			RECITALS
		

		
			WHEREAS, the Company desires to continue to employ the Executive as its President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive desires to continue to be so employed by the Company on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
		

		
			NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
		

		
			AGREEMENT
		

		
			1.        Position and Duties. The Executive shall serve as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (including its subsidiary The ONE Group LLC) and, in such capacity shall be responsible for the general management of the business, affairs and operations of the Company, shall perform such duties as are customarily performed by a president and chief executive officer of a company of a similar size and shall have such power and authority as shall reasonably be required to enable him to perform his duties hereunder; provided, however, that in exercising such power and authority and performing such duties, he shall at all times be subject to the authority, control and direction of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). The Executive shall report to the Board and shall devote substantially his full business time and attention to the business and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Executive shall perform his duties and responsibilities in a diligent, trustworthy, businesslike and efficient manner. The Executive shall not engage in any other business activities that could reasonably be expected to conflict with the Executive’s duties, responsibilities and obligations hereunder.  The Company acknowledges that Executive from time to time may serve as an independent director on the board of directors of a public or private company, and further acknowledges that Executive currently serves as a director on the board of directors of Transact Technologies, Inc.
		

		
			2.        Term. The employment hereunder shall be for a term of four (4) years commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the four (4) year anniversary thereof (the “Expiration Date”), unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement (the “Term of Employment”). Thereafter, this Agreement shall automatically be renewed and the Term of Employment extended for additional consecutive terms of one (1) year (each a “Renewal Term”), unless such renewal is objected to by either the Company or the Executive upon ninety (90) days’ written notice prior to the commencement of the next Renewal Term. In the event of renewal, the last day of each Renewal Term shall be deemed the new Expiration Date.
		

		
			

		 

		

		
			3.        Compensation and Related Matters.  
		

		
			(a)        Base Salary. As compensation for services rendered hereunder, the Executive shall initially receive a salary of $500,000 annually (the “Base Salary”), which shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s then prevailing payroll practices.  The Executive may receive increases (but not decreases) in his Base Salary as the Board, or the compensation committee of the Board, may approve in its sole discretion from time to time; provided that the Executive’s Base Salary will be reviewed for potential upward adjustment not less often than annually.
		

		
			(b)        Bonus. The Executive will be eligible to receive an annual, discretionary bonus (the “Bonus”) based in part upon achievement of individual and corporate performance objectives as determined by the Board. The Bonus shall be targeted at one hundred percent (100%) of the Executive’s then-effective annual Base Salary. The Executive shall be eligible to receive a Bonus in excess of the targeted Bonus if Company performance exceeds 100% of the targeted goals, and a Bonus below the target amount may be payable if actual performance at least equals a minimum threshold, each as approved by the Board in consultation with the Executive at the time the annual performance goals are established. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whether the Executive receives a Bonus and the amount of any such Bonus, will be determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion, except that any portion of the Bonus that Board determines to be based on the targeted goals will be considered non-discretionary and payable based on achievement of such goals. The Bonus will be deemed earned provided that the Executive is employed as of December 31st of the calendar year to which such Bonus relates and is not in material breach of this Agreement as of the payment date. The Bonus, if any, will be paid no later than April 30 of the year following the year to which the performance objectives relate.
		

		
			(c)        Employment Location.  Company acknowledges and agrees that Executive will be based out of Denver, Colorado for the Term of Employment.  
		

		
			(d)        Other Benefits. The Executive shall be entitled to participate in all incentive, savings and retirement plans, all welfare benefit plans and all other perquisites of employment on the same terms and conditions generally available to other executives of the Company having comparable rank, authority and seniority to the Executive. The Executive understands that, except when prohibited by applicable law or with respect to Section 5(e), the Company’s benefit plans and fringe benefits may be cancelled, changes, modified, replaced, terminated, or amended by the Company from time to time in its sole discretion so long as such revisions do not have a disproportionately negative impact on the Executive vis-à-vis other Company employees, to the extent applicable.
		

		
			(e)        Vacation; Holiday Pay and Sick Leave. The Executive shall be entitled to four (4) weeks’ paid vacation in each calendar year, which if not taken, may not be carried over from one calendar year to the next. Executive shall receive holiday pay and paid sick leave as provided to other executive employees of the Company. Upon cessation of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive shall receive pay for all accrued and unused vacation, calculated at his Base Salary rate in effect at the time of the cessation of his employment, provided that the amount of vacation that Executive shall be entitled to accrue during the Term shall be in accordance with Company policy.

			(f)        Withholding. All amounts payable to the Executive under this Section 3 shall be subject to all required federal, state and local withholding, payroll and insurance taxes.
		

		
			4.        Termination. The Executive’s employment may be terminated and this Agreement terminated pursuant to this Section 4.  Upon termination of Executive’s employment for any reason (whether voluntarily or involuntarily), Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all offices and directorships, if any, and then held with the Company or any of its affiliates, and, at the Company’s request, Executive shall execute such documents as are necessary or desirable to effectuate such resignations.
		

		
			(a)        Death. The Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon his death.
		

		
			(b)        Disability. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment upon written notice if the Executive becomes subject to a Disability. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the absence of the Executive from the Executive’s duties with the Company on a full-time basis for 180 consecutive business days as a result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness, which is determined to be total and permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and reasonably acceptable to the Executive or the Executive’s legal representative. Executive hereby consents to such examination and consultation regarding his health and ability to perform as aforesaid.
		

		
			(c)        Termination by Company for Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment for Cause upon written notice. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean  (i) failure by Executive to substantially perform material duties hereunder, after written notice requesting such performance; (ii) Executive's material violation of a material Company policy that results in significant and demonstrable damage to the Company's business or reputation, which, to the extent such failure is curable, Executive does not cure within a period of thirty (30) days (the “Cause Cure Period”) after written notice of such failure is provided to Executive by the Company; or (iii) Executive's conviction of or plea of guilty to any felony.
		

		
			(d)        Termination by the Company Without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time without Cause upon thirty (30) days prior written notice. During the 30-day notice period, the Executive shall remain an active employee of the Company and will be expected to continue to perform his duties in a satisfactory manner, and in compliance with all of the Company’s policies and procedures. However, the Company may, at its sole discretion, both place the Executive on paid leave and suspend all of his duties and powers for all or part of the applicable notice period.  For purposes of this agreement, non-renewal of this agreement by the Company is to be considered Termination by the Company Without Cause.
		

		
			(e)        Termination by the Executive without Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his employment at any time without Good Reason, upon 30 days prior written notice. During the 30-day notice period, the Executive shall remain an active Company employee and will be expected to continue to perform his duties in a satisfactory manner, and in compliance with all of the Company’s policies and procedures. However, the Company may, at its sole discretion, either place the Executive on paid leave or suspend all of his duties and powers for all or part of the applicable notice period.

			(f)        Termination by the Executive for Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his employment for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” is defined as, without his consent, (i) at any time following a Change of Control (as defined below) the relocation of Executive’s principal place of employment to a location more than 50 miles from his current location in Denver, Colorado, (ii) a material reduction in his Base Salary or target bonus, (iii) the Company’s material breach of this Agreement, or (iv) a material diminution in Executive’s title and/or duties, responsibilities or authority.  No resignation shall be deemed a resignation for Good Reason unless the Executive shall have first provided the Company with written notice of the conditions constituting Good Reason and the Company shall have failed to cure such conditions within thirty (30) days following its receipt of the notice (the “Good Reason Cure Period”).
		

		
			(g)        Expiration of the Term.  Executive’s employment will terminate automatically upon the Expiration Date if either party has elected not to renew the Term of Employment.    
		

		
			(h)        Termination Date. The “Termination Date” means: (i) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by his death under Section 4(a), the date of his death; (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated on account of his Disability, as finally determined under Section 4(b), the date set forth in the Company’s written termination notice to the Executive; (iii) if the Company terminates the Executive’s employment for Cause under Section 4(c), the date on which the Company provides the Executive a written termination notice, unless the circumstances giving rise to the termination are subject to the Cause Cure Period, in which case the date on which the Company provides the Executive a written termination notice following the end of the Cause Cure Period; (iv) if the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause under Section 4(d), 30 days after the date on which the Company provides the Executive a written termination notice; (v) if the Executive resigns his employment without Good Reason under Section 4(e), 30 days after the date on which the Executive provides the Company a written termination notice; (vi) if the Executive resigns his employment with Good Reason under Section 4(f), the date on which the Executive provides the Company a written termination notice following the end of the Good Reason Cure Period; and (vii) if this Agreement expires under Section 2, the Expiration Date.
		

		
			5.        Compensation upon Termination.  
		

		
			(a)        Termination by the Company for Cause or by the Executive without Good Reason. If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated pursuant to Sections 4(c) or (e), or as a result of the Executive’s written notice of non-renewal of the Term of Employment pursuant to Section 2, the Company shall pay or provide to the Executive the following amounts through the Termination Date: (i) any and all earned and unpaid portion of his then-effective Base Salary (on or before the first regular payroll date following the Termination Date in accordance with applicable law); (ii) any and all unreimbursed business expenses (in accordance with the Company’s reimbursement policy); (iii) any and all accrued and unused vacation time through the Termination Date (on or before the first regular payroll date following the Termination Date in accordance with applicable law); (iv) any unpaid portion of the Bonus from a prior year, payable when other senior executives receive their annual bonuses for such year, and in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year for which the Bonus was earned; and (v) any other benefits the Executive is entitled to receive as of the Termination Date under the employee benefit plans of the Company, less standard withholdings (collectively the “Accrued Obligations”) on or before the time required by law but in no event more than 30 days after the Executive’s Termination Date.

			(b)        Termination by the Company Without Cause, by the Executive with Good Reason. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause as provided in Section 4(d), as a result of the Company’s written objection to renewal of the Term of Employment pursuant to Section 2, or the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason as provided in Section 4(f), then the Executive shall receive the Accrued Obligations. In addition, the Executive shall be entitled to receive from the Company the following, subject to Section 6:
		

		
			(i)        severance payments of the monthly pro-rata portion of the then-effective Base Salary for eighteen (18) months, paid in equal installments according to the Company’s regular payroll schedule over the eighteen (18) months following the Termination Date;
		

		
			(ii)       a monthly amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the target Bonus, paid according to the Company’s regular payroll schedule over eighteen (18) months following the Termination Date.  For clarity, if the target Bonus is $500,000, the Company will pay according to the Company’s regular payroll schedule $41,667 monthly for eighteen (18) months;
		

		
			(iii)      any equity awards that vest over time  and are unvested as of the Termination Date shall be accelerated such that the portion of the equity awards that would have vested in the eighteen (18) months following the Termination Date will vest as of the Termination Date; and
		

		
			(iv)      an amount equal to the “COBRA” premium for as long as the Executive and, if applicable, the Executive’s dependents are eligible for COBRA, subject to a maximum of eighteen (18) months.
		

		
			(c)        Severance. The payments described in Sections 5(b)(i) and (ii) above shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Severance”.
		

		
			(d)        Termination Upon Death, Disability. If the Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Sections 4 (a) or (b), the Executive (or the Executive’s estate, or other designated beneficiary(s) as shown in the records of the Company in the case of death) shall be entitled to receive from the Company payment for the Accrued Obligations at the times specified in Section 5(a) above.
		

		
			(e)        Severance upon a Change of Control. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated without Cause pursuant to Section 4(d), as a result of the Company’s written objection to renewal of the Term of Employment pursuant to Section 2, or by the Executive for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(f) within two (2) years following a Change of Control by the Company, then Executive shall be entitled to receive the Severance in a lump sum. As used in this Agreement, “Change of Control” means (i) any “Person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) becomes the “Beneficial Owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding voting securities (excluding for this purpose any such voting securities held by the Company or its affiliates or by 

		 

		

			5

		

		

			 

		

any employee benefit plan of the Company) pursuant to a transaction or a series of related transactions which the Board does not approve, or (ii) (A) a merger or consolidation of the Company whether or not approved by the Board, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or the parent of such corporation) more than 50% of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity or parent of such corporation, as the case may be, outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or (B) the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets in a transaction requiring stockholder approval. 
		

		
			(f)        No Duty of Mitigation. The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 5 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 5 be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as the result of employment by another employer or business or by profits earned by the Executive from any other source at any time before and after the Termination Date.
		

		
			(6)        Release; Payment. The Executive’s entitlement to Severance and benefits set forth in Section 5(b) and Section 5(e) is conditioned on (A) the Executive’s executing and delivering to the Company of a mutual release of claims substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A within forty-five (45) days following the Termination Date, and on such release becoming effective, (B) the Executive’s return of all Company property, data and documents to the Company as of the Termination Date, and (C) the Executive’s compliance with the restrictive covenants set forth in Sections 8 and 9; provided, that if such forty-five (45) day period begins in one taxable year and ends in the following taxable year, the Severance shall commence in the second taxable year (and any payments that would have been made in the first taxable year shall be paid in a lump sum at the time payments commence pursuant to Section 5(b) or 5(e), as the case may be).
		

		
			(7)        Section 409A Compliance.  
		

		
			(a)        All in-kind benefits provided and expenses eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement shall be provided by the Company or incurred by the Executive during the time periods set forth in this Agreement. All reimbursements shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event shall any reimbursement be paid after the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of in-kind benefits provided or reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year shall not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided or the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Such right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
		

		
			(b)        To the extent that any of the payments or benefits provided for in Section 5 are deemed to constitute non-qualified deferred compensation benefits subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the following interpretations apply to Section 5: Any termination of the Executive’s employment triggering payment of benefits under Section 5 must constitute a “separation from service” under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h) before distribution of such benefits can commence. To the extent that the termination of the Executive’s employment does not constitute a separation of service under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h) (as the result of further services 

		 

		

			6

		

		

			 

		

that are reasonably anticipated to be provided by the Executive to the Company, or any of its parents, subsidiaries or affiliates, at the time the Executive’s employment terminates), any benefits payable under Section 5 that constitute deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code shall be delayed until after the date of a subsequent event constituting a separation of service under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h). For purposes of clarification, this Section 7(b) shall not cause any forfeiture of benefits on the Executive’s part, but shall only act as a delay until such time as a “separation from service” occurs. Further, if the Executive is a “specified employee” (as that term is used in Section 409A of the Code and regulations and other guidance issued thereunder) on the date his separation from service becomes effective, any benefits payable under Section 5 that constitute non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code shall be delayed until the earlier of (A) the business day following the six-month anniversary of the date his separation from service becomes effective, and (B) the date of the Executive’s death, but only to the extent necessary to avoid such penalties under Section 409A of the Code. On the earlier of (A) the business day following the six-month anniversary of the date his separation from service becomes effective, and (B) the Executive’s death, the Company shall pay the Executive in a lump sum the aggregate value of the non-qualified deferred compensation that the Company otherwise would have paid the Executive prior to that date under Section 5(b) of this Agreement. It is intended that each installment of the payments and benefits provided under Section 5(b) of this Agreement shall be treated as a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Neither the Company nor the Executive shall have the right to accelerate or defer the delivery of any such payments or benefits except to the extent specifically permitted or required by Section 409A of the Code.
		

		
			8.        Confidential Information, Noncompetition and Cooperation.  
		

		
			(a)        Confidential Information. As used in this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means information belonging to the Company, its parents, subsidiaries or controlled affiliates (each, an “Interested Party”), which is of value to the Interested Party in the course of conducting its business, the disclosure of which could result in a competitive or other disadvantage to the Interested Party. Confidential Information includes, without limitation, financial information, reports, and forecasts; inventions, improvements and other intellectual property; trade secrets; know-how; drawings, specifications, algorithms, designs, processes or formulae; software; firmware; market or sales information or plans; supplier lists (including their contact information, costs and pricing); customer lists (including past, current and potential customers, their contact information, preferences and purchase history); costs and pricing information and strategies; and business plans, prospects and opportunities (such as possible acquisitions or dispositions of businesses or facilities) which have been discussed or considered by an Interested Party. Confidential Information includes information developed by the Executive in the course of the Executive’s employment with the Company, as well as other information to which the Executive may have access in connection with his employment. Confidential Information also includes the confidential information of others disclosed to Executive and with which an Interested Party has a business relationship. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include information in the public domain, unless due to breach of the Executive’s duties under Section 8(b).
		

		
			(b)        Confidentiality. At all times, both during the Executive’s employment with the Company and after its termination, the Executive will keep in confidence and trust all such Confidential Information, and will not use or disclose for his own benefit or the benefit of any other 

		 

		

			7

		

		

			 

		

Person any such Confidential Information without the written consent of the Company, except as the disclosure of such Confidential Information is required by law, in which case the Executive shall give notice to and the opportunity to the Company to comment on the form of the disclosure and only the portion of Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed by law shall be disclosed.
		

		
			(c)        Documents, Records, etc. All documents, records, data, apparatus, equipment and other physical property, whether or not pertaining to Confidential Information, which are furnished to the Executive by an Interested Party or are produced by the Executive in connection with the Executive’s employment with the Company will be and remain the sole property of the respective Interested Party. The Executive will return to the Interested Party all such materials and property as and when requested by the Interested Party. In any event, the Executive will return all such materials and property immediately upon termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason. The Executive will not retain any such material or property or any copies thereof after the termination of his employment.
		

		
			(d)        No Competition. From the Effective Date through the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Termination Date, regardless of the reason for the termination (the “Restricted Period”), the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, whether as owner, partner, shareholder, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer, member, manager, franchisor, franchisee, independent contractor or otherwise, engage in, prepare to engage in, assist in, invest in, own, operate, lease, manage, license, franchise, promote, consult with, participate with, or enter into any agreement regarding any Competing Business in any Geographic Area (as defined below) in which the Company, or an Interested Party incorporating the know-how of the Company Business, distributes its products or provides its services or plans to distribute its products or provide its services.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive may own up to 5% of the outstanding stock of a publicly held corporation which constitutes or is affiliated with a Competing Business.
		

		
			(e)        No Solicitation. During the Restricted Period, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, take any of the following actions, and, to the extent the Executive owns, manages, operates, controls, is employed by or participates in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or is connected in any manner with, any business, the Executive shall use his best efforts to ensure that such business does not take any of the following actions:
		

		
			(i)        persuade or attempt to persuade any Customer, Prospective Customer or Supplier to cease doing business with an Interested Party, or to reduce the amount of business it does with an Interested Party;
		

		
			(ii)       persuade or attempt to persuade any Service Provider to cease providing services to an Interested Party; or
		

		
			(iii)      solicit for hire or hire for himself or for any third party any Service Provider unless such person’s employment was terminated by the Company or any of its affiliates or such person responded to a “blind advertisement”.
		

		
			

		 

		

			8

		

		

			 

		

		

		
			(f)        The following definitions are applicable to this Section 8.
		

		
			(i)        “Company Business” means: (A) any steak concept restaurant, other than the Rivershore Bar and Grille in Oregon City, Oregon, with an average check in excess of $75; (B) any other restaurant or food or beverage operation that has a theme, menu or cuisine substantially similar to any current or planned (at the time of termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, based on substantive and repeated executive-level discussions) restaurant or food or beverage operation operated by the Company; or (C) food and beverage operations in a hotel.  For the sake of clarity, a steak concept restaurant with an average check less than $75 is not, and shall not be deemed to be, Company Business, unless such steak concept restaurant is otherwise included within the meaning of Section 8(f)(i)(B).
		

		
			(ii)       “Competing Business” means any Person that engages in the Company Business.
		

		
			(iii)      “Customer” means any Person that purchased goods or services from an Interested Party at any time within twelve (12) months prior to the date of the solicitation prohibited by Section 8(e)(i).
		

		
			(iv)      “Geographic Area” shall mean a twenty (20) mile radius of: (A) any existing Company owned or operated restaurant or hospitality venue; or (B) any prospective location in which the Company is considering engaging in Company Business. For the sake of clarity, such prospective locations shall consist of any location considered in substantive and repeated executive-level discussions.
		

		
			(v)       “Person” means an individual, a sole proprietorship, a corporation, a limited liability company, a partnership, an association, a trust, or other business entity, whether or not incorporated.
		

		
			(vi)      “Prospective Customer” means any Person with whom an Interested Party met or to whom an Interested Party presented for the purpose of soliciting the Person to become a Customer of an Interested Party within six (6) months prior to the date of the solicitation prohibited by Section 8(e)(i).
		

		
			(vii)     “Service Provider” means any Person who is an employee or independent contractor of an Interested Party or who was within six (6) months preceding the solicitation prohibited by Section 8(e)(ii) or (iii) an employee or independent contractor of an Interested Party.
		

		
			(viii)    “Supplier” means any Person that sold goods or services to an Interested Party at any time within twelve (12) months prior to the date of the solicitation prohibited by Section 8(e)(i).
		

		
			

		 

		

			9

		

		

			 

		

		

		
			(g)        Reasonableness of Restrictions. The Executive recognizes and acknowledges that: (i) the types of employment which are prohibited by this Section 8 are narrow and reasonable in relation to the skills which represent the Executive’s principal salable asset both to Company and to other prospective employers; and (ii) the specific but broad temporal and geographical scope of this Section 8 is reasonable, legitimate, and fair to the Executive in light of the Company’s need to market its services and sell its services in a large geographic area in order to maintain a sufficient customer base and the limited restrictions on the type of employment prohibited herein compared to the types of employment for which the Executive is qualified to earn his livelihood.
		

		
			(h)        Effect of Breach. In the event that the Executive breaches any of the terms described in Section 8(d) and (e) above, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Restricted Period shall be tolled and shall not run during the time that the Executive is in breach of such obligations; provided that, the Restricted Period shall begin to run again once the Executive has ceased breaching the terms of Section 8(d) and/or (e) (as applicable) and is otherwise in compliance with his obligations described therein.
		

		
			9.        Intellectual Property.  
		

		
			(a)        All creations, inventions, ideas, designs, copyrightable materials, trademarks, and other technology and rights (and any related improvements or modifications), whether or not subject to patent or copyright protection (collectively, “Creations”), relating to any activities of the Company which are conceived by the Executive or developed by the Executive in the course of his employment with the Company, whether conceived alone or with others and whether or not conceived or developed during regular business hours, and if based on Confidential Information, after the termination of the Executive’s employment, shall be the sole property of the Company and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, shall be deemed “works made for hire” as that term is used in the United States Copyright Act.
		

		
			(b)        To the extent, if any, that the Executive retains any right, title or interest with respect to any Creations delivered to the Company or related to his employment with the Company, the Executive hereby grants to the Company an irrevocable, paid-up, transferable, sub-licensable, worldwide right and license: (i) to modify all or any portion of such Creations, including, without limitation, the making of additions to or deletions from such Creations, regardless of the medium (now or hereafter known) into which such Creations may be modified and regardless of the effect of such modifications on the integrity of such Creations; and (ii) to identify the Executive, or not to identify him, as one or more authors of or contributors to such Creations or any portion thereof, whether or not such Creations or any portion thereof have been modified. The Executive further waives any “moral” rights, or other rights with respect to attribution of authorship or integrity of such Creations that he may have under any applicable law, whether under copyright, trademark, unfair competition, defamation, right of privacy, contract, tort or other legal theory.
		

		
			(c)        The Executive will promptly inform the Company of any Creations. The Executive will also allow the Company to inspect any Creations he conceives or develops within one year after the termination of his employment for any reason to determine if they are based on Confidential Information. The Executive shall (whether during his employment or after the termination of his employment) execute such written instruments and do other such acts as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company or its counsel to secure the Company’s rights in the 

		 

		

			10

		

		

			 

		

Creations, including obtaining a patent, registering a copyright, or otherwise (and the Executive hereby irrevocably appoints the Company and any of its officers as his attorney in fact to undertake such acts in my name). The Executive’s obligation to execute written instruments and otherwise assist the Company in securing its rights in the Creations will continue after the termination of his employment for any reason. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for any out-of-pocket expenses he incurs in connection with his compliance with this Section 9(c).
		

		
			10.        Specific Acknowledgements Regarding Sections 8 and 9.  
		

		
			(a)        Survival. The Executive’s acknowledgments and agreements set forth in Sections 8 and 9 shall survive the termination of the Executive’s employment with Company for any reason.
		

		
			(b)        Severability. The parties intend Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement to be enforced as written. However, if any portion or provision of such sections shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a duly authorized court having jurisdiction, then the remainder of such sections, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each remaining portion and provision of such sections shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
		

		
			(c)        Modification And Blue Pencil. The parties agree and intend that the covenants contained in Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a series of separate covenants and agreements, and if any provision of such sections shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision, without any action on the part of the parties hereto, shall be deemed amended to delete (i.e., “blue pencil”) or modify the portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, to the extent necessary to cause the provision as amended to be valid and enforceable.
		

		
			(d)        Irreparable Harm. The Executive expressly acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of any of the terms and/or conditions of Sections 8 or 9 of this Agreement will result in substantial, continuing and irreparable injury to the Company. Therefore, the Executive hereby agrees that, in addition to any other remedy that may be available to the Company, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief by a court of appropriate jurisdiction in the event of any breach or threatened breach of the terms of Section 8 or 9, without having to post bond.
		

		
			(e)        Covenants Enforceable Upon Material Job Change. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that if he should transfer between or among any affiliates or subsidiaries of the Company, wherever situated, or be promoted, demoted, reassigned to functions other than his present functions, or have his job duties changed, altered or modified in any way, all terms of Section 8 and Section 9 of this Agreement shall continue to apply with full force and effect. For sake of clarity, nothing contained in this Section 10(e) shall vitiate or impact Executive’s right of termination for Good Reason.
		

		
			(f)        Impact of Breach on Severance. The Executive hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that if he breaches any of the terms and/or conditions set forth in Section 8 and/or Section 9 of this Agreement following a termination of his employment either by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason, then, in addition to the injunctive relief described in Section 

		 

		

			11

		

		

			 

		

10(d) above, (i) the Company shall cease providing the Executive with any further Severance as of the date of such breach, (ii) the Company shall not be obligated to provide the Executive with, and the Executive shall not be eligible or otherwise entitled to receive, any further Severance, and (iii) the Company’s obligation to provide the Executive with the Severance shall be null and void, and of no further force or effect.
		

		
			11.        Disputes; Governing Law.  
		

		
			(a)        Except as set forth in 11(b), any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, a breach of this Agreement or otherwise arising out of the Executive’s employment or the termination of his employment (including, without limitation, any claims of unlawful employment discrimination whether based on age or otherwise) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be settled exclusively by arbitration before a single arbitrator appointed by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in Denver, Colorado (applying Colorado law) under the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the AAA, as may be amended from time to time. Pursuant to applicable law, the Company and Executive will share the AAA administrative fees, the arbitrator’s fee and expenses. All Claims and defenses which could be raised before a court must be raised in arbitration and the arbitrator shall apply the law accordingly. The arbitrator shall issue a written decision setting forth the essential findings and conclusions in sufficient detail to permit judicial review to the extent permitted by law. The decision or award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties. Any arbitral award may be entered as a judgment or order in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any relief or recovery based on any claims arising out of your employment, cessation of employment, including but not limited to, any claim of unlawful harassment or discrimination, shall be limited to that awarded by the arbitrator.
		

		
			(b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive agrees that it would be difficult to measure any damages caused to the Company which might result from any breach by the Executive of the promises set forth in Sections 8 or 9 of this Agreement, and that in any event, money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any such breach. Accordingly, if the Executive breaches, or proposes to breach, Section 8 or 9 of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other remedies that it may have, to a temporary and preliminary injunction or other appropriate equitable relief to restrain any such breach without showing or proving any actual damage to the Company from any court having competent jurisdiction over the Executive, provided that any other relief shall be pursued through an arbitration proceeding pursuant to Section 11(a).
		

		
			(c)        To the extent that any court action is permitted consistent with or to enforce this Section 11, the parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Colorado. Accordingly, with respect to any such court action, the Executive: (i) submits to the personal jurisdiction of these courts; (ii) consents to service of process under the notice provisions set forth in Section 17; (iii) waives any other requirement (whether imposed by statute, rule of court, or otherwise) with respect to personal jurisdiction or service of process; and (iv) waives any objection to jurisdiction based on improper venue or improper jurisdiction.
		

		
			(d)        BOTH THE COMPANY AND THE EXECUTIVE HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE FEDERAL OR STATE LAW.
		

		
			

		 

		

			12

		

		

			 

		

		

		
			(e)        The prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in connection with any action filed under Section 11(a), (b) or both.
		

		
			(f)        This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles of New York or any other state.
		

		
			12.        Integration. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements between the parties concerning its subject matter including any conflicts of subject matter with other Company policies.
		

		
			13.        Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and any successors and assigns of the Company, including any corporation with which, or into which, the Company may be merged or which may succeed to the Company’s assets or business. In the event that the Company sells or transfers all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or in the event of any merger or consolidation of the Company, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to cause such assignee, transferee, or successor to assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any reason an assignee, transferee, or successor does not assume the full extent of the Company’s liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company hereunder, such event or non-occurrence shall trigger a termination without Cause under this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned by the Executive; provided, however, that this provision shall not preclude the Executive from designating one or more beneficiaries to receive any amount that may be payable after his death and shall not preclude his executor or administrator from assigning any right hereunder to the person or persons entitled hereto.
		

		
			14.        Enforceability. If any portion or provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any portion or provision of any section of this Agreement) shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Moreover, if any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is held to be excessively broad as to duration, scope or activity, that provision shall be construed by limiting and reducing it so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable New York law.
		

		
			15.        Survival. The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement and/or the termination of the Executive’s employment to the extent necessary to effectuate the terms contained in this Agreement, including without limitation, the terms of Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11.
		

		
			16.        Waiver. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of any party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.
		

		
			

		 

		

			13

		

		

			 

		

		

		
			17.        Notices. Any notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for by this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and delivered in person or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Executive at the last address the Executive has filed in writing with the Company, or, in the case of the Company, to 1624 Market St. Suite 311, Denver, CO 08202 Attention: Corporate Secretary, Fax No. (212) 255-9715, with a copy to Todd A. Hanchett, Esq., Stoel Rives LLP, 760 SW 9th Avenue, Suite 3000, Portland, OR 97205, Fax No. (503) 220-2480.
		

		
			18.        Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument signed by the Executive and by a duly authorized representative of the Company.
		

		
			19.        Nondisparagement. The Executive agrees to refrain from (i) making, directly or indirectly, any derogatory comments concerning the Company or its Subsidiaries or any current or former officers, directors, employees or shareholders thereof or (ii) taking any other action with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries which is reasonably expected to result, or does result in, damage to the business or reputation of the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of its current or former officers, directors, employees or shareholders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict Executive from, truthfully and in good faith: (i) making any disclosure of information required by law; (ii) providing information to, or testifying or otherwise assisting in any investigation or proceeding brought by, any federal, state or local regulatory or law enforcement agency or legislative body, any self-regulatory organization, or the Executive’s designated legal, compliance or human resources officers; or (iii) filing, testifying, participating in or otherwise assisting in a proceeding relating to an alleged violation of any federal, state or municipal law relating to fraud, or any rule or regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any self-regulatory organization.
		

		
			20.        Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be taken to be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same document.

AMENDED
& RESTATED RIGHTS AGREEMENT

 

This
AMENDED & RESTATED RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Rights Agreement”) is dated as of August 29, 2018 and
amended and restated as of September 3, 2019, by and between TSR, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”),
and CONTINENTAL STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY (the “Rights Agent”).

 

W
I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS,
on August 29, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Corporation authorized the issuance of, and declared a dividend payable
in, one right (a “Right”) for each share of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Corporation
outstanding as of the close of business on August 29, 2018 (the “Record Date”), each such Right representing
the right to purchase one one-hundredth of a share of Class A Preferred Stock, Series One of the Corporation (the “Preferred
Stock”) having the rights and preferences set forth in the Certificate of Designations attached hereto as Exhibit
C, authorized by the Board of Directors on August 29, 2018, upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth;

 

WHEREAS,
the Board of Directors of the Corporation further authorized the issuance of one Right (subject to adjustment) with respect
to each share of Common Stock which may be issued between the Record Date and the earlier to occur of the Distribution Date or
the Expiration Date (as such terms are hereinafter defined); and

 

WHEREAS,
on August 30, 2019, the Corporation entered into a Settlement and Release Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”)
with Zeff Capital, L.P. (“Zeff Capital”), Zeff Holding Company, LLC (“Zeff Holding”)
and Daniel Zeff (together with Zeff Capital and Zeff Holding, the “Zeff Parties”), QAR Industries, Inc.
(“QAR”) and Robert Fitzgerald (together with QAR, the “QAR Parties”), and
Fintech Consulting, LLC (“Fintech”) and Tajuddin Haslani (together with Fintech, the “Fintech
Parties” and the Fintech Parties together with the Zeff Parties and the QAR Parties, the “Investor Parties”)
pursuant to which the Corporation agreed to amend and restate this Rights Agreement to confirm that a Distribution Date shall
not occur as a result of any request by any of the Investor Parties calling for a special meeting pursuant to Article II, Section
5 of the Amended and Restated By-Laws of the Corporation (as amended, including by Amendment No. 2 to the Amended and Restated
By-Laws, the “By-Laws”) in accordance with the Settlement Agreement;

 

    1

     

    

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

Section
1.Certain Definitions.

 

For
purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:

 

(a)
“Acquiring Person” shall mean any Person who or which, together with all Affiliates and Associates of
such Person and any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert, shall be the Beneficial Owner of 5% or more of the
Corporation’s Common Stock then outstanding, but shall not include (i) an Exempt Person or (ii) any Person who
or which, at the time of the first public announcement of this Rights Agreement, is a Beneficial Owner of 5% or more of the Corporation’s
Common Stock then outstanding (a “Grandfathered Stockholder”); provided, however, that
if a Grandfathered Stockholder becomes, after such time, the Beneficial Owner of any additional shares of the Corporation’s
Common Stock (regardless of whether, thereafter or as a result thereof, there is an increase, decrease or no change in the percentage
of shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock then outstanding beneficially owned by such Grandfathered Stockholder) then
such Grandfathered Stockholder shall be deemed to be an Acquiring Person unless, upon such acquisition of Beneficial Ownership
of additional shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock, such Person is not the Beneficial Owner of 5% or more of the Corporation’s
Common Stock then outstanding; provided, further, that upon the first decrease of a Grandfathered Stockholder’s
Beneficial Ownership below 5%, such Grandfathered Stockholder shall cease to be a Grandfathered Stockholder and this clause (ii) shall
have no further force or effect with respect to such Person. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that after the time of the
first public announcement of this Rights Agreement, any agreement, arrangement or understanding pursuant to which any Grandfathered
Stockholder is deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock expires, terminates or no longer
confers any benefit to or imposes any obligation on the Grandfathered Stockholder, any direct or indirect replacement, extension
or substitution of such agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to the same or different shares of the Corporation’s
Common Stock that confers Beneficial Ownership of shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock shall be considered the acquisition
of Beneficial Ownership of additional shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock by the Grandfathered Stockholder and render
such Grandfathered Stockholder an Acquiring Person for purposes of this Rights Agreement unless, upon such acquisition of Beneficial
Ownership of additional shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock, such Person is not the Beneficial Owner of 5% or more
of the Corporation’s Common Stock then outstanding.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no Person shall become an Acquiring Person as the result of an acquisition of shares of the Corporation’s
Common Stock which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the proportionate number of shares beneficially owned
by such Person to 5% (or such other percentage as would otherwise result in such Person becoming an Acquiring Person) or more
of the Corporation’s Common Stock then outstanding; provided, however, that if a Person would, but for the
provisions of this paragraph, become an Acquiring Person by reason of an acquisition of shares of the Corporation’s Common
Stock by the Corporation and shall, after such share purchases by the Corporation, become the Beneficial Owner of any additional
shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock at any time such that the Person is or thereby becomes the Beneficial Owner of
5% (or such other percentage as would otherwise result in such Person becoming an Acquiring Person) or more of the Corporation’s
Common Stock then outstanding (other than shares of Common Stock acquired solely as a result of corporate action of the Corporation
not caused, directly or indirectly, by such Person), then such Person shall be deemed to be an Acquiring Person.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 1(a), if the Board of Directors determines in good faith that a Person who
would otherwise be an Acquiring Person has become such inadvertently, and such Person divests as promptly as practicable a sufficient
number of shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock so that such Person would no longer be an Acquiring Person, then such
Person shall not be deemed to have become an Acquiring Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a bona fide swaps dealer who
would otherwise be an “Acquiring Person” has become so as a result of its actions in the ordinary course of its business
that the Board of Directors determines, in its sole discretion, were taken without the intent or effect of evading or assisting
any other Person to evade the purposes and intent of this Rights Agreement, or otherwise seeking to control or influence the management
or policies of the Corporation, then, and unless and until the Board of Directors shall otherwise determine, such Person shall
not be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person.”

 

    2

     

    

 

(b)
A Person shall be deemed to be “Acting in Concert” with another Person if such Person knowingly acts
(whether or not pursuant to an express agreement, arrangement or understanding) in concert or in parallel with such other Person,
or towards a common goal with such other Person, relating to (i) acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of voting securities
of the Corporation or (ii) changing or influencing the control of the Corporation or in connection with or as a participant
in any transaction having that purpose or effect, where (A) each Person is conscious of the other Person’s conduct
or intent and this awareness is an element in their decision-making processes and (B) at least one additional factor supports
a determination by the Board of Directors that such Persons intended to act in concert or in parallel, which such additional factors
may include, without limitation, exchanging information, attending meetings, conducting discussions, or making or soliciting invitations
to act in concert or in parallel. A Person who is Acting in Concert with another Person shall also be deemed to be Acting in Concert
with any third Person who is also Acting in Concert with such other Person.

 

(c)
“Affiliate” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in Rule 12b-2 of the General Rules and Regulations
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as in effect on the date of this Rights
Agreement.

 

(d)
“Associate” of a Person (as such term is hereinafter defined) shall mean (i) with respect to a corporation,
any officer or director thereof or of any Subsidiary (as such term is hereinafter defined) thereof, or any Beneficial Owner (as
such term is hereinafter defined) of 10% or more of any class of equity security thereof, (ii) with respect to an association,
joint venture or other unincorporated organization, any officer or director thereof or of a Subsidiary thereof or any Beneficial
Owner of 10% or more ownership interest therein, (iii) with respect to a partnership, any general partner thereof or any limited
partner thereof who is, directly or indirectly, the Beneficial Owner of a 10% or greater ownership interest therein, (iv) with
respect to a limited liability company, any officer, director or manager thereof or of a Subsidiary thereof or any member thereof
who is, directly or indirectly, the Beneficial Owner of a 10% or greater ownership interest therein, (v) with respect to a business
trust, any officer or trustee thereof or of any Subsidiary thereof, (vi) with respect to any other trust or an estate, any trustee,
executor or similar fiduciary or any Person who has a 10% or greater interest as a beneficiary in the income from or principal
of such trust or estate, (vii) with respect to a natural person, any relative or spouse of such person, or any relative of such
spouse, who has the same home as such person, and (viii) any Affiliate of such Person.

 

    3

     

    

 

(e)
A Person shall be deemed the “Beneficial Owner” of, or to “Beneficially Own,”
any securities (and correlative terms shall have correlative meanings):

 

(i)
which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, within the
meaning of Rules 13d-3 or 13d-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as in effect on the date of this Agreement;

 

(ii)
which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates has (A) the right or ability to vote, cause to be
voted or control or direct the voting of pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing; provided,
however, that a Person shall not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, any security if the agreement,
arrangement or understanding to vote such security (x) arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given to such Person
in response to a public proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable rules and regulations
promulgated under the Exchange Act and (y) is not also then reportable on a statement on Schedule 13D under the Exchange
Act (or any comparable or successor report) or (B) the right or the obligation to become the Beneficial Owner (whether such
right is exercisable or such obligation is required to be performed immediately or only after the passage of time, the occurrence
of conditions or the satisfaction of regulatory requirements) pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether
or not in writing (other than customary agreements with and between underwriters and selling group members with respect to a bona
fide public offering of securities), written or otherwise, or upon the exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, rights
(other than the Rights), warrants or options, or otherwise, through conversion of a security, pursuant to the power to revoke
a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement, pursuant to the power to terminate a repurchase or similar so-called “stock-borrowing”
agreement or arrangement, or pursuant to the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement; provided,
however, that a Person shall not be deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, securities tendered pursuant
to a tender or exchange offer made pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable rules and regulations promulgated under
the Exchange Act until such tendered securities are accepted for purchase or exchange; or

 

(iii)
which are beneficially owned (within the meaning of the preceding subsections of this Section 1(e), directly or indirectly,
by any other Person with which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates (A) has any agreement,
arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing, for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of any securities
of the Corporation or cooperating in obtaining, changing or influencing the control of the Corporation or (B) is Acting in
Concert; or

 

(iv)
which are the subject of, or the reference securities for, or that underlie, any Derivative Position of such Person or any of
such Person’s Affiliates or Associates or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert, with the number of
shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned in respect of a Derivative Position being the notional or other number of shares
of Common Stock in respect of such Derivative Position (without regard to any short or similar position) that is specified in
(A) one or more filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission by such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates
or Associates or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert or (B) the documentation evidencing such Derivative
Position as the basis upon which the value or settlement amount of such Derivative Position, or the opportunity of the holder
of such Derivative Position to profit or share in any profit, is to be calculated in whole or in part (whichever of (A) or
(B) is greater), or if no such number of shares of Common Stock is specified in such filings or documentation (or such documentation
is not available to the Board of Directors ), as determined by the Board of Directors in its reasonable discretion.

 

    4

     

    

 

Notwithstanding
anything in this paragraph (e) to the contrary, a Person engaged in the business of underwriting securities shall not be deemed
the “Beneficial Owner” of, or to “Beneficially Own,” any securities acquired in good faith in a firm commitment

Section

(a)
On the Record Date (or as soon as practicable thereafter), the Corporation or the Rights Agent shall send a copy of a Summary
of Rights, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Summary of Rights”),

Until the Close of Business on the day which is the earlier of (i) the tenth day after the Stock Acquisition Date or such earlier
or later date (not beyond the thirtieth day after the Stock Acquisition Date) as the Board of Directors may from time to time
fix by resolution adopted prior to the Distribution Date that otherwise would have occurred or (ii) the tenth business day (or
such later date as may be determined by action of the Board of Directors prior to such time as any Person becomes an Acquiring
Person) after the date of the commencement by any Person (other than an Exempt Person) of, or the first public announcement of

prior to the occurrence of a Distribution Date, then no Distribution Date shall occur as a result of such tender or exchange offer,
(x) the Rights shall be evidenced by the Book-Entries, or certificates for, Common Stock registered in the name of the holders
of Common Stock (together with, in the case of Book-Entries representing, or the certificates for, Common Stock outstanding as

constitute the surrender for transfer of the Right or Rights associated with the Common Stock evidenced thereby, whether or not
accompanied by a copy of the Summary of Rights.

(c)
Rights shall be issued in respect of all shares of Common Stock that become outstanding after the Record Date but prior to the
earlier of the Distribution Date or the Expiration Date and, in certain circumstances provided in Section 22 hereof, may
be issued in respect of shares of Common Stock that become outstanding after the Distribution Date. Certificates for Common Stock
(including, without limitation, certificates issued upon original issuance, dispensation from the Corporation’s treasury
or transfer or exchange of Common Stock) after the Record Date but prior to the earliest of the Distribution Date or the Expiration
Date (or, in certain circumstances as provided in Section 22 hereof, after the Distribution Date) shall have impressed,
printed, written or stamped thereon or otherwise affixed thereto the following legend:

 

This
certificate also evidences and entitles the holder hereof to the same number of Rights (subject to adjustment) as the number of
shares of Common Stock represented by this certificate, such Rights being on the terms provided under the Rights Agreement between
TSR, Inc. (the “Corporation”) and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Rights Agent”),
dated as of August 29, 2018, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Rights Agreement”), the terms of which are
incorporated herein by reference and a copy of which is on file at the principal executive offices of the Corporation. Under certain
circumstances, as set forth in the Rights Agreement, such Rights shall be evidenced by separate certificates and shall no longer
be evidenced by this certificate. The Corporation shall mail to the registered holder of this certificate a copy of the Rights
Agreement without charge within five days after receipt of a written request therefor. UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES AS PROVIDED
IN SECTION 11(a)(ii) OF THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT, RIGHTS ISSUED TO OR BENEFICIALLY OWNED BY ACQUIRING PERSONS OR THEIR AFFILIATES
OR ASSOCIATES OR PERSONS WITH WHOM SUCH PERSONS ARE ACTING IN CONCERT (AS SUCH TERMS ARE DEFINED IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT) OR ANY
SUBSEQUENT HOLDER OF SUCH RIGHTS SHALL BE NULL AND VOID AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO ANY PERSON.

 

(d)
As soon as practicable after the Distribution Date, the Corporation will prepare and execute, the Rights Agent will countersign,
and the Corporation will send or cause to be sent (and the Rights Agent will, if requested, send), by first class mail, postage
prepaid, to each record holder of the Common Stock as of the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, as shown by the records
of the Corporation, at the address of such holder shown on such records, a certificate in the form provided by Section 4
hereof (a “Rights Certificate”), evidencing one Right (subject to adjustment as provided herein) for
each share of Common Stock so held; provided, however, that the Rights may instead be recorded in Book-Entry or
other uncertificated form, in which case such Book-Entries or other evidence of ownership shall be deemed to be Rights Certificates
for all purposes of this Rights Agreement ; provided, further, that all procedures relating to actions to be taken
or information to be provided with respect to such Rights recorded in Book-Entry or other uncertificated forms, and all requirements
with respect to the form of any Rights Certificate set forth in this Rights Agreement, may be modified as necessary or appropriate
to reflect Book-Entry or other uncertificated ownership. As of and after the Distribution Date, the Rights shall be evidenced
solely by such Rights Certificates and may be transferred by the transfer of the Rights Certificate as permitted hereby, separately
and apart from any transfer of one or more shares of Common Stock.

 

    8

     

    

 

(e)
In addition, in connection with the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock following the Distribution Date and prior to the

of stock options or under any employee plan or arrangement or (y) upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of other securities
issued by the Corporation prior to the Distribution Date and (ii) may, in any other case, if deemed necessary or appropriate by
the Board of Directors of the Corporation, issue Rights certificates representing the appropriate number of Rights in connection
with such issuance or sale; provided that no such Rights Certificate shall be issued if, and to the extent that, (i) the
Corporation shall be advised by counsel that such issuance would create a significant risk of material adverse tax consequences
to the Corporation or the Person to whom such Rights Certificate would be issued or (ii) appropriate adjustment shall otherwise
have been made in lieu of the issuance thereof.

 

Section
4.Form of Rights Certificates.

 

(a)
The Rights Certificates (and the forms of election to purchase shares and of assignment to be printed on the reverse thereof),
when, as and if issued, shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit B hereto and may have such marks of identification
or designation and such legends, summaries or endorsements printed thereon as may be required to comply with any law or with any
rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock or the
Rights may from time to time be listed or as the Corporation may deem appropriate to conform to usage or otherwise and as are
not inconsistent with the provisions of this Rights Agreement (but which do not affect the rights, duties, liabilities or responsibilities
of the Rights Agent). Subject to the provisions of Section 22 hereof, Rights Certificates evidencing Rights whenever issued,
(i) shall be dated as of the date of issuance of the Rights they represent and (ii) subject to adjustment from time to time as
provided herein, on their face shall entitle the holders thereof to purchase such number of shares (including fractional shares
which are integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a share) of Preferred Stock as shall be set forth therein at the price payable
upon exercise of a Right provided by Section 7(b) hereof as the same may from time to time be adjusted as provided herein
(the “Exercise Price”).

 

(b)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Rights Agreement, any Rights Certificate that represents Rights Beneficially Owned
by an Acquiring Person or any Affiliate or Associate thereof or any other Person whose Rights shall become void pursuant to Section
11(a)(ii) shall have impressed on, printed on, written on or otherwise affixed to it (if the Corporation or the Rights Agent
has knowledge that such Person is an Acquiring Person or an Associate or Affiliate or a nominee of any of the foregoing) the following
legend:

 

The
Beneficial Owner of the Rights represented by this Rights Certificate is an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or an Associate of
an Acquiring Person. Accordingly, this Rights Certificate and the Rights represented hereby shall become void in the circumstances
specified in Section 11(a)(ii) of the Rights Agreement.

 

    9

     

    

 

Section
5.Countersignature and Registration.

 

(a)
Each Rights Certificate shall be executed on behalf of the Corporation by its Chairman of the Board, Chef Executive Officer, President
or any Vice President, either manually or by facsimile signature, and have affixed thereto the Corporation’s seal or a facsimile
thereof which shall be attested to by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation, either manually or by facsimile
signature. Each Rights Certificate shall be countersigned by the Rights Agent either manually or by facsimile signature and shall
not be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned. In case any officer of the Corporation who shall have signed any Rights
Certificate shall cease to be such officer of the Corporation before countersignature by the Rights Agent and issuance and delivery
of the certificate by the Corporation, such Rights Certificate, nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Rights Agent and issued
and delivered with the same force and effect as though the person who signed such Rights Certificate had not ceased to be such
officer of the Corporation. Any Rights Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Corporation by any person who, on the date of
the execution of such Rights Certificate, shall be a proper officer of the Corporation to sign such Rights Certificate, although
at the date of the execution of this Rights Agreement any such person was not such an officer.

 

(b)
Following the Distribution Date, the Rights Agent will keep or cause to be kept, at its principal office or one or more offices
designated as the appropriate place for the surrender of Rights Certificates upon exercise or transfer, and in such other locations
as may be required by law, books for registration and transfer of the Rights Certificates issued hereunder. Such books shall show
the names and addresses of the respective holders of the Rights Certificates, the number of Rights evidenced on its face by each
of the Rights Certificates and the date of each of the Rights Certificates and any Rights Certificates that have a legend printed
thereon pursuant to Section 4(b).

 

Section
6.Transfer, Split Up, Combination and Exchange of Rights Certificates; Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Rights Certificates.

 

(a)
Subject to the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii), Section 7(e) and Section 14(b) hereof, at any time after
the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, and at or prior to the Close of Business on the Expiration Date, any Rights Certificate
(other than a Rights Certificate representing Rights that have become void pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) or that have been
exchanged pursuant to Section 27) may be (i) transferred or (ii) split up, combined or exchanged for one or more other
Rights Certificates, entitling the registered holder to purchase a like number of shares of Preferred Stock as the Rights Certificate
or Rights Certificates surrendered then entitled such holder to purchase. Any registered holder desiring to transfer any Rights
Certificate shall surrender the Rights Certificate at the office of the Rights Agent designated for the surrender of Rights Certificates
with the form of certificate and assignment on the reverse side thereof duly endorsed (or, enclosed with such Rights Certificate,
a written instrument of transfer in a form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Rights Agent), duly executed by the registered
holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and with such signature duly guaranteed. Any registered holder desiring
to split up, combine or exchange any Rights Certificate shall make such request in writing delivered to the Rights Agent, and
shall surrender the Rights Certificate to be split up, combined or exchanged at the office of the Rights Agent. Thereupon, the
Rights Agent shall countersign and deliver to the person entitled thereto a Rights Certificate or Rights Certificates, as the
case may be, as so requested. The Corporation or the Rights Agent may require payment from the holders of the Rights Certificates
of a sum sufficient to cover any Transfer Tax that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, split up, combination or exchange
of any Rights Certificates. The Rights Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to take any action under any section of this
Rights Agreement that requires payment of taxes and/or charges unless and until it is satisfied that all such payments have been
made.

 

    10

     

    

 

(b)
Subject to the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii), Section 7(e) and Section 14(b) hereof, upon receipt by the
Corporation and the Rights Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
a Rights Certificate and the identity of the Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) thereof including a signature guarantee
and such other documentation as the Rights Agent may reasonably request), and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity
or security reasonably satisfactory to them and, if requested by the Corporation, reimbursement to the Corporation and the Rights
Agent of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, or upon surrender to the Rights Agent and cancellation of the Rights Certificate
if mutilated, the Corporation shall issue and deliver a new Rights Certificate of like tenor to the Rights Agent for delivery
to the registered owner in lieu of the Rights Certificate so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated.

 

Section
7.Exercise of Rights; Exercise Price; Expiration Date of Rights.

 

(a)
The Rights shall not be exercisable until, and shall become exercisable on, the Distribution Date (unless otherwise provided herein,
including, without limitation, the restrictions on exercisability set forth in Section 11(a)(ii) and Section 23(a)
hereof). Except as otherwise provided herein, the Rights may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time commencing with the

to the exercise of a Right. The Exercise Price and the number of shares of Preferred Stock or other securities to be acquired
upon exercise of a Right shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 11 and Section 13
hereof. The Exercise Price shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America, in accordance with paragraph (c)
below.

 

    11

     

    

 

(c)
Except as otherwise provided herein, upon receipt of a Rights Certificate representing exercisable Rights with the form of election
to purchase duly executed, accompanied by payment by certified check, cashier’s check, bank draft or money order payable
to the Corporation or the Rights Agent of the Exercise Price for the shares to be purchased and an amount equal to any applicable
Transfer Tax required to be paid by the holder of the Rights Certificate in accordance with Section 9(e) hereof, the Rights
Agent shall thereupon promptly (i)(A) requisition from any registrar or transfer agent (as may be appropriate) of the Preferred
Stock of the Corporation one or more certificates representing the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be so purchased, and
the Corporation hereby authorizes and directs such registrar or transfer agent (as may be appropriate) to comply with all such
requests or (B) requisition from any depositary agent for the Preferred Stock of the Corporation depositary receipts representing
such number of shares of Preferred Stock to be so purchased (in which case certificates for the shares of Preferred Stock represented
by such receipts shall be deposited by the transfer agent with the depositary agent), and the Corporation hereby directs any such
depositary agent to comply with such request, (ii) as provided in Section 14(b), at the election of the Corporation, cause
depositary receipts to be issued in lieu of fractional shares of Preferred Stock, (iii) if the election provided for in the immediately
preceding clause (ii) has not been made, requisition from the Corporation the amount of cash to be paid in lieu of the issuance
of fractional shares in accordance with Section 14(b) hereof, (iv) after receipt of such Preferred Stock certificates and,
if applicable, depositary receipts, cause the same to be delivered to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Rights
Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be designated by such holder and (v) when appropriate, after receipt, promptly
deliver such cash to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Rights Certificate; provided, however, that
in the case of a purchase of securities, other than Preferred Stock, pursuant to Section 13 hereof, the Rights Agent shall
promptly take the appropriate actions corresponding in such case to that referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) through (v)
of this Section 7(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(c), the Corporation may suspend
the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock upon exercise of a Right for a reasonable period, not in excess of 120 days, during
which the Corporation seeks to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and
any applicable securities law of any other jurisdiction, the shares of Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to the Rights; provided,
however, that nothing contained in this Section 7(c) shall relieve the Corporation of its obligations under Section
9(c) hereof.

 

(d)
In case the registered holder of any Rights Certificate shall exercise less than all the Rights evidenced thereby, a new Rights
Certificate evidencing Rights equivalent to the Rights remaining unexercised shall be issued by the Rights Agent to the registered
holder of such Rights Certificate or his assignee, subject to the provisions of Section 14(b) hereof.

 

(e)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Rights Agent nor the Corporation shall be obligated to
undertake any action with respect to a registered holder upon the occurrence of any purported exercise as set forth in this Section
7 unless such registered holder shall have (i) completed and signed the certificate following the form of election to purchase
set forth on the reverse side of the Rights Certificate surrendered for such exercise and (ii) provided such additional evidence
of the identity of the Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) or Affiliates or Associates thereof or a Person referred
to in clause (y) or (z) of Section 11(a)(ii) and such other information as the Corporation shall reasonably request.

 

    12

     

    

 

Section
8.Cancellation and Destruction of Rights Certificates.

 

All
Rights Certificates surrendered for the purpose of exercise, transfer, split up, combination or exchange shall, if surrendered
to the Corporation or to any of its agents, be delivered to the Rights Agent for cancellation or in canceled form, or, if surrendered
to the Rights Agent, shall be canceled by it, and no Rights Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted
by any of the provisions of this Rights Agreement. The Corporation shall deliver to the Rights Agent for cancellation and retirement,
and the Rights Agent shall cancel and retire, any Rights Certificate purchased or acquired by the Corporation otherwise than upon
the exercise thereof. The Rights Agent shall deliver all canceled Rights Certificates to the Corporation, or shall, at the written
request of the Corporation, destroy such canceled Rights Certificates, and in such case shall deliver a certificate of destruction
thereof to the Corporation.

 

Section
9.Reservation and Availability of Shares of Preferred Stock.

 

(a)
The Corporation covenants and agrees that it will cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued shares
of Preferred Stock or out of authorized and issued shares of Preferred Stock held in its treasury, such number of shares of Preferred
Stock as will from time to time be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Rights. The Corporation shall
take such action as may be required for it to comply with the foregoing sentence of this Section 9(a).

 

(b)
The Corporation shall use its best efforts to cause, from and after such time as the Rights become exercisable, all shares of
Preferred Stock issued or reserved for issuance in accordance with this Rights Agreement to be listed, upon official notice of
issuance, on the NASDAQ Capital Market or successor thereto or, if the principal market for the Common Stock is not the NASDAQ
Capital Market, to be eligible for quotation on any other national securities exchange or other comparable quotation system.

 

(c)
The Corporation covenants and agrees that it will take all such actions as may be necessary to insure that all shares of Preferred
Stock delivered upon exercise of Rights shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates, for such shares (subject to payment
of the Exercise Price in respect thereof), be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and nonassessable shares.

 

(d)
The Corporation shall use its best efforts to (i) file, as soon as practicable following the occurrence of the event described
in Section 11(a)(ii), or as soon as is required by law following the Distribution Date, as the case may be, a registration statement
under the Act, with respect to the shares of Preferred Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Rights on an appropriate form, (ii)
cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing, and (iii) cause such registration
statement to remain effective (with a prospectus at all times meeting the requirements of the Act) until the earlier of (A) the
date as of which the Rights are no longer exercisable for Preferred Stock, or (B) the Expiration Date. The Corporation may temporarily
suspend, for a period of time not to exceed 120 days, the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock upon exercise of a Right in order
to prepare and file a registration statement under the Act and permit it to become effective. The Corporation will also take such
action as may be appropriate under, or to ensure compliance with, the securities or “blue sky” laws of the various
states in connection with the exercisability of the Rights. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
Rights shall not be exercisable in any jurisdiction unless the requisite qualification in such jurisdiction shall have been obtained
and until a registration statement under the Act (if required) shall have been declared effective.

 

    13

     

    

 

(e)
The Corporation covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all federal and state Transfer Taxes which
may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Rights Certificates or of any shares of Preferred Stock issued or
delivered upon the exercise of Rights. The Corporation shall not, however, be required to pay any Transfer Tax which may be payable
in respect of any transfer or delivery of a Rights Certificate to a Person other than, or the issuance or delivery of certificates
or depositary receipts for Preferred Stock upon exercise of Rights in a name other than that of, the registered holder of the
Rights Certificate evidencing Rights surrendered for exercise, and the Corporation shall not be required to or issue or deliver
a Rights Certificate or certificate or depositary receipt for Preferred Stock to a Person other than such registered holder until
any such Transfer Tax shall have been paid (any such Transfer Tax being payable by the holder of such Rights Certificate at the
time of surrender) or until it has been established to the Corporation’s satisfaction that no such Transfer Tax is due.

 

Section
10.Preferred Stock Record Date.

 

Each
Person in whose name any certificate for shares of Preferred Stock is issued upon the exercise of Rights shall for all purposes
be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Preferred Stock represented thereby on, and such certificate shall be dated
as of, the date upon which the Rights Certificate evidencing such Rights was duly surrendered and payment of the Exercise Price
(and any applicable Transfer Taxes) was made; provided, however, that, if the date of such surrender and payment
is a date upon which the Preferred Stock transfer books of the Corporation are closed, such Person shall be deemed to have become
the record holder of such shares on, and such certificate shall be dated as of, the next succeeding Business Day on which the
Preferred Stock transfer books of the Corporation are open. Prior to the exercise of the Rights evidenced thereby, the holder
of a Rights Certificate, as such, shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Corporation with respect to shares
for which the Rights shall be exercisable, including, without limitation, the right to vote, to receive dividends or other distributions
or to exercise any preemptive rights, and shall not be entitled to receive any notice of any proceedings of the Corporation, except
as provided herein.

 

Section
11.Adjustment of Exercise Price, Number of Shares or Number of Rights.

 

The
Exercise Price and the number of shares of Preferred Stock which may be purchased upon exercise of a Right and the number of Rights
outstanding are subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 11.

 

(a)(i)In
the event the Corporation shall at any time after the date of this Rights Agreement (i) declare a dividend on the shares
of Preferred Stock payable in shares of Preferred Stock, (ii) subdivide the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, (iii) combine
the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock into a smaller number of shares of Preferred Stock or (iv) issue any shares of
its capital stock in a reclassification of the Preferred Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation
or merger in which the Corporation is the continuing or surviving corporation), except as otherwise provided in this Section 11(a),
the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination
or reclassification, and the number and kind of shares of capital stock issuable on such date, shall be proportionately adjusted
so that the holder of any Right exercised after such time shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares
of capital stock which, if such Right had been exercised immediately prior to such date, the holder would have owned upon such
exercise and been entitled to receive by virtue of such dividend, subdivision, combination or reclassification; provided,
however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate
par value of the shares of capital stock of the Corporation issuable upon exercise of one Right.

(ii)
Subject to the second paragraph of this Section 11(a)(ii) and to Section 27, from and after the Stock
Acquisition Date, each holder of a Right shall have a right to receive, upon exercise of each Right, in accordance with the terms
of this Rights Agreement and in lieu of shares of Preferred Stock, such number of shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock
as shall equal the result obtained by dividing the current Exercise Price by 50% of the then Current Per Share Market Price of
the Corporation’s Common Stock (determined pursuant to Section 11(d)) on the Stock Acquisition Date.

 

From
and after the Stock Acquisition Date, any Rights that are or were acquired or beneficially owned by (1) an Acquiring Person
(or any Associate or Affiliate of such Acquiring Person or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert), (2) a
transferee of any Acquiring Person (or of any such Associate or Affiliate or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting
in Concert) who becomes such a transferee after the Acquiring Person becomes an Acquiring Person or (3) a transferee of an
Acquiring Person (or of any such Associate or Affiliate or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert) who becomes
such a transferee prior to or concurrently with the Acquiring Person becoming an Acquiring Person and who receives such Rights
(I) with actual knowledge that the transferor is or was an Acquiring Person or (II) pursuant to either (x) a transfer
(whether or not for consideration) from the Acquiring Person (or any such Associate or Affiliate or any other Person with whom
such Person is Acting in Concert) to holders of equity interests in such Acquiring Person (or any such Associate or Affiliate
or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert) or to any Person with whom the Acquiring Person (or such Associate
or Affiliate or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in Concert) has any continuing agreement, arrangement, understanding
or relationship (whether or not in writing) regarding the transferred Rights or (y) a transfer which the Board of Directors
has determined is part of a plan, arrangement or understanding (whether or not in writing) which has as a primary purpose or effect
of the avoidance of this Section 11(a)(ii), (each such Person described in (1)-(3) above, an “Excluded
Person”) shall, in each such case, be null and void, and any holder of such Rights (whether or not such holder is
an Acquiring Person or an Associate or Affiliate of an Acquiring Person or any other Person with whom such Person is Acting in
Concert) shall thereafter have no right to exercise such Rights under any provision of this Rights Agreement. No Rights Certificates
shall be issued pursuant to Section 3, Section 6, Section 7(d) or Section 11 or otherwise hereof that
represents Rights that are or have become null and void pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph and any Rights Certificate
delivered to the Rights Agent that represents Rights that are or have become null and void pursuant to the provisions of this
paragraph shall, upon receipt of written notice directing it to do so, be canceled by the Rights Agent.

 

    15

     

    

 

(iii)
If there are not sufficient authorized but unissued shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock to permit the exercise in full
of the Rights in accordance with Section 11(a)(ii), or should the Board of Directors so elect, the Corporation shall
with respect to such deficiency, to the extent permitted by applicable law and any material agreements to which the Corporation
is a party, (i) determine the excess (the “Spread”) of (A) the value of the shares of the
Corporation’s Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of a Right as provided in Section 11(a)(ii) (the “Current
Value”) over (B) the Exercise Price, and (ii) with respect to each Right, make adequate provision to substitute
for such shares of Common Stock, upon payment of the applicable Exercise Price, any one or more of the following having an aggregate
value determined by the Board of Directors to be equal to the Current Value: (A) cash, (B) a reduction in the Exercise
Price, (C) shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock or other equity securities of the Corporation (including, without
limitation, shares, or units of shares, of preferred stock which the Board of Directors has determined to have the same value
as the Corporation’s Common Stock (“Common Stock Equivalents”)), (D) debt securities of the
Corporation or (E) other assets; provided, however, that if the Corporation shall not have made adequate provision
to deliver value pursuant to clause (ii) above within thirty days following the Stock Acquisition Date, then the Corporation
shall be obligated to deliver, upon the surrender for exercise of a Right and without requiring payment of the Exercise Price,
shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock (to the extent available) and then, if necessary, cash, which shares and cash shall
have an aggregate value equal to the Spread.

 

(b)
If the Board of Directors shall determine in good faith that it is likely that sufficient additional shares of the Corporation’s
Common Stock could be authorized for issuance upon exercise in full of the Rights, the 30-day period set forth above may be extended
to the extent necessary, but not more than 180 days after the Stock Acquisition Date, in order that the Corporation may seek
stockholder approval for the authorization of such additional shares (such period, as it may be extended, the “Substitution
Period”). If the Corporation determines that action need be taken pursuant to this Section 11(a)(iii),
the Corporation (x) shall provide, subject to Section 7(f) and the last paragraph of Section 11(a)(ii),
that such action shall apply uniformly to all outstanding Rights, and (y) may suspend the exercisability of the Rights until
the expiration of the Substitution Period in order to seek any authorization of additional shares, decide the appropriate form
of distribution to be made and determine the value thereof. If the exercisability of the Rights is suspended pursuant to this
Section 11(a)(iii), the Corporation shall make a public announcement, and shall deliver to the Rights Agent a statement,
stating that the exercisability of the Rights has been temporarily suspended. When the suspension is no longer in effect, the
Corporation shall make another public announcement, and deliver to the Rights Agent a statement, so stating. For purposes of this
Section 11(a)(iii), the value of the Corporation’s Common Stock shall be the Current Per Share Market Price
(as determined pursuant to Section 11(d)(i)) of the Corporation’s Common Stock as of the Stock Acquisition Date,
and the value of any Common Stock Equivalent shall be deemed to have the same value as the Corporation’s Common Stock on
such date.

 

    16

     

    

 

(c)
If the Corporation fixes a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of the Preferred Stock (including any distribution
made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Corporation is the continuing or surviving corporation) of evidences
of indebtedness or assets (other than a regular quarterly cash dividend or a dividend payable in shares of Preferred Stock ) or
subscription rights or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section 11(b)), the Exercise Price to be in effect
after such record date shall be determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by
a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the then Current Per Share Market Price of the Preferred Stock on such record
date, less the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be described
in a statement filed with the Rights Agent) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness to be distributed or of
such subscription rights or warrants applicable to one share of Preferred Stock and (ii) the denominator of which shall be
the then Current Per Share Market Price of the Preferred Stock; provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration
to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of Preferred Stock to be issued upon
exercise of one Right. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. If such distribution
is not so made, the Exercise Price shall again be adjusted to be the Exercise Price that would then be in effect if such record
date had not been fixed.

 

(d)
Current Per Share Market Price.

 

(i)
For the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “Current Per Share Market Price” of any security on
any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily closing prices per share of such security for the thirty consecutive Trading
Days immediately prior to such date; provided, however, that if the Current Per Share Market Price of the security
is determined during a period (i) following the announcement by the issuer of such security of (A) a dividend or distribution
on such security payable in shares of such security or other securities convertible into such shares, or (B) any subdivision,
combination or reclassification of such security, and (ii) prior to the expiration of 30 Trading Days after the ex-dividend
date for such dividend or distribution, or the record date for such subdivision, combination or reclassification, then, and in
each such case, the Current Per Share Market Price shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the current market price per share
equivalent of such security. The closing price for each day shall be the last sale price or, if no such sale takes place on such
day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, in either case as reported by NASDAQ, or, if on any such date the security
is not listed on NASDAQ, the average of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a
market in the security selected by the Board of Directors. If on any such date no such market maker is making a market in the
security, the fair value of the security on such date as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors shall be used.

 

(ii)
For the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “Current Per Share Market Price” of the Preferred
Stock shall be determined in accordance with the method set forth in Section 11(d)(i). If the Preferred Stock is not
publicly traded, the “Current Per Share Market Price” of the Preferred Stock shall be conclusively deemed
to be the Current Per Share Market Price of the Corporation’s Common Stock as determined pursuant to Section 11(d)(i)
(appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date hereof)
multiplied by one hundred. If neither the Common Stock nor the Preferred Stock is publicly held or so listed or traded, “Current
Per Share Market Price” means the fair value per share as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose
determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent.

 

    17

     

    

 

(e)
No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at
least 1% in the Exercise Price; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 11(e)
are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations
under this Section 11 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one ten-thousandth of a share of Preferred
Stock or one ten-thousandth of any other share or security as the case may be. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 11(e),
any adjustment required by this Section 11 shall be made no later than three years from the date of the transaction
which requires such adjustment.

 

(f)
If, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 11(a), the holder of any Right thereafter exercised shall
become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Corporation other than Preferred Stock, the number of such other
shares so receivable upon exercise of any Right shall thereafter be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on
terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Preferred Stock contained in Section 11(a)-(c),
inclusive, and the provisions of Section 7, Section 9, Section 10 and Section 13 with respect
to the Preferred Stock shall apply on like terms to any such other shares.

 

(g)
All Rights originally issued by the Corporation subsequent to any adjustment made to the Exercise Price hereunder shall evidence
the right to purchase, at the adjusted Exercise Price, the number of shares of Preferred Stock purchasable from time to time hereunder
upon exercise of the Rights, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

 

(h)
Unless the Corporation exercises its election as provided in Section 11(i), upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price
as a result of the calculations made in Section 11(b) and Section 11(c), each Right outstanding immediately
prior to the making of such adjustment shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted Exercise Price, that number
of one one-hundredth of a share of Preferred Stock (calculated to the nearest one one-thousandth of a share of Preferred Stock)
obtained by (i) multiplying the number of one one-hundredth of a shares of Preferred Stock covered by a Right immediately
prior to this adjustment by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment of the Exercise Price and (ii) dividing
the product by the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment of the Exercise Price.

 

    18

     

    

 

(i)
The Corporation may elect on or after the date of any adjustment of the Exercise Price to adjust the number of Rights in substitution
for any adjustment in the number of shares of Preferred Stock purchasable upon the exercise of a Right. Each of the Rights outstanding
after such adjustment of the number of Rights shall be exercisable for the number of shares of Preferred Stock for which a Right
was exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment. Each Right held of record prior to such adjustment of the number of Rights
shall become that number of Rights (calculated to the nearest one hundred-thousandth) obtained by dividing the Exercise Price
in effect immediately prior to adjustment of the Exercise Price by the Exercise Price in effect immediately after adjustment of
the Exercise Price. The Corporation shall make a public announcement (with prompt written notice thereof to the Rights Agent)
of its election to adjust the number of Rights, indicating the record date for the adjustment and, if known at the time, the amount
of the adjustment to be made. The record date may be the date on which the Exercise Price is adjusted or any day thereafter but,
if the Rights Certificates have been distributed, shall be at least 10 days after the date of the public announcement. If
Rights Certificates have been distributed, upon each adjustment of the number of Rights pursuant to this Section 11(i),
the Corporation shall, as promptly as practicable, cause to be distributed to holders of record of Rights Certificates on such
record date Rights Certificates evidencing, subject to Section 14, the additional Rights to which such holders shall
be entitled as a result of such adjustment or, at the option of the Corporation, shall cause to be distributed to such holders
of record in substitution and replacement for the Rights Certificates held by such holders prior to the date of adjustment, and
upon surrender thereof if required by the Corporation, new Rights Certificates evidencing all the Rights to which such holders
shall be entitled after such adjustment. Rights Certificates to be so distributed shall be issued, executed and countersigned
in the manner provided for herein and shall be registered in the names of the holders of record of Rights Certificates on the
record date specified in the public announcement.

 

(j)
Irrespective of any adjustment or change in the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Preferred Stock issuable upon the exercise
of the Rights, the Rights Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued may continue to express the Exercise Price and the number
of shares of Preferred Stock which were expressed in the initial Rights Certificates issued hereunder.

 

(k)
Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Exercise Price below the then par value of the Preferred
Stock issuable upon exercise of the Rights, the Corporation shall take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel,
be necessary in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Preferred Stock
at such adjusted Exercise Price.

 

(l)
If this Section 11 requires that an adjustment in the Exercise Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified
event, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the holder of any Right exercised after such
record date shares of Preferred Stock and other capital stock or securities of the Corporation, if any, issuable upon such exercise
over and above the Preferred Stock and other capital stock or securities of the Corporation, if any, issuable upon such exercise
on the basis of the Exercise Price in effect prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall
deliver to such holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional
shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring adjustment.

 

(m)
Anything in this Section 11 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Corporation shall be entitled to make such reductions
in the Exercise Price, in addition to those adjustments expressly required by this Section 11, as and to the extent
that it in its sole discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any (i) combination or subdivision of the Preferred
Stock, (ii) issuance wholly for cash of any shares of Preferred Stock at less than the Current Per Share Market Price, (iii) issuance
wholly for cash of shares of Preferred Stock or securities which by their terms are convertible into or exchangeable for shares
of Preferred Stock, (iv) dividends on the Preferred Stock payable in shares of Preferred Stock, or (v) issuance of any
rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 11(b) made by the Corporation after the date of this Rights Agreement
to holders of its Preferred Stock shall not be taxable to such stockholders.

 

    19

     

    

 

(n)
If, at any time after the date of this Rights Agreement and prior to the Distribution Date, the Corporation (i) declares
or pays any dividend on the Corporation’s Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock or (ii) effects a subdivision,
combination or consolidation of the Corporation’s Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise other than by payment of
dividends in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in any such case (x) the
number of one one-hundredths of a share of Preferred Stock purchasable after such event upon exercise of each Right shall be determined
by multiplying the number of one one-thousandths of a share of Preferred Stock so purchasable immediately prior to such event
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and the
denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and (y) each share
of the Corporation’s Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event shall have issued with respect to it that number
of Rights which each share of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event had issued with respect to it. The adjustments
provided for in this Section 11(n) shall be made successively whenever such a dividend is declared or paid or such
a subdivision, combination or consolidation is effected.

 

Section
12.Certification of Adjusted Exercise Price or Number of Shares.

 

Whenever
an adjustment is made as provided in Section 11, Section 13 or Section 23(c), the Corporation shall (a) promptly
prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, and a brief statement of the facts giving rise to such adjustment and the
computation, methodology and accounting for such adjustment, (b) promptly file with the Rights Agent and with each transfer agent
for the Preferred Stock a copy of such certificate and (c) mail a brief summary thereof to each holder of a Rights Certificate
in accordance with Section 25. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the failure of the Corporation to make such certification
or give such notice shall not affect the validity of or the force or effect of the requirement for such adjustment. Any adjustment
to be made pursuant to Section 11, Section 13 or Section 23(c) of this Rights Agreement shall be effective
as of the date of the event giving rise to such adjustment. The Rights Agent shall be fully protected in relying on any such certificate
and on any adjustment therein contained and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment unless and until it shall
have received such certificate.

 

    20

     

    

 

Section
13.Consolidation, Merger or Sale or Transfer of Assets or Earning Power.

 

(a)
In the event that, at any time after the time that any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, (x) the Corporation shall, directly
or indirectly, consolidate with, or merge with and into, any other Person or Persons (other than an Exempt Person or Persons)
and the Corporation shall not be the surviving or continuing corporation of such consolidation or merger, or (y) any Person or
Persons (other than an Exempt Person) shall, directly or indirectly, consolidate with, or merge with and into, the Corporation,
and the Corporation shall be the continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger and, in connection with such
consolidation or merger, all or part of the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or exchanged for stock or
other securities of any other Person (other than an Exempt Person) or of the Corporation or cash or any other property, or (z)
the Corporation or one or more of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, sell or otherwise transfer to any other Person
or any Affiliate or Associate of such Person, in one or more transactions, or the Corporation or one or more of its Subsidiaries
shall sell or otherwise transfer to any Persons in one or a series of related transactions, assets or Earning Power (as defined
herein) aggregating more than 50% of the assets or Earning Power of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), then,
on the first occurrence of any such event, proper provision shall be made so that (i) each holder of record of a Right, except
as provided in Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, shall thereafter have the right to receive, upon the exercise thereof and payment
of the Exercise Price in accordance with the terms of this Rights Agreement and in lieu of shares of Preferred Stock, such number
of shares of validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and freely tradable Common Stock of the Principal Party (as defined herein),
not subject to any liens, encumbrances, rights of first refusal or other adverse claims, as shall equal the result obtained by
dividing the Exercise Price by 50% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock of the Principal Party on the date of the consummation
of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer; (ii) such Principal Party shall thereafter be liable for, and shall assume, by
virtue of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, all the obligations and duties of the Corporation pursuant to this Rights
Agreement; (iii) the term “Corporation” for all purposes of this Rights Agreement shall thereafter be deemed to refer
to such Principal Party; (iv) such Principal Party shall take such steps (including, but not limited to, the reservation of a
sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 hereof applicable to the
reservation of Preferred Stock) in connection with such consummation as may be necessary to insure that the provisions hereof
shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to its shares of Common Stock thereafter deliverable
upon the exercise of the Rights; provided, however, that, upon the subsequent occurrence of any merger, consolidation,
sale of all or substantially all of the assets, recapitalization, reclassification of shares, reorganization or other extraordinary
transaction in respect of such Principal Party, each holder of a Right shall thereupon be entitled to receive, upon exercise of
a Right and payment of the Exercise Price, such cash, shares, rights, warrants and other property which such holder would have
been entitled to receive had it, at the time of such transaction, owned the shares of Common Stock of the Principal Party purchasable
upon the exercise of a Right, and such Principal Party shall take such steps (including, but not limited to, reservation of shares
of stock) as may be necessary to permit the subsequent exercise of the Rights in accordance with the terms hereof for such cash,
shares, rights, warrants and other property; and (v) the provisions of Section 11 (a)(ii) hereof shall be of no effect
following the occurrence of any event described in clause (x), (y) or (z) above of this Section 13(a).

 

(b)
“Earning Power” of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall be determined in good faith by the Corporation’s
Board of Directors on the basis of the operating earnings of each business operated by the Corporation and its Subsidiaries during
the three fiscal years preceding the date of such determination (or, in the case of any business not operated by the Corporation
or any Subsidiary during three full fiscal years preceding such date, during the period such business was operated by the Corporation
or any Subsidiary).

 

    21

     

    

 

(c)
“Principal Party” shall mean:

 

(i)
in the case of any transaction described in (x) or (y) of the first sentence of Section 13(a) hereof: (A) the Person that
is the issuer of the securities into which shares of Common Stock of the Corporation are changed or otherwise exchanged or converted
in such merger or consolidation, or, if there is more than one such issuer, the issuer of the Common Stock of which has the greatest
market value or (B) if no securities are so issued, (x) the Person that is the other party to the merger or consolidation and
that survives such merger or consolidation, or, if there is more than one such Person, the Person the Common Stock of which has
the greatest market value or (y) if the Person that is the other party to the merger or consolidation does not survive the merger
or consolidation, the Person that does survive the merger or consolidation (including the Corporation if it survives); and

 

(ii)
in the case of any transaction described in (z) of the first sentence in Section 13(a), the Person that is the party receiving
the greatest portion of the assets or Earning Power transferred pursuant to such transaction or transactions, or, if each Person
that is a party to such transaction or transactions receives the same portion of the assets or Earning Power so transferred or
if the Person receiving the greatest portion of the assets or Earning Power cannot be determined, whichever of such Persons as
is the issuer of Common Stock having the greatest market value of shares outstanding;

 

provided,
however, that in any case, (1) if the Common Stock of such Person is not at such time and has not been continuously over
the preceding 12-month period registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and such Person is a direct or indirect Subsidiary
of another Person the Common Stock of which is and has been so registered, the term “Principal Party” shall refer
to such other Person; (3) if such Person is a Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, or Affiliate of more than one Person, the Common
Stock of two or more of which are and have been so registered, the term “Principal Party” shall refer to whichever
of such Persons is the issuer of the Common Stock having the greatest market value of shares outstanding; and (3) if such
Person is owned, directly or indirectly, by a joint venture formed by two or more Persons that are not owned, directly or indirectly,
by the same Person, the rules set forth in (1) and (2) above shall apply to each of the chains of ownership having
an interest in such joint venture as if such party were a “Subsidiary” of both or all of such joint venturers and
the Principal Parties in each such chain shall bear the obligations set forth in this Section 13 in the same ratio
as their direct or indirect interests in such Person bear to the total of such interests.

 

    22

     

    

 

(d)
The Corporation shall not consummate any consolidation, merger or sale or transfer of assets or Earning Power referred to in Section
13(a) unless the Principal Party shall have a sufficient number of authorized shares of its Common Stock that have not been
issued or reserved for issuance to permit exercise in full of all Rights in accordance with this Section 13 and unless
prior thereto the Corporation and each Principal Party and each other Person that may become a Principal Party as a result of
such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer shall have executed and delivered to the Rights Agent an agreement confirming that
the Principal Party shall, upon consummation of such consolidation, merger or sale or transfer of assets or Earning Power, assume
this Rights Agreement in accordance with Section 13(a) hereof and that all rights of first refusal or preemptive rights
in respect of the issuance of shares of Common Stock of the Principal Party upon exercise of outstanding Rights have been waived
and that such transaction shall not result in a default by the Principal Party under this Rights Agreement, and further providing
that, as soon as practicable after the date of any consolidation, merger or sale or a transfer of assets or Earning Power referred
to in Section 13(a) hereof, the Principal Party will:

 

(i)
prepare and file a registration statement under the Act with respect to the Rights and the securities purchasable upon exercise
of the Rights on an appropriate form, use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as
practicable after such filing and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to remain effective (with a prospectus
at all times meeting the requirements of the Act) until the date of expiration of the Rights, and similarly comply with applicable
state securities laws;

 

(ii)
use its best efforts to (1) list (or continue the listing of) the Rights and the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights
on a national securities exchange or to meet the eligibility requirements for quotation on the NASDAQ Capital Market, and (2)
qualify or register the Rights and the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights under the blue sky laws of such jurisdictions
as may be necessary or appropriate; and

 

(iii)
deliver to holders of the Rights historical financial statements for the Principal Party and each of its Affiliates which comply
in all respects with the requirements for registration on Form 10 (or any successor form) under the Exchange Act. In the event
that any of the transactions described in Section 13(a) hereof shall occur at any time after the occurrence of a transaction
described in Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, the Rights which have not theretofore been exercised shall, subject to the provisions
of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, thereafter be exercisable in the manner described in Section 13(a).

 

(e)
In case the Principal Party which is to be a party to a transaction referred to in this Section 13 has a provision in any
of its authorized securities or in its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, or Amended and Restated By-laws, as amended,
or other instrument governing its corporate affairs, which provision would have the effect of (i) causing such Principal Party
to issue, in connection with, or as a consequence of, the consummation of a transaction referred to in this Section 13,
shares of Common Stock of such Principal Party at less than the then Fair Market Value per share (determined pursuant to Section
11(b) hereof) or securities exercisable for, or convertible into, Common Stock of such Principal Party at less than such then
Fair Market Value (other than to holders of Rights pursuant to this Section 13) or (ii) providing for any special or similar
payment in connection with the issuance to any holder of a Right of Common Stock of such Principal Party pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 13, then, in such event, the Corporation shall not consummate any such transaction unless prior thereto
the Corporation and such Principal Party shall have executed and delivered to the Rights Agent a supplemental agreement providing
that the provision in question of such Principal Party shall have been canceled, waived or amended, or that the authorized securities
shall be redeemed, so that the applicable provision will have no effect in connection with, or as a consequence of, the consummation
of the proposed transaction.

 

    23

     

    

 

Section
14.Fractional Rights and Fractional Shares.

 

(a)
The Corporation shall not be required to issue fractions of Rights or to distribute Rights Certificates which evidence fractional
Rights (i.e., Rights to acquire less than one one-hundredth of a share of Preferred Stock). If the Corporation shall determine
not to issue such fractional Rights, then, in lieu of such fractional Rights, there shall be paid to the holders of record of
the Rights Certificates with regard to which such fractional Rights would otherwise be issuable, an amount in cash equal to the
same fraction of the Fair Market Value of a whole Right. For the purposes of this Section 14(a), the Fair Market Value
of a whole Right shall be the closing price of the Rights for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date on which such fractional
Rights would have been otherwise issuable. The closing price for any day shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case
no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported
in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed or admitted to trading on NASDAQ,
or, if the Rights are not listed or admitted to trading on NASDAQ, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting
system with respect to securities listed on the principal national securities exchange on which the Rights are listed or admitted
to trading, or, if the Rights are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price
or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices in the over-the-counter market, as reported by such other
system then in use, or, if on any such date the Rights are not quoted by any such organization, the average of the closing bid
and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the Rights selected by the Board of Directors,
or, if on any such date no professional market maker is making a market in the Rights, the Fair Market Value of a whole Right
shall be determined by an independent investment banking firm experienced in the valuation of securities selected in good faith
by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or, if no such investment banking firm is, in the good faith judgment of the Board
of Directors, available to make such determination, the Fair Market Value of a whole Right on such date shall be determined in
good faith by the Board of Directors.

 

(b)
The Corporation shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Preferred Stock (other than fractions which are integral
multiples of one-hundredth of a share) upon exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional shares
(other than fractions which are integral multiples of one-hundredth of a share). In lieu of issuing fractions of shares of Preferred
Stock, the Corporation may, at its election, issue depositary receipts evidencing fractions of shares pursuant to an appropriate
agreement between the Corporation and a depositary selected by it, provided that such agreement shall provide that the holders
of such depositary receipts shall have all of the rights, privileges and preferences to which they would be entitled as owners
of the Preferred Stock. With respect to fractional shares that are not integral multiples of one-hundredth of a share, if the
Corporation does not issue such fractional shares or depositary receipts in lieu thereof, there shall be paid to the holders of
record of Rights Certificates at the time such Rights are exercised as herein provided an amount in cash equal to the same fraction
of the Fair Market Value of a share of Preferred Stock.

 

(c)
Following the occurrence of one of the transactions or events specified in Section 11 hereof giving rise to the right
to receive shares of Common Stock, capital stock equivalents (other than shares of Preferred Stock) or other securities upon the
exercise of a Right, the Corporation shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock or units of such Common
Stock, capital stock equivalents or other securities upon exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional
shares of Common Stock, capital stock equivalents or other securities. In lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock, capital
stock equivalents or other securities, the Corporation shall pay to the registered holders of Rights Certificates at the time
such Rights are exercised as herein provided an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of one share
of Common Stock or unit of such Common Stock, capital stock equivalents or other securities. For purposes of this Section 14(c),
the Fair Market Value shall be the current closing price for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise and,
if such capital stock equivalent is not traded, each such capital stock equivalent shall have the value of one one-hundredth of
a share of Preferred Stock.

 

    24

     

    

 

(d)
Whenever a payment for fractional Rights or fractional shares is to be made by the Rights Agent under any section of this Rights
Agreement, the Corporation shall (i) promptly prepare and deliver to the Rights Agent a certificate setting forth in reasonable
detail the facts related to such payments and the prices and formulas utilized in calculating such payments, and (ii) provide
sufficient monies to the Rights Agent in the form of fully collected funds to make such payments. The Rights Agent shall be fully
protected in relying upon such a certificate and shall have no duty with respect to, and shall not be deemed to have knowledge
of, any payment for fractional Rights or fractional shares under any section of this Rights Agreement relating to the payment
of fractional Rights or fractional shares unless and until the Rights Agent shall have received such a certificate and sufficient
monies.

 

(e)
The holder of a Right by the acceptance of a Right expressly waives his, her or its right to receive any fractional Right or any
fractional shares of Preferred Stock (other than fractions which are integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a share) upon
exercise of a Right.

 

Section
15.Rights of Action.

 

All
rights of action in respect of this Rights Agreement, except the rights of action given to the Rights Agent in Section 18
and Section 20 hereof, are vested in the respective registered holders of the Rights Certificates (and, prior to the Distribution
Date, the holders of record of the Common Stock); and any holder of record of any Rights Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution
Date, of the Common Stock), without the consent of the Rights Agent or of the holder of any other Rights Certificate (or, prior
to the Distribution Date, of the Common Stock), may, in his own behalf and for his own benefit, enforce, and may institute and
maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Corporation to enforce, or otherwise act in respect of, his, her or its right
to exercise the Rights evidenced by such Rights Certificate in the manner provided in such Rights Certificate and in this Rights
Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing or any remedies available to the holders of Rights, it is specifically acknowledged
that the holders of Rights would not have an adequate remedy at law for any breach of this Rights Agreement and will be entitled
to specific performance of the obligations under, and injunctive relief against actual or threatened violations of, the obligations
of any Person subject to this Rights Agreement.

 

Section
16.Agreement of Right Holders.

 

Each
holder of a Right, by accepting the same, consents and agrees with the Corporation and the Rights Agent and with every other holder
of a Right that:

 

(a)
Prior to the Distribution Date, the Rights shall be evidenced by the Book-Entries representing, or the certificates for, Common
Stock registered in the name of the holders of Common Stock (together, as applicable, with the Summary of Rights), which Book
Entries representing, or the certificates for, Common Stock shall also constitute certificates for Rights, and not by separate
Rights Certificates, and each Right shall be transferable only simultaneously and together with the transfer of shares of Common
Stock;

 

    25

     

    

 

(b)
After the Distribution Date, the Rights Certificates are transferable (subject to the provisions of this Rights Agreement) only
on the registry books of the Rights Agent if surrendered at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose, duly endorsed
or accompanied by a proper instrument of transfer;

 

(c)
The Corporation and the Rights Agent may deem and treat the person in whose name the Rights Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution
Date, the associated Book Entry representing, or certificate for, Common Stock) is registered as the absolute owner thereof and
of the Rights evidenced thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing on the Rights Certificates or the associated
Common Stock certificate made by anyone other than the Corporation or the Rights Agent) for all purposes whatsoever, and neither
the Corporation nor the Rights Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary;

 

(d)
Notwithstanding anything in this Rights Agreement to the contrary, neither the Corporation nor the Rights Agent shall have any
liability to any holder of a Right or a beneficial interest in a Right or other Person as a result of its inability to perform
any of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of any preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree or ruling
issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or commission, or any statute,
rule, regulation or executive order promulgated or enacted by any governmental authority, prohibiting or otherwise restraining
performance of such obligation; provided, however, the Corporation must use its best efforts to have any such order,
decree or ruling lifted or otherwise overturned as soon as possible; and

 

(e)
Rights Beneficially Owned by certain persons will under certain circumstances set forth in this Rights Agreement become null and
void pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof; and

 

(f)
This Rights Agreement may be supplemented or amended from time to time pursuant to Section 26 hereof.

 

Section
17.Rights Certificate Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder.

 

No
holder, as such, of any Rights Certificate shall be entitled to vote, receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder
of Preferred Stock or any other securities which may at any time be issuable on the exercise of the Rights represented thereby,
nor shall anything contained herein or in any Rights Certificate be construed to confer upon the holder of any Rights Certificate,
as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Corporation or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any
matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, or to receive
notice of meetings or other actions affecting stockholders (except as provided in Section 26 hereof), or to receive dividends
or subscription rights, or otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by such Rights Certificate shall have been exercised
in accordance with the provisions hereof.

 

    26

     

    

 

Section
18.Concerning the Rights Agreement.

 

(a)
The Corporation agrees to pay to the Rights Agent reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder and, from
time to time, on demand of the Rights Agent, its reasonable expenses and counsel fees and other disbursements incurred in the
administration and execution of this Rights Agreement and the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder. The Corporation
also agrees to indemnify the Rights Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability, or expense (including, without
limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) incurred without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct
on the part of the Rights Agent, for anything done or failed to be done by the Rights Agent in connection with the acceptance
and administration of this Rights Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim of liability relating
to the Rights or this Rights Agreement. The provisions under this Section 18 and Section 20 below shall
survive the expiration of the Rights and the termination of this Agreement and the resignation, replacement or removal of the
Rights Agent. The reasonable costs and expenses incurred in enforcing this right of indemnification shall be paid by the Corporation
to the extent that the Rights Agent is successful in so enforcing its right of indemnification.

 

(b)
The Rights Agent shall be protected against, and shall incur no liability for or in respect of, any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it in connection with its administration of this Rights Agreement in reliance upon any Rights Certificate or certificate
for Preferred Stock or for other securities of the Corporation, instrument of assignment or transfer, power of attorney, endorsement,
affidavit, letter, notice, direction, consent certificate, statement or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and
to be signed, executed and, where necessary, verified or acknowledged, by the proper person or persons, or otherwise upon the
advice of counsel as set forth in Section 20 hereof. In no case will the Rights Agent be liable for special, indirect,
incidental or consequential or consequential loss or damage at any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits),
even if the Rights Agent has been advised of such loss or damage.

 

Section
19.Merger or Consolidation of, or Change in Name of, the Rights Agent.

 

(a)
Any Person into which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any
Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent shall be a party, or
any Person succeeding to the corporate trust or stock transfer business of the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent, shall
be the successor to the Rights Agent under this Rights Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act
on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that such Person would be eligible for appointment as a successor Rights
Agent under the provisions of Section 21 hereof. In case at the time such successor Rights Agent shall succeed to the agency
created by this Rights Agreement any of the Rights Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered, any such successor
Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature of the predecessor Rights Agent and deliver such Rights Certificates so countersigned;
and in case at that time any of the Rights Certificates shall not have been countersigned, any successor Rights Agent may countersign
such Rights Certificates either in the name of the predecessor Rights Agent or in the name of the successor Rights Agent; and
in all such cases such Rights Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Rights Certificates and in this Rights Agreement.

 

(b)
In case at any time the name of the Rights Agent shall be changed and at such time any of the Rights Certificates shall have been
countersigned but not delivered, the Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature under its prior name and deliver Rights Certificates
so countersigned; in case at that time any of the Rights Certificates shall not have been countersigned, the Rights Agent may
countersign such Rights Certificates either in its prior name or in its changed name; in all such cases such Rights Certificates
shall have the full force provided in the Rights Certificates and in this Rights Agreement.

 

    27

     

    

 

Section
20.Duties of Rights Agent.

 

The
Rights Agent undertakes to perform only the duties and obligations expressly set forth in this Rights Agreement and no implied
duties or obligations shall be read into this Rights Agreement against the Rights Agent. The Rights Agent shall perform its duties
and obligations hereunder upon the following terms and conditions, by all of which the Corporation and the holders of Rights Certificates,
by their acceptance thereof, shall be bound:

 

(a)
The Rights Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be legal counsel for the Corporation), and the advice or opinion of such
counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Rights Agent as to any action taken or omitted by it in
good faith and in accordance with such opinion.

 

(b)
Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Rights Agreement the Rights Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that
any fact or matter be proved or established by the Corporation prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such fact or
matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and
established by a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President or any Vice President and
by the Treasurer or the Secretary of the Corporation and delivered to the Rights Agent. Any such certificate shall be full authorization
to the Rights Agent for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it under the provisions of this Rights Agreement in reliance
upon such certificate.

 

(c)
The Rights Agent shall be liable hereunder to the Corporation and any other Person only for its own gross negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct.

 

(d)
The Rights Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact or recitals contained in this Rights Agreement
or in the Rights Certificates (except its countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same, but all such statements
and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Corporation only.

 

(e)
The Rights Agent shall not be under any responsibility in respect of the validity of this Rights Agreement or the execution and
delivery hereof (except the due execution hereof by the Rights Agent) or in respect of the validity or execution of any Rights
Certificate (except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Corporation of any covenant
or condition contained in this Rights Agreement or in any Rights Certificate; nor shall it be responsible for any change in the
exercisability of the Rights (including the Rights becoming void pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) or any
adjustment required under the provisions of Section 11 or Section 13 hereof or responsible for the manner, method
or amount of any such adjustment or the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such adjustment (except
with respect to the exercise of Rights evidenced by Rights Certificates after receipt of a certificate describing any such adjustment);
nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or reservation of any
shares of Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to this Rights Agreement or any Rights Certificate or as to whether any shares
of Preferred Stock will, when issued, be validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

    28

     

    

 

(f)
The Corporation agrees that it will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged
and delivered all such further and other acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Rights Agent for
the carrying out or performing by the Rights Agent of the provisions of the Rights Agreement.

 

(g)
The Rights Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder
from the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President or any Vice President or the Secretary or the Treasurer of
the Corporation, and to apply to such officers for advice or instructions in connection with its duties, and it shall not be liable
for any action taken or suffered to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with instructions of any such officer or for any
delay in acting while waiting for those instructions. Any application by the Rights Agent for written instructions from the Corporation
may, at the option of the Rights Agent, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Rights Agent with
respect to its duties or obligations under this Rights Agreement and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken
or omitted and the Rights Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted in accordance with a proposal included in
any such application on or after the date specified therein (which date shall not be less than three Business Days after the date
indicated in such application unless any such officer shall have consented in writing to an earlier date) unless, prior to taking
or omitting any such action, the Rights Agent has received written instructions in response to such application specifying the
action to be taken or omitted.

 

(h)
The Rights Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Rights Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Rights
or other securities of the Corporation or become financially interested in any transaction in which the Corporation may be interested,
or contract with or lend money to the Corporation or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not the Rights Agent
under this Rights Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Rights Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Corporation
or for any other legal entity.

 

(i)
The Rights Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either
itself or by or through its attorneys or agents, and the Rights Agent shall not be answerable or accountable for any act, default,
neglect or misconduct of any such attorneys or agents or for any loss to the Corporation resulting from any such act, default,
neglect or misconduct, provided reasonable care was exercised in the selection and continued employment thereof.

 

(j)
No provision of this Rights Agreement shall require the Rights Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of its rights if the Rights Agent believes
that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnification against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

 

    29

     

    

 

(k)
The Rights Agent shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any fact, event or determination (including,
without limitation, any dates or events defined in this Rights Agreement or the designation of any Person as an Acquiring Person,
Affiliate or Associate or Person with whom another Person is Acting in Concert) under this Rights Agreement unless and until the
Rights Agent shall be specifically notified in writing by the Corporation of such fact, event or determination.

 

(l)
If, with respect to any Rights Certificate surrendered to the Rights Agent for exercise or transfer, the certificate attached
to the form of assignment or form of election to purchase, as the case may be, has not been executed, the Rights Agent shall not
take any further action with respect to such requested exercise of transfer without first consulting with the Corporation.

 

Section
21.Change of Rights Agent.

 

The
Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties under this Rights Agreement upon 30 days
notice in writing mailed to the Corporation and to each transfer agent of the Common Stock and the Preferred Stock by registered
or certified mail. The Corporation may remove the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent (with or without cause) upon 30 days
notice in writing, mailed to the Rights Agent or successor Rights Agent, as the case may be, and to each transfer agent of the
Common Stock and the Preferred Stock by registered or certified mail. If the Rights Agent shall resign or be removed or shall
otherwise become incapable of acting, the Corporation shall appoint a successor to the Rights Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 21, in no event shall the resignation or removal of a Rights Agent be effective until a successor
Rights Agent shall have been appointed and have accepted such appointment. If the Corporation shall fail to make such appointment
within a period of 30 days after such removal or after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the
resigning or incapacitated Rights Agent or by the holder of a Rights Certificate (who shall, with such notice, submit his Rights
Certificate for inspection by the Corporation), then the incumbent Rights Agent or the holder of record of any Rights Certificate
may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a new Rights Agent. Any successor Rights Agent, whether
appointed by the Corporation or by such a court, shall be (a) a Person organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States or of any state thereof, in good standing, which is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust or stock transfer
powers and is subject to supervision or examination in the conduct of its corporate trust or stock transfer business by federal
or state authorities and which has at the time of its appointment as Rights Agent a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000
or (b) an Affiliate controlled by a Person described in clause (a) of this sentence. After appointment, the successor Rights Agent
shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Rights Agent without
further act or deed, but the predecessor Rights Agent shall deliver and transfer to the successor Rights Agent any property at
the time held by it hereunder, and execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose.
Not later than the effective date of any such appointment, the Corporation shall file notice thereof in writing with the predecessor
Rights Agent and each transfer agent of the Common Stock and Preferred Stock, and mail a notice thereof in writing to the registered
holders of the Rights Certificates. Failure to give any notice provided for in this Section 21, however, or any defect
therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the Rights Agent or the appointment of the
successor Rights Agent, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in the event of resignation, removal or
incapacity of the Rights Agent, the Corporation shall have the authority to act as the Rights Agent until a successor Rights Agent
shall have assumed the duties of the Rights Agent hereunder.

 

    30

     

    

 

Section
22.Issuance of New Rights Certificates.

 

Notwithstanding
any of the provisions of this Rights Agreement or of the Rights to the contrary, the Corporation may, at its option, issue new
Rights Certificates evidencing Rights in such form as may be approved by its Board of Directors to reflect any adjustment or change
in the Exercise Price per share and the number or kind or class of shares of stock or other securities or property purchasable
under the Rights Certificates made in accordance with the provisions of this Rights Agreement. In addition, in connection with
the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock following the Distribution Date and prior to the earlier of the Redemption Date
(as defined herein) and the Close of Business on the Expiration Date, the Corporation may, with respect to shares of Common Stock
so issued or sold (a) pursuant to the exercise of stock options; (b) under any employment plan or arrangement; (c) upon
the exercise, conversion or exchange of securities, notes or debentures issued by the Corporation; or (d) pursuant to a contractual
obligation of the Corporation, in each case existing prior to the Distribution Date, issue Rights Certificates representing the
appropriate number of Rights in connection with such issuance or sale; provided, however, that (i) the Corporation
shall not be obligated to issue any such Rights Certificates if, and to the extent that, the Corporation shall be advised by counsel
that such issuance would create a significant risk of material adverse tax consequences to the Corporation or the Person to whom
such Rights Certificate would be issued, and (ii) no Rights Certificate shall be issued if, and to the extent that, appropriate
adjustment shall otherwise have been made in lieu of the issuance thereof.

 

Section
23.Redemption.

 

(a)
The Corporation may, at its option, but only by the vote of a majority of the Board of Directors, redeem all but not less than
all of the then outstanding Rights, at any time prior to the Close of Business on the earlier of (i) the tenth day following the
Stock Acquisition Date (subject to extension by the Corporation as provided in Section 26 hereof) or (ii) the Expiration
Date, at a redemption price of $0.01 per Right, subject to adjustments as provided in subsection (c) below (the “Redemption
Price”). The redemption of the Rights by the Board of Directors may be made effective at such time, on such basis
and subject to such conditions as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion may establish.

 

(b)
Immediately upon the action of the Board of Directors ordering the redemption of the Rights pursuant to Section 23(a) hereof,
and without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right thereafter
of the holders of Rights shall be to receive the Redemption Price. The Corporation shall promptly give public notice of any such
redemption; provided, however, that the failure to give, or any defect in, any such notice shall not affect the
validity of such redemption. Within 10 days after the effective time of the action of the Board of Directors ordering the redemption
of the Rights, the Corporation shall give notice of such redemption to the holders of the then outstanding Rights by mailing such
notice to all such holders at their last addresses as they appear upon the registry books of the Rights Agent or, prior to the
Distribution Date, on the registry books of the transfer agent for the Common Stock; provided, however, that failure
to give, or any defect in, any such notice shall not affect the validity of such redemption. Any notice which is mailed in the
manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each notice of redemption will state
the method by which the payment of the Redemption Price will be made. At the option of the Board of Directors, the Redemption
Price may be paid in cash to each Rights holder or by the issuance of shares (and, at the Corporation’s election pursuant
to Section 14(b) hereof, cash or depositary receipts in lieu of fractions of shares other than fractions which are integral
multiples of one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share) of Preferred Stock or Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to such
cash payment.

 

    31

     

    

 

(c)
In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the date of this Rights Agreement (i) pay any dividend on Common Stock in
shares of Common Stock; (ii) subdivide or split the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (iii)
combine or consolidate the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or effect a reverse split of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock; or (iv) combine or consolidate the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number
of shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with
a consolidation or merger in which the Corporation is the continuing or surviving corporation), then, and in each such event,
the Redemption Price shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the foregoing.

 

(d)
The Corporation may, at its option, discharge all of its obligations with respect to any redemption of the Rights by (i) issuing
a press release announcing the manner of redemption of the Rights and (ii) mailing payment of the Redemption Price to the
registered holders of the Rights at their last addresses as they appear on the registry books of the Rights Agent or, prior to
the Distribution Date , on the registry books of the transfer agent for the Common Stock, and upon such action, all outstanding
Rights Certificates shall be null and void without any further action by the Corporation.

 

Section
24.Notice of Proposed Actions.

 

(a)
If the Corporation shall after the Distribution Date propose (i) to pay any dividend payable in stock of any class to the
holders of its Preferred Stock or to make any other distribution to the holders of its Preferred Stock (other than a regular quarterly
cash dividend); (ii) to offer to the holders of its Preferred Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or to purchase any
additional shares of Preferred Stock or shares of stock of any class or any other securities, rights or options; (iii) to
effect any reclassification of its Preferred Stock (other than a reclassification involving only the subdivision of outstanding
Preferred Stock ); (iv) to effect any consolidation or merger into or with any other Person, or to effect any sale or other
transfer (or to permit one or more of its Subsidiaries to effect any sale or other transfer), in one or more transactions, of
50% or more of the assets or Earning Power of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to any other Person; (v) to
effect the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation; or (vi) to declare or pay any dividend on the Common
Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or to effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the Common Stock (by reclassification
or otherwise than by payment of dividends in shares of Common Stock), then, in each such case, the Corporation shall give to each
holder of a Rights Certificate and the Rights Agent, in accordance with Section 25, a notice of such proposed action,
which shall specify the record date for the purposes of such stock dividend, or distribution of rights or warrants, or the date
on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding-up is to take place
and the date of participation therein by the holders of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock or both, if any such date is to be
fixed, and such notice shall be so given in the case of any action covered by clause (i) or (ii) above at least ten
days prior to the record date for determining holders of the Preferred Stock for purposes of such action, and in the case of any
such other action, at least 10 days prior to the date of the taking of such proposed action or the date of participation therein
by the holders of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock or both, whichever shall be the earlier. The failure to give notice required
by this Section 24 or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the action taken by the Corporation
or the vote upon any such action.

 

    32

     

    

 

(b)
The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after a Stock Acquisition Date, give to each holder of a Rights Certificate, in
accordance with Section 25, a notice that describes the transaction in which the a Person became an Acquiring Person
and the consequences of the transaction to holders of Rights under Section 11(a)(ii).

Section
26.Supplements and Amendments.

 

For
as long as the Rights are then redeemable, the Corporation may in its sole and absolute discretion, and the Rights Agent shall
if the Corporation so directs, supplement or amend any provision of this Agreement without the approval of any holders of the
Rights. At any time when the Rights are not then redeemable, the Corporation may, and the Rights Agent shall if the Corporation
so directs, supplement or amend this Rights Agreement without the approval of any holders of Rights Certificates (i) to cure any
ambiguity, (ii) to correct or supplement any provision contained, herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other
provisions herein or (iii) to change or supplement the provisions hereunder in any manner which the Corporation may deem necessary
or desirable, provided that no such supplement or amendment pursuant to this clause (iv) shall materially adversely affect the
interest of the holders of Rights Certificates. Upon the delivery of a certificate from an appropriate officer of the Corporation
which states that the proposed supplement or amendment is in compliance with the terms of this Section 26, the Rights Agent
shall execute such supplement or amendment.

 

Section
27.Exchange.

 

(a)
The Board of Directors of the Corporation may, at its option, at any time after any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, exchange
all or part of the then outstanding and exercisable Rights (which shall not include Rights that have become void pursuant to the
provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) for shares of Common Stock at an exchange ratio of one share per Right, appropriately
adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date hereof (such exchange ratio
being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Ratio”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of
Directors shall not be empowered to effect such exchange at any time after any Person (other than an Exempt Person), together
with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, becomes the Beneficial Owner of 50% or more of the Corporation’s Common
Stock then-outstanding.

 

(b)
Immediately upon the action of the Board of Directors of the Corporation ordering the exchange of any Rights pursuant to paragraph
(a) of this Section 27 and without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise such Rights shall terminate
and the only right thereafter of a holder of such Rights shall be to receive that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
number of such Rights held by such holder multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. The Corporation shall promptly give public notice
of any such exchange; provided, however, that the failure to give, or any defect in, such notice shall not affect
the validity of such exchange. The Corporation promptly shall mail a notice of any such exchange to all of the holders of such
Rights at their last addresses as they appear upon the registry books of the Rights Agent. Any notice which is mailed in the manner
herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each such notice of exchange will state
the method by which the exchange of the shares of Common Stock for Rights will be effected and, in the event of any partial exchange,
the number of Rights which will be exchanged. Any partial exchange shall be effected pro rata based on the number of Rights (other
than Rights which have become void pursuant to the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) held by each holder of Rights.

(c)
In the event that there shall not be sufficient shares of Common Stock issued but not outstanding or authorized but unissued to
permit any exchange of Rights as contemplated in accordance with this Section 27, the Corporation shall take all such action
as may be necessary to authorize additional shares of Common Stock for issuance upon exchange of the Rights.

 

(d)
The Corporation shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock or to distribute certificates which evidence
fractional shares. In lieu of such fractional shares, the Corporation shall pay to the registered holders of the Rights Certificates
with regard to which such fractional shares of Common Stock would otherwise be issuable an amount in cash equal to the same fraction
of the current market value of a whole share of Common Stock. For the purposes of this paragraph (d), the current market value
of a whole share of Common Stock shall be the closing price of a share of Common Stock for the Trading Day immediately prior to
the date of exchange pursuant to this Section 27.

SUMMARY
OF RIGHTS TO PURCHASE CLASS A PREFERRED STOCK, SERIES ONE

 

On
August 29, 2018, the Board of Directors of TSR, INC. (the “Corporation”) declared a dividend distribution
of one preferred stock purchase right for each outstanding share of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common
Stock”), of the Corporation held by stockholders of record on August 29, 2018 (the “Record Date”).
Each Right entities the registered holder to purchase from the Corporation one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share of preferred
stock of the Corporation, designated as Class A Preferred Stock, Series One (the “Preferred Stock”)
at a price of $24.78 per one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share (the “Exercise Price”). The description
and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”), dated as of August
29, 2018, between the Corporation and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Rights Agent (the “Rights
Agent”).

 

As
discussed below, initially the Rights will not be exercisable, certificates will not be sent to stockholders and the Rights will
automatically trade with the Common Stock.

 

The
Rights, unless earlier redeemed by the Board of Directors, become exercisable upon the close of business on the day (the “Distribution
Date”) which is the earlier of (i) the tenth day following the first date (the “Stock Acquisition Date”)
on which there is a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons, with certain exceptions set
forth below, has acquired beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock (an “Acquiring
Person”) or such earlier or later date (not beyond the thirtieth day after the Stock Acquisition Date) as the Board
of Directors may determine or (ii) the tenth business day (or such later date as may be determined by the Board of Directors prior
to such time as any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person) after the date of the commencement
or announcement of a person’s or group’s intention to commence a tender or exchange offer the consummation of which
would result in the ownership of 5% or more of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock (even if no shares are actually
purchased pursuant to such offer); prior thereto, the Rights will not be exercisable, will not be represented by a separate certificate,
and will not be transferable apart from the Common Stock, but will instead be evidenced, (i) with respect to any of the shares
of Common Stock held in uncertificated book-entry form (a “Book-Entry”) outstanding as of the Record
Date, by such Book-Entry and (ii) with respect to the shares of Common Stock evidenced by Common Stock certificates outstanding
as of the Record Date, by such Common Stock certificate, together with a copy of this Summary of Rights.

 

    A - 1

     

    

 

An
Acquiring Person does not include (A) the Corporation, (B) any Subsidiary of the Corporation, (C) any employee benefit plan or
employee stock plan of the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation, or any trust or other entity organized, appointed,
established or holding Common Stock for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan, (D) any person or group whose ownership of
5% or more of the Corporation’s then-outstanding shares of Common Stock results solely from (i) any action or transaction
or transactions approved by the Corporation’s Board of Directors before such person or group became an Acquiring Person
or (ii) a reduction in the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock pursuant to a transaction
or transactions approved by the Corporation’s Board of Directors (provided that any person or group that does not become
an Acquiring Person by reason of clause (i) or (ii) above shall become an Acquiring Person upon acquisition of any additional
shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock unless such acquisition of additional Common Stock will not result in such person
or group becoming an Acquiring Person by reason of such clause (i) or (ii)), (E) any Person that the Board of Directors determines
is exempt from the Rights Agreement, which determination shall be made in the sole and absolute discretion of the Board of Directors,
or (F) any Person who or which, at the time of the first public announcement of the Rights Agreement, is a Beneficial Owner of
5% or more of the Corporation’s Common Stock then outstanding (a “Grandfathered Stockholder”);
provided, however, that if a Grandfathered Stockholder becomes, after such time, the Beneficial Owner of any additional
shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock (regardless of whether, thereafter or as a result thereof, there is an increase,
decrease or no change in the percentage of shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock then outstanding beneficially owned
by such Grandfathered Stockholder) then such Grandfathered Stockholder shall be deemed to be an Acquiring Person unless, upon
such acquisition of Beneficial Ownership of additional shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock, such Person is not the
Beneficial Owner of 5% or more of the Corporation’s Common Stock then outstanding; provided, further, that
upon the first decrease of a Grandfathered Stockholder’s Beneficial Ownership below 5%, such Grandfathered Stockholder shall
cease to be a Grandfathered Stockholder and this clause (ii) shall have no further force or effect with respect to such Person.
For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that after the time of the first public announcement of this Rights Agreement, any agreement,
arrangement or understanding pursuant to which any Grandfathered Stockholder is deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of shares of
the Corporation’s Common Stock expires, terminates or no longer confers any benefit to or imposes any obligation on the
Grandfathered Stockholder, any direct or indirect replacement, extension or substitution of such agreement, arrangement or understanding
with respect to the same or different shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock that confers Beneficial Ownership of shares
of the Corporation’s Common Stock shall be considered the acquisition of Beneficial Ownership of additional shares of the
Corporation’s Common Stock by the Grandfathered Stockholder and render such Grandfathered Stockholder an Acquiring Person
for purposes of this Rights Agreement unless, upon such acquisition of Beneficial Ownership of additional shares of the Corporation’s
Common Stock, such Person is not the Beneficial Owner of 5% or more of the Corporation’s Common Stock then outstanding.

 

    A - 2

     

    

 

“Beneficial
Ownership” shall include any securities such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates (a) beneficially
owns, directly or indirectly, within the meaning of Rules 13d-3 or 13d-5 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the “Exchange Act”), (b) has the right to acquire or vote pursuant to any agreement,
arrangement or understanding (except under limited circumstances), (c) which are directly or indirectly beneficially owned
by any other Person with which such Person has any agreement, arrangement or understanding for the purpose of acquiring, holding
or voting such securities, or obtaining, changing or influencing control of the Company, or with whom such Person is acting in
concert or (d) in respect of which such Person has a derivative position.

 

Until
the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights), new Common Stock certificates issued after August 29,
2018 will contain a legend incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference. Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption
or expiration of the Rights), transfer on the Corporation’s direct registration system of any Common Stock represented by
a Book-Entry or a certificate outstanding as of August 29, 2018, and, in each case, with or without a copy of this Summary of
Rights attached thereto, will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Stock represented by such
Book-Entry or certificate. As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, separate certificates evidencing the Rights
(“Rights Certificates”) will be mailed to holders of record of the Common Stock as of the close of business
on the Distribution Date and such separate Rights Certificates alone will evidence the Rights from and after the Distribution
Date.

 

The
Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date. Unless earlier redeemed by the Corporation as described below, the Rights
will expire at the close of business on August 29, 2021 (the “Expiration Date”) (or, if the Distribution Date shall
have occurred before August 29, 2021, at the close of business on the 90th day following the Distribution Date).

 

The
Preferred Stock is non-redeemable and, unless otherwise provided in connection with the creation of a subsequent series of preferred
stock (i) subordinate to any other series of the Corporation’s preferred stock and (ii) senior to the Common Stock. The
Preferred Stock may not be issued except upon exercise of Rights. Each outstanding share of Preferred Stock will be entitled to
receive when, as and if declared, a quarterly dividend in an amount equal to (i) 100 times the cash dividends declared on the
Corporation’s Common Stock, and (ii) a preferential cash dividend, if any, in preference to holders of Common Stock in an
amount equal to $50.00 per share of Preferred Stock less the per share amount of all cash dividends declared on the Preferred
Stock pursuant to clause (i) since the immediately preceding quarterly dividend payment date. In addition, Preferred Stock is
entitled to 100 times any noncash dividends (other than dividends payable in equity securities) declared on the Common Stock,
in like kind. In the event of the liquidation of the Corporation, the holders of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive,
for each share of Preferred Stock, a payment in an amount equal to the greater of $1.00 per one one-hundredth of a share plus
accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon or 100 times the payment made per share of Common Stock. Each share of
Preferred Stock will have 100 votes, voting together with the Common Stock. In the event of any merger, consolidation or other
transaction in which Common Stock is exchanged, each share of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive 100 times the amount
received per share of Common Stock. The rights of Preferred Stock as to dividends, liquidation and voting are protected by anti-dilution
provisions. If the dividends accrued on the Preferred Stock for four or more quarterly dividend periods, whether consecutive or
not, shall not have been declared and paid or irrevocably set aside for payment, the holder of record of the Preferred Stock of
the Corporation of all series (including the Preferred Stock) will have the right to elect two members to the Corporation’s
Board of Directors.

 

    A - 3

     

    

 

The
number of shares of Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the Rights is subject to certain adjustments from time to time in
the event of a stock dividend on, or a subdivision or combination of, the Common Stock. The Exercise Price for the Rights is subject
to adjustment in the event of extraordinary distributions of cash or other property to holders of Common Stock.

 

Unless
the Rights are earlier redeemed, in the event that, after the time that a Person becomes an Acquiring Person, the Corporation
were to be acquired in a merger or other business combination (in which any shares of Common Stock are changed into or exchanged
for other securities or assets) or more than 50% of the assets or Earning Power (as defined in the Rights Agreement) of the Corporation
and its subsidiaries (taken as a whole) were to be sold or transferred in one or a series of related transactions, the Rights
Agreement provides that proper provision will be made so that each holder of record, other than the Acquiring Person, of a Right
will from and after such date have the right to receive, upon payment of the Exercise Price, that number of shares of common stock
of the acquiring company having a market value at the time of such transaction equal to two times the Exercise Price.

 

In
addition, unless the Rights are earlier redeemed, in the event that a person or group becomes an Acquiring Person, the Rights
Agreement provides that proper provision will be made so that each holder of record of a Right, other than the Acquiring Person
(whose Rights will thereupon become null and void), will thereafter have the right to receive, upon payment of the Exercise Price,
that number of one one-hundredths of a share of Preferred Stock having a market value at the time of the transaction equal to
two times the Exercise Price (such market value to be determined with reference to the market value of the Corporation’s
Common Stock as provided in the Rights Agreement).

 

At
any time after any person or group becomes an Acquiring Person and prior to the acquisition by such person or group of 50% or
more of the outstanding voting stock, the Board of Directors of the Corporation may exchange the Rights (other than Rights owned
by such person or group which will have become void), in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one share of Common Stock per
Right (subject to adjustment).

 

Fractions
of shares of Preferred Stock (other than fractions which are integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a share) may, at the election
of the Corporation, be evidenced by depositary receipts. The Corporation may also issue cash in lieu of fractional shares which
are not integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a share.

 

At
any time on or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the tenth day after the Stock Acquisition Date (or such later
date as a majority of the Board of Directors may determine) or (ii) the Expiration Date, the Corporation may redeem the Rights
in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.01 per Right (the “Redemption Price”). Immediately upon
the effective time of the action of the Board of Directors of the Corporation authorizing redemption of the Rights, the right
to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the Redemption Price.

 

    A - 4

     

    

 

For
as long as the Rights are then redeemable, the Corporation may, amend the Rights in any manner, including an amendment to extend
the time period in which the Rights may be redeemed. At any time when the Rights are not then redeemable, the Corporation may
amend the Rights in any manner that does not materially adversely affect the interests of holders of the Rights as such.

 

Until
a Right is exercised, the holder, as such, will have no rights as a stockholder of the Corporation, including, without limitation,
the right to vote or to receive dividends.

 

A
copy of the Rights Agreement will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to a current report on Form
8-K. A copy of the Rights Agreement is available free of charge from the Corporation. This summary description of the Rights does
not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rights Agreement which is incorporated in this
summary description herein by reference.

Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, and pursuant to the Act the Board of Directors on August 29, 2018 adopted the following
resolution which creates a series of thirty thousand (30,000) shares of Preferred Stock designated as Class A Preferred Stock,
Series One.

 

RESOLVED,
that pursuant to the authority vested in the Board of Directors of the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of its Certificate
of Incorporation, as amended, a series of Preferred Stock of the Corporation be, and hereby is, created and that the designation
and amount thereof and the voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of the shares
of such series, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof are as follows:

 

Section
1. Designation and Amount. The shares of such series shall be designated as “Class A Preferred Stock, Series One”
(the “Series One Preferred Stock”) and the number of shares constituting such series shall be thirty thousand (30,000).

 

    C - 1

     

    

 

Section
2. Dividends and Distributions.

 

(A)
Subject to the provisions for adjustment hereinafter set forth, the holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall be entitled
to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, (i) cash dividends
in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to 100 times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends declared

shall, at any time after the issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series One Preferred Stock, make any distribution
on the shares of Common Stock of the Corporation, whether by way of a dividend or a reclassification of stock, a recapitalization,
reorganization or partial liquidation of the Corporation or otherwise, which is payable in cash or any debt security, debt instrument,
real or personal property or any other property (other than cash dividends subject to the immediately preceding sentence, a distribution
of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Corporation or a distribution of rights or warrants to acquire any such
share, including any debt security convertible into or exchangeable for any such share, at a price less than the Fair Market Value
(as hereinafter defined) of such share), then, and in each such event the Corporation shall simultaneously pay on each then outstanding
share of Series One Preferred Stock of the Corporation a distribution, in like kind, of 100 times such distribution paid on a
share of Common Stock (subject to the provisions for adjustment hereinafter set forth). The dividends and distributions on the
Series One Preferred Stock to which holders thereof are entitled pursuant to clause (i) of the first sentence of this paragraph
and pursuant to the second sentence of this paragraph are hereinafter referred to as “Participating Dividends” and
the multiple of such cash and noncash dividends on the Common Stock applicable to the determination of the Participating Dividends,
which shall be 100 initially but shall be adjusted from time to time as hereinafter provided, is hereinafter referred to as the
“Dividend Multiple.” In the event the Corporation shall at any time after August 29, 2018 (the “Effective Date”)
declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision
or split or a combination, consolidation or reverse split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater or lesser number
of shares of Common Stock, or issue any of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock (including any such reclassification
in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Corporation is the continuing or surviving corporation), then in each
such case the Dividend Multiple thereafter applicable to the determination of the amount of Participating Dividends which holders
of shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive shall be the Dividend Multiple applicable immediately prior
to such event multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior
to such event.

 

(B)
The Corporation shall declare each Participating Dividend at the same time it declares any cash or non-cash dividend or distribution
on the Common Stock in respect of which a Participating Dividend is required to be paid. No cash or noncash dividend or distribution
on the Common Stock in respect of which a Participating Dividend is required to be paid shall be paid or set aside for payment
on the Common Stock unless a Participating Dividend in respect of such dividend or distribution on the Common Stock shall be simultaneously
paid, or set aside for payment, on the Series One Preferred Stock.

 

(C)
Preferential Dividends shall begin to accrue on outstanding shares of Series One Preferred Stock from the Quarterly Dividend Payment
Date next preceding the date of issuance of any shares of Series One Preferred Stock. Accrued but unpaid Preferential Dividends
shall cumulate but shall not bear interest. Preferential Dividends paid on the shares of Series One Preferred Stock in an amount
less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share
basis among all such shares at the time outstanding.

 

    C - 2

     

    

 

Section
3. Voting Rights. The holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:

 

(A)
Subject to the provisions for adjustment hereinafter set forth, each share of Series One Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder
thereof to 100 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation. The number of votes which a holder
of Series One Preferred Stock is entitled to cast, as the same may be adjusted from time to time as hereinafter provided, is hereinafter
referred to as the “Vote Multiple.” In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Effective Date declare
or pay any dividend on Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or split or a combination, consolidation
or reverse split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, or issue
any of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation
or merger in which the Corporation is the continuing or surviving corporation), then in each such case the Vote Multiple thereafter
applicable to the determination of the number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall
be entitled after such event shall be the Vote Multiple immediately prior to such event multiplied by a fraction the numerator
of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the
number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

 

(B)
Except as otherwise provided herein, in the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, or Amended and Restated By-Laws, as amended,
the holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock shall vote together as one class
on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation.

 

(C)
In the event that the Preferential Dividends accrued on the Series One Preferred Stock for four or more quarterly dividend periods,
whether consecutive or not, shall not have been declared and paid or set apart for payment, the holders of record of Preferred
Stock of the Corporation of all series (including the Series One Preferred Stock), other than any series in respect of which such
right is expressly withheld by the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, or the authorizing resolutions included in the Certificate
of Designations therefor, shall have the right, at the next meeting of stockholders called for the election of directors, to elect
two members to the Board of Directors, which directors shall be in addition to the number required by the Amended and Restated
By-Laws prior to such event, to serve until the next Annual Meeting and until their successors are elected and qualified or their
earlier resignation, removal or incapacity or until such earlier time as all accrued and unpaid Preferential Dividends upon the
outstanding shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall have been paid (or irrevocably set aside for payment) in full. The holders
of shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall continue to have the right to elect directors as provided by the immediately preceding
sentence until all accrued and unpaid Preferential Dividends upon the outstanding shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall have
been paid (or set aside for payment) in full. Such directors may be removed and replaced by such stockholders, and vacancies in
such directorships may be filled only by such stockholders (or by the remaining directors elected by such stockholders, if there
be any) in the manner permitted by law; provided, however, that any such action by stockholders shall be taken at a meeting of
stockholders and shall not be taken by written consent thereto.

 

    C - 3

     

    

 

(D)
Except as otherwise required by the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, or the Amended and Restated By-laws, as amended,
or set forth herein, holders of Series One Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be
required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set forth herein) for the taking of any
corporate action.

 

Section
4. Certain Restrictions.

 

(A)
Whenever Preferential Dividends or Participating Dividends are in arrears or the Corporation shall be in default of payment thereof,
thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid Preferential Dividends and Participating Dividends, whether or not declared, on shares
of Series One Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been paid or set aside for payment in full, and in addition to any and all
other rights which any holder of shares of Series One Preferred Stock may have in such circumstances, the Corporation shall not:

 

(i)
declare or pay dividends on, make any other distributions on, or redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration, any
shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series One Preferred
Stock;

 

(ii)
declare or pay dividends on or make any other distributions on any shares of stock ranking on a parity as to dividends with the
Series One Preferred Stock, unless dividends are paid ratably on the Series One Preferred Stock and all such parity stock on which
dividends are payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then entitled
if the full dividends accrued thereon were to be paid;

 

(iii)
except as permitted by subparagraph (iv) of this paragraph 4(A), redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares
of any stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series One Preferred
Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such parity stock in
exchange for shares of any stock of the Corporation ranking junior (both as to dividends and upon liquidation, dissolution or
winding up) to the Series One Preferred Stock; or

 

(iv)
purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series One Preferred Stock, or any shares of stock ranking on a
parity with the Series One Preferred Stock (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up), except in
accordance with a purchase offer made to all holders of such shares upon such terms as the Board of Directors, after consideration
of the respective annual dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences of the respective series and classes, shall
determine in good faith will result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series or classes.

 

(B)
The Corporation shall not permit any Subsidiary (as hereinafter defined) of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for
consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (A) of this Section 4, purchase
or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner. A “Subsidiary” of the Corporation shall mean any
corporation or other entity of which securities or other ownership interests having ordinary voting power sufficient to elect
a majority of the Board of Directors or other persons performing similar functions are Beneficially Owned, directly or indirectly,
by the Corporation or by any corporation or other entity that is otherwise controlled by the Corporation.

 

    C - 4

     

    

 

(C)
The Corporation shall not issue any shares of Series One Preferred Stock except upon exercise of Rights issued pursuant to that
certain Rights Agreement dated as of August 29, 2018 between the Corporation and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company,
a copy of which is on file with the Secretary of the Corporation at its principal executive office and shall be made available
to stockholders of record without charge upon written request therefor addressed to said Secretary. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, nothing contained in the provisions hereof shall prohibit or restrict the Corporation from issuing for any purpose,
any series of Preferred Stock with rights and privileges similar to, different from, or greater than, those of the Series One
Preferred Stock.

 

Section
5. Reacquired Shares. Any shares of Series One Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any
manner whatsoever shall be retired and canceled promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares upon their retirement
and cancellation shall become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series, and such shares
may be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock to be created by resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors.

 

Section
6. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the Corporation, no distribution shall be made (i) to the holders of shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or
upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series One Preferred Stock unless the holders of shares of Series One Preferred
Stock shall have received, subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided, (A) $100 ($1.00 per one one-hundredth of a share) plus
an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of such payment,
or (B) if greater than the amount specified in clause (i)(A) of this sentence, an amount equal to 100 times the aggregate amount
to be distributed per share to holders of Common Stock, as the same may be adjusted as hereinafter provided, and (ii) to the holders
of stock ranking on a parity upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up with the Series One Preferred Stock, unless simultaneously
therewith distributions are made ratably on the Series One Preferred Stock and all other shares of such parity stock in proportion
to the total amounts to which the holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock are entitled under clause (i)(A) of this sentence
and to which the holders of such parity shares are entitled, in each case upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up. The
amount to which holders of Series One Preferred Stock may be entitled upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation
pursuant to clause (i)(B) of the foregoing sentence is hereinafter referred to as the “Participating Liquidation Amount”
and the multiple of the amount to be distributed to holders of shares of Common Stock upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of the Corporation applicable pursuant to said clause to the determination of the Participating Liquidation Amount, as said
multiple may be adjusted from time to time as hereinafter provided, is hereinafter referred to as the “Liquidation Multiple.”
In this event the Corporation shall at any time after the Effective Date declare or pay any dividend on Common Stock payable in
shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or split or a combination, consolidation or reverse split of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, or issue any of its capital stock in a reclassification
of the Common Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Corporation
is the continuing or surviving corporation, then in each such case the Liquidation Multiple thereafter applicable to the determination
of the Participating Liquidation Amount to which holders of Series One Preferred Stock shall be entitled after such event shall
be the Liquidation Multiple applicable immediately prior to such event multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares
of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

 

    C - 5

     

    

 

Section
7. Certain Reclassifications and Other Events.

 

(A)
In the event that holders of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation receive after the Effective Date, in respect of their shares
of Common Stock any share of capital stock of the Corporation (other than any share of Common Stock of the Corporation), whether
by way of reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization, dividend or other distribution or otherwise (a “Transaction”),
then, and in each such event the dividend rights, voting rights and rights upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the Corporation of the shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall be adjusted so that after such event the holders of Series One
Preferred Stock shall be entitled, in respect of each share of Series One Preferred Stock held, in addition to such rights in
respect thereof to which such holder was entitled immediately prior to such adjustment, to (i) such additional dividends as equal
the Dividend Multiple in effect immediately prior to such Transaction multiplied by the additional dividends which the holder
of a share of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive by virtue of the receipt in the Transaction of such capital stock, (ii)
such additional voting rights as equal the Vote Multiple in effect immediately prior to such Transaction multiplied by the additional
voting rights which the holder of a share of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive by virtue of the receipt in the Transaction
of such capital stock and (iii) such additional distributions upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation as
equal the Liquidation Multiple in effect immediately prior to such Transaction multiplied by the additional amount which the holder
of a share of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation by virtue
of the receipt in the Transaction of such capital stock, as the case may be, all as provided by the terms of such capital stock.

 

(B)
In the event that holders of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation receive after the Effective Date, in respect of their shares
of Common Stock any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock (including as such a right, for all purposes of this paragraph,
any security convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock) at a purchase price per share less than the Fair Market Value
(as hereinafter defined) of a share of Common Stock on the date of issuance of such right or warrant, then and in each such event
the dividend rights, voting rights and rights upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation of the shares
of Series One Preferred Stock shall each be adjusted so that after such event the Dividend Multiple, the Vote Multiple and the
Liquidation Multiple shall each be the product of the Dividend Multiple, the Vote Multiple and the Liquidation Multiple, as the
case may be, in effect immediately prior to such event multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such issuance of rights or warrants plus the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock which could be acquired upon exercise in full of all such rights or warrants and the denominator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such issuance of rights or warrants plus the number of shares
of Common Stock which could be purchased, at the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the time of such issuance, by the maximum
aggregate consideration payable upon exercise in full of all such rights or warrants.

 

    C - 6

     

    

 

(C)
In the event that holders of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation receive after the Effective Date in respect of their shares
of Common Stock any right or warrant to purchase capital stock of the Corporation (other than shares of Common Stock), including
as such a right, for all purposes of this paragraph, any security convertible into or exchangeable for capital stock of the Corporation,
(other than Common Stock), at a purchase price per share less than the Fair Market Value of such shares of capital stock on the
date of issuance of such right or warrant, then and in each such event the dividend rights, voting rights and rights upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation of the shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall each be adjusted so that after
such event each holder of a share of Series One Preferred Stock shall be entitled, in respect of each share of Series One Preferred
Stock held, in addition to such rights in respect thereof to which such holder was entitled immediately prior to such event, to
receive (i) such additional dividends as equal the Dividend Multiple in effect immediately prior to such event multiplied, first,
by the additional dividends to which the holder of a share of Common Stock shall be entitled upon exercise of such right or warrant
by virtue of the capital stock which could be acquired upon such exercise and multiplied again by the Discount Fraction (as hereinafter
defined) and (ii) such additional voting rights as equal the Vote Multiple in effect immediately prior to such event multiplied,
first, by the additional voting rights to which the holder of a share of Common Stock shall be entitled upon exercise of such
right or warrant by virtue of the capital stock which could be acquired upon such exercise and multiplied again by the Discount
Fraction and (iii) such additional distribution upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation as equal the Liquidation
Multiple in effect immediately prior to such event multiplied, first, by the additional amount which the holder of a share of
Common Stock shall be entitled to receive upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation upon exercise of such
right or warrant by virtue of the capital stock which could be acquired upon such exercise and multiplied again by the Discount
Fraction. For purposes of this paragraph, the “Discount Fraction” shall be a fraction the numerator of which shall
be the difference between the Fair Market Value of a share of the capital stock subject to a right or wan-ant distributed to holders
of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation as contemplated by this paragraph immediately after the distribution thereof and
the purchase price per share for such share of capital stock pursuant to such right or warrant and the denominator of which shall
be the Fair Market Value of a share of such capital stock immediately after the distribution of such right or warrant.

 

    C - 7

     

    

 

(D)
For purposes of this Certificate of Designations, the “Fair Market Value” of a share of capital stock of the Corporation
(including a share of Common Stock) on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily closing price per share thereof
over the 30 consecutive Trading Days (as such term is hereinafter defined) immediately prior to such date; provided, however,
that, in the event that such Fair Market Value of any such share of capital stock is determined during a period which includes
any date that is within 30 Trading Days after (i) the ex-dividend date for a dividend or distribution on stock payable in shares
of such stock or securities convertible into shares of such stock, or (ii) the effective date of any subdivision, split, combination,
consolidation, reverse stock split or reclassification of such stock, then, and in each such case, the Fair Market Value shall
be appropriately adjusted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation to take into account ex-dividend or post-effective date
trading. The closing price for any day shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case, no such sale takes place on such
day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way as reported in the applicable transaction reporting system with
respect to securities listed on the principal national securities exchange on which the shares are listed or admitted to trading
or, if the shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price or, if not
so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices in the., over-the counter market, as reported by the NASDAQ Capital
Market or such other system then in use, or if on any such date the shares are not quoted by any such organization, the average
of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the shares selected by the
Board of Directors of the Corporation. The term “Trading Day” shall mean a day in which the principal national securities
exchange on which the shares are listed or admitted to trading is open for the transaction of business or, if the shares are not
listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, on which the any such national securities exchange as may be
selected by the Board of Directors of the Corporation is open. If the shares are not publicly held or not so listed or traded
on any day within the period of 30 Trading Days applicable to the determination of Fair Market Value thereof as aforesaid, “Fair
Market Value” shall mean the fair market value thereof per share as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of
the Corporation. In either case referred to in the foregoing sentence, the determination of Fair Market Value shall be described
in a statement filed with the Secretary of the Corporation.

 

Section
8. Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other
transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other
property, then in any such case each outstanding share of Series One Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged
for or changed into the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or other property (payable in like kind), as the case
may be, for which or into which each share of Common Stock is changed or exchanged multiplied by the highest of the Vote Multiple,
the Dividend Multiple or the Liquidation Multiple in effect immediately prior to such event.

 

Section
9. Effective Time of Adjustments.

 

(A)
Adjustments to the Series One Preferred Stock required by the provisions hereof shall be effective as of the time at which the
event requiring such adjustments occurs.

 

(B)
The Corporation shall give prompt written notice to each holder of a share of Series One Preferred Stock of the effect of any
adjustment to the voting rights, dividend rights or rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation of such
shares required by the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the failure of the Corporation to give such
notice shall not affect the validity of or the force or effect of or the requirement for such adjustment.

 

    C - 8

     

    

 

Section
10. No Redemption. The shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable at the option of the Corporation or
any holder thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence of this Section, the Corporation may acquire shares of Series One Preferred
Stock in any other manner permitted by law, the provisions hereof and the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Corporation.

 

Section
11. Ranking. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Corporation or a Certificate
of Designations relating to a series of preferred stock of the Corporation established after the issuance of any share of Series
One Preferred Stock or any right, warrant, or option providing for the issuance thereof, the Series One Preferred Stock shall
rank, as to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets on liquidation, dissolution or winding up, (i) junior to all
other series of the Corporation’s Preferred Stock and (iv) senior to the Common Stock.

 

Section
12. Amendment. The provisions hereof and the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Corporation shall not be
amended in any manner which would adversely affect the rights, privileges or powers of the Series One Preferred Stock without,
in addition to any other vote of stockholders required by law, the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds or more of the
outstanding shares of Series One Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class.

 

Section
13. Fractional Shares. Series One Preferred Stock may be issued in fractions of a share (in one one-hundredths (1/100th)
of a share and integral multiples thereof) that shall entitle the holder thereof, in proportion to such holder’s fractional
shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and have the benefit of all other rights of
holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock.

 

IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed and subscribed this Certificate of Designations and do affirm the foregoing as true under
the penalties of perjury this 29th day of August, 2018.
