promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of
the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC,
contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in

principles, consistently applied, during the periods involved and
fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial
position of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the
dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations and
cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of
unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments). Except
as set forth in the financial statements of the Company included in
the SEC Documents, the Company has no liabilities, contingent or
otherwise, other than (i) liabilities incurred in the ordinary
course of business subsequent to December 31, 2020, and (ii)
obligations under contracts and commitments incurred in the

the 1934 Act. For the avoidance of doubt, filing of the documents
required in this Section 3(e) via the SEC’s Electronic Data

Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by
which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue

issuance and sale of the Securities will not obligate the Company
to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any Person
and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities
to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under
any of such securities. All of the outstanding shares of capital
stock of the Company are duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all
federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding

others is required for the issuance and sale of the Securities.
There are no stockholders agreements, voting agreements or other
similar agreements with respect to the Company’s capital
stock to which the Company is a party or, to the knowledge of the
Company, between or among any of the Company’s

agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive
covenant in favor of any third party, and the continued employment
of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the
foregoing matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in
compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and
regulations relating to employment and employment practices, terms
and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where the
failure to be in compliance could not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

 

 

11

 

 

(l) Compliance. Neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary: (i) is in default under or in violation of (and
no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or
lapse of time or both, would result in a default by the Company or
any Subsidiary under), nor has the Company or any Subsidiary
received notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it
is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any
other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it
or any of its properties is bound (whether or not such default or
violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any judgment,
decree or order of any court, arbitrator or other governmental
authority, or (iii) is or has been in violation of any statute,
rule, ordinance or regulation of any governmental authority,
including without limitation all foreign, federal, state and local
laws relating to taxes, other than tax payments related to payroll
that are late, environmental protection, occupational health and
safety, product quality and safety and employment and labor
matters, except in each case as could not have or reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(m) Regulatory Permits. The Company
and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and
permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign
regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective
businesses as described in the SEC Reports, except where the
failure to possess such permits could not reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”), and
neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of
proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any
Material Permit.

 

(n) Title to Assets. The Company
and the Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple
to all real property owned by them and good and marketable title in
all personal property owned by them that is material to the
business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, in each case free and
clear of all Liens, except for (i) Liens as do not materially
affect the value of such property and do not materially interfere
with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the
Company and the Subsidiaries and (ii) Liens for the payment of
federal, state or other taxes, for which appropriate reserves have
been made therefor in accordance with GAAP and, the payment of
which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties. Any real
property and facilities held under lease by the Company and the
Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and
enforceable leases with which the Company and the Subsidiaries are
in compliance.

patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications,
service marks, trade names, trade secrets, inventions, copyrights,
licenses and other intellectual property rights and similar rights
as described in the SEC Reports as necessary or required for use in
connection with their respective businesses and which the failure
to so have could have a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the
“Intellectual
Property Rights”). None of, and neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary has received a notice (written or otherwise)
that any of, the Intellectual Property Rights has expired,
terminated or been abandoned, or is expected to expire or terminate
or be abandoned, within two (2) years from the date of this
Agreement. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received,
since the date of the latest audited financial statements included
within the SEC Reports, a written notice of a claim or otherwise
has any knowledge that the Intellectual Property Rights violate or
infringe upon the rights of any Person, except as could not have or
reasonably be expected to not have a Material Adverse Effect. To
the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights
are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another
Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and
its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect
the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual
properties, except where failure to do so could not, individually
or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

(p) Insurance. The Company and the
Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial
responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as
are prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company
and the Subsidiaries are engaged, including, but not limited to,
directors and officers insurance coverage at least equal to the
aggregate Subscription Amount. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to
renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage
expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may
be necessary to continue its business without a significant
increase in cost.

 

(q) Transactions with Affiliates and
Employees. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, none of
the officers or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary and, to

providing for the borrowing of money from or lending of money to or
otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or
such employee or, to the knowledge of the Company, any entity in
which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial
interest or is an officer, director, trustee, stockholder, member
or partner, in each case in excess of $120,000 other than for: (i)
payment of salary or consulting fees for services rendered, (ii)
reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and
(iii) other employee benefits, including stock option agreements
under any stock option plan of the Company. All employee salaries
and contractor fees have been paid to date and no such amounts are
outstanding or past due.

Company and the Subsidiaries have established disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d-15(e)) for the Company and the Subsidiaries and designed such
disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports 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. The Company’s certifying
officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure
controls and procedures of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of
the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic
report under the Exchange Act (such date, the
“Evaluation
Date”). The Company
presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the
Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on
their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation
Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over

over financial reporting of the Company and its

conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become an
“investment company” subject to registration under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market

liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (y) for any
settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the

sentences, no ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required,
nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or
notarization) of any Notice of Exercise form be required in order
to exercise the Warrant. The Company shall honor exercises of the
Warrant and shall deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the
terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction
Documents.

 

4.9           DTC
Program. For so long as any Warrant is outstanding, the
Company will employ as the Transfer Agent for the Common Stock and
Warrant Shares a participant in the DTC Automated Securities
Transfer Program and cause the Common Stock to be transferable
pursuant to such program.

 

4.10        
Subsequent
Equity Sales. From the date
hereof until sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, neither the
Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue, enter into any agreement to
issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares
of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, except for an Exempt
Issuance.

 

4.11        
Subsequent
Financing; Most Favored Nations. From the date hereof until the one year
anniversary of the date hereof, upon any issuance by the Company of
its securities for cash consideration, (a
“Subsequent
Financing”), Purchaser
may elect, in its sole discretion, to exchange (in lieu of
conversion), if applicable, all or some of the Securities then held
for any securities or units issued in a Subsequent Financing on a
$1.00 for $1.00 basis.  The Company shall provide the
Purchaser with notice of any such Subsequent Financing in the
manner set forth below.  Additionally, if in such Subsequent
Financing there are any contractual provisions or side letters that
provide terms more favorable to the investors than the terms
provided for hereunder, then the Company shall specifically notify
the Purchaser of such additional or more favorable terms and such
terms, at Purchaser’s option, shall become a part of the
transaction documents with the Purchaser.  The types of terms
contained in another security that may be more favorable to the
holder of such security include, but are not limited to, terms
addressing stock sale price, price per share, and warrant coverage.
For purposes of illustration, if a Subsequent Financing were to
occur whereby the Company sells and issues a convertible note with
a conversion price that includes a discount to the market price of
its Common Stock, the Purchaser will be entitled to receive the
same convertible note on the exact same terms on a dollar for
dollar basis via the exchange of the Securities the Holder holds on
the date of the sale and issuance of the convertible
note.

 

4.12.       
Participation in
Future Financing.

 

(a)   
From
the date hereof until the date that is the 12 month anniversary of
the Closing Date, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents for cash
consideration, indebtedness or a combination of units hereof (a
“Subsequent
Financing”), Purchaser shall have the right to
participate up to an amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to
100% of the Subsequent Financing (the “Participation Maximum”)
on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the
Subsequent Financing.

 

 

22

 

 

(b) At least four (4)
Trading Days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the
Company shall deliver to Purchaser a written notice of its
intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which
Pre-Notice shall ask such Purchaser if it wants to review the
details of such financing (such additional notice, a
“Subsequent
Financing Notice”). Upon the request of Purchaser, and
only upon a request by Purchaser, for a Subsequent Financing
Notice, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1)
Trading Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing
Notice to Purchaser. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe
in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent
Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder
and the Person or Persons through or with whom such Subsequent
Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include a term sheet
or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.

 

(c) Should Purchaser
desire to participate in such Subsequent Financing, it must provide
written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (New York
City time) on the fourth (4th) Trading Day after
receipt of the Pre-Notice that such Purchaser is willing to
participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of
Purchaser’s participation, and representing and warranting
that Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for
investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing
Notice. If the Company receives no such notice from Purchaser as of
such fourth (4th) Trading Day,
Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does
not elect to participate.

 

(d) If by 5:30 p.m.
(New York City time) on the fourth (4th) Trading Day after
the Purchaser has received the Pre-Notice, notifications by the
Purchaser of its willingness to participate in the Subsequent
Financing (or to cause their designees to participate) is, in the
aggregate, less than the total amount of the Participation Maximum,
then the Company may effect the remaining portion of such
Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Persons set forth in
the Subsequent Financing Notice.

 

(e) The Company must
provide Purchaser with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and
the Purchaser will again have the right of participation set forth
above in this Section 4.12, if the Subsequent Financing subject to
the initial Subsequent Financing Notice is not consummated for any
reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice
within thirty (30) Trading Days after the date of the initial
Subsequent Financing Notice.

 

(f) The
Company and Purchaser agree that if Purchaser elects to participate
in the Subsequent Financing, the transaction documents related to
the Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision
whereby Purchaser shall be required to agree to any restrictions on
trading as to any of the Securities purchased hereunder or be
required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant
any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, this
Agreement, without the prior written consent of
Purchaser.

 

(g) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 4.12 and unless otherwise
agreed to by Purchaser, the Company shall either confirm in writing
to Purchaser that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent
Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its
intention to issue the securities in the Subsequent Financing, in
either case in such a manner such that such Purchaser will not be
in possession of any material, non-public information, by the tenth
(10th) Business Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing
Notice. If by such tenth (10th) Business Day, no public disclosure
regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing
has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such
transaction has been received by Purchaser, such transaction shall
be deemed to have been abandoned and Purchaser shall not be deemed
to be in possession of any material, non-public information with
respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

 

 

23

 

 

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section
4.12 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance.

 

4.13           Blue
Sky Filings. The Company shall take such action as the
Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain
an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the
Purchaser under applicable securities or “Blue Sky”
laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence
of such actions promptly upon request of the
Purchaser.

in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of
any such waived provision is sought. No waiver of any default with
respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this
Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future
or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other
provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or
omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner
impair the exercise of any such right.

 

5.6           Headings.

part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect
any of the provisions hereof.

assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the

5.8.

 

5.9           Governing
Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall
be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to the
principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all
legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and
defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any
other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto
or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders,
partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced
exclusively in the state or federal courts sitting in the Borough
of Manhattan, New York, New York Each party hereby irrevocably
submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal
courts sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York for

not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it
is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court,
that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an
inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby
irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to
process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by
mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or
overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the

25

 

 

5.10           Survival.
The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive
each Closing and the delivery of the Securities.

 

5.11           Execution.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of
which when taken together shall be considered one and the same
agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been
signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being
understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In
the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission
or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file,
such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the
party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed)
with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or
“.pdf” signature page were an original
thereof.

 

5.12           Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement
is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall
remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected,
impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their
commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative
means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that
contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It
is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the
parties that they would have executed the remaining terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of
such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or
unenforceable.

 

5.13           Rescission
and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions
of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser
exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction
Document and the Company does not timely perform its related
obligations within the periods therein provided, then the Purchaser
may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time
upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or
election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future
actions and rights.

 

5.14           Replacement
of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing
any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for
and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in
lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument,
but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new
certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay
any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity)
associated with the issuance of such replacement
Securities.

 

5.15           Remedies.
In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided
herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the
Purchaser and the Company will be entitled to specific performance
under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary
damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by
reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction
Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action
for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a
remedy at law would be adequate.

 

 

 

26

 

 

5.16           
Payment Set Aside.
To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the
Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or the Purchaser
enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or
payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any
part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by
or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the
Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law
(including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or
federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the
extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued
in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or
such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

 

5.17           
Liquidated Damages.
The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated
damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a
continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until

paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security
pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or other amounts
are due and payable shall have been canceled.

 

5.18           
Saturdays, Sundays,
Holidays, etc.  If the last or
appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any
right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then
such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next
succeeding Business Day.

 

5.19           
Construction. The
parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel
have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction
Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the
effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting
party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the
Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each
and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in
any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse
and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and
other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the
