    TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT  This TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (including all Exhibits and any other  attachments hereto, this “Agreement”), is entered into as of May 25, 2022 by and among National  Grid USA Service Company, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (“Service Provider”), The  Narragansett Electric Company, a Rhode Island corporation (“Rover” and together with Service  Provider, the “Parties” and each individually a “Party”), and, solely with respect to Section 4.6,  National Grid USA, a Delaware corporation (“Newquay”).  Capitalized terms used in this  Agreement and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in that  certain Share Purchase Agreement (as it may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to  time in accordance with its terms, the “Share Purchase Agreement”), dated as of March 17, 2021,  by and among PPL Energy Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Pluto”),  Newquay, and PPL Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation.  W I T N E S S E T H:  WHEREAS, pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, Pluto agreed, among other things,  to purchase from Newquay, and Newquay agreed to sell to Pluto, one hundred percent (100%) of  the outstanding shares of common stock of Rover;  WHEREAS, Newquay and its Affiliates will derive a substantial benefit from the  transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement; and  WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase  Agreement, Newquay and Pluto desire that Service Provider, an Affiliate of Newquay, provide  Rover with certain transitional services as set forth in this Agreement; and  WHEREAS, the Parties have agreed to enter into such transitional arrangements to be  effective as of the Closing under the Share Purchase Agreement on the terms and conditions set  forth in this Agreement.  NOW, THEREFORE, for valid consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby  acknowledged and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements contained herein,  the Parties hereby agree as follows:  ARTICLE I    TRANSITION SERVICES  Section 1.1 General Intent.  Each Party acknowledges and understands that the  services provided hereunder are transitional in nature and are furnished by Service Provider solely  for the purpose of facilitating the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement and  the operation of Rover and its Affiliates for a limited period of time, as set forth herein, and in  furtherance thereof each Party expresses its intention to cooperate in good faith to provide  information and assistance as reasonably requested by the other Party to effectuate a smooth  transition.  For the duration of the Transition Period (as defined in Section 3.2), to the extent not  otherwise acquired by Pluto pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, Pluto and Rover shall have  access during regular business hours and upon reasonable advance notice to such documents,  

 

2    books and manuals as are reasonably necessary to obtain the benefit of the use of the Transition  Services and to transition away from the use of the Transition Services by the end of the Transition  Period.  As part of each of the Transition Services, Service Provider will (a) cooperate with and  use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Rover and its Affiliates in effectuating an orderly  transition of each Transition Service to Pluto’s or Rover’s own internal organization or other third- party suppliers no later than the expiration of the term set forth herein applicable to such Transition  Service, including by making employees of Service Provider and its Affiliates reasonably available  during normal business hours for knowledge transfer to Pluto, Rover or its designee, and each  Party shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with the other Party to facilitate such orderly transition,  (b) transfer, or cause to be transferred, the books, records, files, information and data held, received  or created by Service Provider or its Affiliates for the benefit of Pluto, Rover, or each of their  Affiliates as reasonably requested by Pluto or Rover as related to the Rover Business, subject to  reasonable mutually agreed transfer timetables and staging and (c) provide to Rover, subject to  reasonable mutually agreed transfer timetables and staging or as otherwise more specifically set  forth on Exhibit A, copies of data generated by Service Provider in providing the Transition  Services that relate to Pluto’s, Rover’s or each of their Affiliates’ businesses, including its  customers, products, technologies and assets, subject to any third-party confidentiality or other use  restrictions (with Service Provider to use commercially reasonable efforts to communicate the  applicable information to Rover in a way that would not violate such restrictions); provided, for  the avoidance of doubt, that costs and expenses of Service Provider with respect to the foregoing  will be charged to Rover consistent with Section 2.1.  Section 1.2 Provision and Purchase of Transition Services.  Subject to and upon  the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and on Exhibit A annexed hereto, Service  Provider agrees to provide, or cause to be provided, to Pluto and Rover, and Rover agrees to  purchase from Service Provider, each of the services set forth on Exhibit A (collectively the  “Transition Services” and separately a “Transition Service”) for the applicable service period for  such Transition Service set forth on Exhibit A (as such service period may be extended in  accordance with Section 3.1(a)(i)).  For the avoidance of doubt, each of the Transition Services  shall include all of the underlying services and tasks that are necessary for the proper performance  of, or that are inherent to or necessarily part of, the provision of such Transition Service.  Section 1.3 Omitted and Additional Services.    (a) In the event that within twelve (12) months after the date hereof, Pluto  identifies a service that Service Provider or any of its Affiliates provided to Rover in the twelve  (12) months prior to the Closing, and that Pluto reasonably needs in order to continue to operate  the business operations of Rover in substantially the same manner in which Rover operated prior  to the Closing, and such service was not included (and not otherwise expressly excluded) in Exhibit  A (each, an “Omitted Service”), then Rover may submit a written request to Service Provider to  provide such Omitted Service.  Upon receipt of such written request for an Omitted Service,  Service Provider will, so long as Service Provider has not ceased performing services substantially  similar to the Omitted Service for the benefit of itself or its Affiliates, respond in writing within  ten (10) days of the written request, notifying Rover (i) whether Service Provider is able, through  the use of commercially reasonable efforts, to provide such Omitted Service and (ii) the earliest  date upon which Service Provider expects it can begin providing such Omitted Service through  the use of commercially reasonable efforts, which date shall be within a reasonable period after  

 

3    Rover’s request; provided that, Service Provider shall inform Rover (which may be through  communication between the Coordinators) as promptly as possible if it anticipates that it will not  be able to commence providing such Omitted Service within fifteen (15) days after Rover’s request  and the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to attempt to expedite commencement or implement  earlier partial provision of such Omitted Service.  Within ten (10) days of Service Provider’s  notice, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to execute amendments to Exhibit A, as applicable,  for such Omitted Service to be provided that shall set forth, among other things, (A) a description  of such Omitted Service in reasonable detail, (B) the applicable service period for such Omitted  Service, (C) the fees and expenses for such Omitted Service (it being agreed that the fees for such  service shall be determined on a basis consistent with Article II unless otherwise mutually agreed)  and (D) any additional reasonable terms and conditions specific to such Omitted Service.  For  clarity, each Omitted Service that Service Provider commences providing pursuant to the  foregoing provisions will thereafter be deemed to be a Transition Service hereunder.  (b) In the event that within twelve (12) months after the Closing, Rover  requests a service that was not included (and not otherwise expressly excluded) in Exhibit A (each,  an “Additional Service”), Service Provider shall consider such request in good faith and, to the  extent that the Parties reach an agreement on the provision of such Additional Service, the Parties  shall cooperate to amend Exhibit A, as applicable, for such Additional Service that shall set forth,  among other things, (i) a description of such Additional Service in reasonable detail, (ii) the  applicable service period for such Additional Service, (iii) the fees and expenses for such  Additional Service (it being agreed that the charge for such service to the extent performed by  Service Provider or its Affiliates for Rover in the ordinary course of business prior to the Closing  shall be determined on a basis consistent with Article II unless otherwise mutually agreed) and (iv)  any additional reasonable terms and conditions specific to such Additional Service.  For clarity,  each Additional Service that is agreed to be provided by Service Provider pursuant to the foregoing  provisions thereafter will be deemed to be a Transition Service hereunder.  Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary herein, the provision of any Additional Services shall be subject to the  receipt of any required regulatory approvals in connection therewith.  Section 1.4 Service Standards.  Subject to any limitations expressly set forth in  Exhibit A, Service Provider shall provide and perform, or cause to be provided and performed, the  Transition Services that it is required to provide under this Agreement using the same degree of  care and skill as it utilizes in rendering such services for its own utility Affiliates’ operations, and  in any event, in accordance with Good Utility Practice; provided that nothing in this Agreement  shall require Service Provider to favor the business of Pluto or Rover over Service Provider’s own  or its Affiliates’ business operations.  Nothing in this Agreement shall restrict or prohibit Service  Provider from, with reasonable advance notice to Rover with respect to material changes made to  a Transition Service, modifying the manner in which it provides, or systems utilized in providing,  any Transition Service, in order to (a) automate, update, upgrade or enhance the provision of such  Transition Service or the provision of similar services to Service Provider’s Affiliates or  (b) otherwise satisfy a legitimate business purpose, so long as such change does not materially  adversely impact Rover’s receipt of the Transition Service.  The quantity of each Transition  Service to be provided shall be that which Rover may reasonably require for the operation of Rover  in the ordinary course of business consistent in all material respects with the operation of Rover  prior to the Closing and, in any event, in accordance with Good Utility Practice.  Service Provider  

 

4    agrees to assign sufficient resources and qualified personnel as are reasonably required to perform  the Transition Services in accordance with the standards set forth in this Section 1.4.   Section 1.5 Premises Access Rights.  During the Transition Period, Rover shall  grant to the employees, agents and authorized third-party vendors of Service Provider access to  Rover’s premises and equipment as may be reasonably necessary for Service Provider to perform  its obligations under this Agreement, subject to (a) Rover’s existing premises and equipment  access policies and (b) Rover’s subsequently updated premises and equipment access policies of  which Service Provider has been informed and given reasonable advance notice and that do not  unreasonably interfere with the provision of Transition Services consistent with past practice.  Section 1.6 Points of Contact.  Each of Service Provider and Rover shall  designate one individual to serve as principal transaction coordinator (each a “Coordinator”) with  regard to this Agreement, and such Coordinators, including addresses and email addresses for  notices, shall be identified on Exhibit B.  Each Coordinator shall be responsible for the overall  implementation of this Agreement between Service Provider and Rover, including resolution of  any issues that may arise during the performance hereunder on a day-to-day basis.  The  Coordinators may designate by written notice to the other Party additional sub-coordinators to be  primarily responsible for the implementation of this Agreement with respect to specific functional  areas.  To ensure overall coordination and administration of this Agreement on a consistent basis,  the Coordinators and sub-coordinators shall report to each other regarding any ongoing  implementation issues, including any disputes.  Either Party may change its designated  Coordinator or sub-coordinators upon written notice to the other Party.  The Coordinators and sub- coordinators shall communicate with each other on an as-needed basis, including participating in  a telephone conference regarding the Transition Services at least once a month, with specific sub- coordinators designated to meet more frequently.  Section 1.7 Cooperation.  Each Party will perform all of its obligations under  this Agreement in good faith and reasonably cooperate with the other Party in all matters relating  to the provision and receipt of the Transition Services in order to facilitate the provision and receipt  of the Transition Services and effect a smooth and orderly transition of the Transition Services  provided hereunder.  Each Party shall provide updates to the other Party regarding the achievement  of key transition milestones or any delays or expected delays with respect to transitioning any  Transition Service by the expiration of the applicable service period for such Transition Service.   The Parties will reasonably cooperate with each other in making information available as needed  in the event of any and all internal or external audits, including regulatory audits.  From time to  time after the date hereof, each Party shall use reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all  appropriate action, do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable  under applicable Requirements of Law, and execute and deliver such documents as may be  required or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and to consummate, perform  and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby.  Section 1.8 Subcontracting; Third-Party Warranties.   (a)  Subject to any limitations expressly set forth in Exhibit A, Service  Provider may in its discretion provide the Transition Services either through its own resources or  the resources of its Affiliates or by contracting with third-party subcontractors (each a  

 

5    “Subcontractor”) consistent with Service Provider’s practices in rendering such services for its  own utility Affiliates’ operations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) such delegation or  subcontracting shall not relieve Service Provider of any of its obligations under the Agreement  and (ii) Service Provider shall be responsible for the actions or inactions of its Affiliates, and for  the Specified Subcontractor Acts (as defined below), to the same extent it would have been  responsible had Service Provider itself provided or failed to provide the applicable Transition  Services (or portion thereof).  Except as set forth on Exhibit A, to the extent Service Provider has  during the twelve (12) months prior to the Closing provided certain services to Rover through  Service Provider’s own resources or the resources of its Affiliates, Service Provider shall use  commercially reasonable efforts to maintain such practice with respect to the same Transition  Services, except (A) as consistent with changes in Service Provider’s practices in rendering similar  services for its own utility Affiliates operations, (B) for changes to adjust for personnel that  previously supported such services being hired by or transferred to Rover, Pluto or their Affiliates  or (C) for changes that otherwise satisfy a legitimate business purpose, so long as such change  does not materially adversely impact Rover’s receipt of the applicable Transition Service.  In the  event Service Provider fails to comply with the preceding sentence in contracting with a  Subcontractor to provide Transition Services, Service Provider shall be responsible for the actions  or inactions of such Subcontractor in providing the applicable Transition Service (or portion  thereof) that Service Provider previously provided through its own resources or the resources of  its Affiliates during the twelve (12) months prior to the Closing (such actions or inactions, the  “Specified Subcontractor Acts”) in accordance with clause (ii) above.  (b) Notwithstanding Section 1.8(a), to the extent that a Subcontractor is  performing Transition Services: (i) Service Provider’s sole liability (other than with respect to  Specified Subcontractor Acts) shall be to transfer or otherwise pass through to Rover the benefit  of any warranties or remedies available under Services Provider’s contracts with such  Subcontractor in a manner that is equitable given the value of services, goods, inventory or  equipment received by Rover; and (ii) Service Provider shall negotiate such contracts with  Subcontractors that perform Transition Services using the same degree of care and skill as it  utilizes in negotiating similar contracts for its own utility Affiliates’ operations, and in any event,  using Good Utility Practice, including with respect to the negotiation of available warranties and  remedies.  Section 1.9 Third-Party Consents.  This Agreement shall not constitute an  agreement by Service Provider to provide any Transition Service or portion thereof if the provision  thereof, without the consent of a third party, would constitute a breach of a third party contract or  a violation of any Requirements of Law.  Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable  efforts to timely obtain all third-party consents and licenses necessary to provide the Transition  Services to Pluto, Rover or each of its Affiliates, with any out-of-pocket third-party consent fees  (collectively, “Consent Expenses”) incurred since the date of the Share Purchase Agreement to be  borne by Rover.  Service Provider shall keep Rover informed of the status of such negotiations  and the amount of such Consent Expenses on a reasonably current basis and shall not, without  Rover’s written consent, incur Consent Expenses in excess of $100,000 individually or $1,000,000  in the aggregate in connection with obtaining any individual or series of related third-party  consents or licenses.  Rover shall provide assistance as Service Provider may reasonably require  to obtain such third-party consents or licenses, including assistance with negotiating the terms of  consents with third-party suppliers and, as Service Provider or Rover may request, being  

 

6    responsible for negotiations with respect to any additional licenses required for Pluto, Rover or  their Affiliates to use third-party software.  If any such consents or licenses are not obtained,  Service Provider shall cooperate with Rover and use commercially reasonable efforts to determine  and implement alternative equivalent services, as necessary for the Transition Services to be  provided to or obtained by Pluto, Rover or their Affiliates, and Rover shall reasonably cooperate  in good faith in connection therewith.  To the extent that any such consents or licenses are not  obtained or alternative arrangements made by Service Provider, the Parties shall cooperate in good  faith to arrange for alternative services from a third-party provider and Service Provider shall, at  Rover’s request, use commercially reasonable efforts to purchase substantially similar services  from a third party provider as a Transition Service (subject to Rover paying the fees and expenses  for such Transition Service consistent with ARTICLE II), and shall use commercially reasonable  efforts to ensure there is no material disruption to the business operations of Rover.  Section 1.10 Limitation on Transition Services.  In connection with the  performance of the Transition Services, unless otherwise expressly required to be performed by  Service Provider as set forth on Exhibit A or agreed to by the Parties as an Additional Service in  accordance with Section 1.3, Service Provider shall have no obligation to (a) upgrade, enhance or  otherwise modify any computer hardware, software or network environment currently used by  Rover; provided that, subject to the second sentence of Section 1.4, the foregoing clause (a) shall  not relieve Service Provider from its obligation to maintain its computer hardware, software or  network environment in a manner, consistent with Good Utility Practice, to avoid a material  degradation in Transition Services as compared to the functionality provided during the twelve  (12) months prior to the Closing; (b) convert from one format to another any data of Rover for use  by Rover or any other person in connection with the Transition Services or otherwise, so long as  the data and electronic files are readable to Rover through commercially reasonable means;  (c) prepare financial statements, financial information or related certifications to be attributed to  Service Provider or its Affiliates for incorporation in any reporting required by the U.S. Securities  and Exchange Commission; or (d) provide legal advice to Rover or its Affiliates (it being  understood that any analysis or recommendations provided by Service Provider or its Affiliates  with respect to legal or regulatory matters shall not be construed as legal advice or create any  professional client relationship and Rover shall be responsible for obtaining its own legal advice  from internal or external legal counsel).  Section 1.11 Operations Protocols. If, from time to time, the Parties reasonably  determine any Transition Service, the more general terms of which are set forth on Exhibit A,  requires a more detailed operations protocol pursuant to which Service Provider will provide such  Transition Service to Rover, the Parties will cooperate in good faith to document the terms of an  appropriate operations protocol for such Transition Service, provided that such terms shall be  consistent with the terms for such Transition Service as provided on Exhibit A.  ARTICLE II    FEES AND EXPENSES  Section 2.1 Fees for Transition Services.  In consideration for receiving the  Transition Services, Rover shall pay to Service Provider an amount equal to (a) the Fully Loaded  Costs (as defined below) plus (b) a five percent (5%) mark-up on such Fully Loaded Costs (the  

 

7    “Mark-up”); provided, that the Mark-up shall not be charged on the costs and expenses of third- party services, goods (including gas and electricity sales arranged by Service Provider), inventory  or equipment (collectively, “Third-Party Expenses”).  For purposes hereof, “Fully Loaded Costs”  shall mean fully loaded direct and indirect costs and expenses of providing the Transition Services  (including employee salaries, wages, pensions, benefits and health insurance, office supplies and  expenses, property insurance, injuries and damages, miscellaneous general expenses,  administrative, supervisory and support costs, rents, maintenance of structures and equipment,  capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization, payroll and other taxes, and compensation for  the use of capital).  Rover acknowledges that an extension to the Transition Services as provided  herein beyond the 24-month anniversary of the Closing may result in incremental costs to Service  Provider or its Affiliates related to projects and/or initiatives within Service Provider or its  Affiliates, and, accordingly, Rover agrees that all such incremental costs in connection with such  projects and/or initiatives, to the extent such costs are a consequence of an extension to a Transition  Service, shall be included within “Fully Loaded Costs”.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement,  Fully Loaded Costs shall be charged to Rover on the same general basis as has been in effect prior  to the date hereof, as may be more specifically set forth on Exhibit A with respect to individual  Transition Services.  In the event that any Transition Services continue beyond the 24-month  anniversary of the Closing, the Mark-up shall be increased by an additional ten percent (10%) for  the first three (3) months after the 24-month anniversary of the Closing (resulting in an aggregate  Mark-up of 15%) and thereafter shall be increased by an additional five percent (5%) for each  subsequent three (3) month period.  Section 2.2 Invoicing and Payment.   (a) Unless otherwise specified in Exhibit A and subject to Section 2.3,  Service Provider shall render to Rover within fifteen (15) days of the beginning of each month an  invoice that includes estimates of all fees payable to it and all charges and expenses incurred by it  for the then-current calendar month of the Transition Period, itemizing all such fees, charges and  expenses in reasonable detail.  These estimated amounts subsequently will be adjusted by Service  Provider to reflect final amounts and included on the subsequent monthly invoice.  Rover shall  pay, or cause to be paid, any undisputed amounts set forth in each such invoice from Service  Provider within fifteen (15) days after receipt by it of each such invoice.  Payment to Service  Provider of all invoices in respect of the Transition Services shall be made in United States dollars  ($).  Neither Party shall offset any amounts owing to it by the other Party or under the Share  Purchase Agreement against amounts payable hereunder.  Service Provider and Rover shall  reasonably cooperate to develop a form of monthly report itemizing the fees, costs and expenses  to Rover for each calendar month of the Transition Period to be included with the invoices to be  delivered under this Section 2.2(a).  (b) If there is a dispute between the Parties regarding the amounts shown  as billed to Rover on any invoice, Rover shall pay the full amount of such invoice that is not in  dispute within the time periods set forth herein for such payment, and Service Provider shall, where  applicable and practicable, furnish to Rover such additional supporting documentation to  substantiate the amounts billed as Rover shall reasonably request.  Upon delivery of such  additional documentation, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith and use their commercially  reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute.  If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute within  twenty (20) Business Days after the delivery of such additional supporting documentation by  

 

8    Service Provider or notice from Service Provider that additional supporting documentation will  not be provided, as applicable, with respect to a final amount included on an invoice then the  dispute shall be referred for resolution to a firm of independent accountants mutually agreed upon  in good faith by the Parties in writing (the “Accounting Referee”).  If the parties are unable to  agree on an Accounting Referee, the matter shall be referred for resolution to KPMG, which will  serve as the Accounting Referee.  The Accounting Referee shall be instructed to determine the  validity of the disputed amounts within thirty (30) days of the referral of such dispute to the  Accounting Referee.  The determination of the Accounting Referee shall be binding on the Parties;  provided that such determination shall not require Rover to pay more than the amount in dispute  (except as provided herein with respect to interest and fees and expenses of the Accounting  Referee).  The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne by the Parties based on  the percentage which the portion of the disputed amount not awarded to each Party bears to the  amount actually contested by such Party.  (c) For a period of seven (7) years after the Closing, each Party shall keep  and maintain books, records, accounts and other documents related to the provision of the  Transition Services consistent with historical practices.  Such records shall include receipts,  invoices, memoranda, vouchers, inventories, timesheets and accounts pertaining to the Transition  Services, as well as complete copies of all written contracts, purchase orders, service agreements  and other such written arrangements entered into in connection therewith.  (d) Notwithstanding the payment by Rover of any charges, Rover shall  have the right, by written notice given to Service Provider no later than six (6) months following  the delivery of the applicable invoice (including any invoice adjusting the applicable estimated  amounts to reflect final amounts), to review and contest the charges.  Rover shall have the right to  audit Service Provider or any of its Affiliate’s relevant books, records, documents, accounting  practices or internal controls; provided that such audit (i) relates solely to the Transition Services  and (ii) shall not unreasonably interrupt the business or operations of Service Provider and its  Affiliates.  Subject to the foregoing limitations, upon written request by Rover, Service Provider  shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, within a reasonable period of time, provide, at the sole cost  and expense of Rover, assistance, records and access reasonably requested by Rover in responding  to such audit (including documents related to testing methodologies, test results, audit reports of  significant findings, and remediation plans with respect to any material deficiencies in Service  Provider’s or its Affiliates’ internal controls or procedures), to the extent that such assistance,  records or access is within the reasonable control of Service Provider or its Affiliates and relates  to the Transition Services provided hereunder by Service Provider.  Section 2.3 Taxes.  (a) All charges and fees to be paid by Rover under this Agreement are  exclusive of any sales Tax, goods and services Tax, value added Tax or any other similar Tax or  assessment that is required to be paid in connection with the Transition Services (each a “Sales  and Services Tax”, and collectively, “Sales and Services Taxes”).  If any Sales and Services Taxes  are assessed on the provision of any Transition Services under this Agreement, (i) Service Provider  shall deliver to Rover an invoice (or other valid and customary documentation) reflecting such  Sales and Services Taxes in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, (ii) Rover shall pay  to Service Provider the amount shown as due on such invoice in accordance with Section 2.2, and  

 

9    (iii) Service Provider shall timely remit to the applicable Governmental Authority any Sales and  Services Taxes that are paid by Rover to Service Provider pursuant to clause (ii) hereof or that are  otherwise required to be collected and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority under  applicable Law; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, except to the extent reflected in Fully  Loaded Costs charged pursuant to Section 2.1, each of Rover and Service Provider shall be  responsible for (A) any real or personal property Taxes on property it owns or leases, (B) franchise,  margin, privilege and similar Taxes on its business, (C) the employment Taxes or contributions  imposed on it or required from it with respect to its employees and (D) Taxes based on its income,  gross receipts or capital.  (b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the  contrary, Rover and each of its Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (or cause to be  deducted and withheld) from amounts otherwise payable to any person pursuant to this Agreement  such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment  under any provision of any U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. Tax law (“Withholding Taxes”).   To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Rover or any of its Affiliates and remitted to the  appropriate Governmental Authority, such withheld and remitted amounts shall be treated for all  purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the relevant person in respect of which such  deduction and withholding was made.  Each of the Parties agrees to use reasonable best efforts to  mitigate the imposition of any Withholding Taxes.  (c) Rover shall be entitled to any refund of any Sales and Services Tax  for which it is responsible under this Section 2.3, and if Service Provider or any of its Affiliates  receives a refund of such Sales and Services Taxes borne by Rover, Service Provider shall remit,  or cause to be remitted, to Rover within ten (10) days, the amount of such refund.   (d) Each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reasonably  cooperate with the other Party (in accordance with Section 1.7) in connection with (i) mitigating  the imposition of any Sales and Services Taxes required to be paid or collected, including by the  provision of documentation necessary to support Sales and Services Tax exemptions, and (ii) the  reporting of, or any audit, assessment, refund, claim or proceeding relating to, any such Sales and  Services Taxes, including by the provision of information or data (including any resale certificate,  other exemption certificates, and information regarding out-of-state use of materials, services or  sale) as reasonably requested from time to time.  Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party  of any material deficiency claim or similar notice by a Governmental Authority connected to the  provision of any Transition Services under this Agreement.  (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this  Agreement, this Section 2.3 shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.  Section 2.4 No Right to Suspend Performance; Interest.  (a) Neither Party shall suspend the performance of its obligations  hereunder notwithstanding any dispute that may be pending between the Parties or their Affiliates,  whether under this Agreement or otherwise.  If it is mutually agreed by the Parties or otherwise  determined pursuant to Section 2.2 that Service Provider has incorrectly invoiced or billed Rover  for excess fees or insufficient fees, as applicable, Service Provider shall remit any excess amounts  

 

10    to Rover or Rover shall remit such insufficient amount, in each case, within fifteen (15) days  following such determination.  (b) Any amounts payable by a Party to the other Party shall accrue  interest at a rate of 7.00% per annum as of the date payment was due until the date such payment  is made.  Neither Party may deduct from or set off against any amounts such Party or any Affiliate  of such Party may owe to the other Party or its Affiliates.  ARTICLE III    TERM AND TERMINATION  Section 3.1 Duration of the Transition Services.  (a) Each Transition Service described in Exhibit A shall continue until  the earlier of (i) the expiration of the applicable service period for such Transition Service set forth  in Exhibit A, provided that Rover shall have the right, upon written notice to Service Provider at  least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date set forth in Exhibit A (provided that, if the  date set forth on Exhibit A is less than or equal to one hundred eighty (180) days after the date  hereof, then such written  notice must be delivered within ten (10) Business Days of the date  hereof), to extend such date with respect to any Transition Service as and if reasonably expected  to be necessary to complete the successful transition to Pluto, (ii) the termination of this  Agreement, and (iii) such time as Rover terminates such Transition Service in accordance with  Section 3.1(b).  (b) Rover may terminate all or a portion of any Transition Service that is  being provided by Service Provider, subject to any limitations on the termination of individual  Transition Services described in Exhibit A, upon written notice to Service Provider identifying the  Transition Service to be terminated and the effective date of termination, which date shall not be  earlier than one hundred eighty (180) days after receipt of such notice unless either (i) Service  Provider otherwise agrees or (ii) Rover reimburses Service Provider for Service Provider’s  incremental costs in connection with such earlier termination along with payment of all remaining  Fully Loaded Costs in accordance with Section 2.1 that Service Provider cannot reasonably  eliminate for the period beginning on the effective date of termination until the one hundred  eightieth (180th) day after receipt of such notice.  Effective upon the termination of such Transition  Service, Service Provider shall have no further obligation under this Agreement to provide such  Transition Service and the fees associated with such Transition Service shall be equitably reduced  to reflect the removal of the terminated Transition Services (if such terminated Transition Services  are not reasonably required to be performed by Service Provider to continue to provide other  Transition Services that are not terminated in accordance herewith to Rover) with respect to any  period commencing on or after the effective date of such termination.  Section 3.2 Effectiveness; Term.  The effectiveness of this Agreement and the  Parties’ rights and obligations hereunder is conditioned upon the occurrence of the Closing under  the Share Purchase Agreement.  The term of this Agreement (including as it may be extended  pursuant to clause (a) below, the “Transition Period”) shall commence upon Closing and end,  subject to earlier termination, on the earlier of (a) the 24-month anniversary of the Closing,  

 

11    provided that Rover shall have the right, upon written notice to Service Provider at least one  hundred eighty (180) days prior to the 24-month anniversary of the Closing, to extend such date  as and if reasonably expected to be necessary to complete the successful transition to Pluto and (b)  the cessation by Rover of the purchase of all of the Transition Services under this Agreement.  Upon the termination of the Share Purchase Agreement, this Agreement shall immediately and  automatically terminate and shall be of no further force and effect, and the Parties shall have no  rights or obligations hereunder from and after any such termination.  Section 3.3 Termination for Material Breach.  Rover may terminate this  Agreement or any specific Transition Service upon any material breach of this Agreement by  Service Provider that remains uncured for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof.   Service  Provider may terminate its obligations to provide any Transition Service if Rover fails to pay any  sum due and payable to Service Provider with respect to such Transition Services within  fifteen (15) days after written notice thereof of such failure to pay a payment when due, unless  such amount is being disputed by Rover in good faith in accordance herewith.   Section 3.4 Survival.  Notwithstanding any termination or expiration of this  Agreement (whether terminated by Service Provider or Rover) or any Transition Service, each  Party will remain liable to the other Party for the payment of fees and expenses accruing to the  other Party for the period prior to such termination or expiration even though such fees may not  become due until after termination or expiration.  Further, the provisions of Section 2.3 (Taxes),  Section 2.4(b) (Interest), Section 4.1 (Confidentiality), Section 4.2 (Disclosure of Confidential  Information), Section 4.3 (Ownership of Intellectual Property), Section 4.4 (Non-Solicitation;  Offers of Employment), Section 4.5 (Security, Privacy and Data Use), Article V (Limitation of  Liability; Indemnification; Disclaimer of Warranty) and Article VI (Miscellaneous) shall survive  any termination or expiration of this Agreement or any Transition Service.  ARTICLE IV    CONFIDENTIALITY AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY; ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS  Section 4.1 Confidentiality.  All confidential or proprietary information or  documentation, regardless of its form, including, for the avoidance of doubt, Personal Information  (as defined in the Information Security Addendum appended hereto as Exhibit C) (“Confidential  Information”), of either Party or of its past, present or prospective customers or employees which  is disclosed to, is acquired by or comes into the possession of, the other Party through operation  of this Agreement shall be held in confidence by the other Party (including its Affiliates) and shall  be protected against unauthorized disclosure to the same extent and in the same manner as such  Party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of like nature.  Neither Party shall  disclose, publish, release, transfer or otherwise make available Confidential Information of the  other Party in any form to, or for the use or benefit of, any person or entity, or duplicate or  reproduce the same, without such other Party’s prior written approval.  Each Party shall, however,  be permitted to disclose relevant aspects of the other Party’s Confidential Information to its  officers, agents, employees and authorized representatives and to the officers, agents, employees  and authorized representatives of its Affiliates, only to the extent that such disclosure is reasonably  necessary to the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement; provided, that  such Party shall take all reasonable measures to ensure that Confidential Information of the other  

 

12    Party is not disclosed or duplicated in contravention of the provisions of this Agreement by any  such officer, agent, employee or authorized representative (it being understood that each Party  shall be responsible for any breach of such Party’s obligations caused by the acts or omissions of  its Affiliates, officers, agents, employees or authorized representatives).  Notwithstanding the  foregoing, information of a Party disclosed to the other Party shall not be deemed Confidential  Information if such information (a) is at the time of such disclosure in the public domain, or  thereafter comes into the public domain from a third party and through no fault of the receiving  Party; (b) can be demonstrably shown to have been in the possession of the receiving Party at the  time of disclosure by the disclosing Party or to have been independently developed by the receiving  Party; or (c) shall have become legally available to the receiving Party from a third party having  no obligation of confidentiality with respect thereto, provided that information that would be  Confidential Information but not for this sentence is considered Confidential Information pursuant  to this Agreement even if it has become public as a result of a Security Breach (as defined in the  Information Security Addendum appended hereto as Exhibit C).  To the extent practicable, upon  request of any disclosing Party, the other Party will, and will cause its Affiliates, agents and  authorized representatives to, promptly return to such disclosing Party (or, if requested by the  disclosing Party, destroy) all copies of the Confidential Information received from the disclosing  Party and will destroy all memoranda, notes and other writings prepared by such Party based on  the Confidential Information.  No Party shall use Confidential Information for any purpose other  than in connection with performing its obligations under this Agreement.  The rights and  obligations of the Parties hereunder with respect to any Confidential Information disclosed or  obtained prior to termination shall survive for a period of three (3) years following any termination  or expiration of this Agreement, and, with regard to Personal Information, for as long as such  information is Processed (as defined in the Information Security Addendum appended hereto as   Exhibit C) by the receiving Party.  Section 4.2 Disclosure of Confidential Information. Notwithstanding  Section 4.1, either Party may disclose Confidential Information in the following circumstances (or  as otherwise provided by the provisions of this Agreement): (a) in response to a court order or  formal discovery request, (b) in compliance with the order of any governmental or regulatory  authority of competent jurisdiction (including a reasonable request by a Governmental Authority),  or (c) as otherwise required by applicable Requirements of Law; provided, in each such case, that  the disclosing Party may only disclose such information if (i) it shall first have used commercially  reasonable efforts to obtain, and, if practicable, shall have afforded the other Party the opportunity  to obtain, an appropriate protective order or other satisfactory assurance of confidential treatment  of the information required to be so disclosed, and (ii) if such protective order or other remedy is  not obtained, or the other Party waives such person’s compliance with the provisions of this  Section 4.2, it will only furnish that portion of the Confidential Information which is legally  required to be so disclosed.  Section 4.3 Ownership of Intellectual Property. Except as expressly set forth in  this Agreement, no provision of this Agreement is intended to, or will, (a) assign or otherwise  transfer any title in any goods, equipment or software, or any associated Intellectual Property  rights, from any Party to any Party, or (b) assign any contract, or rights under contracts, from any  Party to any other Party.  Notwithstanding any materials, deliverables or other products that may  be created or developed by Service Provider or its Affiliates during the Transition Period, no title,  right or interest in such related Intellectual Property shall be obtained by Rover, unless Service  

 

13    Provider specifically agrees otherwise in response to a request from Rover.  All rights not expressly  granted in this Agreement by a Party are expressly reserved to such Party and its licensors and  information, content and software providers.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely to the extent  required for the provision or receipt of the Transition Services (as applicable) in accordance with  this Agreement, each Party (the “Licensor”), for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates, hereby grants  to the other party (the “Licensee”) (and the Licensee’s Affiliates) a non-exclusive, non-transferable  (other than in accordance with Section 6.4), royalty-free, worldwide license to use the Intellectual  Property rights (and any and all improvements, modifications, enhancements or derivative works  thereof) of the Licensor only to the extent and for the duration necessary for the Licensee to provide  or receive (as applicable) the applicable Transition Services under this Agreement.  Upon the  expiration or termination of a Transition Service in accordance with this Agreement, the license to  the relevant Intellectual Property rights shall automatically and immediately terminate, and all  licenses granted hereunder shall automatically and immediately terminate upon the expiration or  earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof.  Section 4.4 Non-Solicitation; Offers of Employment.  For the duration of the  Transition Period and for a period of one year thereafter, neither Rover, nor any of its Affiliates or  Representatives shall, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment or hire any employee of  Service Provider or its Affiliates or otherwise initiate any offer or promise of employment with  any employee of Service Provider or its Affiliates without Service Provider’s prior written consent;  provided, that this prohibition does not apply to solicitations or hiring as the result of solicitations  made to the public or the industry generally, and Rover is not prohibited from employing any such  individual who (a) ceases to be employed by Service Provider or any of its Affiliates or (b) reaches  out to Rover on his or her own initiative, in either case without prior solicitation or encouragement  to terminate such employment from Rover or its Affiliates or Representatives in violation of this  Agreement, provided, further, that during the Transition Period, Pluto, Rover or one of their  Affiliates may (but shall not be required to) offer employment to one or more of the TSA  Employees as permitted by Section 6.9(a)(vi) of the Share Purchase Agreement.  Section 4.5 Security, Privacy and Data Use.  If either Party (the “Accessing  Party”) or any of its Affiliates gains access to the other Party’s, or any of its Affiliates’ computer,  electronic or data storage systems in connection with the provision or receipt of the Transition  Services, the Accessing Party shall use such access solely for the purpose of providing or receiving  the Transition Services, as applicable.  The Accessing Party shall use commercially reasonable  efforts to (a) limit such access to the Accessing Party’s employees who reasonably require such  access in connection with the Transition Services being provided or received, as applicable, and  (b) follow the other Party’s security, privacy and data use rules and procedures regarding the use  of such Party’s computer, electronic or data storage systems of which Accessing Party has been  informed and is given reasonable advance notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the  Information Security Addendum appended hereto as Exhibit C).  Any employees, contractors or  other representatives of the Accessing Party or any of its Affiliates gaining access hereunder shall  as a condition precedent to gaining such access or use be directed to comply with the procedures  that the other Party requires for third party access pursuant to such Party’s security, privacy and  data use rules and procedures of which the Accessing Party has been informed and is given  reasonable advance notice.  All user names and passwords disclosed to, or discovered by, the  Accessing Party and any information of the other Party or its Affiliates obtained by the Accessing  Party or its Affiliates as a result of the Accessing Party’s access to the other Party’s computer,  

 

14    electronic or data storage systems (other than the Accessing Party’s Confidential Information)  shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as, the other Party’s Confidential Information.  The  Information Security Addendum shall also apply to Service Provider’s Processing of Personal  Information regardless of whether such Processing involves access to Rover’s systems.  Section 4.6 Newquay Guarantee.  Newquay shall cause Service Provider to  comply with all Service Provider’s agreements, covenants and obligations under this Agreement  and hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Rover the full and complete performance  of all of Service Provider’s agreements, covenants and obligations under this Agreement on a  timely basis, including the due and punctual payment by Service Provider of Service Provider’s  payment obligations and liabilities under this Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  The  foregoing sentence is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guarantee of the full and punctual  discharge and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations.  If Service Provider defaults in the  discharge and performance of all or any portion of its payment obligations under this Agreement,  the obligations of Newquay hereunder shall become immediately due and payable.  Newquay  hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of performance, filing of any claim, any right to  require any proceeding first against Service Provider, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever  in connection with the performance of its obligations set forth in this Section 4.6 or elsewhere in  this Agreement.

No Party  

 

18    may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the  other Party and any purported assignment without such consent shall be void.

In no event shall either Party’s  personnel be deemed to be employees of the other Party.  Section 6.6 Governing Law.  This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action  (whether at law, in contract or in tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this  Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof, shall be governed by and  construed in accordance with the Requirements of Law of the State of Delaware, without regard  to any choice or conflict of law principles or rules (whether of the State of Delaware or any other  jurisdiction) that would mandate or permit the application of the Requirements of Law of any  jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.  Section 6.7 Dispute Resolution; Jurisdiction; Venue; Specific Performance;  Waiver of Trial by Jury.  (a) In the event a disagreement should arise with respect to this  Agreement or any Transition Services, subject to the terms hereof, the sub-coordinators with  respect to the applicable subject matter shall refer such disagreement to the Coordinators. In the  event that the Coordinators are unable to resolve such disagreement within fifteen (15) days from  the date of such referral (or such lesser or longer period as the Coordinators may mutually agree  in their reasonable discretion is a useful period for their discussions), the Coordinators shall  escalate such disagreement (i) to the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of  Pluto and the Chief Transformation Officer of Newquay, who shall discuss and attempt in good  faith to resolve such disagreement and, if the disagreement is not resolved, then (ii) to the Chief  Executive Officers of Rover and Newquay, respectively, who shall do the same.  Should the Parties  fail to reach agreement with respect to any such disagreements within fifteen (15) days of the  escalation referred to in clause (ii) (or such lesser or longer period as they may mutually agree in  their reasonable discretion is a useful period for their discussions), then it is the intent of the Parties  that the resolution for such disagreement or issue will be determined by the formal process for  resolution set forth in Section 6.7(b).  In the event of such a disagreement, the Parties agree to  exhaust the foregoing process set forth in this Section 6.7(a) before pursuing any relief under the  other terms of the Agreement except in the event that a Party reasonably determines that  completing the process set forth herein would unalterably prejudice such Party, in which case, such  Party shall not be required to exhaust the process set forth herein before pursuing any relief under  the other terms of the Agreement.  (b) Each Party agrees that all claims arising out of or in connection with  this Agreement shall be brought in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or,  if under applicable Requirement of Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in state courts, in the  Chancery Courts of the State of Delaware located in Wilmington, Delaware.  In connection with  any action or proceeding in any such court, each Party (i) consents to the service of process or  

 

19    other papers in connection with such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 6.3  or in such other manner as permitted by Requirements of Law, (ii) submits with regard to any such  action or proceeding, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of any such court,  and (iii) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Requirements of Law, and agrees  not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or  proceeding with respect to this Agreement in such court, any claim that the suit, action or  proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such suit,  action or proceeding is improper, or that this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be  enforced in or by such court pursuant to this Section 6.7.  (c) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event  that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific  terms or were otherwise breached.  Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, to prevent  breaches or threatened breaches by the Parties of any of their respective covenants or obligations  set forth in this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement,  the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief  to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof,  in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled in law or in equity.  In connection with  any request for specific performance or equitable relief by any Party, each of the other Parties  waives any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy.  (d) EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY  JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO  THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED  BY APPLICABLE LAW, OR ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN  RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER  OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY HERETO (i) CERTIFIES  THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED,  EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF  ANY LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND  (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HERETO HAVE BEEN  INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE  MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.7.  Section 6.8 Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, including Exhibit A and  Exhibit B, together with the Share Purchase Agreement and all annexes and exhibits hereto and  thereto, embody the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and  supersede all prior agreements with respect thereto.  Section 6.9 Consents; Waivers; Amendment.  All waivers and consents given  hereunder shall be in writing.  No waiver by any Party of any breach or anticipated breach of any  provision hereof by any other Party shall be deemed a waiver of any other contemporaneous,  preceding or succeeding breach or anticipated breach, whether or not similar.  Except as provided  in this Agreement, no action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or  on behalf of any Party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of  compliance by any other Party with any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements  contained in this Agreement.  The failure of any Party to assert any rights under this Agreement  

 

20    or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.  Any amendment to this Agreement shall  be in writing and signed by both Parties.

to the conditions set forth herein, it may issue and sell to or through the Agent, shares of common stock (the “Placement Shares”)
of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”); provided, however, that in no event

anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto agree that compliance with the limitations set forth in this Section
1 on the amount of Placement Shares issued and sold under this Agreement shall be the sole responsibility of the Company and that
the Agent shall have no obligation in connection with such compliance. The issuance and sale of Placement Shares through the Agent will
be effected pursuant to the Registration Statement (as defined below), although nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring
the Company to use the Registration Statement to issue any Placement Shares.

 

The
Company has filed, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and the rules and regulations thereunder
(the “Securities Act”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration
statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-254515), including a base prospectus, relating to certain securities, including the Placement Shares
to be issued from time to time by the Company, and which incorporates by reference documents that the Company has filed or will file
in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Exchange
Act”). The Company has prepared a prospectus supplement to the base prospectus included as part of the registration statement,
which prospectus supplement specifically relates to the Placement Shares to be issued from time to time by the Company (the “Prospectus
Supplement”). The Company will furnish to the Agent, for use by the Agent, copies of the prospectus included as part of such
registration statement, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, relating to the Placement Shares to be issued from time to time
by the Company. Except where the context otherwise requires, such registration statement, any post-effective amendment thereto, including
all documents filed as part thereof or incorporated by reference therein, and including any information contained in a Prospectus (as
defined below) subsequently filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or deemed to be a part of such
registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the Securities Act, or any subsequent registration statement on Form S-3 filed pursuant
to Rule 415(a)(6) under the Securities Act by the Company to cover any Placement Shares, is herein called the is herein called the “Registration
Statement.” The base prospectus, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, to the extent such information
has not been superseded or modified in accordance with Rule 412 under the Securities Act (as qualified by Rule 430B(g) of the Securities
Act), included in the Registration Statement, as it may be supplemented, if necessary, by the Prospectus Supplement, in the form in which
such base prospectus and/or Prospectus Supplement have most recently been filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)
under the Securities Act, together with the then issued Issuer Free Writing Prospectus(es) (as defined below), is herein called the “Prospectus.”
Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to refer to
and include the documents incorporated by reference therein, and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment”
or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the
filing after the execution hereof of any document with the Commission deemed to be incorporated by reference therein.

 

    	 

     

    

 

Any
reference herein to the Registration Statement, any Prospectus Supplement, Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus shall be
deemed to refer to and include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein (the “Incorporated Documents”),
including, unless the context otherwise requires, the documents, if any, filed as exhibits to such Incorporated Documents. Any reference
herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement,
any Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of
any document under the Exchange Act on or after the most-recent effective date of the Registration Statement, or the date of any Prospectus
Supplement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as the case may be, and incorporated therein by reference. For purposes
of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or to any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed
to include the most recent copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System, or
if applicable, the Interactive Data Electronic Application system when used by the Commission (collectively, “EDGAR”).

 

2.
Placements. Each time that the Company wishes to issue and sell Placement Shares hereunder (each, a “Placement”),
it will notify the Agent by electronic notice (or other method mutually agreed to in writing by the parties) of the number of Placement
Shares, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, any limitation on the number of Placement Shares that may be sold
in any one day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made (a “Placement Notice”), the form of which is
attached hereto as Schedule 1. The Placement Notice shall originate from any of the individuals from the Company set forth on Schedule
3 (with a copy to each of the other individuals from the Company listed on such schedule) and shall be addressed to each of the individuals
from the Agent set forth on Schedule 3, as such Schedule 3 may be amended from time to time. The Placement Notice shall be effective
unless and until (i) the Agent declines to accept the terms contained therein for any reason, in its sole discretion, (ii) the entire
amount of the Placement Shares thereunder has been sold, (iii) the Company suspends or terminates the Placement Notice or (iv) this Agreement
has been terminated under the provisions of Section 12. The amount of any discount, commission or other compensation to be paid
by the Company to the Agent in connection with the sale of the Placement Shares shall be calculated in accordance with the terms set
forth in Schedule 2. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that neither the Company nor the Agent will have any obligation whatsoever
with respect to a Placement or any Placement Shares unless and until the Company delivers a Placement Notice to the Agent and the Agent
does not decline such Placement Notice pursuant to the terms set forth above, and then only upon the terms specified therein and herein.
In the event of a conflict between the terms of Sections 2 or 3 of this Agreement and the terms of a Placement Notice, the terms of the
Placement Notice will control.

3.
Sale of Placement Shares by the Agent. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for the period specified in a Placement
Notice, the Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable
state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of The NASDAQ Capital Market (the “Exchange”), to sell
the Placement Shares up to the amount specified, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. The Agent will
provide written confirmation to the Company no later than the opening of the Trading Day (as defined below) immediately following the
Trading Day on which it has made sales of Placement Shares hereunder setting forth the number of Placement Shares sold on such day, the
compensation payable by the Company to the Agent pursuant to Section 2 with respect to such sales, and the Net Proceeds (as defined
below) payable to the Company, with an itemization of the deductions made by the Agent (as set forth in Section 5(b)) from the
gross proceeds that it receives from such sales. Subject to the terms of the Placement Notice, the Agent may sell Placement Shares by
any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities. The Company
and the Agent agree that the Agent shall sell all of the Placement Shares through the Exchange at market prices. “Trading Day”
means any day on which shares of Common Stock are purchased and sold on the Exchange.

 

4.
Suspension of Sales. The Company or the Agent may, upon notice to the other party in writing (including by email correspondence
to each of the individuals of the other party set forth on Schedule 3, if receipt of such correspondence is actually acknowledged by
any of the individuals to whom the notice is sent, other than via auto-reply) or by telephone (confirmed immediately by verifiable facsimile
transmission or email correspondence to each of the individuals of the other party set forth on Schedule 3), suspend any sale of Placement
Shares (a “Suspension”); provided, however, that such Suspension shall not affect or impair any party’s obligations
with respect to any Placement Shares sold hereunder prior to the receipt of such notice. While a Suspension is in effect any obligation
under Sections 7(l), 7(m), and 7(n) with respect to the delivery of certificates, opinions, or comfort letters to
the Agent, shall be waived. Each of the parties agrees that no such notice under this Section 4 shall be effective against any
other party unless it is made to one of the individuals named on Schedule 3 hereto, as such Schedule may be amended from time to time.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, during any period in which the Company is in possession of material non-public
information, the Company and the Agent agree that (i) no sale of Placement Shares will take place, (ii) the Company shall not request
the sale of any Placement Shares, and (iii) the Agent shall not be obligated to sell or offer to sell any Placement Shares.

 

5.
Sale and Delivery to the Agent; Settlement.

 

(a)
Sale of Placement Shares. On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions
herein set forth, upon the Agent’s acceptance of the terms of a Placement Notice, and unless the sale of the Placement Shares described
therein has been declined, suspended, or otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Agent, for the period
specified in the Placement Notice, will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices
and applicable law and regulations and the rules of the Exchange to sell such Placement Shares up to the amount specified in, and otherwise
in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that the
Agent will be successful in selling Placement Shares, (ii) the Agent will incur no liability or obligation to the Company or any other
person or entity if it does not sell Placement Shares for any reason other than a failure by the Agent to use its commercially reasonable
efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations and rules of the Exchange to sell such
Placement Shares as required under this Agreement and (iii) the Agent shall be under no obligation to purchase Placement Shares on a
principal basis pursuant to this Agreement, except as otherwise agreed by the Agent and the Company.

 

    	3

     

    

 

(b)
Settlement of Placement Shares. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Placement Notice, settlement for sales of Placement
Shares will occur on the second (2nd ) Trading Day (or such earlier day as is industry practice for regular-way trading) following
the date on which such sales are made (each, a “Settlement Date”). The Agent shall notify the Company of each sale
of Placement Shares no later than the opening day following the Trading Day that the Agent sold Placement Shares. The amount of proceeds
to be delivered to the Company on a Settlement Date against receipt of the Placement Shares sold (the “Net Proceeds”)
will be equal to the aggregate sales price received by the Agent, after deduction for (i) the Agent’s commission, discount or other
compensation for such sales payable by the Company pursuant to Section 2 hereof, and (ii) any transaction fees imposed by any
clearing firm, execution broker or governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales.

 

(c)
Delivery of Placement Shares. On or before each Settlement Date, the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically
transfer the Placement Shares being sold by crediting the Agent’s or its designee’s account (provided the Agent shall have
given the Company written notice of such designee and such designee’s account information at least one Trading Day prior to the
Settlement Date) at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery
as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto which in all cases shall be freely tradable, transferable, registered shares in
good deliverable form. On each Settlement Date, the Agent will deliver the related Net Proceeds in same day funds to an account designated
by the Company on, or prior to, the Settlement Date. The Company agrees that if the Company, or its transfer agent (if applicable), defaults
in its obligation to deliver Placement Shares on a Settlement Date through no fault of the Agent, then in addition to and in no way limiting
the rights and obligations set forth in Section 11(a) hereto, it will (i) hold the Agent harmless against any loss, claim, damage,
or reasonable, documented expense (including reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection
with such default by the Company or its transfer agent (if applicable) and (ii) pay to the Agent (without duplication) any commission,
discount, or other compensation to which it would otherwise have been entitled absent such default.

 

(d)
Limitations on Offering Size. Under no circumstances shall the Company cause or request the offer or sale of any Placement Shares
if, after giving effect to the sale of such Placement Shares, the aggregate gross sales proceeds of Placement Shares sold pursuant to
this Agreement would exceed the lesser of (A) together with all sales of Placement Shares under this Agreement, the Maximum Amount, (B)
the amount available for offer and sale under the currently effective Registration Statement and (C) the amount authorized from time
to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement by the Company’s board of directors, a duly authorized committee thereof or
a duly authorized executive committee, and notified to the Agent in writing. Under no circumstances shall the Company cause or request
the offer or sale of any Placement Shares pursuant to this Agreement at a price lower than the minimum price authorized from time to
time by the Company’s board of directors, a duly authorized committee thereof or a duly authorized executive committee and notified
to the Agent in writing. Further, under no circumstances shall the Company cause or permit the aggregate offering amount of Placement
Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement to exceed the Maximum Amount.

 

6.
Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement or Prospectus (including the
Incorporated Documents), the Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with the Agent that as of the date of this Agreement and
as of each Applicable Time (as defined below), unless such representation, warranty or agreement specifies a different date or time:

 

    	4

     

    

 

(a)
Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement meet the requirements for
and comply with the conditions for the use of Form S-3 under the Securities Act. The Registration Statement has been filed with the Commission
and has been declared effective by the Commission under the Securities Act. The Prospectus Supplement will name the Agent as the agent
in the section entitled “Plan of Distribution.” The Company has not received, and has no notice of, any order of the Commission
preventing or suspending the use of the Registration Statement or threatening or instituting proceedings for that purpose. The Registration
Statement and the offer and sale of Placement Shares as contemplated hereby meet the requirements of Rule 415 under the Securities Act
and comply in all material respects with said Rule. Any statutes, regulations, contracts or other documents that are required to be described
in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement have been so described or filed.
Copies of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, and any such amendments or supplements and all documents incorporated by reference
therein that were filed with the Commission on or prior to the date of this Agreement have been delivered, or are available through EDGAR,
to the Agent and its counsel. The Company has not distributed and, prior to the later to occur of each Settlement Date and completion
of the distribution of the Placement Shares, will not distribute any offering material in connection with the offering or sale of the
Placement Shares other than the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to which the Agent has
consented (any such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section
12(b) of the Exchange Act and is currently listed on the Exchange under the trading symbol “CLSN.” The Company has taken
no action designed to, or likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act, delisting
the Common Stock from the Exchange, nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission or the Exchange is contemplating
terminating such registration or listing (that has not been cured). To the Company’s knowledge, it is in compliance with all applicable
listing requirements of the Exchange. The Company has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be
in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements.

 

(b)
No Misstatement or Omission. The Registration Statement, when it became or becomes effective, and the Prospectus, and any amendment
or supplement thereto, on the date of such Prospectus or amendment or supplement, conformed and will conform in all material respects
with the requirements of the Securities Act. At each Settlement Date, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as of such date,
will conform in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act. The Registration Statement, when it became or becomes
effective, did not, and will not, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Prospectus and any amendment and supplement thereto, on the date
thereof and at each Applicable Time (defined below), did not or will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The
documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, or any Prospectus Supplement did not, and any further documents filed and incorporated
by reference therein will not, when filed with the Commission, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated in such document or necessary to make the statements in such document, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading. The foregoing shall not apply to statements in, or omissions from, any such document made in reliance
upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to the Company by Agent specifically for use in the preparation thereof.

 

(c)
Conformity with Securities Act and Exchange Act. The Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus
or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Prospectus Supplement, and the Incorporated Documents, when such documents were or are filed
with the Commission under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or became or become effective under the Securities Act, as the case
may be, conformed or will conform in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable.

not included or incorporated by reference as required; the Company does not have any material liabilities or obligations, direct or contingent

Prospectus; and all disclosures contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Issuer Free
Writing Prospectuses, if any, regarding “non-GAAP financial measures” (as such term is defined by the rules and regulations
of the Commission) comply, in all material respects, with Regulation G of the Exchange Act and Item 10 of Regulation S-K under the Securities
Act, to the extent applicable.

 

(e)
Conformity with EDGAR Filing. The Prospectus delivered to the Agent for use in connection with the sale of the Placement Shares

its business as described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing

contemplated hereby (a “Material Adverse Effect”).

as amended and restated; (ii) in default, and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such
a default, in the due performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the
property or assets of the Company is subject; or (iii) in violation of any law or statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation
of any court or arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority, except, in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for

in any respect thereunder where such default would be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Disclosure Controls. The Company maintains systems of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance
that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded
as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain
asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization;
and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is
taken with respect to any differences. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective and the Company is
not aware of any material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting (other than as set forth in the Prospectus). Since
the date of the latest audited financial statements of the Company included in the Prospectus, there has been no change in the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting (other than as set forth in the Prospectus). The Company has established disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures
to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities,
particularly during the period in which the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case
may be, is being prepared. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and
procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of the Form 10-K for the fiscal year most recently ended (such date,
the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year most recently ended the conclusions
of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation
Date and the disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the
Company’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act) or, to the Company’s
knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s internal controls.

 

(ee)
Sarbanes-Oxley. There is and has been no failure on the part of the Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, any of the Company’s
directors or officers, in their capacities as such, to comply in all material respects with any applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Each of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer
of the Company (or each former principal executive officer of the Company and each former principal financial officer of the Company
as applicable) has made all certifications required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act with respect to all reports, schedules,
forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it or furnished by it to the Commission. For purposes of the preceding

be expected to affect materially the Company’s liquidity or the availability of or requirements for its capital resources, including
those Off Balance Sheet Transactions described in the Commission’s Statement about Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

its terms and the requirements of any applicable statutes, orders, rules and regulations, including but not limited to ERISA and the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); no prohibited transaction, within the meaning of Section 406
of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, has occurred which would result in a material liability to the Company with respect to any such
plan excluding transactions effected pursuant to a statutory or administrative exemption; and for each such plan that is subject to the
funding rules of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA, no “accumulated funding deficiency” as defined in Section
412 of the Code has been incurred, whether or not waived, and the fair market value of the assets of each such plan (excluding for these
purposes accrued but unpaid contributions) exceeds the present value of all benefits accrued under such plan determined using reasonable
actuarial assumptions.

Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees with Agent that:

 

(a)
Registration Statement Amendments. After the date of this Agreement and during any period in which a Prospectus relating to any
Placement Shares is required to be delivered by Agent under the Securities Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may
be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act), (i) the Company will notify the Agent promptly of the time when any subsequent
amendment to the Registration Statement, other than documents incorporated by reference, has been filed with the Commission and/or has
become effective or any subsequent supplement to the Prospectus has been filed and of any request by the Commission for any amendment
or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information, (ii) the Company will prepare and file with
the Commission, promptly upon the Agent’s request, any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus that,
in such Agent’s reasonable opinion, may be necessary or advisable in connection with the distribution of the Placement Shares by
the Agent (provided, however, that the failure of the Agent to make such request shall not relieve the Company of any obligation or liability
hereunder, or affect the Agent’s right to rely on the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement and
provided, further, that the only remedy the Agent shall have with respect to the failure to make such filing shall be to cease making
sales under this Agreement until such amendment or supplement is filed); (iii) the Company will not file any amendment or supplement
to the Registration Statement or Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares or a security convertible into the Placement Shares unless
a copy thereof has been submitted to Agent within a reasonable period of time before the filing and the Agent has not objected in writing
thereto within two (2) Business Days (provided, however, that the failure of the Agent to make such objection shall not relieve the Company
of any obligation or liability hereunder, or affect the Agent’s right to rely on the representations and warranties made by the
Company in this Agreement and the Company has no obligation to provide the Agent any advance copy of such filing or to provide the Agent
an opportunity to object to such filing if such filing does not name the Agent and does not relate to the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, and provided, further, that the only remedy the Agent shall have with respect to the failure by the Company to provide
the Agent with such copy shall be to cease making sales under this Agreement) and the Company will furnish to the Agent at the time of
filing thereof a copy of any document that upon filing is deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement or Prospectus,
except for those documents available via EDGAR; and (iv) the Company will cause each amendment or supplement to the Prospectus to be
filed with the Commission as required pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act or, in the case of any

based on the Company’s reasonable opinion or reasonable objections, shall be made exclusively by the Company).

 

(b)
Notice of Commission Stop Orders. The Company will advise the Agent, promptly after it receives notice or obtains knowledge thereof,
of the issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement
or any order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus, of the suspension of the qualification of the Placement Shares for offering
or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for any such purpose or of any request by the Commission
for amending or supplementing of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus; and it will promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts
to prevent the issuance of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus or suspending any such qualification
of the Placement Shares or to obtain its withdrawal if such a stop order or other order should be issued. The Company will advise the
Agent promptly after it receives any request by the Commission for any amendments to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplements
to the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or for additional information related to the offering of the Placement Shares
or for additional information related to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

(c)
Delivery of Prospectus; Subsequent Changes. During any period in which a Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares is required
to be delivered by the Agent under the Securities Act with respect to the offer and sale of the Placement Shares (including in circumstances
where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act), the Company will use best efforts to comply in
all material respects with all requirements imposed upon it by the Securities Act, as from time to time in force, and to file on or before
their respective due dates all reports and any definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed by the Company with the
Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, 15(d) or any other provision of or under the Exchange Act. If the Company has omitted
any information from the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430B under the Securities Act, it will use its best efforts to comply
with the provisions of and make all requisite filings with the Commission pursuant to said Rule 430B and to notify the Agent promptly
of all such filings. If during such period any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would
include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during such period it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration
Statement or Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act, the Company shall promptly notify Agent to suspend the offering of Placement
Shares during such period and the Company shall promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus (at the expense
of the Company) so as to correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance; provided, however, that the Company may delay
any such amendment or supplement if, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, it is in the best interests of the Company to do so.
Until such time as the Company shall have corrected such statement or omission or effected such compliance, the Company shall not notify
the Agent to resume the offering of Placement Shares.

 

(d)
Listing of Placement Shares. During any period in which the Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares is required to be delivered
by the Agent under the Securities Act with respect to the offer and sale of the Placement Shares, the Company will use its reasonable
best efforts to cause the Placement Shares to be listed on the Exchange.

 

(e)
Delivery of Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company will furnish to the Agent and its counsel (at the expense of the
Company) copies of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (including all documents incorporated by reference therein) and all amendments
and supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus that are filed with the Commission during any period in which a Prospectus
relating to the Placement Shares is required to be delivered under the Securities Act (including all documents filed with the Commission
during such period that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein), in each case as soon as reasonably practicable and in such
quantities as the Agent may from time to time reasonably request and, at the Agent’s request, will also furnish copies of the Prospectus
to each exchange or market on which sales of the Placement Shares may be made; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required
to furnish any document (other than the Prospectus) to the Agent to the extent such document is available on EDGAR.

 

(f)
Earnings Statement. To the extent not available on EDGAR, the Company will make generally available to its security holders as
soon as practicable, but in any event not later than 15 months after the end of the Company’s current fiscal quarter, an earnings
statement covering a 12-month period that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) and Rule 158 of the Securities Act.

 

(g)
Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the Net Proceeds as described in the Prospectus in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds.”

to this Agreement) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, warrants or any rights to purchase or acquire, Common
Stock during the period beginning on the third (3rd) Trading Day immediately prior to the date on which any Placement Notice
is delivered to Agent hereunder and ending on the third (3rd) Trading Day immediately following the final Settlement Date
with respect to Placement Shares sold pursuant to such Placement Notice (or, if the Placement Notice has been terminated or suspended
prior to the sale of all Placement Shares covered by a Placement Notice, the date of such suspension or termination); and will not directly
or indirectly in any other “at the market” equity transaction similar to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
involving an offer to sell, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to sell or otherwise dispose of any Common Stock (other than the
Placement Shares offered pursuant to this Agreement) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, warrants or any
rights to purchase or acquire, Common Stock prior to the termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that such restrictions will
not apply in connection with the Company’s issuance or sale of (i) Common Stock, options to purchase Common Stock or restricted
stock units or stock awards or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of options or vesting of restricted stock units, pursuant to any
employee or director stock option or benefits plan, stock ownership plan or dividend reinvestment plan (but not Common Stock subject
to a waiver to exceed plan limits in its dividend reinvestment plan) of the Company whether now in effect or hereafter implemented, (ii)
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of securities or the exercise of warrants, options or other rights in effect or outstanding, and
disclosed in filings by the Company available on EDGAR or otherwise in writing to the Agent, or (iii) Common Stock or securities
convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock as consideration for mergers, acquisitions, other business combinations or
strategic alliances occurring after the date of this Agreement which are not issued for capital raising purposes.

 

(i)
Change of Circumstances. The Company will, at any time during the pendency of a Placement Notice advise the Agent promptly after
it shall have received notice or obtained knowledge thereof, of any information or fact that would alter or affect in any material respect
any opinion, certificate, letter or other document required to be provided to the Agent pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(j)
Due Diligence Cooperation. Upon commencement of the offering of the Placement Shares under this Agreement (and upon the recommencement
of the offering of the Placement Shares under this Agreement following the termination of a suspension of sales hereunder lasting more
than 30 Trading Days), and at each Representation Date, the Company will conduct a due diligence session, in form and substance, reasonably
satisfactory to the Agent, which shall include representatives of management and the Accountant. The Company shall cooperate timely with
any reasonable due diligence request from or review conducted by the Agent or its agents from time to time in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, providing information and available documents and access to appropriate
corporate officers and the Company’s agents during regular business hours, and timely furnishing or causing to be furnished such
certificates and letters from the Company, its officers and its agents, as the Agent may reasonably request.

 

(k)
Required Filings Relating to Placement of Placement Shares. The Company agrees that on such dates as the Securities Act shall
require, the Company will (i) file a prospectus supplement with the Commission under the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act (each and every filing under Rule 424(b), a “Filing Date”), which prospectus supplement will set forth,
within the relevant period, the amount of Placement Shares sold through the Agent, the Net Proceeds to the Company and the compensation
payable by the Company to the Agent with respect to such Placement Shares, and (ii) deliver such number of copies of each such prospectus
supplement to each exchange or market on which such sales were effected as may be required by the rules or regulations of such exchange
or market.

(l)
Representation Dates; Certificate. Each time during the term of this Agreement that the Company:

 

(i)
amends or supplements (other than a prospectus supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Placement Shares)
the Registration Statement or the Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares by means of a post-effective amendment, sticker, or supplement
but not by means of incorporation of documents by reference into the Registration Statement or the Prospectus relating to the Placement
Shares;

 

(ii)
files an annual report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act (including any Form 10-K/A containing amended audited financial information
or a material amendment to the previously filed Form 10-K);

 

(iii)

files a current report on Form 8-K containing amended financial information (other than information “furnished” pursuant
to Items 2.02 or 7.01 of Form 8-K or to provide disclosure pursuant to Item 8.01 of Form 8-K relating to the reclassification of certain
properties as discontinued operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144) under the Exchange Act;
(each date of filing of one or more of the documents referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) shall be a “Representation Date”);
the Company shall furnish the Agent (but in the case of clause (iv) above only if the Agent reasonably determines that the information
contained in such Form 8-K is material) with a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 7(l). The requirement to provide
a certificate under this Section 7(l) shall be waived for any Representation Date occurring at a time a Suspension is in effect
or at which no Placement Notice is pending, which waiver shall continue until the earlier to occur of the date the Company delivers a
Placement Notice hereunder (which for such calendar quarter shall be considered a Representation Date) and the next occurring Representation
Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) upon delivery of the first Placement Notice hereunder and (ii) if the Company subsequently decides
to sell Placement Shares following a Representation Date when the Company relied on such waiver and did not provide the Agent with a
certificate under this Section 7(l), then before the Agent sells any Placement Shares, the Company shall provide the Agent with
a certificate in conformity with this Section 7(l) dated as of the date that the instructions for the sale of Placement Shares
are issued.

 

(m)
Legal Opinion. On the date of the initial filing of the Prospectus Supplement hereunder, the Company shall cause to be furnished
to the Agent a written opinion and a negative assurance letter of Baker McKenzie LLP (“Company Counsel”), or other
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. Thereafter, within five
(5) Trading Days of each Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit 7(l) for which no waiver is applicable, the Company shall cause to be furnished to the Agent a negative assurance letter
of Company Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent; provided that, in lieu of such negative assurance for
subsequent periodic filings under the Exchange Act, counsel may furnish the Agent with a letter (a “Reliance Letter”)
to the effect that the Agent may rely on the negative assurance letter previously delivered under this Section 7(m) to the same extent
as if it were dated the date of such letter (except that statements in such prior letter shall be deemed to relate to the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented as of the date of the Reliance Letter.

Comfort Letter. On the date of the initial filing of the Prospectus Supplement hereunder and within five (5) Trading Days after

the requirements set forth in this Section 7(n), provided that, if the Agent reasonably requests a Comfort Letter in connection with
a Representation Date pursuant to Section 7(l)(iii), upon such request, a Comfort Letter shall be deliverable to the Agent hereunder.
The Comfort Letter from the Company’s independent accountants shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent,
(i) confirming that they are an independent public accounting firm within the meaning of the Securities Act and the PCAOB, (ii) stating,
as of such date, the conclusions and findings of such firm with respect to the financial information and other matters ordinarily covered
by accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters in connection with registered public offerings (the first such letter,
the “Initial Comfort Letter”) and (iii) updating the Initial Comfort Letter with any information that would have been
included in the Initial Comfort Letter had it been given on such date and modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement
and the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented to the date of such letter.

 

(o)
Market Activities. The Company will not, directly or indirectly, (i) take any action designed to cause or result in, or that constitutes
or might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate
the sale or resale of Common Stock or (ii) sell, bid for, or purchase Common Stock, or pay anyone any compensation for soliciting purchases
of the Placement Shares other than the Agent.

 

(p)
Investment Company Act. The Company will conduct its affairs in such a manner so as to reasonably ensure that it will not be or
become, at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement, required to register as an “investment company,” as such
term is defined in the Investment Company Act.

 

(q)
No Offer to Sell. Other than an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus approved in advance by the Company and the Agent in its capacity
as agent hereunder, neither the Agent nor the Company (including its agents and representatives, other than the Agent in its capacity
as such) will make, use, prepare, authorize, approve or refer to any written communication (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities
Act), required to be filed with the Commission, that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy Placement Shares
hereunder.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company will maintain and keep accurate books and records reflecting its assets and maintain internal
accounting controls in a manner designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and including those policies
and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the Company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
the preparation of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, (iii) that receipts
and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with management’s and the Company’s directors’ authorization,
and (iv) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the
Company’s assets that could have a material effect on its financial statements. The Company will maintain such controls and other
procedures, including, without limitation, those required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the applicable regulations
thereunder that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits
under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules
and forms, including, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the
Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management,
including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to
it by others within the organization, particularly during the period in which such periodic reports are being prepared.

10.
Conditions to the Agent’s Obligations. The obligations of the Agent hereunder with respect to a Placement will be subject
to the continuing accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties made by the Company herein on the date hereof, on each
Representation Date, on each Applicable Time and on each Settlement Date, to the due performance in all material respects by the Company
of its obligations hereunder, to the completion by the Agent of a due diligence review satisfactory to it in its reasonable judgment,
and to the continuing reasonable satisfaction (or waiver by the Agent in its sole discretion) of the following additional conditions:

 

(a)
Registration Statement Effective. The Registration Statement shall have become effective and shall be available for the sale of
all Placement Shares contemplated to be issued by any Placement Notice.

 

(b)
No Material Notices. None of the following events shall have occurred and be continuing: (i) receipt by the Company or any of
its subsidiaries of any request for additional information from the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority during
the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the response to which would require any post-effective amendments or supplements
to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus; (ii) the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority
of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any order preventing the use of the Prospectus or the
initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) receipt by the Company of any notification from the Commission or any other federal
or state governmental authority with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Placement
Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; or (iv) the occurrence of any
event that makes any material statement made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any material document incorporated or
deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any materially untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading and, that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any materially untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading.

 

(c)
No Misstatement or Material Omission. The Agent shall not have advised the Company that the Registration Statement or Prospectus,
or any amendment or supplement thereto, contains an untrue statement of fact that in the Agent’s reasonable opinion is material,
or omits to state a fact that in the Agent’s reasonable opinion is material and is required to be stated therein or is necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading.

assigned to any of the Company’s securities (other than asset backed securities) by any rating organization or a public announcement
by any rating organization that it has under surveillance or review its rating of any of the Company’s securities (other than asset
backed securities), the effect of which, in the case of any such action by a rating organization described above, in the reasonable judgment
of the Agent (without relieving the Company of any obligation or liability it may otherwise have), is so material as to make it impracticable
or inadvisable to proceed with the offering of the Placement Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

 

(e)
Legal Opinion. The Agent shall have received the opinions of (i) Company Counsel required to be delivered pursuant to Section
7(m) on or before the date on which such delivery of such opinion is required pursuant to Section 7(m).

contemplated hereby. All such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents will be in compliance with the provisions hereof.

of issuance, or the Company shall have filed an application for listing of the Placement Shares on the Exchange at, or prior to, the
issuance of any Placement Notice.

 

(l)
FINRA. FINRA shall have raised no objection to the terms of this offering and the amount of compensation allowable or payable
to the Agent as described in the Prospectus.

No Termination Event. There shall not have occurred any event that would permit the Agent to terminate this Agreement pursuant
to Section 13(a).

 

If
any of the conditions specified in this Section 10 shall not have been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of
the opinions, letters, and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be reasonably satisfactory in form and

employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls the Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section
20 of the Exchange Act as follows:

 

    	24

     

    

 

(i)
against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, arising out of or based upon
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto),
or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any related Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of
a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading;

 

(ii)
against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, to the extent of the aggregate
amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened,
or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided
that (subject to Section 11(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company, which consent shall
not unreasonably be delayed or withheld; and

 

(iii)
against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel), incurred in investigating,
preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened,
or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent
that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above, provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply
to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement
or omission made solely in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Agent expressly for
use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or in any related Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or
any amendment or supplement thereto).

 

(b)
Agent Indemnification. Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors and each officer and director
of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in
the indemnity contained in Section 11(a), as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue
statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendments thereto) or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement
thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Agent and furnished to the Company in writing by the Agent

are the statements set forth in the second sentence of the seventh paragraph under the caption “Plan of Distribution”
in the Prospectus.

 

    	25

     

    

 

(c)
Procedure. Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 11 will, promptly after receipt
of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or
parties under this Section 11, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all
papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from (i) any liability that
it might have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 11 and (ii) any liability that it may have to any indemnified
party under the foregoing provision of this Section 11 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture
of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies
the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects
by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified
party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory
to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense,
the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses except as provided below and except
for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified
party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will
be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing
by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses
available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3)
a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying
party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified
party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to assume the
defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of which cases the
reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood
that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction,
be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction
at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. All such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying
party promptly after the indemnifying party receives a written invoice relating to the fees, disbursements and other charges in reasonable
detail. An indemnifying party will not, in any event, be liable for any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment
in any action or claim effected without its written consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of each indemnified
party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding relating
to the matters contemplated by this Section 11 (whether or not any indemnified party is a party thereto), unless such settlement,
compromise or consent (1) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation,
investigation, proceeding or claim and (2) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act
by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

 

(d)
Settlement Without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse
the indemnified party for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for which it is entitled to be reimbursed under this Section 11,
such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 11(a)(ii) effected
without its written consent if (1) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the
aforesaid request, (2) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such
settlement being entered into and (3) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such
request prior to the date of such settlement.

(e)
Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for
in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 11 is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable
from the Company or the Agent, the Company and the Agent will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages
(including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and, subject to the last sentence of this
Section 11(e), any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, but after deducting any contribution
received by the Company from persons other than the Agent, such as persons who control the Company within the meaning of the Securities
Act, officers of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and directors of the Company, who also may be liable for contribution)
to which the Company and the Agent may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the Company on the one hand and the Agent on the other hand. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the
Agent on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total Net Proceeds from the sale of the Placement Shares
(before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total compensation received by the Agent (before deducting expenses)
from the sale of Placement Shares on behalf of the Company. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not
permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Agent, on
the other hand, with respect to the statements or omission that resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action
in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations with respect to such offering. Such relative fault shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Agent, the intent of the parties and their relative
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Agent agree that
it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 11(e) were to be determined by pro rata allocation
or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid
or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense, or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred
to above in this Section 11(e) shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this Section 11(e), any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim to the extent consistent
with Section 11(c) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11(e), the Agent shall not be required
to contribute any amount in excess of the commissions received by it under this Agreement and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 11(e), any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning
of the Securities Act, and any officers, directors, partners, employees or agents of the Agent, will have the same rights to contribution
as that party, and each officer and director of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution
as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of
commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 11(e),
will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify will not relieve that party
or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 11(e) except
to the extent that the failure to so notify such other party materially prejudiced the substantive rights or defenses of the party from
whom contribution is sought. Except for a settlement entered into pursuant to the last sentence of Section 11(c) hereof, no party
will be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent if such consent is required pursuant
to Section 11(c) hereof.

 

12.
Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in Section 11 of
this Agreement and all representations and warranties of the Company herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive,
as of their respective dates, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent, any controlling persons, or the
Company (or any of their respective officers, directors or controlling persons), (ii) delivery and acceptance of the Placement Shares
and payment therefor or (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

 

    	27

     

    

 

13.
Termination.

 

(a)
The Agent may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, as hereinafter specified at any time (1) if there has been, since the
time of execution of this Agreement or since the date as of which information is given in the Prospectus, any change, or any development
or event involving a prospective change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the business, properties, earnings, results
of operations or prospects of the Company, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, which individually or in the aggregate,
in the sole judgment of the Agent is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to market the Placement Shares or to
enforce contracts for the sale of the Placement Shares, (2) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets
in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis
or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions,
in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Agent, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Placement
Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Placement Shares, (3) if trading in the Common Stock has been suspended or limited
by the Commission or the Exchange, or if trading generally on the Exchange has been suspended or limited, or minimum prices for trading
have been fixed on the Exchange, (4) if any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter
market shall have occurred and be continuing, (5) if a major disruption of securities settlements or clearance services in the United
States shall have occurred and be continuing, or (6) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either U.S. Federal or New York authorities.
Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 9 (Payment
of Expenses), Section 11 (Indemnification and Contribution), Section 12 (Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery),
Section 18 (Governing Law and Time; Waiver of Jury Trial) and Section 19 (Consent to Jurisdiction) hereof shall remain
in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. If the Agent elects to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section
13(a), the Agent shall provide the required notice as specified in Section 14 (Notices).

 

(b)
The Company shall have the right, by giving ten (10) days’ notice as hereinafter specified to terminate this Agreement in its sole
discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party
except that the provisions of Section 9 (Payment of Expenses), Section 11 (Indemnification and Contribution), Section
12 (Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery), Section 18 (Governing Law and Time; Waiver of Jury Trial) and Section
19 (Consent to Jurisdiction) hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

 

(c)
The Agent or the Company shall have the right, by giving ten (10) days’ notice to the other party to terminate this Agreement in
its sole discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any
other party except that the provisions of Section 9 (Payment of Expenses), Section 11 (Indemnification and Contribution),
Section 12 (Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery), Section 18 (Governing Law and Time; Waiver of Jury Trial)
and Section 19 (Consent to Jurisdiction) hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

 

(d)
Unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Section 13, this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the issuance and sale
of all of the Placement Shares through the Agent on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; provided that the provisions
of Section 9 (Payment of Expenses), Section 11 (Indemnification and Contribution), Section 12 (Representations and
Agreements to Survive Delivery), Section 18 (Governing Law and Time; Waiver of Jury Trial) and Section 19 (Consent to Jurisdiction)
hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

 

    	28

     

    

 

(e)
This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Sections 13(a), (b), (c), or
(d) above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties; provided, however, that any such termination by mutual agreement shall
in all cases be deemed to provide that Section 9 (Payment of Expenses), Section 11 (Indemnification and Contribution),
Section 12 (Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery), Section 18 (Governing Law and Time; Waiver of Jury Trial)
and Section 19 (Consent to Jurisdiction) hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

 

(f)
Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided, however, that such
termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by the Agent or the Company, as
the case may be. If such termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date for any sale of Placement Shares, such Placement Shares
shall settle in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the obligations of the Company, including with respect to compensation
of the Agent, in connection with such settlement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the termination.

it waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against the Agent for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach
of fiduciary duty in connection with the sale of Placement Shares under this Agreement and agrees that the Agent shall not have any liability
(whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to it in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting
