	 	2.	 Registration Under the 1933 Act. 

(a) Exchange Offer Registration. The Company shall (i) use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC on or prior to the
60th day after the Closing Date an Exchange Offer Registration Statement covering the offer by the Company to the Holders to exchange all of the Registrable Securities for a like aggregate principal amount of Exchange Securities, (ii) use its
commercially reasonable efforts 

  
 4 

 
to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be declared or become effective with the SEC no later than the 120th day after the Closing Date, (iii) use its commercially reasonable
efforts to cause such Registration Statement to remain effective until the closing of the Exchange Offer, and (iv) use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Exchange Offer no later than 45 days after the effective date of
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly commence the Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Exchange Offer to enable each Holder eligible and
electing to exchange Registrable Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 under the 1933 Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of such
Holder’s business, and has no arrangements or understandings with any Person to participate in the Exchange Offer for the purpose of distributing such Exchange Securities) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without
any limitations or restrictions under the 1933 Act or under the securities or blue sky laws of the states of the United States. 
 In
connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company shall: 
 (i) promptly mail or otherwise transmit, in compliance with the
applicable procedures of the Depositary for such Registrable Securities, to each Holder a copy of the Prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents;

 (ii) keep the Exchange Offer open for not less than 20 Business Days (or longer if required by applicable law) after the
date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders and, during the Exchange Offer, offer to all Holders who are legally eligible to participate in the Exchange Offer the opportunity to exchange their Registrable Securities for Exchange Securities; 

(iii) use the services of the Depositary for the Exchange Offer; 

(iv) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Registrable Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York City time,
on the last Business Day on which the Exchange Offer shall remain open, by sending to the institution and at the address specified in the Prospectus, the related letter of transmittal, or related documents a facsimile transmission, or letter,
setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of Registrable Securities delivered for exchange, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Subordinated Notes exchanged, and otherwise complying with the
applicable procedures of the Depositary; 
 (v) notify each Holder that any Registrable Security not tendered will remain
outstanding and continue to accrue interest, but will not retain any rights under this Agreement (except in the case of Participating Broker-Dealers as provided herein); and 

(vi) otherwise comply in all material respects with all applicable laws relating to the Exchange Offer. 

The Exchange Securities shall be issued under the Indenture, which shall be qualified under the TIA. The Indenture shall provide that the
Exchange Securities and the Subordinated Notes shall vote and consent together on all matters (as to which such Exchange Securities and Subordinated Notes may vote or consent) as a single class and shall constitute a single series of debt securities
issued under the Indenture. 

  
 5 

 As soon as reasonably practicable after the closing of the Exchange Offer, the Company
shall: 
 (i) accept for exchange all Registrable Securities duly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange
Offer in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and the letter of transmittal which is an exhibit thereto; 

(ii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation all Registrable Securities so accepted for exchange by
the Company; and 
 (iii) cause the Trustee promptly to authenticate and deliver Exchange Securities to each Holder of
Registrable Securities so accepted for exchange equal in principal amount to the principal amount of the Registrable Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange. 

For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any provision herein purporting to require physical mailing, delivery or acceptance of any
document or instrument, the Company may conduct the Exchange Offer exclusively through the automated tender offer program of the Depositary, provided that this provision shall apply only to Registrable Securities held in the form of beneficial
interests in a global note deposited with (or held by a custodian for) The Depository Trust Company. 
 Interest on each Exchange Security
will accrue from the last date on which interest was paid or duly provided for on the Subordinated Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for on such Subordinated Notes, from the Interest Accrual
Date. The Exchange Offer shall not be subject to any conditions, other than (i) that the Exchange Offer, or the making of any exchange by a Holder, does not violate any applicable law or any applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC;
(ii) that no action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened in any court or by or before any governmental agency with respect to the Exchange Offer which, in the Company’s judgment, would reasonably be expected to impair the
ability of the Company to proceed with the Exchange Offer; and (iii) that the Holders tender the Registrable Securities to the Company in accordance with the Exchange Offer. Each Holder of Registrable Securities (other than Participating
Broker-Dealers) who wishes to exchange such Registrable Securities for Exchange Securities in the Exchange Offer will be required to represent that (A) it is not an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act) of the Company,
(B) any Exchange Securities to be received by it will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (C) it has no arrangement with any Person to participate in the distribution (within the meaning of the 1933 Act) of the Exchange
Securities, and (D) it is not acting on behalf of any Person who could not truthfully make the statements set forth in clauses (A), (B), and (C) immediately above, and shall be required to make such other representations as may be
reasonably necessary under applicable SEC rules, regulations, or interpretations to render the use of Form S-4 or another appropriate form under the 1933 Act available. 

(b) Shelf Registration. If (i) because of any change in law or applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the SEC, the Company
is not permitted to effect the Exchange Offer as contemplated by Section 2(a) hereof; (ii) for any other reason (A) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not declared effective within 120 days following the Closing Date, or
(B) the Exchange Offer is not consummated within 45 days after effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (provided that if the Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall become effective after such 120-day period or if the
Exchange Offer shall be consummated after such 45-day period, then the Company’s obligations under this clause (ii) arising from the failure of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be
declared effective within such 120-day period or the failure of the Exchange Offer to be consummated within such 45-day period, respectively, shall terminate); or (iii) any Holder is not eligible to participate in the Exchange Offer or
validly elects to participate in the Exchange Offer but does not receive Exchange Securities which are freely tradeable without any limitations or restrictions under the 1933 Act, then the Company shall, at its cost: 

(A) use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC on or prior to (1) the 180th day after the Closing Date or (2)
the 60th day after any such filing obligation arises, whichever is later, a Shelf Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities by the Holders from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution
elected by the Majority Holders of such Registrable Securities and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement; 

  
 6 

 (B) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Shelf Registration
Statement to become effective with the SEC as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than (1) the 225th day after the Closing Date or (2) the 105th day after an obligation to file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement
arises, whichever is later. In the event that the Company is required to file a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(b)(iii) above, the Company shall file and use its commercially reasonable efforts to have declared
effective by the SEC both an Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) with respect to all Registrable Securities and a Shelf Registration Statement (which may be a combined Registration Statement with the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement) with respect to offers and sales of Registrable Securities held by such Holder described in Section 2(b)(iii) above; 

(C) use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented, and
amended as required in order to permit the Prospectus forming part thereof to be usable by Holders for a period of one year after the latest date on which any Subordinated Notes are originally issued by the Company (subject to extension pursuant to
the last paragraph of Section 3) or, if earlier, when all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement (1) have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with the
intended method of distribution thereunder, or (2) otherwise cease to be Registrable Securities, whichever is earlier; and 

(D) notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that (1) any Shelf
Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any Prospectus forming a part thereof and any supplements thereto comply in all material respects with the 1933 Act, (2) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does
not, when it becomes effective, 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, and (3) any Prospectus forming part
of any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement to such Prospectus does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that clauses (2) and (3) shall not apply to any statement in or omission from a Shelf Registration Statement or a Prospectus made in reliance upon and conformity with
information relating to any Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer of Registrable Securities furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, respectively, expressly for use in such Shelf Registration Statement or
Prospectus. 
 The Company further agrees, if necessary, to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement if reasonably requested by
the Majority Holders with respect to information relating to the Holders and otherwise as required by Section 3(b) below, to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such amendment to become effective and such Shelf Registration
Statement to become usable as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and to furnish to the Holders of Registrable Securities copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after its being used or filed with the SEC. 

(c) Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration pursuant to Section 2(a) and
Section 2(b) and, in the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, will reimburse the Holders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel designated in writing by the Majority Holders to act as counsel for the Holders of the
Registrable Securities in connection 

  
 7 

 
therewith; provided that the Company shall not be responsible for reimbursement for the fees and disbursements of such counsel in an aggregate amount in excess of $7,500. Each Holder shall pay
all fees and disbursements of its counsel other than as set forth in the preceding sentence or in the definition of Registration Expenses, as well as all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or
disposition of such Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (d) Effective Registration
Statement. 
 (i) The Company shall be deemed not to have used its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement or any Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, to become, or to remain, effective during the requisite periods set forth herein if the Company voluntarily takes any action that would reasonably be expected to
result in any such Registration Statement not being declared effective or remaining effective or result in the Holders of Registrable Securities (including, under the circumstances contemplated by Section 3(f) hereof, Exchange
Securities) covered thereby not being able to exchange or offer and sell such Registrable Securities during that period unless (A) such action is required by applicable law or (B) such action is taken by the Company in good faith and for
valid business reasons (but not including avoidance of the Company’s obligations hereunder), including, but not limited to, the acquisition or divestiture of assets or a material corporate transaction or event, or if the Company determines in
good faith that effecting or maintaining the availability of the registration would materially and adversely affect an offering of securities of the Company or if the Company is in possession of material
non-public information the disclosure of which would not be in the best interests of the Company, in each case so long as the Company promptly complies with the notification requirements of
Section 3(k) hereof, if applicable. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the accrual of Additional Interest on any Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities. 

(ii) An Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or a Shelf Registration Statement
pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof shall not be deemed to have become effective unless it has been declared effective by the SEC; provided that if, after such Registration Statement has become effective, the offering of Registrable
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction, or other order or requirement of the SEC or any other governmental agency or court, such Registration Statement shall be deemed not to have been
effective during the period of such interference until the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement may legally resume. 

(iii) During any 365-day period, the Company may, by notice as described in
Section 3(e), suspend the availability of a Shelf Registration Statement (and, if the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is being used in connection with the resale of Exchange Securities by Participating Broker-Dealers as
contemplated by Section 3(f), the Exchange Offer Registration Statement) and the use of the related Prospectus for up to two periods of up to 60 consecutive days each (except for the consecutive
60-day period immediately prior to final maturity of the Subordinated Notes), but no more than an aggregate of 120 days during any 365-day period, (A) upon the
happening of any event or the discovery of any fact referred to in Section 3(e)(v), or (B) if the Company determines in good faith that effecting or maintaining the availability of the registration would materially and adversely
affect an offering of securities of the Company or if the Company is in possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which would not be in the best interests of the Company, in each case
subject to compliance by the Company with its obligations under the last paragraph of Section 3.

Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Prospectus included therein ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Exchange Securities for any reason during the 180-day period referred to in

Exchange Offer Registration Statement once again becoming effective or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and the Prospectus included therein becoming usable in connection with resales of Exchange Securities, as the case may be, in the case
of clause (vii) thereof, the interest rate borne by the Registrable Securities from the date of such filing, effectiveness, consummation or resumption of effectiveness or usability, as the case may be, shall be reduced to the original interest
rate so long as no other Registration Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing at such time and the Company is otherwise in compliance with this paragraph; provided, however, that, if after any such reduction in
interest rate, one or more Registration Defaults shall again occur, the interest rate shall again be increased pursuant to the foregoing provisions (as if it were the original Registration Default). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, the Company will not be obligated to pay any Additional Interest in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to any Holder of Registrable Securities who fails to timely provide all information with respect to Holder that is
reasonably requested by the Company to enable it to timely comply with its obligations under Section 2(b). 
 The Company shall
notify the Trustee within three Business Days after each and every date on which an event occurs in respect of which Additional Interest is required to be paid (an “Event Date”). Additional Interest shall be paid by depositing with
the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of Registrable Securities, on or before the applicable interest payment date, immediately available funds in sums sufficient to pay the Additional Interest then due. The Additional Interest due
shall be payable on each interest payment date to the record Holder of Registrable Securities entitled to receive the interest payment to be paid on such date as set forth in the Indenture. Each obligation to pay Additional Interest shall be deemed
to accrue from and including the day following the applicable Event Date. 
 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any Holder who
was, at the time the Exchange Offer was pending and consummated, eligible to exchange, and did not validly tender, its Subordinated Notes for Exchange Securities in the Exchange Offer will not be entitled to receive any Additional Interest. 

  
 10 

 (f) Specific Enforcement. Without limiting the remedies available to the Holders or
any Participating Broker-Dealer, the Company acknowledges that any failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under Section 2(a) and Section 2(b) hereof may result in material irreparable injury to the Holders or
the Participating Broker-Dealers for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely, and that, in the event of any such failure, any Holder and any Participating Broker-Dealer
may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Company’s obligations under Section 2(a) and Section 2(b). 

3. Registration Procedures. In connection with the obligations of the Company with respect to the Registration Statements
pursuant to Section 2(a) and Section 2(b) hereof, the Company shall: 
 (a) prepare and file with the SEC a
Registration Statement or, if required, Registration Statements, within the time periods specified in Section 2, on the appropriate form under the 1933 Act, which form (i) shall be selected by the Company, (ii) shall, in the
case of a Shelf Registration Statement, be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities by the selling Holders thereof, and (iii) shall comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the applicable form and include
or incorporate by reference all financial statements required by the SEC to be filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain
effective for the applicable period in accordance with Section 2 hereof; 
 (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments
and post-effective amendments to each Registration Statement as may be necessary under applicable law to keep such Registration Statement effective for the applicable period in accordance with Section 2 hereof; cause each Prospectus to
be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the 1933 Act; and comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable
Securities covered by each Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by the selling Holders thereof; 

(c) in the case of a Shelf Registration, (i) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities, at least ten Business Days prior to filing,
that a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to the Registrable Securities is being filed and advising such Holders that the distribution of Registrable Securities will be made in accordance with the method elected by the Majority Holders;
(ii) furnish to each Holder of Registrable Securities and counsel for the Holders, without charge, as many copies of each Prospectus, including each preliminary Prospectus, and any amendment or supplement thereto and such other documents as
such Holder or counsel may reasonably request, including financial statements and schedules and, if such Holder or counsel so requests, all exhibits (including those incorporated by reference) in order to facilitate the public sale or other
disposition of the Registrable Securities; and (iii) subject to the penultimate paragraph of this Section 3, the Company hereby consents to the use of the Prospectus, including each preliminary Prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto by each of the Holders of Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by and in the manner described in any Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto; 
 (d) use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities under all applicable
state securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement shall reasonably request, to cooperate with the Holders of any Registrable Securities in connection with
any filings required to be made with FINRA, to keep each such registration or qualification effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to be effective, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably
necessary or advisable to enable such Holder to consummate the disposition in each such jurisdiction of such Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign corporation or
entity or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d) or (ii) take any action that would subject it to general service of process or taxation in any
such jurisdiction if it is not then so subject; 

  
 11 

 (e) in the case of a Shelf Registration, notify each Holder of Registrable Securities and
counsel for such Holders promptly and, if requested by such Holder or counsel, confirm such advice in writing promptly: 

(i) when a Registration Statement has become effective and when any post-effective amendments and supplements thereto become
effective; 
 (ii) of any request by the SEC or any state securities authority for post-effective amendments or supplements
to a Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information after a Registration Statement has become effective (other than comments to 1934 Act reports incorporated by reference therein); 

(iii) of the issuance by the SEC or any state securities authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; 
 (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; 

(v) of the happening of any event or the discovery of any facts during the period a Shelf Registration Statement is effective
as is contemplated in Section 2(d)(i) or that makes any statement made in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related Prospectus untrue in any material respect or constitutes an omission to state a material fact in such Shelf
Registration Statement or Prospectus; and 
 (vi) of any determination by the Company that a post-effective amendment to a
Registration Statement would be appropriate. 
 Without limitation to any other provisions of this Agreement, the Company agrees that this
Section 3(e) shall also be applicable, mutatis mutandis, with respect to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and the Prospectus included therein to the extent that such Prospectus is being used by Participating Broker-Dealers as
contemplated by Section 3(f); 
 (f) (i) in the case of an Exchange Offer, (A) include in the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement (1) a “Plan of Distribution” section covering the use of the Prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement by broker-dealers who have exchanged their Registrable Securities for Exchange Securities for the
resale of such Exchange Securities and (2) a statement to the effect that any such broker-dealers who wish to use the related Prospectus in connection with the resale of Exchange Securities acquired as a result of market- making or other
trading activities will be required to notify the Company to that effect, together with instructions for giving such notice (which instructions shall include a provision for giving such notice by checking a box or making another appropriate notation
on the related letter of transmittal) (each such broker-dealer who gives notice to the Company as aforesaid being hereinafter called a “Notifying Broker-Dealer”), (B) furnish to each Notifying Broker-Dealer who desires to
participate in the Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of each Prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus, and any amendment or supplement thereto as such broker-dealer may
reasonably request, (C) include in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a statement that any broker-dealer who holds Registrable Securities acquired for its 

  
 12 

 
own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), and who receives Exchange Securities for Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Exchange Offer, may be a statutory underwriter and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the 1933 Act in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities, (D) subject to the penultimate paragraph of this
Section 3, the Company hereby consents to the use of the Prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto by any Notifying Broker-Dealer in accordance with applicable law in
connection with the sale or transfer of Exchange Securities, and (E) include in the letter of transmittal or similar documentation to be executed by an exchange offeree in order to participate in the Exchange Offer substantially the following
provision: 
 “If the undersigned is not a broker-dealer, the undersigned represents that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to
engage in, a distribution of Exchange Securities. If the undersigned is a broker-dealer that will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Registrable Securities, it represents that the Registrable Securities to be exchanged
for Exchange Securities were acquired by it as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and acknowledges that it will deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the 1933 Act in connection with any resale of such
Exchange Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer; however, by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the 1933 Act.” 

(ii) to the extent any Notifying Broker-Dealer participates in the Exchange Offer, (A) the Company shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement for a period of 180 days (subject to extension pursuant to the last paragraph of this Section 3) following the last date on which exchanges are accepted pursuant
to the Exchange Offer, and (B) the Company will comply, insofar as relates to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Prospectus included therein, and the offering and sale of Exchange Securities pursuant thereto, with its obligations
under Section 2(b)(D), the last paragraph of Section 2(b), Sections 3(c), 3(d), 3(e), 3(g), 3(i), 3(j), 3(k), 3(m), 3(n), and 3(o), and the last three
paragraphs of this Section 3 as if all references therein to a Shelf Registration Statement, the Prospectus included therein, and the Holders of Registrable Securities referred, mutatis mutandis, to the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, the Prospectus included therein, and the applicable Notifying Broker-Dealers and, for purposes of this Section 3(f), all references in any such paragraphs or sections to the “Majority Holders” shall be deemed to
mean, solely insofar as relates to this Section 3(f), the Notifying Broker-Dealers who are the Holders of the majority in aggregate principal amount of the Exchange Securities which are Registrable Securities; and 

(iii) the Company shall not be required to amend or supplement the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement as would
otherwise be contemplated by Section 3(b) hereof, or take any other action as a result of this Section 3(f), for a period exceeding 180 days (subject to extension pursuant to the last paragraph of this Section 3)
after the last date on which exchanges are accepted pursuant to the Exchange Offer and Notifying Broker-Dealers shall not be authorized by the Company to, and shall not, deliver such Prospectus after such period in connection with resales
contemplated by this Section 3; 
 (g) in the case of a Shelf Registration, furnish counsel for the Holders of Registrable
Securities copies of any request by the SEC or any state securities authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information (other than comments to 1934 Act reports incorporated by reference
therein); 
 (h) use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement as soon as practicable and provide prompt notice to each Holder of the withdrawal of any such order; 

  
 13 

 (i) in the case of a Shelf Registration, upon request, furnish to each Holder of Registrable
Securities, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and any post-effective amendments thereto (without documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein or exhibits thereto, unless
requested); 
 (j) in the case of a Shelf Registration, cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Securities to facilitate the
timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends, and cause such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations (consistent with the provisions of the
Indenture) and in a form eligible for deposit with the Depositary and registered in such names as the selling Holders may reasonably request in writing at least two Business Days prior to the closing of any sale of Registrable Securities; 

(k) in the case of a Shelf Registration, upon the occurrence of any event or the discovery of any facts as contemplated by
Section 3(e)(v) hereof, use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement or the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by
reference therein or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities, such Prospectus will not contain at the time of such delivery any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company agrees to notify each Holder to suspend use of the Prospectus as promptly as
practicable after the occurrence of such an event, and each Holder hereby agrees to suspend use of the Prospectus until the Company has amended or supplemented the Prospectus to correct such misstatement or omission. At such time as such public
disclosure is otherwise made or the Company determines that such disclosure is not necessary, in each case to correct any misstatement of a material fact or to include any omitted material fact, the Company agrees promptly to notify each Holder of
such determination and to furnish each Holder such number of copies of the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, as such Holder may reasonably request; 

(l) obtain CUSIP and ISIN numbers for all Exchange Securities or Registrable Securities, as the case may be, not later than the effective date
of a Registration Statement, and provide the Trustee with printed or word-processed certificates for the Exchange Securities or Registrable Securities, as the case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with the Depositary; 

(m) in the case of a Shelf Registration, upon request, make available for inspection, at reasonable times and in reasonable manner, by
representatives of the Holders of the Registrable Securities participating in any disposition pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and one counsel or accountant retained by such Holders (with such inspection to occur at such time as shall be
mutually agreed between the Company and such Persons), all financial statements and other records, documents, and properties of the Company reasonably requested by any such Persons, and cause the respective officers, directors, employees, and any
other agents of the Company to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Persons in connection with a Shelf Registration Statement; provided that any such Persons shall be required to execute a customary confidentiality agreement; 

(n) in the case of a Shelf Registration, a reasonable time prior to filing any Shelf Registration Statement, any Prospectus forming a part
thereof, any amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or amendment or supplement to such Prospectus (other than 1934 Act reports incorporated by reference therein), provide copies of such document to the Holders of Registrable Securities and
to counsel for any such Holders, and make such changes in any such document prior to the filing thereof as the Holders of Registrable Securities or their counsel may reasonably request and cause the representatives of the Company to be available for
discussion of such documents, at reasonable times and in reasonable manner, as may be reasonably requested by the Holders of Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not at any time make any filing of any such document of which such Holders or
their counsel shall not have previously been advised and furnished a copy or to which such Holders or their counsel shall reasonably object within a reasonable time period; 

  
 14 

 (o) in the case of a Shelf Registration, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause
the Registrable Securities to be rated by the same rating agency that initially rated the Subordinated Notes, if so requested by the Majority Holders of Registrable Securities, unless the Registrable Securities are already so rated; 

(p) otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply in all material respects with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC
and, with respect to each Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment, if any, thereto and each filing by the Company of an Annual Report on Form 10-K, make available to its security holders, as
soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering at least 12 months that shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act and Rule 158 thereunder; and 

(q) (i) cause the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA in connection with the registration of the Exchange Securities or Registrable
Securities, as the case may be, (ii) cooperate with the Trustee and the Holders to effect such changes, if any, to the Indenture as may be required for the Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA, and
(iii) execute, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to effect such changes, if any, and all other forms and documents required to be filed with the SEC to enable the
Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner. 
 In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company may require each Holder of
Registrable Securities to furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the proposed distribution by such Holder of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing and require such
Holder to agree in writing to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder. 
 In the case of a Shelf Registration
Statement, each Holder agrees and, in the event that any Participating Broker-Dealer is using the Prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement in connection with the sale of Exchange Securities pursuant to
Section 3(f), each such Participating Broker-Dealer agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event or the discovery of any facts of the kind described in Section 3(e)(ii) through
Section 3(e)(vi) hereof, such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement until receipt by such Holder or Participating
Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, of (i) the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(k) hereof or (ii) written notice from the Company that the Shelf Registration Statement or the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement, respectively, are once again effective or that no supplement or amendment is required. If so directed by the Company, such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, will deliver to the Company (at the
Company’s expense) all copies in its possession, other than permanent file copies then in its possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. Nothing in this paragraph shall
prevent the accrual of Additional Interest on any Registrable Securities. 
 If the Company shall give any such notice to suspend the
disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company shall be deemed to have used its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement or, in the case of Section 3(f),
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as the case may be, effective during such period of suspension; provided that (i) such period of suspension shall not exceed the time periods provided in Section 2(d)(iii)

  
 15 

 
hereof and (ii) the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file and have become effective (if an amendment) as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter an amendment or
supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or both, as the case may be, or the Prospectus included therein and shall extend the period during which the Shelf Registration Statement or the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement or both, as the case may be, shall be maintained effective pursuant to this Agreement (and, if applicable, the period during which Participating Broker-Dealers may use the Prospectus included in the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3(f) hereof) by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the earlier of the date when the Holders or Participating
Broker-Dealers, respectively, shall have received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus necessary to resume such dispositions and the effective date of written notice from the Company to the Holders or Participating Broker-Dealers,
respectively, that the Shelf Registration Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, respectively, is once again effective or that no supplement or amendment is required. 

 

	 	4.	 Indemnification and Contribution. 

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, each Participating Broker-Dealer, and each Person, if any, who controls any
Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, as follows: 

(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage, and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) pursuant to which Exchange Securities or Registrable Securities were registered under the 1933 Act, including all documents
incorporated by reference therein, or any 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 contained in any Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or any 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, 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 described in subparagraph (i) above; provided that any such settlement is effected with the prior written consent of the Company; and 

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including, subject to Section 4(c) below, the fees and
disbursements of counsel chosen by any indemnified party), reasonably 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 described in subparagraph (i) above, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under subparagraph (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 in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer with respect to such Holder or
Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). 

 

  
 16 

 (b) Each Holder, severally but not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, each Participating Broker-Dealer and each other selling Holder and each Person, if any, who controls the Company, any Participating
Broker-Dealer or any other selling Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage, and expense described in the indemnity contained in
Section 4(a) hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Shelf Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus included therein (or any
amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect to such Holder furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use in the Shelf Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such
Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto); provided that no such Holder shall be liable for any claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf
Registration Statement. 
 (c) Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of
any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially
prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. Counsel to the respective indemnified parties shall be selected as follows:
(i) counsel to the Company, its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and all Persons, if any, who control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act
shall be selected by the Company; (ii) counsel to the Holders (other than Participating Broker-Dealers) and all Persons, if any, who control any Holders (other than any Participating Broker-Dealers) within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall be selected by the Holders who held or hold, as the case may be, a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities held by all such Holders; and (iii) counsel to the
Participating Broker- Dealers and all Persons, if any, who control any such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall be selected by the Participating Broker-Dealers
who held or hold, as the case may be, a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Exchange Securities referred to in Section 3(f) hereof held by all such Participating Broker-Dealers. In no event shall the indemnifying party or
parties be liable for (A) the fees and expenses of more than one counsel separate from the indemnifying parties’ own counsel for the Company and all other Persons referred to in clause (i) of this paragraph, (B) the fees and
expenses of more than one counsel separate from the indemnifying parties’ own counsel for all Holders (other than Participating Broker-Dealers) and all other Persons referred to in clause (ii) of this paragraph, and (C) the fees and
expenses of more than one counsel separate from the indemnifying parties’ own counsel for all Participating Broker-Dealers and all other Persons referred to in clause (iii) of this paragraph, in each case in connection with any one action
or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with
any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, provided that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal
defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal
defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified 

  
 17 

 
party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each
case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation unless (Y) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to
the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, approved by the indemnifying party) or (Z) the indemnifying party shall not have employed
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying
party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced
or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 4 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement,
compromise, or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding, or claim and (ii) 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) If the indemnification provided for in this
Section 4 is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages, or expenses referred to herein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the
aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and
of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault
of such indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand 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 such indemnifying party or parties or such indemnified party or parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct
or prevent such statement or omission. 
 (e) The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The aggregate amount of losses,
liabilities, claims, damages, and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 4 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating,
preparing for, 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 or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4, other than in the case of intentional misrepresentation
or omission of a material fact, no Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which Registrable Securities sold by it were offered exceeds the amount of any
damages that such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 

No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution
from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

  
 18 

 For purposes of this Section 4, each Person, if any, who controls a Holder or
Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, and each director of
the Company, each officer 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 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as the Company. 
 The respective obligations of the Holders and Participating Broker-Dealers to contribute pursuant to this
Section 4 are several in proportion to the principal amount of Subordinated Notes purchased by them and not joint. 
 The
indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 4 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any
Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer or any Person controlling any Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors, or any Person controlling the Company, (iii) acceptance of any of the
Exchange Securities, and (iv) any sale of Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement. 
  

	 	5.	 Miscellaneous. 

(a) Rule 144 and Rule 144A. For so long as the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15
of the 1934 Act, the Company covenants that it will file all reports required to be filed by it under Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder, and that if it ceases to be
so required to file such reports, it will upon the request of any Holder or beneficial owner of Registrable Securities (i) make publicly available such information (including without limitation the information specified in Rule 144(c)(2) under
the 1933 Act) as is necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, (ii) deliver or cause to be delivered, promptly following a request by any Holder or beneficial owner of Registrable Securities or any prospective purchaser

and (iii) take such further action that is reasonable in the circumstances, in each case to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell its Registrable Securities without registration under the 1933 Act within the

or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Registrable
Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver, or departure.

 (e) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of
and be binding upon the successors, assigns, and transferees of each of the parties, including without limitation, and without the need for an express assignment, subsequent Holders; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to permit any
assignment, transfer, or other disposition of Registrable Securities in violation of the terms hereof or of the Purchase Agreements or the Indenture. If any transferee of any Holder shall acquire Registrable Securities in any manner, whether by

hereunder and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights. Each Holder, by its acquisition of Subordinated Notes, shall be deemed to have agreed to the
provisions of Section 4 hereof.

the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Any facsimile or electronically transmitted copies hereof or

import used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures and the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature in ink or the

Transactions Act, and any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company is not under any obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in

(as defined in Rule 144 under the 1933 Act) shall redeem, purchase, or otherwise acquire any Registrable Security or any Exchange Security that is a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, the Company will
deliver or cause to be delivered such Registrable Security or Exchange Security, as the case may be, to the Trustee for cancellation and neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates will hold or resell such Registrable Security or
Exchange Security or issue any new Registrable Security or Exchange Security to replace the same.

agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral statements and prior writings with respect hereto. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any

PURCHASE
TERMS 

 

Subject
to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VII, the parties agree as follows:

 

Section
3.1. VWAP Purchases. Upon the initial satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 (the “Commencement”
and the date of initial satisfaction of all of such conditions, the “Commencement Date”) and from time to time
thereafter, subject to the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.3, the Company shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to direct the Investor, by its timely delivery to the Investor of a VWAP Purchase Notice, in substantially the form attached
hereto as Exhibit D, after 6:00 a.m., New York City time, but prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, to purchase a number of
Shares equal to the applicable VWAP Purchase Share Amount, not to exceed the applicable VWAP Purchase Maximum Amount, at the applicable
VWAP Purchase Price therefor on such VWAP Purchase Date in accordance with this Agreement (each such purchase, a “VWAP Purchase”).
In addition, the Investor may, in its sole discretion, accept a VWAP Purchase Notice after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on a VWAP Purchase
Date, provided that such acceptance, once provided, shall be irrevocable and binding and the Company’s obligation to deliver the
Shares that are the subject of such VWAP Purchase Notice shall be binding; provided that, if the Investor does not accept a VWAP
Purchase Notice that is delivered after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, such VWAP Purchase Notice shall be deemed to be null and void.
The Investor may also, in its sole discretion, accept additional VWAP Purchase Notices within a Trading Day, in which case any prior
VWAP Purchase Notice accepted by the Investor in such Trading Day shall be null, void, superseded and replaced in its entirety by such
subsequent VWAP Purchase Notice. The Company may timely deliver a VWAP Purchase Notice to the Investor as often as every Trading Day
(and may deliver multiple VWAP Purchase Notices in any given day, it being understood that a subsequent VWAP Purchase Notice will supersede
and replace all earlier VWAP Purchase Notices delivered within the same Trading Day in their entirety), so long as all Shares subject
to all prior VWAP Purchases theretofore required to have been received by the Investor as DWAC Shares under this Agreement have been
delivered to the Investor as DWAC Shares in accordance with this Agreement. The Investor is obligated to accept each VWAP Purchase Notice
prepared and delivered by the Company in accordance with the terms of and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in
this Agreement. If the Company delivers any VWAP Purchase Notice directing the Investor to purchase a number of Shares that is in excess
of the applicable VWAP Purchase Maximum Amount, such VWAP Purchase Notice shall be void ab initio to the extent of the amount
by which the VWAP Purchase Share Amount set forth in such VWAP Purchase Notice exceeds such applicable VWAP Purchase Maximum Amount,
and the Investor shall have no obligation to purchase such excess Shares in respect of such VWAP Purchase Notice; provided, however,
that the Investor shall remain obligated to purchase the applicable VWAP Purchase Maximum Amount in such VWAP Purchase. Each VWAP Purchase
Notice must include a VWAP Purchase Share Estimate. Each VWAP Purchase Notice must be accompanied by irrevocable instructions to the
Company’s Transfer Agent to immediately issue and deliver to the Investor an amount of Common Stock equal to the VWAP Purchase
Share Estimate. In no event shall the Investor purchase (or be deemed to have purchased), pursuant to any VWAP Purchase, a number of
Shares constituting the applicable VWAP Purchase Share Amount that exceeds the VWAP Purchase Share Estimate issued on the VWAP Purchase
Date in connection with such VWAP Purchase Notice; however, the Investor will promptly instruct the Transfer Agent to return to the Company
any Shares issued pursuant to the VWAP Purchase Share Estimate that exceeds the number of Shares constituting the applicable VWAP Purchase
Share Amount the Investor actually purchases in connection with such VWAP Purchase (such amount, the “Excess Shares”).
Alternatively, if the Transfer Agent does not return the Excess Shares to the Company on the VWAP Purchase Date in accordance with the
Investor’s instructions, or if otherwise instructed in writing by the Company, Investor may retain such Excess Shares (provided
Investor will not be deemed to have purchased such Excess Shares), and such Excess Shares will be deemed pre-delivered Shares that will
reduce the number of Shares required to be delivered by the Company in accordance with this section on the next VWAP Purchase Date in
connection with the next VWAP Purchase Notice. At or prior to 5:30 p.m., New York City time, on the VWAP Purchase Date for each VWAP
Purchase, the Investor shall provide to the Company a written confirmation for such VWAP Purchase setting forth the applicable VWAP Purchase
Price per Share to be paid by the Investor in such VWAP Purchase, and the total aggregate VWAP Purchase Price to be paid by the Investor
for the total VWAP Purchase Share Amount purchased by the Investor in such VWAP Purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
shall not deliver any VWAP Purchase Notices to the Investor during the Post-Effective Amendment Period.

 

Section
3.2. Settlement. For each VWAP Purchase, the Investor shall pay to the Company an amount in cash equal to the product of (i)
the total number of Shares purchased by the Investor in such VWAP Purchase and (ii) the applicable VWAP Purchase Price for such Shares
(the “VWAP Purchase Amount”), as full payment for such Shares purchased by the Investor in such VWAP Purchase,
via wire transfer of immediately available funds, not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second (2nd) Trading Day following
the applicable VWAP Purchase Share Delivery Date for such VWAP Purchase, provided the Investor shall have timely received, as DWAC Shares,
all of such Shares purchased by the Investor in such VWAP Purchase on such VWAP Purchase Share Delivery Date in accordance with the first
sentence of this Section 3.2. If the Investor fails to pay the VWAP Purchase Amount when due, the Investor will return the DWAC Shares
to the Company; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed as excusing the Investor from consummating any VWAP Purchase
in respect of each validly delivered VWAP Purchase Notice. If the Company or the Transfer Agent shall fail for any reason to deliver
to the Investor, as DWAC Shares, any Shares purchased by the Investor in a VWAP Purchase prior to 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on
the Trading Day immediately following the date of the applicable VWAP Purchase Share Notice (the “Share Delivery Deadline”)
for such VWAP Purchase, and if on or after such Trading Day the Investor purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares
of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Investor of such Shares that the Investor anticipated receiving from the
Company on such VWAP Purchase Share Delivery Date in respect of such VWAP Purchase, then the Company shall, within one (1) Trading Day
after the Investor’s request, either (i) pay cash to the Investor in an amount equal to the Investor’s total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Cover Price”),
at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such Shares as DWAC Shares (and the Investor’s obligation to purchase
such Shares from the Company) shall terminate, offset by any amount of the VWAP Purchase Price for the applicable Shares unpaid by the
Investor, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Investor such Shares as DWAC Shares and pay cash to the Investor in
an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Cover Price over the total purchase price paid by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement
for all of the Shares purchased by the Investor in such VWAP Purchase. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common
Stock to the Investor in connection with any VWAP Purchase effected pursuant to this Agreement. If the issuance would result in the issuance
of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up or down to the nearest
whole share. All payments to be made by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to such account as the Company may from time to time designate by written notice to the Investor in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement.

Section
3.3. Compliance with Rules of Principal Market.

 

(i)
Exchange Cap. The Company shall not issue or sell any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, and the Investor
shall not purchase or acquire any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent that after giving effect thereto,
the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would be issued pursuant to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby
would exceed 7,482,763 shares of Common Stock (representing 19.99% of the voting power or number of shares of Common Stock, issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement), which number of shares shall be reduced, on a share-for-share basis,
by the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any transaction or series of transactions that may be aggregated
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under applicable rules of the Principal Market (such maximum number of shares, the
“Exchange Cap”), unless the Company’s stockholders have approved the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement
in excess of the Exchange Cap in accordance with the applicable rules of the Principal Market. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company
may, but shall be under no obligation to, request its stockholders to approve the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement;
provided, that if such stockholder approval is not obtained, the Exchange Cap shall be applicable for all purposes of this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby at all times during the term of this Agreement.

 

(ii)
General. The Company shall not issue or sell any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement if such issuance or sale
would reasonably be expected to result in (a) a violation of the Securities Act or (b) a breach of the rules of the Principal Market.
The provisions of this Section 3.3 shall not be implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section
3.3 unless necessary to ensure compliance with the Securities Act and the applicable rules of the Principal Market.

 

Section
3.4. Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall
not issue or sell, and the Investor shall not purchase or acquire, any shares of Common Stock under this Agreement which, when aggregated
with all other shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by the Investor and its Affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d)
of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder), would result in the beneficial ownership by the Investor and its Affiliates
(on an aggregated basis) of more than 4.99% of the outstanding voting power or shares of Common Stock (the “Beneficial Ownership
Limitation”). Upon the written or oral request of the Investor, the Company shall promptly (but not later than the next
business day on which the Transfer Agent is open for business) confirm orally or in writing to the Investor the number of shares of Common
Stock then outstanding. The Investor and the Company shall each cooperate in good faith in the determinations required under this Section
3.4 and the application of this Section 3.4. The Investor’s written certification to the Company of the applicability of the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation, and the resulting effect thereof hereunder at any time, shall be conclusive with respect to the applicability thereof
and such result absent manifest error. The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall not be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise
than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3.4 unless necessary to properly give effect to the limitations contained in
this Section 3.4.

or by other equitable principles of general application (including any limitation of equitable remedies).

 

Section

and the consummation by the Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and shall not (i) result in a violation
of such Investor’s applicable organizational instruments, (ii) conflict with, constitute a default (or an event which, with notice

of, any material agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which
the Investor is a party or is bound, or (iii) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, or regulation,
or any order, judgment or decree of any court or governmental agency applicable to the Investor or by which any of its properties or
assets are bound or affected, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments,
acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, prohibit or otherwise interfere with, in any
material respect, the ability of the Investor to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement. The Investor is not required under any applicable federal, state or local law, rule or regulation to obtain any consent, authorization
or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform
any of its obligations under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement or to purchase or acquire the Shares in accordance

provided, however, that for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, the Investor is assuming and relying

Company in the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

 

Section
4.4. Investment Purpose. The Investor is acquiring the Shares for its own account, for investment purposes and not with a
view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable
state securities laws; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, the Investor does not agree, or make
any representation or warranty, to hold any of the Shares for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of
the Shares at any time in accordance with, or pursuant to, a registration statement filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement
or an applicable exemption under the Securities Act. The Investor is acquiring the Shares hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

understandings of the Investor set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the
Investor to acquire the Shares.

and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Shares which have been requested by the Investor have been furnished or otherwise
made available to the Investor or its advisors, including, without limitation, the Commission Documents. The Investor understands that
its investment in the Shares involves a high degree of risk. The Investor is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares
and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of a proposed
investment in the Shares. The Investor and its advisors have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from
representatives of the Company concerning the financial condition and business of the Company and other matters relating to an investment
in the Shares. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by the Investor or its advisors, if any, or
its representatives shall modify, amend or affect the Investor’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties
contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document to which the Company is a party or the Investor’s right to rely
on any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this Agreement or the consummation of the transaction
contemplated hereby (including without limitation the opinions of the Company’s counsel delivered pursuant to this Agreement and
the Registration Rights Agreement). The Investor has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make
an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Shares. The Investor understands that it (and not the Company)
shall be responsible for its own tax liabilities that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

 

Section
4.8. No Governmental Review. The Investor understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government
or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares or the fairness or suitability of the investment
in the Shares nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Shares.

 

Section
4.9. No General Solicitation. The Investor is not purchasing or acquiring the Shares as a result of any form of general solicitation

or be deemed to prohibit the Investor from purchasing, in an open market transaction or otherwise, shares of Common Stock necessary to
make delivery by the Investor in satisfaction of a sale by the Investor of Shares that the Investor anticipated receiving from the Company

or its designated Broker-Dealer’s account at DTC through its DWAC delivery system in compliance with Section 3.2 of this Agreement.
For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing restriction does not apply to any Affiliate of the Investor, provided that any such purchases

requires such license or qualification, and have all entity power and authority necessary to own or hold their respective properties
and to conduct their respective businesses as described in the Commission Documents, except where the failure to be so qualified or in
good standing or have such power or authority would not, individually or in the aggregate, (i) have a material adverse effect or would

(financial or otherwise), prospects, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as
a whole, or (ii) prevent or materially interfere with consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Material Adverse

of any securities under the Securities Act. Except as set forth in the Commission Documents, no shares of Common Stock are entitled to
preemptive rights and there are no outstanding debt securities and no contracts, commitments, understandings, or arrangements by which
the Company is or may become bound to issue additional shares of the capital stock of the Company or options, warrants, scrip, rights

of the transactions described herein or therein. The Company has filed with the Commission true and correct copies of the Company’s

Section
5.6. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of each of the Transaction Documents to which it
is a party and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and shall not (i) result in
a violation of any provision of the Company’s Charter or Bylaws, (ii) result in a violation of or constitute a material default

Act, including those required to be filed with or furnished to the Commission under Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
As of the date of this Agreement, no Subsidiary of the Company is required to file or furnish any report, schedule, registration, form,

prior to the Closing Date complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable,
and other federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations applicable to it. Each Registration Statement, on the date it is filed
with the Commission, and on the date it becomes effective and on each VWAP Purchase Date shall comply in all material respects with the
requirements of the Securities Act (including, without limitation, Rule 415 under the Securities Act) and shall not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein not misleading, except that this representation and warranty shall not apply to statements in or omissions from such Registration
Statement made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Investor furnished to the Company in writing by or
on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. The Prospectus and each Prospectus Supplement required to be filed pursuant to this
Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement after the Closing Date, when taken together, on its date and on each VWAP Purchase Date
shall comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act (including, without limitation, Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act) and shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,
except that this representation and warranty shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement

and Prospectus are based on or derived from sources that the Company believes to be reliable and accurate or represent the Company’s
good faith estimates that are made on the basis of data derived from such sources. Each Commission Document (other than the Initial Registration
Statement or any New Registration Statement, or the Prospectus included therein or any Prospectus Supplement thereto) to be filed with
or furnished to the Commission after the Closing Date and incorporated by reference in the Initial Registration Statement or any New
Registration Statement, or the Prospectus included therein or any Prospectus Supplement thereto required to be filed pursuant to this

or furnished to the Commission and, if applicable, when such document becomes effective, as the case may be, shall comply in all material
respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and other federal, state and local laws, rules
and regulations applicable to it. The Company has delivered or made available to the Investor via EDGAR or otherwise true and complete
copies of all comment letters and substantive correspondence received by the Company from the Commission relating to the Commission Documents

by the Company from the Commission. The Commission has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration
statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

 

(ii)
The consolidated financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the Commission Documents, together with
the related notes and schedules, present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its
then consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates indicated, and the consolidated results of operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders’
equity of the Company and its then consolidated subsidiaries for the periods specified and have been prepared in compliance with the
published requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, and in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis. Any summary consolidated financial
data included or incorporated by reference in the Commission Documents present fairly the information shown therein and have been compiled
on a basis consistent with that of the financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Commission Documents, as of
and at the dates indicated. Any pro forma condensed combined financial statements and any pro forma combined financial statements and
any other pro forma financial statements or data included or incorporated by reference in the Commission Documents comply with the requirements
of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act, including, without limitation, Article 11 thereof, and the assumptions used in the preparation
of any such pro forma financial statements and data are reasonable, the pro forma adjustments used therein are appropriate to give effect
to the circumstances referred to therein and the pro forma adjustments have been properly applied to the historical amounts in the compilation
of those statements and data. There are no financial statements (historical or pro forma) that are required to be included or incorporated
by reference in the Commission Documents that are not included or incorporated by reference as required. All disclosures contained or
incorporated by reference in the Commission Documents, 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. The interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included

a valid and binding obligation of the Company or the Subsidiary of the Company that is party thereto and, to the Knowledge of the Company,

with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and any of its Subsidiaries or (b) would not, individually
or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Any real or personal property described in the Commission Documents as being leased

or except for such failures to comply that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to interfere in any material
respect with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and its Subsidiaries or otherwise have a Material Adverse
Effect. None of the Company or its Subsidiaries has received from any Governmental Authorities any notice of any condemnation of, or
zoning change affecting, the properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the Company knows of no such condemnation or zoning
change which is threatened, except for such that would not reasonably be expected to interfere in any material respect with the use made

Intellectual Property owned by the Company and its Subsidiaries, other than non-exclusive licenses granted in the ordinary course of
business; (b) to the Company’s Knowledge, there is no infringement by third parties of any such Intellectual Property; (c) there

brokerage commissions or similar payments in connection with the transactions herein contemplated.

 

Section
5.17. Disclosure. The Company confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided the Investor
or any of its agents, advisors or counsel with any information that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to constitute material,
nonpublic information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than the existence of the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Documents. The Company understands and confirms that the Investor will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting
resales of Shares under the Registration Statement.

 

Section
5.18. Market Capitalization. As of the date hereof, the aggregate market value of the outstanding voting and non-voting common
equity (as defined in Securities Act Rule 405) of the Company held by persons other than Affiliates of the Company (pursuant to Securities
Act Rule 144, those that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, control, or are controlled by, or are under common
control with, the Company) (the “Non-Affiliate Shares”), was equal to $29,285,008 (calculated by multiplying
(i) the highest price at which the common equity of the Company closed on the Principal Market within 60 days of the date of this Agreement
times (ii) the number of Non-Affiliate Shares).

 

Section
5.19. Broker/Dealer Relationships. Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries (i) is required to register as a “broker”
or “dealer” in accordance with the provisions of the Exchange Act or (ii) directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries,
controls or is a “person associated with a member” or “associated person of a member” (within the meaning set
forth in the FINRA Manual).

 

Section
5.20. Controls. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintain systems of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide
reasonable assurance that (i) transactions, including receipts and expenditures, 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
GAAP and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or
specific authorization; (iv) its policies and procedures provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets, including the comparison of the recorded accountability for assets with
the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences and (v) its books and records
accurately reflect its assets. 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 Commission Documents). Since
the date of the latest audited financial statements of the Company included in the Commission Documents, 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 Commission Documents). The Company has
established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) for the Company 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, and designed such disclosure
controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company and each of its Subsidiaries 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 disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within ninety (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
has 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.

Section
5.45. Acknowledgement Regarding Relationship with Investor and CF&CO. The Company acknowledges and agrees, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, that the Investor is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s-length purchaser with respect to this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and CF&CO is acting as a representative of the Investor in connection
with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and of no other party, including the Company. The Company further acknowledges
that while the Investor will be deemed to be a statutory “underwriter” with respect to certain of the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents in accordance with interpretive positions of the Staff of the Commission, the Investor is a “trader”
that is not required to register with the Commission as a broker-dealer under Section 15(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The
Company further acknowledges that the Investor and its representatives are not acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company
(or in any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and any advice
given by the Investor or any of its representatives (including CF&CO) or agents in connection therewith is merely incidental to the
Investor’s acquisition of the Shares. The Company and Investor understand and acknowledge that employees of CF&CO may discuss
market color, VWAP Purchase Notice timing and parameter considerations and other related capital markets considerations with the Company
in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, in all cases on behalf of the Investor. The Company
acknowledges and agrees that the Investor has not made and does not make any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents other than those specifically set forth in Article IV.

 

Section
5.46. Acknowledgement Regarding Investor’s Affiliate Relationships. Affiliates of the Investor, including CF&CO,
engage in a wide range of activities for their own accounts and the accounts of customers, including corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions,
merchant banking, equity and fixed income sales, trading and research, derivatives, foreign exchange, futures, asset management, custody,
clearance and securities lending. In the course of their respective business, Affiliates of the Investor may, directly or indirectly,
hold long or short positions, trade and otherwise conduct such activities in or with respect to debt or equity securities or bank debt
of, or derivative products relating to, the Company. Any such position will be created, and maintained, independently of the position
the Investor takes in the Company. In addition, at any given time Affiliates of the Investor, including CF&CO, may have been or in
the future may be engaged by one or more entities that may be competitors with, or otherwise adverse to, the Company in matters unrelated
to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and Affiliates of the Investor, including CF&CO may have or may in
the future provide investment banking or other services to the Company in matters unrelated to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. Activities of any of the Investor’s Affiliates performed on behalf of the Company may give rise to actual or apparent
conflicts of interest given the Investor’s potentially competing interests with those of the Company. The Company expressly acknowledges
the benefits it receives from the Investor’s participation in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, on the
one hand, and the Investor’s Affiliates’ activities, if any, on behalf of the Company unrelated to the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents, on the other hand, and understands the conflict or potential conflict of interest that may arise in this
regard, and has consulted with such independent advisors as it deems appropriate in order to understand and assess the risks associated
with these potential conflicts of interest. Consistent with applicable legal and regulatory requirements, applicable Affiliates of the
Investor have adopted policies and procedures to establish and maintain the independence of their research departments and personnel
from their investment banking groups and the Investor. As a result, research analysts employed by Affiliates of the Investor may hold
views, make statements or investment recommendations or publish research reports with respect to the Company or the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents that differ from the views of the Investor.

or Securities Act, except as permitted herein. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to continue the listing and trading
of its Common Stock and the listing of the Shares purchased by the Investor hereunder on the Principal Market and to comply with the
Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market. The Company shall not
take any action which could be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on the Principal Market.
If the Company receives any final and non-appealable notice that the listing or quotation of the Common Stock on the Principal Market
shall be terminated on a date certain, the Company shall promptly (and in any case within 24 hours) notify the Investor of such fact
in writing and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Common Stock to be listed or quoted on another Principal Market.

 

Section

this Agreement in any material respect or for the Investor to conduct resales of Shares under the Registration Statement in any material
respect.

 

(ii)
The Investor shall comply with all laws, rules, regulations and orders applicable to the performance by it of its obligations under this

Section
6.6. No Frustration; No Similar Transactions.

 

(i)
No Frustration. The Company shall not enter into, announce or recommend to its stockholders any agreement, plan, arrangement
or transaction in or of which the terms thereof would restrict, materially delay, conflict with or impair the ability or right of the
Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, including, without limitation, the obligation
of the Company to deliver the Shares to the Investor in respect of a VWAP Purchase not later than the Share Delivery Deadline. For the

Investor shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief against the Company and its Subsidiaries to preclude any such issuance, which remedy
shall be in addition to any right to collect damages, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security
being required.

 

Section
6.7. Corporate Existence. The Company shall take all steps necessary to preserve and continue the corporate existence of the
Company; provided, however, that, except as provided in Section 6.8, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit

Section
6.9. Selling Restrictions.

 

(i)
Except as expressly set forth below, the Investor covenants that from and after the Closing Date through and including the Trading Day
next following the expiration or termination of this Agreement as provided in Article VIII (the “Restricted Period”),
none of the Investor or any entity managed or controlled by the Investor (collectively, the “Restricted Persons”
and each of the foregoing is referred to herein as a “Restricted Person”) shall, directly or indirectly, (a)
engage in any Short Sales of the Common Stock or (b) hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to the
Common Stock, with respect to each of clauses (a) and (b) hereof, for the principal account of the Investor or any Restricted Person.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that nothing contained herein shall (without implication that the
contrary would otherwise be true) prohibit any Restricted Person during the Restricted Period from: (x) selling “long” (as
defined under Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO) the Shares; or (y) selling a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number
of Shares that such Restricted Person is unconditionally obligated to purchase under a pending VWAP Purchase Notice but has not yet received
from the Company or the Transfer Agent pursuant to this Agreement, so long as (1) such Restricted Person (or the Broker-Dealer, as applicable)
delivers the Shares purchased pursuant to such VWAP Purchase Notice to the purchaser thereof or the applicable Broker-Dealer promptly
upon such Restricted Person’s receipt of such Shares from the Company in accordance with Section 3.2 of this Agreement and (2)
neither the Company nor the Transfer Agent shall have failed for any reason to deliver such Shares to the Investor or its Broker-Dealer
so that such Shares are received by the Investor as DWAC Shares prior to the applicable Share Delivery Deadline in accordance with Section
3.2 of this Agreement.

 

(ii)
In addition to the foregoing, in connection with any sale of Shares (including any sale permitted by paragraph (i) above), the Investor
shall comply in all respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders, including, without limitation, the requirements
of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

 

Section

under the Securities Act for the applicable Registration Period pursuant to and in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

Section
6.11. Blue Sky. The Company shall take such action, if any, as is necessary by the Company in order to obtain an exemption
for or to qualify the Shares for sale by the Company to the Investor pursuant to the Transaction Documents, and at the request of the
Investor, the subsequent resale of Registrable Securities by the Investor, in each case, under applicable state securities or “Blue
Sky” laws and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Investor from time to time following the Closing Date;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify
to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 6.11, (y) subject itself
to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.

 

    	22

     

    

 

Section
6.12. Non-Public Information. Neither the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor any of their respective directors, officers,
employees or agents shall disclose any material non-public information about the Company to the Investor during any VWAP Purchase Period,
unless a simultaneous public announcement thereof is made by the Company in the manner contemplated by Regulation FD. In the event of
a breach of the foregoing covenant by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees
and agents (as determined in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Investor), (i) the Investor shall promptly provide written notice
of such breach to the Company and (ii) after such notice has been provided to the Company and, provided that the Company shall have failed
to demonstrate to the Investor in writing within 24 hours that such information does not constitute material, non-public information
or the Company shall have failed to publicly disclose such material, non-public information within 24 hours following demand therefor
by the Investor, in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the other Transaction Documents, if the Investor is holding any
Shares at the time of the disclosure of material, non-public information, the Investor shall have the right to make a public disclosure,
in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such material, non-public information without the prior approval
by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents. The Investor shall not
have any liability to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders or
agents, for any such disclosure.

 

Section
6.13. Broker/Dealer. The Investor shall use one or more broker-dealers to effectuate all sales, if any, of the Shares that
it may purchase or otherwise acquire from the Company pursuant to the Transaction Documents, as applicable, which (or whom) shall be
a DTC participant (collectively, the “Broker-Dealer”). The Investor shall, from time to time, provide the Company
and the Transfer Agent with all information regarding the Broker-Dealer reasonably requested by the Company. The Investor shall be solely
responsible for all fees and commissions of the Broker-Dealer (if any), which shall not exceed customary brokerage fees and commissions
and shall be responsible for designating only a DTC participant eligible to receive DWAC Shares.

 

Section
6.14. Disclosure Schedule. 

 

(i)
The Company may, from time to time, update a disclosure schedule (the “Disclosure Schedule”) as may be required
to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(i) and Section 7.3(i) (to the extent such condition set forth in Section 7.3(i) relates
to the condition in Section 7.2(i) as of a specific VWAP Purchase Condition Satisfaction Time). For purposes of this Section 6.14, any
disclosure made in a schedule to the Compliance Certificate shall be deemed to be an update of the Disclosure Schedule. Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no update to the Disclosure Schedule pursuant to this Section 6.14 shall cure any breach
of a representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement and made prior to the update and shall not affect any of the
Investor’s rights or remedies with respect thereto.

 

(ii)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Disclosure Schedule or in this Agreement, the information and disclosure contained
in any Schedule of the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosed and incorporated by reference in any other Schedule of the
Disclosure Schedule as though fully set forth in such Schedule for which applicability of such information and disclosure is readily
apparent on its face. The fact that any item of information is disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed to mean that
such information is required to be disclosed by this Agreement. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, such information and
the thresholds (whether based on quantity, qualitative characterization, dollar amounts or otherwise) set forth herein shall not be used
as a basis for interpreting the terms “material” or “Material Adverse Effect” or other similar terms in this
Agreement.

Section
6.15. Delivery of Bring Down Opinions and Compliance Certificates Upon Occurrence of Certain Events. Within three (3) Trading
Days immediately following each time the Company files (i) an annual report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act (including any Form 10-K/A
containing amended financial information or a material amendment to the previously filed Form 10-K); (ii) a quarterly report on Form
10-Q under the Exchange Act; (iii) 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; or (iv) the Initial Registration Statement, any New Registration Statement, or any supplement or post-effective amendment thereto,
and in any case (each, a “Representation Date”), the Company shall (a) deliver to the Investor a Compliance
Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, dated such date, (b) cause to be furnished to the Investor (1) an opinion
from outside counsel to the Company and (2) a negative assurance letter from outside counsel to the Company, in ease case substantially
in the form mutually agreed to by the Company and the Investor prior to the date of this Agreement (each such opinion, a “Bring-Down
Opinion”) and (c) cause to be furnished to the Investor a comfort letter from the Accountant in a form and substance satisfactory
to the Investor and its counsel (in the case of a post-effective amendment, only if such amendment contains amended or new financial
information), modified, as necessary, to address such new financial information or relate to such Registration Statement or post-effective
amendment, or the Prospectus contained therein as then amended or supplemented by such Prospectus Supplement, as applicable (a “Bring-Down
Comfort Letter”). The requirement to provide the documents identified in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 6.15
shall be waived for any Representation Date if the Company or the Investor has given notice to the other party in writing (including
by email correspondence to the individual(s) of the other party set forth in Section 10.4 hereto, if receipt of such correspondence is
actually acknowledged by any individual to whom the notice is sent, other than via auto-reply) or by telephone (confirmed immediately
by verifiable facsimile transmission or email correspondence to the individual(s) of the other party set forth in Section 10.4 hereto)
of the suspension of VWAP Purchases (a “Suspension”), which waiver shall continue until the earlier to occur
of the date the Company delivers a VWAP Purchase Notice hereunder (which for such calendar quarter shall be considered a Representation
Date) and the next occurring Representation Date (which also shall be waived if a Suspension is then in effect). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Company subsequently decides to deliver a VWAP Purchase Notice following a Representation Date when a Suspension was
in effect and did not provide the Investor with the documents identified in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 6.15, then before
the Investor accepts such VWAP Purchase Notice, the Company shall provide the Investor with the documents identified in clauses (a),
(b) and (c) of this Section 6.15, dated as of the date that the VWAP Purchase Notice is accepted by the Investor. For the avoidance of
doubt, at the end of any waiver under this Section 6.15, the Company shall not be required to deliver the documents identified in clauses
(a), (b) and (c) of this Section 6.15 for any Representation Date that has been waived, other than the most recently occurring Representation
Date.

INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section
9.1. Indemnification of Investor. In consideration of the Investor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and acquiring
the Shares hereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a
party, subject to the provisions of this Section 9.1, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Investor, its Affiliates, each
of their respective directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees, representatives and agents (and any other Persons
with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title), each
Person, if any, who controls the Investor (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act),
and the respective directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees, representatives and agents (and any other Persons
with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title) of such
controlling Persons (each, an “Investor Party”), each of which shall be an express third-party beneficiary
of this Article IX, from and against all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses (including
all judgments, amounts paid in settlement, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of defense and investigation) (collectively,
“Damages”) that any Investor Party may suffer or incur (a) as a result of, relating to or arising out of or
based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any 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 other Commission
Document, 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; provided, however, that this indemnity in (a) shall
not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of an untrue statement or omission, or alleged untrue
statement or omission in a Commission Document, made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the
Company by the Investor expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, Prospectus or Prospectus
Supplement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto (it being hereby acknowledged and agreed that the written information
set forth on Exhibit C to the Registration Rights Agreement is the only written information furnished to the Company by or on
behalf of the Investor expressly for use in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement), (b) to the extent of the
aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Authority, 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 any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be
delayed, conditioned or withheld, (c) in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding
by any Governmental Authority, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or
any such alleged untrue statement or omission (whether or not a party), to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (a) or
(b) above, (d) as a result of, relating to or arising out of any breach by the Company of its representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements under this Agreement, or (e) as a result of, relating to or arising out of any other action, suit, claim or proceeding
against an Investor Party arising out of or otherwise in connection with the Transaction Documents (except solely to the extent in the
case of this subsection (e), to the extent any Damage is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, not subject to further appeal,
to have resulted primarily and directly from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Investor Party).

 

    	31

     

    

 

The
Company shall reimburse any Investor Party promptly upon demand (with accompanying presentation of documentary evidence) for all legal
and other costs and expenses reasonably incurred by such Investor Party in connection with (i) any action, suit, claim or proceeding,
whether at law or in equity, to enforce compliance by the Company with any provision of the Transaction Documents or (ii) any other any
action, suit, claim or proceeding, whether at law or in equity, with respect to which it is entitled to indemnification under this Section
9.1.

 

To
the extent that the foregoing undertakings by the Company set forth in this Section 9.1 may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company
shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Damages which is permissible under applicable law,
provided that in no event shall the Investor be obligated to contribute any amount in excess of the fees it actually receives pursuant
to this Agreement.

 

Section
9.2. Indemnification Procedures.

 

(i)
Promptly after an Investor Party receives notice of a claim or the commencement of an action for which the Investor Party intends to
seek indemnification under Section 9.1, the Investor Party will notify the Company in writing of the claim or commencement of the action,
suit or proceeding; provided, however, that failure to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from liability under
Section 9.1, unless and solely to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by the failure to give such notice as evidenced by the
forfeiture of by the Company of substantive rights or defenses. The Company will be entitled to participate in the defense of any claim,
action, suit or proceeding as to which indemnification is being sought, and if the Company acknowledges in writing the obligation to
indemnify the Investor Party against whom the claim or action is brought, the Company may (but will not be required to) assume the defense
against the claim, action, suit or proceeding with counsel satisfactory to the Investor Party. After the Company notifies the Investor
Party that the Company wishes to assume the defense of a claim, action, suit or proceeding, the Company will not be liable for any further
legal or other expenses incurred by the Investor Party in connection with the defense against the claim, action, suit or proceeding unless
(a) the employment of counsel by the Investor Party has been authorized in writing by the Company, (b) the Investor Party has reasonably
concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or another Investor Party that are different
from or in addition to those available to the Company, (c) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the
Investor Party) between an Investor Party and the Company (in which case the Company will not have the right to direct the defense of
such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (d) the Company has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action
or counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in each case, 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 Company.
It is understood that the Company 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 (plus one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction)
admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such similarly situated Investor Parties. The Investor will reasonably
cooperate with the Company in the defense of any such action for which the Company assumes the defense. The Company will not be liable
for any settlement of any action effected without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed
or conditioned. The Company shall not, 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
(whether or not any indemnified party is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (x) includes an express and
unconditional release of each indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, from all liability
arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (y) 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.

 

    	32

     

    

 

(ii)
In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs
of this Article IX for any reason is held to be unavailable or insufficient to hold an Investor Party harmless, the Company and the Investor
Party will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) to
which the Company and the Investor Party 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 Investor on the other hand. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and
the Investor Party on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the aggregate of all
VWAP Purchase Amounts (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total proceeds received by the Indemnified Party
for the sale of Shares to bona fide third parties net of the aggregate VWAP Purchase Price paid to the Indemnifying Party under this
Agreement (the “Discount”). 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 Investor Party, 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 Investor Party, 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 Investor agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 9.2(ii) 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 9.2(ii) shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this Section 9.2(ii), 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 9.2(i) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2(ii), the Investor shall not be required to contribute
any amount in excess of the aggregate Discount 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 9.2(ii), any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Securities Act, any
Affiliates of the Investor Party and any officers, directors, partners, employees or agents of the Investor Party or any of its Affiliates,
will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and each director of the Company and each officer 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 9.2(ii), 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 9.2(ii) 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. 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 9.2(i) hereof.

 

The
remedies provided for in this Article IX are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available
to any Investor Party at law or in equity.

provided the same disclosure to the Investor or its counsel for review in connection with a previous filing or (ii) any Prospectus Supplement
if it contains disclosure that does not reference the Investor, its purchases hereunder or any aspect of the Transaction Documents or
the transactions contemplated thereby.

 

Section
10.15. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and, in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction
shall determine that any one or more of the provisions or part of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other
provision or part of a provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be reformed and construed as if such invalid or illegal
