Each Investor Party that elects to participate in such Transfer shall be entitled to sell in the contemplated Transfer, at the same price
and on the same terms as the Seller is Transferring Corporation Securities, subject to the provisions hereof, a number of shares of Corporation
Securities equal to (i) the quotient determined by dividing (A) the percentage of shares of Common Stock held by such Investor
Party on a Fully Diluted Basis by (B) the aggregate percentage of shares of Common Stock owned by the Seller, all participating
Investor Parties and all other selling stockholders on a Fully Diluted Basis, then multiplied by (ii) the number of Corporation
Securities to be Transferred in the contemplated transaction on a Fully Diluted Basis.

 

    7

     

    

 

(c)           The

Corporation on a Fully Diluted Basis; and (iii) the proposed transferee agrees to be bound to this Agreement by executing a Joinder
hereto. However, the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply to the Transfer by an Investor Party of any Corporation

Joinder hereto), or (B) in accordance with the Investor Party’s rights under Section 2.1.

 

(c)          The

Securities in order to implement the restrictions on transfer established in this Section 2.4.

 

(d)           The
provisions of this Section 2.4 will not apply to and will terminate immediately before the earlier of (i) the initial public offering
and/or listing on a recognized international stock exchange of Corporation Securities and (ii) a Sale of the Corporation.

REGISTRATION
RIGHTS

 

4.1           Demand
Registration.

 

(a)           Subject
to the conditions of this Section 4.1, if the Corporation shall receive at any time after one hundred eighty (180) days after the
effective date of an initial public offering of the Common Stock, a written request from Investor Parties holding a majority of the Common
Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis held by all Investor Parties that the Corporation file a registration statement under the Securities Act
covering the registration of Registrable Securities held by the Investor Parties with an anticipated aggregate offering price (net of
underwriting discounts and commissions) of at least US$10,000,000, then the Corporation shall, subject to the limitations of this Section
4.1, use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable
Securities that the Investor Parties request to be registered in a written request. The Corporation shall provide, upon request, a copy
of its current shareholder register to any Investor requesting the same.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Corporation shall not be required to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 4.1:

 

(i)           in
any particular jurisdiction in which the Corporation would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting
such registration, unless the Corporation is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required under the Securities
Act; or

 

(ii)          after
the Corporation has effected three (3) registrations pursuant to this Section 4.1, and such registrations have been declared or
ordered effective; or

 

(iii)         during
the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Corporation’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of and
ending on a date one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of a Corporation- initiated registration subject to Section
4.2 below, provided that the Corporation is actively employing in good faith all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration
statement to become effective; or

 

(iv)         if
the Corporation shall furnish to Investor Parties a certificate signed by the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer or
Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Corporation
and its stockholders for such registration statement to be effected at such time, in which event the Corporation shall have the
right to defer such filing for a period of not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of the request of the Investor Parties,
provided that such right shall be exercised by the Corporation not more than once in any twelve (12)-month period and provided
further that the Corporation shall not register any securities for the account of itself or any other stockholder during such sixty
(60) day period (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities of participants in a Corporation stock plan, a
registration relating to a corporate reorganization or transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act, a registration on any form
that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering
the sale of the Registrable Securities, or a registration in which the only Common Stock being registered is Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered).

 

    12 

     

    

 

4.2           Piggyback
Registration.

 

(a)           Whenever
the Corporation proposes to register any of its securities for an underwritten offering under the Securities Act in which (i) any Corporation
Securities owned beneficially or of record by I-Pulse or any of its Affiliates or any Investor are included in the registration statement
for such offering as securities being offered by a selling stockholder or, (ii) at any time one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective
date of the first registration statement filed by the Corporation covering an underwritten offering of any of its securities to the general
public, Corporation Securities of any other holder are included in the registration statement for such offering as securities being offered
by a selling stockholder (each a “Piggyback Registration”), the Corporation shall give prompt written notice to all
holders of Registrable Securities of the proposed offering at least thirty (30) days before the initial filing with the Commission of
such registration statement, and offer to include in such filing such Registrable Securities as any such holder may request. Each such
holder of Registrable Securities desiring to have Registrable Securities registered under this Section 4.2 shall advise the Corporation
in writing within twenty (20) days after the date of receipt of such notice from the Corporation, setting forth the amount of such Registrable
Securities for which registration is requested. Subject to Section 4.2(b), the Corporation shall thereupon include in such filing
the number of Registrable Securities for which registration is so requested, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect
registration under the Securities Act of such Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Corporation
shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether
or not any holder of Registrable Securities has elected to include securities in such registration.

 

(b)           If
a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten registration and the managing underwriters advise the Corporation in writing that in their
opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number that can be sold in an orderly manner
in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Corporation, the Corporation shall include in such registration: (i) first, the
securities the Corporation proposes to sell, if any, and (ii) second, the Registrable Securities and any other securities requested to
be included in such registration, pro rata among the holders of such Registrable Securities and such other parties (including, without
limitation, I-Pulse and the Ivanhoe Parties) on the basis of the number of securities owned by each such holder.

 

    13 

     

    

 

4.3           Lock-Up.

 

(a)           Each
Investor Party holding Registrable Securities shall not sell or otherwise transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the
purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, of any Corporation Securities
held by such holder (other than those included in the registration) during the period (the “Lock-up Period”)
commencing on the effective date of the registration statement for an initial public offering of Corporation Securities and ending
on the date specified by the Corporation or the managing underwriter of such initial public offering (it being understood that the
Lock-up Period shall not in any event exceed 180 days), provided that all (x) officers and directors of the Corporation and
(y) holders (other than officers and directors of the Corporation) of at least one percent (1%) of any class of Corporation
Securities covered by the applicable registration statement (on a Fully Diluted Basis) are bound by or have entered into similar
agreements. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, this Section 4.3(a) shall not apply to any share of Common Stock
acquired by an Investor through its purchase of Bundles (including any such share acquired upon any conversion of IVNE Notes or
exchange of I-Pulse Notes), provided that the Acquisition Price of such share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than 90%
(or, if such initial public offering does not occur by February 28, 2022, 80%) of the gross price per share at which Common Stock is
sold in such initial public offering. The obligations described in this Section 4.3 shall not apply to a registration
relating solely to a transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Corporation may impose
stop-transfer instructions and may stamp each such certificate with the second legend set forth in Section 3.1 with respect
to the shares of Corporation Securities subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of the Lock-up Period. Each holder of
Registrable Securities agrees to execute a market standoff agreement with said underwriters in customary form consistent with the
provisions of this Section 4.3(a).

 

(b)           The
Investor Parties shall have the right to receive and be subject to the rights, benefits, terms and conditions of any lock-up covenants
or waivers in respect of an initial public offering or subsequent registration statement of the Corporation provided to any other unaffiliated
third party investor in connection with any subsequent Equity Financing, if such rights, benefits, terms and conditions are more favorable
in the aggregate than the rights, benefits, terms and conditions of the lock-up covenants or waivers then applicable under this Agreement
to the Investor Parties. Promptly after entering into such a covenant or waiver, the Corporation shall provide the Investor Parties with
a copy of such covenant or waiver thereof (in redacted form). In order to exercise such right, Investor Parties then holding a majority
of the Registrable Securities shall be required to notify the Corporation in writing, within 30 days after then receipt of such copy,
that they want to amend Section 4.3(a) of this Agreement to replace the provisions of such Section 4.3(a) with the rights, benefits, terms
and conditions contained in such covenant or waiver, whereupon the Corporation and the Investor Parties shall forthwith enter into an
amendment to this Agreement providing the Investor Parties with such covenant or waiver.

 

4.4           Registration
Procedures. Whenever holders of Registrable Securities have requested that any Registrable Securities be registered as permitted by
and pursuant to this Agreement, the Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such
Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Corporation shall:

 

(a)           prepare
and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use commercially reasonable efforts
to cause such registration statement to become effective and remain effective for a minimum of ninety (90) days;

 

    14 

    	 

    

 

(b)           furnish
to each seller of Registrable Securities such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto,
the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as such seller
may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller;

 

(c)           use
commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such
jurisdictions as any seller of Registrable Securities reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably
necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by
such seller (provided that the Corporation shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it
would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph, (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdictions, (iii)
consent to general service of process in each such jurisdiction or (iv) undertake such actions in any jurisdiction other than the states
of the United States of America and the District of Columbia);

 

(d)           notify
each seller of such Registrable Securities, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities
Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement
of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, at the request of any such seller,
the Corporation shall prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of such Registrable
Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading; provided, however, that each seller shall, immediately upon receipt of any notice from the Corporation
of the happening of any event of the kind described in this paragraph (d), forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities
pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until the seller has received copies of the supplement or
amendment prepared in accordance with this paragraph (d), and, if so directed by the Corporation, each seller shall deliver to the Corporation
all copies, other than permanent file copies then in the seller’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities
current at the time of receipt of such notice;

 

(e)           use
its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar
securities issued by the Corporation are then listed, or, if not so listed, to be listed on an exchange or quoted on an electronic inter-dealer
quotation system on which the securities of issuers engaging in businesses similar to that of the Corporation, as determined by the Board,
are listed or quoted;

 

(f)           provide
a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

 

(g)           enter
into an underwriting agreement in form reasonably necessary to effect the offer and sale of the securities being offered under the registration
statement, provided, such underwriting agreement contains reasonable and customary provisions and, provided, further, that each holder
of Registrable Securities participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement;

 

    15 

    	 

    

 

(h)           make
available for inspection by any seller of Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration
statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Corporation, and cause the Corporation’s officers, directors, employees and independent
accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection
with such registration statement;

 

(i)           otherwise
use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its
security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning
with the first day of the Corporation’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the registration statement, which
earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act (which may be achieved by, among other things,
compliance with the conditions of Rule 158 thereunder);

 

(j)           permit
any holder of Registrable Securities which holder, in the Corporation’s judgment, might be deemed to be an underwriter or a controlling
Person of the Corporation, to participate in the preparation of such registration or comparable statement and to require the insertion
therein of material, furnished to the Corporation in writing, which in the reasonable judgment of such holder and its counsel should be
included; and

 

(k)           if
the registration statement has not been effective for the minimum time period set forth in the last clause of Section 4.4(a), in
the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or preventing
the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Common Stock included in such registration statement for sale
in any jurisdiction, promptly use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order. If any such registration or
comparable statement refers to any holder by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Corporation and if in its sole and
exclusive judgment such holder is or might be deemed to be a controlling Person of the Corporation, such holder shall have the right to
require (i) to the extent permitted by law, the insertion therein of language, in form and substance satisfactory to such holder and presented
to the Corporation in writing, to the effect that the holding by such holder of such securities is not to be construed as a recommendation
by such holder of the investment quality of the Corporation’s securities covered thereby and that such holding does not imply that
such holder shall assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the Corporation, and (ii) in the event that such reference to
such holder by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar federal statute then in force, the deletion of the
reference to such holder; provided, that such holder shall furnish to the Corporation an opinion of counsel to such effect, which
opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation.

 

4.5           Expenses.
All expenses incident to the Corporation’s performance of or compliance with this Article 4, including without
limitation all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, printing expenses,
messenger and delivery expenses, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Corporation and all independent certified public
accountants and other Persons retained by the Corporation, and the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to the selling
holders of Registrable Securities (such counsel fees not to exceed US$20,000) shall be borne by the Corporation. All underwriting
discounts and commissions relating to Registrable Securities shall be borne by the sellers of the securities sold pursuant to the
registration.

 

    16 

    	 

    

 

4.6           Indemnification.

 

(a)           The
Corporation shall indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each
Person who controls such holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus
or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or other violation by the Corporation of the Securities Act or other laws relating
to such registration, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Corporation
by such holder expressly for use therein or by such holder’s failure to deliver a copy of the registration statement or prospectus
or any amendments or supplements thereto after the Corporation has furnished such holder with a sufficient number of copies of the same.
In connection with an underwritten offering, the Corporation shall indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors and each
Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to
the indemnification of the holders of Registrable Securities. The obligations of the Corporation under this Section 4.6(a) shall
not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense if such settlement is affected without
the consent of the Corporation (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

(b)           In
connection with any registration statement in which a holder of Registrable Securities is participating pursuant to the provisions of
this Agreement, each such holder shall severally indemnify the Corporation, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the
Corporation (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any
untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information
furnished in writing to the Corporation by such holder expressly for use herein, provided that in no event shall the indemnity provided
for in this Section 4.6(b) exceed the gross proceeds from the offering received by the indemnifying holder.

 

(c)           Any
Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with
respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of
interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to
assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the
indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but
such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense
of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such
indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may
exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim.

 

    17 

    	 

    

 

(d)           If
the indemnification provided for in this Section 4.6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified
party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party thereunder, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying
party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the violation(s) that resulted in such loss, claim,
damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified
ally shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue (or alleged untrue) statement of a
material fact or the omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party
or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a holder of Registrable Securities hereunder exceed
the net proceeds from the offering received by such holder.

 

(e)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into
in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting
agreement shall control; provided, that such provisions in the underwriting agreement are equally applicable to each other holder
of Corporation Securities participating in the registration statement.

 

4.7           Rule
144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may from time
to time permit the sale of Registrable Securities to the public without registration after the effective date that the Corporation becomes
subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Corporation agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

 

(a)           make
and keep public information available, as those terms are defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective
date that the Corporation becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

 

(b)           file
with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Corporation under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act; and

 

(c)           so
long as a holder owns any Registrable Securities, upon request, (i) provide to such holder a written statement by the Corporation as
to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of
the first registration statement filed by the Corporation for an offering of its securities to the general public), and of the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), (ii) a copy of the
most recent annual, quarterly and current reports of the Corporation and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Corporation
and other information in the possession of or reasonably obtainable by the Corporation as a holder of Registrable Securities may
reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a holder to sell any such securities
without registration.

 

    18 

    	 

    

 

4.8           Termination
of Registration Rights. All registration rights granted under this Article 4 will terminate upon the earlier of (a) the seventh
(7th) anniversary of the consummation of the initial underwritten public offering of the Corporation Securities or (b) when
each holder has sold all of its Registrable Securities (other than in transfers made in accordance with Section 5.11 of this Agreement).

 

4.9           Requirements
for Underwritten Offerings. No Person may participate in any registration hereunder that is underwritten unless such Person (a) agrees
to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled
hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting
agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; provided, that no holder of Registrable
Securities included in any underwritten registration shall be required to make any representations or warranties to the Corporation or
the underwriters other than representations and warranties regarding such holder and such holder’s intended method of distribution.

 

4.10           Registration
in Other Jurisdictions. In the event the Corporation registers or lists Corporation Securities for public trading, or engages in a
public distribution of Corporation Securities under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States, it shall provide the holders
of Registrable Securities with substantially the same rights to registration under the laws of such jurisdiction, and take such other
steps as are reasonably necessary or desirable to enable such holders to publicly sell or participate in any public distribution of their
Registrable Securities to the same extent as available to such holders pursuant to this Article 4. The Corporation and the holders
of Registrable Securities shall agree to such reasonable modifications to this Article 4 as are necessary to effectuate the purposes
of this Section 4.10.

Article 2

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

 

2.1            Shelf
Registration.

 

(a)            If
a Qualifying IVNE IPO occurs prior to the Maturity Date (as defined in the IVNE Notes), then the Company shall use its best efforts to
prepare and file with the Commission, during the Registration Filing Period, a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415
under the Securities Act on the then applicable form or any successor form (a “Shelf Registration Statement”) relating
to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities held by the Investors from time to time hereunder in accordance with the methods of distribution
elected by the Investors, and the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under
the Securities Act as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. Any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) shall
hereinafter be referred to as a “Shelf Registration.”

 

(b)            Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that (i) the Registration Filing Period is determined by reference to clause
(b) of the definition thereof and (ii) based on written advice of its counsel, the Company determines that, as of the last day
of the Lock-up Period, all Registrable Securities shall have ceased to be such pursuant to the second sentence of the definition of “Registrable
Securities”, the Company shall not be required to file the Shelf Registration Statement and this Agreement shall terminate and be
of no further force or effect.

 

2.2            Continued
Effectiveness. Subject to Section 2.3(c), the Company shall use its best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously
effective under the Securities Act in order to permit the prospectus forming part of the Shelf Registration Statement to be usable by
a seller until the earlier of: (i) the date as of which all Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration
Statement or another registration statement filed under the Securities Act; and (ii) the first date as of which the Investors no
longer hold any Registrable Securities (such period of effectiveness, the “Shelf Period”). All registration rights
granted under this Article 2 will terminate upon the expiration of the Shelf Period.

 

    4 

     

    

 

2.3            Registration
Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration Statement filed with the Commission and kept effective by the Company pursuant
to Sections 2.1 and 2.2, the Company shall:

 

(a)            furnish
to each seller of Registrable Securities such number of copies of such Shelf Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto,
the prospectus included in such Shelf Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as such
seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller;

 

(b)            use
best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as
any seller of Registrable Securities reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or
advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller
(provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise
be required to qualify but for this subparagraph, (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdictions, (iii) consent to
general service of process in each such jurisdiction or (iv) undertake such actions in any jurisdiction other than the states of
the United States of America and the District of Columbia);

 

(c)            notify
each seller of Registrable Securities, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities
Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement
of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, at the request of any such seller,
the Company shall supplement or amend such Shelf Registration Statement (if required by the registration form used by the Company for
such Shelf Registration Statement, by the instructions applicable to such registration form or by the Securities Act or the rules or
regulations promulgated thereunder) and prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers
of Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that each seller shall, immediately upon receipt of any
notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in this paragraph (c), forthwith discontinue disposition of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement until (i) the Commission has declared any post-effective amendment
to the Shelf Registration Statement effective, if necessary, and (ii) the seller has received copies of the supplement or amendment
of the prospectus prepared in accordance with this paragraph (c), and, if so directed by the Company, each seller shall deliver to the
Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in the seller’s possession, of the prospectus covering Registrable Securities
current at the time of receipt of such notice;

 

(d)            use
its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed,
or, if not so listed, to be listed on an exchange or quoted on an electronic inter-dealer quotation system on which the securities of
issuers engaging in businesses similar to that of the Company, as determined by the Board, are listed or quoted;

 

(e)            provide
a transfer agent and registrar for the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement;

 

    5 

     

    

 

(f)            make
available for inspection by any seller of Registrable Securities and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller,
all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers,
directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, attorney, accountant
or agent in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement;

 

(g)            permit
any holder of Registrable Securities which holder, in the Company’s judgment, might be deemed to be an underwriter or a controlling
Person of the Company, to participate in the preparation of the Shelf Registration Statement and to require the insertion therein of material,
furnished to the Company in writing, which in the reasonable judgment of such holder and its counsel should be included therein;

 

(h)            to
the extent the Company is eligible under the relevant provisions of Rule 430B under the Securities Act, include in the Shelf Registration
Statement such disclosures as may be required by Rule 430B under the Securities Act (referring to the unnamed selling security holders
in a generic manner) in order to ensure that any Investor may be added to the Shelf Registration Statement at a later time through the
filing of a Prospectus supplement rather than a post-effective amendment; and

 

(i)            if
the Shelf Registration Statement has not been effective for the Shelf Period, in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending
the qualification of any Common Stock included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, promptly use best efforts
to obtain the withdrawal of such order. If any holder is identified in the Shelf Registration Statement as a holder of any securities
of the Company and if in its sole and exclusive judgment such holder is or might be deemed to be a controlling Person of the Company,
such holder shall have the right to require (i) to the extent permitted by law, the insertion therein of language, in form and substance
satisfactory to such holder and presented to the Company in writing, to the effect that the holding by such holder of such securities
is not to be construed as a recommendation by such holder of the investment quality of the Company’s securities covered thereby
and that such holding does not imply that such holder shall assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the Company, and (ii) in
the event that such reference to such holder by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar federal statute
then in force, the deletion of the reference to such holder; provided, that such holder shall furnish to the Company an opinion
of counsel to such effect, which opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

 

2.4            Company
Information Requests. The Company may require any Investor or Permitted Transferee to furnish to the Company such information regarding
the distribution of Registrable Securities and such other information relating to such Investor or Permitted Transferee and its ownership
of Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing, and the
Company may exclude from the Shelf Registration the Registrable Securities of each Investor or Permitted Transferee who unreasonably fails
to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. Each Investor and Permitted Transferee shall furnish
such information to the Company and cooperate with the Company as reasonably necessary to enable the Company to comply with the provisions
of this Agreement.

 

    6 

     

    

 

2.5            Expenses.
All expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Article 2, including without limitation
all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, printing expenses, messenger and delivery
expenses, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and all independent certified public accountants and other Persons retained
by the Company, and the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to the Investors holding Registrable Securities (such counsel fees
not to exceed US$20,000) shall be borne by the Company. Any underwriting discounts and commissions relating to Registrable Securities
shall be borne by the sellers of the Registrable Securities sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement.

 

2.6            Indemnification.

 

(a)            The
Company shall indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each Person
who controls such holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses caused
by (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Shelf Registration Statement or any prospectus or
preliminary prospectus included therein, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (ii) any other violation by the
Company of the Securities Act or other laws relating to the Shelf Registration, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained
in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such holder expressly for use therein or by such holder’s failure to deliver
a copy of the Shelf Registration Statement or any prospectus or preliminary prospectus included therein or any amendments or supplements
thereto after the Company has furnished such holder with a sufficient number of copies of the same. The obligations of the Company under
this Section 2.6(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense
if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

(b)            Each
holder of Registrable Securities shall severally indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company
(within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue or
alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Shelf Registration Statement or any prospectus or preliminary prospectus included
therein or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained
in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such holder expressly for use herein, provided that in no event shall the indemnity
provided for in this Section 2.6(b) exceed the gross proceeds from the offering received by the indemnifying holder.

 

(c)            Any
Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect
to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between
such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of
such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not
be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay
the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless
in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such
indemnified parties with respect to such claim.

 

    7 

     

    

 

(d)            If
the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying
such indemnified party thereunder, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the violation(s) that resulted
in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying
party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue (or alleged
untrue) statement of a material fact or the omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact relates to information supplied by
the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a holder of Registrable
Securities hereunder exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such holder.

 

2.7            Lock-Up.

 

(a)            Each
Investor holding Registrable Securities (other than any such Investor that is subject to a lock-up agreement contained in a stockholder
or other agreement between such Investor and the Company) shall not sell or otherwise transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option
for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, of any Company Securities
held by such holder during the period (the “Lock-up Period”) commencing on the effective date of the registration statement
for a Qualifying IVNE IPO and ending on the date specified by the Company or the managing underwriter of such Qualifying IVNE IPO (it
being understood that the Lock-up Period shall not in any event exceed 180 days). Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence,
this Section 2.7(a) shall not apply to any share of Common Stock acquired by an Investor through its purchase of Bundles
(including any such share acquired upon any conversion of IVNE Notes or exchange of I-Pulse Notes), provided that the Acquisition
Price of such share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than 90% (or, if the Qualifying IVNE IPO does not occur by February 28,
2022, 80%) of the gross price per share at which Common Stock is sold in the Qualifying IVNE IPO. The obligations described in this Section 2.7
shall not apply to a registration relating solely to a transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future.
The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions and may stamp each certificate or other document representing Company Securities with
the legend set forth in Section 2.7(b) or a substantially similar legend with respect to Company Securities subject to
the foregoing restriction until the end of the Lock-up Period. Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees to execute a market standoff
agreement with said underwriters in customary form consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.7.

 

    8 

     

    

 

(b)            The
Company may stamp each certificate or other document representing Company Securities with the following legend or a substantially similar
legend with respect to Company Securities subject to the restriction set forth in Section 2.7(a) until the end of the
Lock-up Period:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY
THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS ON TRANSFER SPECIFIED IN THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT DATED ON OR ABOUT AUGUST 3,
2021, BY AND AMONG THE COMPANY AND THE OTHER PARTIES THERETO, AS THE SAME MAY BE AMENDED, RESTATED OR OTHERWISE MODIFIED FROM TIME
TO TIME. UPON WRITTEN REQUEST, A COPY OF SUCH CONDITIONS WILL BE FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF WITHOUT CHARGE.”

 

(c)            The
Company and each Investor that is subject to a lock-up agreement contained in a stockholder or other agreement between such Investor and
the Company hereby acknowledge and agree that all Company Securities held by such Investor shall be subject to the lock up agreements
contained in such other agreement and not this Section 2.7.

 

(d)            For
the avoidance of doubt, the Company further acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the fact that the I-Pulse Notes may be exchanged
into Exchange Shares at any time from and after the closing date of a Qualifying IVNE IPO and prior to the maturity date of the I-Pulse
Notes, any lock-up period specified pursuant to Section 2.7(a) shall commence upon the effective date of the registration statement
for a Qualifying IVNE IPO regardless of whether the I-Pulse Notes are exchanged at such time or thereafter.

 

2.8            Termination
and Effective Termination. This Agreement shall terminate either (a) in accordance with Section 2.1(b) or (b) upon
the date on which the Investors no longer hold any Registrable Securities, except in each case for the provisions of Section 2.6,
which shall survive any such termination of this Agreement. No termination under this Agreement shall relieve any Person of liability
for breach of Section 2.5 for expenses incurred prior to termination.

3.11            Assignment
of Rights.

 

The rights of the Investors
hereunder may be assigned (but only with all related obligations as set forth below) in connection with a transfer of Company Securities
to a Permitted Transferee of the Investor; provided, however, that (i) the transferor shall, within ten (10) days

with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; and (ii) such transferee acquired such Registrable Securities
in a transaction that complied with the Subscription Agreement and shall agree to be subject to all applicable restrictions set forth
in the Subscription Agreement and this Agreement. Without prejudice to any other or similar conditions imposed hereunder with respect
to any such transfer, no assignment permitted under the terms of this Section 3.11 will be effective unless the transferee to which
the assignment is being made, if not an Investor, has delivered to the Company an executed copy of the Joinder. For the avoidance of doubt,
no assignment, transfer or other disposition of Company Securities may be made by any Investor (other than any Investor that is subject
to a lock-up agreement contained in a stockholder or other agreement between such Investor and the Company) unless the transferee agrees
in writing to be bound by the provisions of Section 2.7.

3.15            Remedies.
Each party, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Agreement. All parties hereto agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for
any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action
for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

    11

agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such courts. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably
