hereof) or (B) a Sale of the Corporation or a transaction with respect to such Subsidiary which, if it had instead occurred with

(a)            Grant.
Each of the Investor Parties hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to I-Pulse and the non-transferring Investor Parties (each,
an “Offered Party”) a right of first refusal (the “Right of First Refusal”) to purchase all the

price and on the same terms and conditions as those offered to the prospective transferee.

 

    8 

     

    

 

(b)            Notice.
In the event of any proposed transfer of the Transfer Shares by the Investor Party (a “Proposed Transfer”), the Investor

Offered Party must deliver notice to the Corporation and the Investor Party that it intends to exercise its Right of First Refusal as
to its pro rata portion or as to all of the Transfer Shares with respect to any Proposed Transfer within fifteen (15) Business Days after

Basis, then multiplied by (ii) (A) the total number of Transfer Shares minus (B) the number of Transfer Shares to be purchased

(15) Business Days, it shall lose its Right of First Refusal.

 

(c)            Closing.
In the event any Offered Party elects to exercise its Right of First Refusal with respect to the Transfer Shares, the closing of the purchase
of the Transfer Shares shall take place, and all payments from the Offered Party shall be delivered to the Investor Party, fifteen (15)
days from the end of the fifteen Business Day notice period in Section 2.4(b), or on such date as the Offered Party and the
Investor Party shall mutually agree.

 

(d)            Violation
of Right of First Refusal. If the Investor Party becomes obligated to sell any Transfer Shares to a Offered Patty pursuant to this
Agreement and fails to deliver such Transfer Shares in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.4, the Offered Party may,
at its option, in addition to all other remedies it may have, send to the Investor Party the purchase price for such Transfer Shares as
specified in the Proposed Transfer Notice and require the Corporation to transfer to the name of the Offered Party on the Corporation’s
books the certificate or certificates representing the Transfer Shares to be sold.

 

(e)            Board
Approval. Upon receipt by the Corporation of the Proposed Transfer Notice, the Board shall consider the Proposed Transfer and shall
approve such Proposed Transfer, unless it determines in its commercially reasonable judgment that (i) the transferee is a competitor
of the Corporation or (ii) the Proposed Transfer would not otherwise be in the best interests of the Corporation.

 

(f)            Lapse.
If the Board approves the Proposed Transfer pursuant to Section 2.4(e), and the Offered Parties do not, in the aggregate,
give notice to exercise for all of the Transfer Shares within the fifteen (15) Business Day notice period, then the Investor Party will
have a period of sixty (60) days from the later of (i) the date on which approval of the Board is given in Section 2.4(e) or
(ii) the end of the fifteen (15) Business Day notice period, in which to complete the Proposed Transfer of any Transfer Shares not

is not completed within such sixty (60) day period, the notice provisions in this Section 2.4 will be reset and the Investor
Party will be required to deliver a new Proposed Transfer Notice to the Offered Parties and the Corporation if it wants to complete the
original or any other Proposed Transfer.

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

    11 

     

    

 

4.2            Piggyback
Registration.

 

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

 

(b)            If
a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten registration and the managing underwriters advise the Corporation in writing that in then
opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number that can be sold in an orderly manner
in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Corporation, the Corporation shall include in such registration: (i) first,
the Securities the Corporation proposes to sell, if any, and (ii) second, the Registrable Securities and any other securities requested
to be included in such registration, pro rata among the holders of such Registrable Securities and such other parties on the basis of
the number of securities owned by each such holder.

 

4.3            Lock-Up.
Each Investor Party holding Registrable Securities shall not sell or otherwise transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for
the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, of any Corporation Securities
held by such holder (other than those included in the registration) during the one hundred eighty (180) day period following the effective
date of the registration statement for an initial public offering of Corporation Securities and during the ninety (90) day period following
the effective date of any other registration statement of the Corporation filed under the Securities Act (or such other period as may
be requested by the Corporation or an underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution
of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions), provided that all (x) officers and directors of
the Corporation and (y) holders (other than officers and directors of the Corporation) of at least one percent (1%) of any class
of Corporation Securities covered by the applicable registration statement (on a Fully Diluted Basis) are bound by or have entered into
similar agreements. The obligations described in this Section 4.3 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to a
transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Corporation may impose stop-transfer instructions
and may stamp each such certificate with the second legend set forth in Section 3.1 with respect to the shares of Corporation
Securities subject to the forgoing restriction until the end of such one hundred eighty (180) day (or other) period. Each holder of Registrable
Securities agrees to execute a market standoff agreement with said underwriters in customary form consistent with the provisions of this
Section 4.3.

 

    12 

     

    

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

    13 

     

    

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

    14 

     

    

 

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

 

4.6            Indemnification.

 

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

 

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

 

    15 

     

    

 

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

    16 

     

    

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

less than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock (excluding for the purpose of such calculation
the issuance after the date hereof of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of warrants or options to purchase Common Stock by employees
or management of the Corporation, or the issuance or exercise after the date hereof
of Exempted Securities), I-Pulse, and Investor Parties, where applicable, will vote all shares of Common Stock owned, held or controlled
by them, from time to time and at all times, at each annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation at which an election
of directors takes place, or in the case of any written consent of the stockholders in place of such a meeting, in favor of the Investor
Board Nominees being elected to the Board or removed therefrom, as the case may be, in accordance with the Investor Majority’s
discretion. The Investor Board Nominees may only be removed from the Board (i) for cause, (ii) if such removal is directed by or approved
by the affirmative vote of the Investor Majority, or (iii) if the Investors are no longer so entitled to nominate such director. Any
vacancy created by the resignation, removal or death of the director nominated pursuant to this Section 5.18(a). shall be filled
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.18(a). In the event that the Investors lose their right or fail to nominate an Investor
Board Nominee, and as long as the Investors hold and continue to hold 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation’s
Common Stock (excluding for the purpose of such calculation the issuance after the date hereof of shares of Common Stock upon exercise
of warrants or options to purchase Common Stock by employees or management of the Corporation, or the issuance or exercise after the
date hereof of Exempted Securities), the Investor Majority shall be entitled to appoint a representative of the Investors to attend all
meetings of its Board (and any committee thereof) in a nonvoting observer capacity and, in that respect, the Corporation shall give such
representative copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials that it provides to its directors at the same time and in
the same manner as provided to such directors. The Investors shall, and shall cause the nonvoting observer representative to, keep all
such information strictly confidential and shall not use such information for any purpose other than with respect to their respective
investments in the Corporation.

 

(b)            I-Pulse
Board Nominees. The Corporation agrees that I-Pulse shall have the right to nominate five (5) members to the Board (the “I-Pulse
Board Nominees”) and/or remove and replace the I-Pulse Board Nominees at the discretion of I-Pulse. The Corporation agrees
to take all such actions and do all such things as may be necessary at the request of I-Pulse to appoint, or remove and replace, as the
case may be, any I-Pulse Board Nominee as a director of the Corporation. As long as I-Pulse and its Affiliates hold and continue to hold
20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock (excluding for the purpose of such calculation the issuance
after the date hereof of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of warrants or options to purchase Common Stock by employees or management
of the Corporation, or the issuance or exercise after the date hereof of Exempted Securities), the Investors Parties will vote all shares
of Common Stock owned, held or controlled by them, from time to time and at all times, at each annual or special meeting of stockholders
of the Corporation at which an election of directors takes place, or in the case of any written consent of the stockholders in place
of such a meeting, in favor of the I-Pulse Board Nominees being elected to the Board or removed therefrom, as the case may be, in accordance
with I-Pulse’s discretion. The I-Pulse Board Nominees may only be removed from the Board (i) for cause, or (ii) if such removal
is directed by or approved by I-Pulse.

 

(c)            Committee
Designations. So long as the Investor Majority has the right to nominate the Investor Board Nominees pursuant to Section 5.18(a),
the Investor Majority shall be entitled to designate an Investor Board Nominee to any current Board committee or any Board committee later
formed by the Corporation.

 

    21 

     

    

 

(d)            Meetings;
Quorum. The Board will convene formally on a quarterly basis. In addition, any director may call a special meeting of the Board upon
three (3) Business Days’ prior notice. At each quarterly meeting of the Board, there will be a management discussion including,
but not limited to, the matters outlined in the monthly management report. Directors shall be permitted to attend any meeting of the Board
either in person or by teleconference. The quorum for a meeting of the Board, duly convened and held, will be a majority of the directors
then in office including, if the Investor Board Nominees are then members of the Board, one Investor Board Nominee.

 

(e)            Expenses.
The reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by a director in attending any meeting of the Board or a committee thereof
or a general shareholders’ meeting shall be reimbursed by the Corporation.

 

(f)             Hiring
of Management. The decision to recruit or hire any manager or employee of the Corporation or any Subsidiary whose gross annual salary
is greater than US$300,000 shall be decided at a duly convened meeting of the Board.

 

(g)            Termination
of Rights and Obligations. All of the Corporation’s, I-Pulse’s and the Investor Parties’ respective rights and obligations
under this Section 5.18 will not apply to and will terminate immediately before the earlier of (i) an initial public offering and/or
listing on a recognized international stock exchange of Corporation Securities and (ii) a Sale of the Corporation. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, from and after the date of an I-Pulse Spin-Out, I-Pulse shall have no further rights or obligations under
this Section 5.18.

 

5.19          Representations
and Warranties. Each party hereto represents and warrants to each other party hereto that (a) it is authorized to execute this Agreement,
(b) it has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder, (c) this Agreement is duly executed
and delivered by it and constitutes the valid and binding agreement of such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with its
terms, and (d) it has full knowledge of the terms of this Agreement and has consented to this Agreement.

 

5.20          Termination
of Rights. All of the rights granted under this Agreement to the Investor Parties, and all of the obligations under this Agreement
of I-Pulse, the Investors, and the Corporation, will immediately terminate and no longer apply at such time as the Investor Parties cease
to hold any of the issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock.

(i) collectively hold a majority of the outstanding Common Stock and (ii) enter into an agreement for a Sale of the Corporation or
propose to cause the Corporation to enter into an agreement for a Sale of the Corporation, then each of the Investor Parties and

    22 

     

    

 

(b)            to,
in its capacity as a stockholder, take all action necessary or appropriate requested by the Selling Holders to cause or enable the Corporation
to enter into an agreement for, and to consummate, the Sale of the Corporation; and

 

(c)            to
execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Sale of the Corporation as shall reasonably
be requested by the Corporation or the Selling Holders in order to carry out the terms and provision of this Article 6, including,

with any proposed Sale of the Corporation shall be subject to the following conditions:

provisions of Section 6.1 shall not apply to any Sale of the Corporation in which the acquiring Person is an Affiliate of the Corporation,
I-Pulse or an Ivanhoe Party, as determined immediately before giving effect to such Sale of the Corporation;

 

(b)            such
Investor Party shall not be required to make any representation, covenant or warranty in connection with such Sale of the Corporation,
other than as to such Person’s ownership and authority to sell, free of liens, claims and encumbrances, the shares of the Corporation
proposed to be sold by such Investor Party;

 

(c)            such
Investor Party shall not be required to incur indemnification obligations in connection with such representations, covenants or warranties

such Investor Party); and

 

(d)            the
consideration payable with respect to each share in each class or series as a result of such Sale of the Corporation is the same (except

Revocation. The agreements contained in this Article 6 are coupled with an interest and except as provided in this Agreement

SPECIAL
VOTING RIGHTS

 

7.1            Matters
Requiring Special Approval. As long as the Corporation is not a reporting company under the Securities Act or listed on a national
securities exchange, and as long as the Investor Majority is entitled to nominate the Investor Board Nominees pursuant to Section 5.18(a),
the Corporation shall not (by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise) without first obtaining the approval (by vote or written
consent, as provided by law) of a Super Majority of the Board:

 

(a)            effect
any restructuring involving the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries involving an amount greater than US$70,000,000 or which results
in a fundamental change in the nature of the business of any such companies, except if simultaneously or shortly thereafter, and to the
extent this restructuring generates cash, there is a cash distribution, through a dividend payment or otherwise, to the Investor Parties
of the restructuring proceeds, pro rata based on its shares in the issued and outstanding capital of the Corporation;

 

(b)            effect
any business or asset acquisition or disposal by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, involving an amount greater than US$70,000,000;

 

(c)            effect
any acquisition, divestiture, merger, joint venture, share or unit exchange, tender offer, consolidation, redemption or any other extraordinary

the drag-along right in Section 6.1;

 

(d)            effect

through a loan or otherwise, to another Subsidiary, except if less than US$20,000,000 per annum in the aggregate;

 

(e)            effect

For
the avoidance of doubt, (i) an I-Pulse Spin-Out shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1 and (ii) the provisions
of this Section 7.1 shall not apply to any action taken by a Subsidiary that, at the time such action is taken, is a reporting
company under the Securities Act or listed on a national securities exchange (or to any action taken by a direct or indirect Subsidiary

then in respect of such period the financial statements delivered pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.1 shall
be the consolidated and consolidating financial statements of the Corporation and all such consolidated Subsidiaries.

 

Notwithstanding
anything else in this Section 8.1 to the contrary, the Corporation may cease providing the information set forth in this Section

of a registration statement if it reasonably concludes it must do so to comply with the Commission rules applicable to such registration
statement and related offering; provided, that the Corporation’s covenants under this Section 8.1 shall be reinstated
at such time as the Corporation is no longer actively employing its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement
to become effective.

 

8.2            Corporate
Opportunities. I-Pulse hereby agrees that, prior to the occurrence of an I-Pulse Spin-Out, it will, and will cause its controlled
Affiliates to, share with the Corporation any knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for
the Corporation, and to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case
may be.

 

    25 

     

    

 

8.3            Certificate
of Incorporation and By-Laws to Be Consistent. The Corporation and (prior to an I-Pulse Spin-Out) I-Pulse shall take or cause to be
taken all lawful action necessary or appropriate to ensure that neither of the Certificate of Incorporation or the By- Laws of the Corporation
nor any of the corresponding constituent documents of any Subsidiary contain any provisions inconsistent with this Agreement or which
would in any way nullify or impair the terms of this Agreement or the rights of the Investor Parties hereunder

 

8.4            Confidentiality.
Each of Century and Iridium agrees it will keep confidential and will not disclose, divulge, or use for any purpose (other than to monitor
its investment in the Corporation) any confidential information obtained from the Corporation (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
or otherwise, and whether on, before or after the date hereof), including the fact that the other Investor Parties are stockholders of
the Corporation, unless such confidential information (a) is known or becomes known to the public in general (other than as a result of
a breach of this Section 8.4 by such Investor Party or any Person described in clause (i) or (ii) below), (b) is or has been independently
developed or conceived by such Investor Party without use of the Corporation’s confidential information, or (c) is or has been made
known or disclosed to such Investor Party by a third party without a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may
have to the Corporation; provided, however, that such Investor Party may disclose confidential information: (i) to its attorneys,
accountants, consultants, and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their services in connection with monitoring its investment
in the Corporation; (ii) to any Affiliate, partner, member or stockholder of such Investor Party in the ordinary course of business, provided
that in the case of clause (i) or (ii), that such Investor Party informs such Person that such information is confidential and directs
such Person to maintain the confidentiality of such information, and provided further, that in the case of clause (i) or (ii), such Investor
party shall be responsible for any failure of such Person to maintain the confidentiality of such information; (iii) as requested, ordered
or required by any court or other governmental body (including pursuant to any subpoena), provided that such Investor Party provides the
Corporation with prompt notice of such request, order or requirement to enable the Corporation to seek a protective order or otherwise
to prevent or restrict such disclosure; (iv) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or rights under this Agreement; (v)
as may otherwise be required by applicable law, rule or regulation; or (vi) to a prospective transferee of Corporation Securities that
agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 8.4. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 8.4 shall
be deemed to prohibit any Investor Party (or any Affiliate, partner, member or stockholder of such Investor Party) that is an officer,
director or employee of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries from disclosing, divulging or using confidential information of the
Corporation and its Subsidiaries in connection with the performance, discharge and exercise of such Person’s duties, responsibilities
and powers in his or her capacity as such.

8.5            Use
of Investor Party Names. The Corporation agrees that it will not (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to), without the prior
written consent of the applicable Investor Party, use in advertising or publicity or otherwise disclose the name of such Investor Party
or any trade name, trademark, trade device, service mark or similar symbol that serves to identify such Investor Party. Notwithstanding
the immediately preceding sentence, the Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall have the right to identify an Investor Party as a stockholder
of the Corporation (i) to their respective attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other professional advisors, provided that the Corporation
or such Subsidiary informs such Person that such information is confidential and directs such Person to maintain the confidentiality
of such information, and provided further, that the Corporation shall be responsible for any failure of such Person to maintain the confidentiality
of such information; (ii) to any other stockholder of the Corporation who requests such information; (iii) as requested, ordered or required
by any court or other governmental body (including pursuant to any subpoena); (iv) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement
or rights under this Agreement; (v) as may otherwise be required by applicable law, rule or regulation; or (vi) to a prospective source
of equity or debt financing to the Corporation or any such Subsidiary that executes a customary confidentiality undertaking in favor
of the Corporation or such Subsidiary.
