to Section 11.4) on the date of
the first occurrence (the number of shares of stock being referred to as the “Adjustment Shares”); provided,
however, that if the transaction that would otherwise give rise to the foregoing adjustment is also subject to the provisions
of Section 13 hereof, then only the provisions of Section 13 hereof shall apply and no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this
Section 11.1.2.

 

11.1.3   
In the event that the number of shares of Class A Common Stock authorized by the Charter (as the same may be amended and
restated from time to time) but not outstanding or reserved for issuance for purposes other than exercise of the Rights is not
sufficient to permit the exercise in full of the Rights in accordance with the foregoing Section 11.1.2 and the Board of Directors
determines not to amend the Charter to authorize additional shares of Class A Common Stock, the Company, acting by resolution of
the Board of Directors, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law and any material agreements then in effect to which the
Company is a party, (A) determine the value of the Adjustment Shares issuable upon the exercise of a Right in accordance with the
foregoing Section 11.1.2 (the “Current Value”) and the amount by which it exceeds the Purchase Price attributable
to each Right (the excess being referred to as the “Spread”), and (B) with respect to each Right (other than
Rights that have become void pursuant to Section 7.6), make adequate provision to substitute for the Adjustment Shares, upon the
exercise of the Right and payment of the applicable Purchase Price, (1) cash, (2) a reduction in Purchase Price, (3) shares of
Class A Common Stock, (4) equity securities of the Company other than shares of Class A Common Stock (including, without limitation,
Preferred Shares or units of Preferred Shares which the Board of Directors has deemed to have essentially the same value or economic
rights as shares of Class A Common Stock (“Common Stock Equivalents”), (5) debt securities of the Company, (6)
other assets or (7) any combination of any or all of the foregoing which, when added to the value of the shares of Class A Common
Stock issued upon exercise of the Right, have an aggregate value equal to the Current Value (less the amount of any reduction in
the Purchase Price), where the aggregate value has been determined by the Board of Directors; provided, however, if the
Company shall not have made adequate provision to deliver value pursuant to clause (B) above within thirty (30) days following
the later of (x) the first occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event and (y) the date on which the Company’s right of redemption
pursuant to Section 23.1 hereof, as the date may be amended by Section 27 hereof, expires, then the Company shall be obligated
to deliver, to the extent permitted by applicable law and any material agreements then in effect to which the Company is a party,
upon the surrender for exercise of a Right and without requiring payment of the Purchase Price, shares of Class A Common Stock
(to the extent available) and then, if necessary, cash, which shares and/or cash have an aggregate value equal to the Spread.

 

    	 	19	 

     

    

 

11.2         
If the Board of Directors fixes a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all holders of Preferred
Shares entitling them (for a period expiring within forty-five (45) calendar days after the record date) to subscribe for or purchase
Preferred Shares, or shares having the same rights, privileges and preferences as the Preferred Shares (“Equivalent Preferred
Shares”), or securities convertible into Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares at a price per Preferred Share
or Equivalent Preferred Share (or having a conversion price per share, if a security convertible into Preferred Shares or Equivalent
Preferred Shares) less than the then Current Per Share Market Price of the Preferred Shares (as determined pursuant to Section
11.4.2) on the record date, the Purchase Price to be in effect after the record date shall be adjusted by multiplying the Purchase
Price in effect immediately prior to the record date by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be (A) the number of Preferred
Shares outstanding on the record date plus (B) the number of Preferred Shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number
of Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares to be offered (or the aggregate initial conversion price of the convertible
securities to be offered) would purchase at the then Current Per Share Market Price and (ii) the denominator of which shall be
(A) the number of Preferred Shares outstanding on the record date plus (B) the number of additional Preferred Shares or Equivalent
Preferred Shares to be offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities to be offered are initially
convertible); provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right
be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of one Right. If such
subscription price may be paid in a consideration part or all of which shall be in a form other than cash, the value of such consideration
shall be as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent.
Preferred Shares owned by or held for the account of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall not be deemed outstanding
for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever a record date is fixed. If such rights,
options or warrants are not so issued, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted to be the Purchase Price that would then be in effect
if the record date had not been fixed.

 

    	 	20	 

     

    

 

11.3         
If the Board of Directors fixes a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of the Preferred Shares (including
any distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation)
of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than a regular quarterly cash dividend or a dividend payable in Preferred Shares)
or subscription rights or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section 11.2), the Purchase Price to be in effect after the
record date shall be determined by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the record date by a fraction,
(i) the numerator of which shall be the then Current Per Share Market Price of the Preferred Shares (as determined pursuant to
Section 11.4.2) on the record date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall
be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent and shall be binding on the Rights Agent) of the portion of the assets
or evidences of indebtedness to be distributed or of such subscription rights or warrants applicable to one Preferred Share and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be the then Current Per Share Market Price of the Preferred Shares; provided, however,
that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the
shares of capital stock of the Company to be issued upon exercise of one Right. These adjustments shall be made successively whenever
a record date is fixed. If a distribution is not so made, the Purchase Price shall again be adjusted to be the Purchase Price that
would then be in effect if the record date had not been fixed.

 

11.4         
Current Per Share Market Price.

 

11.4.1   
Except as otherwise provided herein, for the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “Current Per Share Market
Price” of any security (a “Security” for the purpose of this Section 11.4.1) on any date shall be
deemed to be the average of the daily closing prices per share of the Security for the thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days immediately
prior to but not including such date; provided, however, that if the Current Per Share Market Price of the Security
is determined during a period (i) following the announcement by the issuer of the Security of (A) a dividend or distribution on
the Security payable in shares of the Security or other securities convertible into shares of the Security, or (B) any subdivision,
combination or reclassification of the Security of other securities convertible into the Security, and (ii) prior to the expiration
of thirty (30) Trading Days after (but not including) the ex-dividend date for a dividend or distribution, or the record date for
a subdivision, combination or reclassification, then, and in each case, the Current Per Share Market Price shall be appropriately
adjusted to reflect the current market price per share equivalent of the Security. The closing
price for each day shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case no sale takes place on the applicable day, the average
of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported by the principal consolidated transaction reporting
system with respect to securities listed or admitted to trading on the NYSE or NASDAQ or, if the Security is not listed or admitted
to trading on the NYSE or NASDAQ, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities
listed on the principal national securities exchange on which the Security is listed or admitted to trading or, if the Security
is not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price or, if not so quoted, the average
of the high and low asked prices in the over-the-counter market as reported by any system then in use, or, if not so quoted, the
average of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the Security selected
by the Board of Directors of the Company. If no market maker is making a market in the Security, the fair value of the Security
on the applicable date as determined by the Board of Directors shall be used.

 

    	 	21	 

     

    

 

11.4.2   
For the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “Current Per Share Market Price” of the Preferred Shares,
if the Preferred Shares are publicly traded, shall be determined in accordance with the method set forth in Section 11.4.1. If
the Preferred Shares are not publicly traded, the “Current Per Share Market Price” of the Preferred Shares shall
be conclusively deemed to be the Current Per Share Market Price of the shares of Class A Common Stock as determined pursuant to
Section 11.4.1 (appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date
hereof) multiplied by one thousand. If neither the shares of Class A Common Stock nor the Preferred Shares are publicly held or
so listed or traded, “Current Per Share Market Price” means the fair value per share as determined by the Board
of Directors, whose determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent and shall be binding on the Rights
Agent.

 

11.5         
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no adjustment in the Purchase Price shall be required unless an adjustment
would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Purchase Price; provided, however, that any adjustments
which by reason of this Section 11.5 are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent
adjustment. All calculations under this Section 11 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one ten-millionth of a Preferred
Share or one ten-thousandth of any other share or security as the case may be. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section
11.5, any adjustment required by this Section 11 shall be made no later than the earlier of (i) three years from the date of the
transaction which requires an adjustment and (ii) the date of the expiration of the right to exercise any Rights.

 

11.6         
If, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 11.1 or Section 13.1, the holder of any Right thereafter exercised
shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than Preferred Shares, the Purchase Price and
number of any other shares so receivable upon exercise of any Right shall thereafter be subject to adjustment from time to time
in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Preferred Shares contained in
Sections 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 11.5, 11.8, 11.9, 11.10, 11.11, 11.12, 11.13 and the provisions of Sections 7, 9, 10, 13 and 14 with
respect to the Preferred Shares shall apply on like terms to any other shares; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be liable for its inability to reserve and keep available for issuance upon exercise of the Rights pursuant to Section 11.1.2
a number of shares of Class A Common Stock greater than the number then authorized by the Charter but not outstanding or reserved
for any other purpose.

 

11.7         
All Rights originally issued by the Company subsequent to any adjustment made to the Purchase Price hereunder shall evidence
the right to purchase, at the adjusted Purchase Price, the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share purchasable from
time to time hereunder upon exercise of the Rights, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

 

    	 	22	 

     

    

 

11.8         
Unless the Company exercises its election as provided in Section 11.9, upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price as a result
of the calculations made in Sections 11.2 and 11.3, each Right outstanding immediately prior to the making of any adjustment shall
thereafter constitute the right to purchase, at the adjusted Purchase Price, that number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred
Share (calculated to the nearest one ten-millionth of a Preferred Share) obtained by (i) multiplying the number of one one-thousandths
of a Preferred Share into which the Right is exercisable immediately prior to this adjustment by the Purchase Price in effect immediately
prior to adjusting the Purchase Price and (ii) dividing the product by the Purchase Price in effect immediately after adjusting
the Purchase Price.

 

11.9         
The Company may elect on or after the date of any adjustment of the Purchase Price to adjust the number of Rights in substitution
for any adjustment in the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share issuable upon the exercise of a Right. Each of the
Rights outstanding after adjusting the number of Rights shall be exercisable for the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred
Share for which a Right was exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment. Each Right held of record prior to adjusting the number
of Rights shall become that number of Rights (calculated to the nearest one hundred-thousandth) obtained by dividing the Purchase
Price in effect immediately prior to adjustment of the Purchase Price by the Purchase Price in effect immediately after adjustment
of the Purchase Price. The Company shall make a public announcement of its election to adjust the number of Rights (with written
notice thereof to the Rights Agent), indicating the record date for the adjustment and, if known at the time, the amount of the
adjustment to be made. The record date may be the date on which the Purchase Price is adjusted or any day thereafter but, if the
Right Certificates have been distributed, shall be at least ten (10) days after the date of the public announcement. If Right Certificates
have been distributed, upon each adjustment of the number of Rights pursuant to this Section 11.9, the Company shall, as promptly
as practicable, cause to be distributed to holders of record of Rights on the applicable record date Right Certificates representing,
subject to Section 14, the additional Rights to which these holders shall be entitled as a result of the adjustment or, at the
option of the Company, shall cause to be distributed to the holders of record in substitution and replacement for the Right Certificates
held by these holders prior to the date of adjustment, and upon surrender thereof if required by the Company, new Right Certificates
representing all the Rights to which these holders shall be entitled after the adjustment. Right Certificates to be so distributed
shall be issued, executed and delivered by the Company, and countersigned and delivered by the Rights Agent, in the manner provided
for herein and shall be registered in the names of the holders of record of Rights on the record date specified in the public announcement.

 

11.10     
Irrespective of any adjustment or change in the Purchase Price or the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share
issuable upon the exercise of the Rights, the Right Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued may continue to express the
Purchase Price and the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share which were expressed in the initial Right Certificates
issued hereunder.

 

    	 	23	 

     

    

 

11.11     
Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Purchase Price below the then par value of the fraction
of Preferred Shares or other shares of capital stock issuable upon exercise of the Rights, the Company shall take any corporate
action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid
and non-assessable Preferred Shares or any other shares at the adjusted Purchase Price.

 

11.12     
If this Section 11 requires that an adjustment in the Purchase Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified
event, the Company may elect to defer (with notice thereof to the Rights Agent), until the occurrence of the specified event, issuing
to the holder of any Right exercised after the record date of the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share and other
capital stock or securities of the Company, if any, issuable upon the exercise over and above the number of one one-thousandths
of a Preferred Share and other capital stock or securities of the Company, if any, issuable upon the exercise on the basis of the
Purchase Price in effect prior to the adjustment; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the applicable
holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing the holder’s right to receive additional securities upon the
occurrence of the event requiring an adjustment.

 

11.13     
Anything in this Section 11 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled to make any adjustments in the
Purchase Price, in addition to those adjustments expressly required by this Section 11, as and to the extent that the Board of
Directors, in its sole discretion, shall determine to be advisable in order that any (i) combination, consolidation or subdivision
of the Preferred Shares, (ii) issuance wholly for cash of any Preferred Shares at less than the Current Per Share Market Price,
(iii) issuance wholly for cash of Preferred Shares or securities which by their terms are convertible into or exchangeable for
Preferred Shares, (iv) dividends on Preferred Shares payable in Preferred Shares, or (v) issuance of any rights, options or warrants
referred to in Section 11.2 made by the Company after the date of this Agreement to holders of its Preferred Shares shall not be
taxable to these stockholders.

 

11.14     
If, at any time after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Distribution Date, the Company (i) declares or pays any
dividend on the shares of Class A Common Stock payable in shares of Class A Common Stock or (ii) effects a subdivision, combination
or consolidation of the shares of Class A Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise other than by payment of dividends in
shares of Class A Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Class A Common Stock, then (i) the number of one one-thousandths
of a Preferred Share purchasable after the applicable event upon exercise of each Right shall be determined by multiplying the
number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share so purchasable immediately prior to the applicable event by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately before the applicable event and the
denominator of which is the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after the applicable event, and (ii)
each share of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after the applicable event shall have issued with respect to it that
number of Rights which each share of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the applicable event had issued with
respect to it. The adjustments provided for in this Section 11.14 shall be made successively whenever a dividend is declared or
paid or a subdivision, combination or consolidation is effected. If an event occurs that would require an adjustment under Section
11.1.2 and this Section 11.14, the adjustment provided in this Section 11.14 shall be in addition and prior to any adjustment required
pursuant to Section 11.1.2.

 

    	 	24	 

     

    

 

		12.	Certificate of Adjustment. Whenever an adjustment is made as provided in Section 11 or
                                                                  Section 13, the Company shall promptly (i) prepare a certificate setting forth the adjustment and a brief statement of the
                                                                  facts accounting for the adjustment in reasonable detail, (ii) file with the Rights Agent and with each transfer agent for
                                                                  the Class A Common Stock and the Preferred Stock, as applicable, a copy of the certificate, and (iii) if the adjustment
                                                                  occurs following a Distribution Date, mail a brief summary thereof to each holder of a Right Certificate in accordance with
                                                                  Section 25 (if so required under Section 25) and Section 26. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the failure of the
                                                                  Company to make a certification or give notice shall not affect the validity of an adjustment or the force or effect of the
                                                                  requirement for an adjustment. The Rights Agent shall be fully protected in relying on any certificate of adjustment and on
                                                                  any adjustment therein contained and shall not be obligated or responsible for calculating any adjustment, nor shall the
                                                                  Rights Agent be deemed to have any liability therefor or knowledge of any adjustment, unless and until it shall have received
                                                                  the applicable certificate.

 

		13.	Consolidation, Merger, Sale or Transfer of Assets or Earning Power.

 

13.1         
If, at any time after a Stock Acquisition Date, (i) the Company consolidates with, or merges with and into, any other Person;
(ii) any Person consolidates with the Company, or merges with and into the Company, and the Company is the continuing or surviving
corporation of the transaction and, in connection with the transaction, all or part of the shares of Class A Common Stock are or
will be changed into or exchanged for stock or other securities of any other Person (or the Company) or cash or any other property;
or (iii) the Company sells or otherwise transfers (or one or more of its Subsidiaries sell or otherwise transfer), in one or more
transactions, assets or Earning Power aggregating 50% or more of the assets or Earning Power of the Company and its Subsidiaries
(taken as a whole) to any other Person other than the Company or one or more of its wholly owned Subsidiaries (each of the foregoing
events, a “Section 13 Event”), then, upon the first occurrence of any Section 13 Events, proper provision shall
be made so that (A) each holder of a Right (except for Rights which have become null and void pursuant to Section 7.6) shall thereafter
have the right to receive, upon the exercise of a Right, at a price equal to the then current Purchase Price, in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement and in lieu of Preferred Shares, the number of shares of Common Stock of such other Person (including
the Company as successor thereto or as the surviving corporation) equal to the result obtained by (1) multiplying the then current
Purchase Price by the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share for which a Right is exercisable immediately prior to
the first occurrence of a Section 13 Event (or, if a Section 11.1.2 Event has occurred prior to the first occurrence of a Section
13 Event, multiplying the number of such one one-thousandths of a share for which a Right was exercisable prior to the occurrence
of a Section 11.1.2 Event by the Purchase Price in effect prior to the occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event), and (2) dividing
that product (which, following the occurrence of a Section 13 Event, shall be referred to as the “Purchase Price”
for each Right and for all purposes of this Agreement) by fifty percent (50%) of the then Current Per Share Market Price of the
shares of Common Stock of the other Person (determined pursuant to Section 11.4.1 hereof) on the date of consummation of such Section
13 Event; (B) the issuer of the shares of Common Stock shall thereafter be liable for, and shall assume, by virtue of the Section
13 Event, all the obligations and duties of the Company pursuant to this Agreement; (C) the term “Company” shall thereafter
be deemed to refer to the issuer of the shares of Common Stock; and (D) the issuer shall take steps (including, but not limited
to, the reservation of a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock in accordance with Section 9.1) in connection with the
consummation of the applicable transaction as may be necessary to ensure that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable,
as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to the Common Stock thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Rights; provided
that, upon the subsequent occurrence of any consolidation, merger, sale or transfer of assets or other extraordinary transaction
in respect of the issuer, each holder of a Right shall thereupon be entitled to receive, upon exercise of a Right and payment of
the Purchase Price as provided in this Section 13.1, cash, shares, rights, warrants and other property which the holder would have
been entitled to receive had the holder, at the time of the applicable transaction, owned shares of Common Stock of the issuer
receivable upon the exercise of a Right pursuant to this Section 13.1, and the issuer shall take all steps (including, but not
limited to, reservation of shares of stock) necessary to permit the subsequent exercise of the Rights in accordance with the terms
hereof for cash, shares, rights, warrants and other property.

13.2         
The Company shall not consummate any consolidation, merger, sale or transfer unless prior thereto the Company and the issuer
of the shares of Common Stock shall have executed and delivered to the Rights Agent a supplemental agreement providing for the
issuer’s compliance with this Section 13. The Company shall not enter into any transaction of the kind referred to in this
Section 13 if, at the time of the applicable transaction, there are any rights, warrants, instruments or securities outstanding
or any agreements or arrangements which, as a result of the consummation of the applicable transaction, would eliminate or substantially
diminish the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights. The provisions of this Section 13 shall apply to successive mergers,
consolidations or sales or other transfers. In the event that a Section 13 Event shall occur at any time after the occurrence of
a Section 11.1.2 Event, the Rights that have not theretofore been exercised shall thereafter become exercisable in the manner described
in Section 13.1.

 

13.3         
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event of any merger or other acquisition transaction involving
the Company pursuant to a merger or other acquisition agreement between the Company and any Person (or one or more of the Person’s
Affiliates or Associates) which agreement has been approved by the Board of Directors prior to any Person becoming an Acquiring
Person, this Agreement and the rights of holders of Rights hereunder shall be terminated in accordance with Section 7.1.

 

13.4         
For purposes hereof, the “Earning Power” of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be determined in good
faith by the Board of Directors on the basis of the operating earnings of each business operated by the Company and its Subsidiaries
during the three fiscal years preceding the date of determination (or, in the case of any business not operated by the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries during three full fiscal years preceding the date of determination, during the period the applicable
business was operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries).

 

		14.	Fractional Rights and Fractional Shares.

 

14.1         
The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Rights or to distribute Right Certificates which represent fractional
Rights. In lieu of issuing fractional Rights, the Company has the option to pay to each registered holder of the Right Certificates
with regard to which the fractional Rights would otherwise be issuable an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current
market value of a whole Right. For the purposes of this Section 14.1, the current market value of a whole Right shall be the closing
price (as determined in accordance with Section 11.4) of the Rights for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date on which
the fractional Rights would have been otherwise issuable.

 

    	 	26	 

     

    

 

14.2         
The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of its stock upon the exercise of the Rights or to distribute
certificates which represent fractional shares (other than, in each case with respect to Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred
Shares, fractions which are integral multiples of one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share or an Equivalent Preferred Share, as
the case may be). Fractions of Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares in integral multiples of one one-thousandth of a
Preferred Share or a Equivalent Preferred Share, as applicable, may, at the election of the Company, be represented by depositary
receipts, pursuant to an agreement between the Company and a depositary selected by the Company; provided that the agreement
shall provide that the holders of depositary receipts shall have all the rights, privileges and preferences to which they are entitled
as Beneficial Owners of the Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares represented by the depositary receipts. In lieu of
fractional shares, the Company has the option to pay to each registered holder of Right Certificates at the time the Rights are
exercised or exchanged as herein provided an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of a share of
its stock. For the purposes of this Section 14.2, the current market value of a share of stock shall be the closing price (as determined
in accordance with Section 11.4.1) of the applicable shares of stock for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of exercise
or exchange. 

 

14.3         
[Reserved]

 

14.4         
The holder of a Right by the acceptance of the Right expressly waives any right to receive fractional Rights or fractional
shares upon exercise of a Right (except as provided in this Section 14).

 

14.5         
Whenever a payment for fractional Rights or fractional shares is to be made by the Rights Agent, the Company shall (i) promptly
prepare and deliver to the Rights Agent a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the facts related to the payments and
the prices or formulas utilized in calculating the payments, and (ii) provide sufficient monies to the Rights Agent in the form
of fully collected funds to make the payments. The Rights Agent shall be fully protected in relying upon the Company’s certificate
and shall have no duty with respect to, and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any payment for fractional Rights or fractional
shares under any Section of this Agreement relating to the payment of fractional Rights or fractional shares unless and until the
Rights Agent shall have received the certificate and sufficient monies.

 

		15.	Rights of Action. All rights of action in respect of this Agreement, excepting the
                                                                  rights of action given to the Rights Agent under Section 18, are vested in the respective registered holders of the Rights.
                                                                  Any holder of Right may, without the consent of the Rights Agent or of the holder of any other Right, on the holder’s
                                                                  own behalf and for the holder’s own benefit, enforce, and may institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding
                                                                  against the Company to enforce, or otherwise act in respect of, the holder’s right to exercise the Rights represented
                                                                  by the Right Certificate in the manner provided in the Right Certificate and in this Agreement. Without limiting the
                                                                  foregoing or any remedies available to the holders of Rights, it is specifically acknowledged that holders of Rights would
                                                                  not have an adequate remedy at law for any breach by the Company of this Agreement and will be entitled to specific
                                                                  performance of the obligations under, and injunctive relief against any actual or threatened violation by the Company of its
                                                                  obligations under this Agreement.

 

    	 	27	 

     

    

 

		16.	Agreement of Right Holders. Every holder of a Right, by accepting the same, consents and
agrees with the Company and the Rights Agent and with every other holder of a Right that:

 

16.1         
prior to the Distribution Date, the Rights will be transferable only in connection with the transfer of the shares of Class
A Common Stock;

 

16.2          after the Distribution Date, the Rights are transferable
only on the registry books maintained by the Rights Agent if the Rights Certificate representing the Rights is surrendered at
office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose accompanied by a Signature Guarantee, duly endorsed or accompanied by a
proper instrument of transfer; and

 

16.3         
the Company and the Rights Agent may deem and treat the Person in whose name the Right Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution
Date, the associated Class A Common Stock certificate or Book Entry shares in respect of Class A Common Stock) is registered as
the absolute owner thereof and of the Rights represented thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing on the
Right Certificates or the associated Class A Common Stock certificate (or Ownership Statements or notices provided to holders of
Book Entry shares of Class A Common Stock) made by anyone other than the Company or the Rights Agent) for all purposes whatsoever,
and neither the Company nor the Rights Agent, subject to Section 7.5 hereof, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

16.4         
notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Company nor the Rights Agent shall have any liability
to any holder of a Right or other Person as a result of the inability of the Company or the Rights Agent to perform any of its
or their obligations under this Agreement by reason of any preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree, judgment
or ruling issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or commission,
or any statute, rule, regulation or executive order promulgated or enacted by any governmental authority prohibiting or otherwise
restraining performance of an obligation; provided, however, that the Company must use its best efforts to have any order,
decree, judgment or ruling lifted or otherwise overturned as soon as practicable.

 

		17.	Right Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder. No holder, as such, of any Right shall be entitled
to vote or receive dividends, or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the Preferred Stock, Class A Common Stock or any other
securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise or exchange of the Rights represented thereby, nor shall
anything contained herein or in any Right Certificate be construed to confer upon the holder of any Right, as such, any of the
rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders
at any meeting thereof, to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting
stockholders (except as provided in Section 25), or to receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, until the Rights
represented by the Right Certificate shall have been exercised or exchanged in accordance with the provisions hereof.

 

    	 	28	 

     

    

 

		18.	Concerning the Rights Agent.  The Company shall pay to the Rights Agent reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in accordance with a mutually agreed upon fee schedule and, from time to time, on demand of the Rights Agent, reimburse the Rights Agent for its reasonable expenses and counsel fees and other disbursements incurred in the preparation, delivery, amendment, administration and execution of this Agreement and the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder. The Company shall also indemnify the Rights Agent for, and hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, judgment, fine, penalty, claim, demand, settlement, cost or expense (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) that may be paid, incurred or suffered by it, or which it may become subject, without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Rights Agent (which gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct must be determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) , for any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by the Rights Agent in connection with the execution, acceptance, administration, exercise and performance of its duties under this Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim or liability arising therefrom, directly or indirectly, or enforcing its rights hereunder; provided, however, that the Rights Agent shall not settle or dispose of any claims in a manner that affects the Company’s rights or interests without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

  

The Rights Agent shall
be protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in connection
with its administration of this Agreement in reliance upon any Right Certificate or certificate for shares of Preferred Stock,
Class A Common Stock or any other securities of the Company, instrument of assignment or transfer, power of attorney, endorsement,
affidavit, letter, notice, direction, consent, certificate, statement, or other paper or document believed in the absence of bad
faith by it to be genuine and to be signed, executed and, where necessary, verified or acknowledged by the proper Person or Persons,
or otherwise upon the advice of counsel as set forth in Section 20 hereof. The Rights Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge
of any event of which it was supposed to receive written notice thereof hereunder, but for which it has not received a written
notice, and the Rights Agent shall be fully protected and shall incur no liability for failing to take action in connection therewith
unless and until it has received a written notice.

 

		19.	Merger or Consolidation or Change of Name of Rights Agent. Any entity into which the Rights
Agent or any successor Rights Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger
or consolidation to which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to the shareholder
service business of the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent, shall be the successor to the Rights Agent under this Agreement
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that
such entity would be eligible for appointment as a successor Rights Agent under the provisions of Section 21. If, at the time the
successor Rights Agent shall succeed to the agency created by this Agreement, any of the Right Certificates shall have been countersigned
but not delivered, any successor Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature of the predecessor Rights Agent and deliver such Right
Certificates so countersigned. If, at that time, any of the Right Certificates shall not have been countersigned, any successor
Rights Agent may countersign the Right Certificates either in the name of the predecessor Rights Agent or in the name of the successor
Rights Agent. In all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right Certificates and in this
Agreement.

 

If, at any time, the
name of the Rights Agent changes and any of the Right Certificates have been countersigned but not delivered, the Rights Agent
may adopt the countersignature under its prior name and deliver Right Certificates so countersigned. If, at that time, any of the
Right Certificates have not been countersigned, the Rights Agent may countersign such Right Certificates either in its prior name
or in its changed name. In all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right Certificates
and in this Agreement.

 

    	 	29	 

     

    

 

The provisions of Section
18, this Section 19 and Section 20 below shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the resignation, replacement or removal
of the Rights Agent and the exercise, termination and the expiration of the Rights. In no event shall the Rights Agent be liable
for special, punitive, incidental, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to
lost profits), even if the Rights Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
the action; and the Company shall indemnify the Rights Agent and hold it harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law against
any loss, liability or expense incurred as a result of third party claims for special, punitive, incidental, indirect or consequential
loss or damages of any kind whatsoever.

 

		20.	Duties of Rights Agent. The Rights Agent undertakes the duties and obligations expressly
set forth in this Agreement (and no implied duties or obligations). The Rights Agent shall perform those duties and obligations
upon the following terms and conditions, by all of which the Company and the holders of Right Certificates, by their acceptance
thereof, shall be bound:

 

20.1         The Rights Agent may consult with legal counsel selected by it (who may be outside legal counsel for the Rights Agent or the Company),
and the advice or opinion of legal counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Rights Agent and the
Rights Agent will have no liability for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in the absence
of bad faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of legal counsel.

 

20.2        Whenever in the performance of its duties under
this Agreement the Rights Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter (including the identity of any Acquiring
Person and the determination of Current Per Share Market Price) be proved or established by the Company prior to taking, suffering,
or omitting to take any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof is specifically prescribed
herein) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by the chief executive officer or the
chief financial officer of the Company or by any person authorized thereby and delivered to the Rights Agent, and the certificate
shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Rights Agent and the Rights Agent shall incur no liability for
or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it, in the absence of bad faith, under the provisions of
this Agreement in reliance upon the certificate.

 

20.3         
The Rights Agent shall be liable to the Company and any other Person hereunder only for its own gross negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct (which gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct must be determined by a final judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction). Any liability of the Rights Agent under this Agreement shall be limited to the amount of annual fees
(not including reimbursed expenses) paid by the Company to the Rights Agent during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding
the event for which recovery from the Rights Agent is being sought.

  

    	 	30	 

     

    

 

20.4         
The Rights Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact or recitals contained in this Agreement
or in the Right Certificates (except as to its countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same. All such statements
and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Company only.

 

20.5         
The Rights Agent shall not have any liability for nor be under any responsibility in respect of the validity of this Agreement
or the execution and delivery hereof (except the due execution and delivery hereof by the Rights Agent) or in respect of the validity
or execution of any Right Certificate (except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be liable or responsible for any breach
by the Company of any covenant or failure by the Company to satisfy any condition contained in this Agreement or in any Right Certificate;
nor shall it be responsible for any adjustment required under the provisions of Sections 11 or 13 or for the manner, method or
amount of any adjustment or the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any adjustment (except with respect to
the exercise of Rights represented by Right Certificates after receipt of a certificate furnished pursuant to Section 12 describing
the adjustment); nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or
reservation of any shares of Preferred Shares or other securities to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any Right Certificate
or as to whether any Preferred Shares or other securities will, when so issued, be validly authorized and issued, fully paid, and
non-assessable.

 

20.6         
The Company shall perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered,
all such further and other acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Rights Agent for the carrying
out or performing by the Rights Agent of the provisions of this Agreement.

 

20.7         
The Rights Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties
hereunder and certificates delivered pursuant to any provision hereof from the chief executive officer or chief financial officer,
and to apply to these officers for advice or instructions in connection with its duties. The Rights Agent shall not be liable for
any action taken or suffered to be taken by it, in the absence of bad faith, in accordance with instructions of any such officer
and such advice or instruction shall be full authorization and protection to the Rights Agent and the Rights Agent shall incur
no liability for or in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted to be taken by it, in the absence of bad faith,
in accordance with advice or instructions of any such officer or for any delay in acting while waiting for those instructions.

 

20.8         
Subject to applicable law, rules and regulations, the Rights Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of
the Rights Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Rights or other securities of the Company, or become pecuniarily interested
in any transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Company, or otherwise act as fully
and freely as though it were not the Rights Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Rights Agent from acting
in any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity.

 

20.9         
The Rights Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder
either itself (through its directors, officers and employees) or by or through its attorneys or agents. The Rights Agent shall
not be answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect, or misconduct of any of its attorneys or agents or for any loss
to the Company resulting from any act, default, neglect or misconduct, absent gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith
(each as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) in the selection and continued employment of its
attorneys or agents.

 

    	 	31	 

     

    

 

20.10     
No provision of this Agreement shall require the Rights Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of its rights if there shall be reasonable grounds
for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnification against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured
to it.

 

20.11     
The Rights Agent shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any fact, event or determination (including,
without limitation, any dates or events defined in this Agreement or the designation of any Person as an Acquiring Person, Affiliate
or Associate) under this Agreement unless and until the Rights Agent shall be specifically notified in writing by the Company of
such fact, event or determination.

 

20.12       
The Rights Agent shall have no responsibility to the Company, any holders of Rights, any holders of shares of Common Stock
or any other Person for interest or earnings on any moneys held by the Rights Agent pursuant to this Agreement.

 

20.13         
In the event the Rights Agent believes any ambiguity or uncertainty exists hereunder or in any notice, instruction, direction,
request or other communication, paper or document received by the Rights Agent hereunder, the Rights Agent shall promptly notify
the Company thereof, and the Rights Agent, may, in its sole discretion, refrain from taking any action, and shall be fully protected
and shall not be liable in any way to Company, the holder of any Rights Certificate or Book-Entry shares or any other Person for
refraining from taking such action, unless the Rights Agent receives written instructions signed by the Company which eliminates
such ambiguity or uncertainty to the satisfaction of Rights Agent.

 

20.14         
The Rights Agent shall act hereunder solely as agent for the Company. The Rights Agent shall not assume any obligations
or relationship of agency or trust with any of the owners or holders of the Rights or Common Stock or Preferred Stock.

 

20.15         
The Rights Agent may rely on and be fully authorized and protected in acting or failing to act upon (a) any guaranty of
signature by an "eligible guarantor institution" that is a member or participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion
Program or other comparable "signature guarantee program" or insurance program in addition to, or in substitution for,
the foregoing; or (b) any related law, act, regulation or any interpretation of the same even though such law, act, or regulation
may thereafter have been altered, changed, amended or repealed.

 

		21.	Change of Rights Agent. The Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties under this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice in writing mailed to the Company and, in the event that the Rights Agent or one of its Affiliates is not also the transfer agent for the Company, to each transfer agent of Class A Common Stock and Preferred Stock by registered or certified mail. In the event the transfer agency relationship in effect between the Company and the Rights Agent terminates, the Rights Agent will be deemed to have resigned automatically and be discharged from its duties under this Agreement as of the effective date of termination, and the Company shall be responsible for sending any required notice. The Company may remove the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice in writing, mailed to the Rights Agent or successor Rights Agent, as the case may be, and to each transfer agent of Class A Common Stock and Preferred Stock by registered or certified mail, and, after the Distribution Date, to the holders of the Right Certificates by first class mail. If the Rights Agent shall resign or be removed or shall otherwise become incapable of acting, the Company shall appoint a successor to the Rights Agent. If the Company shall fail to appoint a successor within a period of thirty (30) days after giving notice of removal or after it has been notified in writing of the Rights Agent’s resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated Rights Agent, then the registered holder of any Right Certificate (who shall, with the notice, submit the holder’s Right Certificate for inspection by the Company) may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a new Rights Agent. Any successor Rights Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by a court, shall be a Person organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state of the United States, in good standing, which is authorized under the applicable laws to exercise corporate trust or stock transfer powers, is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, and has, along with its Affiliates, at the time of its appointment as Rights Agent a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million. After appointment, the successor Rights Agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Rights Agent without further act or deed, and the predecessor Rights Agent shall deliver and transfer to the successor Rights Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and shall execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose, but such predecessor Rights Agent shall not be required to make any additional expenditure or assume any additional liability in connection with the foregoing. Not later than the effective date of any appointment, the Company shall file notice thereof in writing with the predecessor Rights Agent and each transfer agent of Class A Common Stock and Preferred Stock, and, after the Distribution Date, mail a notice in writing to the registered holders of the Rights. Failure to give any notice provided for in this Section 21, however, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the Rights Agent or the appointment of the successor Rights Agent, as the case may be.

  

    	 	32	 

     

    

 

		22.	Issuance of New Right Certificates. Notwithstanding
any of the provisions of this Agreement or of the Right Certificates to the contrary, the Company may, at its option, issue new
Right Certificates representing Rights in such form as may be approved by its Board of Directors to reflect any adjustment or
change in the Purchase Price and the number or kind or class of shares or other securities or property purchasable under the Right
Certificates made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. In addition, in connection with the issuance or sale of
Class A Common Stock following the Distribution Date and prior to the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Close of Business
on the Final Expiration Date, the Company may, with respect to shares of Class A Common Stock so issued or sold (i) pursuant to
the exercise of stock options; (ii) under any employee plan or arrangement; (iii) upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of
securities, notes or debentures issued by the Company, or (iv) pursuant to a contractual obligation of the Company, in each case
existing prior to the Distribution Date, issue Right Certificates representing the appropriate number of Rights in connection
with such issuance or sale; provided, however, that (i) no Right Certificate shall be issued if, and to the extent that,
the Company shall be advised by counsel that the issuance would create a significant risk of material adverse tax consequences
to the Company or the Person to whom the Right Certificate would be issued or would create a significant risk of or result in
such options’ or employee plans’ or arrangements’ failing to qualify for otherwise available special tax treatment,
(ii) no Right Certificate shall be issued if, and to the extent that, appropriate adjustment shall otherwise have been made in
lieu of the issuance thereof and (iii) no Right Certificate shall be issued to an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate
of an Acquiring Person.

 

		23.	Redemption.

 

23.1         
The Board of Directors may, at its option, at any time prior to the earlier of (i) the Close of Business on the tenth (10th)
Business Day following the Stock Acquisition Date (or, if the Stock Acquisition Date shall have occurred prior to the Record Date,
the Close of Business on the tenth (10th) day following the Record Date), or (ii) the Final Expiration Date, redeem
all but not less than all of the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.0001 per one one-thousandths of a Preferred
Share represented by a Right, as appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring
after the date hereof (the “Redemption Price”). The redemption of the Rights by the Company may be made effective
at a time, on any basis and subject to any conditions as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion may establish. The Company
may, at its option, pay the Redemption Price in cash, shares of Class A Common Stock (based on the Current Per Share Market Price
at the time of redemption as determined pursuant to Section 11.4 hereof) or any other form of consideration deemed appropriate
by the Board of Directors. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Rights shall not be exercisable
after the first occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event until such time as the Company's right of redemption set forth in the first
sentence of this Section 23.1 has expired.

 

    	 	33	 

     

    

 

23.2         
Immediately upon the action of the Board of Directors (with, if required, the concurrence of a majority of the Continuing
Directors) ordering the redemption of the Rights pursuant to Section 23.1 (or at a later time as the Board of Directors may establish
for the effectiveness of the redemption) (the “Redemption Date”), evidence of which shall have been filed with
the Rights Agent, and without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the
only right thereafter of the holders of Rights shall be to receive the Redemption Price for each Right so held. Promptly after
the action of the Board ordering the redemption of the Rights, the Company shall give notice of redemption to the Rights Agent
and the holders of the then outstanding Rights by mailing such notice to all such holders at each holder’s last address as
it appears upon the registry books of the Rights Agent or, prior to the Distribution Date, the registry books for the Class A Common
Stock; provided, however, that failure to give, or any defect in, any notice shall not affect the validity of the redemption.
Any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each
such notice of redemption will state the method by which the payment of the Redemption Price will be made.

 

23.3         
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 23.1 hereof, in the event that a majority of the Board of Directors does not consist
of Continuing Directors (the first occurrence of such an event referred to herein as a “Section 23.1 Event”),
then for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days following the Section 23.1 Event, the Rights shall not be redeemed unless
there are Continuing Directors and a majority of the Continuing Directors concur with the Board’s decision to redeem the
Rights.

 

		24.	Exchange.

 

24.1         
The Company may, at its option, upon authorization of the Board of Directors, at any time after a Person becomes an Acquiring
Person, exchange all or part of the then outstanding and exercisable Rights (excluding Rights that have become null and void pursuant
to Section 7.6) for shares of Class A Common Stock at an exchange ratio of one share of Class A Common Stock per one one-thousandth
of a Preferred Share represented by a Right, appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction
occurring after the date hereof (the “Exchange Ratio”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent prohibited
by Maryland law, the Board of Directors shall not be empowered to authorize an exchange at any time after an Acquiring Person becomes
the Beneficial Owner of a majority of the shares of Class A Common Stock then outstanding. From and after the occurrence of a Section
13 Event, any Rights that theretofore have not been exchanged pursuant to this Section 24 shall thereafter be exercisable only
in accordance with Section 13 and may not be exchanged pursuant to this Section 24. The Board of Directors may provide that the
exchange of the Rights by the Company may be made effective at a time, on any basis and with any terms and conditions as the Board
of Directors in its sole discretion may establish.

 

24.2         
Immediately upon effectiveness of the action of the Board of Directors authorizing the exchange of any Rights pursuant to
Section 24.1, and without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise the Rights so exchanged shall terminate
and the only right thereafter of a holder shall be to receive a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the number of
the Rights held by the holder which are exchanged multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. The Company shall promptly give public notice
of any exchange (as well as prompt written notice thereof to the Rights Agent); provided, however, that the failure
to give, or any defect in, an exchange notice shall not affect the validity of the exchange. The Company promptly shall mail a
notice of any exchange to all of the holders of the Rights so exchanged at their last addresses as they appear upon the registry
books of the Rights Agent. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder
receives the notice. Each notice of exchange will state the method by which the exchange of the shares of Class A Common Stock
for Rights will be effected and, in the event of any partial exchange, the number of Rights which will be exchanged. Any partial
exchange shall be effected pro rata based on the number of Rights (other than Rights which have become null and void pursuant
to the provisions of Section 7.6) held by each holder of Rights.

 

    	 	34	 

     

    

 

24.3         
In any exchange pursuant to this Section 24, the Board of Directors may provide, at its option, that the Company may substitute
Preferred Shares or Common Stock Equivalents for shares of Class A Common Stock exchangeable for Rights, at the initial rate of
one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share (or an appropriate number of Common Stock Equivalents) for each share of Class A Common
Stock, as appropriately adjusted to reflect adjustments in the voting rights of the Preferred Shares pursuant to the terms thereof,
so that the fraction of a Preferred Share delivered in lieu of each share of Class A Common Stock shall have the same voting rights
as one share of Class A Common Stock.

 

24.4         
If there shall not be sufficient shares of Class A Common Stock, Preferred Stock or Common Stock Equivalents authorized
but unissued to permit any exchange of Rights as contemplated in accordance with this Section 24, the Company shall take all action
as may be necessary to authorize additional shares of Class A Common Stock, Preferred Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for issuance
upon exchange of the Rights.

 

24.5         
The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Class A Common Stock or to distribute certificates which
represent fractional shares of Class A Common Stock. In lieu of issuing fractional shares of Class A Common Stock, the Company
may instead pay to the registered holders of the Rights with regard to which fractional shares of Class A Common Stock would otherwise
be issuable an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current per share market value of a whole share of Class A Common
Stock. For the purposes of this Section 24.5, the current per share market value of a whole share of Class A Common Stock shall
be the closing price of a share of Class A Common Stock (as determined pursuant to the second sentence of Section 11.4.1) for the
Trading Day immediately prior to the date of exchange pursuant to this Section 24.

 

24.6         
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 24 to the contrary, the exchange of the Rights may be made effective at a time,
on any basis and with any terms and conditions as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion may establish. Without limiting
the preceding sentence, the Board of Directors may (i) in lieu of issuing shares of Class A Common Stock or any other securities
contemplated by this Section 24 to the Persons entitled thereto in connection with the exchange (the Persons, the “Exchange
Recipients,” and the shares of Class A Common Stock and other securities, together with any dividends or distributions
made on the shares of Class A Common Stock or other securities, the “Exchange Property”) issue, transfer or
deposit the Exchange Property to or into a trust or other entity that may hold the Exchange Property for the benefit of the Exchange
Recipients (provided that the trust or other entity may not be controlled by the Company or any of its Affiliates or Associates
and provided further that the trustee or similar fiduciary of the trust or other entity will attempt to distribute the Exchange
Property to the Exchange Recipients as promptly as practicable), (ii) permit the trust or other entity to exercise all of the rights
that a stockholder of record would possess with respect to any shares deposited in the trust or other entity and (iii) impose any
procedures necessary to verify that the Exchange Recipients are not Acquiring Persons or Affiliates or Associates of Acquiring
Persons as of any time periods established by the Board of Directors or the trust or other entity. In the event the Board of Directors
determines to issue, transfer or deposit the Exchange Property to or into a trust or other entity, all stockholders entitled to
receive shares pursuant to the exchange shall be entitled to receive such shares (and any dividends or other distributions made
thereon after the date on which such shares are deposited in the trust or other entity) only from the trust or other entity and
solely upon compliance with the relevant terms and provisions of any agreement between the Company and the trust or other entity.
In the event the Board of Directors determines, before the Distribution Date, to effect an exchange, the Board of Directors may
delay the occurrence of the Distribution Date to a time as the Board of Directors deems advisable; provided that the Distribution
Date must occur no later than twenty (20) days after the Stock Acquisition Date.

25.1         
If the Company shall after the Distribution Date propose (i) to pay any dividend payable in stock of any class to the holders
of its Preferred Shares or to make any other distribution to the holders of its Preferred Shares (other than a regular quarterly
cash dividend); (ii) to offer to the holders of its Preferred Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or to purchase any additional
Preferred Shares or shares of stock of any class or any other securities, rights or options; (iii) to effect any reclassification
of its Preferred Shares (other than a reclassification involving only the subdivision of outstanding Preferred Shares); (iv) to
effect any consolidation or merger into or with any other Person, or to effect any sale or other transfer (or to permit one or
more of its Subsidiaries to effect any sale or other transfer), in one or more transactions, of 50% or more of the assets or Earning
Power of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to any other Person; (v) to effect the liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company; or (vi) to declare or pay any dividend on the shares of Class A Common Stock payable in shares of Class

or otherwise than by payment of dividends in shares of Class A Common Stock), then, in each case, the Company shall give to the
Rights Agent and to each holder of a Right, in accordance with Section 26, a notice of the proposed action, which shall specify
the record date for the purposes of a stock dividend, or distribution of rights or warrants, or the date on which a reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up is to take place and the date of participation therein
by the holders of the Class A Common Stock or Preferred Stock or both, if any date is to be fixed, and the notice shall be so given,
in the case of any action covered by clause (i) or (ii) above, at least ten (10) days prior to the record date for determining
holders of the Preferred Shares and, in the case of any action covered by clauses (iii) to (vi) above, at least ten (10) days prior
to the date of the taking of the proposed action or the date of participation therein by the holders of the Class A Common Stock
or Preferred Stock or both, whichever shall be the earlier. The failure to give notice required by this Section 25.1 or any defect
therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the action taken by the Company or the vote upon any such action.

 

    	 	36	 

     

    

 

25.2         
In case any Section 11.1.2 Event shall occur, then (i) the Company shall as soon as practicable thereafter give to each
holder of a Rights Certificate, in accordance with Section 26 hereof, a notice of the occurrence of the event, which notice shall
specify the event and the consequences of the event to holders of Rights under Section 11.1.2 hereof and (ii) all references in
the preceding paragraph to Preferred Shares shall be deemed thereafter to refer to shares of Class A Common Stock or, if applicable,
other securities.

______________________

 

(Pursuant to Sections 2-105, 2-201(c) and
2-208 of

the Maryland General Corporation Law)

______________________

 

American Finance Trust,
Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies to the State Department of Assessments and Taxation
of Maryland that:

 

FIRST: Under a power
contained in Section 5.1 of the charter of the Company (the “Charter”), the Board of Directors of the Company
(the “Board”), by duly adopted resolutions, reclassified and designated one hundred and twenty thousand (120,000)
authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company as shares of Series B Preferred Stock,
par value $0.01 per share, with the following preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations
as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption, which, upon any restatement of
the Charter, shall become part of Article V of the Charter, with any necessary or appropriate renumbering or relettering of the
sections or subsections hereof. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them
in the Charter.

 

Section 1. Number
of Shares and Designation. A series of preferred stock of the Company designated as “Series B Preferred Stock”
is hereby established, and the number shares constituting such series shall be one hundred and twenty thousand (120,000). Such
number of shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors and by the filing of Articles Supplementary
in accordance with the Maryland General Corporation Law and the acceptance for record thereof by the State Department of Assessments
and Taxation of Maryland; provided, that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to a
number less than the number of shares then outstanding plus the number of shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding
options, rights or warrants or upon the conversion of any outstanding securities issued by the Company convertible into Series
B Preferred Stock.

 

    	 	A-1	 

     

    

 

Section 2. Dividends and other Distributions.

 

(A) Subject to the
rights of the holders of any shares of any class or series of preferred stock (or any other stock of the Company) ranking senior
to or on a parity with the shares of Series B Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred
Stock, in preference to the holders of shares of any class or series of stock of the Company ranking junior to the Series B Preferred
Stock in respect thereof, shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if authorized by the Board of Directors and declared by the
Company out of funds legally available therefor, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the fifteenth day of the month following
the month in which quarter ended January, April, July and October in each year (each such date a “Quarterly Dividend Payment
Date”), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a
share of Series B Preferred Stock, in an amount (if any) per share (rounded to the nearest cent), subject to the provision for
adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1,000 multiplied by the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and 1,000
multiplied by the aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions, other than a dividend
payable in shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of the Company
or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Class A
Common Stock since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment
Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series B Preferred Stock. In the event the Company shall
at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Class A Common Stock payable in shares of Class A Common Stock, or effect a subdivision
or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment
of a dividend in shares of Class A Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Class A Common Stock, then in each
such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under
the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares
of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Class
A Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

 

(B) The Company
shall declare a dividend or other distribution on the Series B Preferred Stock as provided in paragraph (A) of this Section 2 immediately
after it declares a dividend or other distribution on the Class A Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Class
A Common Stock).

 

(C) Dividends due
pursuant to paragraph (A) of this Section 2 shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding shares of Series B Preferred
Stock from the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, unless the date of issue of such
shares is prior to the record date for the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares shall
begin to accrue from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or is a
date after the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly
dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in either of which events such dividends shall begin to accrue and be
cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid dividends shall not bear interest. Dividends paid on the
shares of Series B Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on
such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding. The Board of Directors
may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend
or distribution declared thereon, which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof.

 

    	 	A-2	 

     

    

 

(D) In determining whether
a dividend or other distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption or other acquisition
of shares or otherwise, is permitted under the Maryland General Corporation Law, amounts that would be needed, if the Company were
to be dissolved at the time of the dividend or other distribution, to satisfy the preferential right upon dissolution of holders
of the Series B Preferred Stock shall not be added to the Company’s total liabilities.

 

Section 3. Voting
Rights. The holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:

 

(A) Subject to the
provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to 1,000
votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock. In the event the Company shall at any
time declare or pay any dividend on the Class A Common Stock payable in shares of Class A Common Stock, or effect a subdivision
or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment
of a dividend in shares of Class A Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Class A Common Stock, then in each
such case the number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior
to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such number by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Class
A Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Class A Common
Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

 

(B) Except as otherwise
provided herein, in the terms of any other class or series of preferred stock or any similar stock or by law, the holders of shares
of Series B Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and any other capital stock of the Company having
general voting rights shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company.

 

(C) Except as set
forth herein, or as otherwise required by law, holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their
consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Class A Common Stock as set forth
herein) for taking any corporate action.

 

Section 4. Certain
Restrictions.

 

(A) Whenever one
or more quarterly dividends or other dividends or distributions payable on the Series B Preferred Stock as provided in Section
2 are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions, whether or not authorized or declared,
on shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been paid in full, the Company shall not:

 

(i) declare or
pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock;

 

    	 	A-3	 

     

    

 

(ii) declare or
pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up) with the Series B Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the Series B Preferred Stock and
all such parity stock on which dividends are payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all
such shares are then entitled; or

 

(iii) except pursuant
to provisions of the Charter or Bylaws of the Company providing for limitations or restrictions on ownership of securities of the
Company which are, expressly or by implication, included to protect the status of the Corporation as a real estate investment trust
under the Internal Revenue Code, redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Company ranking
junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock, provided that the
Company may at any time redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such junior stock in exchange for shares of any stock
of the Company ranking junior (as to dividends and upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock.

 

(B) The Company
shall not permit any subsidiary of the Company to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Company
unless the Company could, under paragraph (A) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in
such manner.

 

Section 5. Reacquired
Shares. All shares of Series B Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company in any manner whatsoever shall
constitute authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock, without designation as to class or series, and may thereafter be
classified, reclassified or issued as any series or class of preferred stock.

 

Section 6. Liquidation,
Dissolution or Winding Up.

 

(A) Upon any liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company, voluntary or otherwise, no distribution shall be made to the holders of shares of stock
ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock unless,
prior thereto, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have received an amount per share (the “Series
B Liquidation Preference”), subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1,000 multiplied
by the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders of shares of Class A Common Stock plus an amount equal to any accrued
and unpaid dividends. In the event the Company shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Class A Common Stock payable
in shares of Class A Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Class A
Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Class A Common Stock) into a greater
or lesser number of shares of Class A Common Stock, then in each such case the aggregate amount to which holders of shares of Series
B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such
amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after such
event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such
event.

 

(B) If there are
not sufficient assets available to permit payment in full of the Series B Liquidation Preference and the liquidation preferences
of all other classes and series of stock of the Company, if any, that rank on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock in respect
thereof, then the assets available for such distribution shall be distributed ratably to the holders of the Series B Preferred
Stock and the holders of such parity shares in proportion to their respective liquidation preferences.

 

    	 	A-4	 

     

    

 

(C) Neither the
merger or consolidation of the Company into or with another entity nor the merger or consolidation of any other entity into or
with the Company shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company within the meaning of this Section
6.

 

Section 7. Consolidation,
Merger, Etc. If the Company shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares
of Class A Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash or any other property, then in any such
case each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed into an amount per share,
subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1,000 multiplied by the aggregate amount of stock, securities,
cash or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Class A Common Stock is
changed or exchanged. In the event the Company shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Class A Common Stock payable
in shares of Class A Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Class A
Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Class A Common Stock) into a greater
or lesser number of shares of Class A Common Stock, then in each such case the amount set forth in the preceding sentence with
respect to the exchange or change of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator
of which is the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

 

Section 8. Amendment.
At any time that any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Charter shall not be amended in any manner, including
in a merger, consolidation or otherwise, which would materially and adversely alter, change or repeal the preferences, conversion
and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications or terms and
conditions of redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of
the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single class.

 

Section 9. Rank.
The Series B Preferred Stock shall rank, with respect to the payment of dividends and upon liquidation, dissolution and winding
up, junior to the Company’s preferred stock designated as 7.50% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock,
par value $0.01 per share, and all other classes or series of preferred stock, unless the terms of any such other class or series
shall provide otherwise, and shall rank senior to the Class A Common Stock as to such matters.

 

Section 10. Ownership
Restrictions. The Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject to the restrictions and limitations set forth in Section 5.7 of
the Charter.

 

Section 11. Permissible
Distributions. In determining whether a distribution (other than upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up), whether by dividend,
or upon redemption or other acquisition of shares or otherwise, is permitted under Maryland law, amounts that would be needed,
if the Company were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders
of shares of any class or series of stock whose preferential rights upon dissolution are superior or prior to those receiving the
distribution shall not be added to the Company’s total liabilities.

 

    	 	A-5	 

     

    

 

SECOND: The Series
B Preferred Stock has been classified and designated by the Board under the authority contained in the Charter.

 

THIRD: These Articles
Supplementary have been approved by the Board in the manner and by the vote required by law.

 

FOURTH: The undersigned

Right Certificate

 

American Finance Trust, Inc.,

 

a Maryland corporation

 

This certifies that                 ,
or registered assigns, is the registered owner of the number of Rights set forth above, each of which entitles the owner thereof,
subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Rights Agreement dated as of April 13, 2020, as may be amended from time
to time (the “Rights Agreement”), between American Finance Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”),
and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., a federally chartered trust company (and any successor rights agent thereto, the “Rights
Agent”), to purchase from the Company at any time after the Distribution Date (as such term is defined in the Rights
Agreement) and prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on April 12, 2021 at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such purposes,
or at the office of its successor as Rights Agent, one one-thousandth of a fully paid non-assessable share of Series B Preferred
Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), of the Company, at a purchase price of $35.00
per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share (the “Purchase Price”), upon presentation and surrender of this
Right Certificate with the Form of Election to Purchase duly executed. The number of Rights represented by this Right Certificate
(and the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share which may be purchased upon exercise hereof) set forth above, and the
Purchase Price set forth above, are the number and Purchase Price as of April 13, 2020, based on the Preferred Shares as constituted
at such date. As provided in the Rights Agreement, the Purchase Price and the number of one one-thousandths of a Preferred Share
(or other securities or property) which may be purchased upon the exercise of the Rights represented by this Right Certificate
are subject to modification and adjustment upon the happening of certain events.

 

From and after the occurrence
of a Section 11.1.2 Event (as defined in the Rights Agreement), if the Rights evidenced by this Rights Certificate are beneficially
owned by (i) an Acquiring Person or an Associate or Affiliate of an Acquiring Person (as such terms are defined in the Rights Agreement),
(ii) a transferee of an Acquiring Person (or of any Associate or Affiliate thereof) who becomes a transferee after the Acquiring
Person became such or (iii) under certain circumstances specified in the Rights Agreement, a transferee of an Acquiring Person
(or of any Associate or Affiliate thereof) who becomes a transferee prior to or concurrently with the Acquiring Person’s
becoming such, these Rights shall become null and void and no holder hereof shall have any right with respect to such Rights from
and after the occurrence of the Section 11.1.2 Event.

This Right Certificate
is subject to all of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Rights Agreement, which terms, provisions and conditions are incorporated
herein by this reference and made a part hereof, and to which Rights Agreement reference is made for a full description of the
rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities hereunder of the Rights Agent, the Company and the holders of
the Right Certificates. Copies of the Rights Agreement are on file at the principal executive offices of the Company and the offices
of the Rights Agent. The Company will mail to the holder(s) of this Rights Certificate a copy of the Rights Agreement without charge
after receipt of a written request therefor.

 

This Right Certificate,
with or without other Right Certificates, upon surrender at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose, may be
exchanged for another Right Certificate or Right Certificates of like tenor and date representing Rights entitling the holder to
purchase a like aggregate number of Preferred Shares as the Rights represented by the Right Certificate or Right Certificates surrendered
shall have entitled such holder to purchase. If this Right Certificate shall be exercised in part, the holder shall be entitled
to receive upon surrender hereof another Right Certificate or Right Certificates for the number of whole Rights not exercised.

 

Subject to the provisions
of the Rights Agreement, at the Company’s option, the Rights represented by this Certificate may be redeemed or exchanged
in accordance with Section 23 and Section 24, respectively, of the Rights Agreement.

 

No fractional Preferred
Shares will be issued upon the exercise of any Right or Rights represented hereby (other than fractions which are integral multiples
of one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share, which may, at the election of the Company, be represented by depositary receipts),
but in lieu thereof a cash payment will be made, as provided in the Rights Agreement.

 

No holder of this Right
Certificate, as such, shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the Preferred Shares,
shares of Class A Common Stock or of any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the exercise or exchange
hereof, nor shall anything contained in the Rights Agreement or herein be construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such,
any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted
to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, or to receive notice of meetings
or other actions affecting stockholders (except as provided in the Rights Agreement), or to receive dividends or subscription rights,
or otherwise, until the Right or Rights represented by this Right Certificate shall have been exercised or exchanged as provided

SUMMARY OF RIGHTS TO PURCHASE

 

PREFERRED SHARES

 

On April 13, 2020,
American Finance Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), declared a dividend of one preferred share
purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the
 “Class A Common Stock”), of the Company outstanding on April 23, 2020 (the “Record Date”)
to the holders of record of Class A Common Stock on that date. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company
one one-thousandth of a share of Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Shares”),
of the Company, at a price of $35.00 per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share represented by a Right (the “Purchase
Price”), subject to adjustment. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement (the “Rights
Agreement”), dated as of April 13, 2020, as the same may be amended from time to time, between the Company and Computershare
Trust Company, N.A., a federally chartered trust company, as Rights Agent.

 

DETACHMENT AND TRANSFER OF RIGHTS

 

Until the earlier of
(i) the close of business on the 10th business day following a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated
persons has become an “Acquiring Person” (as defined in the Rights Agreement) or when a majority of the Board
of Directors becomes aware of the existence of an Acquiring Person (the earlier of such dates, the “Stock Acquisition
Date”) (or, in the event the Board of Directors determines on or before the 10th business day to effect an
exchange in accordance with Section 24 of the Rights Agreement and determines that a later date not more than 20 days after the
Stock Acquisition Date is advisable, then the later date determined by the Board of Directors) or (ii) the close of business on
the 10th business day (or a later date as may be determined by action of the Board of Directors prior to any person becoming an
Acquiring Person) following the commencement of, or the first public announcement of an intention to commence, a tender or exchange
offer (which intention to commence remains in effect for five business days after announcement), the consummation of which would
result in the beneficial ownership by a person or group of 4.9% or more of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock (the
earlier of these dates, the “Distribution Date,” provided, however, that the Distribution Date will in
no event be prior to the Record Date), the Rights will be represented, with respect to any of the Class A Common Stock certificates
outstanding as of the Record Date, by the Class A Common Stock certificate with a copy of this Summary of Rights attached thereto.
In general, an “Acquiring Person” is a person, the affiliates or associates of the person, or a group, that
has acquired beneficial ownership of 4.9% or more of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain exceptions,
including, among other things, that certain “Exempt Persons” and “Passive Investors,” each
as defined in the Rights Agreement, may have greater beneficial ownership without becoming an “Acquiring Person.”
In addition, certain inadvertent acquisitions will not trigger the occurrence of the Distribution Date.

 

    	 	C-1	 

     

    

 

Securities “Beneficial
Owned” by a person, together with its affiliates and associates, include (i) any securities beneficially owned, directly
or indirectly, within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (ii) except under limited circumstances,
securities with respect to which the person, or any of its affiliates or associates, has the right or obligation to acquire or
the right to vote pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, (iii) any securities which are Beneficially Owned, directly
or indirectly, by any other person (or any affiliate or associate of the other person) with which the person, or any of its affiliates
or associates, is Acting in Concert (as defined in the Rights Agreement) with or has any agreement, arrangement or understanding,
whether or not in writing, for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (subject to certain limited exceptions) or disposing of
any voting securities of the Company, and (iv) any securities which are the subject of, or the reference securities for, or that
underlie, any derivative securities (as defined under Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act) that increase in value as the value of
the underlying equity increases.

 

The Rights Agreement
provides that, until the Distribution Date (or earlier expiration of the Rights), the Rights will be transferred with and only
with the shares of Class A Common Stock. Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights), any new
Class A Common Stock certificates issued after the Record Date will contain a notation incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference.
Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights), the surrender for transfer of any shares of Class
A Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date, even without any notation or a copy of this Summary of Rights being attached
thereto, will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Class A Common Stock. As soon as practicable following
the Distribution Date, unless the Company chooses to use book entry in lieu of physical certificates, separate certificates representing
the Rights (“Right Certificates”) will be mailed to holders of record of the shares of Class A Common Stock
as of the close of business on the Distribution Date, and the separate Right Certificates alone will represent the Rights. If the
Company uses book entry in lieu of physical certificates, “Rights Certificates” will be deemed to mean the uncertificated
book entry representing the related Rights.

 

On the Distribution
Date, proper provision will be made by the Company in order to provide each holder (other than the Company) of partnership units
designated as “OP Units” of American Finance Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”),
with the number of Rights, represented by Right Certificates, as would be issued to the applicable holder as if the Company had
redeemed all of the holder’s partnership units for shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of
the agreement of limited partnership of the Partnership immediately prior to the Distribution Date.

 

EXERCISABILITY OF RIGHTS

 

The Rights are not
exercisable until the Distribution Date. The Rights will expire on April 12, 2021, unless the Rights are previously redeemed, exchanged
or terminated.

 

    	 	C-2	 

     

    

 

The Purchase Price
payable, and the number of Preferred Shares or other securities or property issuable, upon exercise of the Rights is subject to
adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution (i) in the event the Company declares a dividend on the Preferred Shares payable
in Preferred Shares or effects a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the Preferred Shares; (ii) in the event the Board
of Directors fixes a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all holders of the Preferred Shares entitling
them (for a period expiring within forty-five (45) calendar days after the record date) to subscribe for or purchase Preferred
Shares, or shares having the same rights, privileges and preferences as the Preferred Shares (“Equivalent Preferred Shares”),
at a price, or securities convertible into Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares with a conversion price, less than the
then current market price of the Preferred Shares on the record date; or (iii) in the event the Board of Directors fixes a record
date for the making of a distribution to all holders of the Preferred Shares of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than
a regular quarterly cash dividends or dividends payable in Preferred Shares) or subscription rights or warrants (other than those
referred to above).

 

The number of outstanding
Rights and the number of Preferred Shares issuable upon exercise of each Right are also subject to adjustment in the event of a
stock split of Class A Common Stock or a stock dividend on the Class A Common Stock payable in shares of Class A Common Stock or
subdivisions, consolidations or combinations of the shares of Class A Common Stock occurring, in any such case, prior to the Distribution
Date.

 

TERMS OF PREFERRED SHARES

 

Preferred Shares issuable
upon exercise of the Rights will not be redeemable. Each Preferred Share will be entitled, when, as and if authorized and declared,
to a quarterly dividend payment of 1,000 multiplied by the dividend declared per share of Class A Common Stock. In the event of
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of the Preferred Shares will be entitled to a payment per share,
subject to the provision for adjustment, equal to 1,000 multiplied by the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders
of shares of Class A Common Stock plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends. Each Preferred Share will have 1,000
votes, subject to the provision for adjustment, voting together with the shares of Class A Common Stock. In the event of any merger,
consolidation or other transaction in which shares of Class A Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities,
cash or any other property, then in any such case each Preferred Share will at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed
into an amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment, equal to 1,000 multiplied by the aggregate amount of stock,
securities, cash or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Class A Common
Stock is changed or exchanged. These rights are protected by customary antidilution provisions.

 

Because of the nature
of the dividend, liquidation and voting rights of the Preferred Shares, the value of the one one-thousandth interest in a Preferred
Share issuable upon exercise of each Right should approximate the value of one share of Class A Common Stock.

 

TRIGGER OF SECTION 11.1.2 AND SECTION 13 EVENTS

 

In the event that any
a person becomes an Acquiring Person, unless the event causing the 4.9% threshold to be crossed is a Permitted Offer (as defined
in the Rights Agreement) or a Section 13 Event described below, and the Board of Directors authorizes the Company to issue Rights
Certificates under Section 3.1 of the Rights Agreement (a “Section 11.1.2 Event”), then, each holder of a Right
(except for Rights which have become null and void pursuant to Section 7.6 of the Rights Agreement) shall thereafter have the right
to receive, upon exercise thereof, a number of shares of Class A Common Stock (or, in certain circumstances, cash, property or
other securities of the Company) equal to the exercise price of the Right divided by fifty percent (50%) of the Current Per Share
Market Price (as defined in the Rights Agreement) of the shares of Class A Common Stock at the date of the first occurrence of
a Section 11.1.2 Event. However, these Rights will not be exercisable until the Rights are no longer redeemable by the Company
and are also subject to the Company’s exchange right described below. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, following the
occurrence of a Section 11.1.2 Event, all Rights that are, or (under certain circumstances specified in the Rights Agreement) were,
Beneficially Owned by any Acquiring Person (or by certain related parties) will be null and void.

 

    	 	C-3	 

     

    

 

For example, at an
exercise price of $35.00 per Right, each Right not owned by an Acquiring Person (or by certain related parties) following a Section
11.1.2 Event would entitle its holder to purchase for $35.00 a number of shares of Class A Common Stock (or other consideration,
as noted above) equal to $35.00 divided by one-half of the Current Per Share Market Price (as defined in the Rights Agreement)
of the shares of Class A Common Stock. Assuming that the Current Per Share Market Price of Class A Common Stock is $10.00 at the
applicable time, the holder of each valid Right would be entitled to purchase 7 shares of Class A Common Stock, having a market
value of 7 x $10.00, or $70.00, for $35.00.

 

If, at any time after
the Stock Acquisition Date, (i) the Company consolidates with, or merges with and into, any other person; (ii) any person consolidates
with the Company, or merges with and into the Company, and the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation of the transaction
and, in connection with the transaction, all or part of the shares of Class A Common Stock are or will be changed into or exchanged
for stock or other securities of any other person (or the Company) or cash or any other property; or (iii) the Company sells or
otherwise transfers (or one or more of its subsidiaries sell or otherwise transfer), in one or more transactions, assets or Earning
Power aggregating 50% or more of the assets or Earning Power (as defined in the Rights Agreement) of the Company and its subsidiaries
(taken as a whole) to any other person other than the Company or one or more of its wholly owned subsidiaries (each of the foregoing
events, a “Section 13 Event”), then upon the first occurrence of any Section 13 Events, proper provision will
be made so that each holder of a Right (except for Rights which have become null and void pursuant to Section 7.6 of the Rights
Agreement) will thereafter have the right to receive, upon the exercise of a Right, the number of shares of common stock of the
acquiring company (including the Company as successor thereto or as the surviving corporation) which equals the exercise price
of the Right divided by fifty percent (50%) of the Current Per Share Market Price (as defined in the Rights Agreement) of the shares
of common stock of the acquiring company at the date of the consummation of the Section 13 Event.

 

EXCHANGE AND REDEMPTION OF RIGHTS

 

At any time after any
person becomes an Acquiring Person, the Board of Directors may authorize the Company to exchange the Rights (except for Rights
which have become null and void pursuant to Section 7.6 of the Rights Agreement), in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of
one Class A Common Stock per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share represented by a Right, subject to adjustment. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, to the extent prohibited by Maryland law, the Board of Directors shall not be empowered to authorize an exchange
at any time after an Acquiring Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of a majority of the shares of Class A Common Stock then outstanding.

 

    	 	C-4	 

     

    

 

With certain exceptions,
no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be required unless an adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1%
in such Purchase Price. The Company is not required to issue fractional shares of its stock upon the exercise of Rights (other
than fractions which are integral multiples of one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share or an Equivalent Preferred Share, as applicable,
which may, at the election of the Company, be represented by depositary receipts), and in lieu thereof, an adjustment in cash will
be made based on the market price of the applicable stock on the last trading day prior to the date of exercise or exchange.

 

At any time prior to
the earlier of (i) the close of business on the tenth (10th) business day following the Stock Acquisition Date (or, if the Stock
Acquisition Date shall have occurred prior to the Record Date, the Close of Business on the tenth (10th) day following the Record
Date), or (ii) the Final Expiration Date, the Company may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.0001 per
Right, subject to adjustment (payable in cash, shares of Class A Common Stock or other consideration deemed appropriate by the
Board of Directors). In the event that Continuing Directors no longer comprise a majority of the Board (a “Section 23.1
Event”), then for a period of 180 days following the first occurrence of a Section 23.1 Event, the Rights cannot be redeemed
unless there are Continuing Directors and a majority of the Continuing Directors concur with the Board of Directors’ decision
to redeem the Rights. Immediately upon the action of the Company’s Board of Directors ordering redemption of the Rights (with,
if required, the concurrence of a majority of the Continuing Directors), or at a later time as the Board of Directors may establish
for the effectiveness of the redemption, the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive
the $0.0001 per Right redemption price. The term “Continuing Directors” means any member of the Board of Directors
of the Company who was a member of the Board of Directors immediately prior to the date of the Rights Agreement, and any person
who is subsequently elected to the Board of Directors if the person is recommended or approved by a majority of the Continuing
Directors, but shall not include an Acquiring Person, or an affiliate or associate of an Acquiring Person, or any representative
or nominee of the foregoing entities.

 

Until a Right is exercised
or exchanged, the holder thereof, as such, will have no rights as a holder of the Class A Common Stock for which the Right is exercisable
or exchangeable, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends.

 

AMENDMENT OF RIGHTS

 

The terms of the Rights
Agreement may be amended by the Board of Directors without the consent of the holders of the Rights provided that, from and after
the time any person becomes and Acquiring Person, the Rights Agreement may not be amended or supplemented in any manner which would
adversely affect the interests of the holders of Rights (other than an Acquiring Person and its affiliates and associates). Without
limiting the foregoing, the Company may, at any time prior to any person becoming an Acquiring Person, amend the Rights Agreement
to lower the threshold at which a person or group becomes an Acquiring Person, but may not lower the threshold below 4.0% of the
outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. In addition, the Board may not cause a person or group to become an Acquiring Person
by lowering this threshold below the percentage interest that such person or group already owns.

WARRANTS
FOR PURCHASE OF COMMON SHARES

 

THIS IS TO CERTIFY
THAT, for value received, Innoviva, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Holder”), is the holder of [●]
common share purchase warrants (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant entitles the Holder to subscribe for and purchase
one fully paid and non-assessable Common Share of Entasis Therapeutics Holdings Inc. (the “Company”)
at any time or times prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on [●], 20252
(the “Time of Expiry”) at the price of $2.50 per Common Share (the “Exercise Price”), upon
the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant Certificate. The number of Common Shares which the Holder is entitled to acquire
upon exercise of a Warrant and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.
Whether or not expressly set forth herein, all amounts payable hereunder, including the Exercise Price if paid in cash, shall be
paid in United States Dollars.

 

The Warrants represented
by this Warrant Certificate may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part or parts (but not as to a fractional share), by
surrender of this Warrant Certificate (properly endorsed) with the Subscription Form appended hereto as Schedule A or any
other written notice in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company duly completed and executed by the Holder, at the office
of the Company in accordance with Section 12 hereof, together with the purchase price of such Common Shares as herein provided.

 

The Warrant Certificate
and such payment shall be deemed not to have been surrendered and made except upon personal delivery thereof or, if sent by post
or other means of transmission, upon actual receipt thereof by the Company at the office specified above.

 

Subject to
Section 4, the purchase price of Common Shares subscribed for hereunder shall be paid by certified check, money order,
bank draft payable to or to the order of the Company in lawful money of the United States of America or wire transfer of
immediately available funds, or any combination of the foregoing, in each case, in the discretion of the Holder.

 

 

 

1 Date
will be five years from original issuance.

 

2
Date will be five years from original issuance.

 

     

     

    

 

In the event of any
exercise of the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate in accordance with the terms hereof, (a) Common Shares purchased
hereunder shall be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s
or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system
(“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration
statement permitting the issuance of the Common Shares to or resale of the Common Shares by the Holder or (B) the Common Shares
are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (and the Holder has delivered
a legal opinion in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company to such effect), and otherwise (b) by physical delivery
of certificates for the Common Shares or confirmation of book entry issuance for the Common Shares (as may be directed by the Holder)
so purchased will be delivered to the Person(s) in whose name(s) the Common Shares so subscribed for are to be issued within two
Business Days (“Warrant Share Delivery Date”) of the exercise of the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate
(or if the share transfer books of the Company are properly closed, within two Business Days of the opening of said share transfer
books), such Person(s) shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Common Shares with
respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant, provided that payment of
the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received by the Company. Unless (i) this Warrant
Certificate has expired or (ii) all of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate have been exercised, a new Warrant Certificate
representing the unexercised balance of the Warrants will also be issued to the Holder within such time at the expense of the Company.

 

If the Company fails
for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Common Shares subject to an exercise notice by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the
Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Common Shares subject
to such exercise (based on the Current Market Price on the date of the applicable exercise notice), $5 per Trading Day (increasing
to $10 per Trading Day on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after
such Warrant Share Delivery Date (subject to receipt of the aggregate Exercise Price for the applicable exercise (other than in
the case of a cashless exercise)) until such Common Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to
maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the Depository Trust Company Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program so long
as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. The payments contemplated by this paragraph shall not limit a Holder’s
right to pursue equitable remedies including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with
respect to the such failure.

Section 2                
Adjustments.

 

Subject to Section 3,
the Exercise Price and the Exchange Basis will be subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided
as follows:

 

		(a)	Common Share Reorganization. If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior
to the Time of Expiry, the Company:

 

		(i)	issues Common Shares, or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, to all
or substantially all the holders of the Common Shares as a stock dividend or other distribution payable in Common Shares or securities
exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares;

 

		(ii)	subdivides, redivides or changes its then outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares;
or

 

		(iii)	reduces, combines or consolidates its then outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of shares,

 

(any of such events in these
clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) being called a “Common Share Reorganization”), then the Exchange Basis will be adjusted
effective immediately after the effective date of, or the record date at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for
the purpose of, the Common Share Reorganization, by multiplying the Exchange Basis in effect immediately prior to such effective
date or record date by a fraction:

 

		(A)	the numerator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving
effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible
into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding had such securities been exercised
or exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such effective date or record date, assuming in any case where such securities
are not then exercisable, convertible or exchangeable but subsequently become so, that they were exercisable, convertible or exchangeable
on the effective date or record date on the basis upon which they first become exercisable, convertible or exchangeable); and

 

		(B)	the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date
or record date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization.

 

The resulting product, adjusted
to the nearest 1/100th, will thereafter be the Exchange Basis until further adjusted as provided in this Section 2.

 

		(b)	Distributions. If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time
of Expiry, the Company will fix a record date for the distribution or dividend to all or substantially all the holders of the Common
Shares of any property or other assets (including any securities, rights, options, warrants or other securities of another person)
other than any dividend of cash, but including a distribution of evidences of indebtedness and provided that such distribution
or dividend does not constitute a
Common Share Reorganization (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a “Distribution”), the Exchange
Basis will be adjusted effective immediately after the record date for the Distribution by multiplying the Exchange Basis in effect
on such record date by a fraction:

 

    - 6 - 

     

    

 

		(i)	the numerator of which shall be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such
record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date; and

 

		(ii)	the denominator of which shall be:

 

		(A)	an amount equal to the product (x) of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date
and (y) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date, less

 

		(B)	the fair market value on such record date, as determined by action by the directors of the Company,
acting reasonably and in good faith, of the property or other assets distributed or dividended in the Distribution; provided that
no such adjustment will be made if the result of such adjustment would be to decrease the Exchange Basis in effect immediately
before such record date. The resulting product, adjusted to the nearest 1/100th, will thereafter be the Exchange Basis until further
adjusted as provided in this Section 2.

 

		(c)	Cash Distribution. If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time
of Expiry, the Company will fix a record date for a distribution or dividend of cash to all or substantially all the holders of
the Common Shares, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have
participated therein if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full immediately before the date of which a record is taken for
such distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined
for the participation in such distribution.

 

    - 7 - 

     

    

 

		(d)	Fundamental Transaction. At any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry,
upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from
and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall
refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations
of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation
of the Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise
of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the Common Shares (or other securities,
cash, assets or other property purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Fundamental
Transaction), such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase
or subscription rights), if any, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction
had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions
of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental
Transaction pursuant to which holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets (including cash) with
respect to or in exchange for Common Shares, the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will thereafter
have the right to receive upon exercise of this Warrant within 10 days after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction but,
in any event, prior to the Time of Expiry, in lieu of the Common Shares (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable
upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other
property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Holder would have been entitled to
receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had the Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental
Transaction.

 

		(e)	Any adjustment to the Exchange Basis pursuant to Section 2 including any readjustment, will
include a corresponding adjustment to the Exercise Price which will be calculated by multiplying the Exercise Price by a fraction:
(i) the numerator of which will be the Exchange Basis immediately prior to such adjustment, and (ii) the denominator of which will
be the Exchange Basis immediately following the adjustment.

 

		(f)	In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in this Section
2 (but only if the action of the type described in this Section 2 would result in an adjustment in the Exchange Basis or Exercise
Price or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant Certificate), the Company
shall give notice to the Holder at least 10 days prior to the record date in respect of such action (or the date of such action
in the event that there is no record date), in the manner set forth in Section 12, which notice shall specify the record date,
if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also
set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exchange Basis or Exercise
Price or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant Certificate.

 

    - 8 - 

     

    

 

		(g)	If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry and
                                                               provided that this Warrant has not been exercised, the Company shall make a distribution pursuant to Section 2(b) of the
                                                               shares or other equity interests of a subsidiary of the Company (the “Spin-off Entity”) in a
                                                               “spin-off” or similar transaction, then the Company (a) shall issue to the Holder a new warrant to purchase, at
                                                               the Spin-off Entity Exercise Price (as defined below), the number of shares of common stock or other equity interest in the
                                                               Spin-off Entity (and any other consideration) that the Holder
would have owned had the Holder exercised or converted this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such spin-off and
(b) shall make provision therefor in the agreement, if any, relating to such spin-off. Such new warrant shall provide for rights
and obligations which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the rights and obligations provided for in this Warrant.
The provisions of this Section 2(g) (and any equivalent thereof in any such new warrant) shall apply to successive transactions.
For purposes of this Section 2(g), the “Spin-off Entity Exercise Price” shall mean the amount by which the Exercise
Price under this Warrant was decreased with respect to the relevant distribution pursuant to the terms of Section 2(b).

 

		(h)	In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above and without limitation of the terms
of any other agreement or any rights in respect of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock held by the Holder, if at any
time prior to the Time of Expiry the Company grants, issues or sells any options, convertible Securities or rights to purchase
stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares (the “Purchase
Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate
Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Common Shares Stock acquirable upon complete
exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase
Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Shares are to be determined for the grant,
issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

 

Section 3                
Rules Regarding Calculation of Adjustment of Exchange Basis.

 

For the purposes of
Section 2:

 

		(a)	The adjustments provided for in Section 2 will be cumulative and will be made successively
upon the occurrence of an event described therein, subject to this Section 3. For greater certainty, if any action would require
adjustment pursuant to more than one of the provisions described in Section 2 in a manner such that such adjustments are duplicative,
only one adjustment shall be made.

 

		(b)	No adjustment in the Exchange Basis will be required unless such adjustment would result in a change
to the then prevailing Exchange Basis of at least 1% or of at least 1/100th of a Common Share based on the prevailing Exchange
Basis, provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this Section 3(b) would otherwise have
been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

 

		(c)	No adjustment in the Exchange Basis will be made pursuant to Section 2 in respect of the issuance
from time to time of:

 

		(i)	Common Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants; or

 

    - 9 - 

     

    

 

		(ii)	Common Shares pursuant to any stock options, stock option plan, stock purchase plan, restricted
share units or restricted share unit plans, or other benefit plans in force at the date hereof for directors, officers, employees,
advisors or consultants of the Company in their capacity as such, as such option or plan is amended or superseded from time to
time in accordance with the requirements of any applicable Principal Securities Exchange and Applicable Securities Laws, and such
other benefit plans as may be adopted by the Company in compliance with the requirements of any applicable Principal Securities
Exchange and Applicable Securities Laws,

 

and, for the
avoidance of doubt, any such issue shall be deemed not to be a Common Share Reorganization, Distribution or Capital Reorganization.

 

		(d)	If a dispute at any time arises with respect to adjustments provided for in Section 2, the
resolution of such dispute will be conclusively determined, at the Company’s expense, by a firm of independent chartered
accountants as may be agreed by the Company and the Holder, each acting reasonably, and any such determination will be binding
upon the Company and the Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, the independent accountant referenced in this Section 3(e) may be,
but is not required to be, the same independent valuation expert contemplated by the definition of “Current Market Price”.

 

		(e)	If the Company sets a record date to determine the holders of the Common Shares for the purpose
of effecting a transaction described in Section 2 and thereafter and before effecting such transaction, legally abandons its
plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then no adjustment in the Exchange Basis by
reason of the setting of such record date shall be made.

 

		(f)	In the absence of a resolution of the directors fixing a record date for a Distribution, the Company
will be deemed to have fixed as the record date therefor the date on which the Distribution is affected.

 

		(g)	The Company will take any action which may be necessary or advisable in order for the Company to
have unissued and reserved in its authorized capital, and validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable, all the shares
or other securities of the Company which the Holder is entitled to receive on the exercise of the Warrants following any adjustment
set forth in Section 2.

 

		(h)	Any adjustments to the Exchange Basis and the Exercise Price pursuant to this Warrant Certificate
shall be subject to the prior approval, if required, of the Principal Securities Exchange.

Section 4                
Cashless Exercise of Warrants.

 

Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, and provided that the Warrants could otherwise be exercised in accordance with the
terms hereof, the Holder may elect to exercise the Warrants, in whole or in part, without payment of the aggregate Exercise
Price due on such exercise (a “Cashless Exercise”) in the manner set out in this Section 4. If the
Holder elects a Cashless Exercise, the Holder shall provide written notice of the election to the Company in the form of
cashless exercise notice appended hereto as Schedule B or any other written notice in a form reasonably satisfactory to the
Company (a “Cashless Exercise Notice”). Upon actual receipt by the Company of a Cashless Exercise Notice,
a certificate or confirmation of book entry issuance (as directed by the Holder) for the appropriate number of Common Shares
will be delivered to the Person(s) in whose name(s) the Common Shares so subscribed for are to be issued within two Business
Days of receipt of the Cashless Exercise Notice (or if the share transfer books of the Company are properly closed, within
two Business Days of the opening of said share transfer books), such Person(s) shall become a holder in respect of such
Common Shares with effect from the date of such exercise, and, unless this Warrant Certificate has expired, a new Warrant
Certificate representing the unexercised balance of the Warrants, if any, or all of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant
Certificate having been exercised will also be issued to the Holder within such time.

 

		(a)	The number of Common Shares to be issued to the Holder upon a Cashless Exercise shall be determined
as follows:

 

	X =	Y x (A-B)

      A

 

	Where:	X =	the number of Common Shares to be issued to the Holder upon exercising the Warrants; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that
if the foregoing calculation results in a negative number, then no Common Shares shall be issuable via a Cashless Exercise;

 

	 	Y =	the number of Warrants being exercised;

 

		A =	the Current Market Price per Common Share as of the applicable exercise date; and

 

		B =	the Exercise Price of the Warrants as of the applicable exercise date.

 

		(b)	If the number of Common Shares to be issued to the Holder exercising its Warrants on a cashless
basis in accordance with Section 4(a) above results in a fractional number, the Company will, in lieu of delivering the fractional
Common Share, satisfy the right to receive such fractional interest by payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal (computed
in the case of a fraction of a cent to the next lower cent) to the value of the right to acquire such fractional interest on the
basis of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the date of exercise.

 

		(c)	If Holder elects the method of exercise set forth in this Section 4, the “exchange”
of the Warrants is intended to qualify as a recapitalization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the U.S. Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and, unless otherwise required
by applicable Law, the parties hereto shall report consistently therewith for all tax purposes.

Section 5                
Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

 

The Company represents, warrants,
covenants and agrees that as of the date of this Warrant Certificate until the Time of Expiry:

 

		(a)	The Common Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants represented by this Warrant
Certificate will, upon issuance and payment therefor of the amount at which such Common Shares may at the time be purchased pursuant
to the provisions hereof (including pursuant to a Cashless Exercise), be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and in each
case, be free and clear of any Liens (other than Liens granted by the Holder);

 

		(b)	The Company will reserve and keep available at all times a sufficient number of unissued Common
Shares out of its authorized capital to provide for the exercise in full, at any time, of the rights represented by this Warrant
Certificate;

 

		(c)	The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a listing of its Common Shares
on the NASDAQ Global or other Principal Securities Exchange, provided that nothing contained in this clause (c) shall be construed
to limit (or to limit) the right of the Company to engage in a transaction that may result in it ceasing to be so listed;

 

		(d)	The Company has taken and will take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary and as are
within its power to ensure that all those Common Shares and Warrants issued or issuable pursuant to this Warrant Certificate may
be so issued without violation of Applicable Securities Law; and

 

		(e)	The Company will promptly advise the Holder of any defaults under this Warrant Certificate.

 

Section 6                
Exercise of Warrants.

 

		(1)	The Holder may exercise the right hereby conferred on the Holder to acquire Common Shares at any
time and from time to time prior to the Time of Expiry (subject to the provisions of this Section 6) by:

 

		(a)	duly completing and executing the subscription form (the “Subscription Form”)
attached as Schedule A to this Warrant Certificate (or any other written notice in a form satisfactory to the Company) and a Cashless
Exercise Notice, if applicable;

 

		(b)	surrendering this Warrant Certificate, together with, in the case of Warrants not being exercised
on a cashless basis in accordance with Section 4, the Holder’s certified check, bank draft, money order or wire transfer
(or any combination of the foregoing, in each case, in the discretion of the Holder) of immediately available funds in the full
amount of the total aggregate Exercise Price of each Warrant being exercised, together
with the duly completed and executed Subscription Form (or any other written notice in a form satisfactory to the Company) and
Cashless Exercise Notice, if applicable, to the Company in accordance with Section 12.

 

    - 12 - 

     

    

 

		(2)	The Holder may exercise Warrants in respect of a number of Common Shares which is less than the
total number of Common Shares into which the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may be exercised. In such a case, the
Holder shall be entitled to receive, at the Company’s expense, a new certificate in respect of the Warrants evidenced hereby
that are not so exercised. This Warrant Certificate shall be deemed to be surrendered only upon personal delivery thereof to, or
if sent by mail or other means of transmission, upon actual receipt thereof by, the Company in accordance with Section 12.

 

		(3)	One Warrant, together with the Exercise Price therefor, is required to purchase one Common Share,
subject to adjustment in accordance to the terms of this Warrant and to Cashless Exercise.

 

		(4)	The Warrants shall expire and all rights to purchase Common Shares hereunder shall cease and become
null and void at the Time of Expiry.

 

		(5)	Nothing herein contained or done pursuant hereto shall obligate the Holder to purchase or pay for,
or the Company to issue, any securities except those securities in respect of which the Holder shall have exercised its right to
purchase hereunder in the manner herein provided.

 

		(6)	Notwithstanding anything contained herein, including any adjustment provided for herein, the Company
will not be required to issue fractional Common Shares in satisfaction of its obligations hereunder. If any fractional interest
in a Common Share would be deliverable upon the exercise of a Warrant, the Company will, in lieu of delivering the fractional Common
Share, satisfy the right to receive such fractional interest by payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal (computed in the
case of a fraction of a cent to the next lower cent) to the value of the right to acquire such fractional interest on the basis
of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the date of exercise.

 

		(7)	Notwithstanding anything herein contained, no Common Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise
of any Warrant if the issuance of such Common Shares would, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, constitute a violation
of the Applicable Securities Laws of any applicable jurisdiction or the requirements of any Principal Securities Exchange, and
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any of the Warrants are exercised prior to expiry of any hold
period or other resale restriction placed thereon by such Laws or requirements, the certificates evidencing the Common Shares thereby
issued will bear such legend as is required under Applicable Securities Laws and that, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company,
is necessary in order to avoid a violation of any such Laws or requirements.

Section 8                
Transfer of Warrants.

 

		(1)	Other than as may be limited pursuant to Section 9, this Warrant Certificate and the Warrants represented
hereby may be transferred or assigned.

 

		(2)	This Warrant Certificate may only be transferred on the register of the Company by the Holder thereof
or its legal Representatives or attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and execution reasonably satisfactory
to the Company in accordance with applicable Laws. The Warrants and the Common Shares issuable hereunder are and may continue to
be subject to resale restrictions and hold periods, and the Holder should consult its legal advisor in respect of the same. Such
transfer will be effected upon surrender to the Company at the office of the Company in accordance with Section 12 hereof
of this Warrant Certificate for cancellation and the duly completed and executed transfer form (the “Transfer Form”)
attached hereto as Schedule C, and upon compliance, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company, with:

 

		(a)	the conditions herein;

 

		(b)	such reasonable requirements as the Company may require; and

 

		(c)	all Applicable Securities Laws.

 

		(3)	After such transfer, the term “Holder” shall mean and include any transferee or assignee
of the current Holder or any subsequent Holder. Upon compliance with Section 8(2), the Company shall execute and deliver a
new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in
such Transfer Form, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not
so assigned and this Warrant Certificate shall promptly be cancelled.

 

		(4)	For each Warrant transferred, the Company shall charge to the Holder requesting such transfer a
reasonable sum for each new Warrant certificate issued, which sum shall solely cover the Company’s out-of-pocket expenses
for such issuance, and payment of such charges and reimbursement of the Company for any and all stamp taxes or governmental or
other charges required to be paid shall be made by the Holder requesting the transfer of this Warrant Certificate as a condition
precedent thereto.

Section 10

Nothing in this Warrant
Certificate or in the holding of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate will be construed as conferring on the Holder any
right or interest whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company, including but not limited to, any right to vote at, to receive notice
of, or to attend any meeting of shareholders or any other proceeding of the Company or any right to receive any dividend or other
distributions, prior to the Holder’s exercise of Warrants in accordance with the terms hereof and the subscription for Common
Shares in connection therewith.

Section 13               Lost
Certificate.

 

Upon receipt
of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant Certificate and, if requested
by the Company, upon delivery of an indemnity satisfactory to the Company (or, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender of this
Warrant Certificate), the Company will issue to the Holder a replacement certificate of like denomination, tenor and date (containing
the same terms and conditions as this Warrant Certificate).

 

Section 14              
 General.

 

		(1)	The Company may deem and treat the Holder of the Warrants as the absolute owner thereof for all
purposes, except where the Company should have actual notice or knowledge to the contrary or except where the Company is required
to take notice by statute or by Order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Holder shall be entitled to the Warrants evidenced
hereby, free from all equities or rights of set off or counterclaim between the Company and the original or any intermediate holder
of such Warrants. The valid issue of Common Shares by the Company upon the exercise of Warrants by the Holder in accordance with
the terms and conditions contained herein shall discharge all responsibilities of the Company with respect to such Warrants and
the Company shall not be bound to inquire into the title of any such Holder except where the Company is required to take notice
by statute or by Order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

		(2)	If any one or more of the provisions or parts thereof contained in this Warrant Certificate should
be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions or parts thereof contained
herein shall be and shall be conclusively deemed to be, as to such jurisdiction, severable therefrom and:

 

		(a)	the validity, legality or enforceability of such remaining provisions or parts thereof shall not
in any way be affected or impaired by the severance of the provisions or parts thereof severed;

 

		(b)	the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision or part thereof contained in this
Warrant in any jurisdiction shall not affect or impair such provision or part thereof or any other provisions of this Warrant Certificate
in any other jurisdiction; and

 

		(c)	the Company and the Holder shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Warrant Certificate so
as to effect the original intent of the Company and the Holder as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order
that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated and the economic benefits anticipated hereunder be as originally contemplated
to the greatest extent possible.

 

		(3)	Time shall be of the essence of this Warrant Certificate.

 

    - 17 - 

     

    

 

		(4)	In the event that any day on or before which any action is required to be taken hereunder is not
a Business Day, then such action shall be required to be taken on or before the requisite time on the next succeeding day that
is a Business Day. If the payment of any amount is deferred for any period,
then such period shall be included for purposes of the computation of any interest payable hereunder.

 

		(5)	This Warrant Certificate, the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 12, 2020, by and
between the Holder and the Company, and the other agreements, instruments and documents referenced herein and therein, in each
case as amended from time to time, constitute the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Warrant with respect to the
subject matter contained herein, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements, both written and oral,
with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions contained in this Warrant and the
Commitment Agreement, the provisions contained in this Warrant shall control.

 

		(6)	This Warrant Certificate and all of its provisions shall enure to the benefit of the Holder, and
their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal Representatives and assigns and shall be binding upon the
Company and its successors and permitted assigns. The expression the “Holder” as used herein shall include the Holder’s
assigns whether immediate or derivative.

 

		(7)	This Warrant may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all
of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Warrant delivered by facsimile, e-mail
or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy
of this Warrant.

 

		(8)	The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that
any of the provisions of this Warrant were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It
is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened
breaches of this Warrant and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Warrant in any court of competent jurisdiction,
in each case without proof of damages or otherwise (and each party hereto hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting
of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in
equity. The parties hereto agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law
or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy.

 

		(9)	This Warrant shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction
or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted.

 

    - 18 - 

     

    

 

		(10)	This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware
but the reference to such Laws shall not, by conflict of laws rules or otherwise, require the application of the Law of any jurisdiction.
The Company and the Holder each hereby irrevocably agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware
(or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction, any state
or federal court within the State of Delaware), for the purposes of any action or legal proceeding arising out of this Warrant
and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, and irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue
of any such action or legal proceeding in any such court, and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to
plead or claim in any such court that any such action or legal proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party
hereto agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail to such party’s respective address
set forth in Section 11 shall be effective service of process for any such action or legal proceeding.

 

		(11)	Each party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any right it
may have to a trial by jury in respect of any action or legal proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection
with this Warrant.
